I went home battling in anger, the face looks so terrible with the anger in me, I rushed inside without uttering any word to my mother not even greeting.
He just embrassed me and Rose was making jibe of me and people were mopping at us every soon now they will start talking, they are radio without battery.
I know he is mad but I didnβt expect such from him, he just ruined my day.
My eyes sighted at the flower he gave me, I collected it.
βWhy did you do that, you just embrassed me today, I had a dream about us last night, playing together you even sang a romatic love poem for me, the way you walked to me looking so handsome I thought it will be the way I will see you today but rather you embrassed me and ruined my day, I know you are mental disorder that you can do any awful thing but what you acted there was out of my expectationβ
I said talking to the flower.
Some minutes later, my mother came inside, I rushed and hide the flower under my bed, I donβt want her to see it before she will start being suspicious, she sat beside me.
βAngela what is it, your face is not bright at all, what happen?
βMother is nothingβ
βDonβt tell me nothing when your face is like this, what is it my daughter?
βMother you wonβt understandβ
βAm your mother I will understand, did you had a fight with the man we are yet to know?
βMother, he did the most terrible thing I hate in my lifeβ
βMy daughter I want you to understand that in any relationship thereβs always a mistake so you just have to learn how to forgive because Refusing To Forgive Someone
Is Like Drinking Poison,
And Waiting For
The Other Person To Die and donβt forgive people cause you are weak rather forgive them because Iyou are strong enough
to understand people make mistakes so you just have to forgive him and forget whatsoever that happenedβ
She said.
βThank mother for your word of encouragementβ
I hugged her.
βAnything for my daughter and stop being angry lighten up your faceβ
βAm no more angry again your words has lighten me upβ
βLet me go and finish up what am doingβ
βOkay mother, I will soon come out and meet youβ
I said and she went out.
My mother is always perfect in her words of encouragement, her words changed my mind because I was even planing not to see him for three days.
My mother really lightened up my mood, she is good in that.
I cleaned my face and went to the kitchen to help her out for dinner.
The next day, I went to market and bought all the necessary things that I think my man needed to look perfect for my parents, I will be introducing him to them.
Later in the day, I rushed out to meet him, as I was going i felt someone following, if I turned to see who the person is but I will not see the person only people that were concentrating on what they are doing, minding their own business.
The person keeps on following me.
βNo one is following me,maybe it is just my imaginationβ
I said as I stopped checking who the person.
I got to my destination, my loveβs face was not bright, his face seem sad and unhappy.
Immediately he saw me, he rushed to me and knelt down folding his two hands.
βPlease my love, forgive me, I will not do it againβ
He pleaded, crying like a kid.
I held his hand and raised him up.
βStop crying my love, I have forgiven youβ
I said wiping out his tears.
βYou mean you have forgiven and you will not leave me?
βYou are forgiven my love beside why should I leave my one true love, donβt you know that I cant live without you in my life, my life will be meaningless without you in itβ
He hugged me so tight
βI love you so much, please donβt leave me, if you leave me I will dieβ
He sounded.
βMy eyes has seen my two ears, so Angela it is true!
My mother shouted, she was really shocked and dumbfounded of what she saw and I now know she is the one that was following me.
Her shouting secard me and we rushed and resisted from the hug.
I was mopping at her speechless, my body was even shaking, I didnβt expect her to find out this way.
βAngela so the rumor is true, you are now messing around with a smelling mad man, why Angela, why, how could you?
She shouted with tears filled up in her eyes.
βMother!
I donβt even know the appropriate word to use.
βAngela how could you be messing around with a mad man that smells around sheat sheat, Angela why have you decide to bring shame to us, why Angela?
She shouted.
βMother, my love is not bringing shame to anybody rather she loves me and I love her too and I want to marry herβ
He said defending me.
βWill shut up that your dirty smelling mouth you have not brush for years, look at this onye ara(mad person) that always smells wee weeβ
I have to take courage and tell her the truth and expect the worst to happen.
βMother is the man I have been telling you about, the one after my heart, I love him so much and I have chosen him as my loveβ
I sounded even my body was shaking.
βAngela what sort of nonsense is this, is something wrong with your head, how could you love a mad man, No! This not ordinary this mad man has charm you, he has been the one you have been given my food toβ
She shouted.
βNo mother! He did not charm me, my heart and soul accept him as my loveβ
I said.
She gave me a slap that even swallow up my eyes, this type of slap that someone will slap you and you will feel this stars all over your eyes.
βIf I hear that nonsense from your mouth again I will skin you aliveβ
She shouted bitterly.
βWhy did you hit my loveβ
He shouted.
βShut up that your sinking mouthβ
She shouted and pushed him.
βYour father must hear this shameful thingβ
She shouted dragging me on my ear.
βMother leave me you are hurting me!
I pleaded.
βLeave her, stop hurting my loveβ
He shouted rushing after us.
βWill you take back your smelling body to where you came fromβ
She shouted using strick to chase him back.
He ran back without even acting violates like fighting back at my mother like how mad people normally dose.
βThis mad man has bewitched my daughter and I must cast that spell outβ
She shouted.
βMother please leave me, my ear is paining meβ
I pleaded to her but she gave a deaf ear to me.
People were mopping at us, they were laughing at us, she did not care.
She dragged me like that until we got home, we met father outside paincing all is not well with him.
βMy husband the worst has finally happenedβ
My mother shouted as she pushed me down and I fell in front of my father.
βSo it is true Angela?
He bitterly.
βSo father as also heard the rumor tooβI thought.
βWhy have you sworn to disgrace me in this community, this is so unbelievable that the only child of a respected Chife in this community is messing around with a mad man, what did that mad man gave you to eat my daughter?
He shouted so so buttered.
βMy husband when I heard the rumor I did not believe it because I know my own daughter will not do such thing, yesterday she told me that she had a fight with the man that want to marry her so this evening I decided to follow her without her knowing to see the man and talk to him concerning my daughter and what I saw left me in a stage of shock, I met her hugging a smelling mad manβ
She shouted angrily.
βFather I donβt want to bring shame into this house, I love that man and something in me tells me that he is not madβ
I said.
βWill you shut up that your mouth! You no longer have respect for your father again, you are standing in front of me confessing your stupid love towards a mad man to meβ
He shouted.
βMy husbabd this is not ordinary, something need to be done because I will not sit down here and allow my only child to be taken away, that mad man is nothing but a ritual who what lures my daughter into loving him and use her for money ritualβ
She shouted.
βMother donβt say such thing, he is not a ritualist, i love him beside is it a crime to love a mad man?
I shouted being so bold.
βMy husband you see what am telling, he has already bewitched her, we have to act fast and cast out this spell on her before soap will enter our eyesβ
She shouted.
βI Chife Omeagu will not allow his only child to use for blood money, this is really a spell, tomorrow morning you will go and call that prophetess before the worst will finally happenβ
He shouted.
I stood up and started shouting.
βFather am okay, no one bewitched me, no need of calling a prophetess, am still in my right senseβ
βWe shall see by the prophetessβ
She said.
βAm okay, no one or anything will stop me from loving him, my whole body belongs to himβ
I shouted and rushed to my room.
I lay down to in the bed crying,
βMy head is aching too much, what happened today is out of my expectation, I donβt want them to find out like this and now they think am bewitched and they want summon a prophetess, if only this people can keep their mouth shut and mind their own business things couldnβt have come out like this.
No matter what they said or do, they canβt change the way I feel about him nor stop me from loving him.
