" you're twenty eight Alexandra, You need a man " the voice of her mother rang in her head. She could still picture herself not caring one bit .
" c'om Ma Martha , everyone knows that Alexa here is a lesbian " one of her cousin maryjane said . Alexandra imagined the scenario when the girl rolled her eyes at her but as always she ignored her.
" is this true Alexandra ? " her mother asked
" don't tell me you believe that ? " Alexandra let out with a straight face .
" oh please! Alexandra, everyone knows how you are always clubbing going out with different girls and deny the fact i haven't see you making out with a girl at a nightclub before ? " another of her cousin Amber said, Alexandra wanted to laugh , she wanted to let the laughter out but no , she can't laugh, she can't do that in front of them.
" what do you have to say for yourself young lady ? " her mother asked.
" am no lesbian and even if i am whose business is it ? " Alexandra answered .
" ours , ours because it will affect the family business " her mother half yelled .
" do you what that will cost us if words gets out that my daughter is a lesbian ? " Alexandra lowered her head not because she was scared of her mother but because she didn't want to start up an argument that won't end well.
" listen up Alexandra , my birthday is coming up , better get a man by then or am giving the company to Devan " with that said her mother walked out , slamming the door really hard to express her anger . Alexandra didn't show that it bothered her , she gently stood up and made to leave .
" oh my! wait let elder brother Devan hears about this " Amber said clapping her hands excitedly like a kid who has been told that Santa clause will delivery her gift himself .
" You know Ma Martha's birthday is in three weeks time right ? " Maryjane asked , she was trying to her on Alexandra's nerves but Alexandra was way pass that level thus she walked out slamming the door really hard as well .
Back at the club she drank the last remaining of her wine , without a care in the world she uncapped another , this time around she drank directly from the bottle , dropping the bottle back on the table she caught sight of three men walking into the club , from where she was sitting it was easier for her to see who goes in and out of the club but they can't see her it's a very secured part of the club . She watched the men walk over to the bartender , they shook hands with him , *must have known the bartender * , he mixed drinks for them , happily the other two joined the dancing but one lean on the counter chatting with the bartender , he mixed another drink for the man before he pushed him off , smiling to himself the man walked out of the counter , she narrowed her gaze when she noticed him coming over to where she was sitting holding a glass of god knows what he ordered .
" Wow ! never expected to see anyone here " the man exclaimed , Alexandra choose to ignored him , he will go away eventually . Still standing he stretch forth his hands hopping for a handshake yet no response from the lady sitting down .
" am Steve you are ? " still no response from the lady
" okay , i guess you might be deaf and maybe dumb " he said , he proceeded to making gestures with his hands and body but the girl didn't even look up at him , she kept on drowning herself in that bottle of wine .
" you might get drank " he commented as he sat down in another seat opposite her , well she can sit on the seat today he doesn't mind. The entire thing felt like he was talking to himself thus he decided to keep to himself . The two just stayed like that for what felt like forever before she decided it was time to leave , she stood up but then she staggered and almost fell had a strong muscular arms not caught .
" get your hands off me " she warned as she slapped his hands off her waist ,
" Wow you talk ! " the man exclaimed, although he was unhappy that the girl ignored him yet he choose to push that aside now and help the girl , he tried to reach out to her again , the kind of deadly stare the girl gave him made him withdrew himself instantly .
" if you value those things you call hands keep them to yourself " the warning was clear , the man scoffed at how rude the lady was , he watched her stagger her way towards the door , the girl won't be able to reach home like this , she's drunk , should he help her , nahh !! it's none of his business , the girl is rude , but if it's because of how drunk she is , for what it's worth he decided to help her , she will appreciate him kind gesture when she's back to normal , with that in mind he carefully followed her .
Outside the club, Alexandra was having a hard time balancing her steps , she kept on tripping but thanks to her stamina she will always hold herself ,not long she passed a boy and and girl who were seriously making out next to a red Lexus , she didn't even bother to give them a second look , she simply walk pass them . Getting close to her white Porsche , she reached for her Jean pocket searching for the keys , finally found it at the back left pocket she brought it out but being too drunk the key fell off , she reached down to pick it up but someone picked it up instead causing her to hiss .
" hand the damn keys " she let out in her drunken state .
" let me take you home , where do you live " the girl asked .
" f*ck off " she hissed at the girl but the girl was having none of it rather she opened the car by pressing a button on the key .
" yeyyy!! i have always wanted to ride a Porsche " The girl said she wanted to hop on the driver's seat when Alexandra's voice called out to her .
" no one drives my car "
" am Special "
" what ? "
" that's my name , Special Gentle " the girl said flashing her cute smile .
" you're still not getting in my car "
" look am just trying to help you , not like i bit or anything " .
" Special !!!" someone yelled her name , both girls turn to see a man standing close to a red Lexus looking aggressive .
" you f*cking b¡tch !!"
" go f-k yourself " she said , angrily the man started to approach them .
" if you wanna make it a run for it now is you chance " Special let out , looking at the aggressive man approaching them Alexandra decided to take her chances with the girl , she hopped into the car as the girl took off , raising dust along the way .
" f–k you stupid a$$ b¡tch " the man yelled but the girls were way out of reach .
Steve who has been watching the entire scene from behind couldn't help it but smile at himself , that Special of a girl really stole something from his friend the girl must be smart.
