Read Story: SEASON 1 EPISODE 24

Cont’d:

All the talks between Amara’s mum and I were totally on low key that I doubt even a person eavesdropping could make out any proper meaning out of them.

I started thinking real hard about what the woman has just told me.Even though I don’t want to admit the fact that this is exactly the side of me that Pretty really tried very hard and truly finally appealed to,doubts crept into my being.

Real doubts!

I was still having this doubt when Junior came back into the room.We chatted small before I slept off!

The next day,things looked bright and everyone felt happy for the new day.

It was as if we all dreamt about God Himself and Him promising us that everything is gonna be alright.

Being a government worker,Amara’s dad didn’t really feel bothered about preparing to leave.

Her mum later left after breakfast. At around 10:00am,Amara said she was taking me out and we left their house.

Throughout the morning, this was our only alone time.Even Amara’s mum didn’t even appear as if she said some thought provoking stuffs last night up until she left.

*

As soon as we left their house, the thoughts and main motive of what actually brought me to Owerri started pricking my mind..Every time our eyes met as we strolled through some of the terrains of O-town down to the particular place we were going,some sort of Guilt filled my being..The idea of seeing the happy ever astonishing sweet face and smile of Amara soured,brought a kinda fright to my spine.The idea of actually knowing the devastating effect of what I had in mind will cause for Amara made me weep so many times in mind without control. I really cried..

I was powerless.I felt there was no longer a choice left in me again.Every atom and drop of whatsoever molecule in me has believed the fact that Amara and I are like one,I am a part of her as she is mine.Saying that we are one is an understatement..

Thinking all this things through,I just decided to see if there is a way my intuition, my ever-thinking cognitive brain will take me out of this messy emotional sh*thole.

We entered one restaurant like that where we stayed for a while chatting before Amara said she has a better idea.She said we should go to a hotel. I was like “what?”.

Well,I know better to not start an argument I was still going to give in to.I allowed her idea,but told her she was going to foot the bill.She said nope,that I should do that,but if after doing that and I want a refund,she will gladly do so.End of discuss.Which guy would want a refund?

We went to a hotel,the one after Assumpta Cathedral while going to my village after we went and withdrew money.We payed and lodged in one of the rooms.As soon as we were settled down and started talking,a taught occurred to me.

“Have you ever considered the idea of marriage?” I asked her.

After looking at me carefully, she replied:

“Sometimes!”

“And when you think about marriage,what comes to your mind?” I asked further.

” Do you want us to get married?” She jokingly but seriously asked.

“If that’s possible, right now,that’s exactly what I need!” I replied.

She looked at me and smiled.

” So,why exactly did you bring up the marriage subject? ” she inquired.

“Seriously speaking and openly as honest as I will ever be,the idea of you finally leaving me and marrying someone else when the time comes is the highest tormenting thought and event I dread more than death itself!” I finished.

I wouldn’t say I caught her down or that I told her something she has not thought of before,but the expression she didn’t willingly let bare let her down.

“Don’t say like that Odii!” She just muttered.

Going closer to her, I told her this:

“When the time comes,please don’t let your love for me make you not to do what you should do!” I told her.

“Please promise me?” I spoke again.

She just left where we both were and stood up and faced another side,so that she wouldn’t have to look at me..

Yea,she was trying to hide the fact that she is at the verge of letting her cloudy tears drop the tears therein.

I understood!

The room was silent for a while I stayed back at the bed,allowing events to play out themselves.

After like two minutes or so,she came back to face me,with a refreshed kind of face.She laid down and made me do same too.We now laid down,facing each other eyeball to eyeball,both of us fully away that we are not decieving ourselves,well aware of what needs to be done.

“You have really attained real maturity and really bold now Odii” she said.

“You are making fun of me now!” I chipped in.

“No,am very serious.What you just said right now,even in my highest anger mode,I can’t even do it.I don’t have the courage to do that.To be frank,I’m afraid.The thought of it really frightens me!” She concluded.

I smiled.

” Don’t worry love.Just know that I can handle it.Don’t pity me,You purely know that i hate to be pitied.” I concluded.

“Come here”‘ she said to me as I drew closer to her and we locked up in a an entanglement that led to many numerous s*x adventures that day.It was purely exhilarating.

I must say that when you are with someone whom you truly love,every other thing remained distant and at a further receding secondary importance;only the two of you in that moment matters….and there is nothing no one else can do about it.I believe its primal!

We stayed in that hotel till evening time,and to be sincere,we both wished that time will just remain still for us.We talked on virtually everything that needs to be talked on and can actually be talked on.Everything!

When we finally left the place and headed to their house, I promised her that I will be visiting her more this days,but not in their house.She smiled and as is very normal of her,she called me bad boy.

“So how exactly do you always know where I am?” I stupidly found myself asking Pretty as I woke up the next day with her lying sitting by the edge of the bed.

That’s because I am always with you,even though you don’t know it.

“What’s up for today then?” I asked.

“Great things ahead.So,how was your little journey?” She asked me.

It was great.

“Great as in?” She queried.

“Its done,although not in the way that I wanted it,but its done.Hope you are now happy?” I asked.

She smiled!

“So,what do you have in mind for me today, I inquired from her.

“Nothing really,Unless you want to go for an outing..You are too big for that though!” She joked around.

“With you,am not too big for anything my dear!” I replied her back..

That was the last statement I made amongst several other tete-a-tete we had that i couldnt remember before waking up and realising as usual that it was all dreams.

Save for Amara’s insistence, I would have gone in the morning of that Sunday,but I had to stay with them,or more like with till the time I left their place,whilst also reassuring her that I will be doing as I promised..

Whilst going back to Aba that day,one bad thought occurred to me to which I afforded serious consideration to.

As the thought took control of me,I called Tobechukwu that he will have to cover me once more.He obliged me,reminding me that when he will require my own help in the future,I should remember this..I laughed and retorted:

“What are we brothers for!”.

I called Pretty immediately and told her that am on my way to Aba but that I want to sleep at her place that night before going back to my place the following morning..She was totally excited and overjoyed..

Yea,I figured that since am doing a bad thing,best do it to its fullness..
