“so how far?” he anxiously asked,
“i havn’t been able to decide anything” i murmured with a fast pounding heart.
“c’mon don’t tell me that. Have you forgotten i gave you only two weeks to decide, why are you behaving like this?” he curiously asked.

“Mike i’ll give you an answer at the end of this semester, please allow me to focus on my studies, i can’t be thinking of your proposal when i have exams to prepare” i poured out.

“i really don’t know the kind of game you are playing, seriously i don’t” he complained.
“so what’s so hard for you to wait an extra month for me to decide?” i asked,
“because i don’t understand you and i fear i may end up killing my time for nothing” he replied.

“if you truly love me, you will be willing to take the risk” i spoke defiantly. He breathed deeply, grabbed my left hand and stared into my eyes.

“tell me the truth, what’s happening please?” he pleaded. My lips quivered, while my bright eyes grew dim under his manly grasp.

“but for one thing, i would have said yes this instant, and gone with you to the very end of the world” i confessed.
“but what is it, Cyndii?” he asked, “what is it, my darling?”
“i cannot leave him, Mike– I cannot leave Benjamin by this hour, he’s preparing for his degree exams please be considerate. Yes i’m with him, but it’s more of a friendship thing, because there is no sexual intercourse between us anymore, but you don’t have to believe me” i explained. “It is the only atonement i can offer him, i owe Benjamin this reparation for the evil i have done him and i must make it till he completes his degree exams, after which i will give you the answer you so much desire” i added.
He drew nearer and kissed my trembling lips “alright i understand” he murmured coldly.
“speak to me Mike, it’s hard, i know but tell me that i’m doing the right thing” i begged. He looked down and shook his head.
“you are cruelly doing the right thing” he murmured and switched on his car engine.
“i have to get going, i really can’t stand this anymore” he quietly added. I stared at him inquisitively but couldn’t say any word to him.

I quietly alighted from his car while he furiously drove away without even bothering to give me a goodbye smile.

It really was a very painful parting and i couldn’t help but wonder if he will ever return for me…
