Cercei smoothed down the knee length gown she was wearing, and adjusted the strap of the dress for the third time. Her legs bounced repeatedly on her seat, and she heard a sigh beside her. "Stop doing that. You're making it obvious that you're uncomfortable."
She turned to the girl driving and folded her arms. "That's because I am. Ugh, why did I agree to your suggestion?" She made to pull the dress down again, but the girl reached out a hand and stopped her.
"Don't start again, Cercei. You're the one that wanted to go somewhere, besides this will help you forget about that no good ex of yours," the girl promised, and Cercei sighed in response as she turned to stare out the window.
Her best friend, Mirabel, was right. She had spent weeks brooding over the fact that her ex boyfriend had cheated on her, only to learn that he and roommate were now staying together at her old room. Apparently, it hadn't even been up to twenty four hours after she confronted her roommate and moved out that he entered, and now they were flaunting their new relationship around the school. Cercei felt like crying again, but she blinked her eyes and smiled at her friend.
"I hope it does," she said and was about to ask what the party was for before the venue came into view and she looked with wonder. It was a large wide open hall with cars distributed across the open space in front, and an array of bulky men standing at the front. Mirabel parked her car and got out of it, with Cercei hesitantly following behind. She checked her reflection in the glass and smoothed down her hair before she fell into step with her best friend, just as the girl handed over a white card embossed with gold embellishments to one of the men. He nodded and the both of them stepped inside.
The first thing Cercei noticed was how the place was decorated in whites. White tables, white chairs, white flower vases, even most of the attendees were clothed in white, and she felt awkward in her navy blue gown. She wanted to chide Mirabel for not telling her what to wear, but when she looked at the yellow jumpsuit she was wearing, she closed her mouth and turned her attention to the hall again.
A lot of people were huddled together, whispering animatedly amongst themselves, and she inched closer to her best friend, who was already waving at a guy at the far end of the hall. Cercei recognized him from pictures as the guy her friend had been dating for some months, and soon he walked over to them and kissed Mirabel full on the lips.
"Welcome, baby girl," he cooed at her and made some odd noises at her before he turned to Cercei and extended a hand. "You must be Cercei, my sweetheart's best friend. Well, I'm Tommy, and it's nice to officially meet you. Welcome to my sister's engagement party." She took his hand and smiled at him, finally clear on what the event was all about.
Tommy led them to a table at the front, with three empty seats and Cercei plopped into a chair first, subtly running her ankles underneath the table. Mirabel had forced her to wear the four inch heels, convincing her that it would do well for her look and maybe even help hermeet s few guys. At that point, she had wanted to ask if that was how she met her current boyfriend, but she decided against it. After all, her best friend was just trying to pull her out of sadness.
As the lovebirds started talking to each other, she looked away from them and focused on the scenery again. Just a few feet away from them was the stage where a man and woman were softly singing a love song. Cercei listened to them for some seconds, trying to browse through her song filled brain for the words but she couldn't decipher the song so she shook her head and moved on. Most likely, it was a new one or maybe in another language, since she couldn't hear half of what they were saying.
Her eyes focused on the crowd again, curious on why most people were huddled together and talking in hushed whispers. It felt like something was up, and she turned to Tommy and asked, "Umm...where is your sister and her fiance?"
The guy stuttered and his face reddened for a second, before he covered it up with a smile and shrugged as he glanced around the hall once. "She's here, somewhere. With her fiance. I think they're getting ready to have a dance," he explained, and she nodded just as Mirabel engaged him in another conversation.
She looked at the both of them for some minutes, visibly lost in each other as they discussed things she couldn't make head or tail of. At a point, Cercei tried to engage them in a topicand the three of them conversed for a while before they subconsciously shut her out of it. At that point, she made a mental note never to follow Mirabel to anywhere her boyfriend was going to be at.
Frustrated, she took out her phone and started to look at her i*******m stories but that was quickly interrupted by a picture of her ex-boyfriend and her roommate kissing on one side of her former room. She squinted her eyes at the picture and frowned. That was her side, and they were on her bed.
She quickly sniffed and stood up from the table, asking Tommy for the bathroom. He pointed it out to her and Mirabel asked if she was fine, but she just nodded and walked away from them, moving slowly to avoid falling and embarrassing herself even as her eyes started to water. Because of the way she was walking, it was easy for her to hear what the other guests were saying and by the time she reached the bathroom, she had the full gist on what was really going on.
