PIZZA GIRL
ISAAC
“What do you think you are trying to do? Turn my mother’s back on me?” I heard Enoch ask behind me as I sat at the bar.
I turned my back breathing out loud.
“I won’t gain anything by doing that.” I replied sipping my drink.
“Of course you would. At least, you would try acting like the good guy so as to extract money from her.” He said and I grew vexed.
“Enoch your personality stinks a lot. And trust me, you wouldn’t want to try shit with me.” I said and he grinned walking close to me.
“Or else what” he asked and I smriked.
“It’s quite obvious you haven’t eaten any spoiled thing, or probably garbage, which would make your bones strong. So don’t get yourself killed.” I said standing up and walking away.
“You feel big right? Because Diana took you from the street and made you look like an human. I wonder what she sees in a douchebag like you.” He said and I stopped facing him.
“You shouldn’t have brought up her matter, what Diana does is none of your business. What will finally kill you is if you try shit with her. Gosh, I will so kill you.”
“And I don’t even think I would need to kill you myself because before I show up, she has killed you already. So I would advice you stayed away from her. For your own good.” I said turning my back to walking away and then I stopped.
“And one more thing. Don’t ever come to my face acting like you are one strong rich guy. You wouldn’t want to lose your balls.” I said turning my back to leave and I stopped again.
“And your mother, she is a great woman. And she deserves someone better, so try acting sensible, at least if not for yourself, but for her.” I said finally walking away.
I really felt great talking to him like that. He needed it, cos he was trying to act like a bully which I wouldn’t certainly accept.
“Bravo.” Diana said approaching me with a very beautiful smile.
“You saw that?” I asked and she nodded.
“He looked quite shocked when you talked to him, I am sure you really hit him on the spot.” She said looking at him and I turned my back to see he was staring at us.
“Let’s forget about him, he isn’t worth the time okay?” I asked and she nodded.
“So what have you taken?” She asked and we began to walk.
“Few cups of wine, you?” I asked and she sighed.
“All I have taken this night is the truth. The fact that I have been lied to all my life.” She said and I felt sad.
“I am sorry Diana. I forced you here and then this happens. Am so sorry.” I said sadly and she smiled holding his hand.
“No Isaac. If I didn’t come, I wouldn’t have met with Dad, heard the truth. All these wouldn’t have happened. And I should thank you for that.” She said smiling and I kissed the back of her hand.
“So nothing to take yet?” I asked and she shook her head.
“I think am fine. I just can’t wait to get home.” She said and I smiled.
“The party is just starting.” I said and she smiled.
“The party has started and ended for me.” She said and I nodded.
“So we leaving?” I asked and she looked at me.
“If you don’t want to, it’s fine. I will just sit around the corner.” She said and I held her back.
“This party and Birthday thing is meaningless to me if you aren’t happy or there to rejoice with me. Let’s go home.” I said smiling.
“No Isaac, it’s still your birthday. You should enjoy yourself.” She said and we heard feets approach us.
“Hey Children. Don’t you want to dance?” Mom asked.
“No Mom. I have had enough tonight.” Diana said to mom and Uncle John.
“Mom we were just leaving. Diana isn’t really in a good mood, and for me, this isn’t really my thing you know.” I said shaking my head and she smiled.
“It’s very cool, you can go, and I will be in the house soon too.” She said and we nodded.
“Or maybe not. Can’t I take her for the night?” Uncle John asked us.
“Deal. She goes with you. Mom see you tomorrow.” Diana and I chorused making all of us laugh.
“So you are going to give me up just like that?” She asked and Diana went closer to her.
“I know you really want to go.” She said loud enough for us to hear.
“Diana.” She called widening her eyes and we laughed again. Uncle John looks really happy.
I looked up and I saw Enoch’s mother staring at us and smiling widely.
“Excuse me.” I said leaving the family to meet her.
“Hey Ma’am, you aren’t joining the rest of them?” I asked and she smiled.
“Not really. Didn’t want to come, but Enoch kept persuading me to show up.” She said smiling.
“Oh. Actually I am leaving, so I thought it would be polite to say Goodnight before I go.” I said and she smiled.
“That’s so sweet of you Isaac.” She said and I nodded turning back but she stopped me holding my hand.
“Do you want to come to the house? Just for some chats, remember I owe you a story about myself. I got interrupted.” She said and I smiled faintly.
“That may not be a good idea. Enoch will be so mad.” I said and she shook her head.
“I will take care of him. I just really want to share my story with you. You opened up to a total stranger, I know I can trust you.” She said and I stared at her smiling.
“Okay fine. Day?” I asked.
“Tomorrow at 4pm. Please come alone, I don’t want to get interrupted again.” She said looking at Diana and I smiled.
“It’s fine. I will come alone, but I am sure she will surely bombard me with questions when I want to leave.” I said.
“You can tell her you are coming to see me. Just don’t tell her what we are or what we will be discussing.” She said and I furrowed my brows.
“Okay.” I said nodding and I saw her point her head. I looked back and I saw Diana waiting at the main door.
“Goodnight Ma’am.” I Said.
“Danielle.” She said and I smiled.
“That’s a wonderful name Ma’am Danielle.” I said and she nodded as I walked up to where Diana was standing.
“Shall we?” I asked bowing my head and she smiled holiday my hand as we left the party.
TBC….
Who else is eager to hear Danielle’s story??
