Chapter 7 Seven

Kelvin McSmith and some of his friends had been at the club for few hours. Just drinking and hooking up with the girls. They were at the VVIP section.

"What about that girl?" Shane, Kelvin's best friend asked. He had been trying to hook Kelvin up with one of the girls since their arrival "She is hot, isn't she?"

"Yeah, She is but she isn't who I want right now."

"I'm done trying to hook you up with one of the girls." Shane said a little bit irritatedly "Get a girl yourself."

Kelvin lifted up his wineglass and was about to drink out of it when he spotted the girl that he had been thinking about for the past week walking angrily out of the club. Even with all the make over and everything, she still looked the same to him.

"What is she doing here?" He thought.

He instantly dropped the wineglass and got out of his seat. "I'm coming." he shouted as he walked away.

"Where exactly are you going to?" Shane asked but Kelvin didn't reply.

Kelvin fixed his eyes on Alisha the whole time in order not to lose her. And it took him some time to realize that someone was following her without her knowledge. And when he saw this, he sped up.

Zhang leaned closer to Alisha and was about to kiss her when a voice said behind him.

"Let the girl go while I'm asking nicely."

Zhang angrily turned around to see who the intruder was.

"And who the hell are you?" He asked

"I should be the one asking you that question." Kelvin replied. "Who are you?"

"I'm her boyfriend." Zhang replied.

Kelvin majestically moved towards them and looked straight into Alisha's hazel eyes.

"Are you okay?" He asked.

Alisha was still finding it hard to believe that the guy standing in front of her was Kelvin because she hadn't been expecting him here.

"Yes, I am." she replied.

"Did he touch you?" Kelvin asked.

"No." Alisha shook her head.

"Do you know who he is?" Kelvin asked.

Alisha shook her head numerous times before replying. "No, I don't."

"What... what are you saying, Alisha?" Zhang asked angrily.

"I don't know who you are." Alisha said.

"She doesn't know who you're" Kelvin said to Zhang before taking her hand into his.

Zhang who was still finding it hard to believe that Alisha of all people had denied him in front of a stranger angrily jerked their hands out of each others and faced Kelvin man to man.

"Look man, I'm going to let it go today but the next time you try this shit with me, I'm going to kill you. This girl is my girlfriend and you should stay away from her and our relationship."

And after saying all this, he grabbed Alisha's hand and started walking away but on his fourth step, Alisha jerked her hand out of his and said "I don't know who you're."

"Alisha." he called while Alisha faced Kelvin and said "Kelvin, are you ready to go?"

"Of course, baby." Kelvin replied enthusiastically.

Alisha walked away from a dumbfounded Zhang to an happy Kelvin. But they had only taken few steps when Zhang came back to his senses. He angrily ran towards Kelvin and punched him in the face as he screamed "She is my girl!"

When this happened, Alisha had been expecting Kelvin to groan out in pain but to her surprise something else had happened because the next second, Kelvin was no longer by her side.

He was now standing in front of Zhang who had raised up his hand for another attack but before his punch could land on Kelvin's face, Kelvin had grabbed his fist with his left hand and used his right hand to raise him up in the air for some seconds before slamming him to the ground.

Zhang screamed out in pain while Kelvin looked down at him with nothing but disgust before saying. "If you love yourself, stay away from her."

Alisha's eyes became as big as saucers and her mouth formed a big 'O'. She couldn't believe what was happening in front of her eyes. Because within few seconds, the Kelvin that she knew was gone and had been replaced by another Kelvin who was surrounded by a deadly aura.

"Are you ready to go?" Kelvin voice broke into her thought.

"Y... ye...yes" she stuttered before looking at his face. He was now smiling back at her.

That isn't possible. She thought. How can someone be scary this second and be smiling the next second.

"Where do you want to go?" Kelvin asked.

"Home." Alisha replied before turning back to look at Zhang that was slowly sitting up.

"He deserves that, didn't he?" Kelvin asked.

"Yeah" Alisha lied. Even though she was mad at Zhang, she was still in love with him and the last she wanted was for Zhang to be in pain. "What are you doing here?"

"I and my friends comes here every Fridays"

"Oh...oh" she nodded as she digested the information.

"Their girls are good" Kelvin said but regretted saying that instantly.

"Uh?" Alisha couldn't believe what she just heard.

"I mean I love partying here."

"Okay"

When they got to where Kelvin's car was, Kelvin majestically walked to the passenger's side and opened the door for Alisha, who said 'thank you' and was about to enter the car when something came into her mind.

"Oh!" she gasped.

"Hope no problem?" Kelvin's asked worriedly.

"My friend."

"Your friend?"

"Yeah. She is still inside and she will soon be looking for me."

"Call her. Let her know that you're on your way home." Kelvin suggested.

"Oh, that's true" Alisha said before looking down at her hands that were holding two purses. Her face dropped as she said "I can't."

"Why?"

"Her phone is with me. It's inside her purse which she handed to me when she was going to the restroom."

"Okay then, let's go back and look for her."

Alisha's heart beat faster when she heard this. She thought about what just transpired between her, Zhang and Kelvin for some seconds before imagining coming across Piaf and Zhang making out in front of her.

"I can't" she said without her realizing that she had said it out until Kelvin asked "Why?"

"What?" She asked confusedly.

"You said 'you can't' and I asked 'why"

"Because...I just can't"

"So, what do you want us to do?"

"You said that you're here with your friends right?"

"Yes." Kelvin replied and a curious frown creased his forehead.

"Can't one of them help me look for her?"

Kelvin smiled unbelievably before saying "201 club is not a small club. It's very big. There's no way they can find her even if they tried."

"She is someone that they will find easily. She is Miranda Rivera"

"Miranda Rivera? Who is that?"

Alisha was disappointedly by the fact that Kelvin didn't know who her friend was but she shrugged it off, brought out Mindy's phone and showed Kelvin one of the unedited pictures that they had taken on that night. "This is her and this is what she is putting on."

"Okay. I will call a friend of mine and send him that picture."

"Thank you." Alisha's said.

"You're welcome."