Apparently, the would-be bride had broken off her engagement some minutes into the party, and had run off with some other guy while her fiance left the venue looking dejected. According to the people, this had happened over thirty minutes ago, before they arrived and Cercei wondered if Tommy was aware of it and just trying to save face. Most likely, since he was a member of the family.
She opened the bathroom door and immediately went to look at herself in the mirror. A bead of tears had gathered on both of her eyes, and she quickly grabbed a tissue and dabbed them. She wasn't going to spoil the eye makeup that Mirabel had perfected for hours just on that flea bag, and if she had to bet, the cheats would not even last two months before they broke up. She believed in karma, and was sure it would do its work.
She put them out of her mind and entered into an empty stall to do her business, after which she touched up her face and rubbed her ankles for some seconds. Cercei desperately wished she had brought a pair of slippers, because it was quite obvious that there was no 'alpha male' to impress. All the men that had been invited as guests were middle aged, and each one of them had a woman possessively beside them.
After a while, she took in a deep breath and expelled it, moving out of the bathroom. She started the slow walk back towards Mirabel and her boyfriend when someone suddenly moved in front of her. She recoiled and started to scream, but the sound died in her throat when she looked up at the face. It was the guy she had kissed in her college cafeteria few weeks back. Her assaultee, if that was a word.
Her eyes bulged open in shock as she looked at him, still looking calm and bored as ever. Once again, the both of them stared at each other for what seemed like a long time, partly because Cercei was debating whether to walk away or try to aplogize again. She looked around her and nearly walked away, suddenly afraid for her safety. Who knew if the guy had brought the police to arrest her, or some guys to beat her up? He didn't look like the type, but one could never be sure.
However, at the last moment, she stood her ground and stayed to apologize. Just as she put her hands together and started to speak, she saw the guy cast a glance behind her furtively and she trailed off, about to look at what was behind her before he grabbed her face and put his lips on hers.
The first thing that entered Cercei's mind was how payback came so fast, and so exact, but that thought didn't last long as someone instantly screamed behind her.
“uhhhhhh. Uhm” Cercei stands there frozen, her mind scrambled as she stares up at the guy that just kissed her. She’s kissed a guy twice and she doesn’t even know his name or who he is. He just looks at her briefly and his attention goes back to whatever caught his attention behind her before the kiss.Then she hears it again, the scream, well now it sounds more like an angry shriek. She turns around to find a very angry lady walking towards them. She’s confused, wondering why this lady is walking up to her with murderous intent, why this guy just kissed her, why everyone seems to be interested in what's happening in their little corner.She looks to her right, where the guy was standing beside her and she’s shocked to see a very satisfied look on his face as he watches the lady walk towards them. Did he do this on purpose? She thought to herself.Just as the angry lady gets to where they're standing, he grabs her by the waist and pulls her closer to his side. Ah so he did do it on pu
“Hey cercei, where did you run off too and what exactly happened back there?” Mirabel asked inquisitively. “I’ll explain when we see, where are you right now? I’m trying to get a cab, you home?” Cercei asked as she twirled her hand into the road, trying to stop a taxi. “No I’m not home, I decided to crash at tommy’s and I’ll be coming to school tomorrow from his apartment, you are with the keys to my apartment, right? So go home and sleep tight baby.” mirabel replied with a playful tang at the edge of her voice. “Leave me, stop it, sto-p” Cercie heard mirabel’s tiny, sweet voice linger over the phone and she knew that would be her lover boy Tommy trying to distract her while she was on the phone. “Okay baby, see you at school tomorrow.” Cercei said as she smiled and hung up. Cercei finally got a taxi. “We’re here.” The taxi driver said as he pulled over and got an empty spot to park his car in front of mirabel’s apartment, she paid and alighted from his car and whispered
It was a sunny Friday afternoon as cercei and mirabel stepped into their classroom and they both noticed the curious look their classmates gave them and miabel gave cercei a stern look as she settled on the nearest available seat and ce sat right beside her. The lecturer stepped into the class in no time and the lecture started, the lecture seemed boring as half of the started yawning and giving the lecturer a heavy eyed look. “I feel dizzy,I want this class to be over already,” cercei whispered to mirabel with her face looking as drowsy as ever. “We will be done in no time baby, endure a little bit more.” Mirabel replied, smiling softly with her chin looking plumpy and beautiful as always. ”Have a nice day class.” the lecturer said as he headed out of the class. Half of the class immediately jerked up their chair in gladness after he stepped out, while the rest stretched their arms and yawned loudly! . “That was a really boring lecture, I doubt I grabbed anything.”
