Chapter 11
“I want a new look” I replied as she looked at me in what I would call shock of a lifetime, you know when something close to impossible happens, that look you would have, yep, yep that was the look Tiffany had.“Say what?” she asked in utter disbelief.It is not like I’m stressing or something or maybe I’m asking her to do something out of her power. It was something she enjoyed doing, dolling people up was like her thing, she was known to fix the saddest of girls and make them princesses overnight, that was her gift I would say, so I was doing her a favor actually, she was going to have another gig to do.Davis made series of comments to me these few days and I wanted him to feel shocked the next time he sees me, no, no, no, that came out wrong, I meant I wanted those that laughed at me be wowed when next they see me not like I had Davis particularly in my mind, it was general.Does getting a good life mean staying away from things that makes life interesting?I mean I do not need to be unfair to myself throughout my life time just so I have a perfect future waiting for me. I necessarily do not have to look like a grandma to get my dreams achievedAll these thoughts ran through my mind as I kept hearing echoes of what Davis had said. That was why I finally decided to change myself a little, sorry I mean that was part of the reason.“Hey Tiffany make me look pretty” I said to Tiffany again as she stared surprisingly at me, I knew she found it hard to comprehend what she heard.“Charity I’m not sure I heard you correctly” she replied as her facial expression still looked confused.“I said make me look pretty, I don’t want to be the girl that looks naïve anymore, I want to look attractive Tiffany, like you always do, I do not want to be looked at like I’m a male, I want to be a proper woman” I responded as I flipped my hair and removed my glasses“But are you sure about this? I mean you are not being pressured or anything? What about your mom? I mean what will she do if she finds out” she asked still looking puzzled.“She will know her precious peach is not as innocent as she thought” Sam entered the room“You I think I will like this new change; you will not get to be Ms. Perfect anymore” she added as she chuckled.“Can you not be nice to me for once, just once” I replied“She doesn’t have to know, the look you’ll give me will stay in the college when I’m going home or going to visit her I’ll go back to the naïve Charity” I replied Tiffany.“So you are sure about this and you are okay with it?” She asked“Yep” I replied as I flashed her an assuring smile and nodded then She smiled and nodded too“I love this new energy babe” she responded as she hugged me from behind.Deep down I was actually scared, the fear of living m y comfort zone, the zone I have been acquainted with all my life, I mean for as long as I remembered, I was not made to dress like a proper lady, it was always, book first everything else can come later, so I was scared of trying out the change. What if it does not turn out well and it ends up as a waste of time and I look as unattractive as I have always looked or even worse, or what if proper lady looks is not my thing? The most scry feeling of them all is mummy dearest finding out what I had done, how would she react, will she happy I was finally considering my looks, or would she be upset I ruined how she made me look all my life? I was so anxious but I had to swallow all the anxiety and looked it up in a chest in my stomach if I wanted the whole glow up to actually hold.“So, what’s first?” I asked her while feeling both anxious and excited.“First we go shopping” she replied as she had this unusual smile. She usually has that smile whenever she decides to dedicate her entire day to shopping and guess what that is today.“Oh no”“Oh yes”. *******We spent the whole day shopping for clothes I would have never worn before, we bought skimpy skirts, tight blouses, trousers, hills, converses and many more, I got contacts, yep my days of glasses wearing had come to an end, we visited the spa too and work was done on my face and nails and when we were done at the spa, she suggested we went to the salon to get haircuts to cement the whole glow up and yep I got a new haircut yayy. ******“Woah Charity your new haircut looks amazing” Sam commended for the first time, wow.“Told ya” Tiffany whispered behind me“Wow so you do know my name” I said surprised.“Do not let it get into your head, I do not like you, I like the haircut” she concluded as she left and I smiled silently.“Okay, okay princess, tomorrow is school and that is where we debut new sexy looking Charity, so you have to get so rest, we do not need eye bags on our debut day, now go freshen up and go straight to bed princess” Tiffany spoke’“Thank you” I replied as she muttered you are welcome. *******I was very tired from engagements we had that day that I overslept and I didn’t hear my alarm ring.“Wake up princess it’s morning already” Tiffany tapped me awake“I know princesses have beauty sleeps and all but you are running late for school my love” She continued as I remembered it was morning. I quickly jumped up from the bed as she chuckled.