"The purpose is to make the point quiet similar to you."
"with the not subtle distinction being she got a good man and he showers her with much love"
"she once had that,Derby!"
"It was a year after she moved in with him, seemingly, inexplicable act ,that the young lady saw fit to submerge both her love and relationship into the darkness..."
"....well I guess, owing to the wealth and affluence of her fiancee,she... was only left with craving for his money and not the ..Loooove thing! What's the point of telling me this,Jackson"
"Can I please end my statement without your interjections? She was treated violently by him but he got free from being sent to prison."
"So what's the point?"
"Deborah .."
"...is Derbyyyy!"
"Miss Derby,in a case like this you shouldn't be judgemental.Now,ask yourself,why the lady is still with him and hasn't broken up with him yet"
"That's probably about the money.The guy I must say has the tendency to be unprofessional or lacks basic courtesy.Tell me ,what's the point,Jackson? I can't leave with someone who is violent all because of his wealth and not because they seem to be perfectly matched outward"
"The lady has developed a strong attachment or infatuation towards him.You suggest you'd leave him being it you?"
"Alright! I'm out of here!''
"wait,can you please tell me why you keep denying every guy that comes your way?" He could just read from my face that his question was taken in not by a good heart.Should I be telepathic,I would say he wished I took it as a rhetorical question.
"I...I don't know . Maybe I'm not just meant to fall or I was the problem..."
"... Exactly!.... I'm sorry. Didn't mean it that way."
"That's fine with me.Let me try catching up with my mates.See ya!"
As I walked across the Cafeteria opposite Faculty of Agriculture ,I was entirely filled with emotions.At some point, I wanted to cry,I wanted to behave myself at another point.It was not just making sense to me on how I felt but all that I knew was I wanted to vanish from his sight and not to even see his shadow.It was the second semester of me being enrolled into one of the best universities in Ghana,KNUST.
I've known Jackson from one of my visits to his school.I was chosen to be one of the representatives of my school and we happened to be friends after my school took the position in the High School Debates.Talking about my male friends,one would say, I was a misandrist. He was my closest friend and we would spend hours repeating to ourselves how much we would loved to meet after our last encounter.
Hopefully for me,the shuttle wasn't filled with many students so I managed to hide my tears."You're the problem!"it echoed in my ears followed by Jackson's previous sentence that let me down completely.
I had sat in the shuttle twice without reaching my destination.It wasn't the driver's fault.He had already conveyed people to my faculty twice without me noticing.I hurriedly got down on the third time of his return .As usual,I was late for Dr .Yeboah's lecture and this must have enraged him to order me forward.I dared not make a change in position,he would call me to answer a question.As I sat down, my brain was in a cognitive process trying to reason someway with me and not with his words.
The following morning, I remained in bed, ignoring his calls and texts. While my friends were out enjoying themselves, I decided to stay in. After considering what he had said, I realized he was right. I had a tendency to turn down every man who showed interest in me, perhaps out of fear or because I wasn't ready for a relationship. My primary focus at the time was on my education.I didn't like the home I walked to on every vacation or break.My recent vacation or break was filled with unpleasant memories, and it felt like I was in a haunted house. I found it difficult to enjoy myself due to my mother's constant complaints about the financial demands of school.
It's important to be open with your children about what you're going through, but it's also essential to consider the impact it may have on them. Sharing too much information can create anxiety and stress, especially if they are too young to understand. It's crucial to find a balance and provide age-appropriate information while also being mindful of their emotional well-being.
"I attempted to count the stars, but I found it impossible. Being in your presence leaves me breathless, and I have been eager to express my feelings for you. I am willing to do anything to make you mine, and I only need a simple "yes" in response. Would you do me the honor of being my date?"
