Getting dressed without bumping into one of these walls was way more difficult than I thought as the walls seemed to be everywhere. First I had to find my way to the bathroom to clean up the mess which I was, and then find my way around my closet, none of which was a small feat.
"Fuck!" I cussed as I bumped into yet another wall on my way out. Why did I not notice before now that these walls are way too close to each other?
I couldn't tell how much time has passed since I received Julius' call or how long it took me to get ready. The alcohol I consumed was heavy on me, and clouded my head and vision.
I went through Julius' text once more, as I staggered down to the garage. The words were blurry and moved about each other, making it impossible to read at the moment. All thanks to the bottles of alcohol I consumed earlier.
All I could make out from the two lined text was, "Litt's Royal hotel. Heavily sedated."
With half opened eyes and a subconscious mind, I hit the road, and only the flashlights from other vehicles, and their honkings from time to time stole me from the grasp of my subconscious state and made me focus on the road.
I pulled over in front of a 5 star hotel, with the urge to sleep now stronger than ever. Only a continuous mention of Nicole's name pulled me out of the car.
Gaining entrance into the building was easy, my reputation did all the talking while I stood at the entrance, before the two security men, hopping from foot to foot to prevent me from falling.
"Good evening sir," one of the security men greeted with recognition. He must have known me but I didn't or couldn't tell at the moment. I could barely keep myself from falling right now.
He must have noticed my unsteadiness because he offered me assistance into the building, one which I accepted with gratitude.
He walked me to the hallway, and went back to his duty post, after describing the arena where the party was being held. From where I stood, I heard music playing, and I knew I was closer to finding Nicole than ever.
Nicole!
A bittersweet taste formed on my tongue as I called her name. It was hard to hide my excitement which increased with every step I took towards the party arena. For the first time in forever, I'd be doing what I've always dreamed - Raping Nicole.
Even though I had desired it all along, I could not have gone through with it, had Nicole not stubbornly refused to listen to my apologies, and accepted my proposal.
But she had walked out on me, and followed her stupid friend. Maybe I should do the same to her friend.
I stepped into the party hall, with my eyes darting about in search of Julius or any of his gang members but they were nowhere to be seen. I dipped my hand into my pants pocket in search of my phone. Calling him was the only option I was left with.
My phone was nowhere to be found also, it must have slipped from my loose grip back at home or inside the car.
"Fuck!" I screamed in a loud voice, drawing attention to myself from those around me.
"Sorry," I apologized, once I realized that most of the people whose attention I had drawn were ladies, and moved away from there.
I moved away from the spot, and went through one of the exits, with hopes of seeing Julius or any of his gang members but I didn't. They weren't in sight, in fact there was no trace of their presence in the party, and there was no phone with which I could contact him.
Did I not read a room number in Julius' text? I asked myself, racking my brain.
It was 201 or 210, and I couldn't recall if the text had said it was a room or a suite.
"Fuck!" I cussed not so loudly this time. To think that I was this close to having Nicole as much as I want, and now it is slipping away hurts like hell.
I wiped off perspiration which had now begun to form from my forehead, and headed for the hallway, in search of Nicole.
She is somewhere in one of these rooms or suites. All I have to do is look for her.
I Kick-started my search immediately, checking first the suites.
Suit 201 was locked, and it was the last suite in the hotel which left me with the rooms.
I hurried down the other side of the hotel, where the rooms are located, and headed straight for room 201.
Locked! I sighed, disappointedly, walking further down the hallway.
What if Nicole was not here at this party? It could be that the joke is on me while Julius and the rest of his notorious gang are back at home, probably laughing at me for taking their bait.
I got to the end of the hallway, and hesitated. What is the point? There's probably no Nicole in room 210 which was in the other hallway.
But I went nonetheless.
About six men of heavy build stood on guard in the hallway. I was certain they were members of Julius' gang, and I felt a shift in my mood.
I bowed slightly in acknowledgement, and headed for room 210, the same room they were guarding but a swift movement from all six men at the same stopped me, and prompted me to look more closely at them.
"Wai..wait wait." I said in panic once I saw six guns pointing at me.
I realized my mistake just then, and my disappointment returned with a much fuller force. None of the men was familiar, and whoever they were guarding must be very powerful.
I left the hallway in the same way I had come, disappointed, and again defeated. Not by Nicole this time but by Julius and his gang.
Fuck!
