Chapter 3Lisa was right. Things happen for a reason right? Well this must be one of the things. It’s true we have all been through a lot. The past 3 hours we drank while we talked our past. We all learnt about each other and we can’t just walk out and pretend we never met.
‘Yes...let’s do this...let’s make a pact...’
‘Ok...we can all be friends can’t we?’
‘Off course Natasha...and we are going to be the type of friends who help each other and have each other’s backs’
We formed a circle and held hands.
‘Ok...here we are 6 different people who are stuck in a room. We have learnt about each other’s past and we want to shape each other’s future. Together no one will do us wrong. We will be friends till the end. The bonds we are about to form will be as strong as lead and last till the end of time’
‘I can drink to that’ replied Lisa.
We raised our glasses once more and drank to the new bond we have formed.
‘As new friends we have something to do’
‘And what’s that Lisa?’ asked Rachel
‘Our very first task in helping each other out is Tyrese and once we done with that...you 2 need a new man each’
‘Oh yes...we are going to teach that bastard a lesson he will never forget’ Janae was eager to deal with him and so was I.
‘Well...what can we do? Natasha was scratching her head trying to think of something.
‘I GOT IT’ we all glanced at Rachelle who was jumping up and down.
‘Tell us’
We discussed the plan she came up and found it was bulletproof.
‘Oh my...this is gonna be such fun’ Rachel was very excited.
We heard banging on the door and a shuffling of keys. The door opened and the security man laughed as we rushed outside breathing the fresh air. It felt good to be outside.
‘Let’s all celebrate today’
‘Yeah the forming of friendship deserves Champaign and wine and it is perfect to put Rachelle’s plan in action’
We agreed to meet at a club at 9pm and then we went our separate ways. As we went to our homes I couldn’t help but smile at the heavens. 6 strangers were united today and none of us really knew why but we knew that this friendship we formed would last a lifetime. Being someone who found it hard to make friends I was happy and I was happy for Rachel too because she needed this. After years of loneliness she could feel smile. Together we can help each other overcome anything. All of us...no more sad times alone.
Tears filled my eyes as I drove home to face Tyrese. I couldn’t believe that for the past 6 months he had been playing me. We had been making plans for a wedding at the same time he was with Kay. I began to think there might be others. But with the plan we just made...he wouldn’t do it again. Not to me anyway.
‘Thank you God for my new friends’
As soon as I got home I hopped filled the tub and hopped in for an hour to relax my stressed out muscles. Tonight was going to be a good night and I wanted to look and feel my best. I had already laid out my white ruffled blouse and some super tight mini skirt. My Gucci heels would compliment my look.
I got dressed after an hour and waited for Lisa to come pick me up. What fun we were going to get up to tonight!