"say yes!say yes!"the crowd murmured.I was left stunned by Dylan's action and it seemed to me like Ana's fake love with the Sadist.I was taking a stroll on the road behind Republic Hall when I decided to rest on one of the lovers' benches opposite the entrance of this hall.Suddenly,my retina was filled with images of people staring at me.Some had to come closer to get the real look.It was one annoying trumpeter,playing one of Kidi's song,"I Do."Dylan then appeared kneeling on one of his knees with a bouquet of flowers.It read from his appearance that he was more than ready .
My eyes were just behaving as it was the countless time of witnessing this.Everybody was expecting my answer to be a yes since it was every lady's dream to be treated in this way.My answer was the opposite of yes.You read it right,No!I knew Valentine's day was in two days ahead but I preferred using that time wisely.I was into fashion.I loved to design clothes and was hoping to be called by one of the famous Fashionista,Lady Glacy ,who was then going to hold a fashion week programme on that red day .
Some of the people got upset,others too gossipped and couldn't hold but laugh out loud to his fall.He stood silently for a moment without uttering a word .My excuse was that I already had a date which was untrue.I turned him down without remorse and walked out.
My recent actions became the talk of the students and everyone was curious about my identity, motivation, and worthiness of the person in question. I was not prepared to receive any visitors, including the campus journalists.
I was already running late and my only hope was to find a seat at the library. I enjoyed spending my free time there, as it provided a peaceful environment for uninterrupted learning. The library is owned by the Faculty of Pharmacy and is known for its serene atmosphere. As I was rushing, I accidentally bumped into a well-dressed man. I couldn't help but admire his appearance, as he was the epitome of perfection. I was so captivated that I didn't even notice when my phone fell out of my pocket. .I couldn't hold but to admire his beauty.Oh! Describe your desired man in your own way but he was so perfect to use simple words to describe him.Walking by without saying sorry really annoyed me.Who did he think he was to just collide with me without apologizing.
"You shouldn't lose your manners in apologizing for your mistakes,young man.You bumped into me!" He wasn't talking back.He only stared at me with a confused face.I wouldn't be deceived my his cuteness.He should apologize,I was demanding him .
"Sorry,ma'am! It wasn't meant to happen.I apologize for his inconvenience ."
"Who are you and I don't need your apology.He is required to do the necessary .Is this hard to say,huh!You should behave as you look!"
I searched my bag thoroughly,but unfortunately, I couldn't find what I was looking for. I was certain that I wasn't careless with my belongings .
"Oh!So he can't keep his hand still even after not have small manners."
It is said that destiny has many paths in store for us. Whether we are ready or not, whether it is the right time or not, we must be prepared for what lies ahead of us.
I was still trying to figure out how I lost my phone.My friends were busily chatting and laughing out their breath as we made our way to visit a friend that night.I wasn't patiently waiting to see him again.i wanted to just pounce on him and tell him of the words I've rehearsed for him.They asked me of my sudden mood change and it led them to laugh more when they learnt about the cause.
"Chill,girl!Is not a big deal .Okay!You talking about your tiny winny key pad which is missing.Oh my God! It doesn't even cost a dimer for you to be upset and go all moody"Lina never liked me and every chance she would get,she made sure she pierced me hard with words I didn't want to hear.Their consent was not on me.As I briskly walked away from them,I was panting profusely like I was being chased by a stalker at night.
"You thief!Give me back my phone.It might not be worth a dimer it meant everything to me."It was funny and I didn't even know what I was doing as I held his neck .Maybe I wanted to strangulate him but I wasn't with that energy to do so.He turned to look at me and smiled whilst I was busily pouring out my anger .
"What are you starring at?I demand you give my phone back.Can you please give it back...gush! why am I even adding respect to this.I said give me back my phone!Oh! You don't have to pretend. Just give it back and I won't tell anyone.I'll walk back like I never came."I muttered to him.
He just stared at me confused.I didn't know wether I seemed funny to him but that was unprofessional of a thief to me.Under normal occasions,you'll have shamefully return the stolen item.That should have read to me that he was innocent.
Finally,it was valentine's day.My roommates were tossing items anyhow as I laid in bed watching how funny they were.
