chapter 36
Dedicated to Richie_Stuner_II
Lisha looked surprised to see Nikki in her room immediately she got out of the shower.
"When did you get in?"
"Just now," Nikki replied with a smile.
"Oh okay then," Lisha turned back to her tote bag that was placed on her bed.
"So, I heard you saying the bachelor's Eve is at AMERIGO resort few days ago," Nikki continued as she moved closer to her sister.
"Yeah, that's true," she replied before moving closer to her dressing mirror.
"The bridal shower is also at the same resort," Nikki announced and that grabbed Lisha's attention, and she turned back to her.
"Really?" She asked while packing her long hair.
"Yeah, so, I was thinking we should go together."
Lisha nodded, "Sure, why not? But what of Miracle?"
"I already dropped her at my parents place."
"Oh okay, so, are you ready?" Lisha questioned as she walked back to her bed to pick up her tote bag.
"Yeah, I'll just pick my bag."
"Meet me downstairs then," Lisha said before walking out of her room while Nikki went back to her room with a beautiful smile on her face.
For the past two weeks, she'd been on good terms with Lisha, and they hadn't had any disagreement at all, though Lisha still had suspicion because Nikki just changed overnight, to Lisha, it was as clear as crystal that Nikki had something up her sleeve, but she decided to play along.
Not quite long, Nikki got out of the house with her bag, then she joined Lisha in the car before they drove out of the house, the drive to AMERIGO resort was a silent one and Nikki had liked it, she didn't have time to start pretending again.
Immediately they got to the beach resort, Nikki went straight to the beach so far they were having the bridal shower at the beach while Lisha entered the resort.
"Hey," Lisha shouted as she barged into the room.
"Gosh! Lisha, what if I was naked?" Mark complained as he looked up from the bed.
"And so? What are you covering?" She smirked before walking over to Jimi who was seated on the couch.
"So, you didn't see me enter?" She questioned while eyeing him.
"Sorry about that but wait you're also dressed in a short?" Jimi asked while accessing her clothes, she was in a white shorts just like the other guys and a black T-shirt.
She shrugged, "Of course," then she sat at the edge of the bed and turned to Mark.
"Just tonight, you can't stay away from your wife-to -be, not like you guys won't see each other tomorrow oo," she accused.
Confusion was written all over Mark's face, "What do you mean?"
"Stop pretending, the two of you decided to come to this resort, I know you made Kemi come and that's because you want to sneak to her place in the midnight but maybe you've forgotten I'm here," she explained while Mark chuckled.
"Wait, Kemi is also here?" Jimi queried and Lisha turned to him.
"Like you don't know, you guys don't even know how to pretend at all," she snorted.
"Kemi didn't tell me, Mark, did she tell you?"
He shook his head, "Not at all but it's a good idea though," he ended it with a smirk and Lisha smacked his head.
"Lisha you need to stop this, I'll be a married man by tomorrow, you can't just keep smacking me in front of my wife," he said while rubbing his hand at the back of his head.
She brought out the water bottle from her bag and gulped down its full content before replying, "As if it's new to her, anyway, where are the others or did they ditch you?" She asked in a mocking tone.
"They're at the bar," Jimi replied.
"Oh, let's go and join them abi you want to do the party in your room?"
"We were waiting for you," Jimi replied.
"I'm here now," she stood up while dashing them a smile. The duo got up, and they all walked to the bar that was already blasting with music and shimmering lights.
While the other guys greeted Lisha, she only plastered a fake smile on her face so far she wasn't close with them. She pointed her fingers to her eyes and then back at Mark who was already dancing with other girls, apparently, his friends came with whores who were now all over the guys.
"Hey, won't you dance?" Jimi whispered into her ears after noticing she'd been sitting and looking at them ever since they got there.
"I feel weak," Lisha said gently as she tried to focus on others on the dance floor.
"What's wrong?" Jimi asked with concern laced in his tone as he noticed she was getting pale.
"I don't know, I think I have to go back to the room and rest," she said while trying to stand up.
Jimi held her hand, "Let me take you to the room," he offered, and she nodded.
Then they both headed towards the room but not without Jimi telling Mark.
"Are you sure you're okay?" He inquired as she rested her head on the pillow.
"Yeah, I will, you can leave now."
"No, I'll stay with you."
"I don't want to spoil the fun, nothing is wrong with me, whereas I can handle myself," she said with a forced grin.
"Are you sure?"
She nodded, and he edged his way out of the room but not without glancing at her and asking her if she would be okay.
"What's wrong with her?" Mark queried immediately Jimi walked into the bar.
"She's just weak."
"Maybe she stressed herself during the day."
Jimi shrugged before sitting on the high-backed chair while Mark went back to the dance floor. After Jimi ordered for a champagne, Nikki walked up to him dressed in a revealing bikini.
"Hey," she greeted while sitting on the other chair beside him.
He turned to her swiftly, "Hi, why aren't you with the girls?"
Her lips curved into a seductive smile, "The party hasn't started whereas I came here to get my jacket."
"In the bar?" He inquired while she shook her head.
"Nope," then she ordered for the champagne also while Jimi looked up at the TV.
"Cheers," Nikki offered with her enticing smile, and he clinked his champagne flute with hers. She smiled seductively at him while he turned back to the TV.
"Lisha isn't around here, where is she?"
"In the room," he replied without looking at her.
"Why?"
"She was feeling weak," he responded with his attention still focused on the TV while Nikki smiled to herself.
She looked away from him and transferred her focus to the TV, then she realized they were showing a scene where a guy was trying to harass a lady.
"You know Lisha is a rape victim?"
Jimi snapped his head towards her that instant, "What!"
Nikki dropped the champagne flute on the table and turned to him, "Why do you look surprised? Didn't she tell you?"
Jimi shook his head as he was still shocked to form any sentence.
"I thought you guys knew everything about each other, she actually got pregnant then and aborted it."
"What!" Jimi exclaimed.
"Well, there are a lot of things you don't know, she actually fell into depression after that, it was when she came out of the depression that she became this crazy girl," Nikki narrated while Jimi only stared at her wide in shock.
"I see there are a lot of things she's hiding from you," she said before taking a sip from her champagne while Jimi was still stupefied to talk or even think.
"I guess she didn't trust you enough to tell you but I can't blame her, she's gone through a lot, she…"
Jimi cut in, "That's enough!" Then he rose.
"Why are you standing?"
"I need to check on Lisha," he replied prepared to leave.
"What!" Her eyes widened, he glanced at her before taking his first step while Nikki quickly grabbed his hand.
"I thought you said she needed rest."
He glanced at her hand on his, she dropped his hand reluctantly though she desperately wanted to touch him.
"Yeah."
"Let her rest then," she said in a convincing manner hoping he won't leave.
"I have to go see her," and he left even before she could think of any response, her eyes trailed behind him.
Nikki smiled to herself as she gulped down the champagne in joy, both missions had been accomplished successfully but then what if the third mission hadn't been accomplished or...
She quickly sprawled to her feet and as she proceeded to leave, a guy grabbed her hand.
"Hey beautiful, mind dancing with me?" He asked with a smile Nikki found disgusting, she withdrew her hand from his quickly and dashed him a glare.
He moved closer to her and trailed his hand on her exposed body, " You look so..."
She hissed before pushing him away, he staggered, and she glared at him before walking away hurriedly.
Jimi opened the door quietly and as he walked into the room, what greeted him got him astounded, his eyes almost bulged out of its socket as anger welled inside him.
Okay, this is getting worse.
What do you think Jimi saw? Comment your thoughts.
Don't leave without clicking on the cute star.
