Being grounded sucked. And it was in December, a lot of events were lined up. But i had messed it up for myself.
Well dad said "evening events " so if i'm gonna go anywhere i should be home before it gets dark.

A few days after the AKA show , someone apped, i checked out the profile picture. It was Ajay.

Ajay: Hey you

Me: Heyy wassup

Ajay: You never came back😞

Me: To the house or car park?

Ajay: Both

Me: Thought you guys were onto something else thats y

Ajay : Why did you not talk to me instead of assuming😏

Me: I didn't have your #😂

Me: Are you gonna arrest me now??

Ajay: I think I do not have enough evidence for this case.

As the judge and jury I formally close the case

Me: 😂good

Me: Its Ajay right?

Ajay: Lol yeah

Me: 😂the crazy guy...

Ajay: Lol...

Hayas
Link up?

Me: When ?

Then he went M.I.A

After 3days Ajay apped. He said he had been caught up with family since it was a festive season . I didn't ask where he got my number from, it was obviously from Lee. They were related.

Ajay wanted to see me but i didn't know when i was gonna leave for Borderville to see my mum. My sister and i always go there on the holidays to see her.

But this time i didnt want to go. It's not because i had seen her in November but my guts were not up for travelling. My guts are never wrong.

The day my sister and i were supposed to leave , we argued with my dad. I got so frustrated and ended up turning down the journey. I told him i don't want to go anymore.

Tammy took off by herself. I was gonna go in April. Now it was just me and my dad but i really felt like i was alone. My dad was barely home, he was always out with his friend who had came back from Germany.

I spent New Years eve alone, drinking and listening to music. Chatting with my friends filled the gap sometimes.
Ethan was still my boyfriend , but it was just a title now. I wasn't feeling it anymore.

Ajay called the next morning, he invited me to his place. I didnt think twice about it. That day my dad was going to leave for Borderville but not to see my mum, he was going with his friend to check on his family.

I was a bit nervous. But i was now a different person. New year new me. I wasn't going to be that girl who's always afraid of meeting new people or turn down outings like i used to . I had promised to do whatever I wanted.

I went to Ajays house and i wasn't going to overthink about anything. He looked a bit different from the last time I saw him . It was the new haircut and he wasn't wearing his glasses.

Surprisingly i started getting super nervous. I couldn't even say anything properly without chopping my words. Damn why was this happening, is it the alcohol that he gave me ?. I wanted the ground to just swallow me up.

After a few minutes i started getting comfortable, i was still shy around him but it was a bit better now. He was playing some good music. We listened to the same genres but i was happy that he listened to Young Thug too.

As we were watching tv, Ajay leaned on and kissed me. I kissed him back.
I pushed him away from me gently when i realized how wrong this was. I still had a boyfriend. But he kissed me again and this time i didn't push him.

It had been long since I had been kissed or touched. It really felt so good feeling his lips on mine. I knew it wasn't going to end with a kiss so for the 1st time in my life i decided to just let things happen.

After a steamed up kissing, he carried me to his room. I didn't ask him what he wanted to do to me. I tried by all means not to think of how i was about have sex with a guy i barely knew.

It had been 11months without sex, Ethan and i didnt have that side in our relationship. We never even talked about it so i didn't feel bad about doing it with AJay.

Although i kept justifying myself, what i had done was super wrong. I didn't even know Ajay . I didn't care if he wasn't going to call me the next day asking how i was doing because he had already slept with me, what else would he want.

He called a cab for me and i got home safely and on time even though i knew my dad wasn't coming back. Funny enough i couldn't stop thinking about Ajay. He was handsome, funny and very sweet.

I was making my supper when i got a txt from Ajay:

Ajay: Tell me when you get home

Me : 😂finally

Me: I got home safely...thanks

Ajay: Lol...

U were worried for that hit and run huh😂

Yes i was . I thought i didn't care if it was a hit and run but i was lying to myself.
That night we talked till late. It felt like I had known him for a long time.

Ajay was now my new flame. I had no idea what was going to become of us but i was up for enjoying whatever as long as it was with him.

When he asked me to go to Mozambique with  him i was happy that he had me on his mind but i couldn't go. His brother was going with his wife and he didn't have a plus 1. If he had told me sooner i would have planned something.

I didn't know Ajays intentions towards me.  Sometimes it really got me paranoid. But we were getting to know each other. I could tell him everything, he understood me, and i was myself around him.