"Hei,Miley!Do you know where one of heels is", Josephine shouted from showering.
"Crazy!Nope!"Miley on the other hand was dressed and couldn't help but admire her beauty severally in the mirror."I'm beautiful in this radiant dress!I'm beautiful no I'm not! He's gonna not take his eyes off me!Oh!I'm elegant.So adorned with much beauty.Hei, Josephine!Where did you put my red purse.I need it .... now!"she chorused
It was an enthusiastic moment seeing them behave in that manner.
"what are you giggling at?"They chorused at me.
"Ermmmmm..." Before I could make a Statement,there was a knock on the door .Miley had to do the needful of attending to them because there was no way I was getting my body off the bed.
"Derbyyyy! You've got a visitor"That wasn't what I was expecting."Awn!You're so lucky.Initially, I was supposed to be furious at the guy. However, his friend was an excellent talker and managed to make me laugh. Suddenly, he handed me a gift box. It seemed as though my friends knew what I was going to say, or rather, they were used to me denying gifts. I was quickly called inside and given an admonishment. A beautiful lady wearing a stunning long black dress with a plunging neckline and a thigh-high slit. The dress was made of luxurious silk and hugged my curves in all the right places. My friends completed the look with a pair of elegant black heels, a silver clutch, and diamond stud earrings. My hair was styled in loose waves, and my makeup was subtle yet sophisticated, with a bold red lip. I exuded confidence and grace, making heads turn as I logged into the ballroom.
"All eyes on my girl!"Miley whispered.I knew how uncomfortable I felt.I wasn't meant for this,well,as in for now.The MC kept on admiring me with compliments.I happened to walk out after some hours of not being entertained .It was only this strange guy whom I didn't even know his name.He had my attention driven to him.He couldn't get his eyes of me."No,this isn't the right time to fall. You should keep your eyes on the trophy ahead and not him.He is just an obstacle. You're a good girl. Don't you fall for his trap"I kept muttering to myself.
Imagine a couple sitting on a rooftop with a beautiful view of the city skyline. They are wrapped in cozy blankets, sipping on hot cocoa, and enjoying each other's company. They are listening to their favorite music, talking, and laughing under the stars. They are playing board games or cards, or watching a movie projected onto a nearby wall. The cool night air is refreshing, and they are snuggled up together, enjoying the moment. It's a simple yet romantic night, filled with fun and laughter.This was how I felt when I went out to admire the night.From behind,I was tapped gently and it sent a signals to my reflexes.I responed with goosebumps all over me as our eyes got locked together.
"No,don't come closer!"I guess I was speaking out nothing since he hugged me only to wrap me with his suit.
I've had encounter with many males but none has gotten the chance to get so close to me.It was a different new experience to me.I didn't know what was preventing me from stopping.The need for him to be much closer to me was a demand at that instant.
It sounded like I had a remarkable encounter with someone who truly captivated my heart .
The night was briefed on my return to hostel when I didn't appreciate what ensued between the stranger and I.I had stayed up late constantly arguing with myself on basis of me making the right choice or a mistake.
I wasn't surprised my frontal lobe was activated,part of it was busily in critical thinking.
Memories of what occurred between us were unforgettable and that made a lasting impression on me.An experienced that had so much impact on me that should I lose consciousness,I wouldn't want them to be annihilated.We shared a moment of closeness when he tried wrapping my shoulders with his coat.His body scent being overpowering drew me closer to him.As we shared playful moment , we rubbed our faces together . I could feel the urge to have him all to myself tonight.It felt like I was dreaming with me trying to live the night like I'd always dreamt of.He reaching to kiss my forehead was a whole feeling on it own.If there should be a spot that attracted me to him,he immediately discovered when he held my waist and pulled me close to him tightly.It wasn't a "Don't stop " moment as I felt his lips on mine.I'd forgotten he was a stranger then and all that mattered was his soft lips on mine ,his gentle hands being able to find the love spots on my skin
