MY FAVOURITE PETAL

PART IV- DERWIN'S PLIGHT

After our last encounter, I was short of words...I didn't know whether i did something wrong or not, but it had a great effect on me 😭😭😭. The girl for whom I'd melt every single time left me hanging. Couldn't sleep for two days, neither did I plan on telling my mom what was going on. You know for some reason, whenever moms try to cut in and help, matters just get worse and your whole gameplay is done for. That weekend i locked myself up in my room upstairs with some chips and two bottles of Coca cola. Yhh...you can imagine how miserable I was. I didn't even touch my homework. Then my eyes spotted something. Inside my bag was the piece of paper Anita had handed me. Hey, maybe this was a sign of something good. So yes I called the first number, which was Anita's. "Hii, it's me Derwin, from school, I'm free this weekend and if you're down for it, maybe we could meet up somewhere, you know to...to hang out." This must have been the greatest moment of her life. I finally started paying attention to her. 😂 I put on a blue jacket with suited me perfectly and met up with Anita at a club about 400 kilometres from my place. It seemed like a cool place... CLUB O². Besides I needed to free my mind from all the pain I was going through. Anita held my hand firmly as we walked in. Now hear this,.....as soon as we got in, she introduced me to the people she knew over there as her boyfriend. Damnnn girl... she could've at least given me a heads up or something, but hey she just dropped the bomb on everyone like that. After a couple of rounds of assorted drinks I quickly pulled her to a corner in the club for questioning....."You know, you could've told me you were gonna do something like this, and besides you only just met me, come onnn..." Strangely her response was..."Ow please sweetheart, no need to be this way. Everyone's heard about what Fernanda did to you, and I know deep down you're hurt. That's why I'm here . To give you pleasure and make you happy" . She then hugged me very tightly. Yhh well, I couldn't resist the urge to embrace her even more. She knew I was really hurt. I asked her if she'd like to go for another round with me and maybe we could hit the dance floor. She readily took my hand and we went for another round of drinks. Trust me, that night was something I would never forget. For the first time in my life I saw certain things 👀.... Anita, whiles rubbing her hands all over me chest said these kinda stuff are normal for teenagers and I would eventually blend in. To be honest Anita made me have a lot of fun, she appreciated my presence and made me known to all the people in the club. Wow.... funny how those you try pushing away end up becoming so close to you whiles those from whom you seek attention just refuse to notice you
