She stole it.

I listened the sweet music caress my ear softly as the violin played beautifully through the phone. I was listening to moonlight Sonata, a classic song that I've been obsessed with since Bonnie died. She loved the it, and now i knew why. It was too pleasant not to like. What really sucked was that whenever I listened to it I thought about her and only her. I realise everyday how much i miss her.

As i listened to the song while sitting on my bed with my back against the wall, I heard a loud bang in the kitchen. I hurried downstairs to look what had happened but found nothing broken. It must've been the door, they always bang it too hard when going out. I called out to see if anyone was there, but the house was empty. As quiet as a tomb. "Great," i thought, "just the way I love it." I grinned to myself. I went on listening to music while finishing my book. I was about eight pages away from finishing it. It made me regret reading it everyday. The book was really nice hey. I read it and cursed under my breath after i was done with it, and with no one around, I started making myself some brunch. It was just nineteen minutes past eleven and i had nothing to do the whole day. I got a text from my mom then, telling me she and dad will be returning in later that day, they had to attend to something important. That meant Eric was in charge. I dreaded the idea, but hey, disadvantages of being the last child in the family. Not that he was always there anyway.
The food was done in an instant, well it felt like it, and i sat where i was sitting the previous day. I was still thinking about the girl who was watching me and listening to me sing. I then closed my eyes and all I could hear was nothing but the singing and tweeting of the birds.
It was so pleasant. The next song was Goldberg Variations. I hummed it as I opened my eyes to eat, but i was shocked to see the girl from yesterday standing right where i saw her. She saw me and immediately went away, but i put my food down and ran after her. She didn't see me come so she was surprised to see me. After she turned to look at me, i was so dumbfounded by her beauty. How is it that a black girl had such amazing hazel eyes?! I couldn't even tell if they were hazel or that light shade of green close to yellow. Her eyes were small, but they were absolutely beautiful. Her lips were so red and full and she had the most adorable nose. Her hair, ebony with amber tips that went well with her caramel skin. She was perfect. I eyed her body from top to bottom, and i couldn't help but look at her curves and her amazing thighs through the skirt she was wearing. Then when i looked back up to her face, I realized that I had zoned out. I felt the heat turn up in my cheeks as i blushed at her looking at me with a smirk on her face.
"H-Hey," i said shyly. I stuttered oh my God. I was totally embarassing myself in front of her.
"Hi," she laughed melodically. I smiled at that. "Hey, " i said again, earning another smirk from her. I mentally slapped myself.
"No, ah...I mean how are you?" I finally said. She was so amused. She laughed again and looked at me straight in eyes.
"I'm okay, but bored." She finally answered, smiling.
"Oh yeah? Is that why you've been stalking me?" I said awkwardly and laughed shyly. Her eyes widened at that and she was the one who was blushing that time.
"N-No. I was not stalking you, i was just, i was... I don't know what i was doing but i sure as hell was not stalking you." She said and crossed her arms, and we both burst into laughter. "Anyway, my name's Palesa. Palesa Mokgethi." She said and i told her my name, well, my nick name.
"What sort of black girl's name is Becki?" She asked and i laughed.
"No, my name's Bokang, but people call me Becki. But you could call me babe."
"Oh okay. Well you can call me honey," Palesa said, and i was amazed at my sudden flirtatious behaviour.
"Nah honey's so old fashioned. I think I'll call you cuppie cake." We both laughed at that and i suggested we go to my house as i was alone. She grinned and nodded excitedly. We walked back to my house talking about random things, like how her life was like here and my own life, and i felt like she felt sorry for me when i told her about myself. I told her that my twin died a year ago, and i was surprised at my outburst. I hadn't told anyone, even Lesedi. I realized then that i hid a lot of things from Lesedi, and knew instantly that i was a really bad friend.
We got to my house and led her to the sitting room. We sat down and continued talking. She was so flirty and at some points she just shut me up when she did it because I was afraid I'd embarrass myself.
"So, Becki,"
"Wait, i thought we agreed on you calling me babe." I grinned.
"Okay, babe. Don't you know that you should always offer your visitors some beverages?"
"Oh sorry. Do you want anything to drink me lady?" I said, imitating the Scottish accent.
"Nah, i want something even more refreshing." She said, eyeing me devilishly. I was confused. But I looked at her, waiting for her to tell me what she wanted, and i felt my eyes close slowly. 'Why did i just close my eyes?!' i asked myself, and before i could open them, i realized why i had closed them in the first place as i felt a sudden heat on my face and something warm on my lips. She was kissing me. I was so dumbfounded and surprised at her move. I must've been the happiest person alive that moment. I remembered, how it was like to be truly happy. I smiled throughout the rest of the kiss but didn't kiss back, and when i pulled away blushing, she looked at me giving me a deadly glare and I knew that I should not have stopped. I leaned in again and she received me fully. I kissed back that time. We kissed and moved rhythmically, as if we've been practicing the whole thing. I put my hands on her waist and pulled her closer, and she sat on my lap. We continued kissing and she pulled away, catching our breaths. It was so amazing, even though she was a stranger. It didn't even feel a slight bit wrong. She was an awesome kisser, i could give her that. Palesa looked at me in the eye and cupped my face with her hands, and kissed me yet again. I pulled away faster and laughed.
"Come on we just met." I said and laughed again. She pouted and laughed too.
"Okay sorry," she said, "let me give you a break."
"How...why did you kiss me?" I asked, still confused at why she did it.
"I knew you wanted it" was the only thing she said before she got up and faced the door. I couldn't help but stare at her thighs.
"I can feel you looking at my ass." She said, causing me to laugh. I followed her and saw her out then closed my door after she left and i sat down on the wooden floor with my head on my hands. "What the hell just happened?" I muttered to myself. My first kiss. . . She stole it, but i didn't mind even one bit.

For the first time in a long time, i was not thinking about Bonnie...
