"Baby it's been ten minutes are you going to come out or not?" Andrew asked exasperatedly, "I booked the water park for the day do you plan on spending it in the bathroom?"
"Give me a minute im just trying to fix the top" Mwiza lied, "it's kinda complicated"
"I can help" he offered gently
"No I've got it" she replied quickly, too quickly as a matter of fact
"If you're not out in five minutes I'm coming in" he said
She was lying and she hated it. The yellow two piece swimming costume Andrew had gotten her made her uncomfortable.
Her thighs looked too big and breasts were basically spilling out of the bikini top. What bothered her most about it was how noticable her stretch marks and other imperfections were. She didn't want Andrew to find her unattractive, especially since it was their first date, as he called it and they had just gotten together a week before.
Back at home,she had been told a woman's greatest asset was her body but hers was more of a liability than an asset. Her she had long stretch marks at the side of her thighs, under her breast and a few across her stomach
Five minutes had soon elapsed and she knew she had to face him. It was better she faced her fear before hand than waste all the money Andrew had spent because of a few insecurities.
When she came out of the small dressing room, Andrew felt as though all the oxygen had been sucked out of his lungs. For a split second, he forgot how to breath. The view before him was breathtaking, it was all his.
"You're gorgeous" he said when he noticed how uncomfortable he was, "Yellow really is your colour"
She let out a high pitched thanks and covered her body with a towel, praying to God that he hadn't seen her stretch marks.
He noticed this, gently pulled the towel down and said, "I saw the stretch marks earlier, they are beautiful"
He then knelt down and traced each of them, placing small kisses and every now and then looking up at her adoringly.
"You're perfect" he said as he traced them, "each part of your body is perfect, absolutely perfect and so fucking hard to resist"
"You're my girlfriend, look at how old I am and yet the sight of you makes me feel like a horny sixteen year old" he continued, "as much as I love romancing you and seeing you all flustered, I prepared a long day of fun and I would rather not spend it all here"
He stood up and grabbed her hand,. leading her to the first slide.
"This one's called the devil's angel. I don't really know why it's called that but it really fun""I feel like I can see the whole city" she laughed "the view is breathtaking"
"I know" he said with his eyes on her, she noticed this and smiled shyly.
"Are you ready" she laughed and hit his shoulder
"I was born ready" he laughed, "the question is are you baby?"
"I was born ready" she mimicked
He held her waist and glided the both of them forward, laughing loudly when she started screaming.
The day quickly passed and they were going home. As much as Mwiza loved the day, she loved being at home with Andrew and Chloe even more.
She had gotten used to calling the mansion her home. Honestly the mansion felt more like home than the little guy she had shared with her family.
"My feet are killing me" she whined
"I'll give you a massage when we get home" Andrew said absentmindedly as he manoeuvred around the cars. The traffic was rather light for early evening.
"See this is why you don't make someone who weighs as much as me ran" she whined
"You're not fat" he laughed you're just out of shape, "you know I think we should start taking you to the gym since you're so far"
"No it's fine I'm not fat infact my legs just stopped hurting, it's a miracle" she said quickly
"Lazybones" Andrew laughed
"Shut up" she laughed loudly and there was a comfortable silence in the car, every now and then Mwiza would look Andrew and wonder how she got so lucky.
The guilt was slowly catching up to her, she had made a promise and whether she had been forced into it, it was wrong for people to not keep their word
Andrew was just going to be a phase in her life, four years later, when it was time for her to go home, she would leave him and Chloe even though the thought of it made her sick.
