Attitude meets Arrogance - Episode 37

 

Ciara's POV
I felt shattered by my dad's behaviour but I should get used to the fact that my elder sister will always be his favourite..

But Jordan going out of his way to make it work between daughter and father was the most kindest gesture I have ever seen.

Maybe he is not that bad...Maybe I misjudged him....

After taking hours off everything and focusing on what I do best at the fashion studio, I realized all I needed was comfort and a shoulder to lean on.

Yeah, my work kept me busy but my heart was still bleeding...I needed somebody to hug me and tell me it gets better with time....

I tiptoed in our room and there was Jordan dead asleep...Should I wake him for a hug???

No I shouldn't make it easy for him..Yes, he wanted to help me out but he also added salt to the injury. He needs to be taught a good lesson...

I pretended to be asleep and saw his eyes open busy staring at me or was it the red lingerie dress?? Who cares...

Then boom, he went to the washroom and I pretended I was falling off the couch and what I needed to happen, happened.

I was beside him, lying on his chest killing two birds with one stone..
One was teasing him and the other I got the comfort I was seeking...

Well!!!Well!!!Well!!! Jordan doesn't quit to amaze me..

Did he just give me his credit card to go shopping???? Yeah, he did...So listen ladies, a guy should never give you an excuse that he is broke.

If he wants to treat you like a queen, he will treat you like a queen . Its all about priorities..

Maybe it was guilt that was eating me up or the fact I have always being harsh with him..But he deserved it or did he???

It's said everytime someone is mean to you, he opens up a part of him that needs healing.

Why did I not think of that before???

I bought him a Rolex watch and just when I thought things could finally start working between us, there is that malnourished model trying to seduce him...

I felt jealousy rising like bile into my mouth...It was so bitter but I loved it....

I know I didn't have the right to because I am kind of a traitor but I also owed him.

. As long as he had a ring on his finger, I don't care if I got no  feelings for him he is my man...My Marcias.

Next time the b*tch will get more than slaps...I will shave her hair off...

Breath in Ciara!!!! I don't need to breath in or out all I need is a strong drink....

"Ciara, can we go out tonight????" I heard Sophie ask behind me...

God, why did you have to send her???

I begun walking up the stairs...

"Atleast give me a chance to show you I am more than what you think I am. I want us to get along...." She continued but I didn't care...

I slammed the door into my room and slumped on the couch...Suddenly the scene of Emma trying to seduce Jordan played in slow motion in my head...I could feel a headache crawling in my temples..

How could I love one and be jealous about the other??? Doesn't make sense...

I need to destress myself. Yeah I really need a break...

Funny thing, I disliked Sophie but I had her number....

>>Let's go out.
PS: Ciara

What I expected was a reply not her barging in my room..

"Do you prefer a dress or a short???"

"A knock knock maybe...." I tried to bring out something like a smile...

"Sorry sissy, I just got excited..So what will you wear???"

"I am good with a black dress..."

I turned around to get into the closet when I heard sobs behind me.

Ugh!!!What now with this spoilt brat???

Should I turn and ask what's wrong or act like nothing has happened???

No, I am not that heartless or am I???

Ciara just smile and act all girly...

"Are you okay????"

It's like she was waiting for me to ask that and start talking like a running tap...

"Victor dumped me..." She stammered and threw herself at me...I felt like my hands were paralysed and couldn't hug her back but atleast she made my T-shirt wet and that is something...

"Don't worry, you will find other Victors..."

"I only wanted him," She begun shaking me, "He said he is in love with that Clara model..."

Clara the model, sister now I am mad...

"Do you want us to do something that will make you feel better???"
She nodded...

"Let's teach her a lesson..."
"Is that not breaking the law????"

"You are a Marcias, there is nothing like breaking the law for you..."

I guess I might have given out the wrong advice...

"What do we do???" She was now curious...

"Beat her up...."
"You joking?????"
"You can't beat her up???"
"That's wrong...."

This b*tch is boring...

"Okay, I was even joking...we will just scare her..." I faked a smile but I really wanted to beat her up...She has ever spilled something  on my dresses before a fashion show and had me all stressed out looking for alternatives...

"Okay..."

"Go get dressed and then we will meet here in two hours time and go out partying..."
She smiled...

She is also not that bad after all. Ciara what wrong with you??? Off late you misjudging people...I slapped my forehead...

