I'm really confused right now of what I should wear at the party. You know I have to live up to certain standards. Rich girl's standards. I should dress in a way.


I want a new catch tonight, I'm bored with that jerk of a man who will never leave me alone. I hope he is not invited, because that alone is enough to make me sleep in my room and be contented rather than wasting my time to just go for moody feelings. He is boring like hell and it's my wish that I won't meet him again. Never ever. Like seriously I'm tired of his sudden appearances when I'm really enjoying myself.

My sister left already for her work after we spent  time washing my clothes. I'm free now ,very free that I feel shouting and letting the world know that I'm free. I'm crazy but only to myself. I hope so.

I have thirty more minutes to prepare myself. Sarah keeps time and I know she will be here anytime. She is the one who drives me to parties almost all the time.


I went to take a shower as I felt tired because of all the work I've done today, it was too much for me to do. Cleaning all rooms including my roommate's room, washing utensils ,wiping dust in coaches and windows and all other works a lady does when at home. Our house is not that much big, only two rooms ,a kitchen ,washrooms and a tableroom. We pay the rent with my friend Maureen and all other expenses. It's not much far from school and that makes us not late for classes, in fact it's a five minute drive.

I let the warm water rain on my body as I enjoyed the feeling ,warm and relaxing. I scrubbed myself with the soft brush removing every dirt as I get better and fresh. I studied my  curved body ,well shaped as everybody tells me. They say I'm beautiful ,even that jerk of a man. I don't want to bore myself thinking about him, it's enough of what he has caused me for the few hours.

I took the towel and headed to my room  serching from my closet for the clothes I should wear.

I found a black short dress dad had bought me when he visited lastly. We had gone for shopping and I found this nice dress and he agreed to buy it for me. I miss him and I need to call him later or tomorrow. I don't want to bury our father daughter relationship this early.

I will have to do make up today but lightly ,looking like a walking rainbow is the last thing I want. But I want to look cute atleast for my own sake.

Looking at my makeup kit I could not find anything sensible for me to apply on my face today, I felt like I should be natural ,yes I wanna look natural at the party .Taking mascara ,I applied on my eyelashes making them darken abit. I took lipbalm and placed it back , I don't want to look colourful ,I reminded myself and left the kit. I was satisfied with my natural  beauty I saw on the mirror ,I'm okay with the way I am without makeup. Mark used to tell me that my lips look kissable without those colours. Oh forget about him ,I hate him now that we don't date, I can neither miss his lips nor his.....

"Laraaaaaa ," my stupid thought were cut short by Sarah who shouted at my door. She is right on time ,that's one thing I love about her, she will never let you wait for her.

"I'm done , wait a minute ," I shouted back at her as she entered and ran towards  me. She is a crazy friend to have, cool and funny ,not funny the way you think. I was deciding which shoe to wear when she entered and hugged me tightly claiming how much she missed me.

"Hurry up, else we will be late and who knows the gate maybe shut, we will not be free as we always are since Jasmine's dad and mom will be around. " she tittered snapping her hands. I laughed as I imagined what we would do if the gate was shut on our face. I knew Sarah was exaggerating but it's true we won't be free like we always are when on other general parties, Jasmine's parent are strict and they don't entertain our dirty behavours. As well we can not misbehave in front of them ,it would be shameful if we do so.

"We must behave before they throw us at midnight , especially you Sarah ,you're used to shouting. Let me warn you before you hate me tomorrow if you happen to be jailed." She smiled as she imagined how it would look like being in juvenile. She like smiling a lot ,let me say it's her hobby.

"I won't shout today ,I swear, I may decide not to drink much if that will help me at all."

"You don't even shout, infact you scream and curse like a mad..." I heard a punch on my arm before I would finish my sentence.

"Lara I swear I will beat that of your mannerless mouth, shut it," she screamed at me as I made my dress. We fight a lot and I'm used to this.


I wore my black flat shoes checking myself on the mirror. I look black ,just like my life is, it black and confused. Not an ounce of me look bright, I'm walking on a dark path and lighting it is a dream which will never come true. I hate it.

"You look hot I swear, all men will get attracted to you all night. Don't forget I will be there too and I won't allow you to take all of them Lara ," she said feghning sadness in her eyes. I laughed making her smile of her stupid compliment  too.

"How on earth would I forget my bestfriend's needs ?" I emphasized the words needs. I like annoying her more.

I heard a hit on my arm while I  laughed hysterically as my best friend had a scowl on her face. I swear we fight a hundred time whenever we are together especially if Jasmine is not around.

"I have no needs you black bitch, yours are more than mine."

"Oh! You call me black bitch, and what are you ? A red bitch ?" She hit me again on my shoulder, I know I pushed  her over the edge right now and she is too pissed to realize that I'm pissed too. She wore a  red short dress which fitted her body and showed her curves. She is a piece of beauty and every man would die to have  half of  her even if she rejects all of them just like me. She feels comfortable having different men all weekends.

"Let go babygirl or else we will be on each other's neck. We will be late and Jasmine will be wondering where we are. " I parted her back as I led the way to the front.

"Don't call me red bitch."

"You started it ,if you don't call me black bitch then I won't either call you red bitch." We laughed at the same time as I locked the door. I have crazy people in my life, my sister Tiana and here comes my bestfriend Sarah, crazy of all.

"You like annoying me Lara, only that I love you, I would strangle you to death." She said as  I climbed on the passenger seat and her on the driver side.

"Me too, only that I love you as my bestfriend I would kick your ass until it lack shape." She laughed at my fake joke. That's how we always are, fighting lovingly.

"I almost forgot that we should pass by a mall to buy a gift for our friend. I'm confused what we should buy for her. Do you have anything in mind ?" I had not thought of that the whole week ,actually  I'm not the best friend to have.

"No, maybe we can go and buy her tampons," I said jokingly as I received another hit.

"I will buy that for your birthday in fact it's few weeks from now, wait for that," she said  turning  back to the road as she drove slowly due to the traffic.

"And don't hit me again."

"You are giving me reasons to hit you. Stop it then."

"Okay I will pretend that I'm dumb the whole ride." I said meaning it.

I'm thinking of what I will buy for her, she is a good friend and I don't want to buy cheap things for her. She is worthy a nice gift.
