Chapter Two - Clumsy

I went to freshen up an put my PJs then went to bed and laid there looking at the ceiling.

She was dead.. I swear I was going to kill this girl if she didn't call back.

My phone vibrated and I jumped to it and saw that it was my boyfriend. I felt like throwing the thing to the wall but I calmed down and opened the message. Ahh he was home.

I responded.

ME: I'm glad baby.. sleep well, see you tomorrow yeah...

I waited.. I waited for the call and nothing came. Then sleep took over.

..

The following day was just a nightmare I swear. I haven't heard from the girl about my camera and honestly it made me feel fucked up.. but Nash promised me that we was going to meet this other friend of his this weekend and he'll see what he can get with that.

My class ended soon and I found myself out at the soccer field looking for a particular light skinned lesbian.. but she was nowhere to be found.

"Amora, she's probably bailed on you..."

I shook my head, "she doesn't know who she's messing with. Just because she's bigger than me and strong doesn't mean I'll let her get away with this.. imma beat her gay ass.."

My friend laughed, "you sound homophobic..."

"Whaaaat? Girl.. my..."

"Don't use that 'my sister is gay I'm not homophobic' line... you do sound homophobic.."

I rolled my eyes at her catching what I was going to say before I even finished my sentence, "you suck.. like her.. I'm going home even.."

"Will you join us later for a beer." Antony asked and I shrugged, "I'll see.. I'm out."

I don't know what I was thinking believing that a person I don't know would seriously buy me a camera worth R9 000.. I was insane.. fuck! And fuck her again!

I got out lf the gate and heard a car hoot. I ignored it and put on my earphones then took my phone to connect it. Just as I was about to play music I heard my name.

"Amora....! Jesus..."

I turned, "what?"

Ahh it was the fucken devil in a car.. I stood there and looked at her stunned. I don't know what to say or how to be? The fact that she was actually here like she promised even though she's fucken late and didn't even text me.

"Heeey... That is not a nice way to talk to another person."

I rolled my eyes and folded my arms, "what do you want camera killer?"

She laughed, "God... get in so that my name can change from that too... since you're no longer R8, 945.."

I opened the passenger's seat and sat down. She smiled. Today she was a bit formal you'd swear she was in a meeting or something. She was wearing black pants and a white long sleeve shirt but she folded it until it reached her elbows. Then she opened the first two buttons revealing a white vest inside. It was my first time seeing her without the hat, she was really pretty, short hair with two lines over her left ear and one dimple.

You know what, if someone was to ask me how she looked now, I'd do that with confidence and stop saying, 'she's that lesbian chick who is light skinned and a bit taller than me..' God I felt so dumb for singing that to the soccer team at varsity.

"Are you always this mean...?" She asked starting the car and I rolled my eyes, "to people who crash my cameras only.."

She sighed and ignored my statement, "so.. where did your dear sister buy it from.."

"Somewhere in Sandton... and one other thing dude, you do know that when you ask for someone's numbers you should use them.. I thought you bailed on me and ran away and I felt so stupid."

She smiled still looking at the road, "I'm sorry. after training I got caught up with a lot and I couldn't get back to you. I apologize.. and when I was done it was already late, I didn't want to bother you.. so I was like I'll just show up here..."

I nodded my head as we freely made it to Sandton. She took out her phone and typed something.. then my phone vibrated.

I looked at the text from an unknown number..

....998766: I am really sorry for not texting you. Please forgive me. 👼

I laughed. She really was going to act like an angel.. woow..

"My sister said there was a shop at Sandton City.. let's go check it there.... ohh and I kinda forgive you.."

She looked at me and laughed before opening the car. We both got out and strangely a few eyes were looking at us amd smiling for whatever stupid reason...others even waved and she waved back politely. Was it their first time seeing a gay person at the mall? Really?

Luckily we found the shop soon and we purchased the thing. My heart was so fucken happy when she paid for it.

The cashier was acting all weird and smiling and internally squealing while looking at the woman I was walking with.. I got it, she was gay but what was their deal..?

Don't get me wrong she was beautiful but these people were just being too much to be honest.. I mean my sistee is totally gay too but they don't flip on her like this.. then it hit me.. my sister was more feminine and sexy, men dropped on their feet when they saw her and worshiped the ground she walked on.. okay.. maybe they were going insane over this one coz she was just obviously gay.. I decided.

"Thank you..." she said taking the receipt from the lady and she drooled, "You're welcome.. come again.."

I rolled my eyes and turned to the girl, "let's go...?"

She nodded, "yeah.."

Fuck! I still didn't know her name..

"So.. what did you say your name was..?" I said trying to play it off and she laughed, "Your way of asking my name sucks... ask me properly coz I don't remember telling you my name."

Really? She was awful..

"Dude come on.. unless you love it when I call you camera killer..."

She laughed again and then suddenly two girls said, "oh my God.. hey Tawny.."

I looked at them and found them looking at us. I wasn't Tony... then it registered when the girl I was with waved at them, "hey..."

Then she put her hand on my shoulder hurrying me, "we need to be out of here..."

I laughed as we took an elevator to the underground parking, "woooow... you just ran away from those girls like they are pregnant with your baby.. what? Are they crazy exes?"

She laughed and opened the door and we hopped in then she quickly started driving. She definitely was running away from those girls.

