Chapter 133 Longing Kiss

Chapter 133 Longing Kiss
MIA

"Finally, we are here," Brandy said, making me smile as I looked around the place filled with people. 

There are tables set but people are not seated yet but moving around and chatting with one another while having champagne. 

Like before, it is a mixture of black and white people dressed in gorgeous attire. 

It is almost like it is not just an award night but something more. 

We stood at the side staring at the beautiful place and people. A waiter walked towards us and we picked a glass each. 

"Thank you." Brandy sang as we took a sip. 

"Hmm, seems like we are the best dressed here. Don't you think?" Brandy asked, making me chuckle. 

Our dresses are beautiful. 

Brandy is an insane fashion queen. I feel like she is the most cherished among the others. 

Marcel let her go shopping almost every day. 

Earlier today, she said I would be coming with her to an award night. Her cousin is one of the nominees so she is here to cheer him on if he wins. 

Well, she doesn't care whether he wins or not. She is definitely going to cheer him on either way. 

I got myself a long beautiful and shiny red dress, with a long V-line at the back and a slit at my left leg, and red heels. 

My hair is tied up in a very neat bun and I have a slight smoky makeup on. 

Brandy is dressed in a long shiny green dress, almost similar to mine but she has slits on both sides. Her curly hair is tied in a pony and she has similar makeup to mine. 

She is gorgeous. No wonder Marcel treats her better than others. 

Smiling, I moved my glass to my lips when....

"Damn, isn't that Imani?" Brandy asked taking my attention. 

She is staring in a direction. 

I followed her gaze and I saw Imani chatting with two women. 

I lowered my glass as I stared at her. 

"She looks good," Brandy said. 

Wait, if Imani is here, and this is an award night and Brandy's cousin is a rapper, then.....

I looked around and there....

My heart raced.

I spotted Big Kai. 

He is already staring at me. 

Oh, God. 

I moved my eyes away sipping my drink as all I said to him that day came back to haunt me again for the first time since noon. 

I have been depressed since that day. 

Regret and pain almost swallowed me up. 

Brandy brought me here to cheer me up but look at me now. 

In front of Big Kai. 

God knows I didn't mean all I said to him. 

Hell, I was excited he came to fight and get me back. 

I thought he wouldn't make any effort. 

The minute I walked out the door and saw him with his men and he was about to shoot Marcel, I almost ran to him and hugged him. 

But I had to make him leave. 

I don't want to imagine the look on his face when Imani shows him those ugly pictures. 

It is definitely going to kill me. 

I moved my eyes to him again. 

He is still staring at me but this time, sipping his champagne. 

God, he looks good in attire. 

And his new dreads. 

I noticed them that night. 

I missed him so much. 

I miss the kiss. 

The sex. 

His tongue. 

Everything! 

I get wet dreams about him when I sleep. 

But why is he standing there and staring at me? Why doesn't he want to come over here? 

Cause a scene or something? 

I looked away from him, gulping my drink. 

"You know Imani was my senior back in high school," Brandy said, making me look at her. 

"What?" 

She nodded.

"Really?" 

"Yeah. She was a bitch." 

You don't have to tell me twice. 

"Tell me about it," I said, attempting to take another sip but recalled it was empty. 

I lowered the glass. 

"That bitch would make you want to kill yourself." 

I hummed slightly. 

"I should go speak to her." 

"Huh?" 

"Wait here," she said, walking past before I could say anything. 

I heaved a sigh as I watched her getting close to Imani. 

"Champagne, ma'am." A waitress caught my attention. 

I picked up the glass and smiled. 

"Thank you," I said, taking a sip as the waitress walked past. 

I moved my eyes to Big Kai again. 

He is still staring at me. 

I scoffed internally. 

I love the way you stare but why are you still standing there, huh? 

Come over here. 

Next, some people walked towards him, taking his attention. 

I averted my eyes, sipping my drink. 

Sighing, I looked around for the restroom. 

My eyes landed on a huge entry with the tag, Restroom at the top of it. 

I gulped my entire drink and I headed towards the restroom area. I placed the empty glass on the tray held by a passing waiter. 

I walked along the hallway, feeling my bladder picking up. 

Wow. Just wow. 

What did I take? One and a half glasses of champagne? 

That's not enough to make my bladder desperate. 

I got to the girls' restroom and entered. 

I walked towards the counter with numerous washing basins with taps and a huge mirror above them. 

I stared at my dress momentarily before heading into one of the toilets. I did my business, fixed my dress, flushed, and headed out. 

