CHAPTER 3
Vanessa POV
I shifted uncomfortably on the chair because I could still feel his gaze boring into my back. This club was becoming suspicious the more I looked around it. There were different sections with different people, some were talking business from the look of it while some were doing some kind of exchange, it was just so creepy.
‘Where is Matt?’ I questioned myself.
I felt someone`s breath fan my nerve making my hairs stand alert and the first person that I thought of was the creepy sexy guy that I had seen from earlier who. To my disappointment it was Matt. Why was I disappointed? I asked myself.
“Baby, would you love to dance?” he asked as he wrapped his arms around my waist.
“Um…I am not feeling quite comfortable” I said expressing my discomfort with the club. And the more I come to think of it I can’t see his friends nor his employees in the club, I was even becoming suspicious of my own boyfriend.
I laughed at the thought I was beginning to have but he was not helping matters to ease away my suspicions. Where was he when he left me saying that he wanted to go and meet his employees? Where are his employees?
“You can’t just sit here doing nothing” he said pulling me closer and that was when I perceived it. It was not his perfume or his normal cologne scent, it was another scent mixed with his. Is Matt cheating on me?
“Why don’t we just go somewhere else? I am feeling uneasy here” brushing away any negative thought that made me suspicious of my boyfriend, he was too loyal to cheat on me.
I could see the disappointment that flashed through his eyes but he was fast to hide it.
“okay then. Let me tell my employees that I will be leaving” he said after a moment of silence. I gave him a light peck on his lips as he slowly released me from his arms and headed towards the other direction.
I used my eyes to follow him because I was curious to know where exactly he was heading to, the crowd was not helping matters because they all seemed to be dancing away and obstructing my view. I lost him because of the crowd.
I stood up from my seat, looking around the club I saw my friend making out with a guy. They should at least get a room.
“Edna…Edna” I called out to her when I reached a safe distance where she could hear me.
“mm” she said. She got up immediately when she saw that I was the one calling her and scrambled away from the man’s lap making her way to me. Her lipstick was already smudged, her dress rumpled like someone who just finished sexing. But from the look of things she does not seem like someone who has done that stage. Edna is a real wild cat.
I looked at her with disgust clearly written on my face and all she could was smile at me.
“I am a lady after all. I got needs”
“That not my business. I am going to look for Matt, and we might be leaving very soon. So maybe you can head home yourself when you are done satisfying your needs” I said as I glanced over to the man who was looking at me with lust.
“okay babe”. She pulled me into a tight hug, leaning further on me.
“remember to do something. You are not getting younger anymore” she whispered into my ear.
I couldn’t prevent the blush which made its way to my cheeks. I hit her lightly on her shoulders as I released myself from her. She chuckled at my little act and I was sure that she saw the little blush on my cheeks but she just decided not to pay attention to me.
“Be careful” I said leaving her to go search for my boyfriend.
Following the same route which I had seen him take, I arrived in front of two doors. Not knowing which one to enter I was already debating on turning back. I stood there for some minutes contemplating on which door to take, not until a lady tapped me on my shoulder drawing my attention.
“Excuse me”
“Oh my world…I forgot that I was standing in front of a door. I am so sorry” I apologized to her frantically when I had just realized myself.
“ha-ha…. it’s no problem. It seems like you are new here”
“Um…yes I…I am” I stuttered.
Admitting to the fact that I was a newbie to a stranger was kind of weird, but what harm will it do me?
She looked at me like I have grown two heads and suddenly busted into laughter. I thought that I had seen it all today but definitely not. Why was she laughing?
“Sorry, pardon my manners”
I nodded my head accepting her apology. This lady was unseeingly nice and weird.
“Um…I don’t mind a threesome and I don’t think my boyfriend will mind also”
I stared at her with my jaw hanging. She definitely is weird. I couldn’t even believe what I was hearing and before I was able to comprehend what she said and give her a reply she already did the worst.
“Come, let’s go” she said dragging my hands and led me into one of the doors. She led me further until we stopped in front of a room.
“you don’t have to be shy”
Flashing me a smile and she pulled me into the room. I immediately hid at her back not wanting to embarrass myself in front of a person that I have never seen before. How will I even tell them that I am new to all this?
That I am a f*****g virgin!!
“Baby, you are back. What took you so long?” the man that I think should be her boyfriend said. Why does his voice sound like Matt’s own? I must be overthinking.
“Sorry. I met a new friend and I brought her along. Hope you don’t mind?”
“Of course not”
The similarity was becoming too true to deny. I had this feeling that it was Matt and I was beginning to get uncomfortable. The curiosity was biting me.
“Why is she h….”
His words got stuck in his throat, his eyes almost out of his socket as if he had seen a ghost. I was the ghost.
There he was. My boyfriend was in a room with another woman when he left me out there in that creepy club for other men to use their eyes and feast on me. I stood there looking at him not even know how to react.
“Baby, what happened?”
Looking at him dead in the eyes, I wanted to hear what he had to say. I wanted to hear his explanation or rather maybe an excuse, but who would have thought that I was going to hear something else.
“Nothing babe. It’s nothing to worry about. I was just asking why she was hiding” he said looking between me and the woman.
“oh, I think she’s shy”
I just stood there looking at him but he did not even spare me a glance. He wouldn’t even dare to look me in the eyes. I just turned to the lady who was still looking at me with smiles on her face. I bet she has no idea who she is dating.
“I am not interested. Why don’t you just enjoy yourself” I said to her trying to hard too seek for composure. ‘Thank you’ I muttered as I left the room. I could hear the giggles and laughter coming from the room where I left. The tears that I didn’t know I had in my eyes rolled down my face.
‘How long has he been cheating on me or maybe her?’ I asked myself. I could also be a side chick or the main girlfriend to him but only him knew which one I was
I walked out of the door contemplating on whether I should go home or stay back. Going back home was not going to help matters so I just decided to stay back and maybe drink myself to stupor, flirt with any random guy and just do anything.
