Chapter 6 Chapter 6
Jojo
It was the day of my dinner with the Devon’s and my mother wanted to go out to get me a new dress and go to the hair salon for my hair. I wasn’t in the mood for any of it, I was still upset with the fact that Morne used me, he knew how important it was for me to keep my virginity and still he got me to give it to him. Every dress my mother was showing me I was like “I don’t like it.” Until she got fed up with me “You can’t not like anything in the stores Jojo.” “I don’t know why I should be dressed up; can’t I just wear one of the many dresses I have in my cupboard.” “No most definitely not, this is your introduction to the Devon family you need to look your best. Let’s go in at Chanel you always get something you like there.” “Whatever mom.” “Stop this attitude, Jojo.” “Yes mom.” We walked into Chanel something that would always have lifted my spirits in the past but today I was just not feeling it. My mom walked straight to a black ball gown. “Nope I’m not wearing a ball gown to a dinner.” “Jojo it’s not just any dinner.” “Yes, mom I know it’s my introduction to the Devon family.” I said it like she did. “Don’t mock me.” “I’m not but I’m not going to wear a ball gown.” I walked around the store and found a dress I actually liked it was black, low cut back and it showed cleavage in the front. I showed my mom the dress and she almost got a heart attack. “No absolutely not, you’ll look like a slut in that.” “Jeez mom I thought I will show them my whole body without them having to stirp me.”
I actually did like the dress and would have bought it if I was alone. “No, we need something that is respectable and elegant.” “This is elegant.” “For your generation probable but not respectable.” My mother walked to another black dress it was yet another ball gown but this one I’ll actually wear it was long a little bit shiny it still had a low back but there was like a scarf hanging at the back and the front was perfect, a V-neck that will still show some cleavage and a slit at the side that was a bit high, funny my mother didn’t think so. Yes, I had nice tits and like to have them on display as much as I can or am allowed. “What about this?” “That’s the first dress that’s actually something I can wear.” I said to my mom. “Thank the Lord. Now come you need shoes and a handbag to match that dress.” “Mom, I have more than enough.” I just wanted to go home but no my mother had other plans, we went to the shoes and found something I liked immediately, thank God, the handbags or clutches that was a bit different, I had most of them but my mother was insisting I have another one to go with the dress. I just gave up and told her to chose one. At least I knew whatever she chose I’ll like it because come on who doesn’t like a Chanel bag?
Eventually when we walked out of Chanel, I asked my mom “Can we go home now please I’m not in the mood for this today.” “Well, you need to get in the mood it’s the dinner tonight and you can’t go with this hair.” My mom touched my hair and let it go again. “There is nothing wrong with my hair mom.” “Well let me be the judge of that.” We walked into the salon where one of Lesley’s exes work ‘Oh great just what I needed.’ “Mrs. Wayne, she greeted my mom.” “Oh, hi Sandy how are you?” For some reason my mom liked her me on the other hand not so much. “Good thank you and you?” “I’m good.” “What can I help you with today?” “We actually here for Jojo, a color, cut and blow-dry please she is meeting her future in laws tonight.” Sandy looked at me with a sly smile on her face “Oh, is she?” “Yes, and she needs to look like the Belle of the ball.” “Off course Mrs. Wayne.” Sandy said as she took me to the back for them to wash my hair.
As soon as we were out of ear shot of my mom Sandy asked me “So the day has finally arrived?” “I’m not meeting him if that is what you are talking about.” “Then who?” Sandy asked. People always say hairdressers like gossip, if that was true or not I didn’t know what I did know was that this one did. “I’m meeting his parents and their people.” “Their people?” she asked “yes Sandy their people and no I have no idea what that means.” “Oh, you are touchy are you on your period?” she asked giving me an evil smile. “That is none of your business.” She turned around and said “That is if you get your period.” I’m sure I didn’t hear her correctly. “What?” I asked her as she walked away. “Oh nothing.” Fuck did Morne tell Lesley he took my virginity and did Lesley tell Sandy because if he did it will be on the front page of the news papers sooner than later. Is my whole world going to explode in my face? I laid back and let the lady wash my hair but my brain couldn’t stop turning, ‘did Morne tell anyone about what we did? I mean he admitted he used me, what is another lie to him.’ If my mother and father finds out I’m dead not to mention the Devon’s. I was closed to tears when the lady was done washing my hair, she took me to the front of the hair salon where someone else took over to dry my hair and start to color it. I didn’t understand why they wash your hair before they color it it didn’t make sense to me but everyone has their own way of doing things. My mom came to me “I’m going to go shopping while you are busy here let one of the drivers know when you are done.” “Okay mom.” Thank God she was leaving it was like she was keeping an eye on me today probable scared I’d run away and their whole life plan for me is down the drain but then on the other hand that still might happen it all depended on Sandra because I know I won’t get pregnant I had the morning after pill. Now everyone just need to keep their mouths shut.
