Happy New Month ❤

Recap:

Digiola keeps on having the flashbacks...... and her friends; in particular Demmie notices something odd about her. But to forget that the last chapter talked about her refusing to get down from the car so as not to visit an "anonymous..... Demilade had an hemophobic attack and Layo notices that her commerce test script was inside her bag unmarked; which is surprising as she just did the test that day.

Dear ex,
My life was all black and white
Like sunshine and rainbow, you came to make my life glamourful
Loving you is an understatement
Loving you was also my biggest mistake
It hurts so much that I can't forget about you
It pains so much that after everything I can't find myself hating you
From the kisses we shared to the night we spent cuddling
The movies we both watched, the sound of your melodious voice
I don't know what went wrong even till date
You were my first, you were my everything
I thought you'd be the one to walk me down the aisle
I thought that I had finally found Mr. Right
Guess I had always been wrong
Please just tell me how to stop loving you because I can't
I still find myself drawn to your magnetic smile
My heart still skips a beat when I hear your name
Alas! It's all over now
I want you to remember that I've always loved you and always will
My love, my love, my fearless love
I'll not say goodbye

She wiped the stray tears that had formed on her cheeks and sighed. At this point, she didn't know what to do again. It was useless holding on to something that doesn't need you. She folded the paper neatly and kept it back carefully, exactly where she had met it and made her way out, hoping that he wouldn't notice that she had been snooping around.

"GOOD FOR NOTHING MAN, YOU HAVE A WIFE, A SON STILL YOU GO ABOUT CHASING GIRLS THAT YOU ARE OLD A ENOUGH TO FATHER.... USELESS THING." Somto heard his mother scream from across her room. He shut his eyelids in frustration, for crying out loud! He was studying for his accounting test.

"CRAZY FELLOW, YOU CALL YOURSELF A WIFE YET YOU DON'T DO YOUR DUTY.... AM I NOT A MAN, NOW YOU COMPLAIN NOW AND THERE THAT..... " he couldn't hear the rest of his sentence. It got interrupted by the sound of a shattering glass and he needed no soothsayer to tell him what had happened.

"KILL ME OO,  KUKU KILL ME, I KNOW I'M THE FIRST WOMAN TO GET MARRIED SO KILL ME YOU THIS.... "

He had heard a enough, he took out his headset and just like he had always done. He blocked out the voices.

Though, he could still hear the faint voices.
His father going on and on about how he has needs as a man.

His mother cursing the fact that he chases girls young a enough for him to father.

But at that point, he could care less. All that mattered was the melodious voice filled in his ears.

The voice that spoke peace, one that he hoped will one day become a norm in his house.

**********

She marched into the living room, in a furious manner with the driver at her back trailing in fear but she could care less! The only thing she had in mine was to give him a piece of her mind.

As she sighted him sitting on the chair, his eyes glued to the screen, she faked a cough to alert her presence. Immediately, the latter looked up and his face broke into a smile.

"Angel....." he beamed.

"Dad, you know what you did, don't try to pretend." she snapped.

"Digiola", her dad said in a soft voice. Of course, he was no dummy, he knew what she wanted to say. "you know that no matter what, she still remains your mother, the one who brought you...... "

"I KNOW," she interrupted with a scream, her face were tearful as she tried to fight back the tears. She hated being reminder of that fact. "I'm sorry. " she apologized, as she realized what she had just did. "it's just that it's so hard that someone you call your mother will.... will... actua.... actually. " her voice broke down at the end as she couldn't bring herself to recount that experience.

Hey father who had noticed her change in attitude got up of his seat and gave her a reassuring hug, which he was sure she needed at that point.

"It hurts you know." she sobbed.

"everything's gonna be okay." her father assured.

Grabbing a hold of herself, she freed herself from the hug. She was grateful for it though. "I'll go freshen up."

"sure."

She ran all the way up the stairs to her room. The first thing she did was to go over to her drawer, she brought out an old picture. A picture of a young beautiful woman who looked like a replica of her with a little girl by her side, they were both in matching outfits smiling widely at the camera.

She felt her heart clench at the picture, as much as she tried to deny. She knew that she missed her and she hated herself for missing her.

********

Her mother listened with an expressionless face as she watched her daughter ramble on and on.

"what do I do now, where do I start from! Mummy, it's all crumbling when it has not even started. What's the use now."

Her face broke into a smile as she recounted a message her mother had once told her, one she knew that her daughter needed at this point.

"Moralayo, " she started. "When things go wrong as they'll someday will and the road you're trudging seems all up hill. When you want to smile but you have to sigh, rest, or you must but don't quit. Life is filled with twists and turns, as everyone of us sometimes learns. And many a failure turns about when might have won but he stuck it out. Don't give Up though the place seems slow. You may succeed with another blow and you never can tell how close you are. It may be near when it seems so far, so stick to the fight when you're hardest hit. It's when things seems worst that you mustn't quit."