I headed towards the mirror area. I washed my hands while staring at myself in the mirror. 

My makeup is still good. 

I am instantly reminded of the time in a restroom like this in Big Kai's company. 

That was the second time he made his abnormal advances towards me. 

I was beyond stunned and terrified. 

He said he would fuck me. 

He wanted a date to do it. 

I was terrified. 

All I wanted was to flee from his lustful hands. 

Now......

I smiled, feeling my heart flutter. 

I would let him take me now if he asks me for a date. 

I closed my eyes, biting my lips. 

God, I miss him so much. 

I opened my eyes and lowered my gaze as my heart tightened. 

Damn you, Imani. 

Heartless Bitch. 

I shook my hands and walked towards the dryer. I dried up my hands and was about to walk out when the door opened, revealing HIM. 

My heart picked up instantly. 

"Kai......." 

He grabbed me and crashed his lips on mine. 

My brain. 

Body. 

Soul. 

The universe. 

Everything aligned as fireworks filled the air. 

My heart danced happily as he kissed me like he would die tomorrow. 

I couldn't help but kiss him back, wrapping my hands around his neck as we kissed. 

And kissed. 

And kissed. 

Passionately. 

Sweetly. 

Beautifully. 

His hands held my waist as we kept exploring each other's lips. 

No evidence better to tell that we both missed each other. 

His hands moved on my waist, aiming down. 

He wants to pick me up. He always does that. 

I want him to. 

We could make love right here, I don't mind. 

God, I want everything that has to do with him. 

Everything! 

Imani's smirk hit me. 

His mother was in a pool of her blood. 

My heart went cold. 

The pictures. 

I moved away from him instantly, turning towards the mirror. 

I worked on catching my breath as my racing heart continued. 

I rested my hands on the counter as his mother's blood filled my head. 

"Shawty." 

I closed my eyes, feeling my heart ache. 

"Baby, talk to me, please. I'm fucking going crazy. What you doing to us?" 

I felt tears coming as I lowered my gaze. 

"What the fuck is going on?" 

"I can't do this," I said. 

"What?" 

I looked at the mirror, staring at him through it. 

"I can't do this anymore, Kai. Please leave me alone." 

He walked towards me and turned me around. 

Those eyes rested on mine, adding to my frustration. 

"What's wrong?" he asked, caressing my bare arms with his warm hands. 

I want those hands touching the rest of my body too. 

"Tell me what I did wrong." 

You didn't do anything wrong. 

"Tell me and I will make amends. I fucking promise you, shawty." 

Tears approached faster. 

"I will do anything for you. You ma life, girl. Don't push me away. " 

I looked away as my heart tightened. 

He cupped my cheek, turning my face to him. 

"Is it the training?" 

I furrowed my brows. 

"If you don't like it it is fine. I'mma hire a thousand bodyguards to protect you wherever you go. I got the fucking funds." 

"No it is not the training." 

"Then what is it?" 

I pulled down his hand gently and turned back to the mirror. 

"Trust me, girl, I have tried all I could to figure out what I did." 

I lowered my gaze. 

"But I got nothing. The training was the last thing we were doing before I left for the hood." 

I swallowed as I recalled that ugly day. 

"We were okay then. Hell, we talked about having great sex when I get back." 

A tear rolled down my face. I wiped it off instantly. 

"I got back and I ....." He paused. 

I closed my eyes. 

"I met my mother's dead body." 

I clenched my knuckles as my heart tightened. 

"And your absence," he added. 

I let out a sigh. 

"Did you know my mother died?" 

I swallowed as that day replayed in my head. 

"Marcel must have told you right? The news flew fast." 

I raised my head and stared at him through the mirror. 

"I am sorry about your mother." 

He nodded.

I lowered my gaze. 

"She was fucking killed in my house."

I froze. 

"In ma fucking kitchen." 

Terror washed over me as I looked at him. 

That look I was avoiding was evident. My heart pounded violently. 

"Do you know who did it?" 

My legs weakened. 

"You wouldn't believe it if I told you but I saw evidence." 

God, Imani, we had a deal. 

"Imani showed it to me and I was devastated that I didn't get the chance to kill......"

"Kai, wait." I blurted, turning to him. "It is not what you think. Imani, she...." I paused as something filled my head. 

"Wait, what did you say just now?" I asked. 

"Imani showed the video to me and I was devastated that I didn't get the chance to kill her myself." 

I furrowed my brows. 

"Kill who?" 

"Naomi." 

I froze. 

"Na....Naomi?"
