By her sophomore year she decided she wanted to pledge AKA because she had seen the attention they got as the, supposed to be pretty girls. She went into it with all the wrong intentions to begin with. Her moral compass was facing south, meaning downhill at rush the whole time. There was this pro fight that seen her around campus. She attempted to put her under her wing because of her attitude towards a lot of things and people. Her big sister was warning her about the dangers of being open and willing to do anything. She wasn't trying to hear it, but acting as if she did. She seen the way others around campus treated her big sister with the up most respect, but the whole time Tykia had an ulterior motive, she wanted the place of her big sister, and the man she dated.
She was invited out with some of her soro's on a cool night at this local lounge. They had a few drinks and were cutting up and enjoy the night. As the place begin to get packed, guess who walked in the door? A few Alphas from Morris Brown and of course her big sisters boyfriend. They came over and sat with the AKA's as their guest for the evening. As the drinks started flowing and shots were coming Tykia was getting a little loose. More and more of her true colors started coming out. She was telling this dude things as if he had known her since grade school. Her body language told him what she really wanted to say.
Her girls excuse themselves to the ladies room and tried to tell Tykia to calm down. Tykia went on to tell them they always play like that. Even in front of her big sister they clown in that manner. But she calmed down and acted accordingly, she didn't want it to seem so obvious. She was getting better with her craft. She slipped ole dude her number in front of everybody without anyone noticing. She told him about an internship that never existed and gave him the number to her google voice account. Her friends knew nothing about that number, and she knew she couldn't give him her real number.As she entered her senior year she had been with at least one dude from every Fraternity and was well known by the athletes, and not because she attended every game if ya know what I mean. It was time to look toward the future. College boys was like a yo-yo to her now days. Tykia had to look for her next turn in life, and it wasn't going to bring her to a dead end. She met this older women at a conference in Washington D.C. who told her about this management firm. She gave her the whole run down on what they managed and their clients. Tykia was listening to the lady speak, but not paying much attention to the words coming out of her mouth. Once she heard the lady start talking about the entry level beginning salary she was all in and seemed to be more interested in the conversation. It was a catch to it though! In order to have a chance of getting her résumé looked at, she had to have some kind of referral from three influential figures or politician basically. Being from a small town right outside of New Orleans, she didn't have the slightest idea of whom she could ask for this referral. The biggest thing to come out of Slidell was a washed up basketball player who she looked at like shit in high school. She put her thinking cap on and went to asking a lot of questions, to see if there was anyway around these referrals.
She asked the woman, “How long have you been at the firm?” The woman responded, "a little over thirteen years." Right there she knew this lady had some type of advise to give her in order to be considered for a position with the firm. It was nice for the lady to even tell her about it, but she really had to get close to her. Tykia noticed the woman wasn’t wearing a wedding band and asked, "Are you married?" The lady replied, "child no... I work too much. I don't have time for a man and their silly games."
Tykia asked, "Do you have any kids?"
"No" said the Lady. "Don't have time for them either. I'm all about my money."
Tykia’s golden opportunity just presented itself. She said to herself "she has to be gay.” Now, Tykia never went all the way with a woman before. She got drunk with her sorority sister and made out with a few of them, but never the full Monty. She went on to tell the lady she doesn’t have a man nor kids either. She's just focusing on school and her future career. She knew this would really catch this ladies attention and raise a brow.
With the white pencil skirt she had on, Tykia intentionally wastes a glass of red wine on her skirt. Her intentions was to get this woman into the bathroom with her to assist in removing the stain. The lady obliged to help her. On the way to the restroom the lady was stopped by one of her colleagues. She told Tykia she's going to catch up, give her a minute. So by the time Tykia made it to the restroom she had already slid her panties off and put them in her purse. When the lady walked into the restroom Tykia was trying to remove the stain. She put one leg up on the sink knowing she had previously removed her panties. Then she looked up at the lady to see if she was looking.
They caught eye contact...........She locked eyes with the lady as if she have a done it before. Like she knew what it took to get the attention of an undercover lesbian. The lady noticed she didn't have on any panties, and gave her a smirk as if goal accomplished. As the lady leaned in to help wipe the stain from her skirt, she also wiped her finger across the fresh Brazilian wax job of Tykia. Tykia's heart was beating hard and she was breathing heavily as if she was afraid, but yet turned on. She grabbed the ladies hand and said "I’ve never done this before, and I hope this is not going to jeopardize a future work relationship" (things hoes say)... The lady looked up and said "not at all sweetie, I can make sure you land the job."
Tykia quickly closed her legs and said, "Lets stop this! I don't know what’s going on right now" (things hoes say). The lady looked her in her eyes and said "I understand." Little did this woman know Tykia was playing the game to win and not just to score.
Upon leaving the restroom Tykia made her way back to her table with her head held high and a devilish smile. It was almost as if she could see the finish line. But she knew she had to seal the deal. She knew a woman with that power couldn't just be left with a tease of that pretty smooth and shaven va-jay-jay. If she let up too soon she could possibly be forgotten about.
As the conference came to an end she went and found the woman and asked, “would she like to share a taxi back to the hotel?” With the woman taking a step back and licking her rouge lipstick, she told her sure. While standing outside of the convention center waiting for the next available taxi, a tall well-groomed middle age man appeared. He was wearing a tailored made Brooks Brother suit, smelling like her favorite cologne for a man to wear, which is Creed. The man approached the woman and asked, “Did you enjoy the evening?” The lady said, "While of course Davis, you always seem to captivate the crowd.” Little did the lady know, he didn't only captivate the crowd, he also got the attention of Ms. Tykia. This man was around the same age as Tykia’s father.
Davis and the woman began talking about work related things as they stood and waited. The woman turned and said, "Excuse my manners... Davis this is Tykia, Tykia-Davis."
"Tykia, Davis is the one of the three partners of the firm."
Tykia stuck her hand out and was a lady, and simply said "nice to meet you, SIR."
She was already planning her next move like a professional chess player, but couldn't move until she sealed the deal with Ms. carpet muncher. They loaded the taxi, headed back to the Helix hotel in Northeast Washington D.C. On the ride back to the hotel the lady was telling her about the firm, but Tykia’s mind was on Davis. She rode back the whole time looking out the window thinking. The taxi pulled up at the hotel and the lady paid the fee. Tykia walked slowly behind the woman as if she was having second thoughts, but all she was looking for was reassurance of the possible job. They stepped on to the elevator and headed to the top floor. She asked the woman "do you guys always stay in nice hotels like this?" The lady replied, "well of course honey, Davis and the other partners make sure his employees are always well taken care of."
That was what she needed to hear, ‘Davis takes good care.’ As they exited the elevator the lady said, "its okay sweetie," but little did she know Tykia was already okay. They walked into the ladies suite and Tykia was ready to seal the envelope. She sat on the edge of the bed with her legs crossed at the ankles and leaning forward with one of her straps to her blouse hanging off her shoulder. The woman poured two glasses of wine and walked up between Tykia's legs.
She rubbed Tykia’s shoulder with this gentle touch. She leaned her head back and kissed Tykia’s lips as she open her legs as far as the pencil skirt would allow........
