Chapter 4
Later that day
Bonnie grabbed a book. It was her excuse.
Suzie : Where are you going ?
Bonnie : To read outside. I spotted a great place.
Suzie : Cool. Don't forget dinner time.
Bonnie : I still have an hour she left
She didn't like lying to her new friend but she didn't want to tell her either what was going on. Relationships between white and colored people were illegal. She shook her head. They weren't in any kind of relationship, were they ? She looked up and realized she was in front of the danceroom. Her feet walked there on their own. Kinda scary. She climbed the stairs and stopped dead tracks. He was already there and shirtless. He was standing with his back facing her and she could admire that it was tanned and well built. She bit her lip. She was just a woman after all ! Little did she know Kai noticed her because of the mirror. He felt flattered by the way she looked at him. The way he was feeling about her was mutual then.
Kai : Enjoying the show ?
Bonnie : she snapped out of it, her cheeks feeling hot Sorry.
Kai : Don't he buttoned up his shirt
Bonnie : she put her book on a piece of furniture Can we start ?
Kai : Yeah.
She closed the door so no one could see them.
Kai : Ok, so let's start with simple steps.
(Skipping)
They were sitting on the floor resting.
Bonnie : This is kind of intense.
Kai : Dancing is a sport.
Bonnie : I can see that now.
Kai : Still want to continue ?
Bonnie : Yeah, it's fun.
Kai : he smiled Told you.
Bonnie : Where did you learn all that ?
Kai : Well, when Care and I finished highschool we didn't know what to do.
She guessed ''Care'' was the blonde girl he was often with.
Kai : he kept going But one day, we came across a dance building. She said 'Hey, why don't we learn ?'. I admit I was more than skeptical but when we hit the first class I knew it was what I wanted to do.
Bonnie : You're living your dream.
Kai : Exactly. What about yours ?
Bonnie : My dream ?
Kai : You must have one.
Bonnie : I do but it's never gonna happen.
Kai : Mind to share ?
Bonnie : I want to be a teacher but college is too expensive. I was lucky enough to even finish highschool.
Kai : You're working as a maid since then ?
She nodded.
Kai : Oh.
Bonnie : I know exactly what my life will be like. Someday, I'll meet a guy, marry him, have his kids and keep working as a maid.
Kai : I see.
This life seemed so dull. Or maybe it was just the idea of her being with another man.
Bonnie : Just out of curiosity, what are you for Caroline ?
Kai : She's my friend. Why ?
Bonnie : I said it was curiosity.
Kai : Or maybe...
Bonnie : I have to go she got up See you tomorrow she left
He chuckled and shook his head. Oh Bonnie, you're the only one I have my eyes on, he thought.
