Chapter Five - Australia and Lioness

CHAPTER THREE

A week later and my friendship with Tawny was on another level.

I've actually honestly never met someone and become so comfortable with them in such short notice. Which is what shocked me in the first place. As much as I talk a lot, I was told I'm an introvert... but she turned that upside down.

It was like this was planned. Like God had her crash my camera, that I still remind her off, on purpose.

You know when they say nothing is coincidental, I found out after meeting this woman. She was more amazing everyday.

So, you know that she has used about R9k on me within two days of meeting and that made me feel like shit... because I didn't own businesses and I didn't dress well and didn't have as much money as she does.. but this week when we were meeting, it was my treat and I have to say, she loved the non-expensive fetty food I made her eat. She complained about it being too much junk though, but ate it anyways, I swear she was fucken amazing.

'you're awful... now my tummy hurts...'

I laughed at how much of a big baby she was being, "do you want me to apologize? It was nice.. wasn't it?"

She groaned, 'you can't do this to me Mimi... I have to keep my body in good shape. Stop feeding me these addictive junk food please... please..'

See... mission accomplished.

'next time when we meet again it's my treat then.. I can't anymore. I'm going to feed you leafs, trees, vegetables, fruits and nothing else.. I swear..' Tawny said with a sigh and I laughed, "aww you sound like such a good baby. Your body is fine.. eat shit and kill it at the gym."

'the same gym that you refuse to come to with me...'

I shook my head like she was right in front of me, "no no no.. giiirl I love your ass but ain't doing that shit. My body is fine..."

'fuck... yes your body is fineeee as fuck.. but I have to maintain mine coz I'm not getting younger and you're making it hard. Now I'm craving for that bunny chow..' she sounded so cute being a big baby.

I laughed, "I don't even feel for you.. I'm not sorry.."

'you are thee worst person I've ever met...'

"Heey take that back.. I'm over here thankful to God for making you crash on me and you say that... take it back.."

She laughed, 'God you're an idiot..'

Then her door made a sound. She cleared her throat, 'let me go explain to my friends why I can't go workout.. because there's someone who fed me junk...'

"Oh yeah blame me.. go ahead and blame me because I don't have money to take you to these expensive places.."

'oh My God you're unbelievably shitty.. I have to go... sleep well when you do...'

"Don't break a bone at the gym..." then I hung up.

I smiled proudly and put my phone down. Tawny and I's friendship was tight within two weeks of knowing each other and I couldn't complain. I felt like I knew her longer, like she was somewhere at the back of my head hiding then came out at the right time..

She was very busy.. but she always made time to hang out, which I was thankful for everyday.

My sister? Well, I haven't talked to her and she hasn't gotten back to me. She was probably busy... like always.

The door opened startling me a bit and my boyfriend showed up followed by his friend, Anthony.

"Hey boys..." I said getting up from the couch and hugging my boyfriend. I held him a bit longer and connected our lips.

He smiled and pulled away a bit, "I should disappear for two days again because darn I'm feeling the love right now..."

I furrowed my brows at him, "babe what the..? Do you mean I don't love you when you are here all the time?"

He turned to Anthony and scratched the back of his head. Wooooooow...

"Wooow.. just fucken woooow..."

He laughed and pulled me into another hug, "I'm kidding babe.. you love me always.. anyways I miss you and I was here to complain.."

I rolled my eyes and went to give Anthony a hug, "happy you who disappears for 24 hours and then come back to tell me you're here to complain for missing me."

He laughed again but whined this time around "come on babeee... I miss you... soo much.."

"I know babe.. I missed you more.. so can we like make next week about us only.. I really miss you" I said that last line seductively gaining a groan from Anthony..

I laughed and Nash kissed me, "yes.. totally.. so tell your roommate to find a place for the weekend.."

I kissed his lips, "I definitely will... So where's Rico..."

"Working.. I hate growing up and responsibilities.. if I didn't have that, I'd spend every second with you.." he said kissing my hand.

"Totally with you babe..."

"You guys will make me vomit.."

"Me too..." Freya walked in from her room. Nash and I laughed at them, "we didn't say be single... so leave us alone.. please.."

"Talking about that.. Freyy.. so I heard you'll need a place to crash the next coming weekend and I just wanted to say my place is open you know..."

I furrowed my brows at Anthony.. I couldn't believe he was hitting on Freya. They always joke about how weird my roommate is at school and how they should tease her or flirt with her just to see how she reacts. What killed me is when they said she's a virgin, and they didn't know they were telling the truth. I just hated how they joke about this as if Freya won't ever date anyone.

I sighed, "ewww Tony.. leave Freya She's got her animals to worry about and not your idiot self.."

"On second thoughts.. I'm fine by myself.. so yeaah.."

We all laughed at him.

Nash went to the fridge and took out a can of soda then threw one to Anthony too and looked at me, "stay beautiful.. I'll see you on Sunday afternoon okay.. I have work tomorrow.."

"I'll see you.. I might go see Tee tomorrow.. I'm not totally sure yet.." I said referring to the new nickname I got for Tawny.

"I need to meet this Tee girl.."