******
By eight we were ready and guess what??? Chloe and Mason were also coming....

"I will drive with Ciara...you two can go together????" Sophie suggested and for once I agreed...

"Ciara, are you sure you don't want to come with me??? Then Sophie and Chloe can go together..."

"I will pass brother in-law...I prefer going with Sophie..."

In the car, the atmosphere was tensed...It's like she wanted to say something but was scared...

Luckily, Broken-hearted by Beyonce was playing on the radio and we found ourselves singing ...She really had a golden voice..

"Do you hate me???" She asked in between our singing...
"Hate is a strong word, I just think you are a spoilt brat..."

"Ciara, I really want us to be friends...I have seen how cold you are towards me and it hurts. Give me a chance to prove that I can be a good friend..."

Why did she have to use the victim tone??? Now am compelled to giving her the benefit of the doubt..

"Let's see how it goes. But first we need to teach Clara a lesson..."
"Now we talking bestie..." We fist bumped and laughed evilly.

That was fast....

I could feel good vibes flow like a river, the moment we got into Bistro club...
What I love about the place is that  only celebrities and prominent people could come here.

Even before I took steps inside, I was already hijacked for some selfies and pep talk with some of the people I either know or have worked with...

After that Sophie walked me to the bar where Mason and Chloe were..

"I guess we should have another one shot..." Sophie stated after our first tequila shot..
"Okay, I can do like twenty right now..."

Each shot seemed like a better and better idea...

"Let's go dance bestie,"Sophie pulled me from my drink when she realized I was getting tipsy.

At the dance floor, our bodies moved to the rhythm of the music until we spotted Clara heading to the washroom...

"Sophie, let's get her right now..."
" Okay..."

When we walked in, she was busy doing a retouch of her makeup...

"Everyone out!!!!" I ordered, clapping my hands... and they all walked out of the washroom apart from her.

"It's good you didn't move a muscle because we need to talk..." I slammed the door shut...

"I don't think we have anything to talk with you about!!!" She rolled her eyes...

"Don't we???" Sophie turned her around in a giphy and slapped the rudeness out of her...

I was impressed so she can defend what is hers...Now I can consider her being my friend...

Clara raised her hand ready to slap Sophie back but I held it...

"Now listen to us, If you dont leave Victor alone you won't see what's coming...Do you get me????"

"And if I don't????"

"Then say goodbye to your miserable career. We just make one phone call through Jordan, your ex my husband and he would be glad to put you in your place..." I retorted...

"And I will make sure you never attend any event or gigs...You messed with the wrong squad Missy..." Sophie added, snapping on her face..

"Just because you...." I placed my finger on her lips cutting her off..
"Save your energy young girl, don't talk much....You need it to break up with Victor..."

We slammed the door open on our way out finding an angry mob of girls waiting but couldn't do nothing because they knew what am capable of...

"Sorry ladies...Clara was having a terrible stomach ache..." I smiled...

"Ciara, we make a very good team..." Sophie commented and I agreed. We were good out there...
"Yeah, let's see if we can be friends..."

When we got back to the bar, Jaxon was there girls all over him...My heart felt like it had been squeezed hard...What was he doing here??? I will be in hot mess if Jordan found out...

"How does it feel to see girls all over your man???" Chloe whispered behind me...

"It means he is attractive unlike yours who has to keep you company because no one wants you..." I replied and walked towards Jaxon...

"Hey, no one told me you are coming???"

"Ladies, that's enough.." He pulled away from them and walked close to me...

"Chloe told me, you guys were here and am performing tonight..."

What was she planning???

"Okay..."

I turned to walk back to the bar when he held my hand," Off late, I feel like you are avoiding me???"

"I have just been busy..."

"I have seen you and Jordan are now acting like couple goals on Instagram???"

"He is my husband, it's natural..." I twisted my wrist from his grip and walked to the dancefloor where Sophie was dancing like a gorilla on fire in an ant hill but who cared as long as she was having fun...

"Let's go on Instagram live..." Sophie suggested and I agreed, getting my phone from my purse...

While we were at it, Jaxon out of nowhere was standing so close to me. His nose rubbing my cheeks that my followers noticed...

>>Jaxon don't bite her cheek off.
>>Jordan come see what your brother is doing to your wife..
>>>Ciara shouldn't you be beside your husband???

Suddenly my phone was snatched from me...It was Jordan....

How do we get out of this one???

What do you think Jordan will do???
