CHAPTER 4

Daisy's POV

It was two days to our trip to Hawaii and dad came into my room that morning to explain what happened in the office the day before. I still couldn't believe it so I ignored him.

"Your mother has been starving me", he defended himself and I got angry. He usually calls aunt Susana my mother even though I always tell him that she wasn't.

"Starving you? Is it the hamburger that you can't do without?" I retorted in anger.

He smiled. "Princess, you're still a little girl so I'd assumed you won't understand."

"Little girl, dad? I'm 18 for goodness sake.", I almost screamed. "When did all of these start? Even though I don't like Aunt Susana and you know it, she is your legal wife and you shouldn't be caught cheating on her. How will you feel if she cheats on you? And of all people, Lizzy? I liked her."

"Lizzy is an amazing lady." He uttered.

I scowled and was about to answer him when Maria barged in. "Dee..dee, what's up?" She asked and apologized quickly when she saw dad with me. She turned to go out when dad asked her to stay back while he left.

"I have good news and bad news", she announced as she sat beside me on the bed.

"What happened?" I questioned in fear.

Her face was expressionless and I couldn't try to guess what had happened.

"Which do you want? Good news or bad news?" She asked nonchalantly.

"Both" I replied.

"Which do you want first?"

I pondered over it for a while before saying. "Good news."

"Ok", she grinned and stood up. "There is a party tonight. A send forth party for all of us going to college by next month. The head boy organized it."

"Is that the good news?" I hissed and rolled my eyes.

"Yes, it is."

"What's the bad one then?"

She sighed and sat next to me. "We are moving from New York."

"What? Relocating? Why?" I exclaimed and sat upright.

"Mum says her business thrives more in England."

"Oh My God! When are you moving?"

"Tomorrow", she answered and a tear dropped from her eyes. "I told Eric to apply to the college there so we can be in the same school but he said no. He doesn't want to sacrifice for me, Deedee."

"Oh Maria", I engulfed her in a hug.

Which school is he going to?" I asked.

"MJ University."

"That's far away from England", I started.

"Yeah."

"I'm sorry. I don't even know what to say", I looked at her with sympathy. I knew it was coming to that. I have always known she would be heartbroken if Eric breaks up with her.

"Don't give me that look", she sniffed and wiped away the lone tear. 

"That's why I want us to attend the party", she recovered from the hurt within minutes and beamed with excitement. That was the first time I would see Maria crying and it hurts.

"So are you going?" She asked.

"Nope", I replied and flung myself to the bed. 'The last party was a disaster, I thought.

"Why? Don't be boring Daisy. Do this for me. I'm leaving tomorrow."

"Tomorrow?" I sat upright when she reminded me. "Oh My God! I'm going to miss you so much, Maria", I hugged her tightly. "What will I do without you?"

"Nothing", she replied. "Absolutely nothing", she smirked and I hit her head, before hugging her again.

"Don't strangle me. I'll keep in touch and come visit you soon, maybe in college."

I stared at her and broke down in tears. I knew I was going to miss the good and crazy memories with Maria. She was more than a friend. She was a sister and she played a motherly role in my life. I f****** loved her. She embraced me again and tried to pacify me with, "I'll come visiting soon."

"So are we going?" She asked again.

"Going where?" I cleaned my tears.

"To the party, of course. You need to get f***** but this time around, use protection. I brought some."

"Shut up", I scolded and she laughed. " I don't want my little baby to have a baby. I'm not ready to be a grandmother yet."

"I said shut up", she laughed again and I smiled. I began to tear up again and we laughed at each other.

"Don't worry, I brought 5 of my erotic books. They will keep you company and remind you of me when I'm gone." She was trying all she could to make me feel better. She was indeed a strong woman.

"Shut up, Maria. Let me enjoy this moment with you."

"You don't want them? If you don't want to, I'll gladly go along with my books."

Deep down, I knew I wanted and needed it with the way I was beginning to feel for the last two days. I needed to know more about myself as a woman and I felt I needed more experience. I can have more experience by reading the books so I nodded in affirmative, still in tears.

