"Rih, while you two are gone, I'm gonna go over some things with Lo and we'll catch you up after dinner" Bey spoke dominantly, gaining a communicative look from Rih that then translated over to Lauren while I looked between the three of them confusedly since I was out of the loop.

When their silent conversation concluded, Rih nodded and proceeded to exit with me in tow and all I could think was...

Oh boy, I'm in for a rush.

///////////////////////////////////

Rihanna and I had finally came back from our trip to go get dinner and to say that it was interesting was an understatement. She just had a way of carrying herself that made me feel all fuzzy inside. From her accent that sent a tingle through me every time she'd speak, or her deep green eyes that pried deep into my soul whenever she'd look at me. To be quite honest, I don't even think she spoke a ton, but when she did it was like she knew exactly what to say to have me unintentionally swooning on the inside.

Just like the first time we met, she was an amazing listener and I was forced to do most of the talking, but it didn't feel like I was forced because she just had a smooth way of carrying on a conversation with minimal words. The way Lauren described her sums her up perfectly; she's an observer. She lets people reveal themselves to her on their own in order to create a connection with them whether it be friendly, romantic or for vengeful gain.

In terms of what happened between us, I talked, she listened, and as the conversation continued, it appeared as if she seamlessly created a closer connection to me from just using her intrinsic abilities and I'd be damned if I said I wasn't intrigued by it...

By the time we ended up back in the oasis, I was even more flustered than when I left and that made me feel even more fuzzy inside because I was about to be thrown in the room again with all three of the goddesses and it may seem as if I'm overreacting, but when you're a natural introvert, being exposed to such huge personas and even just being exposed to new things in general makes you have an atypical reaction.

"I'm gonna go let the girls know the food's here. Go ahead and start making your plate" she voiced to me before jogging upstairs and leaving me to get myself situated. I was kind of thankful for this sliver of time to myself. I felt like I was becoming overwhelmed in an indifferent kind of way due to everything that's happened and I just needed a few seconds to process some things. I'm now in new territory and I'm enduring new feelings and thoughts that I'd never thought possible for myself, given by how my life was set up before now.

Also, I had to process the new attention I was being given in this new environment. I'm accustomed to living in the shadows and being as far away from someone's main focus as possible. That was Ming's specialty and I always wondered how it was so easy and natural for her to be so lively and out there, while I was the twin plagued with the apprehensive fear of not making the societal cut and being pushed away with rejection before I could close myself off and save myself from it. I guess I could blame that on my introverted ways that've been present all throughout the course of my life...
