Kylie's Pov"
As the night sky appeared ,stars defined the London sky with each twinkle,The hotel's dining classy, surely left me drooling.
"Kyls,long time no see pal"Jake says from behind me while holding a glass of whisky.
"Yoh!!long time indeed, it's a pleasure to bump into you after all these years."Betsaleel adds in his very deep manly voice.
Brayden,Fross ,Keisha and Diana also sneak up on me from the left side.
"BOOM!WE GOT YOU BRO"they exclaim.I narrow my eyes at all my friends and embrace them in a hug.
"It's exactly 7pm sharp and here comes Thee thug ,Zak Slades looking like royalty in that black suit polished with a bow tie,not to mention those high class shoes Issh !MOOSE!Is surely stunning"I say causing everyone to gaze at my brother as he steps in the hotel hall.
"Hey everyone,Am I happy to see you all?!"Zak says raising a sarcastic brow.
We smile and just offer a toast in response.
"MAKE SOME NOISE FOR THE PARTY HOUSE!!!"DJ katel hits the 90s playlist.
Maintaining the peaceful yet fascinating atmosphere.Each and everyone have a dance partner but Me,So I approach the Empty table to eat my favorite chocolate vanilla ice-cream.
Suddenly I hear thunder outside, within a blink of an eye rain drops feel the room with peaceful sounds as they make rhythm with each drop on the hotel roof.
"EFFIE PAIGE!!"I exclaim while dropping the ice cream spoon from my hand.
My heart races as she makes her way into the hotel hall,her hair longer than last time,Curly and darker her eyes still innocent with each gaze.
She's dressed in a black sleeveless dress,her beauty glowing with each step closer as she approaches the receptionist.
My heart can't help but push me to approach her,but just before I could do so,The hotel lights are switched off .
Then Boom!they are switched on.
Fross Alvandro, dressed in London's most elegant grey suits makes his way to Effie."Ms.Paige you will be the end of me for you know how worried I was thinking we left you behind, instead it's you who left us🤦🏾♂️"He says while the two share glances of happiness.
My heart skips a beat thinking Effie and Fross have a thing going on. But my heart crushes at the sight of seeing thee Kai MacPherson approaching Effie with a bouquet of Red and purple roses together with a gift box.
"Awwwr,Kai you really didn't have to do this"Effie says to him in her sweet voice.
Anything for you my Love"He replies in his charming deep voice,His British accent only makes it better.
"I can't believe this,Effie and Kai no way ,If anything Effie is mine"I speak my mind out as my heart races.
"You mean, Effie could have been yours"Cane says from next to me.
"Yeah right, after cheating on her like some scrap"Diana adds
"She was never yours"Brayden adds
"Yep, you screwed up younger! you screwed up!"Zak also adds.
I walk out on them in anger as I open a wine bottle.
"Drinking alcohol won't change the fact that you cheated the poor girl, you literally toyed with her emotions..."Fross says from behind me.
"Just back off ,you are no less than me"I Flash at him.
Fross narrows his eyes at me"Excuse me! Don't compare yourself to me SLAG!"He deadpans while taking a bite of a green apple.
"Arguing won't solve a thing, the point here is You screwed up and lost a good girl ! Bro she really liked you though the two of you were audaciously stubborn to express it , your eyes could express it all in the glances you fired ...Well I'll just dance my out of your personal life come on it's Reunion night forget the past"He says while going to dance with the others.
My head feels so heavy as I drunk heavily, suddenly I feel dizzy its like the world is spinning me around.
I could feel my self falling,then a hand holds me tightly
Effie!the sparkle in her eyes causes me to pause in thoughts for a second.
"Becareful!"She exclaims while helping me sit on the chair.
Before I could say a word,She walks out on me as usual.
My heart sinks, seeing Kai get so close to her while dancing,he caresses his hands on her pretty face.
Then twirls her around , just to pull her closer by her waist.My grip on the wine glasses tightens , before I realize it I'm already heading towards Kai and Boom!
I push him away from her and Punch him hard such that his lip bleeds."FREAK!!ARE YOU CRAZY WHAT THE HELL IS WRONG WITH YOU"Effie exclaims in anger.
She pushes me away , and attends to poor Kai.
"Are you okayyy ,she asks him with so much concern in her voice"He nods reassuring.
"Dude , you're crazy come on go to your room"Zak yells at me .
"Butt I—
"Just shut up and go, Brayden take him to the booked room he has totally lost it, Psych!"Cane deadpans.
My eyes narrow at Effie who is tending to Kai like some child, Jealousy keeps eating me up but I'm too drunk to cause another ruckus.
"Stay here bro till the party is over!"Brayden instructs while giving me a disappointed look before walking away.
The night feels sour, the music turns ugl , agony is all I feel, Flash backs of the Memories I shared with Effie kept reeling in my mind.
Surely,I deserve all the hate she shows me.
It's reunion night,but feels like payback day,Cursed in everyway.I lost her just like that.
I keep mumbling here and there till I suddenly black out.
"Look at him sleeping comfortably after causing such a scene"Fross deadpans.
"Bro,get the hell out of here now is not the time Tssss!"I shoo him away.
He surprisingly just walks away and I fall into a deep again.
