My Mom's Best Friend's Son

Visitors at lunch

Jackie POV.

Oh God!what have I really put my self into.I have not been okay since last night.. I don't know whether yo be annoyed or happy. I am really not okay since the kiss that I shared with Tony last evening.

Seriously I didn't get a drop of sleep the whole night. Am even afraid that maybe Tony's girl friend saw us.Am not ready to face some crazy girl pulling my hair over a guy.I have only seen these things on TV and I don't want them to be implicated on me.More so when the thing is not even right.

My mom only saw us dancing and that is not a big deal since our parents are the best of friends and therefore they expect us to equally be friends.Therefore the dance has nothing that it should worry me even..Poor mom,she does not know that her innocent daughter a few minutes later kissed the most handsome guy in town.

I really cannot make for any reason as to why Tony kissed me last night. I didn't say that am complaining because i enjoyed every bit of it but I only want to know why he did it.Why did he take my first kiss Am sure he knows very well that he was my first. He had known me for long though we don't speak much apart from does times when we were still young.

I decide that I should overcome everything and mind my own business and other things that are to be important to me.Don't lie that that kiss was not important.. My sub conscious asks me.I quickly get out of bed and get my towel so that I head for the bathroom After completing brushing my teeth, I jump into a cold bathe.I really need to refresh my brain before officially starting the day.

After having finished showering, I Dress in some dull big dress and tie my hair in a pony tail so that I head down.I seriously feel Hungry this morning.when I head down stairs towards the kitchen,am surprised that I smell food cooking my way...what ,as miracles are happening in my life so oftenly the last couple of hours.I can clearly smell fried eggs .it can't be ,my stomach begins grubbing in need of food.

I can say my Mon busy preparing break fast.I swear this is not my moms thing at all.I wonder what has gotten into her the last couple of hours. Many things are happening in my life ,the first was at attending my first party outside our house,the second was kissing Tony amidst so many people and then waking up in the morning and my mother has finished preparing breakfast...I honestly don't complain,will be happy when more good things happen in my life.

" good morning sweet heart"

Mom greets me when she sees me enter the kitchen. I swear the vibe she is using this morning is rare.she is all smiles.She sets a plate of fried eggs on the table for me as she makes my coffee. I really feel like a queen.I thank her.I think every one would love to be cared for.You really feel loved ..That is what exactly am facing.

"Eat as much as you want Darling, You need energy to escort me shopping" She says as she places the cup of coffee in front of me 

"You just shopped yesterday" I tell her perplexed. I don't know why she needs we go for shopping even today.With me more over.I have always remind home.

"Ooh we shall be having visitors, Natasha ,her husband and son" I nearly drop the cup of coy at the last part .Oh my God,how am I to face Tony when I actually kissed him last time.I could have may be rejected it .I wonder how many people face each other after such acts ...like after sex....pervet. My subconscious glares at me.

My mom looks at me confused but I some how manage to compose my self.

** 

We don't spend too much time for shopping since we have to prepare every thing so that our next door neighbours come in when we are through Throughout the cooking,my mind is so occupied and I am thinking about how awkward this lunch  is going to be with Tony present. Mom asks me several times if anytime is wrong and I decline each time telling her that am so fine.

It is finally the time ,the knock at the door shocks me from where am sited at the sofa pretending to be watching TV. I at first pretend that I have not heard bit when the door is knocked again,Mom tells me to go open it.I move to the door so slowly like am heading to my death bed.

When I open the door, their is Natasha and her husband all smiles holding a banquet of flowers. I at first think they came alone when I see him behind,his green eyes look directly into mine making me sweat all over.His lips smirk..wow.

"Won't you let us in" Natasha asks jokingly. I didn't know am lost in my own dream land with my Tony..wait ,did I call him my Tony .This is really ridiculous.

"Ooh.." I try to say out of shame as I give them space to enter. Mom welcomes  them as though she had taken a year without saying them.That is my mother for you.She is always joyous and many people like her for that.

We all take our sits and coincidentally or not,Tony sits just next to me.I have not talked to him from the time they arrived apart from that smirk or smile,I don't know that he gave me at the entrance. We all sit down and The parents begin talking about how the part was and guess what,us the kids are sitting just.I can feel the tension that is building up between us.

Our parents continue talking .I some how rise my head so that to steal  agaze at Tony but I find him already looking at me. My cheeks are now like tomatoes I think.I don't know if to turn way and look a way.I try to say some thing but am saved by our parents asking Tony how he thinks the party was .He turns his eyes away immediately.

"It was at first boring ..bit then it became so good at the end " he say the last part looking at me .

" And you,Jackie "Natasha asks out of the blue.

" okay"is all imagine to say.
