✰[I’M SORRY]✰
Whitney walked out after some minutes from the departmental store.
She quickly wore a deep frown on her face cause she couldn’t find Natalie around.
“Natalie?, f_ck! I asked her to wait” Whitney seethed.
She made to call her, then, her eyes caught the box of cake on the floor.
“The h*ll!! Oh, Natalieeee!” Whitney cried out and grabbed the box.
She dusted the exterior and hoped the cake, itself was in a good condition.
“But,,, where is she?” Whitney muttered.
She called Natalie but it was cut off. She called her again, and this time, the line was unreachable.
“Oh goodness. Where did she- Whitney gasped when she saw the time.
3:28pm!.
“Taxi!! Taxi!!” Whitney shouted, and quickly flagged a cab which stopped for her.
She boarded it and immediately texted Natalie.
*Are you alright?, Please, do well to come to to the hotel. Couldn’t find you so I left. Besides, I’m late. Love ya*
***
Whitney aligted and paid the driver. She quickly rushed into the hotel and went to the room.
Some peeps were hanging around, for the party to officially get started.
“Oh, Whitney!” Maureen squealed, seeing her best friend.
“Baby!” Whitney smiled, and Maureen hugged her.
“Today is gonna be lit” Maureen smiled, looking at her face.
“Swears…I can smell it” Whitney said, sniffing.
“Gotta change” Whitney yelped.
“Go go go girl!! Maureen patted her.
“Love ya!” Whitney blew a kiss to her while rushing.
“Mean it” Maureen winked, with a giggle.
“Awwnn…Baby charming!!” Maureen squealed, running to John who quickly caught around the waist, before placing a sweet kiss on her lips.
“Hey…Hey…Whitney?” Clark held her arm, as she was dashing into the adjoining room.
“Oh…Clark?, What’s up?” She panted.
“Uhm…What of Nat?, Where’s she?” Clark asked.
“Uh…She isn’t here?, She was with me earlier but suddenly, I couldn’t find her. ”
“Have you called her?”
“Yeah. I was worried then though but I brushed it aside and thought she might be with you… Prolly, she was tired of waiting??”
“Oh. Anyways, I’ve called her too but she isn’t picking. What’s up?, What did she say when you called her?”
“Likewise. She didn’t pick and she turned it off. I don’t know why”
“You know what?”
“Hmm…Hmm?”
“I’ll go look for her”
“Sure” Whitney smiled, and left. Clark also departed.
Whitney entered the room and quickly changed. She kept the box aside and when she opened the cupboard, she sighed in relief. The headphones was there.
Immediately, she came out, she met Desmond by the door. He smiled when he saw her.
Her face looked alluring and dazzling. Her blue skimpy dress, introduced her fair smooth back.
It length stopped right at her $h00ting, well figured @zz.
Her legs were on red long heel shoes, which had nets. The blue dress also had glitters, and her cleavages had to get exposed against her wishes.
She was on simple makeup, light tone powder with wine colored glossy lipstick.
She had a cute, tiny brown designer bag, hanging on her left shoulder.
“Des” She smiled, which brought out her beauty more and made Desmond heart flutter, of course.
“What’s up?” He smiled, back.
“I’m cool” She replied.
“You’re…pretty, well…as always”
“Oh, thank you. And you aren’t bad yourself. Dashing designers. Love your shoes!”
“Oh please. It was the trend for last year”
“Its great on you”
“Thanks anyways”
“Let’s go. Jayden might come anytime soon. We gotta be ready” Whitney smiled.
Desmond was watching her leave when she noticed he wasn’t coming.
“Desmond?” She whispered, and turned back.
All of the sudden, he rushed to her and threw his arms around her, hugging her tightly.
“Desmond” She tried pushing him off but his grip was quite strong.
“Please…” His voice hook, his hug tightening.
She swallowed.
“Just a second…please” He sniffed.
“What’s…What’s wrong?” She muttered, worriedly.
He smiled.
“I’m f_cking cold”
“What?” She chuckled and he sniffed again.
“Catarrh,,, so f_cking annoying”
“Well, its not like hugging me will subdue the cold or something”
“Oh no, You’re wrong. It will. You’re warm” He chuckled.
She scoffed, and hugged him as well.
“And 30 seconds gone!” She exclaimed and they broke it.
“Gosh. Desmond, you nearly suffocated me”
“Sorry” He smiled and scratched his head.
“Don’t worry. Its fine. Let’s go”
He nodded as they walked from the scene.
Just then, a girl walked from the toilet at the other side.
She gasped, dramatically.
“You’ve got to be kidding me! Desmond and Whitney are a thing?, She’s cheating on Jayden??, Desmond is one crazy friend! Thank goodness I took a shot” She giggled and checked the picture which she snapped, when the two were hugging.
“Cool. How about posting it?, The worls needs to know” She smirked, chewing her gum lightly.
“Done!”
MINUTES LATER**
“Gosh. Why isn’t she picking??” Jayden sighed, frustratedly.
Meanwhile, in the hotel room, Whitney was looking at her phone, giggling.
“He’s calling guys. Hope you’re ready. Hide. Hide” Whitney said.
“Where is Natalie by the way. Clark too?” Maureen asked.
“They aren’t here yet?, Goodness. I’ll give them a call later” Whitney answered, and Maureen nodded.
Whitney called Jayden.
“Hello, baby”
“Where are you!” He snapped, with a very angry tone and she felt her heart leap.
“Milkshake. What’s it?”
“No…No…don’t you call me that now”
“Jayden?-
“I guess you called me to the hotel after making out with Desmond, huh?”
“The f_ck. Jayden, what are you talking about?, Wait…Were are you?”
“I’m out of here. You keep doing this Whitney!” He said, and the call hung.
“Wait,,, What’s going on?, Why…Why is he-
“f_ck” Maureen gasped, pressing her phone.
“What?, What?” Whitney asked.
She noticed the eyes of others were on her now and it wasn’t funny.
Maureen showed Whitney her phone and a low gasp escaped from her mouth.
“The f_ck is this??” Whotney asked no one in particular.
? You ask me!
? Lets get out of here, guys
? Pathetic slut
? Cheat!!
? I thought she loved Jayden but I guess we were wrong. She’s all over Desmond
? And Jayden loved her, so much
“Huh! No! No! You guys got it all wrong. I love Jayden, okay!! I…Desmond…we…we aren’t a thing. I just… We just…” She couldn’t say anything anymore.
Instead, Tears flowed down as she watched the rest leave.
“Babe…” Maureen came close to her.
“Please, can you leave too?, I…I wanna be alone” She muttered, sadly.
Maureen sighed and nodded. She went to John, they talked for a bit and finally left.
“Hey Whitney…” Desmond tried
holding her arm but she jerked it away.
She glared at Desmond, intently.
“It all your fault!!” She said, strongly and left him, going back into the room.
“Its all ruined. It’s my fault” He thought, sadly before leaving too.
