*continues*

Chuks quickly composed himself, helped me to my feet and muttered some quick apologies. He really was very embarrassed, and avoided meeting my gaze out of shame.
Amara quickly overcame her shock, rushed to my balcony, grabbed a clean piece of rag and started scrubbing my room with it. Chuks joined her moments later, when he saw that i was alright, while i quickly carried my books which were neatly arranged on the floor and spread them out on my balcony to dry.

Truly the whole scene came as a shock and surprise to me, but it really was an accident so i blamed no one. Surprisingly Chuks and Amara worked harmoniously together like newly married couples as they scrubbed my room, their quarrels forgotten as if it never happened. I smiled in appreciation as i watched them, even though i still felt a little pain on my head.
“chuks really is a nice guy” i finally admitted to myself, because he displayed some attributes which i never knew was in him. “Sometimes casually reading a person dosen’t really tell us all we need to know, and most times we end up forming a very bad opinion about such person due to our casual observation” i reasoned with a sigh.

I quickly fried plantain which we all ate together minutes later, and i almost bursted into laughter as i watched chuks trying so hard to make Amara smile.
“please help me plead to your friend, she dosen’t understand how much i love her” he finally pleaded to me. I blushed and stared at Amara without knowing what to tell her,
“don’t give me that look cyndii, he should first tell me if he truly belongs to a cult group or not, if he really wants me” she fired back. I stared at Chuks with a shrug. He instantly looked down as if he was given a very difficult condition.
“will the truth change anything?” he asked seconds later,
“i don’t know” she replied haughtily,
“yes i do belong to a cult group” he muttered with a deep breathe.

A huge terrifying silence fell in my room as his confession registered into our head….
For the first time, i wished he had lied…
