IN The DARK (A Story Of Love, Betrayal And Survival) - Season 1 - Episode 38

I settled in an empty chair while Jordan sat beside me.I waited for him to start a speech for more than ten minutes but he remained silent.When i could not take the silence anymore i asked him if he had something to say, else he should excuse me.Jordan held my hand and said “Have got nothing to say but i can talk from now till eternity. I just want to be alone with you in a quiet place like this and inhale your saint. That is the one thing i miss the most about you” i could not help but laugh at what jordan said “How can you call me out here just to inhale my saint?” i asked him. He did not give a response, he only smilled and placed his head on my shoulder. “Feels like home” he said with a smille. I looked at him and folded my arms.I could not help but remember the love we once shared, even if it was for awhile, the memories was still fresh.I felt like my place was with Jordan, but I still comtemplated on what was right to do, giving Jordan another chance or shutting my doors to his to his love, he might end up cheating out of pity again.I looked at Jordan again and decided everybody deserves a second chance. He was my first love and no matter how betrayed i felt, first love they say never dies. I promised myself there and then to give him a second chance when the time comes. ”Did you miss me?” Jordan brought me back to reality with his question.The fact was that i missed him over the years, but the hatred i had for him never made me admit to the fact.I could not give a response so i only sighed. Jordan removed his head from my shoulder and asked if i missed him again, now with full seriousness. The look on his face was like his life depend on my response. I smilled and said yes, i did. Jordan breathe a sigh of relief and looked into my eyes. He held my cheek and said ” A secondchance is all i can ask for right now because you hold the key to my life. Finding love was more difficult than bringing down the highest mountain for the past five years but immediately i set my eyes on you again, i felt love. I just want to let you know that There is no love without you Nancy and if only i can get another chance to be with you, i will be the happiest man on earth. I promise never to bleep up sunshine” I could see the love in Jordan’s eyes and i could feel the emotions in his words. At that particular moment, my head was screaming yes, if only he could read thoughts. “So you abandon your only sister to be with a guy? There is God o. Pick up your tiny butt0ckz and lets go home asap” Khole voice interupted, stopping me from giving Jordan a response. I pushed khole playfully and left with Jordan holding hands. Jordan left with nelly, while i left with Josh and Khole. *************** ******* I woke up feeling lazy the following morning, i felt as if the whole of Nigeria problem was on my head. Khole wanted me to come with her that morning while mom wanted me to go shop for drinks with her after which i would join the interior decorator to decorate the house and join the maids to cook. I rushed out of my bed and said my prayers before rushing to take my bath. I dressed in a simple blouse and jean trouser and i rushed to mi mom and mi dad’s room to say my morning greetings.
Khole was waiting for me in the car already when i quickly had my breakfast and dashed to the car. Nelly joined us at “Head to toe ladies boutique” minutes later and we all went in to shop. After khole’s several rejection of selected dresses, she finally settled for a peach dinner gown. The short peach dress was body hug and it fitted khole perfectly. The dress did close to nothing to hide khole’s Sekxy curve and it made her look like a beauty queen. ” I hope Josh won’t go gaga tonight” i joked as khole checked herself out in the mirror. We all laughed as we went to the shoes section.
After much persuasion and rejection, khole finally picked a blue heels and a matching blue jewelry. Khole looked drop dead gorgeous when she wore her choosen dress, even nelly could not hide her surprise. “Am sure alot of guys will commit tonight” Nelly said as khole paid for her purchase. We all laughed and bid nelly goodbye as i left for home with Khole.
********************** Immediately we got home, mom asked to see khole’s dress, at first we refused, but with much persuasion khole gave in. “Woah! Am ordering the same dress right away” mom said when she saw khole’s dress, we both laughed at mom and made her know she was old and out of fashion. Mi Mom took it as a challenge and she walked round the living room swinging her hips to show that she was still energetic.I was still having fun watching mom do her catwalk when Jordan called and i excused myself to my room. “I just want to know what you will be wearing, it wont be bad to look like a couple” I could not help but laugh at Jordan request.
