Trina.. Woman of steel

November 3

3rd November 2550

I was munching on popcorn as Terra and Fairy moved on to World War II. Clothes were lying here and there and cosmetics were scattered on the floor and they were tearing the eardrums of one another.

- Terra (T)               - Fairy(F)

F: This fits PERFECTLY on Trina. It is strapless, ends at mid-thigh and its purple. It’s feminine.

T:  Feminine? Bullsh*t. For your information, duckhead, purple is an international gay colour. What message do you want her to pass to him? That he is gay? Yellow is PERFECT for her.

F: Over my dead body, that colour is a taboo for dates. Yellow is another symbol of stupidity, bimbo.

T: Stupidity? Nova is blonde. So are you calling him stupid, brainless leech.

And they rattled on and on. I was enjoying the show as they flung dresses and cosmetics at one another. The clock struck five. I kept an  “End Terra and Fairy World War”  alarm at 6 so that I would not be late. Suddenly an oversized t-shirt with the words “Party all night” in big fat font came flying across the room and landed onto my head. I was trying to take it out at I screeched, “Don’t involve me in your fight!” But they did not seem to hear me and continued bickering. Since they had more experience on dating and flirting, I left my dress problem to them and make up problem to Glitter. Honestly how will my life be without them? Thankfully they ended their war 15 minutes as per their curfew, so I had no problem. They handed me a green evening gown which was single shoulder-strapped. A green crystal pin was used to connect half the strap to the other half. While some amount of green velvety cloth was pinned to the side of the waist with a green crystal pin which looked like a flower. It had a slit, so my legs could be seen if I were to walk too much, so I decided to wear stockings under it. Glitter straightened my hair and attached long crystal earrings. I was looking stunning when I looked at myself in my mirror. I received compliments from my roommates when at 7 sharp, the polite honking started. I walked down and by the time I reached the car, Nova had opened the passenger door and waited for me to get inside while he waited at the side grandly. As I walked into the car, I heard someone mutter, “This is the first time in the history of Nova’s love life that he had actually asked the same girl for ANOTHER date!” my eyes twinkled upon hearing it and in no time, Nova and I were chatting while we were on our way to the restaurant. But then I realised that he had bought me to another one, which was called, “Quintet Sea Galore” OMG, this restaurant is the MOST expensive seafood restaurant in the whole city! I could not believe my eyes as I lifted my head up to see the tower, which was a restaurant actually. As we cut the endless queue(again) and got to the highest level, the terrace. I remembered my friends saying that the higher the tower, the more expensive and difficult to get. It could up to minimum 3 months to get a seat! Maybe he cancelled the date from Sunday to Saturday as he could not reserve there. I still appreciated his efforts. As I saw the dazzling night sky, thousands of stars winking at me and the city light flashing so vividly. I never knew that the city could be so mesmerising actually. For a second, I swear I saw Nova looking at me with a smirk at the corner of my eye but when I looked at him directly, he was in his usual good looking i-am-calm confident smile which I knew only businessmen can do so good. God, he will be a successful next president of The Redgers certainly as I could see how well his father must have taught him. The charming smile, adorable eyes and lips, confident charisma and the calmness and formality in his tone at ANY situation. As usual, he let me order and ordered what I wanted. Savouring the mouth-watering grilled salmon in my mouth, I enjoyed the city’s view, with heavy gratitude towards Nova. He sure likes me huh? I was anticipating for the day when he would say the three words which I was craving to hear from an amazing mouth. After my second trip to flavourmania(only that today was seafood version), I kept quiet throughout the ride, memories of the food and its delicate taste in my mouth. Soon he stopped the car, but I realised that the car doors were locked. Umm.. this does not sound good. I gulped down saliva as I turned towards Nova who was slowly lunging towards me. Wait was he going to say the magical three-word phrase… holy gummy bears. He came really close till we were so close to brushing our lips. But no, no move as his blue eyes were staring into mine, I was absorbed in the ocean of his two orbs. I could smell the intoxicating fragrance of branded perfume, soaking into my nostrils as my hormones kick up. His hand laid on my bare shoulder which had no straps. The contact of his smooth and ever-reliable fingers sliding on my shoulders gave me electric shocks pumping into every vein of my body. His minted breath was entering my mouth as I was getting impatient as seconds pass and anxiety coursed REALLY badly in my veins and my body heat simmered up when his index finger twirled strands of my hair in his fingers. I wanted to close the distance in between us.. but I waited. I wanted him to lunge at me. I balled my fists to fight the urge that was kicking all over my brain when he finally smirked. He suddenly moved away and got out of the car. HOW COULD HE!? He just toyed with me! In a split second, he opened the door for me. Ohh.. the locks were unlatched already huh? I got out, shame lighting up my face like a tinted neon bulb. I walked away. I got pissed.. kind of. He just refrained from saying and doing the most hormonal things which playboys like him play. That charm of his. I felt like… boxing him? For not kissing me?

