“Well I felt sleepy and pretended to be sleeping when we we’re on our way here…….just today for the whole of today, you made me find and have a reason to want to keep and have this baby when you promised me you wanted to be part of it’s growing up and here you’re giving up on a one day old affair…..well not just any affair but a beautiful affair between Melanie and Tobias why…Tobi why”

“Calm down Melanie, this isn’t the best way to solve this” Ofelia is still lost for words to even react

“Are you going to listen to my mother and give up on what we feel for ourselves just like that” she now turns to her mother
“Mum, you had no right to tell Tobi such nonsense….. you should be grateful and so thankful to this man that I am alive today all because of his selfless sacrifice, if you can’t see that well I see, this is part of growing up and healing, I know you’re my mother but if you really know what’s good for your daughter’s health, you will not put a stumbling block for us…..you shouldn’t have asked Tobi to stay away from me because it’s already too late, he’s now my boyfriend, and all thanks to you, I was able to realize I love him too, so yes, I went to see the counselor in the morning and that’s where I got to know I wanted to be with him, I went looking for him and found him…..he made me smile and had me feeling happy all day long” Ofelia still so shocked to talk now decides to leave the room so quietly but caught her sister celebrating this news outside ever she has been spying Mel just gave her……….back inside, Tobi is not Happy with how Mel handled everything
“You didn’t have to tell her we are already seeing each other Mel”
“Why?…. so she would run you out, and you never return”

“We could have found a way to meet without her noticing it”
“That means you still don’t know Ofelia…. I was only protecting this beautiful story of ours”

“I’m so sorry I created you more problems”
“That’s not true, Mum has to understand a pregnant woman also has feelings”
“I should get going now, we should talk more over the phone when I get home so take care”

“I love you Tobi…. drive home safe” she escorts him out, to the car and waits till when he leaves and then goes back to meet her mum who refused to talk to her, it’s only her aunt who was all smiles…………
