Soon, everyone began to choose their dance partners.
Kelly was sitting in a corner watching Karen dance with her husband when Donald came towards her. He bend his head a little and stretched out his hand towards her " may I have this dance ?"
she chuckled at the awkward movement of her husband, are they still in the olden era where a man has to bend before asking the lady whether she wants to dance?
" No " she answered shortly and concentrated her attention back on where Karen was dancing.
She doesn't want to dance because the song that was playing wasn't her type, she needs hip hop, she likes to twerk, she likes to rock the music, that's has been her legacy at the clubhouse.
The music was too boring for her, it was as if they were having a grand ball at the royal castle, to which she doesn't belong.
Donald seeing the direction of her eyes, followed her gaze to where Karen was dancing, there and then he realized what her intention was.
" am not going to let you do that" Donald said firmly
Kelly blinked many times before asking with wide eyes " oh, really ?".
" yeah" Donald nodded " and I mean it "
Kelly gave him a sinister smile and stood up " well, let's see about that ".
she went closer to her husband and held his hand, she looked into his eyes " Donald, you worry too much, while don't you worry about yourself and stop worrying about my own fucking business "
Donald looked by sides before putting his lips together and releasing them " look is not that am worrying myself okay, but am doing so to protect you, I brought you into this and I don't want anything to happen to you, this is my fight so let me fight it"
" No Donald " Kelly shakes her head and raised her forefinger to stop him from saying further " is our fight not just your own, when it began ours was when she crossed her boundaries by kidnapping my sick father who was to be operated on the next month, do you realize how much my father means to me? , huh?" she asked angrily and walked away
" Can we at least dance together ?" Donald asked but didn't receive any reply.
Kelly walked to the back of the hall at a quick pace, she needs air, everywhere looks so stuffy, and she doesn't feel among here, this isn't her place, this is where people pretend to be royalty and too sophisticated.
The clothes she was putting on weren't her type of cloth, the cloth looks well covered, and none of her particulars were showing, she needs clothes that have some openings.
As she was walking towards the door, she heard a voice " Waw, what a golden beautiful dress, it is so shiny, how much did you buy it, I want to have one " she looked in the direction she heard the voice and saw a girl who was about her age, looking at her.
She looked at the girl and then at herself to confirm if she was the one the girl was referring to " sorry are you talking to me?" she asked while pointing to herself
" Yeah" the girl nodded " I love your dress" the girl replied with a mesmerized tone
Kelly was confused, indeed the girl was referring to her, she was the only one wearing a golden dress that looks as if she was wearing a sweater, who could love this type of dress ? " sorry do I know you ?"
" you don't need to, I just love your dress and wish to buy it " the girl replied
" then go to the boutique store, it is being sold there," Kelly said nonchalantly and turned to leave but the girl called her back
" Wait, Kelly Anderson, is that you?".
Kelly was totally in a chaotic situation right now, was it because of her marriage with Donald that has made her name so popular that everyone has to call her anytime " sorry, I have asked you this before but do I know you?"
" I am Madison, at college, you used to call me mad"
" oh, madness, Angelica's roommate, is that you?" Kelly asked with wide eyes and raised brows
" Yeah" the girl answered and went closer to her " sorry I chased her away from our room "
Kelly was confused for a second, who was this girl talking about, then she opened her eyes wide in realization " oh, Angelica, but why did you chase her away from your room at college, what is it because she was broke at that time?
The girl breathed out in regret " sorry I chased her away but it wasn't because of money, she was disturbing with her Christian life"
Kelly chuckled at her word " I don't blame you though, she hasn't stopped that life yet, she continues with it"
" She hasn't changed? but why do you guys still live with her? "
" We have no other options, we can't chase her as you did but what are you doing here ?"
" oh " the girl smiled " well, my mother remarried and fortunately for her, the person she got remarried to was a rich man, that's how we got here, we were invited to your party "
Kelly looked at the girl's finger and saw a ring on the finger that signifies when someone was betrothed and it surprised her " you are married ?"
The girl laughed " oh, yeah, to sir Elliott's second son"
" Was it a contract marriage," Kelly asked with curiosity
The girl was shocked at Kelly's question " No, what's that? who could love to be in a contract marriage "
She was disappointed though, that wasn't what she was expecting to hear.
" Is nothing, just asking" Kelly replied dismissively and looked away.
" Why did you want to leave your party ?" the girl asked with concern after a few minutes of awkward silence.
" I don't feel among, you supposed to know my style at college "
The girl laughed at remembering the old days when they were still at college " oh, I remember when you were twerking and some boys were rocking your back, you behave exactly like a slut"
Kelly joined the girl in laughing and waved at her" oh, don't mock me that's my life "
" Oh, I see," the girl said sarcastically and continued laughing
" You said you loved my dress, I can lend it to you "
" And I know the reason you want to lend it out, it doesn't have openings I guess, oh Kelly when will you change ?"
Kelly's laughter vanished at that question and she rolled her eyes, why do people always ask her that question, she hates it when she was being asked that question " don't act like my mother here okay, don't ruin this meeting"
Madison smiled " okay, fine but why did you want to leave your party ?"
Kelly smiled widely at something that clicked in her brain " I was thinking of acting something and I think you could use your help with it " Kelly said and continued smiling, putting the latter into complete confusion.
" And what could that be, " Madison asked with fear because of the type of smile on kelly's face.