“I will be on my way now, I would have loved to watch your debut but I am running late for a class, but remember do not let take their eyes off you, bye princess” Tiffany as she waved, I did same and she left.I quickly started preparing for school and when I was done, I left for school, I was late for the first class on basics of law. I entered the class in the middle of the professor’s teaching“I’m so sorry I’m late sir I overslept” I was explaining when I realized that the whole class was out of breath“woah”“woahhhh”“Who is that”“woahh”I noticed that the professor too was startled as he stared at me for about 5 minutes before he spoke.“Um um, Ms. Goldtown, it is fine grab a seat”. He replied as he stared at me while I walked into the class.“Wait that is Charity? wow” I could still here whispers.“Hey soda water you can sit here” Derick signaled me as I noticed he had stolen my spot and probably had reserved a seat for me, I looked around and found no other vacant seat so I had no other option than to sit with Derick.“Ms. Goldtown grab a seat” the professor spoke as I quickly sat down as the class resumed.“I believe our fate is intertwined, we keep getting chances to have conversations to get to know each other” he said as he winked and I sighed he brought out his hands in an attempt to get a handshake from me.“Let us start over again, should we? I am Derick Mclean” he said as he brought out the hand.“Don’t push it pretty boy” I replied as I snapped his hand out of my face.He smiled and then said “Wow she called me pretty, awwn she thinks I’m pretty, I’m glad you sound like yourself today soda and yeah you look astonishing today” he concluded as I smiled silently. ******After class everyone wanted to speak to me, everyone wanted to get my number, I mean me?? I was literally being rushed, lol. I was a bit shy as it was the first time, I was experiencing such, all my life people mostly ignored me like I was invisible but the time I was the only ray of light shining and everyone wanted to get a glimpse of it. The whole class was all over me, I managed to maneuver my way out of the class and I headed outside, I was heading to the cafteria when Derick followed me.“Please permit me to go with you soda water” he spoke“NO”“I will not bother you, I promise, I just want to eat with you”“NO”“I have benefits too; I will lecture you on whatever course you want”“Yuck, no”“Pleaseeeee”“Hmph, if I let you will you stop bothering me?” I asked“Yeah”“Fine”He went with me to the cafeteria, and we got food sat together and ate.“You know you look very beautiful while eating” he spoke“Haha very funny, if you do not shut up then I will move to another table” I replied“No do not, but I am being serious though, you are very pretty” he continued“Thank you” I said awkwardly then someone dragged me up.“What do you think you are doing” Davis spoke.“Wow” he added as he analyzed my look, he looked at me carefully“You look b….”“How I look is none of your business” I quickly cut in as I snapped my hands from his.“And why are you here again” I asked“What are you doing here with him” he asked as he looked at Derick“It is none of your business” I replied as I was about to sit back down when he grabbed my hands and started dragging me away.“Let go of my hand, let go, let go” I screamed as he dragged me then someone intercepted and held his hand.“Did you not hear her? She said you should let go of her” it was Derick“And who called you here” Davis asked as he attempted to removed his hands“She said let go” Derick said as he snapped his hand off me and pulled me to his back.“Stay out of this and leave now” Davis added as he walked up to Derick“And if I do not?” Derick asked as Davis pushed him.“That is enough guys, Davis who invited you here anyways, why come pick a fight where you are not invited and Derick I did not ask for your help, the both of you are impossible you especially Davis, lets go Derick”. I concluded as I dragged him away ******“Hey Charrie, would you like to attend my party this night, it’s my birthday “a blonde guy that seemed popular with the amount of people followed him asked“Huh?” I asked“Yeah, please I would like it if you do” he continued“Okay, yeah sure I would love to” I concluded there and I was about leaving when“Hey let me escort you” Derick spoke“No thank you” I replied“pleasee I will keep bothering you if you do not agree”“Hmph why are you such a pain in the ass?”“Cos it’s a pretty ass” he replied and I chuckled“Fine” I repliedHe strolled with me from school to the hostel gate“Okay this is the boundary you can’t go any further, go home now” I spoke“Oh, bummer I enjoyed walking with you, we’ll see at the party, right?” he asked“I don’t know” I replied as I went insideIt was the first time I was actually invited to a party; I was so anxious; I could hear my heart beating so fast that the speed can out run lightening. I was so confused that I brought out all the clothes in my closet.“Hey princess what is wrong with you” Tiffany asked“I got invited to a birthday party, the celebrant invited me” I said“Oh, Ron’s party, yeah I’m going to” she added“So chill party butterfly, what’s the issue at hand” She asked“I don’t know what to wear” I answered“Oh, yeah that’s a big problem you have to look nice” Sam spoke“And I apologize for being so hard on you since”.