Betrayal - Season 2 - Episode 5

*continues*

I barely had returned to my room the following morning, when Amara knocked and entered with a very sad and tired look. She really looked that moment like a night worker who worked without rest all through the night.
She wearily fell on my bed with a sigh. I sat beside her, with both hands on my waist and stared curiously at her with surprise.
“it’s over between Chuks and i” she muttered, while i gasped in shock,
“what did you just say?” i heard myself ask
“my relationship with Chuks is over” she announced again, i just breathed deeply and kept quiet for few seconds.
“how? What exactly happened?” i calmly asked,

“i confronted him last night about his ties with a cult group, he tried denying it but when i continued with my questions, he barked at me almost hitting me in the process. I gave him a condition to tell me the truth or kiss our affair goodbye, yet he ignored me till this morning when i left the room” she explained unhappily, while I smiled and held her left hand.

Even though i really never supported her relationship with that boy, i knew my friend really do love him, and so i had to be cautious and neutral when advising her.

I looked at my wall clock which read 7:30AM, bit my lips and stared at my friend. I planned going to school that fateful day but with the look of things i knew i might skip lectures again.

“girlfriend are you very sure about your decision?, you are already into him which is a fact you can’t deny” i asked with a smile, but she kept quiet and pretended as if she didn’t hear my words.

Someone knocked on my door seconds later, which made me move my attention to my door. I waited extra two minutes before finally opening my door, where a nervous looking Chuks greeted me with a forced smile.
“is Amara with you?” he calmly asked with a searching look. At first I truly was at lost on what to reply him, but when i finally made up my mind to deny ever seeing her that morning, Amara appeared behind me and shouted at him.

“what are you doing here, leave me alone” she barked before shutting the door on his face. Instead of leaving, he surprised us by knocking again for almost an hour, and it really appeared as if he wasn’t ready to leave my door alone until it was opened.
I really was uncomfortable and a bit sad, because I already have missed lectures for that day and still trapped in my room all because i was standing by my friend.
“i think you should have a little chat with him, you never can tell what he wants to say to you” i finally whispered to Amara when i couldn’t endure his knock anymore. She tried to argue, but i gave her no chance, stood up and opened my door for Chuks who quickly rushed to her side.

I never believed nor dreamt that someone like Chuks could ever do such a thing for a girl,
“is that what true love really means or is he just trying to defend his pride??” was the question i keeping asking myself as i left them alone in my room to fetch a bucket of water downstairs…….
