Chapter 16
With anger rushing in her veins, she sauntered to the car that just bashed her car, but before she could get there, a guy dressed in a black trouser and a red button down Polo fitted his body perfectly, with the two up buttons opened, revealing his hairless masculine chest, his thick black soft hair curled on his forehead, covering one of his brown eyes, his pink lips was wet from whatever he did with it. She stopped to recall where she had met the guy before, but it seems that luck wasn’t on her side, as she found her brain dumb and couldn’t recollect his face, but anyway, not that she gave a damn about where he came from, she was sure going teach him a lesson for messing with her.
“What was that nonsense all about, huh?” Karen snapped as soon as he got to him, venting all hid anger on him. She wasn’t in a good mood, and to think that the guy got her more pissed, keeps getting to her, as she felt like transferring her aggression over to him.
“Miss I’m…”
“Don’t you even dare say sorry, you can say that to who wants to listen, as for me, I’m not in for that nonsense. Are you blind or is it that my car was so small that you didn’t noticed it? Now look what you’ve done to my precious car you jerk!” She yelled, while pointing to her car, whose bonnet was scratched.
Meanwhile, the guy stood watching her rants, as he couldn’t help wondering which planet she came from. She had been talking nonstop and didn’t even give him a space to talk, is she a parrot?
“Miss I’m trying to apologize for what I did, can you let me speak up, please?” The guy spoke politely in his calmest voice, but she just scoffed angrily.
“When I was talking just now, is like you didn’t get the part where I said that I don’t need your apology, and hence, you should save it for whoever needs it. Don’t get me pissed young man, I don’t know and I don’t care how you’re going to do it, but I want my car fixed this minute.” She said with finality in her voice, while the guy just stood watching her unbelievably.
“Alright I’ll fix the car, but…”
“There’s no but, you’ll take the car to wherever you can fix it, and don’t keep me waiting.” She flared up, and the guy pursed his lips in frustration.
“One minute, please.” He said then went back to his car and brought out a car scratch remover, before walking over to her car and started fixing it, while cursing under his breath. He was hurrying to go see someone, and here he was, stuck with this crazy lady, wondering which planet she came from.
“It’s done.” He said after a few minutes, and she went to examine the car properly, before turning to glare daggers at him.
“Anyways, my name is Kingsley, but my friends calls me Kings. It’s nice meeting you.” He said with a smile on his face, as he held out his hand to her for an handshake, while she just scoffed unbelievably.
“Which planet did you come from? Is this how you go around bashing people’s cars, all in the name of introducing yourself to them? The last time I checked, I didn’t ask for your name, so I don’t care what your name is. I don’t want to ever see your ugly face again, and don’t ever show your face to me. Get lost.” She said with an eye roll, then catwalked to her car and hopped in, before zooming off angrily.
Meanwhile, Kingsley stood watching her in awe, as her car zoomed off. He tried recalling if they’ve met before that made her acted like that towards her, but it seems that it was their first time of meeting each other, and it was funny, how she acted to him. He shook his head unbelievably, before going to hop in on his car, and zoomed off…
Karen POV
After spending the whole day sleeping at home, I finally woke up around 7pm and had a quick bath before getting ready to go hang out with Mavis. After applying the needful to my skin, I walked over to the closet and selected a pair of black jean trousers and a white Polo shirt, with a pair of white sneakers to match my dress, and after I was done, I wore my fez cap over my hair which was already packed in a ponytail, before I finally left my room, not after picking my phone from the bed.
I met dad in the living room, reading a newspaper.
“Hey dad,” I greeted while smiling, and he raised his gaze to look at me.Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.
“Hey princess, where are you going by this time of the night?” He asked inquisitively.
“I’m going to hang out with Mavis for some time, I’ll be back before you know it,” I replied.
“But…”
“No but dad, I’m off,” I cut her off, and with that I exit the building, and drove straight to the usual spot where I and Mavis do go to hang out. After driving for what seemed like forever, I finally got to the restaurant and parked in front of it, before getting off and walked over to the entrance door, which opened on its own as soon as I got close.
Stepping into the restaurant, I found Mavis sitting at the other end of the restaurant, devouring a plate of pasta. Wow! She’s here before me as usual, and she didn’t forgot to order for food like she always does. Some times I do wonder why she never adds to weight, upon all the food she eats, Mavis is one hell of a foodie.
“You’re here before me as usual,” I scoffed and sat down across her.
“Finally you’re here Karen. You need to order a plate of this, it’s delicious. It’s the best food I’ve ever tasted here, seems like they changed their chef, or added some special recipe. I’m sure going to order another one after this,” She said, not sparing me a glance, as she kept eating like she’s been starving for days.
“Do you even care about your self esteem, Mavis?” I asked with a smirk on my face, as I leaned in on her, and that was when she raised her gaze to look at me, with some stew stains on her lips. Gosh! So disgusting, can’t believe she is this careless.
“I sold that to get a job at Ryan’s company, so I have no one, let alone caring about it.” She smirked and started eating again, while I shook my head unbelievably.
“Waiter!” I snapped my finger, and a waiter came rushing toward us.
“Hello ma’am, you’re welcome to our restaurant, please do place your orders,” He said, while I waited patiently for him to get done with talking his craps, before I order for something.
“Chicken stew and breast, with a glass of virgin cocktail, and get me some ice too,” I ordered, and he nodded before going to get it. The sudden urge to visit the toilet rushed through me, and I stood up.
“I need to use the restroom,” I said to Mavis, before walking away. I’ve been here many times, so I know my ways around here. I made my way straight to the restroom, and after I was done I came back to join Mavis, but stopped on my track, as I was welcomed by the shock of my life…
