Mr Richard drove them to one of the most expensive hotels in the city.
"Have a beautiful night young ladies." he said with a big smile as he opened the car door for them respectfully."We will." Mindy said, winked and smiled back at the man.They both started heading towards the hall but all of a sudden, Alisha stopped walking."What's wrong?" Mindy who also had stopped walking asked."I'm nervous" Alisha replied with an heavy sigh."Nervous?" Mindy said with two furrowed eyebrows "Nervous for what? Nervous about what?""About all this thing. I'm nobody. The people in there are rich people. Powerful people. I don't think I fit in.""Alisha..." Mindy called worriedly."You can't understand since you were born into a rich family.""Don't say that Alisha. I'm also nervous. Even though my parents are rich, they aren't as rich as the people at this party but...""I'm sorry for saying that." Alisha apologized."It's okay." Mindy"Two rooms?" They all chorused."Yes" the receptionist replied."What are we going to do now?" Shane asked as he looked at everyone's faces.Mindy sighed. "I have no idea.""Kelvin, what are you going to say?" Shane asked."I don't know." He replied."Maybe we should check into another hotel." Mindy suggested."Oh" Shane replied, shaked his head several times and looked at the receptionist. "The nearest hotel to this place is how many hours away?""Two hours away." she replied."Two hours away!!?" they chorused."Yes." she replied."That is too far away." Mindy said frustratedly. "What are we going to do now?"Shane sighed and checked his wristwatch which was on 8:16pm. An hotel that was two hours away from this one was definitely out of the option.Shane looked at Kelvin and said" Kelvin, why don't you guys share a room together. Just for tonight.""That ain't happening." Kelvin said the same time Alisha shouted "We can't!""Just for
Few months later.School was over two months ago. Kelvin turned eighteen last month and today, which was a month later was his inauguration day.Alisha and Mindy sat in front of Mindy's television with a bowl of popcorn in their hands each.They were watching Kelvin's inauguration as quiet as possible.When it was time for Kelvin to give his speech, Alisha watched as the almighty Kelvin McSmith got out of his seat and matched to the podium with Kyle James by his side.That was supposed to be her place. she thought. But she had fucked it up by a single mistake."Alisha." Mindy called sadly. "You're crying.""Am I?" Alisha said as she touched her face and tried to wipe away the tears.Mindy turned to her side fully "I don't know why you want us to watch this. Let's go out and you know, party instead.""I want to watch him." Alisha insisted."But, it's not helping you.""Just watching him from afar makes me happy. I just want to make sur
Kelvin didn't show up the next day to give her a ride to school and Alisha took a taxi like she did yesterday.As she got out of the taxi, she sadly looked at Kelvin's spot at the car park and his car was already there. Alisha sighed heavily, pushed back the tears that were threatening to fall and walked into the school.When Mindy saw her, she ran towards her happily and said "Good morning, girl.""Good morning." Alisha said between her lips and walked past Mindy who instantly noticed that something was wrong. She ran after Alisha and met up with her in no time."What's wrong with you this morning? Are you sick or something?"Alisha sighed heavily and shook her head before saying "I'm okay. I slept late last night.""Okay." Mindy said before her eyes lightened up. "Kelvin is in school. I guess you didn't know."Alisha's eyes fell and she started praying for the tears not to fall. She wasn't ready to accept that she and kelvin were over and s
Alisha and Zhang broke apart the moment they heard the scream and instantly looked at the direction where the scream had came from."No." Alisha gasped when she saw who was running towards them and started shaking nervously. "Kelvin." she called as her eyes connected with that of an obviously pissed off Kelvin for some seconds before he looked away and focused his attention on Zhang instead."How dare you!?" Kelvin shouted and punched him straight in the face. "How dare you touch my girlfriend!?" He added as he threw another punch at a 'caught off guard' Zhang. "Who do you think you're!?" He threw another punch at him."Kelvin, please." Alisha pleaded. "It's not what you're thinking.""You, shout up!" Kelvin said to Alisha and that few seconds distraction gave Zhang the chance to throw a punch at him and said back "She was my girl first!. I turned her into a woman!"Kelvin staggered but was back on his feet in a microsecond and angrily threw a punch at Zhang
Two weeks after the incident, Alisha took a taxi to school for the first time in weeks because Kelvin travelled out the country a day before for an important meeting that he had to attend, Mindy was down with the flu and Shane had volunteered to stay with her.Alisha got down from the taxi and headed straight to her class. Every steps she took reminded her of Kelvin and what type of a boyfriend he was to her. In short, she realized that Kelvin, Mindy and Shane had became a part of her that she couldn't do without.The moment the school was over, she dug her hand into her jeans pocket and brought out her phone. She clicked on WhatsApp, clicked on Kelvin's number which she had stored as 'Pringles' and texted. "Hey babe. You're awake? How was the meeting?"When there came no reply, she texted. "Just checking up on you. Call me as soon as possible. Love ya." she went out of WhatsApp and as she tried to put her phone back inside her back pocket, she ran into someone and dr
"Alisha." Kelvin called worriedly when he spotted Alisha standing next to his car and ran up to her. "Alisha, why are you here? What's going on?" He asked worriedly.Alisha looked straight into his eyes with her eyes that had turned red and said "Can we go on a ride?"Kelvin pulled his eyebrows together in confusion before saying "Ride? We're still in...""Can we go on a ride or not?" Alisha asked firmly.Kelvin sighed and nodded his head "Sure." He unlocked his car and opened the passenger's door for her. Alisha slipped in, Kelvin closed the door and walked to the other side of the door while wondering about what was going on.As Kelvin started the car, Mindy came out of a corner, ran to his car and started knocking on the window that was next to Alisha's."Alisha, talk to me. Please. Let me explain." Mindy was saying urgently "Please, I can explain."Kelvin looked at Alisha who had not moved an inch from where she was seated confusedly and
