"After a few minutes,I decided to walk back into the lion's den(.//. probably hoping to tame it this time .//.), I went in but things felt different, the atmosphere was cool and soothing.
"Ready to go again?";she asked with a smile on her face(.//.which I found rather terrifying than comforting.//.),
Oh um!..yes;I responded shyly, alright then let's begin and a 5-6-7-8.......
The dance practice lasted 30 minutes but in the moment it felt timeless like we could just keep dancing without noticing the world around us and that's what got me wondering what changed?
A few minutes ago,we couldn't move forward with the basic steps but yet! just now it's like we took five steps into the next move every single moment.
She hasn't said a word for quite a while, looking at her i suppose she also couldn't really understand what happened but I'm just glad that went well.
"You didn't mention you could dance!;she finally spoke"
"I remember saying I couldn't";I responded
"What do you mean?"
"Are you telling me that with everything that happened here, you're still going to keep claiming not being able to dance? really! who are you trying to fool?";(.//.this time she looks offended.//.)
"Whoa!whoa!"
"Calm down will you?...I really don't know how to dance, honestly all this while I thought it was you.ok?"
"I thought it was something you were doing":I protested
"Something I was doing?,so what? you think I could control someone to dance? much less a guy?"
"You're either foolish or just bad at lying";She said walking out
I was left alone with the frustration I had bottled up in me,but I couldn't pour it out on her,so I set out to the basketball practise hoping Kai would be there,so I'd pour out my anger on him but luckily for him,he wasn't!,so I set out to go home only to step out of the school gate and remember i didn't bring my bike along, this ignited my frustration a lot more but I had to hold it in,i got in the cab and got home.
I walked into the garage to check on my bike,but saw my dad's car parked, which got me wondering,why he's home so early,I left the garage and walked into the mansion,hey dear!how was your day?; asked my mom as she was pulling me in for a hug,
fine mom!;I responded as I settled for the hug.
"Wait mom,what's going on?","why the sudden early homecoming?"
Oh you mean your dad?,well the family dinner with the Gilberts(Ivory's family) tonight is a very important one so your dad's just making sure he's prepared
"Prepared for what exactly?", "a business deal?"
no sweetie! it's something much more precious than that.
"Huh?what can be more important than business to dad";I said groaning
"You know what?why don't you just go take a bath,get dressed and come back down,alright?"
Ok mom;I replied
This feeling was comforting,
the steam bath was soothing, honestly might be the best feeling I have had today apart from the "dan"...I jumped at the thought,I couldn't bring myself to complete the word,
"although remembering it reignited the sparks of frustration I had" but nevertheless it was the truth.
"Kingsley!get down here son,our guests are present";my dad called.
I hurriedly dried my body,I checked my closet for the clothes I had prepared to put on,
but instead I saw a rather more pleasing outfit than the one i had prepared,it didn't take much time to realise that my mom definitely interfered.
