Chapter Fourteen: It's Her You Wanted All Along, Wasn't It?
Damia arrived alone in casual attire while other girls showed up wearing skin tight dresses and other disturbing attire. Adverting her eyes to the ground, she went in, almost throwing up her dinner at the scent of alcohol.
Once inside, she searched the drunken faces for someone she knew. Chelsea's eyes caught hers from across the room and she waved, only to receive a smile and a quick look away. She continued wandering the house, accepting drinks and wondering why Koi invited her here.
Perhaps he's going to propose.. No, we're both too young for that.. And he knows I hate crowds... Maybe he invited me here to kill me! No, he wouldn't do that.. Would he? On and on her over reactive imagination rolled only to be immediately disqualified by her trust in him. When she finally talked herself into thinking he was late, Chelsea grabbed her hand on the way to the window.
"Dammy... I just saw Koi go upstairs with some other girl." Her heart shattered into a million pieces and she rushed to the steps, Chelsea close behind.
Unsure of which bedroom he could have gone in, Damia pressed her ear to a door. Nothing. When she did that three or four times, her heart melted, tears flooding as she heard Vivian's voice through the wood.
"KOI!" The one word from her mouth forced Damia to break down. She needed her Heroin, she didn't want the coddling. She wanted to die. Deal with her problems without actually dealing with them. Chelsea looked at her friends face and opened the door to reveal a compromising situation. Koi looked away as soon as he saw Damia, betrayal written over her face. Vivian's evil, manipulative eyes looked to Chelsea.
"Hey baby. Thanks for letting me have Koi. You can go away now." Chelsea stood still, grinding her teeth. Damia couldn't handle this, not right now. Her heart left her already. She turned and fled, tears blurring her vision. She made it outside when someone grabbed her hand and punched her.
"Damia! You bitch! You ruin everything! You ruined your mom's life, you ruined my life. You're absolutely worthless!" Said from the angry tears, Chelsea glared, her fury squirming out. "Just go kill yourself." More hits came her way as Chelsea stormed away, her anger slightly gone. Picking herself up, Damia turned to the house, her anxiety exploding.
"Fine then. Congratulations Chelsea. You get your wish." With that, she walked away.
