**THE BETRAYAL** (Episode 52) ...On the 10th of Jan, Mum walked into the sitting room, with a heavily coloured n drawn face. My heart leapt as i noticed her condition. “mum! R u alright?” i asked, “don’t mind me , i just recieved a very terrible news 4rm a relative” she replied n walked to her room. I ran after her. “just let me be dear ur dad will be in a better position to break the news to u” she begged. Her words panicked and got me more curious, instead of calming me like she expected. “mum u are now getting me more worried” i held her hands, staring into her eyes. My heart pounded furiously as i wondered what could make her look so sick and nervous. “mum i insist u tell me, please” i begged. “alright fetch me a glass of water, i’m very thirsty” she ordered. I ran to the kitchen, filled a glass cup with water and ran back to her room. She smiled reassuringly after drinking the water, breathed heavily “i will tell you the news i just got, my dear. It really isn’t terrible like i earlier said, but just a bit surprising. So promise me u will behave like a proper lady when i open up to u” she asked of me. “i promise i will behave mum” i managed to mutter anxiously. . . . . . . . . . . . Scroll down... . . . ....... . . . . . “Mike has a child, do u know?” she broke the news to me like a question. I couldn’t believe my ears. “which Mike ?” i asked, “Ur Mike of course” she replied, “we had to ask around, in order to get first hand information abt the family we are giving out our daughter to n ended up getting this piece of information 4rm a relative married in his Village” she explained, while i bit my lips as sadness, disbelief n pain instantly filled my heart. Mum clearly understood my condition, drew my head to her chest n patted me like a baby. “u shouldn’t feel very bad, u can still go ahead with the marriage if u love him well enough to overlook the little hinderance. The child is a girl n i heard the parents never accepted both the little girl n her mother” she consoled me, “Mum pls don’t talk like that” i cried, “how did it even happen?” i heard myself asking. “No wonder he was very anxious to marry me quickly n his mum even hid it 4rm me” i cried bitterly. I FELT PLAYED n BETRAYED, very uncertain of my future with him. The next evening.... Mike was in our house as if some1 alerted him of what we discovered. I sat up and stared back at him with a ferocious look, breathing heavily as i tried so hard to control my emotions. “dearie please calm down, the love i have 4 u is very sincere, listen to me darling, please listen to me” he pleaded nervously. “u are just a heartless. U thought u could hide such a big scandal 4rm me didn’t you, or have you cooked up another lie, c’mon spin it out” i said angrily. He shuddered as my words hit him hard, forcing him to look down remorsefully. “i couldn’t get myself to tell u abt it because i was very scared of ur reaction, i couldn’t risk losing u over a silly mistake “the girl was a mistake and i have nothing to do with the mother anymore, please believe me. It was only a one night stand i regret ever doing, please don’t judge me over it. Judge me 4 who i’m n not 4 who i was please” he begged, “i want to see the little girl n her mother. I want to see them b4 i say anything else to u” i requested. His hands shook as he tried to hold my waist, he breathed deeply n stared at me. “don’t tell me you are already changing your mind /over us/?” he asked with a coloured face. I looked away. “i’m not happy with u n i have nothing else to say till i see ur little daughter n her mum” I concluded bitterly. “this is so unfair Cyndii, why do you insist on seeing them? I can’t let you see them, i just can’t” he murmured sadly, while i forced out a dry smile. I demanded to see the girl and her mother because i wanted to get first hand information, concerning the level of relationship they enjoy with him. Moreover i really couldn’t bear standing between anyone’s happiness especially when a child is involved. I hate seeing a child grow up without a father. I know to some people it matters not, but to me it matters alot. “what you are asking of me is very outrageous, i can’t do it. Moreover they are not living with me and i can’t take you to her house” he explained seriously, “then invite her to yours or somewhere condusive for us to meet” i insisted. “meet over what?”, “and what exactly do you expect me to tell her huh?, that my fiancee want’s to see her, you are very insensitive to another person’s plight, you only think about yourself which isn’t good.” “I understood and was resonable with you when you were virtually living with Ben, why can’t you respect my feelings?, infact i can’t stand you this evening, i’m leaving” he poured out angrily, stood up and left the room, while i silently reflected over his words. “oh my God, he just accused me of being insensitive and selfish. Is he right?” i gasped n wondered. Whats next?? Story continues...... 9:00pm
