I went stiff. It was like she was trying to communicate something to Michael through her eyes; it wouldn't even take a blind man much to feel the tension between two of them.
I waited there silently trying to understand what was going on as she hadn't even given me a glance once she started staring at my man. Yes my man, I am that possessive.
Michael finally cleared his throat and said;
"Yes Nessa, I'm engaged about to get married"
"Congratulations" you could see her smile was forced as if the word left a bitter taste in her mouth.
"Je pensais que nous allions nous marier" (I thought we were going to get married)
She said again rubbing his arm in an annoying motion
Who does this bitch think she is speaking French to my man like I wouldn't understand and rubbing him like she was about to eat him. That's my man sis.
"Vous n'êtes pas celui qui porte la bague de fiançailles maintenant, n'est-ce pas?" (You are not the one wearing the engagement ring now, are you?) I replied her equally in French flashing her the ring that sat comfortably on my finger.
She turned to look at me her face showing shock before she masked it up with a fake smile. She probably thought I couldn't understand the language.
Michael also looked at me in surprise. I guess he didn't know I was capable of blasting out like that but well my man is my man and I'm not sharing sis.
She focused her attention back on him and smiled sadly before moving in to peck him but he moved his face last minute and the peck landed on his cheek.
I was beyond cross now so I pulled his face down and kissed him right there in front of her.
"Incase you didn't get the memo Nessa, this is our engagement party not yours and this is my man again not yours. I'd appreciate it if you respect that fact and keep your hands to yourself" I said all these trying my very best not to strangle her.
"You heard my wife Vanessa. I'm a married man. We've been over a long time ago" Michael said while entwining our hands together and walking off. I smiled feeling fulfilled and like a bad bitch that I am.
"I'm sorry for not telling you about her princess. We were never anything serious just casual flings in Paris" Michael apologized.
"It's fine babe, it's your past. I can't hold that over you besides you handled the situation perfectly Mr husband" I replied smiling.
"I think you were the one that gave her the bad ass reply Mrs wife"
I laughed heartily before the sound of a spoon hitting a glass sounded.
Everyone's attention was focused on Rafael and Olivia.
"Good evening everyone. As you all know, this party was thrown to celebrate the engagement of my son to his lovely wife-to-be; Charlotte."
Everybody started clapping and Olivia started talking;
"It's been a pleasure seeing Michael relate with her. He smiles more and he's so free now. I would gladly say that Charlotte has changed him in a good way and knowing Charlotte, she's sweet and cultured perfect for my baby boy. I would say they are a match made in Heaven. I'm inviting both of them now to say a little something before we have our toast".
We both walked towards the makeshift stage and Michael turned to me before making his speech.
"I can't believe that I have someone like you as a lover. When I first saw you I couldn't believe that I could have you and when I did I couldn't stop praying that you would accept my proposal. To be honest when you got angry at me thinking that I was cheating I wondered if you would ever say yes to me but you did and now we are here celebrating our engagement. To be honest if not for my parents, I wouldn't mind us getting married tomorrow just so we can finally seal the deal. I love you so much my princess and I call you that because you are a dream come true for me; you made my life a fairytale and I want nothing more than to spend the rest of my life with you".
I was tearing up again but before that could happen, he smashed his lips into mine again. Honestly I can never get used to that feeling. I poured all my emotions inside that kiss. For once I so sure of something and that was getting married to Michael.
We pulled apart amidst clapping and screaming. Everyone was happy for us and I was happy for myself.
Olivia came back on with a toast to our happiness and the evening ended with drinking and dancing.
It was a fun night and we received pre-wedding gifts from his cousins. The night was far spent and all I wanted was just to cuddle up with my man but as you know, we ended up doing more than that.
The end.......

Don't beat me up o, we have I think like 2 to 3 chapters to go and we'll be done...such a long journey.
Who enjoyed seeing Charlotte going all caveman(woman) on Vanessa. I do love a protective lady but is Michael not so cute?
My Charlotte is a fighter🤭

If you have an available guy for me just tell me biko...send their numbers to me. Note: the guy must be tall o at least from 5"9 and above and must be handsome...nobody is ugly but emmm I need guys that majority can attest to his looks.
I don't do colours sha but I would appreciate a dark skin guy- not too dark not too fair; just be in the middle like milk chocolate.
