Siblings In Love

Episode 33

Mike : Ella wait I’ll tell you everything!

But she was really hurt, she left. I was hurt too, I should have told her everything there is to tell. She ran away with mom’s car just to find me, Mom won’t take it lightly with her. She came here just for me only to get treated like trash by the same me. If she loves that much, why did I deny her? Why did I snub her? Why did I leave her? I want to just open up to her no matter how it hurts. If she still wants to be with me after everything I have to say, then I am lucky she loves me. I don’t want to loose her love, I don’t want this misunderstanding to last for long.
I went in and packed my things, I don’t care what ever Mom will do again. By the way, can she really do that? I came out of my room all ready to go, that was when I remembered that Chisom is sleeping and she’s the only one at home. I called her elder sister to come and pick her. She later came in the evening, so I left that evening. I met mom in her shop, she told me to go home and wait for her. I went home, straight to Ella’s room. She was sleeping, this time she was just wearing pant with face downwards…. She never change! I turned to leave “where are you going? Didn’t you come to see me? She asked. I was stunned….

Mike : So, you’re awake?

Ella : You woke me up”…she walked up to her wardrobe, took a top and bum short and wore in front of me.

Mike : Don’t you think it’s high time you stop undressing in front of me

Ella : Why? Didn’t you say that you are still my brother, always!

Mike : You’ll be twenty next month

Ella : Which is why I’ve been wondering if you will gift me as a brother or boyfriend?
……. I didn’t talk, I was just staring at her.

Ella :..using her two hands to hold her waist… “Oya, start talking”. I stared at her for 15 more seconds, then I rushed and hugged her.

Ella : tell me you missed me

Mike : I missed you

Ella : Add “so much” to it

Mike : I missed you so much

Ella : Say something else I want to hear

Mike : I love you, I love you Ella, I really love you so much.

Ella :..emotional.. “Fool, what happened to you? You’ll tell me right?

I disengaged from the hug and nodded in affirmation. She sat down on the bed and slightly hit the bed three times with her right hand, I went and sat down beside her.

Mike : You sure you want to hear it?

Ella :..nodded

Mike :..takes a deep breath ..”it started the day we came back from the village that I went to see Mom alone………
