Chapter Seven
I could not take it anymore from Vicent, I love him with all my heart, just only a mistake, I got the insult of my Life from the one I love.
' ouch it hurt ' I never new that the one I love never loved me back, he was always pretending to be my boyfriend while we were in higher institution.
*****
" babe" Micheal called me as I was trying to go up to my room
" yes" I replied him as he directed me to sit near him
" you are going back to your parent house" he said to me
" why" I asked worriedly
" is that not what you want" he asked but l kept quiet
" am coming to see your parent this Saturdays for the proper preparation of the wedding and paying off dowry" he said to me
" but the money they owe you was for the dowry" I Sadi to him
" as my in-laws, I have forgotten about the borrowed money, I will do the right thing to do " he said to me
" okay, when should I go" I asked him
" tomorrow morning, Bryan will drop you off" he said
" no don't worry, I would love to go by myself" I said to him as I peck him on his cheek before heading to my room
*****
" congrats ma" Bryan said to me
" okay thanks" I said shyly as he put my luggage inside a cab I stopped
" bye" I said to him as I entered inside the cab
" take me to SIX U.S ROAD" I said to him
" yes ma" he replied
I look out through the window, wow how beautiful is this estate, it view from afar
Is magnificant.
I will miss the cool breeze, the beautiful buildings and all for just one two days wow.
' what am I saying' I asked myself as I laugh out loud
" ma we are here" the driver interrupted me
" okay" I said to him as I gave him his money
I look up at the man from my back seat, what will I do now.
" any problem ma" he asked
" do you have another appointment" I asked him
" no ma, why" he asked
" I want to drop something here, can you wait for me, this is not my destination" I said to him
"ma" he tried to complaint
" I will pay you more" I said to her
" okay ma" her replied
*****
Knock knock
" who is there" a female voice answered
" ehm it's me" she said to the voice
" who are you" the voice asked
" am Rose" she said to her
"okay" she said as she opened the door
Standing in front of her was a lady, taller than her, Chocolate in colour, putting on a black singlet with bumshort.
" hi how may I help you" she said to Rose as she stood in front of the door not letting her in
" am looking for Vicent" she said to the lady
" who are you" she asked
' enough of this joke, who is she and why does she act like his mom '
" see I don't know who ever you are, am his girlfriend and am looking for him" she said in anger as she started breathing fast
" oh pardon my manners, you are his girlfriend he told me about" she said to her in a mocking way
" his run away girlfriend" she said again to her
" hi am Dora his fiancee" she said to me as she shows me the ring on her finger
' Jesus, just under one month'
" I I see let me ..." she could not complete my words as tears fell off her eye
" oh baby girl, clean your tears" she said to her
" I love him, I was ready to spoil this marriage plan just because of him but he had a fiancee at my back within just one week" she said aloud
" keep that confession for him and not me thank you" she said as she entered the house and close the door
****
" love with your head and not your heart" I remembered this word from Victor when he found out that I had been the one Loving and not being loved
I rushed to the cab and entered it while cleaning my tears, I didn't get to meet Vicent.
" so this have been one sided love" I said aloud
" what did you say ma" the driver asked
" did I said anything" I asked him in confusion
" yes ma" he said
" take me to ..." I told him my address
" okay ma" he said to me
*****
" she is gone and are you happy" Dora said to Vicent when she entered back to the house
All along, Vicent was around, he saw Rose coming and asked his woman to go confront her.
Truth be told, Dora had been Vicent girlfriend before he met Rose in higher institution, Dora found out about Rose and threatened to end the relationship. As the girl he loved, he tried so many ways to end the relationship with Rose but he failed and this marriage problem brought an answer to his problem. He happily proposed to Dora the night when Rose had called him to tell him about the marriage stuff.
" thank you love" he said to her as she sat near him
" why didn't you confront her" she asked
" come here" he said as he carried her on his laps
" she loves me and I wrong her by not loving her back "
" I felt pity for her as she told me how she loves you" she said to her
" chapter close, your love is enough for me dear" he said to her as he carried her up
" what are you doing" she asked excitedly
" let's go and play upstairs" he said to her
****
" stop me here" Rose said to the cab man
" okay ma" he said
" have your money" I said to him as I came down from the cab
" thank you ma" he said as he brought down my luggage from his boot
****
Two days later
" you all are welcome once again" Mr Okiyi said to the people in the sitting room
Rose entered the sitting room smiling, on her was a beautiful purple and white expensive gown. Ann sighted her and gave her the sign of what they planned to do and she nodded her head.
" my princess, the only daughter of her father" he praised his daughter as she was smiling
" come here my daughter" he said to her
" am here father" she said to him
" this man sitting down here" he said as he point at Mr Micheal
" said that he loves you and will want to marry you" he drops the bombshell and look at his daughter, signifying that she should not let him down
