Chapter 2
While Mika was in her room thinking, she had been thinking about Paxton the whole week. So she didn't really have time for her friends. But she heard a knock on the door.
"Who's there?" she asked as she adjusts herself.
"It's Aviva."
Mika buried her head into the mirror. "You didn't even tell me."
"I called you 15 times. I sent you messages."
Mika: "Ohh shit."
Mika took her phone and found that it was true.
Aviva: "Are you going to let us in or you'll make us stand?"
Mika: "Sure, come in."
Shayla went to dive into the bed immediately. "What's with you girl? You are not even prepared for Paxton's party."
"Paxton? Wait, who's Paxton?"
Lucy: "Wait, you don't know Paxton. Paxton is...."
Aviva shuns her. "Let me take it from there. Paxton joined our school like this year and now we are already in July. He got transferred from the highschool across New York. He's the talk of our school. He's cute, friendly, he plays football and I mean, he is so good at it. I've told you Amika Velaquex, no matter how intelligent you can be, always live life and observe girl."
Amika: "So he's been in our school the whole year and i didn't even notice?"
Aviva: "Yeah baby."
Amika was still deep in thoughts when Shayla snapped her out of her thoughts. "Girl, this dress is hot."
Amika rushes to take the dress. "This dress means a lot. It was a birthday gift from dad and he barely comes home."
Aviva: "You can wear it to Paxton's party."
Mika: "I don't want to go."
Aviva: "For real? Don't tell me you mean it."
Mika: "Yes I do, Aviva. This guy was mean to me the first time we talked and he didn't even give me audience to talk to him."
Aviva: "So, you've met? Mika, must you always want to be like me when you know it's never going to happen?"
Mika flared up. "I'm not going to take that from you, Gigi."
Aviva looked susprised. "Now you call me by my native name?"
Mika didn't respond. She just walked into the closet. "Aviva, you are always getting under my skin and it sucks."
Shayla tried to move close to Aviva but Aviva told her to let go of her. Aviva walked up to the closet. "I will act like this issue never came up. So what you'll do for me is get a dress and let's go for a party."
Mika: "I've stated my decision. I'm not going and that's final."
Shayla and Lucy stared at themselves and decided to step out for a while.
She dragged Mika out of the closet and threw her to the bed.
Aviva: "You know what? There's something I've not told you and I feel this is the right moment to share it with you. You know when I moved here with Pragya and my mom, everything seemed tough. And that was when I met you and you told me to come to your school. I was like who's this? And come what may, you've been a good friend to me. You've been the only friend that I had who has been so brilliant and still beautiful. I was jealous at times. So each time I act this way, it's because I love you."
Aviva and Amika hugged each other for a while as Aviva jerked her off. "Now, stop being emotional and go get dressed."
Amika nodded her head and walked into the bath tub.
****
At Paxton's party.
The four ladies looked gorgeous and they like drew attention from different students. Aviva in her confident nature left the rest of them to get a drink.
James walked up to Shayla holding two cups of drinks. "Hey Shayla."
Shayla smiled and collected a cup. James complimented her outfit and she blushed. James offered to dance with her and she agreed, walking away from Lucy and Mika.
Mika and Lucy stared at each other.
Lucy: "What do you want to do now?"
Mika looked at Lucy in a susprised manner. "Y'all invited me to the party, i barely converse with this people and then yoy ask me what i want to do."
Lucy: "Mika calm down. I can't actually hold on to you like, i need to catch fun at this party."
Mika: "Oh really." She sounded harsh. "You can go out and hook up with anybody you want, i don't care."
Lucy: "You've gone mad." She walked out angrily.
Mika was left alone. She walked round to look for Aviva. She then found Aviva in the midst of lots of people yapping about relationship and how to hook up with a guy. Everyone seemed concentrated on her and Mika had no choice than to go find a spot.
She wanted to get a drink and that was when she saw Paxton. "Oh shitt."
Paxton smiled at her and offered her a drink. Mika ignored him and collected the drink from a guy who was also at the table. She tried to walk fast but Paxton followed her. "At least hear me out."
Mika got angry and then dived into a couch. "Paxton or whatever your name is called, let me be."
Paxton: "What did i do to you?"
Mika: "Oh really." She said looking susprised. "You know what? I am Mika. No one talks to me in the manner of which you did. You can go around hooking up with all of my friends but I'm not some cheap baggage. You can't just talk to me like thrash and come running to me like everything was fine. I don't want your company." She said as she gulps her drink.
Paxton stood there sipping his drink. "I understand that you must be drunk and it's natural. I'll come back when you are okay."
Mika was so furious. She stood up looking so angry. She wanted to confront Paxton and then he held her so close to himself.
Paxton: "You need to take things easy with yourself." He looked into her eyes and then pushed her to the couch. He walked away and then Mika watched his back.
For a minute, she felt like she was truly drunk. She didn't know when she passed out.
