Something else is going on

Last night

Today was always special. It was my best friend, Keilina's birthday. We have this tradition where we go to store to store just to buy random stuff. But today, we're going to a play called “Bring the rain”. A little different but.. I think she'll like it.

I woke up completely naked while laying next to her. We went to a club last night to celebrate early.

I didnt understand why she wanted to go. She doesn't drink, she's just.. as you would say, desperate for any person that comes her way.

Later that night, I caught myself drinking a full to the brim glass of straight bourbon. Everyone was either dancing to the hip hop beat that was playing or trying to hook up. Kei, on the other hand, was doing both.

I saw her with her medium length honey brown hair and white T-shirt and black skinny jeans walk into the bathroom with a woman and a man who  both looked too old for her. She was only 22. They looked about 35.

The woman had dark skin with long dreadlocks wearing ripped clothing and the man had light skin with short blonde hair wearing a suit.

So not her style.

I follow her into the bathroom, catching the man, kiss her stomach and the woman, kissing her on the lips. As soon as she caught me, she got defensive.

“It's not what it looks like!” she said in her soft voice.

I sigh, knowing she was lying.

“How many drinks have you had tonight?” I say, crossing my arms as the man and woman give me a dirty look.

“Just one. I swear. Sam, listen to me.”

“You said you don't drink!” I say out of anger.

The man and the woman come close to me, looking me up and down. “Are you her bodyguard?” they say in sync. I scoff as I push them back with my hands. “I happen to be her,” I pause for a brief moment. “friend.” I continue.

Kei looks at me and walks towards me, Putting her hand in her hair, scratching her head. “Let's go.” she says, fixing her white shirt.

I begin to leave as the man grabs my arm briefly. I look at him, studying him. He didn't blink once and moved in a robot formation. “If you push me again, you'll be sorry.” he says in a low voice.

I grab his arm as he squirms and I twist it around his back as fast as I could. “And if you ever, come close to her again, I will kill you.” I say to him with tears in my eyes. I finally let go of him, grabbed keis hand, and left the club.

"How dare you!" Kei says to me.

"Excuse me?" i say, not believing what she just said.

"You can't stand that maybe I might have some fun that doesn't involve you!” she says, louder.

Kei never yells. This was unnerving.

“Stop. I can't deal with this right now. You know I love you.”

“Do you? Because you're so clingy, you can't stand the thought of me doing someone with someone else.”

“Don't you get it? We're in a relationship! you can't just go out kissing other people! I forbid you.”

a long pause appeared after I said that. I knew I said the wrong thing. I just didn't want to admit it to myself.

“You, forbid me?” she says, raising her eyebrows. I nod, agreeing to her question. “Since when do you have a right to forbid anything from me!”
