77. Men Are Scum

Chapter Seventy Seven; Men Are Scum

Miya’s POV

“Well don’t you know that the men who had went for a war had come back? Not only that, they are all safe and sound so there’s no need for anyone to go to the hospital, in that case, there’ll be a celebratory party!”

“Oh! That’s why you are dressed like this then?”

“Why else would I, you think this is for Gerald? Well you are not entirely wrong, we’ll meet with him there so I have to look good”.

Hah I knew it, no matter even if it was a party, she was still going to see a man. I am happy for her, at least she has found a man that she likes and probably likes her too, they can even keep each other company.

But as for me, I really don’t want to go to the party, after all, I am also a rogue, it’s not in my place to celebrate with them for capturing other rogues and most importantly, he is going to be there.

“Hey you can use this opportunity to confront that Alpha with whatever you have been meaning to ask him!”

Huh!

I was startled when I heard her say that, I’ve not really spoken to anyone about what happened that day in the morning, I didn’t except that she had already known, who would tell her though was it Alpha Xavier? No it can never be.

What of Jamie, we’ll she hadn’t been back in the orphanage since then, I don’t assume they’ll meet outside to talk about me.

Anyway, the fact that he would be there was the most precise reason as to why I don’t want to be seen at that lame party, I had to think of an excuse really fast.

“Cherry, I am not feeling too well, I can’t go to the party, besides, you know that I don’t have any cloth to wear even if I wanted to go.”

That was the best explanation I could give her so that she would let me stay back in peace, I withdrew myself from her hand and headed back to the bed which had been my companion for a few days now, but Cherry didn’t buy it.

“It doesn’t matter Miya, we can stop by at Jamie’s place so that she can have a look on you and you’ll be fine in no time, indoors is really nit good for you.”

Oh my goodness, can’t this lady take a hint? Since when did she care do much about parties,since I know her, she’s never been to one.

“Why do you care do much about this Party in particular, you don’t look like the Party type, I tried to push her away even further but her eyes started watering and she started sniffing.

“Are you crying?” I was suddenly scared that I said something that I shouldn’t.

“So what if I am crying, it’s not like you care, this is my very first party and Gerald had intentionally personally invited me, how can I go, I’ve never even been to a party and I don’t know what to do, if only you agreed to go with my hihihi!”

I soon realized that it’s not because of what I said, she really just needed a friend in such a time and there’s no way I’d let her feel dejected and unappreciated by nit going with her, alas it’s for love she was crying, if only she knew that it was not worth it, she wouldn’t be so eager to meet a man for men are just scum.

But I guess she’ll have to find that for herself.

“Fine give me the cloth let me go and change” I grabbed the cloth she had dropped earlier on the bed and rushed to the bathroom to change.

I couldn’t believe the cloth I was wearing, it was a very short pants gown made with leather material, it has a sheer material for a hand and there was also an opening by the waist area in the side.

The first thing I did was to wonder where she had gotten this kind of cloth from, it reminded me of my teenage days when I used to go out for parties, but it’s been ages since I have worn this kind of dress, I almost didn’t recognize myself in them.

I ran back to the room to question her about the choice of cloth she provided for me, it’s not fair that she had the glittery gown while I’ll have to wear the leathered material short gown and we’ll have to all together, people will look at me as the bad guy here.

“Cherry, I can not believe this, I am not wearing this” I hid behind door and addressed her once I reached the entrance of the door, I didn’t even want her to see me in it.

“What’s wrong? Is it too small for you? I’ve noticed that you have gained weight so I got you the small one , if only I knew your butt was too big to fit in that trouser, I would have picked the bigger one.

“No no, it can fit, it’s just a little uncomfortable for a celebratory gathering like this, isn’t it going to be a party where everyone would be present? How can I come out like this in front of them?”

I entered and showed myself to her doing a one sixty turn only to turn back and see an amusing look on her face.

“I think you are perfectly dressed Miya, can’t you see my dress too? If only you knew how I got this dress, you’ll keep quiet and let me make you up, now come”

She did have a point, her dress was full of glitter and shone even in the dark, she was also wearing heels and had a perfect hair do, she’s definitely dressed for more than a casual welcome party, maybe that’s how they do it here.

I poured and sat on the bed while she brought out a small bag full of cheap makeup and scribbled on my face, the next minute, I was looking at a mirror and I couldn’t believe the person looking back at me, she was so beautiful and gorgeous that I almost cried.

“You look beautiful, he wouldn’t be able to take his eyes off you this night!” Whispered Cherry who was also looking into the mirror.

“What?” I asked because it sounded like she said someone was not going to take his eyes off of me, I needed to make sure I was not hallucinating.

“Off of me, I meant Gerald”. She gave me a big smile and replied immediately.
