79 Beautiful souls (1/2)
Brianna came back to where Dwayne was standing and linked hands with him.....don't take whatever Anton do to you to heart, he means no harm, that's just how he plays, I guess that's how men bond, and believe me when I say he likes you cause he's a snub but he talks to you.
Thank you Mrs Bree, but I'm not offended, he just took me by surprise....I hope I won't get arrested for holding a married woman's hand.
Aiii don't worry, you are no threat to Jim, no offense but you can't compare to my muchacho, she said laughing.
Ok ma'am, Dwayne said as he saluted her...they both bust into laughter and walked into the furniture store.
After hours of shopping, they all sat at a pizza parlor in the mall, Sky ordered jollof rice and turkey from a restaurant, she sat in the café licking ice cream, waiting for her food.
She seized Anton and Bree's wallet so they wouldn't pay for the meal. She told them its her treat, since they all came here for her sweatpea.
What about Dwayne? Anton asked pouting, he still has his wallet.
Don't worry about Dwayne, he's a darling so he'll do just as I say. She walked to Dwayne and stood in front of him. Mr Teffa, you've been buying me food for sometime now, how about I treat you to a meal or pizza? She begged him with her eyes to say yes and he obliged.
Ok Ms Sky... I'll accept.
You can call me Sky in public, Ms Sky is too suspicious. Anton rolled his eyes as he drank from his orange juice.
Few minutes later, one of the mall attendant wheeled in a trolley filled with gifts.
The three of them didn't pay attention to the girl pushing the trolley at first, until she pushed it close to Sky and said....here you go ma'am.
Are we having a party? Anton asked
Who's birthday is it? Brianna asked
Wow. Dwayne said.
Be patient y'all, you find out who it's for eventually. Now please can we continue eating...this turkey is just calling me name. Yummy, she said rubbing her palms together, ignoring the stares from her friends.
Has she always been like this? I mean before the pregnancy. Dwayne whispered to Bree.
No. It was the opposite actually, she doesn't eat much, very selective and always pick her food. I think I like her now. If you had met her then, you'd think she was a model or on a diet.
Wow, Dwayne said as they both watched her.
Stop talking about my bestie, you two. Bree, aren't you forgetting something?
What is it handsome?
Dwayne rolled his eyes as Brianna called Anton handsome.
You love food, you even make sounds when you eat, your slogan is food is life. Sky is just like you now. I remember when you pregnant with Beverly, you are like a horse, you use.....
Before he could finish his sentence, Bree slapped him at the back of his head. shut up handsome, we didn't say anything bad about her and if you say one more thing...we are going to wash our dirty linen outside now.
What was I saying? Anton said smiling, he took Bree's hand and kissed it. My love, I meant to say you are beautiful and I love the way you eat.
Brianna smiled and held his cheeks...such a good boy she said to him smiling.
Dwayne watched the two of them and smiled, so Mr Anton can be like this with someone else apart from Sky? He likes Sky's sister...she's cool.
