-MISOKUHLE BESS
I’ve attended the one class I had and had to go for last minute rugby practise and then go and get a hair cut and now I look all fresh and I’m happy.
“hop in”
I’m back on campus and I knew that she was done with her classes for the day
“you cut your hair”
she says getting in the car stunned to see the fresh cut
“yep and your hair is hanging loose today”
I point out to annoy her, she hits me playfully and we both laughed.
“and the hair cut?”
She asks and I shrug
“well such things one needs to clean up pretty well. Don’t wanna embarrass the family and taunt their name”
I joke, I always try and look clean for these things
“your family must be a big shot”
She says and I chuckle
“being a Bess is a blessing and a curse”
I say carelessly because in my big head I’m assuming she knows I’m a Bess
“did you just say you’re a Bess?”
She asks and I don’t miss the shock in her tone
“yeah. I thought you’d know by now”
I say
“I live under a rock. Sorry. What relation do you have to MJ Bess?”
I steal a glance at her with a raised eyebrow
“He’s my brother… how do you know him if you don’t know me?”
I ask her and she shrugs
“he’s a tutor at Yale?”
She confirms and I nod
“yeah… how do you know my brother again?”
I ask again not liking where this conversation is going
“a friend of mine studies there and they bumped into each other the other day”
She explains and I heave a sigh of relief
“oh…”
I say and she turns to me
“yeah. You just passed our building, where to?”
“to Beverly hills to find the perfect dress for you Buttercup”
I say carelessly focused on the road
