Mum ran into my room few minutes later, with concern written all over her face,
“hope you weren’t hard on him?” she curiously asked, while i picked my nose.
“the poor boy is in bad shape, looking very troubled and sad in the sitting room. Tell me, what did you say to him?” she inquired seriously.

“i only asked to see his daughter before deciding anything, but he suddenly grew very intense and annoying. Imagine the boldness” I complained to Mum, who calmly sat beside me, held my left hand and smiled at me.

“you should have been more understanding and diplomatic with your request. Go talk to him dear, I believe you guys can sort things out or are you changing your mind about him already?” She asked. I rolled my eyes and smiled at her.

“oh mum don’t ask me that question, but the truth is that i can’t help but feel for the child and her mother. I can’t imagine what he told the poor girl before doing the deed which got her pregnant” I explained.
“you are right my dear” she said with a nod, “You are always very considerate of other people’s feelings” she said softly. I smiled,

“but Mike just accused me of being selfish and insensitve” i murmured,
“oh please, go and settle with him jare” she stood up and dragged me to the sitting room, where Mike sat with a drawn face. I quietly sat on his laps, mum smiled and left us alone.

“i’m very sorry for being rude, i never intended to disrespect you nor hurt your feelings, but as your future wife it’s my duty to know everything about you and i believe i have every right to know your daughter and her mother, please don’t deny that to me, i beg of you” I pleaded calmly with all my heart. He looked away thoughfully, breathed deeply and stared into my eyes.
“alright your wish will be granted, you leave me with no choice than to make it happen, but i do have a very bad feeling about it” he said with a forced smile, while i heaved a sigh of relief.

“I will invite her to my apartment in town on saturday, but i will be here on friday evening to pick you up” He added.
“no dear, i’ll prefer you come on saturday morning so i can bring my school things along” i requested humbly.
“alright i will be here very early on saturday” he accepted with a dry smile.

“it wasn’t that hard after all, was it?” mum asked with a smile as soon as he left. I rolled my eyes and ran to the kitchen without answering her, praying silently that things work out between Mike and i, because with the direction things were heading, i really was a bit scared of my future with him.

Nervously, i waited for Saturday which slowly approached like a snail. I woke up that fateful day with a huge boil under my armpit.
Creepy isn’t it?
