?Alex pov?
“Am sorry dad but I wont be able to make it” I said on the phone
” But you know this trip is for us to spend quality time together ” My father said
” I know dad but something urgent came up , Just have fun with Francis” I said
” Fine then” He said and switched off the phone.
I sighed as I sat on the chair, Its been a while since she has locked herself up in her room.
I was so happy when she watched the show and believed that it was true, More happier when she trusted me and kssed me.
But reality came and It struck us both.
She is now engaged to my cousin Francis and I am married to sarah.
In the past my parents and her parents had been the hindrance to our love and now its the people we are with that us stopping our love.
But I just cant sit back and let her go for the second time
we’ve wasted seven years of our life apart.
I still love her, Always have and I know that she feels the same within her
I wont let her go, This time am old enough to Fight tooth and nail for our love
And Thats what am going to do, I thought
Just then my phone rang and It was sarah.
Feeling angry I picked her call ” Where are you? I heard that you didnt go with your father and Francis ” She asked
” Yes I didnt, There is something urgent I have to attend to” I said
” Thats odd, I just asked your chief secretary If there is anything You have to do but He said your free, You dont have anything Important to do” She said
” Were you spying on me?” I asked angrily
” Of course not, I just had to know why You are not with your cousin after all getting his affection is what is important, That was why you invited him right?” She asked
“Yes But this is more important” I said
” Tell me! where are you ?” She asked
” Why ask?”
” Am coming over to keep you company ” She said
” I dont want your company Sarah, Just stay home with mom” I said and switched off the phone
” A real pain in the ass” I whispered to myself
” She is only worried about you” On hearing Melanie voice I turned to find her by the stairs starring at me
“Melanie!”I called as I went over to her
“Is she always like that?” She asked
” who?”
“Sarah , From the show they portrayed about our supposed love story, I feel that Sarah is very clingy and she loves you” She said
” The clingy part might be true but the love part,Am not so sure, Lets not talk about Sarah, Lets talk about us” I said wanting to hold her but she moved back
“Am really hungry, What do you have here” She said heading to the kitchen
She was avoiding my Question, well we will eat for now but that Wont stop me from asking her that question again.
I went to the kitchen and found her chopping some Lettuce
“Would eating Salad be enough for you” She asked
“Yes” I said standing by the door way watching her.
She was still chopping it when she spoke again
” Francis taught me how to make it, At first I had got it all wrong But with his care and Attention, I Became prefect” She said.
I felt that she was intentionally talking about Francis to avoid any conversation with me
Well If she thinks that I wont pursue this conversation to the very end, Then she is wrong.
I sat on the chair and watched her as she cooked
She was half way into cooking and she was about putting in the peas when I held her hand
” your allergic to that” i said
“That was before not anymore Alex ” she said and to prove her point she ate one right in front of me
“All done, Lets dig in” she said as she placed the food right in front of me
“Thanks ” I said as I began to eat
“Francis taught me how to do many things, Maybe if am still here, I can make something else for you” she said
This is the second time,she would be mentioning Francis name
” And did he teach you about love too” I asked and she stopped to stare at me
” Just as have taught you about love, Did Francis teach you that ” I asked
“We weren’t talking about love Alex” she said
” Yes we aren’t because you are avoiding it” I said
” Its for our good, We cant be together anymore because you are with someone just as I am ” I said
“Someone I dont love, have only loved you Melanie”
” lets just eat” She said trying to avoid it again
” not this time Melanie, You wont be avoiding me, Tell me how you feel about me, Tell me!” I said
” I dont know okay, I just dont know, Am very confused right now”
” The only sane thing in me is that I cant be with someone else, Francis is the reason why I came here and because of that I will stay with him till the end ” She said
“Just answer me with this question, Do you love him” I asked
She starred at me for a while before looking away
” That is none of your business”
” it is melanie!!! Just give me a answer”
” I…I dont know Anymore, Am Just so confused” she said and I felt relieved
At least she didnt say that she loved him.
“Do you love me” I asked her and she starred at me
“Dont ask me that Alex , Dont” She said getting up
I pushed my food away and went after her
She was climbing the stairs when I got to her
” Just leave me alone Alex” She said trying to push me away
” No,I wont,If its so hard for you to say, I will say it”
” I love you Melanie, Have always loved you, Always” I said and pulled her to me kssing her lips……
He kept on kssing me and though have promised myself not to let him do it again
