I want to feel confident and happy although I'm shattered and hurt.
I honestly don't know how to start or what to start with. So I just let the alcohol take over.
I can feel it run through my veins.
My moves become and more violent when I hear Victor's words re-echo in my head...
I dance this way to try to shove his words to the back of my mind or better still block them out.
I have no idea what I am doing, but my body Is bending in ways I never knew it could.
I feel like I am possibly working on a hiplet.
Tears stream down my face as I dance. I'm dancing with anger and I am just trying to make myself forget what happened.
I can still feel the alcohol's presence strongly In my system.
Towards the end of the song, I throw a backflip and land on a split.
A stunt I never thought I could pull and know will never try when sober.
I stop dead in my tracks when I hear someone give a round of applause from the dark portion of the room.
I gulp as I had not imagined or thought anyone would be watching me during this display of madness and emotions through dance.
I remain in the spilt position waiting for the person to show him /herself.
My heartbeat intensifies as I anxiously wait to see who has just witnessed my display.
I have a sigh of relief as Nathaniel comes into the light.
He is still clapping and looking at me in utter disbelief.
I know I have to get up for courtesy's sake but the alcohol is taking over and wants me to remain on the floor. So I stay put.
He climbs onto the stage, walks up to me. Standing beside me and looking down at me ;
" you never told me you were such a good dancer." He says
" I never knew I was " I reply amidst pants as I try to steady my breathing.
" So was that a hiplet you were working on? "He asks
" I don't know I guess that's a question for the alcohol to answer " I reply lazily closing my eyes and feel the alcohol burn in my system.
It feels like a little candle has been lit in my abdomen and I love the fiery Sensation I get from it and the warmth is just another level of satisfaction.
"Do you still want to dance? " He questions.
"There's still enough energy in me for one more dance. " I reply as I open my eyes to look at him.
Our eyes meet and he doesn't break eye contact which just makes the whole situation a little awkward so I close my eyes back and he smiles. He walks towards the MP player and picks up my phone;
" what's your password? " he questions.
" Jaina " I reply.
no one knows Jaina is my password I haven't even told Faith.
The truth is, although I am fighting with Dina, I miss her company a lot.
Jaina was our code name. Formed by us when we were in Junior year one and I held onto it even though we are fighting.
That's why I used it as my password. Initially, I won't have told him that is my password but the alcohol is beginning to make me speak and that's just what I feared. Speaking irrationally. The alcohol has started pushing words out of my mouth.
I try my best to remain silent and only talk when I'm being spoken to.
" Jaina, hun? what's that? " he interrogates.
"It's the combination of mine and Dina's name." The alcohol answers for me again.
I have got to get a hold of myself else tonight might be a nasty Moment of Truth for me.
"I thought you guys are not on Talking terms." He is becoming too nosy and pesky. Something I would have addressed if I wasn't drunk.
He knows I am intoxicated and is drawing out as much as possible from me.
I would address that when I'm sober, but right now the alcohol has the upper hand so I just answer any question he asks me.
" Yeah we are not on talking terms but truth be told, I miss that bi*ch a hell lot. I really do miss her company and the good old times.
So I chose to keep the effing password as a memory. Just a random act" I reply with my eyes still shut.
The room falls silent and all I hear are his footsteps coming towards me. I Open my eyes to find him standing above me.