"No... and no..." she responded to my question still laughing. I was glad she found it amusing. I then remembered that she has a boy's name,

"Fuck... Tony...? For real? so your parents ran out of girls names... what happened?"

She laughed more looking at me and I looked right back at her waiting for my answer.

"So?"

"Shit.. umh.. not Tony.. but Tawny... so yeah, they didn't run out of girls names.."

I smiled, "okay.. I thought you was going to say you have a penis or something.. well it's nice to know your name Tawny..."

"Thank God I'm not 'camera killer..' now.."

I rolled my eyes, "Don't remind me.."

We made it back to Rundburg quickly and she went to the mall again and parked underground..

"Umh.. didn't we get my camera...?"

"I thought we can have a milkshake.. to really apologize for not texting and making you worry. I know how much the camera meant by just looking at you react yesterday.. I'm sorry, I'm really sorry Amora..."

I shrugged, "fine by me.. your money to waste and my stomach will be full.."

She laughed getting out, "Amora... Amora... wow your name is really beautiful.. what does it mean?"

I shrugged, "love I think...yeah it means love.."

We went to Smooch and she went to order and I asked for a strawberry one.. she ordered chocolate for her and I found a sit by the corner. I also noticed the guy by the counter stutter when she saw Tawny and his smile grew wider than anything.. woooooow even guys..?

She came to sit down and we talked a bit. I scratched my forehead, "so like people go gaga when they see you... I'm sure you're even thinking of hiring a bodyguard now.."

She looked at me and smiled before taking a sip on her milkshake "you noticed?"

I nodded my head and lifted my hands moving them dramatically, "oh God who doesn't notice.. I mean I get it you're this hot lesbian chick, but you're not the first one. What's the big deal? Can't they just tone it down a bit..or control it?"

She laughed, "God I really hope they tone it down.."

"Yeaah totally.. no offence on what I said.."

She laughed shaking her head, "woooow you are something else I swear..."

I shook mine too, "noo.. not me.. them.. God they are something else.."

She just smiled and looked at me. Probably wondering what the fuck was wrong with me. Oh God.. I was talking a lot...

I took the straw in my mouth and drank my milkshake. Then nerves kicked in since Tawny was just quiet and looking at me. I wondered what was wrong. What was she thinking? That I'm crazy and talk too much? Oh God! I started playing with the watch on my wrist out of a habit.. when I'm nervous I end up doing that.

Tawny smiled, "fuuuck.. your watch is so beautiful... where did you get it from?"

I shrugged looking at the watch and remembering my dad since it was his, "ahh this old thing..."

She stood up to take a closer look at it, "wooow it's beautiful... I've never seen something like this.."

I laughed a bit, I understood why she got excited and loved it. It was manly and her ass was gay.

She moved her hands and before I could register what was up I felt something cold hit my chest and gasped..

"fuck.. fuck... fuck Tawny..."

"Shit.. I'm soo sorry..."

"Fuuck..." I groaned trying to move my top away from my body. It was freezing as hell.

She was by my side in a second with a soviet trying to wipe me but I pushed her off, "noo stop... it's fine... it's fine.. fuck this is cold.."

"Look let's go get you a new shirt..."

I furrowed my brows at her, "we are not buying anything with your money anytime soon.. my dorm is a few minutes away.. you can take me there.."

We both got up and she apologized for the mess but that guy was smiling all the way and not even minding that we made a mess.

We quickly left and went to her car then drove to my dorm.

"Umm.. can I give you advice...?" I asked as she parked outside and she looked at me, "i didn't think I needed it but... sure...."

"You really should watch where you are going or something.. you're very clamsy Tawny... and I'm paying for it.."

She chuckled, "fuck... I'm sorry..."

I laughed, "you really should look where you're going..."

She nodded, "taken.. advice taken.."

I rolled my eyes, "you are something else...Okay.. let's go in..."

We both went out and I opened my place.. the place was fucken dirty... shiiiit! I am going to kill Freya... you'd swear she was a fucken boy.. she didn't tidy the place at all, left dirty dishes there and a few of her clothes were on the couch. GOD! why did I get her as a roommate?

"Nice place.. very clean .."

I laughed, "she's clumsy and sarcastic... this place is so dirty.. God I'm going to kill Freya..."

"Freya? Your...?"

"Roommate... my roommate.. she is just sooo different and I can't even invite my friends over coz she has animals over and...."

"Calm down... the place is still nice.." she said still looking around.

I sighed and put my bag and my phone on the table before removing Freya's clothes and throwing them in her room. Then I opened my room and got in. I immediately removed my top and bra.. fuck, now I was full of milkshake.

I went to my closet and suddenly the door opened, "hey your phone was ringing and I've..." then she kept quiet. I was shocked too since I didn't expect her to budge in my bedroom.. worse since I was naked. and then noticed that her eyes were looking at my upper body..

"Shit I'm sorry.. your phone..."

I quickly put my hands on my breasts, "put it there and get out.."

"Am... I'm sorry I didn't know you wer..."

"Get out.."

"Your phone was..... I'm really sorry..."

"Tawny I said get out please.. just leave my room.." I said walking closer to her. She threw the phone on my bed and reversed back out, "look Amora I didn't..."

I shut the door on her face.

Fuck!
