Must Read: INTERMISSION (The Love) - Season 1 - Episode 12

EVELYN: To be a single mother

ME: ***shocked*** how are you going to do that?

EVELYN: i will just get pregnant ***she said with stern look**

ME: how will that be possible when you said that you don’t want to have anything to do with men?

EVELYN: yeah, i don’t want to be under any man but i want to get pregnant and raise the child by myself and the father will not have anything to do with the child when he/she grow up

ME: what? ***shocked***

EVELYN: you had me well

ME: but who do you intend to do that with?

EVELYN: somebody that i truly love

ME: have you find person or you are still searching?

EVELYN: i have found the person

ME: then what are you waiting for?

EVELYN: i am waiting for the person to make a move
ME: what if the person didn’t love you or decided not to make any move?

EVELYN: i know that the person loves me

ME: and who is the person?

EVELYN: i have a question to ask before answering that your question

ME: okay, you can go on

EVELYN: is it right for a lady to ask a guy out?

ME: that seemed weird to me but in some situation, its normal and the right thing to do

EVELYN: in which kind of situation is it right?

ME: maybe the girl or lady in question have a strong love for the guy and was desperate to let go of her ego to seek for happiness. And also, if the lady loves the guy and she also know that the guy loves her but was shy to woo her or he was an introvert, then it is more than right to ask him out

EVELYN: that is really cool ***she said as a smile flash through her face***

ME: and what category do you belong?

EVELYN: mine is very serious but it falls into the second category you mentioned. I love this guy and i know obviously that he also love me but was kind of been shy or feel intimidated by my presence or rather feel inferior to me.

ME: and who is this lucky guy?

EVELYN: wait, one more question please

ME: okay but no more question after that

EVELYN: what if the guy in question is under-aged; will it still be cool to ask him out?

ME: yeah, if you truly like him. Nowadays, age difference is no longer a barrier to any relationship because civilization is taking over but that will be termed “abomination” during the olden days

EVELYN: okay then

ME: you can now answer me; who is the person? Or are you not going to tell me?

EVELYN: it is very difficult to say but i have no choice

ME: you have a choice and that is to say it
She sighed, put off the electric cooker and abruptly turn to face me. Her face was very pale like someone that was been sick for months. Her eyes was showing two things; first, she have this face that says “should i tell him?” and secondly, her face said “let it go”

EVELYN: it is the weirdest thing to say but since we have become friend, i have begun to develop a very strong feeling for…**she stopped**

ME: who?

EVELYN: i have started to develop feeling for y..y.. ***her voice was cracking and she was forcing out the word from her mouth; she was fighting with her emotions but couldn’t let it go***

ME: ma, you just have to say it and believe me, your secret is safe with me

EVELYN: yu… yuu ….you

ME: ***laughing***

EVELYN: yeah, it may just sound crazy but that is the real truth. I know that you will be my junior brother or rather the last born of our family but love did not have any of that as an excuse. I tried to overcome it, but the more i try, the more i found it becoming stronger. I never stopped thinking of you; i couldn’t sleep at night because of you and the little sleep i do get was always compounded by dreams about you. I may be mad but i am really happy to be mad because of love

ME: ***confused*** you get to be joking
EVELYN: just take a look at my face and find out if i am joking ***i take a glance at her face and the expression on her face shows over seriousness***

I was becoming more and more confused, i began to sweat in the air-conditioner that was working at full speed, and my leg became weak that I had to sit on the bare floor with the knife I was using to slice the vegetables still on my hand. My head became dormant, my thinking rate developed millions of thought per minutes, my head was filled with thoughts but nothing in particular.

Today that i am supposed to be very happy is now turning upside-down
“What will i do?”
“Should i do this?”
“Or should i dissociate from her?”
“But that will be very disastrous”

I cannot come up with the conclusion on the decision to take

ME: Oh no ***i shouted in my head***
