Harper, Charlie, Aiden and Neil all went to a separate game on the school field on Saturday.Aiden and Neil on the football field playing football when Neil sighted Harper coming and tapped at Aiden's back as they were observing break.
" What is funny this morning, guy?" Aiden asked him, with the ball at his front, waiting Neil get set.
" When I told you that this girl is not made for you, you thought I was joking." You will never go far if you keep given yourself hope that she is yours.
Neil was still laughing as he said this to Aiden. Aiden was wondering what he was saying. He didn't know that Neil had used such words to remind him of what he had told him concerning having feelings for Harper.
" I don't get you bro, speak to my understanding. he asked him, still in clear understanding of what Neil was saying.
" Is it not your dream wife coming Or is it her second? It was as if Neil was planning to make a mockery of him while they were still talking. Aiden turned and saw Harper already in the field with Charlie. Charlie was busy playing basketball at the basketball field while Harper was walking around the field as part of her own exercise as the doctor asked her to do.
"I didn't see her, but look at how beautiful this girl has become in this pregnancy, especially now she is staying with.... Aiden trying to tell Aiden that Harper now stay with Alexander when he remembered that the discussion wasn't to be made public. He held on.
"When I say, don't go after what is not yours. You think I am playing, you would have being your head for Alexander to chop off in the names of love." Neil making more moctery of him.
"Anyway, I still believe she is mine." She will still be available after delivery. He said it before Neil.
But Neil didn't understand what he meant; instead he talked about Alexander finally getting married to her based on the engagement ring on her finger.
" What you don't know is more than you." Neil answered him and passed the ball to him to begin the game properly.
An hour later, everyone was done with his or her game. Neil refused to go with Aiden home because he wanted to see his friends Harper and Charlie
"When you have failed, keep giving yourself hope." Neil said to him with a dragged hand to force him to go home with him, but he refused.
" You called me a failure. Were you not the one that discouraged me when I wanted to tell her how much I loved her? " Aiden points at Neil as he speaks in a sad mood,and Neil, on his own, had made a step to go home before Aiden said so.
"I don't understand you, boy; isn't it clear to you now that she isn't yours?or do you want to go kill yourself for another man's thing? Just go give thanks to God for not falling into Alexander hands, because you can't afford what it take to be free from his hand, we are just from a common home. The main thing is that you and I are in almost the same class, but we will both go higher in the future. Anyway, keep giving yourself hope until you finally remain in school simply because of a woman when your mate has finally graduated." Neil speak to him, as he made step to go home.
" If you like, as you are going home, finish the rest of the food, OK." Aiden uses this in another way to ask him to reserve some Food for him.
" I believe you are not coming back home now." You will go with them to their house after discussion. They should be able to give you food. " Neil concluded with him.
"Am now a longer throat, ba?" He sounded funny to Neil, as Neil had the ball in his hand to return it home.
Harper and Charlie sat in the field under a shelter.
" I think I am beginning to love him." Harper said to Charlie.
" Love who?" she asked her, with almost shock in her face as she looked at Harper and saw the sign of feeling she had started developing for Alexander, "Wait! Don't tell me that you have finally begun to love the man you hated at first, the same man you swore not to give your body to? " Charlie points fingers at her, throwing such questions at her.
"Yes, I hated him at first, but in the few weeks I have spent with him, I have begun to love him." Though we sometimes have misunderstandings, even with that, I still found love in his nagging. " She happily said to Charlie.
" You must be joking." Please deliver his babies and leave his house. before he holds you with another contract. " Charlie speaks of the future with Harper.
"I don't think he will allow me to go this time around, because his mother is already involved in this, and with the look of things, she won't let me go. Yes, he may not want to marry me, but she will find a way to make him see reasons why I am his perfect wife. " Harper gleamed, her teeth before Charlie, with such an assurance of being Alexander future wife.
" Continue dreaming until the family shocks you with their action at last." She told Harper.
Aiden arrived with his jersey soaked with heat and his boots almost dirty.
" Our future Ronaldo," Harper Jokely said to him.
" Abi," he answered her as a friend. " So how is the pushing? I hope you are pushing it well." He asked while sitting closer to her.
" Our friend is beginning to fall for him, even though she hasn't yet been through with the contract." Charlie without allowing him to sit comfortably, when she said so to him.
"Quiet na, must you tell him everything I told you? Harper asked her with a bad look.
"Girl, don't tell me that Charlie is saying the truth." Aiden stated that after hearing Charlie latest news, his body reacted uncomfortably, knowing that she was no longer his, but he needed to be certain from her.
"Is it bad for me to love the father of my babies ? Harper asked him by using the expected twins to describe her love for Alexander.
" This is a contract and not a matter of love; and besides, he doesn't even love you. You should also know that he made a fool of you, using this to prove that he has finally got you through this." Aiden says this to her to make her withdraw the feelings she had for Alexander.
"But I am with his babies, and they are mine. Yes, he made a fool of me, but a fool that has now turned to love. And I believe, with time, he will learn to love me back." She responded to him.
Aiden ,after hearing Harper response,
couldn't say a word further. Instead, he looked at her and said good bye to them. The same words make him have a change of mind about accompanying them or going with Charlie to her house as he had planned . He decided to go to his house instead.
The two girls, on the other hand, walked together outside the school and boarded a taxi, which dropped Harper off at Alexander house while Charlie went to her own apartment.
