PBE: The Sequel

-16-

I couldn't say anything , I wanted to slap her in her face. This was my sisters party so I would smile and pretend. I extended my hand and smiled.

" Hi Iris it's nice to meet you." She smiled and shook my hand rubbing her fingers over mine lightly.

" Nice to meet you to Delaney, I love that dress you have on."

I was sick to my stomach , I was horrible and pretending this wasn't going to work.

" Well ladies can I offer you something to drink ?"

" Oh you stay here don't over work yourself , Em come with me let our little sisters mingle."

Little did she know, I knew her little sister inside and out literally. I watched them walk away to make sure they are out of sight.

" I missed you Delaney , it's been a while" she twirled my hair in her fingers. I moved away looking at her.

" I had no idea you were her little sister, and don't give me that you miss me bullshit. I know about you and Odell Iris okay, so I won't pretend that we are friends."

" What happened with me and Odell was a mistake, or so he says"

I wanted to punch her , so he says? What the fuck does she mean by that.

" It was a mistake, just like allowing you in our life was a mistake. But you learn from your mistakes right ?"

" A mistake that you made over and over again Delaney ?"

She was purposely trying to get under my skin. I rolled my eyes and walked away from her , this just means that now me and Odell are going to have to be around Iris after we did so well avoiding her.

The rest of the party was a success , we played games , shared stories and cashed out on the entertainment for the night. When everyone left I stayed behind and helped Em clean up.

" Buggie this was an absolutely amazing bachelorette party thank you!"

" I'm so glad you had fun . It was all about you , and so your smile is all that matters."

" Did you enjoy yourself ? You seemed a little taken back by Iris , did she say something ?"

" No , you know me I am standoffish with new people that's all."

" Yes I know, but she's really great once you get to know her."

No she's a horrible home wrecking bitch.

" I'm sure she is I look forward to getting to know her. "

We heard the door open and the boys walked into the house chanting something, thank god Ayanna is with her grandmother.

" Hello Ladies . How was the party ?"

" It was a lot of fun thank you ! How was yours ?"

" Let me just say I have one hell of a best man."

Q dapped Kevin up and walked towards Emeli ,
He pulled her close and kissed her. I smiled and looked over at Odell he caught my eyes and winked.

" Okay Em I am heading back to the hotel I'll see you later
Okay. "

" Drive safe , I love you and thank you again."

I grabbed my bags walked toward Odell.

" Babe I'm tired can we go?"

He nodded and said his goodbyes to everyone and we walked out to the car. We climbed into the car and both of our phones lit up.

From Iris:

I'm bored can we play tonight ?

Was this bitch serious ? She couldn't be fucking serious , I just told this delusional bitch that we were done .

" Babe did you ?"

" Long story short , Iris is the baby sister of Em's Bestfriend so be ready for a lot of Iris for the next few days. I already had to smile a pretend tonight, I don't wanna do it anymore."

He looked at me with questions in his eyes . I am sure he wanted to know what was going on in my head , truth be told Iris is the least of worries.
