Tariah have set the table, how did I not see her doing that.
We kept small conversation going while eating.It was not that much but at least it did not allow awkwardness between the two of us.
Tariah and Scarlett kept stealing glances at each other .
(women and their ego)
"You might as well get it over with.
I mean just look at the both of you, stealing glances as if you were never friends.
If eyes could kill I swear one of you might have already been six feet under"
"Mind your business!just because you guys are cool, does not mean I should forget everything she said" Scarlett
"Neither do I want to fix things with her,I will not apologise " Tariah said banging her left hand on the table .
"Tariah ,Scarlett, can you stop acting childish ,you both should find a way to fix things. Don't put me in a position of where I have to choose between the two of you" I said.
"Then choose between your sister and a total stranger, because I'm not willing to fix something when I was not the one that broke it first" said Scarlet.
"And when did she become so important to you that you are comparing us both as equal?" scarlet let out
"I thought I was your first priority but guess, I was not enough" Scarlett
"Tariah please apologise" I begged her
"For what exactly?"She asked folding her arms on her chest and raising her eyebrows.
(stubborn much)
" For whatever she's mad at!"I said
"Anyway I know you are not gonna choose me , so I might as well save myself from the embarrassment.So Eddy I'm leaving" Tariah said
(she's still calling me Eddy , my mind is jumping in happiness right now)
(not now Eddy)
(fine , stupid mind)
"It's good to see she has some brain left in her ,I thought poverty took that from her" Scarlett said rudely.
"Middle class people actually have some humanity left in them " Scarlett continue mocking her .
"Scarlett,that's enough, how dare you say those hurtful things to her, she just woke up from a hospital bed and you are already on her neck." I said getting fed up.
"So they are only hurtful when I say them and not when you do," Scarlet.
"Besides it's not the first time she was in a hospital bed and everytime she's in, you seem to be the cause of that always, isn't it brother." She said quoting in the air with her two fingers
"I.... I , you... u mean.... it's just that . you know umh ." Does that mean you are bout that..i ."Why the fuck am I stattering!
"You what? Scarlett asked cutting me off.
"Cat got you tongue"
"let's go Tariah ,he's not worth it" she said grabbing Tariah's hand.
"Sure, " then they both started laughing as if nothing happened.
"The fuck "
"What just transpired"
"Someone please tinge me , cause I think I'm daydreaming again"
....
I quickly jotted upstairs, straight in Scarlet's room,I found them still laughing as if it was something hilarious.
I still needed to confirm that I'm not actually dreaming.
"Or am I ?"
"W...why...why are the both of you laughing?" I asked a bit breathless.
"Because it's funny,you should have seen your face" Tariah said spitting out another laughter.
"ha ha , you got jokes "I said being sardonic (sarcastic).
"Are you sleeping here or the guest room" I asked looking at Tariah and changing the subject."
She looked at Scarlett as if asking for permission.
Scarlet nodded at her , then looked at me.
"Guestroom it is " Tariah said while getting up then wave goodbye in Scarlett direction.
Scarlett returned the gesture with a smile plasterd on her face.
(drop dead gorgeous)
(shut up )my subconscious
"Does that mean you are both on the same page?" I asked looking at them both.
"yeah duh!"
"Good night Eddie "said Tariah gazing at me with those eyes that keep me up all night .
"What? do I have something on my face? "
"You 're beautiful, you are a fine art that..."
"Do you sleep -talk Eddie " she cut me off again, now she probably thinks I'm drunk or something .
(I think I want to take back what I just uttered few seconds ago.)
"No, I don't , do I look like I do ? just go sleep" You are getting on my nerves,don't worry guys I did not say that loud ,I don't want to have my heart shatter in pieces because of one hot individual.
"In other words you mean I'm annoying "
( she heard me, crap, crap in the middle of the ocean.)
"You heard that?"I asked
"No I heard your inner voice talking , and for the love of God stop swearing," she can actually hear my thoughts, what the hell?
"No , stupid! you are saying it loud " ooh that's a relief because if she was to hear my thoughts it will be terrible because sometimes when I'm around her, my mind is only clouded with dirty thoughts about her.
I'm a pervert I know.
"Good night for the last time , or I will slam this door on your face"
"You don't have to tell me twice, Goodnight Tariah" I went to my room with a smile plastered on my face ,for God knows why.
(idiot)
...The next morning...
It was a good spirited day, I was feeling a bit happy and a bit tense, I don't really know why .
I was descending from upstairs when i heard commotion coming from downstairs.
(it's not commotion guys ,I'm just being dramatic)
You know that song by Cardi B Wap, it's the one that is playing and men it is loud .
"sheesh!"
"what the hell ,? Why are you guys....can you you please . Scarlet was twerking and man it was gross and funny .
(There's no nyash and you know what I'm talking about)
I bet she did not hear me coz she was still forcing that nyashless body . But who am I to judge ,but it's really funny.She's not that nyashless it's more like "Not for boys for gentlemen nyash"you know what I mean.
(now it's creepy and crazy talking about my sister's nyash!)
( En don't you dare plant any stupid thoughts in your minds , we all know what you guys are thinking)
(gross ,gross to whatever you are thinking)
Tariah took turn with Scarlet coz they were dancing in circles
Now this is an African black women twerking.
And I'm telling you guys this twerking was no longer funny ,it electrified that hidden feeling in me .
That urge to run my fingers all over that black nyash and pull it closer was growing strong and stronger by every second .
And she's not helping the matter ,cause she wearing those shorts ,damn those thigh .
I think my big man saw that too .
(don't you dare embarrass me big man)
Damn I didn't even know the urge to touch her could drag me close to her ,coz the thing that brought me back to my senses was a sharp pain across my chicks.
How did I get here.
(man I'm in dip shit )
"What the fuck is wrong with you?a mere dance got you so uptight, don't you have any manners "?
"Did I tell you that I want to dance with you?"
"Just because you own this mension ,does not mean you own the people in it ?
(her lips ,her eyes damn ,she's cute when she's angry)
"Bitch why are you overreacting ,it's not like you were raped or something "Scarlet said
"Well maybe he wanted to, like brother like sister, just like what you did to that 18 year old"Tariah fired
"what is she talking about Scarlett"I asked not believing my ears.
