Zainab and David: SENIOR II

"Mum I'm going to Sandra's. I'll be back tomorrow" Zainab yells as she grabs a bag from the closet by the door

"Okay darling but be back before lunch" Her mum shouts back

"Okay" she goes out and closes the door.
"Be quick Zain" Her friend shouts from her car in the drive way

"I'm coming" she runs down and jumps into the car
"So what's up now?" Sandra starts the engine

"We drive up to your house so I can get ready for the event there" Zainab puts on her seatbelt

"Gurl, I told you we can't go to that hellhole. If my mama finds out you are sneaking out to go to some fancy ball..."

"Gala" Zainab corrects

"Same thing"

"Not really"

"Whatever. My mama would have both our necks. Why didn't you just tell your mum?"

"My mum's all about the humble life. I want a big mansion with a hot super star husband and popularity. My mum doesn't even know David is a big basketball star. I can't tell her about the gala she'll flip and tell David off" Zainab huffs " where to now?"

"I think you should get ready in the bathroom of the venue" Sandra focuses on the road

"Girl I can't be changing in some crappy bathroom"

"Its intercontinental hotel, it's sure as hell not crappy"

"I'm gonna take this chance but if it is I'm gonna take out my frustration on you"

"Yeah yeah enough already. Just visualize how hot David would look in his tux" Sandra does a wolf's howl

"Hey I'm the only one allowed to howl at my man"
Zainab gives an offended look. Sandra gives her a ' are you serious ' look
"Okay he is gonna be smoking" Zainab smiles

"Yep! He's gonna be so hot. He'll be trending in fashion magazines. And guess what? You'll be at his side equally hot if not hotter in that red dress ooh wee. My goodness! I need to see the expression on his face when his eyes land on you. "

Zainab nervously smiles " I won't look too good"

"He'll be undressing you with his eyes. You better tell him to calm down when he pounces on you"

"I'm not ready for that. We aren't even dating"

"Yet" Sandra completes
"Chill and get ready to bask in glory tonight miss   David"

"Hey hey! Miss David? No just no"

***************

"Get in" Sandra pushes Zainab into the ladies at intercontinental hotel.
"Wow" she hears Zainab exclaim from inside.

20 minutes later and Zainab peeks her head out "Psst Psst"
The sound grabs Sandra's attention. "What? Come out you are gonna be late at this rate" she stands from the bench opposite the door.

"Well there is a situation right now" Zainab squeaks out

"What is it" Sandra opens the door " you are hot girl. Smoking I say"

"Hey focus on the situation" Zainab snaps her fingers

"Which is?"

"My make up brush fell.......... In the bin"

"So? Why didn't you just pick it up and wash it"

"I can't get my hands in there" Zainab says

"So who's gonna do it for you? Definitely not me. When you are done, meet me outside" Sandra walks out
