||AVA'S POV||
It was my twenty-second birthday. I was so excited. I couldn't wait to celebrate it with my boyfriend and my best friend. The fun part is that we were going to hit the club together.
It may be weird to others about how excited I was about my birthday. I have never celebrated my birthday and neither have I ever been to the club. It has been on my bucket list to celebrate my birthday and go clubbing as well.
I'm not like other spoiled rich kids, my parents were strict,I was only allowed to focus on my studies, I don't go to parties, I don't go shopping either. I was only allowed to shop once in three months and that was because I had an assistant to do shopping for me. After classes at school, my parents hired a home lesson teacher. All my parents wanted was an intelligent daughter to take over their company. I lived a boring life although it paid off. I graduated from the university with first-class and I've always topped other students in school no one ever dared to compete with me.
I put on a skimpy black shimmery gown, a simple heart pendant necklace, wore light makeup, a white heels and a white purse to match. I pressed the power button of my phone on the dressing table, it was exactly 5:30pm.
ForI smiled to myself at the thought of dancing sexily with my boyfriend.
I was about to open my car when I heard my mum say,"Don't forget to pick up Zane she said she wasn't going to leave with her car"
I looked at the top floor to see her staring at me from her window.
"Alright I would bye" I waved her and got into the car
Zane has been my best friend since kindergarten. She has never snitched on me. That's why I love that bitch!.
I drove out briskly, stopped at Zane's house to pick her up and then drove to my boyfriend's house. On getting there, I saw a blue Lexus car parked on my usual spot.
"Who's car is this?" I mumbled.
Zane shook her head.
My boyfriend doesn't own a car, and his friends don't like Lexus and my boyfriend doesn't like blue cars either. It can't be his nor his friend's.
I got out of the car, leaving Zane behind.
I knocked on the door several times but there was no response.
"He's not responding. '' I turned to Zane, who had been staring at me.
I guess he's sleeping. He likes sleeping whenever he is bored, how do I get in ?. I rolled my eyes
"Didn't you come with your key?" She raised an eyebrow.
"Oh" I closed my eyes and tapped my forehead.
I almost forgot that I had a spare key to his house. I went back to my car to get the key.
I opened the door, and entered his sitting room. I found a ladies pant on the floor.I scanned the sitting room to find a matching chair, his belt on the table, and his shirt was on the side stool. Eww!.
I walked upstairs to find his room opened. I stood on the door post and casually leaned on the door post, my eyes were flooded with tears as I watched my boyfriend banging a blonde lady from behind.
' His love for blonde girls' I rolled my eyes at the thought. I was blonde too.
"What are you doing here?" The blonde lady asked, noticing my presence.
"What does it look like I'm doing?" I smirked, placing my hand on my waist.
My boyfriend pulled out of her immediately, the blonde lady grabbed the bed sheet and covered her nakedness while my shameless ex! Boyfriend struggled into an ash sweatpants.
"I'm sorry babe" He walked up to me and tried to touch me when I pushed him as hard as I could.
"Oh please spare me that" I yelled.
"Who is she?" The blonde lady glared at him, not without giving me a stern look.
I turned around to wipe the tears that had dropped with the back of my hand.
"Monica don't interfere!" He glared.
I was about to walk away when he grabbed my wrist. I really wanted to slap this fool!.
"Noah Adams" I cleared my throat and turned to look at him. "You are so ugly when you hit a lady from the back"
He bit his lower lip and scratched his head, I flapped my eyelashes at him.
"I'm sorry it was a mis_" He tried to reach for my wrist again!
Oh my goodness!.
"Go tell that to your mama" I hissed not without giving my EX boyfriend and the stupid lady a stern look.
I walked through the door. "I would help you with this" I shut the door.
I walked downstairs, dropped the stupid key he gave to me on the table and walk back to my car.
"Where's Noah?" Zane asked me as I sat on the driver's side of the car.
"He's inside" I forced a smile, and played a break up song with the car stereo.
Zane kept asking me why my EX BOYFRIEND didn't tag along but I kept mute.
We soon arrived at the club, and I packed in the parking lot.
"Meet me at the bar" Zane said seeing how reluctant I was to get down from the car.
I nodded.
"Later" She got down from the car.
When I was sure she went far, I held my steering wheel and bowed my head. My eyes were flooded with tears, I raised my head to see couples acting all lovey dovey, I kept honking out of anger.
Someone knocked on my window twice. I rolled down a bit to see who it was.
"Why do you keep hooting?" He queried.
"That's none of your business" I sniffed.
"You just spoiled my fun!" He yelled, banging the roof of my car.
"Huh?!" I raised a brow.
"I was in the middle of something in my car. You turned me off, '' he glared.
"Since she was still turned on you should have continued" I rolled my eyes.
"You're a crazy young woman!"
Whatever!, I rolled up my car, turned on the light in my car, searched for the wipes I always keep in my car.
There's always wipes, tissue paper and hand sanitizer in my car. I can't do without any of it.
