IT'S SAFER WITH ME

They got back to the showroom, Andre have no idea what she was thinking, and hope he won't do something he will regret.

"Can I ask some questions too?"

Arianna spoke to the show host instead Aliecia answered.

"What you think you asking the question will make you better at sex?"

She mocked her.

"Not at all, you are more experienced than me,I am not denying that fact, I mean it's written all over you".

She turned to the show host.

"May I?"

The show host secretly asked for the permission from Alecia.

"Go on".

"Mr Andre.. please answer this question sincerely the lie detector will verify that".

Andre nodded, hoping this will make a good turnout.

"Who is the woman you love even more than your first love".

"You"Andre answered, a bit confused.

"True"the lie detector announced.

"I don't get her name please"Arianna spoke out.

"Arianna"Andre said now more bold.

"True"the lie detector announced again.

"Who is one person you can't afford to lose no matter what happens".

"Arianna".

"True"the lie detector announced.

Aliecia folded her hands and forced a smile.

Arianna smiled back at her.

"Finally, who do you want to spend the rest of your life with?"

"Arianna".

"True"the lie detector announced.

Andre smiled.

"I guess that settles it, I have the ring, you have the breakfast bitch, you can't eat your cake and have it, you may have given him the best sex but he gave me my best sex, Andre is mine I won't let anyone get to him, the mic is loud enough"Arianna snapped into the mic and dropped the mic, her heart skipped with rage.

Surprisly, the audience stood up and applauded her.

The show host forced a smile and clapped.

Arianna smirked at her, enjoying the burning rage in those eyes.

The next day

Tianna rushed to the door after the doorbell ranged for the third time, she hasn't put everything in to their perfect position but she had to disengage for the moment.

She opened the door and found Arianna smiling broadly at her.

In her arms was a box of cake.

"Happy birthday to you annoying princess".

"Well thanks you ugly beauty".

Tianna replied and kissed her cheeks.

The two of them laughed and went inside the house.

Arianna looked around the room admiring the whole setup.

"The decorations are lovely, but you should have let me help out with it".

"It's just the two of us, we don't need much of that".

Tianna replied, she took the cake box from her and put it down on the dining table.

"I am going to cut it now"she stated, trying to control her car addiction.

Arianna was aware of it anyway so she didn't judge.

"Fine make a wish then".

Tianna said a dirt prayer and cut the cake before hungrily devouring a large portion with her hand.

"What a way to cut a birthday cake"Arianna commented, she cut a piece into her plate and returned to the couch.

"I watched the soulmates show and all I can say is I am sooo proud of you honey, did you see her face when everyone cheered for you ,she was so pale like a vampire's blood bank".Tianna said and joined her on the couch.

" I am proud of me too, Andre was so happy at the end, he warned me I couldn't let him get sad because of my stubbornness, I was also happy to find out his answers were genuine".

"Yeah that was a risk there my friend, what if he said Aliecia?"

"It doesn't matter".

"It sure does it's written all over your face Liar".

They both laughed.

"Well let's talk about who the real liar is, you...how can you hide it from me".

She spoke with such energy that made Tianna comfortable,she had guessed the possible situation Arianna was referring.

"What are you talking about.."

"About your little thing with Max".

Arianna snapped.

Tianna's eyes widened.

"Little thing what are you saying, I was drunk that day and I can't possibly remember anything".

"Really how do you know I was talking about tha_t day?"

Tianna almost choked on her own saliva.

"Because it's the only day I was....ugh! Fine! I am sorry I hid it from you it's just..i just don't think Max would want a third party to hear about it".

"We are best friends Tianna and Max is my good friend too, how can I possibly hurt you two".

Tianna stood up and turned around.

"Well, he loves you more than me so..."

"Does it matter? I love someone else and Max approves it"

Arianna replied softly getting up from the couch.

"Easy for you to say, you can't never understand how it hurts Arianna, Max don't see me as you, it's more embarrassing because I did almost all the work that night, I was like begging him to make love to me..".

"But Tianna..."

The doorbell interrupted her.

Arianna swallowed uneasily and went for the door, she looked through the peep hole and saw Max with a bouquet of flowers and a gift box.

She opened the door happily.

"Hello Max".

"Hy Arianna".

Max smiled at her and turned to Tianna.

"Happy birthday Tianna".

Tianna hugged him tightly overjoyed, Max forced a smile and gave her the flowers and the gift box.

Arianna saw how happy Tianna was, she felt for her friend, is she feeling threatened by my presence because of Max, maybe it's better to call off my friendship with Max.

I can't bear to see her thinking I am the reason behind her one sided love life.

She sighed softly. Max had refused to come earlier after their thing the other time, Arianna forced him to buy the flower, and gift Tianna something knowing it will make her even happier on her special day.

"Come join us Ari"

Tianna broke into her thoughts,waving at her from the dining.

Arianna blinked and forced a smile.

"What the hell you spacing out for huh?"

Tianna asked as soon as she joined them.

Arianna sighed softly.

"Aliecia, I wonder what she is planning next"she lied and sat down at the seat beside Tianna, usually she did prefer the one beside Max to give Tianna the whole space since it's her day.

"I think I know what she is up to".

"You do?"

Tianna and Arianna chorused , shooting him a curious look.

"Last Wednesday, The slut came to me and offered me money to help her deal with you..mi told her I can never do that ,she got the wrong guy, she even went ahead to mock me about giving up on us and letting you go, I told her as long as you are happy by chosing someone else over me,I am fulfilled, I love you and it doesn't change my love for you".

The room was as cold as ice and so quiet ,no one said a word.

Arianna finally spoke out.

"Really? Max you did that for me, Max I ...I don't know what to say".

"Well I do! Thanks Max, we appreciate"Tianna stated.

Max smiled at her then they clicked the glasses.

After they had the drinks , Tianna opened her gift, they took pictures and danced for a short time.

Arianna had planned to leave home soon, so that Max and Tianna could have some time to themselves.

But as soon as Arianna got up to leave Max stood and offered to take her home.
