The Party

"So Kelly what time does the party start. "

"10:00 p.m.."

"We're going to that party. Excuse me for a second."

I left to call Jessie but the baby started crying so I picked him up and gave him his bottle.

"Jessie, so you coming home tonight?", I asked curiously.

"Nope, babe I'm gonna stay with Jessie for tonight."

"I fixed dinner"

"We're ordering pizza"

"Well ok, what are you guys doing tonight."

"Nothing much because I have to go to work tonight"

"Well talk to you later"

"Love you"

"Love you too"

I walk back into the room where Kelly was changing Elisa.

"Who was that"

"Jessie, I wanted to see what was going on. Jessie said he has to go to work."

"Really?", Kelly asked sarcastically.

"Yeah, I trust him"

"Well ok, what are you gonna do with all this food."

"We're gonna eat it"

It was 2 in the evening and the babies were asleep.

"So, Kelly where do you work at."

"Silvia's Spectacular Spa on 1500 Vincent street. You know you could really work there, you really know how to design nails."

"I'll go check it out soon"

"How about today. We can go get the application today"

We drove out to the spa to get the application and then headed home to eat dinner.

"Lana this is really good"

"Thanks"

"So how are we gonna go to the party and we have the babies.", I asked curiously.

"We can drop them off with my mom"

"Yeah"

"It will be easy to enter because it's a masquerade party."

"That's great, but what will we wear.", Kelly asked.

"I got the perfect dresses for us."

It was now 8 pm and we had to drop the kids off. We packed their bags and headed to Kelly's mom house.

"Mom I need you to watch Jessie Jr and Elisa for me."

"Well ok baby, Alana he's so adorable."

"Thanks"

"See you later mom"

"Have fun you guys"

We left back to our house to put on our clothes and get fancy. I had on a mint green short dress with some silver diamond encrusted heels. Kelly dressed herself with a till blue dress and black corduroy heels. Once we did our finished touches, we both met each other down stairs.

"You look beautiful", we both said at the same time as we laughed at ourselves.

"Ok lets go get the masks"

It was now 10:35 and the party had already begun.

"Should I call Jessie", I asked Kelly.

"Nope let's just go to the party."

"You're right, let's go to his job."

"Alana, I never could tell you anything."

I drove to his job and entered.

"Is Jessie Collin here."

"No, he wasn't scheduled to work today.", the manager told me.

"Ok thanks very much."

I called Jessie right away because any time he had a night shift, it started at 9:00 p.m.

"Jessie"

"Hey babe, watcha doing."

"Nothing, Kelly and I are at home setting up the cradle. What's all that noise."

"Nothing babe , it's just Lizz playing her music."

"You still at work"

"Yep", he said.

"Well I gotta go", I said trying to end the conversation.

"Bye"

"Kelly, I know for sure he is lying to me."

"Lana it's time to head to the party."

We arrived at the party and the music was loud. We were met at the door by two boys.

"Hey, how you too ladies doing tonight"

"Were fine"

"How bout a dance.", they asked us.

"Sure" Kelly said

"No thanks"

"Come on Lana, lighten up"

"Ok fine just this one time."

I was having the time of my life. I had at least 4 drinks already. I was pretty out of it.

"Watch it", a boy came by as he bumped us as we were dancing.

"You watch it", we kept dancing as the boy kept staring and then the girl took his mask off and kiss him. I could tell he was pretty wasted.

The boy under that mask was Jessie. The girl and Jessie went upstairs to a room and I followed until I was interrupted by Kelly.

"Kelly I'm leaving with Corey"

"Ok fine, don't go have baby #2"

"Trust me I won't."

I went to the room and I heard moaning and I saw Jessie and her having sex. She was touching his nice body and he was kissing her. I was already heartbroken so I ran in.

"What the hell", the girl said as she covered up.

The mask still covered my face.

"I think you have the wrong room", Jessie stated.

I removed the mask revealing my self as tears came from my eyes.

"No, Jessie I think I have the right room."

"Oh shit Alana"

I ran out of the room downstairs into my car, I was drunk but I was over this night.

He chased me outside to my car as I was about to drive off.

"Alana wait"

"Why should I, Jessie. You don't love me. I gave you a second chance. I trusted you and you lied to me."

"Baby, please don't do this"

"You have your little tramp in there, you can go love her.", I said as I drove off.

"Alana", Jessie screamed.
