TILL DEATH DO US APART
Episode 21.

“Hellen, who told you that there is a special way of saying yes to a man?” Asked Cathy.
“That’s what I heard from some people”
“Okay if there is such a thing, then I don’t know about that yet. All I know is if you also love the man who has shown interest in you, you simply tell him” said Cathy.
“Okay”
“So what is it that you liked most in Morg-n for you to accept him as your man?” Hellen asked.
“Mmmmm I think the chemistry was good for us. I was so free with him and he really gave me the attention I seriously needed.”said Cathy.
“Okay. I guess he is a darling to you”
“So much. I adore him”
“I wish to say that about someone.” She said.
“Don’t worry, you will soon”
Cathy and Hellen went on chatting until they they were about to sleep.
“I didn’t hear you saying goodnight to Morg-n, ia everything okay?” Asked Hellen.
“He mentioned of going to visit his uncle. Am sure he is still there” answered Cathy.
“I bet you have absolute trust for him”
“I trust Morg-n because he has never let me down. He tells me everything. All his plans. That’s why I really trust him.” Cathy said.

“You need to be careful with people who seem too open. They could be hiding aome filthy stuff from you.” Hellen said.
“Yeah I know that but I don’t think Morg-n can do anything that would betray my trust on him” Cathy said. Hi us on plus two three four eight zero five five eight eight nine one eight three on watsapp to get added to our group.
“Okay, that’s go fortunate of you” she said.
Cathy then took her phone and dialed Morg-n’s number. The number went through but after ringing for sometime, it went unanswered. Cathy called again but it went unanswered again. She tried foe the third time but went unanswered too.
“Cathy, calling more than twice doesn’t makethw phone ring louder than normal. You are just being ignored, so just r spect yourself” said Hellen who was covered in her bedsheets.
“Hellen, why are you so negative about Morg-n? I guess he is but or away from his phone. He will call me when he sees the missed calls” Cathy said.
“Okay, goodnight”
“Goodnight girlfriend”
During the early hours of the next day, catuy checked her phone to see if there was a missed call from Morg-n but there was nothing. There was not even a single message from him.
“What could be wrong?” Cathy thought to herself.
“Let me call him” she said to herself.
Cathu tried calling two times but the phone went unanswered. When she tried the third time, the phone was off.
The morning of that day, Cathy was worried as she had not heard from Morg-n since the time he dropped her at the University. What made it even difficult foe her was the fact that his phone kept on ringing without him picking.
Cathy decided to visit him at his place if they would not communicate by 2pm that day.

On that day, Hellen went to the library after attending a lecture. As she sat on her table and chair, she just saw a guy in spectacles stealing some glances at her. Several men used to steal glances at her but she didn’t pay attention to them due to the fact that she never had any space in her life to date.
Hellen looked at the guy who gave her a naughty smile. Hellen sat and started getting notes from the book which she wanted. When she was done, she got her notebook and left the library. As she walked in the pavement, she heard a gentleman voice behind her.
“Excuae me, how are you?” The guy said.
Hellen noticed that it was the guy who was eyeing her In the library.
“Hello, fine how are you?” She said.
“I have likened you to someone.” He said.
“Are you by any chance Hellen, the debator from Banani?” Asked the guy.
“Yeah that’s me. Who are you?” Hellen asked.
“I am one of those who closely followed your debating.,”
“Oh really?”
“Yeah”
“Sorry I can’t remember you, who are you?”
“Okay, next time we meet I will tell you my name” said the guy as he proceeded walking.
“Like seriously?”
The guy looked at her and nodded in agreement as he went on. Hellen looked at him as he went on.
“If this I what I will be going through because of dating, I won’t last long because I will kill someone” Hellen joked with herself as she also proceeded going to her room.

————————————————-
Around 3 pm Morg-n’s phone was still going on unanswered. This made Cathy so worried that she decided to go to his house and check on him.
Cathy booked a taxi and went to Morg-n’s home. When she got there she found Morg-n’s car parked outside his home. This was an indication that he was home. This also made Cathy to calm down a bit assuming his beloved man was fine as she was dead worried.

When Cathy got to the verandah, she heard some chatting and laughing coming from in,side. She knocked on the door at which a lady opened the door. The lady was wearing a spaghetti and a bum short.
“Hello, how are you?” The lady greeted her.
“Am fine how are you?” Cathy answered still surprised with the dress code at her boyfriend’s home.
“Am fine. Oh you have come to see your brother?” The lady asked.
“Who? Which brother?” Cathy asked confused.
“We haven’t met before but Morg-n showed me your picture that you his sister. The other time I saw you in town with himas he went to buy you groceries” said the lady.
“Me? His sister? Groceries?” Cathy kept repeating things like a broken record player.
“Come on sister in law, don’t pull a prank on me. Come in,side” said the lady.
“Honey, it’s your sister” said the lady talking to Morg-n as she entered the living room.