I smiled, "really?"

My boyfriend nodded his head, "definitely. I can't be letting a camera killer I don't know see my girl. I need to meet her and set her straight for what she did.."

I laughed because Nash was so tiny compared to Tawny. My boyfriend wasn't working out, in fact I bet he wouldn't run for two minutes and not complain.. Tawny on the other hand.. darn, she was an athlete. So him saying he needs to sort her out kinda killed me coz ge was going to be the one sorted out.

"Baby don't even try that on her.. but I'll tell her to meet you guys.. She's just busy with stuff you know.."

My boyfriend laughed, "is she a drug dealer? Busy with Stuff?"

Anthony groaned looking at his phone, "fuuuuuck nooooo Nash you just messed our game night..."

We all stared at my boyfriend's friend confused and he sighed, "what game night?"

"Lioness is on.. against Australia..."

Then it suddenly registered to my boyfriend, "fuuuck.. Bookie Ladies.."

I looked at them confused, "someone speak english and not sports.."

Nash sighed, "darn how can I forget that our ladies are having a friendly match against Australia this Saturday?"

"What ladies?" I asked and Freya laughed, "rugby Amora.. rugby.. godness you should take time to watch sports.. it's healthy for your mind.."

"Seeing old men run after a ball or knock each other out coz of a ball is healthy? How the fuck?"

"It's healthy as fuck... God I can't wait to watch it... and see Lioness.. God some women are so blessed.. if I was gay I'd totally do her.. maybe even now.. she can actually turn me gay and I wouldn't mind. That woman is beautiful and and smart and then she fucken plays.. did you guys see her body..."

My boyfriend and her friend joined in and I watched amused as they talked about this amazing 'Lioness" chick who apparently was fucken good at rugby. Then immediately I thought about Tee and how I was like she'd make a better rugby player coz of her body. I bet she'd be better than that darn Lioness..

"Fuck.. baby.. baby..." my boyfriend said turning to me and I rolled my eyes. No.. I missed him and next week was ours. I wasn't going to let stupid rugby and Lioness to mess that up.. So without even smiling, I pulled him closer to me and connected our lips, then ran my hand to the front of his pants touching his crotch lightly.

He sighed in my mouth, "baby there's people.."

I pulled away, "that... or your rugby girlfriend Lioness... it's up to you.." then I turned around and left them all watching me in awe.

I missed his ass and he needed to make that weekend about us coz he's forever working on these other weekends.. that one was mine and his.

"Baby you turned me on..." he called out for me and I opened my bedroom door then turned to him, "come let me ride your pony next weekend.. I love you baby..."

And I heard him sigh before I closed the door..

After taking a shower and getting ready for bed. My phone was beeping. I took it and saw a text from my boyfriend.

BABY: come ride it... 😍😘👇😉😋😎🍆

I smiled. That's my baby. Wise choice he made. Wise choice.

Saturday came well and I called Tee in the morning but she didn't respond. I sighed and put my phone away then took a shower and quickly came out. Freya was sitting there watching tv or maybe the tv was watching her coz she looked like she had her eyes closed.

I cleared my throat and she jumped sitting up, "I'm up.."

I laughed, "you're an idiot. Clean this place.. okay.. I'm going to paint.."

I put on my saggy clothes and went to the art studio at school.. when Paris had no time for me.. I usually buried myself in painting... and when I got my brush and everything...I did exactly that.. bury me in it..

Before I knew it, it was after day and I was done.. the painting was a girl who was at the beach drowning and another one standing on the outside looking at her phone.

It was so personal... and held so much meaning behind it... 'Save me... I'm drowning...' I wrote the painting at the back and then placed it in a plastic then by the sun so that it will quickly dry..

I then took my phone and only had one message from my boyfriend telling me not to kill myself with painting. Ahh he talked to Freya..

I responded to him and then gathered my shit and made my way to the dorm. The trip was short as always and I dipped myself in the shower before even muttering a word.

Around 6 I was done and to my surprise Freya cooked for me. I took the food and remembered to joke first, "are you poisoning me to actually like your animals?"

She laughed, "is this the first time I'm cooking for your ass? And by the way you hate them, even poison wouldn't work on you..."

I laughed and kissed her cheek, "you're right there.."

We ate as and then later I went to bed. My phone quickly rang and it was the girl who went ghost today.

"Hey.." I answered and she sighed, 'hey you.. how are you?'

"Good... I'm okay and how are you?"

I heard her shuffle around, 'I'm fine.. umh.. so I'm sorry I missed your call.. in the morning I was taking care of a few things..'

"No problem.. are they taken care off? All of them?"

'no.. I need to finish them off tomorrow. I had training so I couldn't finish them off.. God I need to hire myself a P.A..'

"Can I be it. And please pay me good.."

She laughed, 'oh yeah?'

"Yeah.. I'm up for it.. and I can come see you tomorrow so that you can interview me.. see, two birds with one stone. I come see you and then you also interview me..."

I heard her sigh, 'umh... you can't tomorrow. I can't see you.. I have stuff to take care of remember?'

My heart sank a bit and I whispered, "I miss seeing you.."

