You've got to be kidding ....."
That was the statement that escaped orabelle tiny little lips although small for her face but perfect for her appearance. She glared at the delivery man at her front , there's no way her mom would order such a too feminine clothes for her . Urghhh... This her inheritance is driving her crazy. First she wouldn't be able to write a stories or should I say to be an online author and then , she would have to work her butt off but what worried her in that aspect is won't it get bored siting in a chair staying at countless white sheet with alot of words written in black ink damn?... How boring!!!???. The worst of it all is she would have to wear a skirt, bra and put up some make ups women put to look more attractive wow! how thrilling she thought sarcastically
How would she look ? She had never worn a skirt since junior high and that was how many years ago? 15 years ago. Boy this whole idea of becoming the CEO of Luther enterprise is really exhausting...man. she thanked the delivery guy after signing some necessary papers then closed the door
She stared at the cocktail dress she just removed from the box and dumped on the bed what is she going to do with this?she's to used to male attire to feel comfortable in anything like this dress on the bed
she more like glared at the cloth there's no way she will be putting this on and putting her leg on that heels that looked like mount Everest. She dialled Mama's number and wait for it to be answered
"Be fast on what you have to tell me " came the stern - firm motherly voice
" I can't wear this mom .... I will look so weird and besides it quiet uncomfortable for me"
" Have you try it on?
"No....?
" Then you can't tell"
" I can't do this mom how about I dress in that tailored suit you bought for me last thanks giving?
"No" came the immediate reply
"But why?
" Just don't"
" Mo...m" she said looking and sound hopelessly and helplessly frustrated if you know what I mean in situation whereby you mom dictate how you must look
There was silence and the other woman seems calm as she responds
"You wouldn't want to chase a away suitable suitor"came the reply and it was followed by a chuckle then the mother-girlish giggle
Orabelle rolled her eyes . Seriously.....? Was this all about the suitors? It not like she found it odd but no suitor has come for her since her masters graduation and she don't find it odd I mean who would marry a girl who doesn't like make ups, have a nasty anger,loves playing childishly,loves pranking people for fun, always looking happy in male clothes , hates latest fashion styles and prefers clothes with no indication that it is expensive even if she was the only child of a multi billionaire. You know it would take a weird man to love this qualities not the Mr rich nice prefect guys she's always surrounded with. she tried to argue some more with her mom but it proves futile so she ended the call she had never had to dress like this before never
But this it one of her mother's you- have- to be- perfect business dinner so she picked up her books she had been studying on and place it on the book shelf before heading to the bathroom
Orabelle glanced around the party . Too many people, too many chatter and laughter from all angles of the room . The atmosphere is charge with happiness and laughter be it from their heart or not she strolled to the bar barefooted. There's no way she would put her leg on that Mount Everest of a heel.
She sat down and order for a shot then turn around to scan the people in the party everyone seems to have something to talk and laugh about . They look elegantly and expensively dressed .Who wouldn't be? Despite the laughter and all they seems to be in competition with one another. Most people came for parties to know who has more fashion sense than they . Stupid right ? But that's the truth about people who feels you should live the best life you can afford they seems to forget they can't afford most lives.
Her eyes found her mom speaking to someone in the corner of the room maybe something about business .she knows this because her mom rarely talks to the male gender about anything other than business related issues. Being a single mom ,rich , still very pretty and young she still doesn't give a damn about men and their various charms well I can say that's a thing the mother and daughter have in common . The difference in their appearance is that while her mom's backside and frontside is full she only have a wide hip although curvy. But she hide those endowment in this baggie clothes she do wear .Being a pretty face with out a good backside had never bothered she saw it as something one shouldn't bother about since it was not given to you by your creator that was why she avoided female friends as they have nothing to talk about other than , babies , boyfriends, love ;you know those never-in-reality kind of love girls do dream about., Marriage or those mind- blowing sex they had on weekends that particular topic still disgust her not because she's still a virgin ..... Okay I will say maybe it because she's still a virgin , those kind of virgin that feel uncomfortable when it comes to the topic of sex education.But it no fault of hers
Her mom turned round and gave her a wink , pointing towards her direction as she speak with the man . Orabelle nodded at the man who was staring intensely at her but raise an eyebrow when she s notice the man's lustful expression . She stood up to leave and maybe find something interesting to do since her God damned bestie has refused to pick any of her class or even call back but her damn tight gown chose the moment to tear at the butt side from the force she used in standing she couldn't do anything if she dare to stand her fair ass would be in view holy shit! what a nice way to embrace her femininity just then someone walked up toher
"Hi lovely" a deep baritone called out. She turned to the stranger then glared fiercely at him as if to say she want no intrusion
" Braxton...? seriously?" She said tight with anger
"Woah I know you are mad but can you not lash out at this party you don't want to make me look unattractive" he said trying his luck to calm her down
" Dude you said you would arrive here early for the dancing appointment but what happened you're no where to be found and mom sieze the opportunity to dress me as a doll " she said grimacing at his amused smile
"I am sorry kiora came by and one thing led to another I forgot the appointment" He said trying his best to sound and look apologetic. Urghhh when would this best friend of hers fry to get focused without being distracted by what the skirt brings. She can see why he never had a stabled relationship since their teenage years .he sat beside her reaching out for her drink after draining it all he made a contented sound and give her a friendly nudge She sighed and lean-to whisper her current embarrassing situation at him. It was followed by a chuckle then an embarrassing laughter that made orabelle to punch his arm causing him to whine in pains but their moment was interrupted by the man from earlier
"The man giving you any problem miss? He said looking all serious . Ok he's hot but orabelle have never noticed a hot guy as she consider as self to be a male even when she's not and she will never be
"Does it look like we are having a problem? Braxton answered for her narrowing his gaze at the man .
Orabelle gave him the kind of look a man would give to another man seeking trouble. But the man ignored them all and ordered a drink from the bar looking suspiciously at both orabelle and Braxton who was also staring
Any problem? He asked
"We should be asking you" they said in unison that made the man looked perplexed.
" Are you siblings? The man asked " because I see no resemblance"
Instead of answering that Braxton turned to orabelle and they continued their conversation. The man caught the angry but sorry look of the girl's mom and nodded as if to say it's okay.
