“where are you girls coming from?” he curiously asked with a smile,

“my cousin took us out. You can’t imagine the special treat he gave us” Amara giggled, annoying him with her reply. The smile on his face instantly disappeared, he stared at me for some seconds before facing Amara.
“why are you so keen in destroying my relationship with your friend. I know you never liked me, but arn’t you taking the hatred too far by what you are doing?” he asked her angrily. Amara drew back with surprise, shrugged and scoffed.

“i don’t understand, please be more specific” she replied and rolled her eyes. I breathed deeply and stepped forward, standing between them.

“it’s okay, please let’s go inside, we can’t be discussing such subject on the road” i pleaded to Mike,
“it’s late already, i have to get going, moreover i’m boiling inside. Don’t let your friend decieve you” he replied bitterly, turned, entered his car and drove off.

I breathed deeply and closed my eyes,
“Lord i’m in your hands” i prayed.
“he is now accusing me of influencing you. I just wish it’s true” Amara hissed angrily. I shook my head and said nothing.

As days went by, my relationship with Mike continued to deteriorate, he kept making promises he couldn’t keep and kept giving one silly excuse after another concerning Stella’s continued stay in his apartment. I had no choice than to watch him carefully, and i felt no regret over the decision i made. I just couldn’t allow myself to be having relations with a guy who was living with another girl no matter the circumstance. To me Mike was just like a married man, and i feared with time he could get very close to his little daughter and perhaps with Stella, if all he told me concerning his battles with her actually were true.

My parents thought all was fine between us because I kept everything away from them, something i shouldn’t have done, but i still did out of love. Mike on the other hand felt i was slipping away from him because of Chike, he thought i really was having something strong with him. He thought i was lying and decieving him, without believing that Chike was only a friend to me.

Fate has a way of playing tricks on us and life itself is full of mysteries. Personally i felt Mike wasn’t really being honest with me concerning Stella’s continued presence in his apartment, while he felt i was slipping away from him because of Chike. The trust in our relationship was broken, and we all know that relationships are very much built on trust. I feared it was just a matter of time before things finally falls apart.

“will my fears eventually come true??”
