AN EMBARRASSING MOMENT

I am someone who does not like drama. Anything that puts me in the spotlight unintentionally are things I try as much as possible to avoid, but then there are things you can not just avoid and must come face to face with. Life can be dramatic at times and we just have to dance to the music. If we are shamed, well, it is what it is, we dance regardless, covering our hands in shame. The fact that I hardly get into these kinds of situations is something I am always grateful for, but hardly doesn’t mean totally. I can remember one that is very hard to forget.

When I think about it now, I just laugh it off. I was young and stupid then, still going to clubs with my friends and there was this girl I really liked and really wanted to dance with. Fortunately for me, the feelings were mutual and we started dancing, feeling ourselves only for her dad who happens to be a pastor to walk into the club and meet me dancing with his daughter. That was not even the embarrassing moment, the embarrassing moment was when he confronted me asking why I was taking advantage of a 13 year old.

She told me she was 16 and I was 17, She really looked big, and I could not have known she was only 13 years old. But that was only the beginning of the whole embarrassment. The main one came after he had left with her and I decided to drink to forget my sorrow. Long story short, that was the last time I visited a club in my life. I danced and did so much that I stunned everyone who knew me and even those who didn’t. The next day when my friends played me the video of the things I did, I could not even imagine I was the one doing those things.
