The next day has me waking up with a headache. My mind flashes back to last evening , the pains is still fresh and I know that it will take a bit to gather myself together, I was about to cry when I heard a tap on my door' and I guess it could be mom' she tries all she could last night to cheer me up even to the point of singing to put me to bed and am very grateful her song truly helps to subside my pains and I don't know when I draft to sleep.
"Sweet heart are you still sleeping " she asked
"No mummy am awake"
Immediately she opens the door and saw me she smiled, a smile that tells me all is well, a smile that encouraged me no Mather what you pass through don't forget to smile always, smiling brings out the best in you and encouraged you to move on and never backed down
"How are this morning ?
"Am doing fine mommy' all thanks to you" I said and she smile more bringing out her dimples and I don't know why I don't have dimples like mom and dad, I wish I have one, gosh I will be smiling every second to show everyone my beautiful dimples'. well am not the creator of myself and I bless the creator for creating and making me who I' m, even though I did not look like my mum or dad, I still bless him
"Still thinking " She said,I smile and nod my head
"Just thinking about your dimples and it looks lovely you when you smile" I answered and oh my god she smile much, this woman will not kill me with smiles today
"So are ready to tell me what happens to you yesterday? She asked and I lowered my head, I can I the my mum that I caught my boyfriend making out with my best friend on his bed, and to worsen it my parents don't play with my best friend, they loved her as if she was part of the family, how can I break the news to her
"If you don't want to talk about it maybe later, just freshen up and come downstairs. She was about to stand up but I held her hand
"No mummy is not that am not ready to talk , I am' I need someone to talk to, to lessen my mind' but can you withstand the shock ?
"What types of shock are you talking about sweetheart? Are you pregnant? Here she come, I have to laugh out loud, my mummy will not kill me
"No mummy! you know am not that type of girl.
"Then what happen? Don't hid it from me okay" I have to breath In and out before letting the cat out of the bag
"Mummy! Bard is cheating on me. I caught him yesterday having an affair with another lady "
"What ! she shouted with anger
"What do you mean Christabel ' that you caught your boy friend Bard, making out with a girl ? She asked with confusion written over her face
"Yes mummy "
"Do you know the girl? she asked
God how can I tell her is Sonia, she will be sad
"Bel! do you see her face? do you know the girl ?
"Yes mummy "
" Who ?
" S...so...so....'
"Why so so so' talk, tell me who the girl is that made Bard Ditched you for " she asked with anger and hatred on her face
"Mummy is Sonia my best friend. I said at last
"I know it' I know that she must be the one. she said and I was surprised
"H..how ! W...when !?" I asked stuttering, Why didn't I see the handwriting on the wall?
" I don't know but I always have this feelings whenever they visited us, the way they looked at each other' I definitely knew that something is wrong.
But we were too blind to see it cos of the love we have for her, ' she said and I know that what she said is true, because I was so blind to have trusted her like my sister and I will never fall for it again. Talk more of trusting men again.
"But don't worry dear ' everything will be fine. He who Laugh's last laughs the best and I know that your creator will never fail you" She said and I smiled. Thanks Mummy, I said hugging her" You are the best "
"And you are the best daughter everyone will wished to have and am glad I met you in my life". Enough of this chichat, freshen up and come down before your dad start wondering what's keeping me so long"
"Okay Mummy' but please don't tell dad about this"' I said and she nods her head and left
I sighed and stood up from my bed. Walks into my bathroom to brush my teeth and freshen up, after that I came out, wear a jeans with a fitted top and approach the mirror to brush my hair, looking at my self in the mirror I saw another person that's not me, my hair was in a mess and my eyes is now bloody red like my hair colour, sometimes I don't understand the colour of my eyes, sometimes golden, sometimes red and I don't know how to ask my parents about it' I don't want them to be worried about me, I had to brush it off and lives the way I see my self. So I have to brush my hair' it was not easy cos my hair is very long. Have complained to mummy about cutting it with scissor' even if is small but was shunned never to outer such words again and since them I have close the chapter of cutting it, so after brushing it, I braid it into a ponytail and hurriedly went downstairs, where I met them charting happily. My dad was shocked when he saw me coming down from the stairs with my outfit
"Bel are you not going to work today ? what happened ? don't tell me that your boss succeeded In firing you? he said looking a bit worried
"No daddy I'm off today" I lied to him and he exhale the breathe he was holding since
"Oh thank the creator' I thought that he has sacked you" he said and smile
"What's for breakfast cos am hungry "
"Here comes my baby girl again' it has been long since we ate as a family" Dad said smiling happily and I smile back. How much I have missed his smiling face and dimples. My daddy is a handsome guy despite his age, he still looks handsome. Sometimes I do envy my mum for having such a loving , caring and protective husband like my dad and I hope to find mine some day.
After having a wonderful breakfast with them. I took permission to stroll around the street cos staying indoors with my broken heart is truly suffocating me.
They bid me fare well without forgetting to warn me to come back before twilight. I can't tell why they are very overprotective of me, as a lady of 24, they still want me back before night' can you imaging that?
I decided to take a stroll and from there search for another available job, I walked through The barely crowded streets of S city . the cold breeze blew into my face as I let out a sigh. Forward ever backward never.
