The door opened, revealing Leo but he stopped when he saw the scene…
Philip broke the hug and Kissed her face round
“I love you” he said
“I love you more” she replied as tears fell from her eyes
“Honestly I’m scared, I get scared a lot sometimes, thinking what happened in the book will be our ending but I just console myself everyday with the thought that it’s just a book” she said. He wiped her tears and hugged her again
Without hearing from anyone, Leo got what’s happening immediately, he came in fully and stood beside Carolyn
“Just believe nothing will happen, that is enough, ok?, That book is not us, that book is not our fate, that book is trash, we have an happy ending in front of us ok?” He said, she nodded and stopped crying
Carolyn smiled again and Immediately they broke the hug, she hugged Philip
“Thanks for being strong even after reading it, let’s be strong together, Stella will be no match for us if we stay strong” she said
” I know, let’s stay strong” he replied and left Carolyn to hug Leo, Carolyn hugged Melanie
“It’s ok buddy, be strong like HNP said, everything will be ok” Leo said, patting his back.
” Thanks buddy”
” Melanie thanks for staying, no Stella will touch you” Carolyn said
” Ok mum, I’ll be strong like I’ve never been before, trust me” Melanie replied
Robin watched from the stairs and smiled
“Yes, let’s be strong like we’ve never been before, I love that spirit mum” he thought in his mind
He suddenly held his chest again and before his nose will start bleeding, he ran upstairs…
*************
Next day**
“What should I do with you?, You forced me out for lunch again” Sally said during lunch with Leo at a restaurant
“Cos I love being with you” he replied
“Stop saying that” she said though she loves hearing it
” Ok, I love staying with you” he replied
She’s about to tell him to stop saying it again when he winked
She faced her plate of food and refused to look up
“It worked!” He said, holding her hand on the table
“Sally I’m sure you know why I’m doing all this” he said
“Boss suddenly returned from his business trip even when it’s not it’s not time to come back yet” Sally sighed, changing the topic
” I’m aware, something actually happened” Leo replied.
“Really?, What happened?”
” You won’t understand, but you’ll get to understand when the time comes” he replied
” When the time comes?”
He nodded
*************
“Ok meet my friend, Marco, Marco meet my friend Valerie” Lillian said, doing the introduction and they both shake hands
They’re in a cinema house to see a movie
“Nice to meet you” Valerie said
“Same here” Marco replied as he let go of her hand
” By the way Lillian, you’re right, he’s really handsome” Valerie said
” That made me blush” Marco replied
” I know right?” Lillian replied and they laughed
” Which movie should we see?” Valerie asked, wishing Dwayne is here…
“After We Collided” Lillian replied
“Why is everyone talking about it these days as if it just came out?, I’ve watched it twice, I’m waiting for After We Fell, the part three” Valerie replied
” But I haven’t watched it” Marco said
” And I haven’t watched it either” Marco replied
“So we’re watching it, and be ready for a surprise soon” Lillian said, tuning in to the movie…
Tessa and her je.rky boyfriend’s lovestory continues and it’s overly r©mantic…
It made her start thinking of Dwayne when a kssing scene comes up
Then she suddenly felt someone sitting beside her, she looked beside her and saw him
Dwayne!, It’s like a dream and she had to blink severally
Her eyes grew big in surprise
“Grumpy Bear” she said
“Retarded” he replied, smiling and grabbing her hand
*You’re here” she said surprisingly
” Yeah, you don’t like it?” He said
” No, I don’t mean that,..I mean..I ..
“Shhhh” he hushed
She shut her lips and he placed his head on her shoulder
“Let’s just watch the movie” he said…
“So this is the surprise Lillian was talking about, silly her” she thought, looking at Lillian and Marco at the other side of the cinema
She tried to concentrate on the movie again but that’s impossible with him beside her
Her whole body started shaking with expectations
She shifted her gaze from the movie to him when another kss scene popped up
At the same time, he lifted his head from her shoulder and their eyes met
He slowly took his hands and placed it on her waist, he held her waist and continued looking at her in surprise
She stood and moved to sit on his laps, facing him
She dipped her hand into his hair and brushed it gently before rocking on his laps a bit
He’s on the moon with just that
She kept that passionate look on her face and he has an affectionate look on his face too as she leaned in
“I love you Dwayne” she whispered, brushing her hair back with her hand before covering the space left
“Your love is driving me insane, I don’t even know what I’m doing anymore, morning, afternoon, evening, night, I only think of you, you just won’t leave my head Dwayne, I just.. love you immensely, can you love me back ?” She said.
