BELINA (After the Wedding) SEASON 2
EPISODE 9
Kelvin left his abode despite the inner battle he was fighting. He told himself that it was best to have nothing to do with Belina but he neglected that voice in his head. He had received that phone call about five days ago and hadn’t been able to rest from a strange lady whose name he could not remember. She had called on Monday evening, mentioned her name which he forgot immediately, and talked about things that were none of his business.
He already had his thumb on the red button of his phone when he heard her mention the name he had tried hard to erase from his
memory. His interests had been pricked and, try as he may, he could not turn down the offer of meeting the lady in person. Though, she did not mention the real reason for calling, he
surely wanted to find out as long as it had to do with Belina.
The very day she had got married, about two years ago, he had drunk himself to stupor knowing that he had lost a good woman.
He was finding it hard with women because he always compared them with her.
His hatred for Richard Branson grew at an
alarming rate but there was nothing he could do against a public figure. ‘I don’t even have any rights over her’, he thought.
He arrived at Da Queens Hotel and asked for Room 45, following the instructions sent to him via text. He was at the door barely two minutes later and he gave the door a slight pat. The door flung open and directly before him stood two exceedingly tempting ladies.
His eyes roamed their bodies hungrily. “Hello
ladies” he said breathlessly.
They smiled and invited him to the bed to sit. He cautioned himself and put up a passive front.
“Can you make this weird meeting as fast as possible?
I have an appointment”, he said.
Oyinade moved in her micro-mini gown to the
chair opposite Kelvin, sat down and crossed her leg intentionally. Kelvin’s breath
became caught in his throat and he diverted his eyes towards another direction; a wrong choice of direction because the other was
virtually naked. He had had enough.
He jumped to his feet instantly. “What is the
meaning of all these?
Did you call me here to be seduced?”
Not the reaction I was expecting, Oyin thought as she said calmly. “We are not seducing you, you are probably imagining things.
Please sit and let’s get down to business”. She said.
“Then, make it snappy”, he said sitting down forcefully.
Oyin removed a piece of paper and handed it over to him.
“Everything is written there. I don’t want to say it because the walls have ears”.
Kelvin scanned the paper and looked up. “You girls must be crazy. I won’t do this to her, and even if I tried, she won’t make it possible. She despises me and even if she didn’t, I won’t do this to her” he said with a straight face.
For the first time that evening, Ronke spoke.
“Oh c’mon, we all know that you are in love with her.
Yes, you offended her but you apologized right? Everyone needs a second chance.
All we are asking is that you try to get her back while she also tries to get Richard back.
As you have read,
Richard was her boyfriend some years ago and she loves him so much and wants to get him back.
I am sure Belina still loves you because you are her first love, you just have to try”, she said. Amazing what the mixture of lies can do.
Kelvin was silent; probably thinking. Oyinade decided to back her up.
“I am sure she would accept you back, with the right approach. I am also willing to pay you
five hundred thousand if you accept”
Kelvin looked up.
“The money is too small, do I look broke to you?” he said slowly.
“We don’t have more money”, Oyin said
impatiently.
“Let’s make another deal. I take the money and bed both of you together four times for a month, meaning once a week.
Do we have a deal?” he said hoping that this would make them change their minds.
Oyinade looked at Ronke who was busy with her phone. Getting a signal, she looked at Kelvin and said.
“Deal”