I took a mirror from my purse,wiped off my entire makeup and made a redo.
I got out of the car, locked my door. When I was about to leave, I felt someone grabbing my hand tightly and pulling me to himself making our lips meet.
"Are you crazy!" I yelled.
"It seems you want to continue from where she stopped," he smirked.
I didn't know when I slapped his face.
He released his hand and held his face. "Are you stupid?!"
"No baby I'm tired of meeting with stupid people" I walked away before he could say a word.
I sat down at the bar, I couldn't find Zane and I didn't bother looking for her. With how crowded the place was, I don't need anyone to tell me how difficult it would be to look for her.
I ordered a bottle of alcohol, I haven't tasted alcohol before, I guess frustration made me ask for one.
I haven't drank up to half when I became drunk.
"Hey damsel" a man held my hand.
"Hmm" I smiled and bit my lower lips. "What do you want?"
"I want you honey," he replied.
His words made me remember Noah he says he wants me whenever he's turned on, I haven't seen a reason to have sex then, I felt I was too young for that I guess that's why he was banging that blonde lady.
I pulled my hand from his grip and turned to the table and sipped from my glass of alcohol.
He stood behind me and held my waist. "Stop playing hard to get"
I was going to say something when someone pushed the man away and stood beside me. "Let her be"
His voice was so familiar, I have heard it somewhere.
"Who… who are you?!" The man pointed at the angel that had come to save me.
"Her husband"
I spat out the alcohol in my mouth on the crazy man. It wasn't intentional though but this angle should have at least said boyfriend rather he was claiming the position of a husband.
"I'm sorry" the man bowed slightly and walked away.
"Husband?" I turned to look at the young man.
He smirked. "I just save your ass honey"
"Are you the dude from the parking lot?"
"Yes you slapped your future helper unknown to you" He sat on a chair next to me.
"Hmm" I looked away.
"You owe me" he waved for a waiter to attend to him.
"Weird" I pouted my lips.
The alcohol was having an effect on me, I don't know what I was doing any longer, I was just talking.
"Take me home" I caressed his laps and moved my hand down to his inner thigh.
"Don't be silly" he pulled my hand away.
"What? I always did that to Zane" I rolled my eyes.
"Huh?! Are you a lesbian?" He queried.
I nodded, shook my head and then nodded again.
"I see" he clicked his tongue and rolled his eyes. "I would book a taxi for you, where do you live?"
"I want to live in your…" I laughed.
I held his hand, pulled him closer for a kiss. My lips were really close to his when Zane pulled me away from him and slapped him.
"What was that for?" He almost yelled holding his cheek.
"She's drunk, don't take advantage of it" She helped me stand up, picked my purse and my phone.
"I… I…" he tried to say.
Zane walked away unwilling to listen to what he had to say.
"Thanks babe" I smiled leaning on her.
"I would drive you home"
The next morning, I woke up with a headbanging headache. I hissed in pain, holding my head.
I heard a knock on my door.
"Yes?" I managed to say.
"Come down stairs for breakfast" I heard my personal maid; Helen, say.
"I'm not hungry" I replied and laid back in bed.
The door went open before I could close my eyes to go back to sleep.
"What's wrong with you?" Zane queried.
"Nothing," I replied, covering my face with the duvet.
"You've been acting weird since we left Noah's place, you're making your mum worried" She said with a small voice.
"I need to shower up now" I stood up and went to my bathroom.
I got out to see my mum and Zane sitting on my bed.
"Seriously?" I raised an eyebrow.
"Yes dear, what's the problem? Did you break up with him? Did he cheat on you?" My mum queried.
I burst into tears and sat in between my mum and Zane.
"I saw him banging a lady from the back" I revealed crying even harder.
"It's okay dear, you would find someone else. This is the reason your dad didn't want you to have a boyfriend earlier because he felt you wouldn't be able to handle things like this" mum caressed my hair while I rested my head on her shoulder.
"We dated for only two years," I cried.
"Stop crying you should have told me earlier, we would have beaten their asses up" Zane said angrily.
I wish I could hit him hard right now, he always had a way of mentioning Monica in our conversations, I never got to see her until yesterday. He has always claimed that she was an annoying freak who wants to be in a relationship with him, I always laughed over it because I felt it was normal to have one annoying freak in your life that wants to date you by all possible means, they always claim to love you genuinely.
"One heart break is another step forward to your true love" mum held my hand. "In less than three months you would start working in the company. Your father trust your abilities, don't let this heartbreak destabilise you"
"How about I start working today" I sat properly to look at my mother.
"No dear you should know that your father can be very strict with his orders, he wouldn't want you to disagree with him for any reason, just have fun for now so that you can focus on work when it's time okay?" Mum advised.
I smiled "thank you"
"Wipe your face, it's all wet and snotty," mum complained.
My Dad and I agreed that I would start working in the company three months after my birthday. I don't think I can wait any longer but with Zane on my side, it would be a bit easier.
