**THE BETRAYAL** (EPISODE 31) ...... we had fun and pleasure that night. I barely had returned to my room the following morning, when Amara knocked and entered with a very sad n tired look. She really looked that moment like a night worker who worked without rest all through the night. She wearily fell on my bed with a sigh. I sat beside her, with both hands on my waist and stared curiously at her with surprise. “it’s over between David n i” she muttered, while i gasped in shock, “what did you just say?” i heard myself ask “my relationship with David is over” she announced again, i just breathed deeply and kept quiet for few seconds. “how? What exactly happened?” i calmly asked, “i confronted him last night about his ties with a cult group, he tried denying it but when i continued with my questions, he barked at me almost hitting me in the process. I gave him a condition to tell me the truth or kiss our affair goodbye, yet he ignored me till this morning when i left the room” she explained unhappily, while I smiled and held her left hand. Even though i really never supported her relationship with that boy, i knew my friend really do love him, and so i had to be cautious and neutral when advising her. I looked at my wall clock which read 7:30AM, bit my lips and stared at my friend. I planned going to school that fateful day but with the look of things i knew i might skip lectures again. “girlfriend are you very sure about your decision?, you are already into him which is a fact you can’t deny” i asked with a smile, but she kept quiet and pretended as if she didn’t hear my words. Someone knocked on my door seconds later, which made me move my attention to my door. I waited b4 finally opening my door, where a nervous looking David greeted me with a forced smile. “is Amara with u?” he calmly asked with a searching look @ first I truly was at lost on what to reply him, but when i finally made up my mind to deny ever seeing her that morning, Amara appeared behind me and shouted at him. “what are u doing here, leave me alone” she barked b4 shutting the door on his face. Instead of leaving, he surprised us by knocking again for almost an hour n it really appeared as if he wasn’t ready to leave my door alone until it was opened. I really was uncomfortable and a bit sad, because I already have missed lectures for that day and still trapped in my room all because i was standing by my friend. “i think u should have a little chat with him, you never can tell what he wants to say to you” i finally whispered to Amara when i couldn’t endure his knock anymore. She tried to argue, but i gave her no chance, stood up and opened my door for David who quickly rushed to her side. I never believed nor dreamt that someone like David could ever do such a thing for a girl, “is that what true love really means or is he just trying to defend his pride??” was the question i keeping asking myself as i left them alone in my room to fetch a bucket of water downstairs……. I ran into Lynda when i finally got downstairs. The events of the previous evening instantly came racing into my mind n i glanced at her injured beauty with a heart filled with pain. “hi dear are u going 2 school?” i asked. “no i’m going over to a friend’s house, i’ll stay there till i recover” she explained with a weak smile. I truly was touched. “that’s a nice idea dear, i’ll keep praying 4 u” i muttered with a friendly pat on her left shoulder. She nodded with a smile n left without another word. With a deep sigh i went to the extreme end of the backyard where the second water pump was located and equally where Darlington and his friends do stay most of the time, smoking and doing some weight- lifting exercises, well since i badly needed water, I slowly went there with a fast beating heart n just like i feared Darlington n two guys sat beside the water-pump discussing seriously. I greeted but they ignored b4 quietly fetching water 4rm the Tap. “i will be in ur room later” i heard Darlington mutter with a serious look as i carried the heavy bucket of water i fetched. I said nothing to him, though i managed to force out a smile, which i knew he interpreted wrongly. I slowly returned to my room with my thoughts focused on how to end his disturbance. “oh Lord please don’t let this fire burn Ben as- well” i prayed as i stepped into my room. Perhaps it was my thoughts that blinded me or my fears that clouded my sight and prevented me from seeing Amara and David engaged in a scuffle. But It was to late to avert disaster as David falling body crashed on me without warning. Chai!! My head smashed on the wall, while his elbow broke my lips. My bucket instantly fell, watering my room in the process. Amara screamed in panic….. EPISODE 32 Coming soon... StayTUNED....
