I sat down slowly, took a deep breath to calm my pounding heart and nerves and asked again “What plan stuff are you all talking about? Someone should start talking!!”
“Yvonne, calm down and listen and please, don’t misunderstand all this, it was all for your own very best…we had good intentions” His mother informed.
“We weren’t gonna do this, I mean, I hated the fact that you will be hurt by it but I accepted though I really missed you alot” Henry started.
“Don’t worry Henry, I will take it from here” my mother began, she paused, then continued “From that day at Grandma’s birthday party, we noticed what you two failed to understand”
“I think they actually noticed but chose to ignore it because one is afraid to tell the other about the feeling while the other is thinking he is not good enough” His father interrupted.
“Go on dear, when next you want to interrupt someone, give them a notice!” Grandma pointed out to her son.
I got confused the more and I could only stare at them like a lost goat “I … still don’t..get it, someone please clerify me!” I blurted.
“Well, I talked with your father about what happened, he saw it as well and he said he would come up with an idea that’ll make you confess your love to Henry so he would know that you too has genuine love for him and that it’s not always about money”
“He came up with a plan which we discussed with Henry’s parents and they accepted to go with the plan if it will help the two of you” My mother stopped and looked straight into my eyes.
“I accepted too, seeing that you only refused to go study abroad because Henry wouldn’t be able to come visit you there and the plan was going to send you off by force and you would come back when he is doing good in his business as well” Grandma added.
“I didn’t get involved in any accident, Yvonne, it was all part of the plan and that night you said everything that I have always wanted to hear because I too felt I’m not good for you……”
“I was the one who ended the loveless relationship I was in so you would feel she doesn’t exist in my life again and open up to me, I’m sorry for lying to you”
Henry uttered in a grumbling way and I withdrew my hand from his, I stood slowly on my feet and I was even surprised at what I did.
I slapped him hard on his left cheek when he tried holding me again “how could you hurt me so much, Henry?!” I said in a fury.
“Yvonne, please calm down, we….”
“No! I won’t calm down at all!! You all played with my heart and I almost grieved to death thinking I had…..had…lost him…oh God!…..” I trailed off slowly.
“I felt bad about it, believe me but I understand it was for your own good, I’m very sorry for hurting you but I will never be sorry for taking a part in this plan” he stated.
“Really? I can’t believe you all played with me like this knowing how emotional I can be!!” I shouted and pushed him down to the spot he was seated.
“Yvonne, listen, you have to…….”
“I think I know the rest of the story! I was such a big fool to believe each and every word he says!!” I cutted my mother off.
“No babe! Listen….”
“No! I have heard enough!!” I shouted and ran upstairs to my room, I locked myself inside.
Why didn’t I notice? This is such an expensive joke and the person that started it all is in his grave, may his soul rest in peace sha.
“Yvonne, I think you need to hear us out….just listen to everything….” My mother’s voice came.
I kept quiet and thought if I should cry or laugh, because when I look at it from another perspective, I see my long time wish falling into place.
It’s so right and so wrong. Such a stupid thing to do and a wonderful result which had broken my heart and hurt me but I do find it worth the risk.
“Your father was gonna send you home with a surprise party on your birthday and unfortunately, he didn’t make it to next week but he told me to tell you everything and how sorry he is” she continued not minding my silence.
“We were planning to keep it till your birthday but Henry felt bad and thought we should disclose it to so it wouldn’t ruin your birthday if you misunderstand it all” Henry’s father said.
I listened carefully to them and I have lived well enough with them to recognize their voices.
“Yvonne, am very sorry, please forgive me!” Henry’s voice came and a bang followed.
What do I do now?
I have no choice, do I?
I opened the door and ran into his arms. His lips met mine and everyone else in the house clapped in jubilation….🤗🤗
Where they thinking I would do something stupid? 😂
Nah Nah Nah!!
And do you know the funny thing about all this? This my bestie is my brand new husband and we are expecting our first baby as I am busy writing this story…..
Was it intoxicating?
He’s my number one fan when I started my writing journey and he’s always waiting eagerly online to give me five stars immediately I post a story 😚😚😚
He’s no longer a BESTIE that knows what I damn want! He’s a HUSBAND wey sabi.
Wish me a happy birthday and say a prayer to my father…..
Rest In Peace Dad.
Yvonne loves you!
Everyone loves you!!
END.
Luv y’all ❤️💖