“It’s fine” I replied as I smiled“Now if the both of done are done with your little reunion, lets help her get ready Sam” Tiffany concluded *****By the end of that evening, I walked to the mirror to see how I looked, I was putting on a velvet red empire style gown with a tempting slit at the front, my left leg, the slit showed most of my lap, it had shiny stones, it was body fitted that my fine curves were brought out, it had an opening at the back that lead to the waist. It really brought out the color of my skin and the shape of my body.“Wow girlfriend you look amazing” Tiffany commented“Wow” Sam added“You too Tiffy” I replied“Now people we have a party to crash” Sam concluded *****We got there and as we stepped out of the car, I swear I saw eyes falling on the ground staring at us, we were the stars of the party.“They look amazing man”“Damn”“The one the red dress is fire”We walked our way through into the party and we sat down. I left to go get a drink.“I’ll have whiskey” I told the bartender“Oh, look what we have here, soda water drinks whiskey too” A familiar voice said from the shadows as he approached me, it was Derick.“I don’t think I have the strength to listen to you today Derick” I replied“Woah, you look breath taking” he replied“Well, I did not come for you, I came to grab a drink as well” he sat down and ordered whiskey tooThe saying that nothing brings people together than a glass of whiskey is accurate, cos Derick and I started talking and laughing, we drank and drank and drank until we were drunk. ******“I want to go home” I whined“I’ll take you home” an unfamiliar voice saidAlthough I didn’t recognize the voice, when he came closer I saw it was the dude that invited me over, Ron.“Oh, Ron hi”“Come on I will take you home” he said as he held my waist“Let go of her waist” Derick said weakly as he was drunk too“Hold my hand not my waist” I said weakly as he dragged me out of the bar. I went with him as I thought he wanted to take me home, then he changed route and instead of walking towards the lot, he walked into a room.“Whe..re a..re you taking me, leave me alone” I shuttered as I spoke While he started dragging me with force.“Leave me leave meeee” I was screaming, then he throw me on the bed.“You looked very beautiful” he said as I continued screaming weakly.I tried to stand up and leave then he grabbed and waist and started caressing it, he was dragging me towards the bed when someone grabbed my hand and snapped his grip away and pulled me away from him.I couldn’t see properly so I didn’t know who it was, he chased the man away and then turned towards me. It was Davis Garraway.Chapter 12“No Davis we should not be doing this, we should not be doing this Davis no” he kissed me so passionately as he looked me in the eye and I could see the smirk in his eyes.I wanted it too and although I struggled a little I finally gave in, he kissed my neck and was unhooking my bra…“Charity!!!!” Tiffany Shouted“Wake up Charity, you asked me to wake you up you mentioned something about a big test today” she continued“You usually don’t need people waking you up or did you have something strong to drink at the party?” she asked“was it a dream” I said out loud “huh” Tiffany asked as she looked puzzled “Oh, it’s nothing” I concluded as I looked away to prevent further questions.“What are you talking about?” she asked confused“Nothing, Nothing” I said as I got up“It does not seem like nothing”“I had a bad dream okay, now you better get going before you are late” I said as I tried to end the conversation.“Okay, if you say so, Sam already left earlier, there is cerea
Chapter 13Then he kissed me. Davis Garraway kissed me; he pulled me closer and ran his hands through my hair.“You have silky hair” he commended as he kissed my neck, his hands made it’s way to my waist as he held it so tight, he pulled in again as he kissed me again, this time his lips and mine were locked as his tongue explored my mouth. He placed his other hand on my laps as he caressed it and slowly went upwards towards the region the towel had covered, I was already in that mood as I could also feel his erection. His hands made it’ s way underneath the towel as he dragged me towards the bed, he left me and was attempting to pull off his clothes when I do not know why but I pushed him off of me.“What are you doing Davis?” I asked with my eyes still closed“You are making me feel things I should not feel” he responded“We shouldn’t be doing this Davis, leave this room” I said as I stood up to walk away, he brought forth his hands to drag me back and caught the towel, the towel f
Chapter 14The party was going well not until Davis and Andera appeared. “Wow, they actually look fire” Jordan spoke as Davis and Andera made their way to our table“Hey what’s popping guys” Davis spoke as he exchanged the normal guy’s pleasantries: handshakes and knuckle chops.“Dude, you look fire” Mark added“For reals man, I mean I’m the birthday girl but you just had to come and steal my shine man” Jordan added as he shook hands with Davis.“I mean what can I do, grand entrances are kind of a Davis thing” he added“And I see you brought company, the both of you together?” Jordan asked as he looked at Andera“Well, we are no..” Davis was about to speak“Yes, yes we are” Andera immediately answered“I knew it”, they looked it” Anna spoke“Uhh, Davis but I always gave you green light” Sweedy said dramatically as everyone laughed“But for reals man she is gorgeous” Jordan added “Well not as gorgeous as your hyperbolic statement suggests” A voice spoke from the background as the fig
