The Punisher

This was starting to get embarrassing for me. He has been gone for approximately 15 minutes now, how long does a trip to the bathroom take? It was ridiculous!. I hate house warming parties, more especially if I don't have Personal relations with anyone here except for the Person I came with.. I looked at the time again, it was now 22:15. Iker is a mess, how does he bring me over to a house party only to leave me hanging? In a house full of soccer players with their gold digging girlfriends, trophy wives and sides. They were too fake for my liking, I wanted to be out of here already! Their presence was suffocating me in the most uncomfortable way.. Voice: Hi I turned and looked at the person in his flashy black suit, holding a glass of what is probably the most expensive whiskey in the house.. Him: Scar Me: Zitha Scar: Nice to meet you He had a scar on his face, definitely how he got the nickname.. Scar: I'm sorry but you look very familiar Me: Yes I am Philani Magasela's Daughter Scar: I knew it! Mr MG They call my father that because of our surname, I don't get it though there's an "a" in between the "M" and "G". Scar: Right now I can safely say you the most important Person in the room I shook my head a little.. Me: Actually my Father is, and he's not here He chuckled.. Scar: Either way A few years ago there was this soccer team that was doing bad, ranked the lowest and the worst. When it was crumbling down my Father bought off the previous owner, then he got a good coach, let go of a few players and bought at least 3 skilled players. One of the players is my boyfriend, Iker. He's originally from Ghana and honestly the best in the team. He plays center forward and last year he won an award for the most goals scored. Most people, especially the fans of the opposing teams have accused him of using a portion of some sort, but the honest truth is that soccer is Iker's life. It's in his DNA, and he worked damn hard to be where he is today. We have been dating for 3 years now, when we started the relationship he had just got off a very stressful relationship. I only started having an interest in soccer after knowing about him and how well admired he was. I went to a few games, sat on the VIP box section, did personal meet and greetings with the players after the game and that's how he took an interest in me.. We didn't date straight away, it took a bit of time. He's younger than me, he's 27 and I'm 29 but we compliment each other so well. You would never tell.. Scar: I am Iker's friend but in another team now Me: I thought soccer players who weren't in the same team hated each other He laughed, revealing his perfectly aligned white teeth.. Scar: Not all the time I nodded... I looked at the time.. Scar: Am I keeping you from something? Me: No.. Not at all I just.. I'm wai- I saw Iker walking down the stairs.. Me: I was waiting for Iker Iker: Scar!!! He literally shouted all the way from the staircase.. Scar: Eyy poi Iker made his way to us and greeted Scar with shoulder bump almost knocking his glass..Iker hit him hard on his shoulder. Iker: I'm glad you here Brother Scar: Yeah me too He then sniffed and wiped his nose, I looked down.. Iker put his arm over Scar's shoulders.. Iker: I come very far with this Brother of mine This was humiliating, he was sniffing cocaine. He is back on cocaine after he saw how it almost destroyed his career. Not everyone who is here is sincere, what if there's a reporter? Tomorrow he'll be making headlines.. Scar: I think you should call it a night Iker: What for? The night is still young! Scar remained quiet.. Me: I need to get home, I'm tired Scar: The Madam has spoken Iker: Can't argue with that, her father owns me He started laughing, but Scar didn't laugh. I put the glass of champagne on the counter. Me: I think I'll call an Uber Iker: bebê (baby) come on it was a joke! I made my way to the door.. Iker: Zee?? It was just a joke He followed me until I made it outside, he grabbed my arm. I turned around and slapped across the face.. Me: May this be the last time you embarrass me in front of your friend! He put his hand on his cheek and chuckled. Me: It's the last time! I swear! He raised both his hands and looked down shaking his head, his head came back up with him biting his lower lip.. Me: Should I Uber home or you will take me home? Iker: Next time you lose your s**t never put your hand on me do you understand? Your father might own me but I'm the only Person in the team he can't fire! So think about that Princess! He walked away.. Iker: I believe you know where we parked the car!
