It was 9 am the girls found themselves lying separately Khloe lying on the rugged situated in the middle of Mercedes's room, Mercedes slept with her face on the floor while her entire body was on the bed for Kamari slept on the couch beside the wardrobe, the sound of the door woke them, of course, their eyes were still heavy and sleepy Kamari tried to figure out where she was, the last thing she remembered was texting her grandma she wasn't coming home she had to sort out the philosophy course with her friends.
Mercedes's mom claps her hand together to make sure they are fully awoke, Mercedes rolled from the corner she was in and fell flat on her back which makes khloe chuckle however her mom was frowning.
"I will not condone this kind of behavior anymore Mercedes, "-
She walk over to her helping her to stand on her feet in other for her to be fully awake to hear everything she was going to say Khloe and Kamari were fully awake Mercedes took enough of the liquid they tried to warn her but ended up drinking it too.
"no more parties till your graduation and you're grounded," her mom said strictly Khloe looked like she was the most affected because no way she was going to any party without her best friend Mercedes. Mercedes seems very sloppy they were sure she haven't heard her mom correctly.
"Mercedes!!!" Her mom yelled she was now fully recovered from her sleep she looked around still in her clothes she wore to the party she sniff herself her stomach growled like there is a beast in her stomach she burps the gas out reliving, she now is very hungry like a vampire who was staked into slumber for a decade.
"Last night y'all make a mess of my kitchen I will appreciate it if both of you find your way home, and your Mercedes this is not over" she shut the door loudly. Kamari had to hurry into the shower she can't go home like this.
"Did somebody die last night?" Khloe asked sitting on the bed as they waited for Kamari to finish up.
"The last thing I remember was we were all singing bigwiz on the top of our voice," Mercedes said pulling her clothes off and dumping them in the basket. Bigwiz is a popular Nigeria afrobeat singer he's an international collab with Drake a Canadian rapper who hit the billboard plus his collab with the queen Beyonce making him win his first grammy awards apart from that bigwiz had other awards like headies, BETs awards good luck to him.
"I'm so tired and I smell like shit that was a hell of a party," Khloe said pulling off her cloth as well, Khloe was smiling when Mercedes poked her.
"Do I look funny to you, why are you smiling?" she asked taking out a clean cloth she was going to wear as soon as she showered.
"I make out with a girl last night well she's science so I'm hoping to meet her on Monday maybe we can hang out" Mercedes went over and sat close to her their knee bumped into each other although she can smell the stink of her breath she needs to shower,
"Kamari pls hurry up we are waiting for you-
She drift her glance to the bedroom before refocusing on Khloe who grinned like a toddler's first day in the toy house.
"I thought you said you were shy so are you finally coming out" Mercedes seems happy for her, but just then Kamari came out.
"Omg I feel good, my grandma will be so mad at me thankGod I texted her but she did not respond," Kamari said shuffling her clothes in her bag. Not to mention how she grab any lotion on the Mercedes dresser.
"You need to slow down," Mercedes said abruptly reminding her both of their parents are mad as well she knows ten thousand ways to lie and handle grannies so chill out girl they have to eat breakfast before anyone is leaving.
"Ohh I see, Khloe you haven't answered my question" Mercedes repeated now heading to the shower.
"I will talk to my mom about it for my dad I'm not sure he's kind of old school plus his moral is so strict like he wrote the Bible himself" Kamari threw her hands in the air trying to figure out what they are talking about.?
"Well, I kissed a girl last night" Kamari looked like she was aware of it but never thought she was a lesbian. She asked Khloe if she was ready to come out Mercedes interrupted from the bathroom saying that's the problem not in a million years is Khloe going to come out.
"Well, that's bad for you Khloe you can't just assume your parent will disapprove is your happiness, not theirs -
Kamari gets interjected by Mercedes from the bathroom who Yelped.
"Ohh shit Kamari you didn't set warm temperatures don't tell me, you bathe cold water every day?
Kamari not even responding Mercedes cut in again not minding of Kamari responded to her or not all she want to do is make a point on Khloe sexuality.
