I felt like a dick after her words.
I didn't mean to hurt her or to raise any curiosity about the allegations. I just wanted her to know the truth, but it looks like the truth is always poisonous.
I grabbed her and placed her in my arms. she doesn't need to cry over Vin, I know he is a dick and he will always disrespect Dee.
"Am sorry, I didn't mean to hurt you," I said while rubbing her back gently.
She didn't say anything instead, she crept more into my embrace. This made me throb between my legs but I had to control myself.
After some minutes, she raised her head and looked at me, I raised my hand and gently wiped the tears out of her eyes.
"Thanks, Davids, I don't know what to do, I just can't keep up with him anymore. I just don't want him, Davids," she was crying her heart out.
I felt sad and at the same time excited a little. Daniella is now seeing that Vin is not good for him. She is trying to mature up.
"I am fed up Davids, am fed up with him," she kept repeating herself now and then. Her tears were now soaking my t-shirt and I feared they might go into my bandage.
I grabbed her and led her to the security room nearby to help her calm down. I hated her tears to glow do r a man who doesn't love her, a man who doesn't care for her.
"It's okay sweeties, don't cry okay," I said to her while wiping her nose and caressing her back gently. She kept sniffing and her tears couldn't just stop.
After a while, she kept quiet and she returned my handkerchief.
I looked at my watch and it was already practised time. I don't want her to be scolded, "Dee, I need you to go inside the practise, do your best for today and forget about him, just be yourself, I will take you home tonight,"
I know am making promises that I might not keep. Vin might end up grabbing her and taking her home by force. So I need to be more prepared and take her home, I need to beat Vin and take her home.
I helped her stand up and escorted her inside the hall. Everyone was there except for my mother and the other judges.
I let Daniella use the front door and I went to use the back door because Natalia might suspect something and she will act up.
I joined Damien upstairs. I avoided talking to the models. Natalia will be jumping at me any second. I was not prepared to face her today. I just wanted to focus on what I will be presenting during the fashion show.
Damien was busy making his playlist. Turns out the deejay won't be available so he hired deejay for the job. He needs to be good at his work. He has done this once and I believe he will pull it through.
My mother was risking everything but using new upcoming people into her project. That is why she is putting more effort into the models. She wants to make it look exquisite.
"I think to call me by my name should be number one, because that is when Lil max will be performing," I said to Damien while he was busy dragging and dropping the songs into the folders.
He accidentally list the song that he had picked from a certain filter because I distracted him and he cursed.
"Fuck Davids, has someone ever told you you are creepy?' He asked while looking at me.
"Thank God no, even Clara admits that I am amazing," I said while holding my hands on my chest.
We both laughed before he grabbed me for a hug.
"How have you been?" He asked while looking at me.
"Good, why are you eyeing me like that?" I asked him.
"I am trying to see where you are sick at but I can't see because you are all chubby and jovial as always," he said while taking a seat back to the laptop.
"Come on dude, I am you g better now," I respond while taking the seat next to him. "How was school?" I asked while pulling the chair closer to the table where he was seated.
"Some missed you, she had to interrupt my class just to ask for you," said Damien while focusing on his work.
I knew that was Natalia, she is the only one who will be coming to ask if am around. I thought I told her I was not around, why would she ask Damien about it.
"Must Natalia ask about me when am not around?" I asked Damien with an irritated look.
Damien looked at me with dismay written all over his face before letting gout a loud laugh making the models on the stage lift their heads and look at us.
"Sorry," he said and placed his hands on his mouth.
"Did I say something bad?" I asked plainly.
He looked at me then I saw him look at the models on the stage.
"Daniella was the one who came looking for you, she had red eyes, and her wrist had marks, I think something happened to her. The way she asked for you, it's like you were supposed to be there, she even demanded to know why you are kit in school and I had to explain to her, in the middle of Miss Tamima's class!"
My temper rose to 100 degrees and I was burning with rage. I knew something happened to Dee, it's either Vin slapped her or did something bad to her.
I wanted to say something but Damien interrupted me,
"Vin's photo with one of the models also got leaked," he said while looking at me with excitement in his face.
I didn't know whether the excitement was because of the pictures leaked or because he had successfully dropped all the music needed into their correct folders.
If the oh it's were leaked, then that is the inky way Daniella knew the truth and decided to comfort Vin but he, in turn, hit her because she was asking too much!
I looked at Daniella, today she is in the company of Brian, Brian whispered something into her ears and she busted out laughing. Throwing my looks that Natalia, she is busy in her phone, not interested in doing some practise the way Clara is asking one of the models to teach her.
Just like Natalia, Lady Boo is also in her phone, laughing and talking away in her phone.
Stretching my neck to look if Vin is also smiling, the seat was empty turns out he hasn't arrived. I just hope he doesn't arrive so that I can take Dee home tonight.
My mother and her other three guests graced the stage and the practice went on as usual. Dee was focusing on the stage and by the look of things, she didn't have any thoughts about Vin.
She was congratulated by the three guests for her good work. I closed silently from my seating point and Damien just eyes me with the looks of, " what is with you?"
Natalia was just Natalia, today she had a cleavage top. Her perfect boobs were almost popping out but the four judge's sitting there didn't thee jer anything.
In this practice, you wear what you want, as long as it's the colour that the judges want then they have no trouble. Some models even wore biker shots, some were in their briefs and sports bra.
The goal was to make every step as beautiful and glamourous as possible.
"Wow, we're you guys doing some practice for the duo walk?" I asked Damien just to irk him up.
He quickly shot her head towards the stage to admire his lady do her thing. He told up and clapped for her as she was winding up with her catwalk.
"Yes!" He cheered while throwing a first into the air.
"Wow, she got you spooked!" I said while laughing at him.
He turned around in his chair and looked at me, "I had to google, she asked me to take her through and every second I had I was teaching her how to do it, even during the breaks,"
I nodded my head and admired his dedication to his girl. I looked at Dee and she smiled at me secretly waiting for her turn.
Daniella was next with Brian, today she looked more comfortable around him, I don't need to fear anything because Brian knows how to make someone do what he wants with just a tap of a finger. I know if Dee has any problem with the duo walking he will make sure she gets all the steps right.
I don't know what effect they have on the other models, or maybe it's because they are the last Duo but they earned cheers and clapping from the other models and the four judges.
"Go girl, go bitch, go, girl, go bitch," the models kept cheering on them. This made me excited and I also joined them watching as Brian took step after step and Daniella gracefully matched his and their heels clicked with the floor.
"This is what I want!" I thought to myself.
