***Dinner Arena***
She said;
"Your boy is not looking bad at all, he looks like a grown-ass man, and you need to see how he was looking at me when he saw me, it was obvious he wasn't expecting to see me, and now he thought I am going with you guys, hahaha. But he is really too cute, I still think he is half-caste. hahahah, he was just looking so dumbfounded like he was not the one who asked for a date with her."
So she said, all these words kept me wondering, what did mom go and discuss about me with aunty Paula, what did they discuss? Have they known about us?
"Just look at my girl, she is already a big girl, she is going out on her first date, hmm... How time flies, it was just like yesterday that I had her in my hands crying, now look at her, already going out on a date."
"Mom! Im seventeen, im no longer that kid anymore, stop embarrassing me."
Cynthia said and both mom and aunty Paula flared into laughter.
God! when aunty Paula said this, I felt like hiding my head in the sand just like the ostrich. Well, all is well, whatever mom might have done in my back I was starting to see that it was going well, I can see how Cynthia kept blushing and staring at me. And at least now my mom and her mom know that we have a thing and they are ok with that, hmm... I think that to be a development.
"Ok, we have to go, so we can come home on time."
Mom said. We were to go in mom's car. Aha, did I mention that mom' car has arrived? Yeah, the car has arrived, but she couldn't use it to drive me to school because my school her work have a different route.
So, we all stood and walk to the car, aunty Paula escorted us to the car and waved us bye-bye, and left.
When we got to the place, I noticed that the place was definitely not a place for youngsters, though mom told me before now that it was a birthday party of a colleague of hers, so I was not surprised to see the caliber of people there. Mom helped to arrange a table for three on our behalf, now it happened that all the eyes in the place seemed to be channeled to our table.
Once we have settled down, mom left us to go and felicitate with the celebrant. Now it was just I and Cynthia that was left on the table. We sat there staring at each other and blushing. God! She is so cute, I'm so glad that she agreed to come out with me.
"You are very gorgeous baby, you are just so perfect, everything about you is so loving to me. I love your gown, I've waited so long tong to tell you how beautiful I think you are.
