Amanda's POV
Ocha stared at her reflection in the mirror and shook her head in wonder, she's appalled at what she's seeing, I don't look like me at all she thought
Their exams ended last week and her friend Sharon folawiyo is throwing a party at her house to celebrate their freedom from school.
Ocha looked closely at her face and shook her head again
What is it? Ocha,you look beautiful Sharon said and the other girls cheered her,Sharon insisted they changed for the party at her house,they were all in her room fussing over ocha,they are making ocha feel like the party is for her,it felt like she was getting married,they all want to do her make up,ocha's skin is so flawless they kept cooing,they all screamed in frustration when ocha showed up at Sharon's house with her natural hair
Ocha what is this on your hair? Sharon asked
I don't get ocha blinked in confusion
Why didn't you make your hair? She asked
Oh that,I like my natural hair ocha replied
What!! You are done with school,you are a big girl now,I'm calling the hair stylist she said with a ring of authority in her voice and that's how the fussing started.
The hair stylist came over with pack of weaves and kept on talking non stop as she tried to pull me into a conversation.
After she finished Sharon pulled into her room and said time for make up! Jumping and squeaking in delight
Oh I can't wait to beat your face,your skin is so flawless she said.
Sharon please I don't think make up is necessary I said
What nonsense, it totally is she replied
And now I'm staring at the result of her hand work.
The dark Smokey look on my eye made me catch my breath,I gotta admit its beautiful,my eye is an unnatural light brown and the dark smokey look is quite a contrast with my eye,the eye make up seemed to make my eye pop out. Then I looked at the lips and shook my head in disagreement,its red I mean red red,I mean come and get me siren red.
Sharon I don't like this thing you put on my lip ooh I told her
What? Its beautiful she replied
You call this beautiful? This red stuff makes me look like a hooker,you can use it for yourself and it would look beautiful but for me it would a attract too much attention I said
That the whole point honey,you attract attention whether you were make up or not,I mean look at that face talk less of the butt she said wriggling her eyebrows and all the girls shouted in laughter and I couldn't help buy join them.
I cleared my throat and said seriously we have to do something bout this red thing ooh. She's bout to reply when we heard a knock and a feminine voice said Sharon your party has started when will you make your entrance.
Sharon and the girls jumped up and started heading out the door. Funke noticed I wasn't with them and said chimamanda are you not coming? You guys should go I'm coming.
Ocha come with us now,I want us to make an entrance and we can't do that without you.
Sharon! Will you go already I shook my head in amusement.
Finally I'm alone and I look for wipe to clean up the red lipstick, I saw a pink lipstick on the floor and applied it, wow I thought as I looked at myself the pink lipstick is light and it gave me and angelic look despite the smokey eye,at this moment I agree with what I've been hearing all my life,I do not look like a Nigerian at least at this moment I know I don't,its funny how the straight long center parts hair and make up has changed my mind. I did a little dance and looked down at my outfit,I've had it for almost a year but never had the courage to wear it now I'm being forced to because of Sharon's party.
Its a crop top and black high waisted jean,the jean is not high waisted enough to cover my tommy so a tiny stripe of skin can still be seen,the tight jean over emphasized my figure and wide wide hips and butt can be seen. Jeez!! I thought and then I suddenly felt self conscious of my figure.
Scott's POV
My little sis is brilliant,in fact she's a genius. After I told her of ocha and how much I like her she has been determined to bring us together, she came up with idea of throwing a school leavers party where lots of teenagers around us would be invited, ocha included. So she can't officially introduce us to each other and then I can ask her out. Brilliant huh?
Anyway today is the party and its going as planned,I invites my friends from unilag,my sister and her friends just made an entrance and it was grand indeed my friends were already making plans to ask their preferred babe out.
Suddenly every were sort of grew quite not the entire party but the corner where I sat with my friends and other places to,I followed the direction of their eye and I felt my jaw drop....
