The Untainted
In a far away club
Khalid sat with his group of friends. Most of their holiday are spent in the club and outing.
"You look lost and out of here Khalid". One of his friends said.
"He has been zooming out for a long time now and he won't admit he is missing his girl." Another said.
Sulaimon, one of his close friends was sitting at the last due to the feud between him and Khalid because of balkis issue.
Out of the blue, he saw that everyone gaze was directed at him, he stand up and leave the table to get a fresh air outside.
"Ah! This two, I wonder when they will resolve their issue. It's been a while now. They can't continue like this because of a lady. I don't even know why Sulaimon is acting up when it's not like he loves the girl" Someone said softly.
And this earned him a glare from Khalid. "Shut your mouth if you don't know what to say with it!" He said angrily and kick him under the table.
The guy nodded and make a gesture of his mouth zipped while the others laugh.
****************
Balkis walked out from one of the VIP rooms in the club staggeringly. Her steps unsteady and wobbly, everything she sees looks upside down to her.
Why did I come here?! All because of stupid questions out of curiosity and jealousy in me! See what they did to me. I didn't know the fruit drink was alcoholic.
They told me it had no alcohol!. If i didnt lie about going to the bathroom, who knows what they will do to me.
Even my dressing speaks different here. I shouldn't have come! I dont belong here! Oh my God! Balkis keeps lamenting as she tries to find her way out.
The place was dark even though its still mid evening. Little lights blink around the rooms and dancing floor. Though she met with the girls she called in a vip room.
She fought her dizziness and bypass someone only to fall suddenly. Her mind stopped working, expecting herself to hit the floor but an unexpected hand wrapped around her waist.
"Who are you?" She asked raising her eyes.
Lo and behold it was a very handsome and well carved face with eyes piercing into hers. She felt her mind froze and her thinking faculty left in daze.
The man cleared his throat. Snapping her out of her stupidity.
She struggled to leave his grip and he oblige. She takes a step back only to fall right back into his arms again, the man smiles at her and wraps his hand around her to keep her steady.
Don't worry, just tell me your address. I will take you home.
No!.....They cannot see me like this! Please, is there somewhere i can s.....
(Slump) her words stopped mid way as she doze off on his arm. Her head hanging mid air.
Hello. Hello. Lady... oh she's asleep, could have at least tell me your address before sleeping off.
He sniffs her. "Ehh, your drink is a high alcoholic drink. It's a fruit wine but the fruity tastes hide the alcohol from showing, tricking most people, making them believe its a fruit juice(Sighs). Its like you drink a whole bottle my lady". He muses to himself, looking at her make up free but beautiful face.
"Sir, please hand her over to us, we will take her home and make sure she's safe." One of his body guard said.
"Without knowing her address." He countered.
But sir, we can get.....
Shut up and lets go up...to my suit. Clear the floor, i don't want news about this tommorrow. I don't think she will like it with the way she dresses.
...and what is someone like her doing here? He said softly, looking at her face.
His body guards where stunned when they saw him holding a lady without pushing her away. And now seeing how he's caring for her reputation and even taking her to his private suite put them in disbelieve, a place he never take a lady to before. Anytime he has a woman with her, he always take them to another room. Are they dreaming?
"Are you all deaf?" His voice jolted them back to reality.
"Yes sir" they all chorus and started doing their tasks.
