“Cynthia! Achen called out.
“Yea he’s handsome sorry, my baby just kicked, Cynthia replied.
“Ouch sorry about that, let me get you water to drink, Achen said and got up to get water but saw the nanny coming out with the baby.
“Good afternoon, the nanny greeted.
“Afternoon, Achen replied and took a little glance at the baby, shook her head and took the water to Cynthia.
“You have a beautiful step daughter you know, I can’t imagine my boo having a child before i do, Achen said and Cynthia rolled her eyes and drank the water.
“Thank you, Cynthia said.
“You’re welcome, Achen replied looking at her while Cynthia felt uncomfortable.
“Are you sure you’re okay? Achen asked.
“Yea you won’t understand until you get there you know, She replied and Achen smiled.
“That will be soon I know, she said and her phone began to ring and it was him calling.
“Hello babe, she picked up.
“Where are Yuh now? He asked.
“Sorry I thought I told you about it, I’m in the capital, I came to visit my girlfriend, Achen replied.
“Ohh so when are you coming back? He asked.
“Soon, I’ll be on my way soon so I won’t arrive too late, she replied.
“Owk, call me when you get back, see ya, he said and dropped the call and Achen looked at her Cynthia smiling.
“You really love him don’t you? Cynthia asked.
“Love? No I’m crazy about him Cynthia and I will kill anyone who will dare try to come between us, because he’s mine, Achen replied and Cynthia gasped.
“Why should you say such a thing? Cynthia asked.
“Common girlfriend I’m not like you, he is mine and I won’t share him with anybody, not at all. Honey i have to get going you know, Achen said.
“But Yuh just came, can’t you wait for a little while? Cynthia asked.
“I know but the distance, and I don’t want to get there late, I really have to go but I’ll find a time to visit again before my wedding. I will leave early so we will talk a lot, I only wanted to know where you stay today, Achen said.
“Okay If you say so, and I’m so sorry and sad i won’t be able to attend your wedding, you know I want that more than anything, Cynthia said.
“I told you not to worry right? Mukasa will take your place and its fine by me. Alright my regards to your husband and your step daughter, and please baby don’t kick her too hard again, Achen playfully said winking at her and Cynthia gave a weak smile.
“Bye and safe journey, she said and Achen waved at the nanny and left.
Cynthia got up quickly to her bedroom,
“What’s the meaning of this and why must it be him? What will Achen do If she eventually found out I had something to do with her husband to be that even led to me being pregnant? Gosh! Cynthia worriedly said touching her forehead…………..

Ochen visited Christiana the next day after she accepted to go back to school, and he heaved after Christiana told him everything,
“What’s wrong? You’re not happy? She asked.
“Not that, I actually came to tell you something. I’ll be leaving the country to Ghana, there’s is a programme I want to run there, he replied.
“You’re leaving? Will it be that soon? She asked.
“I’m afraid is next week, my uncle arranged for it and I have no choice, I came to tell Yuh that, he said and she Nodded.
“Safe journey then, I believe you’re going there for your future so why are you sad about it? She asked.
“I don’t know, maybe I’m thinking of the people I’ll leave behind. Though I’ll be going with Bale but then, I still feel I’ll be lonely over there, he replied.
“Soon you’ll get over it, and how long will it last? She asked.
“4 years, he replied and she nodded.
“I wish you the best then, she said and Jendy walked in.
“Good afternoon ma, he stood up greeting her.
“Afternoon Ochen, how are you and Dembe? She asked.
“She’s fine ma, and she actually sent her greetings, he replied.
“Alright then send mine back to her, I’ll go in now, Jendy said and went in. Ochen sat back and took Christiana hand,
“Promise me you’ll be fine, he said.
“Must I promise? I’ll try my best to be fine and make sure you’ll be good over there too, she said and he nodded.
“I guess we will say our good bye here then right?, he asked.
“Yes, she replied and he hugged her for a while.

Ochen went back home and saw his mom waiting for him,
“Where are you coming back from? She asked.
“I went to Christiana place to tell her goodbye, he replied and sat down weakly.
“Ochen, you love that girl don’t you? Dembe asked and he rolled his eyes.
“Why the question mom? He asked.
“Because I want to know, besides is so obvious, she said.
“Okay mom what if i say yes? Ochen asked.
“You can’t be serious. Yes i know Christiana is a good girl but please Yuh can’t possibly fall in love with her knowing she was the same girl who caused a rift between you and Bale, Dembe said.
“I don’t understand mom, we are cool right? And Christiana had nothing to do with what happened, or is there anything you’re not telling me? Ochen asked.
“Look Ochen, i can’t let you have anything to do with that girl, you better forget about her please, she said and Ochen scoffed.
“Mom are you seriously saying this to me? Its Christiana we are talking about here remember, and She’s the first girl I’ve ever loved and i thought you’ll be happy for me, why this? He asked.
“Son i know, but please not her I beg you, she pleaded.
“Mom please i beg you too let’s not talk about this, I love Christiana and that can never change.
If you are talking about her past, i have accepted it and there’s nothing to be done, Ochen said getting up to leave for his room.
“Fine, but i know that saying is true, “out of sight is out of mind” after 4 years she will be forgotten i promise you, Dembe said.
“Lets not be too sure mom, beside she’s in my heart and not mind, Ochen replied and went in.
Unknown to them Bale was listening to their conversation and he didn’t like it all,
“I won’t let you have her either Ochen, that will never happen, Bale said in his heart and watched his mother sat worried…….
