bapa: indefatigable love

Bapa: chapter 28 (The Party)

Bose POV:

We arrived at the party around the corner of the house. I always love it when Miles teleports us, it's the only way I can hold Chapa's waist in the open. We will tell people about us, well eventually... she said she's not fully ready yet and I respect that. She can take as much time as she needs. I know it's been difficult for her with relationships and a good, healthy teenage life after her tragic childhood.

We walk towards the house and see already a few people standing outside. One couple making out and probably having sex later this night, three girls looking drunk and smoking cigarettes a little too early, and a blonde girl on the phone probably talking to her boyfriend who she misses because he couldn't come. Not many people find me smart but I do have great intuitions.  I can already hear the loud music through the windows and doors and smell all the alcohol and drugs. Exactly how it went in my nightmare from a couple days ago.

You can already tell only rich people live in this district. Michael's house is big and very modern.

"I haven't been here for ages." Mika says. That's right, their mom is their mom's old friend. They probably used to come here a lot when they were younger.

"This guy got a lot of money in its pockets." Chapa says.  

"Yeah his father got his own company, that's why." Miles says as we make our way to the door.

The music grows louder once we open the door and walk inside. Miles and Mika put their jackets on a hanger while I'm still figuring out how to survive tonight. Why did I even show up? Maybe Ethan, Ryan and David won't be here tonight. That'll be much better.

We walk through drunk teenagers around 15 and 16 years old until we reach a big living room that's empty. There's a big crowd of people dancing and singing. Suddenly I see someone walking towards us.

"Yo Miles, glad you could come." I assume this is Michael. Miles and Mika greet him first. He looks at Chapa and then me and says: "And you brought your friends! Great man. Nice to meet you, I'm Michael." he says.

"Nice to meet you too, I'm Bose." I say and offer him a smile.

"Hello, I'm Chapa, thanks we could come with Miles." she says.

"Yeah of course, it's always a big pleasure to meet new people and especially when they're Miles' friends." Michael says. He sounds like a good guy who respects everyone. I get it why Miles and Michael are good friends.

"Well, there's the kitchen, you can grab something to drink or eat, in the hallway is the toilet, you can go upstairs but no sex in my parents- or my bedroom. You can always do your nasty shit in the other bedrooms or my brother's bedroom since he's a total dick and deserves it." Michael smiles. This actually made me laugh.

"Oh and don't throw up inside the house please. I'd appreciate that." he goes on.

"We won't don't worry." Miles says and laughs.

"Alright have fun y'all." Michael says and walks away towards the dance floor.

Suddenly Miles, Mika and Chapa also walk up to the dance floor. The three of them drag me with them.

...

It's now 9PM. We're resting with a bunch of people on the couch in the other living room. We danced, sang, did a couple games, and luckily there was no sign of any of my bullies yet. Good.

Mika and Miles caught up with some of their other friends and Chapa recognized some of her old friends too. I did recognize some people but those were never my friends or even close to friends. I might have sat next to them in class but that's it.
I don't really enjoy myself here. I hate these kind of people, they used to talk about me behind my back and say nasty stuff about others and also me. I just don't feel very comfortable here.
