2024-10-29 19:42:56She drove into the black gate which had so many securities around and we entered into the Winthorpe mansion.
Oh, my gee! This is more than a mansion. It's incredible.No wonder the winthrop mansion has been the talk of the city.The party which was a beanfeast, was taking place outside and mum and I alighted from the car after she parked in the parking lot.
I almost opened my mouth in bemusement as I looked around the mansion. Just the outside was looking this great. I could imagine how the inside would look like. Wow!
"Matilda!" a woman called mum's name and scuttled towards us as we approached the party.
Oh! It was Ryan's mum."Becky!" Mum also called and they both hugged each other.
Wow! Ryan's mum was looking so beautiful."I'm glad you could make it" she said and took her eyes to me."Oh, my! Is this Bethel?"
"Good evening ma'am" I greeted with a light smile.
"Oh, dearie! How re you? She's so beautiful".
"I'm fine ma'am. Thanks"
"Okay Matilda. Come on; my husband's been waiting for you".
"Oh! Of course" mum replied and turned to me.
"Just make yourself comfortable okay? I'll be joining you soon" she said to me and I nodded and she left with Ryan's mum.
Hold on; what discussion does she have with them?
I looked around and started sauntering into the party. I don't even know anyone here. I can't believe mum left me all alone.The party was buzzing with life as lots of people filled the place -most of which were average men and women.
I walked to a table which was empty and took a seat. There were already drinks on the table and I took a glass of wine to suit myself
By the way, where's the celebrant? Shouldn't he be around or something?My phone started ringing and I brought it out from my bag and discovered it was Nicole.
"Hey Best" she said on the phone immediately I picked up.
Luckily, the sound of the music playing from the party wasn't too high."Hey" I said lowly, sounding tired.
"Oh, my God! You're at the party already right? Have you seen Ryan?" She said excitedly and I scoffed."No ma" I replied, itching the back of my neck.
"Awwn. Why? Anyway, don't forget to take pictures okay? Bye" she quickly and ended the call.
Gosh! This girl's really crazy.I sighed and drank from my glsss again. What a boring party. Well, I guess it's because I don't have anyone to talk to.
I looked around and my eyes met with a group of boys, talking and staring at me.
What ever.By the way, where could Ryan's step siblings be? Oh! Maybe they didn't care to attend the party, since they're not in good terms.
Or maybe they're here. I don't even know them.pI took my phone and started playing games with it. A waitress passed by with some chocolates and cupcakes and I took some from her.
I ate with relishement and played with my phone and after a while, I felt pressed and needed to make use of the restroom.
I stood up with my bag and looked around. How do I even get to the restroom? Where should I go?
I stopped one of the waitresses and asked.
"Please how do I get to the restroom?""Um...you can go to way" she said and pointed to a separate building from the mansion.
I thanked her and followed the lead but when I got there - to the entrance -I saw some guards standing there.
I tried going in, but they stopped me.'Sorry ma'am, but you can't go in for now" one of them said and I flinched.
Huh?"Why?" I asked, surprised.
"You can't. If you can wait a little longer" another replied, making me more confused.
Okay; what's going on? Why are they stopping me from going in?
"B...But, I'm so pressed right now. Can you find me an alternative?" I grumbled and immediately, someone I knew came up."Hey, Bethel;" he called, surprised.
He was a friend of my mum."Good evening, sir" I greeted with a perfunctory smile.
Gosh!I really need to wee.
"Good evening dear. How're you doing? Uh...what's going on?" He asked and I couldn't tell which to reply first.
"I'm trying to make use of the restroom, but they're not letting me in" I said with a pained look and he looked at the securities.
"Why's that? Is something wrong?" He asked.
"Sir, Ryan's in there and he instructed us not to let anyone in" one of the grumpy men replied.
Wait...hold on;
Did I just hear correctly?Ryan's in the restroom???Bab terkait

"Oh!" He mouthed and paused."Well, she can still make use of it. It isn't like she's gonna bump into the room he's using or something. Just be careful; Bethel; okay?"W...What?I...I don't think I can go in."He had gone left. So, I think you should go right" one of the guards said, looking at me.Oh, my God!They're really letting me in.I was tempted to say 'I'll wait',But I was so pressed and needed to wee.What do I do?"Come on, Bethel. Or do you wanna wait?' Mum's friend asked and I looked at him, speechless.Then, I shook my head and started walking in. Oh, God! I suddenly feel so nervous.Ryan's in here?What if he sees me?Like...We get to meet or something?I kept counting my steps as I walked into the big room which looked like a sitting room and then I got to a passage with a parting.Hold on; which way did the guard ask me to go out again?Oh, God! I've forgotten.I looked left and right and

So tell me, how was...""You wouldn't believe what happened" I caught her off, knowing what she wanted to say.Her eyes beamed immediately."Oh, my gee!

Ryan's Pov:"Ryan, come on; you can't possibly do this to me. You can't ditch me" the bitch said as she stood in front of me.I stood up quietly from the bed and went to sit in front of my system which was facing the window. This way, I was now backing her.I was shirtless and undoubtedly, just my bare skin was driving her crazy."Get out of my room Michelle' I said calmly as I brought out stick from my cigarette pack and reached for my lighter."Ryan please; you know I love you. You can just use me and dump me. I gave you my dignity" she said and had to scoff."Stop lying bitch" I said lowly as I lit the cigarette and stuck it in my mouth."Fine! I know you didn't meet me as a virgin; but you're the second guy's that ever crossed my legs. I told you the first one was done forcefully. You're the first guy I've given it to willingly. You can't do this to me, Ryan."I sighed and turned on my laptop.

Just make sure you're ready before 4 pm cause that's when the Winthorpe family will be coming over for dinner. Put on something nice and look good."I've already called for some caterers and they'll be here In a while to prepare the meals.
