**THE BETRAYAL** (EPISODE 24) ........“don’t look at me that way nah, i just came to see Ben n also make him my friend, you know he hardly talks to people”he explained as he drew close and touched my left cheek, before leaving the room with his friend. “hope everything is okay?” i asked Benjamin with concern, immediately we were alone, but he said nothing to me, “talk to me na” i anxiously pleaded as i held his left hand. “everything is fine”he said with a dry smile, while i shook my head, “your voice dosen’t sound alright, tell me what did he say to you?” i asked, but he just smiled again& stared at me, “it’s just boy’s talk and nothing you should know” he replied coldly, before facing his t.v again, while i bit my lips, stormed out from his room, and marched towards Darlingtons room angrily. Seriously i never knew i had such courage to march towards Darlinton’s room that evening unaided. I soon got to his door and knocked furiously. But i was caught off guard when a pretty slim girl opened the door and stared at me in surprise. “eemm is Darlinton inside?” i managed to ask, but the girl just kept quiet and looked me over.Luckily Darlington soon appeared with a smile behind the girl, “i knew you will show up heheh, lynda make way for our visitor to enter nah” i heard him say. i didn’t come for a friendly visit, please leave Benjamin and i alone, we didn’t do anything to you” i barked at him furiously,whilehis smile quickly died away, as my words hit him like a disfigured 504 salon car. Lynda equally stared at me with confusion in her eyes, while Dar quickly controlled his surprise and forced out a smile again, “come inside lets discuss, i don’t understand your outburst” he said to me, but i just eyed him furiously and walked away . ‘imagine the idiot even have a girl in his room,tomorrow he will claim that she is his sister mtcheeeew” i said with a long sigh as i walked towards Benjamin’s room. “where did you go?” he anxiously asked, as soon as i entered his room, “i went to give that silly Darlinton a piece of my mind” i replied, while his face coloured immediately. “are you crazy? What did you just do?” he asked with a slightly raised tone, while my eyes equally sparkled with anger as i stared at him. “you asked whether i’m crazy right? No wahala i brought all these problems and insults upon myself” i said angrily, stood up and left his room, “no wait i never meant to insult you” i heard him plead, as he rushed up and held my left hand, but i snatched it from him and walked into my room… He knocked on my door for hours, called my phone countless times, and even sent me lots of text messages that evening, which i all ignored, because i really wanted to punish him a little, though i must confess i enjoyed every bit of it hehe… I equally heard Dar’s ‘pattern of knocking’ on my door later in the night, i equally ignored it and slept away… Early the next day, i went downstairs with my bucket to fetch water, because i earlier planned to travel home that fateful day. “hello” i heard a feminine voice greet, as i was filling my bucket with tap water,i turned instantly with a smile, and there stood the same girl i saw in Dar’s room the previous day staring at me… “what’s up dear” i replied polietly, “do you recognize me?” she asked, “offcourse i do, were you not the girl i saw in Darlington’s room yesterday?” i replied and asked, “yea i’m the girl, i’m so sorry for being a little rude to you yesterday” she apologized, while i laughed, “were you rude to me? Hmmm i didn’t even notice it, anyway it’s cool my name is Cyndii” i said to her, “thanks dear mine is Lynda” she replied, “yea i know” i said with a smile as i carried my bucket, while she blushed… “please there is something i wish to sit down and discuss with you” she humbly pleaded.I stared at her in surprise and breathed deeply, “i’m travelling today, but i’ll be back by tomorrow afternoon, will tomorrow evening be okay for you?” i asked, “yea it will, i will come over to your room” she replied with glittering eyes, which made her look even more beautiful. “do you know my room?” i asked with surprise, “offcourse i do” she replied with a smile, “okay till then” i said as i nodded in agreement, before walking away with my bucket of water, while my thoughts kept me company, as i wondered what she really wanted to discuss with me… I really couldn’t relax when i finally travelled home that fateful day, as i kept on wondering what Lynda wanted to discuss with me, but then i really had no choice, than to have patience till the next evening when we scheduled to meet… “i don’t understand you anymore, are you still angry with me?” i heard Benjamin ask, when i finally answered his phone call later in the evening.Truly i equally was so glad to hear his voice, because even though i really was angry with him, for the tone and words he used on me the previous day, i equally knew i also was at fault… Watch out 4 Episode 25
