When we got to the show i met my sister,Davin and my cousin Andre(21). Andre had some company too , Wayne and Tod. We all tagged along with them and went inside.
The stage set up was really nice. It was an outdoor event and a lot of people had showed up.
We looked for a spot to stand for the night.2300
'Gosh!!! its 11 and i told my dad i was gonna be home by 10, and the show hasn't started yet, i can't go home without seeing AKA perform, he's the reason why i came here so i have to see him '
"Guys I'm not going home without seeing AKA, if i get in trouble it's okay, it will be worth it" i told everyone.
"Yah you're right, I'm in on that too" Andre added
Everyone else agreed.
I checked my WA to see if my dad had said anything and he hadn't.
So i just left a message:Me: Hey dad the show hasn't really started so we might come a bit late.
Now i can have some fun.
But Ajay and his boys said they were gonna join us , i hope they will.
This was the best night of my life , the performances of the local artists were lit . Around 4am AKA performed. We were so thrilled to see him , but so drained to dance.
5am
I witnessed the sunrise as the show ended. People were now going home.
All i was thinking about was going home to face my father.
The last messages from him were " Where did you sleep and i am very pissed" so i knew I was in some big big trouble.We all went our separate ways after the show.
I was so tired from dancing and singing along. My sister couldn't even sit in the cab without almost falling asleep .As soon as we got home we slept, that's all we were thinking about before we got home. My dad had already left for work so i was still safe.
My sister and i slept for hours to get rid of the hangover.
I was woken up by the sound of the front door being opened. It was definitely my dad. I didn't wait for him to call me, i went in the lounge and sat on the couch waiting for him to get in.
" Where did you sleep ?" He asked
" We didn't sleep , we were there the whole night " i answered with a very calm voice.
" You said you were going to come around 10 but you lied, what if something bad had happened to you guys ,what if you had been drugged and raped"
I could hear the anger in his voice.
I didn't say anything.
" No more going out for you, i don't ever want to hear you asking me to go to any evening events unless it's church "
Those were his last words before he left for his bedroom. I felt so bad. And worse i was never gonna go out at night.