'I know.. I do too..'

"So when can I come see you then? On Monday?" I asked and she sighed again, 'umh... Mimi... we can't.. I can't see you on Monday either..'

What?

I furrowed my brows in confusion, "did I do something wrong or say something wrong Tee..?"

'uhh... whaaat? What makes you ask that?'

I rolled my eyes as if she could see me, "because duh you're acting fucken weird here. You are not up to seeing me... what's wrong?"

'nothing's wrong stop worrying.. but I wanna tell you something..'

"Shoot..."

'I'm going to Australia...'

I rolled my eyes, "what is it with peope and Australia?"

'why are you saying that? Are other people going to Australia too?'

I shook my head like she was right in front of me, "no... my roommate is making noise about it and some Lioness.. Do you watch sport?.."

'I do actually watch sport..' she said giggling a bit.

"Then you know what they are talking about... and see if I was your PA I'd be coming to Australia with you and then I wouldn't miss you."

'you're cute... really fucken cute I tell you.' She said that laughing.

"When will you get back...? From there?"

'On Monday...'

"Wait... you're leaving tomorrow night?"

She shuffled again, 'na.ah... I'm leaving on Monday...so Yeah..'

I furrowed, she's leaving for a week, "so this means I was seeing you for the last time then? Tee I'm going to miss you.."

I heard her sigh, 'I'm sorry okay.. I'll miss you too..'

"Can't I see you before you go... please.. I just.. please..."

'yeah... I'll.. see tomorrow night.. if that's okay with you.. it will be late though..'

"Yeah.. tomorrow night.." I was now starting to be happy.

'let me get back to what I was doing...'

"Thank you for the call. Take care.. I'll see you tomorrow night.... I hope."

'yeah....'

..

The night was short and before I knew it it was Sunday afternoon and I was anxious about seeing Tee tonight. She was leaving for a week and I kinda felt a bit sad about it but at least I was going to meet her.. so I guess I won't miss her that much..

It was around 9pm, I was already in my PJs after a shower when my phone vibrated. I took it out and saw a text from her.

TEE: Come out...

ME: on my way.

I put the phone on charge and put on my gown then headed out.

I saw her car parking by the main gate. I talked to security and asked her to come in. Even if we was meeting for five minutes it wasn't going to be out there in such an expensive car.

She drove in, parked right next to the gate inside and got out of her car. I went to her and hugged her so tight not forgetting to inhale her scent. I've come to love how she smelled and how my body fits perfect right into hers.

She kissed the top of my head then giggled, "hey...to you too."

I held on, "sorry I'm just going to miss having you around Tee.."

She brushed my back and kissed my cheek now since I was looking at her, "me too.."

"So... a week in Australia hey.. you should enjoy really.. and not be too much to working out or training whatever it is that you do.."

She laughed, "but that's part of my everyday.. but I promise I'll enjoy.. a lot."

I pulled away and looked at her, "good.. you can go now... I just wanted to see you and tell you to travel safe..."

She stood there and looked at me, I honestly couldn't tell how her facial expression was because it was really dark and she was facing away from the outside light, and since I was standing in front of her, the light was right on my face, so she could see me.

"So you'll chase me away...? Just like that..?"

I shrugged, "I got what I wanted... which was to see you..so byeeee.. fly away to Australia and leave me here.."

She kept quiet for a while and then I made out her shaking her head a bit, "you're an idiot... umh.. so listen I wanted to tell you something."

"Tell me something I don't know... like the one you wanna say."

She just looked at me. And I sighed, "okay.. I'm done being an idiot.. so tell me. What's up?"

Then her phone suddenly rang, she sighed, "sorry.. I have to take this.."

"Sure..."

She answered, "hey... yeah I am.. I did... what? And you're telling me that now? Fuck dude it's 9pm. Fine.. finee.. I said fine.. I'll be on it.."

Fuck... she was leaving..

"So this is it..?" I said when she lifted her head up and she nodded her head, "yeah.. I'm sorry..."

We stood a bit and looked at each other, it was like she wanted to say something or to come closer to me.

She shook her head a bit again, "okay... let me go for real now.. it was good seeing you okay."

I walked closer to her and hugged her again, since she was being a dick and acting weird, "promise me you'll see me first thing when you get back.."

"I promise to see you first thing.. I'll go bath and then come see you. I promise..."

"Who said you need a bath before? Can't you just come here straight from the airport." I joked and she chuckled, "you really suck.. let me go before you make me forget to bath.."

I laughed, "well go bath and bath before you see me.. I'll wait..."

She kissed my forehead, "I gotta run.. so see you first thing when I get back.."

I felt a bit sad but she had to leave, so I pulled away and took a step back, "I'll miss you Tee.."

"Will talk.. I'll text in between work.. Okay.."

I nodded as I watched her go inside her car, "okay... you do that..."

I felt a bit weird. Empty to be exact and I didn't understand why. I just smiled sadly as I watched her car drive away. Yeah, she has become one of the closest people in my life, maybe that's why I felt so sad.

I stupidly sent her a text..

ME: Have a safe flight tomorrow ❤
