❣️IT WASN’T LUST ❣️
🌹EPISODE 26🌹
BEN ‘S POV
💏💏💏💏
This is just like a dream come true to me, I can’t believe that the girl that I’m madly in love with is lying just next besides me. I feel my heart racing in full speed as I pondered within me if holding and cuddling her will make her angry and spoil this wonderful evening or not as if she was reading my mind, she just turned around with a smiley face and said.
Benny are you asleep already? She asked
Nope I’m still awake, do you need anything? I asked her.
Not really but I found it uneasy to sleep. Can you tell me stories or sing me to sleep? She said making a puppy face.
Wow! I was so lost about this adorable lady besides me, who will resist such offer from a beautiful girl? Of course, I will.
Just then my phone rang. Oh my gosh! Who could be calling by this time of the night, I ignored it. Two seconds later, it rang again I wanted to switch it off without even bothering to know who the caller is but Josy asked me to check the phone first and know who the person is who knows the call might be very important.
When she said this things, I felt like sweeping her off her feet and gave her a very deep passionate kiss. I was at first scared that she might be angry that my phone is ringing at this time of the night and also think about something worst but hear she is urging me to pick my call with such a sweet voice
Are you gonna just mop at me Mr or pick your call because is the third time is ringing already. She said with a smile which brought me back to reality
I picked my phone knowing the person that’s calling I quickly switched it over to video call
Hello darling, whatsup? I said with excitement in my voice. Just then Josy excused herself and went to the bathroom
Caller: Oh my jess… She’s cute….. Whose she?
I smiled, Thanks dear but stop poke nosing already… So why did you call I quickly changed the topic so that she won’t ask me further question.
Just then, she started crying and that was when I realized that something must be odd somewhere no doubt she called at this time of the night knowing fully well that it’s our midnight
She tried to Smile but the Smile made more tears to stream down her face. I myself is even becoming more panicky at this time. My mind drifted to many terrible things and I just screamed…… Common Katy dear what’s wrong you’re already getting me scared
I didn’t realized that my voice was so loud which made Josy ran out from the bathroom and rushed to my side asking me what the problem could be.
Katy was still sobbing when she managed to say amidst tears
Caller: My mom has finally gone to rest, she died 2hours ago….. I just called to let you know…. Bye I love you
With this she ended the call… Before I could even say love you too or take heart
I sobbed silently recalling how sweet, loving and caring her mom is to me whenever I visits them. Though she partial hurt my mum but is not entirely her fault so I don’t blame her that much because I have accepted her already and learnt to leave with it.
I don’t even know that I’m crying already not until I noticed Josy’s hands brushed off the tears that fall helpless on my face and I felt an electrical shock within me as her hands wiped my tears and without thinking all relenting, I pulled her to me and hugged her so tight, and I was so happy when she wrapped her hand round me and allowed me weep on her shoulder like a kid.
JOSY’S POV
😵😵😵😵
I’m not sure what I’m actually doing right now, when his phone rang I was very upset, I knew that it is one of his numerous girlfriends that must be calling him, I h@ťěd him and h@ťěd myself even the more for stuping so low to be spending the night in his house using rain as an excuse for my stupidity.
Well I don’t blame him much because God created him on a Sunday morning and he is too perfect and handsome so is no fault of his that girls should be running and throwing their shameless self at him but I am mad at him because he should have at least have some respect for me by switching off his phone but instead he left it on so that I will be humiliated.
All these thoughts were running through my mind remembering how I allowed myself to be kissed by him even added to my vexation and I wished I never deed…. Well I composed myself as much as possible making sure he didn’t notice my been upset, I put on the best-smiles ever and calmly told him to pick his call.
One part of me was yelling at me and telling me how stupid I am until I saw him picked the call and say hello darling
I felt like I’m been stabbed and I can’t hide my anger and Jealousy any longer so I had to drag myself to the bathroom….. I know I had no business there but is better I stay there so that I won’t hear ben’s conversation with his girlfriend.
While in the bathroom, I put on the tap and washed my face, I felt the water splashed through my face which helped me to calm down a bit. I covered the toilet and sat down with my head clouded with so much thoughts
This is actually one reason why I h@ťě falling in love (heartbreak) I took a deep breath as I thank God that I have not even accepted his proposal, I will simply tell him that the kiss we had meant nothing and go home first thing tomorrow morning without ever coming back.
I brushed a few tears away while I pondered on the reason why I had to shade tears because he picked another woman’s call. What the hell is wrong with me, he is not even my boyfriend yet, I tried to chastises myself just then I heard Ben screamed and I rushed to him. It was then I saw whom he was conversing with.
She’s a beautiful girl, probably American about the age of 19or 20. One of her white chick’s I thought. I looked more at the girl and she is crying so is Ben….. The girl finally ended the call with I love you and I felt my heart tweak, I saw clear Jealousy within me and I know my instincts are right. I wanted to go back to the bathroom and cry when I heard Ben murmured I love you too.
That’s the confirmation and my heart was yelling out in pain. I finally had to love but now I’m been hurt before starting, I h@ťěd Ben even more and before I knew what was happening he has wrapped his hands around me and fall on my shoulder crying like a baby.
I just sat there looking at him, how cute he is even while crying. I was supposed to push him away but unfortunately I was glued to him and felt like crying with him also.
I felt his pains with him and sheepishly and out of my consent I felt my hand raised up and wrapped around him which made him even cry more.
I am so stupid to allow my emotions cloud my right of resenting him but here I am drawing even more closer to him.
I closed my eyes and sniffed his scent badly knowing that this will be the last I will be near him so I want to keep this memory for ever
My 2nd mum is dead Josy, She’s fun to be with and treats me like a king when ever I traveled to USA. Though she stole my dad from me and my mum, but I still don’t hold it against her is not her fault you know. Oh Susan! Why do you have to die!!! What will Katy do now, who will Katy go to now?
Ben continue saying this though I don’t understand much but I know he just loose some dear to him.
After a while… He stood up and went to the bathroom
I lay on the bed with my eyes closed hoping that my thoughts about him are wrong.