Cercei clogged the duvet as closely as she could and buried her two arms in between her thick thighs. It was indeed a cold Sunday morning and to think she spent the weekend alone, texting and arguing with her own thoughts. She was awake but still stayed glued to the bed and wished she could summon back her sweet sleep instead of staying wide awake with absolutely no one to talk to, she tried to keep her eyelids closed with the sole aim of summoning her sleep back. She immediately had flashbacks of when she was in a relationship with her ex boyfriend and how they would stay in bed and cuddle each other tight, how he’ll tell her sweet words and promise he’ll never leave her, she remembers how he would kiss her and twirl his tongue around hers and how she spanks her bare ass because she is mostly naked in the house. There was never a moment that Cercei had issues with cold weather whenever she was with him, he is always there to keep her warm,makes her feel special and kiss her
“Be fast baby, we gotta go,” cercei said as she stepped out of the apartment flipping her big umbrella open as she stood behind the door. “Right behind you babe,” Mirabel said as she joined Cercei and stood under her umbrella as she twirled her key in the door and closed her door as fast as she could. “I honestly do not like this weather,it’s annoying and to think we can’t afford to miss this morning class.” Mirabel added as she and cercei moved together carefully in the same steps avoiding the rain from dropping on their clothes. Cercei and mirabel stood by the road and stretched their arms out trying to get a taxi, it took a while before one heeded to their stretching and parked carefully beside them and mirabel hopped in first then cercei closed the umbrella carefully and joined her inside then closed the door. The taxi driver zoomed off immediately Cercei joined them inside as Mirabel had already told him their destination. The raging storm makes it hard for phys
“See y’all next week and have a new great day,” the lecturer said as he arranged his books and his phone into his small black briefcase then moved out of the class. “I would know what it feels like to be dating a billionaire pretty soon too,tch,” Jenny hissed as she walked behind Cercei and gave her a detestful look. Cercei watched her walk out of the class looking extremely angry, she smiled and shakes her head gently. “I really don’t understand why almost everyone is so concerned about me dating Aaron, why are they bordered?, when did being in a relationship with someone become a crime?” Cercei inquired as she stood up and moved towards her best friend. “I don’t understand too, I feel it’s because he’s popular and rich too, a lot of girls definitely had their eyes on him especially Jenny, she feels so angry that you are dating him, she probably tried to seduce him once and he turned her down. I guess,” mirabel replied looking into cercei’s eyes as this whole situation
Cercei parked her items into her bag and was ready to leave. She had to sit for a while, she sighed and breathed in and out. She had flashbacks about the kind of encounters she has been having in school ever since news of her dating Aaron started to spread after the kiss at the party, at first it felt so uncomfortable for her but right now she is enjoying every single attention that is coming from it. “Go girl, you are good at this and you can do it, you are a queen and a billionaire’s girlfriend apparently—,” she said to herself as she started laughing softly. Cercei picked up her fancy bag, hung it on her shoulder, then stood up and started moving towards the classroom entrance. She could feel the few students in the class staring at her as she walked toward the entrance but she didn’t give a damn. Cercei walked right out her class and through the school premises and she walked majestically and beautifully, she made sure she had her chin up and smiled softly as she walke
Cercei yawned as she stretched her arms into thin air and she looked up with her thin eye balls as she tried to see the clock and know what the time was saying. She looked up and the time was 7am. “Wow I really slept off till this morning without having dinner” Cercei said as she yawned the second time as she sat upright on the bed and gathered some strength to stand up and go to the fridge to get something to microwave as she was so famished and her stomach was rumbling. Cercei stood up and her ass was as jiggly as ever. She went to the kitchen, took out some rice and took it to the microwave then went to the bathroom, had her bath and brushed her teeth too, she came out and cleaned her body till she was freshly dried up, reached for her body cream and applied it gently on her skin and reached for her cologne and body sprays and applied them then returned them to the wardrobe and headed back to kitchen to pick up her already warmed food. She got to the kitchen and took her w
