Astray In Love

Episode 25

They both turned around and looked me in great surprised, Lucy covered her face immediately with the blanket, i recognized the guy very very well, I’ve seen his pictures on Lucy’s phone so many times, she said he’s her ex boyfriend. The anger in me was enough to boil water to make semovita at that moment, my legs was shaking on the ground, everything seems to be crumbling right in front of me.

Series of thought started running through my mind
“Which one should i even kill first”
“I think i will kill the guy first and kill Lucy later”
“What if Military Police arrest me after this act, it will be too bad for me ooo”
“Maybe i should just cut off this guy’s d**k”
“No, Lucy is a bastardized idiot”
“This guy took his chances”
“What am i even saying! He took his chances on my girlfriend”
I tried my possible best in order to control my anger, the guy was looking at me, they were both naked, he couldn’t move an inch, i guess it was because of the camouflage face cap i was putting on maybe he would have tried his luck. I just turned around and left the place, i was about exiting the main door and i saw her neighbour that said she wasn’t around, i stood still and we were both looking at eachother. “Partner in crime” i murmured in dismay before i took my leave. I was just driving like a drunkard on the road because i don’t even know what i was doing. I just wanted to go home and get myself together.

When i got home, i met my neighbour outside with her kids, i did not even bothered to greet her. I just open my door, entered and locked myself in. She came knocking my door and asking me what happened, i didn’t alter a single word as i was just lying down on my bed. “Indeed, life hasn’t be fair with me in any way” that was the only words i could altered at that moment. Immediately, i started feeling guilty, i know i have offended Ayomide. I know i needed her forgiveness before any other thing, i was just lost in another thought.

“what the f–k is wrong with me?”
“What has came over me?”
“What have i just done?”
“Have i been charmed”
“How could i have just left Ayomide like that?”

“After all the promised i made to her”
“I can’t believed i did not stay to fulfil any of those promises”
“I’m doomed”
I’ve to look for Ayomide and begged her, her forgiveness is what matter’s most to me now. Isn’t her non appreciative altitude manageable, maybe one day she would takes to correction. “If i could ever get another chance, i swear to cherish her for the rest of my life”. The ringing of my phone brought me back to life, i looked at the screen and to my surprised, it was Ayomide. I sat upright instantly, i couldn’t believed it
“How come this girl is calling at the particular time?”

“Has she found out what happened?”

“How will she even know?”

“Hope she’s not calling to make jest of me?”

“Hope is not what am thinking?”

The phone has rang two times, i was afraid to picked it. On the third call, summoned courage and picked the call.

Me: Hello Voice stammering

Ayomide: Hi, Gabriel how you doing?

Me: Am fine and you

Ayomide: Am cool! And why is your voice like this. Anything wrong?

Me: Nothing! I just have cough, that why my voice sounds cracked

Ayomide: Ok! I just wanted to say hi to you

Me: Thanks a lot

Ayomide: You welcome

Me: I will call you later in the day or tomorrow

Ayomide: Alright

Me: Bye!

Hanged Up

After i finished receiving Ayomide’s call, i have the zeal that she will forgive me if i walk up to her. I just have that confidence because i know Ayomide loves me.

“Where should i start from?” I took a deep breath.
