"Kemi, When I met you I came to heal your heart and not destroy it. I came to mend your wounds and not deepen it. I made promises and I have kept my promises. I never broke any.
"Kemi, I promised not to have sex with you and I kept my promise. I kept it. I never had sex with you."
"You did. You bastard you did. You took me to your house only to have sex with me. Alex you are wicked. You are such a liar. How do you explain the semen on my body? Why was I naked Alex? Why?"
"Kemi stop it. You pulled off your gown by your self. You said you were hot and the gown was too tight. You asked me to help you remove it. It was during that process that your wig fell off. I hung your gown on the wardrobe, and your wig on the sculpture.
"What about my pant and bra. Did I also remove that too? Did I?" I asked in a high pitched tone.
Alex bowed his head to the floor. He became suddenly speechless.
"You can't even look at me. You lying rapist." I turned to open my gates.
"I am not a rapist. Kemi I was stupid. I pulled off your bra and pant myself. I was stupid. I was tempted to make love to you. I couldn't control my urge. The promise I made to you was what stopped me. Kemi I thought of your feelings and how it will hurt you."
"Then how did your semen get on my body? How? Does your semen now have wings? Why can't you just tell me the truth. Why?" I thundered almost in tears.
"I masturbated Kemi. I stroked myself with my hands. I didn't realise the semen had spilled on you too. All I did was to look at your body and stroke myself. I am sorry Kemi. I am sorry. I tried to apologise. I tried to explain. But you never gave me a chance to. You were so angry with me.
"Kemi, I love you. I have never loved anyone like you before. I loved you from the very moment I set my eyes on you. I am a guy, a guy with flesh and blood running through his veins, but I am
not like the rest. I am different. And when I told you I wanted to spend the rest of my life with you, I meant it."
Alex dipped his hands in his right pocket and brought out a small red box. He flipped the cover open and my eyes beheld a diamond ring. It was so beautiful. It sparkled as he stretched it in front of him.
"Kemi I may not be the perfect man you have always dreamed off. I may not have won your trust yet. But I do not want this friendship we share to end. I want to spend the rest of my life with you. I want to spend the rest of my days proving the love I have for you. Kemi please marry me. Marry me and make me a happy man. Marry me so I can make you a happy woman. Give me a chance to make the rest of your days, the best of your days.( Za as used as the General means The)
