"I need to think about this." She said to him after he responded.Whatever his response had been really got her emotional that all she could think about was to figure out a way to dodge the entire thing. She needed time but deep down, Vanessa already had her answer. She wanted to play the hard bird now and nut to crack as she looked at Kevin steadily."Sure. But do not take long. We should figure this out." He said to her and winked."I promise." She said."I would be praying for something positive though." He chipped in and she smiled widely at him. Clearly, he had her totally floored.Vanessa had turned away to leave when she paused suddenly, forcing Kevin to begin to wonder what it was that had caused her to halt. She made her way back to him suddenly as she stood on her tippy toes and placed a kiss on his cheeks before embracing him briefly and walking away.Kevin watched her walk away and back into the house to rejoin the party as he raised his drink to his lips. He grinned misch
Vanessa made her way back to the party and she found Mickey waiting by the door with a weird glance on his face. They clearly did not want to arouse suspicions as they did not attempt to get close to each other when he brought out his phone and wave it. It was a clear signal that she should get hers. Vanessa frowned as she took her phone out of her purse just as his first message came in."You've betrayed us right?" He texted."And what's that supposed to mean, do I look like one that would do that?" She responded."Vanessa, I've known you for the selfish person you have been for years and I know whatever you do is always for your personal benefits. You do not expect that I would fall for your talks about vengeance easily when all you desire is to be with him and regain your popularity." He dissed her.Vanessa really felt like walking over to him and dealing him with a slap although, a part of her did wonder if this was all he thought of her as. A cheap whore who was weaving her way t
Kevin had bid Omar bye and returned to the party just when the music had suddenly gone off.Apparently, Melinda had spoken just when the number ended and they had been in the act of changing the song when she spoke up suddenly. She could not believe she had spoken so loudly even as everyone was looking including Vanessa. The hired DJ has gone with the question on the minds of everyone as he did not hit play when Kevin entered and all eyes fell on him.He had been traumatized in the past with bad things befalling him whenever people stares this way at him and there was no single eye in the room lacking judgement within them. He looked around and could see the horror in Vanessa's eyes as she stared at him prompting him to wonder what she had done this time around.Amelia had been in the act of grabbing a drink when it happened and then she saw a chance to save his reputation. She suddenly started off to him as she stretched out both hands."Oh, Kevin bunny, where have you been?" She sai
The party was ended and it was right back to trying to figure out what Vanessa was up to. Kevin retired to the enclaves of his big bedroom which now provided him with the excitement of wanting to sleep all through on it.His phone chimed as a text message came in from Vanessa herself. Speak of the devil who apparently would never stop trying to ruin his life and he would have mentioned her straight on."Kevin, you're toying with me." She texted.He sighed. How on earth had she still not managed to learn from her past mistakes and remained headstrong on making life miserable for others. Clearly, she did not want to acknowledge ever that she was at fault and would rather stick to blame games.Well, he had his head full of plans he had mapped out for her and how he was going to make her pay and remain shut up forever and now was the time."I have not the slightest idea what you're talking about." He responded to her.For a moment, there was no message or signs of getting any messages fro
"Are you going to date Vanessa?" Allen suddenly asked right in front of his sister who was awake on the bed the instant Kevin entered."Who's Vanessa?" Maria suddenly asked.Kevin's heart sunk as he did not want to jeopardize his friendship with the soft girl. He had been looking forward to her getting well really soon but it had come to his notice that Allen would rather that he keeps off his sister. Everyone now saw him as a big player and no one wanted their family member getting entangled with him."Vanessa is his girlfriend." Allen said.Maria's eyes opened wide with shock."Ex girlfriend." Kevin corrected him."The why were you outside with her for a greater part of your party and then you hang out with that strange guy and take another lady upstairs." Allen said to him.Kevin could tell from the stern look on his face why he was doing this. It was his way of rupturing whatever it was that seemed to be growing between the two. He wanted no nurturing of surreptitious emotions tha
Of all times to suddenly pop up like some quiz, the system had to choose now. Kevin decided to be above it and ignore it this time. He did not want to give off the same vibe he had given to Allen before Maria as well with regards to his attraction to her."Don't worry about Allen, he's actually being normal." Kevin said to her."Wow, I do not remember my brother being so overbearing. He even allowed Barry and Niguel play with me." She said to him.Kevin smiled to himself knowing well what the reasons were. Barry and Niguel had not started harbouring the sort of emotions he was growing towards her and certainly would be safer around her. This moment, he was actually being tempted to reach over and kiss her squarely on the lips but then, he had to restrain himself knowing well enough that it would sum up to extra trouble with Allen should he walk in. Besides, he had no idea yet if she felt the same way towards him as he did to her. Kevin would pretty much stay away from trouble at this
Kevin's heart had done a triple flip when he had suddenly seen Allen standing there. The question of whether or not the latter would have caught them had he lingered or if he already overheard was there in his head.Alright, now he owed the system a big one for stopping him on his way to attain ruin. What would he have done at such a moment?"Dude, there any problems?" Kevin asked him suddenly after actually catching his breath."Nope. You're stepping out?" Allen asked him."Yes. I have a thing but I'll catch you later." Kevin said and without further ado, he stepped out of the room.He was actually conscious of Allen who was watching him closely now probably trying to figure out where he was off to. Kevin decided that he would not be giving him the thought that he was headed for the toilet and turned away until he had gotten to the reception. There were many other toilets he could use as his beeping had increased suddenly that he feared someone might hear. He walked over to the recep
"Oh, not to worry, I did not use the toilet. I just..." Kevin began.This nurse was much older and she had a stern look on her face as her gaze pierced him through her eyeglass. It looked as though she was ready to pop him open. She glared hard and then he reckoned that his face was wet after he had splashed water from the sink on it."Oh, this... I did not use the toilet. I just splashed water across to feel better." He explained.Her frown deepened at this point."Listen boy, can you not read signs or something?" She asked him.Kevin looked up above them at the sign above his head."Well, what does it say?""Staff only." Kevin said to her."So, I bet you did not see anywhere written staff and face splashers only?" She asked him."I am so sorry, I only..." He started off but broke off immediately upon realizing how hard she was glaring at him."Listen, boy. Perhaps you have all the female folks fooled by your pretty face and body build but you don't have me fooled boy. I have got my e