I groaned as loud music blasted in the room. I turned around to see Glitter practicing her dance for our sports festival. Boy that was a really important event. The sun’s bright rays pierced my eye and I woke up instantly. Man, I do not want to experience that again. I better remember to close all curtains before sleeping. Then my purse vibrated. I unzipped it and slipped out my phone, which was low in battery. Only 16%.. Erhh.. why had I not planned to charge my phone the previous night. I plugged my charger into my phone as i looked that it was a message from.. Helia? He gave me his number, fine but how did he get mine?  This boys are way too dangerous for me to handle. I looked at the message:

I need to see you now.

Mind if you meet me at dolce café for breakfast.

 Huh? So early in the morning and I needed to see him? Errhh.. even my phone was charging. So I decided to just reply and leave with only my purse. I do not need my phone right? I was wrong.

I replied:

Ok, fine

I hit the shower fast and changed into a normal tee and a short pencil skirt. I secretly slipped into Fairy’s leather high boots. Well, that felt really good. Especially in the morning. I did a fast pace to Dolce Café and I saw Helia stirring coffee and picking on waffles. At least he will pay the bill, right? As I entered the café, Helia looked up at me and moved a bit to let me sit. He handed me a tray of black coffee and Belgium waffles with cream. I started gobbling it down as its aroma wafting in my nostrils were uncontrollable. One I had finished my plate. Helia looked at me in surprise and said, “You sure look adorable when eating.” I almost choked on my food. Did Helia Eminem called Weirdo Trina Spectra that she was adorable? When eating? Valtor called me deserted buffalo with serious case of hypothermia instead so I did not get his compliment. It was like an insult of sarcasm to me instead. When we were sipping our coffee, he asked in a sweet manner, “Mind if you would pass me a packet of sugar?” Politeness, royalty and a small glint of command was showed in his voice as he asked. I immediately reached out for the packet and passed it to him. I was amazed at the authority his voice showed. Care and fair was what his character printed on me. A smile flickered on his face as he divulged his plan to me. Boy the plan was good. Damn good. It would show principal Hanes of such a daughter he has. Once he was done. I decided to stand up and slip home but no, he did not let that happen. He kept his hand around me and I did not even budge. His skin on my skin only gave me pleasure and ecstasy. Soon, I realised that his free hand was pacing south. From my knee, it soon rubbed against my skin, as if no friction. To soon under my skirt. Damn… this is getting crazy. But 89% of my damn hormones accepted it and was urging him to move on while to mere 11% of my hormones and willpower told me to not let him do that. At that moment, I wished I had my cell phone to help me, but no. But deeper his hand went into my skirt, the higher percentage of my hormones were accepting and encouraging, left with a mere percentage to stop. It was as if the voice which told me to stop got softer and softer It stopped at the point where I was about to break into full acceptance, it… Helia left me alone and left the café, paying the bill for us in authority and left with a mischievous smile. He… his hand.. pinched my thigh before leaving me.. my jaw hung open and eyes wide open. No, no he DEFINITELY has been in the field of flirting for a long time. It was like.. he knew from where to start, when to start and where to stop and when to stop.     

That left me startled for a while. Damn, both are really good at this game while I was not even started. My green eyes sparkled with fascination and the rest of my day, I spent time on completing my homework properly and  doing some extra revision for my History test on Monday. I gladly skipped lunch and had dinner with Terra on our way to the hostel from our work stations. This… was the most eye-opening day of my life..
