**THE BETRAYAL* (Episode 37) ..........Dawn arrived quickly than i expected. I tossed uneasily on Benj’s bed. “how do i face Mike today?” My strength failed me. I stayed away 4rm lectures{school} that fateful day, and stayed indoors with Benjamin, who really was very glad to sacrifice his lectures because of me. We had a wonderful time playing, kissing and joking, but deep down i still felt very uneasy. I kept thinking about Mike and his next line of action, since i failed to show up in school. My heart leapt each time i heard someone knocking on a neighbour’s door, fearing it was him knocking on my door. “hope you are alright dear, you look very anxious and uneasy?” Ben asked numerous times that fateful day. But instead of telling him my plight i preferred to keep it firmly sealed in my heart. “i can’t believe you still havn’t told him about mike, upon everything i said to you yesterday, seriously you are no longer behaving like the cyndii i know, are you under a spell or are you still habouring some form of affection for that boy?” Amara asked suspiciously, when she came into my room later in the evening, after returning from school.. “you won’t understand” i murmured and bit my lips, “yes i can’t understand your behaviour anymore, you even skipped lectures because of that boy nawao” she replied and shook her head. “i know what i’m doing okay, you are just misunderstanding my actions dear,” i murmured. She shrugged and changed the topic, while I instantly felt relieved, because i really had no strength to argue with her. However when Benjamin confronted me about Mike later in the night, i knew my best friend had snitched on me. I felt very terrible, weak and lost, but what pained me the most was Benjamin’s words, which really injured me immensely. “i never knew you could keep such information away from me. I never believed i will ever hear such news from someone else, why Cyndii?, why??” he asked after repeating all Amara told him. I swallowed hard and looked away, with an injured pride, totally ashamed of myself. “i can’t even imagine you stayed away from school just because of him” he muttered, “baby i kept it away from you because i didn’t want to involve you, i know how upset you will be if i tell you such news” i explained truthfully, but for the first time he choosed not to believe me. He stared at me for a while before looking down. “seriously i don’t know what to believe, how am i even sure you havn’t been meeting him secretly, perhaps it was your friend’s conscience that made her open up to me even though i suspect she tuned down the whole thing” he murmured. I gasped in shock, grabbed his right hand strongly, forcing him to bring his eyes back on me. Benjamin has never doubted, suspected, nor spoken silly words to me, but that moment it appeared as if i lost all his trust. The most painful part of it all was that he accused me unjustly and kept staring at me as if i was a half penny whore. “my God, why did Amara do this to me” i wondered with a weeping heart, totally lost, dejected and heartbroken… “good night” Benjamin muttered, snatched his hand {from my grasp}, and turned his back on me, “where are you going?” i asked stupidly, “to my room offcourse” he replied coldly, “spend the night here with me dear?” i begged, “i don’t think it’s necessary, you never wanted me to get involved, so it’s better i stay away so that you can clean up your problems alone just like you wanted. You can notify me when you are done” he murmured and left my room. “dear your behaviour is punishing me, don’t leave me here alone” i begged as he left. I never knew Benjamin could ever get so annoyed with me in such manner, and It just looked as if my life was crashing in a terrifying manner. I spent that night tossing on my bed and crying. I woke up the next day emotionally weak, pertubed and uneasy. Amara showed up in my room by 7:55:24AM, I felt like murdering her, but had to control myself because i didn’t want to create a scene with someone so vulgar. “why the drawn face huh?” she asked and sat beside me with concern. I sighed and looked the other way, “snitch” i hissed quietly, “hmmmm okay, now i understand the monkey face you are showing me. Offcourse i told Benjamin because you have no reason for hiding Mike’s disturbance from him. You won’t understand what i did for you, hahaha you can thank me later shaaa” she patted my back and laughed. “this is no laughing matter, your big mouth just cost me my relationship” i murmured, “abegi make i hear word jare” she replied and fell back on my bed, “i’m very serious, Benjamin almost pounced on me yesterday” i complained bitterly. To my surprise, my dear friend laughed out loud. “anyway i don’t blame you, i caused everything by revealing my problems to you” i added sadly. She sat up and stared at me seriously.....
