Betrayal - Season 3 - Episode 21

*continues*

2pm, Monday {two days later}
“my dear i think it’s time you finally end everything with Mike. That guy is something else, he wants two women at the same time. You can choose to ignore my advice until it becomes too late. You are slowing using up your luck, mark my words” Amara seriously said after i narrated all that transpired between Mike, my parents and i over the weekend. I breathed deeply and stared at her, saying nothing.

“i know you won’t say anything to what i just said, anyway it’s your life and decision to make. I’m off to Calabar, see you tomorrow dear” she smiled, stood up and left. I quietly locked the door, fell on my bed and fetched a novel.

I was about boiling some eggs two hours later, when i heard someone knock on my door.

“who could it be?” i wondered as i opened the door. It really was no other person than Chike.

I wasn’t expecting him, hence my surprise when i saw him at the door. My thoughts ran wildly. Amara’s advice came crashing into my head.

“hullo, may i come in?” he asked polietly,
“of course” i smiled, stepping aside for him to enter. He quietly walked into my room, turned and stared at me with a smile.
“i’ll be leaving the country next monday, i got an urgent call this morning from the hospital i’m working with. I have no choice than to cut short my vacation” he said to me. I gasped and held my waist, feeling very sad.
My expression totally surprised him. He drew close and held my left hand, while i looked up into his eyes, which instantly coloured and lit up like a candle-light.

His face was lovely and inviting, my head confused and spinning.

Then it happened.
His lips came down, crushing mine. A short but hot kiss which engulfed me with a very strange s£nsat!on. I instantly became so tense, fragile and vulnerable. I tried to move my face but he calmly drew it up, making me stare into his eyes once again.

“The fear of a ‘NO’ is accountable for so many a ‘YES’ that never was” he murmured. My eyes dimmed.

“I want you, i can’t hold my feelings anymore, i want us to be one. Please say ‘YES’ to me, please give me the chance to prove my worth” he begged. I tried to say something but my lips shook, preventing me. I tried to look away, but couldn’t. My eyes melted as i stared at him.
“okay, yes” i finally murmured. He instantly closed his eyes and heaved a sigh of relief.
“Thank you dearest, thank you” he breathed happily.
“dear Lord, i hope this isn’t another mistake” i prayed, closing my eyes.
I said yes to him, but was conscious of nothing. I truly admired, respected and felt safe with him, but i still was steps away from loving him. It really was a very difficult decision. I couldn’t continue decieving myself with Mike.

“It’s time to control my destiny” i reasoned.

****THE END

was she right in accepting Chike’s proposal, how will Mike react?, can she learn to love Chike?, will her story have a happy ending??
