Meant to Be

Upset

“So, tell me? are you looking for me?” He asked me but I was so lost in thoughts all I could think of how I could just get out of here and run for my life.

“What makes you think I am looking for you?” I said to him turning to look at him with a smirk but looking in his eyes I was so taken away by him.

“I know you are. I am all there is to look forward to at this boring party” He said to me and I chuckled looking at him, he really knew himself very well I must say.

“Yeah Right! Please excuse I have to leave you alone” I said walking away from him, I stood at a distance taking deep breaths, I couldn’t believe it that I was so nervous being around him.

I looked around until I found tom and terry, “Hi...” I greeted them with a smile on my face, “Myra, how are you?” Tom responded but terry kept quiet, 

“Hi Terry, how are you?” I said to him and he coldly responded

 “Fine thanks” He said to me and I swallowed hard nodding my head, he grabbed his glass of whiskey and walked away

“Have you seen Tasha?” I asked tom who looked around briefly before shaking his head, “I know she was chatting with her father earlier but I don’t know about now” Tom replied and I nodded my head

“You know you don’t have to try so hard to get his attention?” Tom said to me and I looked at him wondering what how he knew that I liked Terry

“Didn’t Tasha tell you that?” I asked sipping from my glass of wine,

“Nope!” He replied reluctantly shaking his head “Okay, then how did you know that?” I asked turning to him so that I know how he knew that I like terry

“Well I have seen you how you look at him, Myra forget about Terry he has someone in his life,” He said to me and I swallowed hard looking at him with a smile on my face

“They are not married, are they?” I asked Tom and he chuckled “They are planning to. Just forget about him and focus on other things…… Like finding a hobby or a permanent man unlike playing this playgirl thing. I mean you are too old for this s**t crying over a man” He said to me and I felt so angry that he would talk to me like that

“You don’t know s**t about me! SO, don’t act like you know who I am” I snapped at him before walking away, I needed to find myself more alcohol. Why did everyone act as if they knew me very well? I mean look at the man whom I met earlier he was trying to act as if he knew me. I found the bar and made my way to the counter, “Please give me something strong” I said to the bartender placing my wine glass on the counter sitting down

“Whiskey?” He said to me as I nodded my head pushing my hair behind, “On the rock” I said to him, the man poured a glass for me and I wanted to take it when someone quickly grabbed it. I looked up only to find it was Calvin

“What the f**k?” I cussed looking at him gulping it down, “Wow!” He said with a smile on his face, I rolled my eyes looking ahead as I looked at the bartender nodding my head so he can pour another for me. Calvin quickly grabbed it again and I was irritated now, “What’s wrong with you?  If you want to drink why can’t you just order yours”, I snapped at him and he chuckled looking at me

“I would order but I really wouldn’t love to see you get drunk, I mean who will look out for me” He said sitting next to me

“Are you crazy? Why would I look out for you? I don’t even know you” I said to him and he still had that smirk on his face, God I wish I could wipe it off his face but I was so taken by it so much, I was mesmerized by his hazel eyes, his perfect pink lips which were curled up in a smirk. I shook my heads bringing myself back to reality “I will leave you to enjoy yourself then” I said to him standing up to leave but he dragged me by my arm making me stop as he looked into my eyes

“If you are so upset then why don’t you yell at me? It’s fine for you to ruin my potential girlfriend but I can’t drink your whiskey?” He said still with a smirk on his face

“Oh! I didn’t know you wanted to make it official please forgive me for that, I can hook you up with her, now let go of me” I said removing my head from her when I staggered falling to the ground as the wine spilt on my dress, I looked around and people were staring at me some whispering something to each other. I scoffed as I tried to stand up and Calvin offered to help me, “f**k!” I cussed grabbing his hand as I stood up, he chuckled softly looking at me

“Why don’t we get you changed into something else?” He said to me as he got his phone dialling it. “Please arrange a dress for someone, size 6 and heels about size 38,” He said as he looked at me, I swallowed hard looking down, I saw the way terry looked at me and I was more embarrassed.

“Okay let’s go!” He said grabbing my hand as he dragged me out of the place, “Let go of me” I yelled wanting to remove my hand but he held on tight.  

“You can try to make me let go of you but let’s be honest, you can’t go back in there smelling like that,” He said raising his eyebrows and I stopped looking into his eyes sighing heavily. “Am only doing this because I still want to drink that’s all?” I said to him and he chuckled looking at me

“I honestly don’t mind what you do,” He said to me wanting to start to walk away when someone shouted at him/. “Calvin Tanner?” The woman shouted and I wanted to move away but he stopped me holding my hand nicely, I looked up at him and couldn’t believe it.

Calvin Tanner? I thought where didn’t I hear that name, I asked myself looking at him if I could recognise him. “Oh my God!” I let it slip out of my mouth as I looked at him, he was an heir to one of the most hotels in the world. He looked at me smiling widely before he turned to the other woman