"I need them", I said unconsciously. I realized what I said with the funny look on Maria's face and I quickly rephrased it. "I'd love to have them. I'll try to read till the end this time."

"Do you need them?" Maria questioned and burst into a fit of laughter as the embarrassment flushed over my entire face.

*****

Maria searched through my closet, looking for a perfect dress for me to wear to the party. We've spent time together talking about the future and college. Hopefully, if I get admitted into Oxford University, she might come there too if she succeeded in convincing her mother and we'd rock the rock together. That was the plan.

Maria was busy talking about the number of boys she was going to f*** when she gets to college if Eric eventually breaks up with her. 

She was trying to cover up the hurt by talking too much. If we were having this type of conversation a week before, I would have told her to shut the hell up but funny enough, I was enjoying the conversation.

"Why do you like Eric so much?" I asked suddenly.

"Because he's crazy", she answered quickly without thinking of an appropriate answer to give me. "He is the right person for me. I can't withstand a man who is boring or one who talks about books all the time. Eric and I have conversations even during sex."

"What?" I cackled in laughter. I found it unbelievable. "How?"  I scrunch my face in confusion.

"We talk, just like we are doing now." She shrugged.

"Like this; Eric, I went to the mall today and I saw my guys starting at my butts and I told them to f*** off, that I have a boyfriend and his name is Eric", I said dramatically and laughed.

"Something like that?" She smiled.

"Eric is a crazy lover and I love him. I'm going to miss him and his touches. I've never met a man with something as big as his."

"Really? I think I have", I muttered proudly.

Her eyes opened wildly as the dreamy look on her face vanished. "What?"

"Yes. The guy from the other night." I replied.

"The one you didn't use protection with?"

I glared at her. "You know it's him, must you rub my stupidity in my face? I've never had sex with any other person but him."

"Waw! I'd really love to meet him." She grinned with arms akimbo.

"Are you crazy?"

"Are you jealous?" She grinned widely.

"You don't want to share him with me?" She giggled.

I knew she was trying to provoke me on purpose. "You are indeed crazy", I said and wore my dress. She was already dressed as she sat up on my bed. The dreamy look was back on her face. 

She chuckled. "So tell me, how did you two do it?" Was he really big?" I nodded.

"Waw! I love men like that. Tell me how it happened."

"Promise me you won't laugh while I talk."

She laughed for a while and said, "I won't laugh."

"You're already laughing", I groaned and hid my face in my palms.

"Ok. I promise."

"He asked me to dance with him and I did. While we were dancing, I noticed his bulge....." I started.

"You were affecting him?" She interrupted.

"Shut up and listen."

"Ok. Go on."

"We talked randomly after the dance about the future and high school life experience."

"That sounds boring", Maria chipped in again.

"Don't interrupt", I yelled.

"Go on."

"Then we went out for fresh air after he pecked me on the lips. Then I asked him what it feels like to be kissed and he laughed.

"I would do the same too."

I scowled at her and continued. "Then he kissed me, it was heavenly. Afterward, he asked me to get into the car and I did. He caressed and kissed me gently, biting my nipples as I moaned and before I knew it, our clothes were off. I told him I didn't want to have sex yet but he pulled me down and forcefully pushed himself into me. I felt like my little kitty would tear me apart. 

"That is how I like it."

I glared at her.

"You didn't want to have sex yet you asked him to kiss you? I like that nigga already. If I was a guy and you dare say that to me, I will do the same thing he did, you silly girl."

"Crazy girl", Then I remembered I slapped him and I added. "After we regained our strength, he wanted to do anal sex and I slapped him and ran out."

"Eric and I do that all the time." She remarked.

"Anal sex or having another sex a few minutes after one?" I inquired.

"Both. Eric doesn't pull out of me before we begin another marathon. Anytime I go visit him, we do it till daybreak. It's normal."

"You both are crazy."

"That's why we love each other", she stood up and asked. "Are you ready?"

"For?"

"To be banged", she replied sarcastically. "Ready to go to the party, of course", she said, rolled her big attractive eyes, and swung her hips as she moved to the door. "And don't forget the condoms on your bed, they will help."