"Christ! I tell her that everyday stop sacrificing her happiness because of her parent who has already lived life, do you know she haven't even admitted it yet before we jump to the conclusion who's this lucky girl"
"Omg that's so cute what's her name hold on the girl I saw you with, I thought you were drunk" Mercedes already put the shower on.
"Khloe had always been shy since our second year there is this girl that later got transferred she was Khloe crush I'm glad she find someone I'm so happy for you baby girl," Mercedes said and Kamari concludes she's happy for her too.
They all went down for breakfast Mercedes's mom was already at the dining table she wasn't smiling like she did yesterday.
"I'm sorry mom I promise is not going to happen again," she said and took her to sit, Kamari and Khloe sat down too, she devour the food her mum holds a glass of wine, remind Kamari of her mol she literally drinks wine with everything.
"You need to slow down honey"
She warned Mercedes who sluggishly forks her food in her mouth if her mom has any idea how much liquid she took last night heh. Ignoring her glares the girls kept on eating they have a stomach to fill God heaven knows if Jack and Nick mixed that liquid with a hunger spell because they feel extremely hungry thankfully they are not warlocks there is no such thing.
"Did any of you have sex last night I'm pretty sure Florence said y'all were saying all kinds of nasty stuff" Mercedes glanced at Florence then her mom she grip the fork tightly must Florence say every damn thing.
"We were drunk mom it wasn't something serious besides how do you expect me to explain things under the influence of alcohol-
her mom hit the table which frightens Kamari and Khloe looking angry doesn't suit her Kamari muttered to herself she looks better when she smiled.
Mercedes is surprised about the sudden act of hitting the table she never does that fear kind of scared a little honestly her mum is not the type that bite perhaps they Must've been nasty early this morning when they came in.
"You're just seventeen that's going to be your last party else you and I are going to have a problem, enjoy your food and go back upstairs your mom will be here any moment-
She points at Khloe and glances at Kamari just then they heard a car horn Khloe went upstairs to pick up her stuff including Kamari they hugged before going home.
"Happy now," Mercedes said looking at Florence and then at her mom,
"Seriously you're not asking her that question, what if something happened to you girls they found a dead body that night a teacher from your school" Mercedes's jaw dropped instantly. After her mom just opened up,
"You mean mr Felix is dead I saw him last night at the party even if he was giving Kamari weird vibes" her mom took her phone from the table as she stood up, walk around, and kissed Mercedes.
"Is a lady her name is Corey she is all over the news, you need to stay home honey no party for now if you want to party you can invite your friends and use the lobby" tears came from Mercedes eyes she was still holding her fork.
"Miss Corey is a good lady what happen to her? next week is her birthday I was planning on surprising her" her mom felt sober Mercedes loves her it shows she has a don't spot for her.
"I'm sorry baby" she comforts her she started sobbing quietly,
"What about we go drop flowers at her funeral the school had decided to bury her as quick as possible according to the report her head and face were brutally hit on the steering wheel she didn't make it honey" her mom kissed her and went to Florence and whisper to her to keep an eye on her.
Kamari's grandmother was really mad at her after she broke the news about miss Corey Kamari felt sober she haven't attended miss Corey's class but she had heard how students write well about her as a lovey and compassionate person.
"I saw mr Felix getting into the car with her after school are you thinking what I'm thinking" her grandmother answered she isn't thinking anything she was thinking.
"You don't just accuse another teacher of murder besides mr Felix is new what can he possibly do with Corey, I missed her honey she's one of the most beautiful ladies I have come across" Kamari took the stairs quickly something is up with Mr. Felix.
she doesn't need anyone's validation about him like speculating how she's overreacting to what she knows is something is not right. she needs to find out, as she looks through her window she saw mr Felix looking directly at her. Kamari looks so scared for the complete five minutes they stare at each other.
Kamari shut her blinds went and sat on the bed, she have to tell Jack and Mercedes.
What's he doing here and how come he gets to know my address this is creepy as fuck telling her grandma will make her think she's paranoid.
She went over to check if he was still there her body freeze cold it wasn't the air conditioning.
"Jesus Christ!!! Holy shit" she relived he wasn't there any longer guess what first thing first on Monday is confront him.