He took her hand off his lips and kssed her forehead
He’s dying to say those three words to her but…
Right now he wants more of what she just did
*************
“With the words everyone said yesterday, I’m not scared anymore honestly” Melanie said at bedtime
She’s hugging Philip on the bed
“I know, you’re strong , I know I have a strong wife” he replied
She smiled and hugged him more
” But why is Robin behaving weird these days?”..
“I’ve been asking him but he said he’s ok , I’m worried too” Melanie replied
” He never hides things from me and I’m sure he’ll never hide things from you too, so let’s believe he’s fine, maybe he’s growing up” he replied
” Ok love” she replied
” Look up” he said
Immediately she looked up, he locked their lips
*************
Dwayne can’t stop reminiscing about what happened last night
Valerie confessed to him in the most romantic and affectionate way ever
He still can’t believe they romanced in a cinema but it still remained memorable and the best
He kept smiling big while bathing
Even after taking his bath, he continued smiling till when he started eating
He loves her more than he can imagine for sure, and she’s the one she loves most in the whole world but… maybe he’ll think of a way to confess too
He’s about to call her after breakfast but his phone rang, It’s his darn dad and he never wanted to pick but he did
“Son” Fido’s voice boomed
“I’m not your son, what are you calling me for this early morning?”
” I need you to come to my house now for something important” he replied
” Something important?, And ask me to start begging Darien again?, No” he replied and hung up
” Bloody old man” he replied and left the house to take a stroll but he has barely walked five steps when two of his father’s car stopped on his sides
Four guards came out of each, making eight
He was forcefully taken away in the cars
They took him to his dad’s mansion where his dad is seated in the living room with Linda and Darien who’s smiling
“So you hung up on me , really?” Fido said
“And you had to resort to kidnapping,…I’m here now, what do you have to say” he replied
” I’m a good father, it’s now you’ll know” he replied, smiling
“Your dad found you a bride” Linda replied
Dwayne smiled shortly
” Wait..are you both trying to stage a comedy show right now?” He said
” Stop pretending like you don’t know what it means, you’re getting engaged bro” Darien said
” What!”
” Yes, the girl is from a respected rich family, pretty too” Linda replied
” The last time I checked, I’m still not ready for engagement with any freaking girl and besides that, I have someone I love madly already!” He yelled
” That doesn’t count here!, I’m your father and I have the final say!” Fido stood
” Come in” Linda said and the door opened, Whitney came in, dolled up like a model
She catwalked to them
Dwayne smiled shortly
“Her?, And now everything is ruined, how do you expect me to get engaged with a girl I hate so much…do you want to know the height of my hatred for her? If she falls into a pit together with a dog, I’d rather save the dog instead of saving her cos this girl here is worse than a bch!”
” What are you talking about?” Linda said
” Do you know how many times I caught her making out with Darien?”
“You must have seen wrong, I’m still a vrgin” Whitney said
Dwayne laughed mockingly
” You’re nothing but a freaking wench so stop talking!, And even if that’s not the case, I’m not interested in this trash cos like I said….I have someone I love with all I have!” He yelled again
” Valerie?” Darien say, standing up
“If you must know yes!, She’s the girl I love and I won’t ever trade her for anyone cos she’s my life!, So stop trying to take away my only joy from me, you guys have done enough!” He yelled and started heading out
” I know you won’t agree so easily so I’m prepared” Fido muttered
Immediately Dwayne opened the door, sedating perfume was sprayed on his face and he fell down immediately, sleeping off
Fido had actually told the guards to do that
“Take him upstairs to one of the rooms, he’ll be released any day he agrees to get engaged with Whitney.” Fido said
The guards obeyed and one of them carried him on his shoulder
“And no food and water, that’ll make him give in quickly” Darien added…
Whitney winked at him and immediately Fido left for his room, Linda stuck hands with Darien…
“Love you mum”