Chapter 15“You are welco….” I was about to complete the statement when someone grabbed my arm and dragged me outside.“Let go of me” I said We got outside a few meters away from the house where the party was being conducted when Davis released his grip on my arm. Yep you heard me, the person that dragged me out of the party was the famous devil, Davis Garraway.“What is your problem dude you always act like a psycho and ouch” I said as I gripped my arm in pain.“Why did you dance with him?” he asked.“I really do not think I owe you any explanations” I replied as I turned to leave, he grabbed my arm again“I asked you a question, why did you dance with him?? You let him hold your waist and the both of you were too close” he said“How is that your business Davis? how does it concern you Garraway? when did me dancing with someone become your business Davis Garraway?” I replied as I snapped my arm out of his grip.“Listen do not ever in your life touch me again Mr. hit and run” I conc
Chapter 16The night was not young anymore, it was 1:15, but I still could not fall asleep, I turned and turned on the bed, I got up and paced round the room.“Charity you are not a night crawler, my love get some sleep your pacing is disturbing my sleep” Tiffany spoke“Sorry” I whispered in replyI went back to the bed and I laid back in, I looked at the ceiling and thought of how undecisive my life seemed at that moment, I was turning around to know if I can get some sleep when my phone vibrated. Who could be sending me a text at this time of the night? I thought people are meant to be sleeping now. I agreed to ignore it as I thought it was maybe a reminder I had set for something. I closed my eyes with the hope of falling asleep, then the phone vibrated again.Does it mean someone cannot get some rest, who the fuck is it anyways, sub con spoke, as I reached for it and I saw and I saw a message from an unknown number.“Who is this” I whispered as I opened the message“Hey, soda w
Chapter 17I had goosebumps all over my body as I walked away from him. I got to my bed and I laid on it and the scenes kept flashing through my eyes you have pretty eyes goblin, I like them too. Wait what are you doing? the familiar voice that always stops me from my thoughts came in. I’m doing nothing I replied, are you thinking about Davis? Davis Garraway? Sub con asked. I rolled my eyes at her I’m not. Wow you really are, I thought you hate him, I did, huh I mean I do; I do. You do, and you are thinking of someone that just asked you if you are scared, he will hit run you again like he did before. You are just unbelievable.I just felt shock over what just happened I mean why did he say all those things he did to me, they all sounded sincere as he said all of them and why didn’t he try to retaliate after I gave him a piece of my mind, normal Davis would say something to try spite me as well, but he did not do that not seem a little off to you? Whether off or not still does not c
Chapter 18Davis Garraway and I grew up together, we were always together. Or technically he was always following me around in his ploy to taunt me.“Hey goblin where are you going to”“Goblin your hair is stuck in that door”“Now you goblin will carry my bag for me for 2 weeks”In the space of almost his lifetime that I have known him, he had never offered to see me politely it was always a commanding statement where he makes it look like I am his property and he bought me on discount sales. Everything he had wanted from me he ensured he got it by hook or crook, I mean we can use that night as an example. And then suddenly he stops a black BMW in front of me and requests to see me, he does not tell me or tell me it is fixed and he does not want disappointments, but he requests to see me, well that’s a first. Then he even offers to buy me ice cream just so I will come. And then why is he so upset that I’m going out with Derick, I mean he has a girlfriend, practically she is not his gi
Chapter 19Chillz n more, probably the biggest ice cream parlor in the whole North America, with branches everywhere. With the headquarters in California, yep California, Oakland precisely. Oakland houses the headquarter and the most expensive ice cream parlor in all of North America. That’s why I told you it was an honor to be studying at a school in Oakland.“We are arriving Chillz n more ice cream parlor just few miles left” the car’s GPS tracker spokeYep, he was taking me to Chillz n more, I was surprised and speechless. Like why would someone waste the money, time and effort of taking just anyone to Chillz n more for a supposed apology. And it is not like I am his girlfriend or something, neither am I his friend. Well technically you are, sub con spoke. I am not we are not friends have you forgotten? Well the both of are basically seatmates, you sit together in class and go to cafeteria together and you are technically sitting in his wine red SUV as we speak going with him on an
