Who Called?

Hesitation was written all over her face as she looked at

the user who called her.

It was Oddie.

A sigh escaped her lips. What is on with this guy? As

she swipes and answers the call, laughter immediately erupted

from the other side.

"Why are you laughing?" she asked.

"Are you scared?" Oddie asked.

"Scared of what?" she asked in return.

"Oh come on, you thought that dress you were wearing

was from someone else."

"So, it was really you?" Emmie raised one of her

eyebrows, annoyed by his joke. "Why did you deny it earlier?"

"I'm sorry, if I scared you." Oddie's voice became

serious.

"Please next times don't do that, it'll freak me out," she

uttered.

"Promise, I won't do it again," he responded. "Are you

ready? Should I come to pick you up?" he asked.

"Yes, I'm ready," she replied. She looked at herself in the

mirror again before twirling in enthusiasm. Will he like it?

"Alright, I'm coming in two minutes," he said before

ending the call.

It was a good thing that she made an extra effort and

bought two more pairs of footwear in exchange for the one she's

wearing. Emmie let out a thin smile before putting on her black

sandals. It suits her dress perfectly.

As she waited for Oddie to come and pick her up, she

decided to scroll all over her Facebook account not until a friend

request popped up from out of nowhere. It came from a

username named My Senorita. Upon her hint of curiosity, she

decided to check his profile out. It had little information about

him and the only distinguishing feature was a profile picture of a

hammerhead car.

Emmie didn't know what drew her in, for her to accept

instead of delete or ignore. She was full of curiosity that she let it

just like that.

After a while, she came back to scrolling all over her

timeline when she received a message request. As she was about

to check it out, she heard a knock coming from the door.

Emmie made her way towards the entrance, only to

reveal the siblings, eyeing her from head to toe.

"Let's go," Oddette said; excitement was written all over

her face. Her head then turned to look at her best friend's brother.

He was obviously eyeing her more, especially about the cleavage

part. A chuckle secretly escaped her lips.

They walked side by side until they reached their

destination. It was a five minute walk from her room towards the

gaping area with people gathering and mingling with each other.

The DJ's voice echoed throughout the spacious area

mixed with the loud music engulfing the area. It was quite

astonishing.

As they made their way towards their spot, they found

the couple; Miranda and Alfred dancing near the bonfire. They

had such wide smiles on their faces as they moved to the tune of

the music. Oddette followed them and chased towards the middle

while Oddie on the other hand, made his way towards her side.

"I was not mistaken when I chose that dress for you. You

look so alluring, babe," he whispered. She could feel his breathe

across her ear, tickling the pit of her stomach. "Although... I

prefer to party in our own room and dance towards the rhythmic

of our own bodies," he added, teasingly.

Instead of joining their friends who were ready to pound

towards the sound of the loud music, the two of them decided to

take a table and wait there. They were only drinking glasses of

cocktails when they found their three companions approaching

them.

"I want to get more drinks," Oddette said. She wiped off

the sweat forming at her forehead as a gaping smile crossed her

lips. The couple and Oddie chose to take a red wine for their

food and how they enjoyed the delicious meal in front of them.

"Can you please come with me, Emmie?" she asked.

Since the two of them decided to take more drinks on

their table, they made their way towards the counter. There were

a lot of people partying that while they were on their way back to

their place, she could hear a voice speaking from behind her.

"You have such an alluring beauty." Those words gave

her shiver down her spine as Emmie felt it was for her to hear.

Her heart started beating fast, seconds of thoughts ran towards

her head. Who is it?

When she decided to turn around and face the person,

the man already turned his gaze away from her.

"I didn't know that this beautiful lady was snobbish," the

voice added. Confusion was written all over her face but the

thought of being hit at such a crowded place was more.

Emmie only noticed his broad strong shoulders wearing

a striped blue shirt. It looked like he was almost the same height

as Oddie but nevertheless, she shook her head.

"Hey are you alright? What are you looking for?" It's

Oddette voice that's distracted her from looking at the back of

the man. She turned to her friend who was holding two glasses

of cocktail drinks.

"It's nothing," she responded. She put up some

barbeques on her plate followed by chicken before going back to

their table.

Upon reaching their place, Emmie's eyes immediately

landed towards where Oddie would sit. He was not there.

Her eyes roamed the area, only to spot him dancing with

a random woman on the sand. Their bodies were almost rubbing,

the woman's hand embracing his nape while he would travel his

hands towards her waist. She squinted her eyes out of anger

while blood rushed through her head and a fast pounding heart.

In no time, she witnessed the two of them kissing. What

the hell is going on?
