Day one of summer party was over . we all started preparing for day two were more and more people even came . there was my best friend on her bikini seated at edge of the pool with a glass of cold drinks on her hand sipping it gradually . i knew something was up with her that very moment , it was just like me knowing her like the back of my palms. I dropped whatever I was doing and went to her , before I got there she had already wiped her eyes and pretended nothing was wrong . I knew it and felt not to bother asking her what was wrong . so I asked her how the party was going ? she replied to me very well.. with joy and happiness of the party I pushed her into the pool and laughed , she was shocked and had no other choice than to smile back at me . we were having fun then all of a sudden a tall looking black handsome guy approached us where we are . Me thinking he was there for my best friend unknown to me he was actually there for me . my best friend came out of the pool whispered to me saying "Don't let this one slip" . I smiled and kissed her bye . the guy walked up to me asking me what I was doing here all alone with my best friend , I smiled and said we where just talking best friends stuff . he smiled , he smile was so charming and heart worming it was everything to me , I felt goose ball all over my body . he stretched for a glass of cold drinks and passed one to me . we talked and didn't even notice the party was over . he took out his phone and asked for my number which I did . he walked me home and left . I went home hoping my best friend would be asleep , unknown to me she was still awake wide as an owl . I sat down she looked at me for almost a minute then she spoke .