TILL DEATH DO US APART.
Episode 22

The moment Morg-n saw Cathy entering the living room, he became uncomfortable as he knew that he had caught red handed.
Cathy tried to play it cool but deep down her heart there was hot molten lava of anger blazing.
“Eh.. hi” Morg-n stuttered.
“Hello Morg-n” said Cathy.
“Baby remove the volume from the television so that you talk nicely to your sister” said the lady at which Morg-n did as told.
“Morg-n, please tell me what is happening here before I burst out” Cathy asked holding back her tears.
“Listen to me Cathy. Let’s go outside we talk” Morg-n said.
“No, let’s talk here. Am I your sister?” Cathy asked.
“I can explain Cathy” he said.
“Baby you mean to say she is not your sister?” Asked the lady.
“I am not his sister. He has been pretending extremely well to be in love with me until now. He was even promising to marry me.” Cathy shouted angrily as she let out her tears.
“So you mean you have been f@#$ing this lady behind my back?” Asked the lady.
“No, baby I can explain” said Morg-n.
“Okay, just wait” said the lady going to the bedroom leaving Morg-n and Cathy alone in the bedroom.

“Why did you come here?” Morg-n said.
“Like seriously you are asking me that stupid question? You have not been picking my calls and you didn’t call me back, so you thought that am that heartless to not come and check on your cheating butt?” Asked Cathy.
“Listen to mecathy, you have already complicated things here. So don’t complicate them any further. If you know what is good for you, just leave.” Said Morg-n.
Before Cathy could answer, the lady came out of the bedroom with her suitcase and in different clothes.
“My sister, i have no problem with you. He is the one who has playing us around. I can’t stand a cheating person. He promised marriage to me. He engaged me, here is the ring” the lady said removing the ring from her finger.
“Morg-n, continue with your cheating and we will see who will tolerate this.” Said the lady as she threw the ring to him.
The lady then left the house with her suitcase.
“Have you seen what you have done now? Why didn’t you stay at your campus?” Asked Morg-n angrily.
“You unbelievable! You pretended so well to be in love with me when actually you were lying. Why didnt you tell me the truth that you are already engaged?” Asked Cathy.

“Cathy, I am not your type and I will never be. My fiance you have chased stays a bit away from this town, so I needed you to lavish myself on. I can’t marry you.” Said Morg-n plainly.
“Really?” She asked as another flood of tears run down her cheeks.
“Yes.”
“Okay Morg-n, am glad you have told me the truth. But I really came to believe that true love exist because of you. You made me feel head over heels but that was all fake. Anyway, I wish you all the best in your dating life. And don’t you ever call me again” Cathy said after which she left the house.
“Damn!” Morg-n shouted as he hit the wall so hærd.
He then started gro-ning in pain after which he went to his bedroom.
He sat on the bed thinking of what to do next.

———————————————–
Cathy got to the campus really sad. She entered her room and lay in bed face down crying. She sobbed as much as she could because Hellen wasn’t yet there.
“What did I do wrong to deserve this?” Cathy asked herself.
A little while later Hellen came back from where she went to. The moment she saw Cathy lying facedown on her bed, she knew that there was something wrong with her as it was her way of sleeping whenever she was sad. Hellen went closer to her to find out from her.
“Girlfriend, what is wrong?” Hellen asked.
“Nothing is wrong with me. It’s him who is in a problem” Cathy said as she sniffed trying to clear her nose.
“What? Come on! Sit up you tell me everything” Hellen said as she helped her friend to sit up.
“Tell me everything” Hellen said after her friend sat up.
“Hellen can you believe it that Morg-n is engaged to someone else?” Cathy’s said.

“What?!” Exclaimed Hellen.
Cathy then explained everything that happened from the time she left the campus until when she got back. She told her everything that happened at Morg-n’s place.
“Can you imagine telling her stupid fiance that am his sister!” Sobbed Cathy.
“Am so sorry girlfriend that this had happened to you.” Hellen said trying to console her friend.
“I kept myself from dating from the time RAM abused me. I kept myself safe and waiting for a serious man only to bump into the pretentious scoundrel called Morg-n. Hellen, you are right in the way you lead your life. Not falling in love is the best life ever. No drama, no tears, no fuss. I will never fall in love again” said Cathy as she rubbed the tears running down her cheeks.
“Don’t say that Cathy. You are the person who made me believe that true love is possible on this wicked world. I know there are ups and downs in this love arena. You just have to be strong and get over this which am sure you will” Hellen said.
“I know I will but it’s just so hærd for me to believe that our love story with him has been shuttered just like this”
“All will be well”
“Yes. Hellen, let me warn you that you shouldn’t fully trust men. They are so cunning that you might end up having your life ruined” she said.
Hellen held her friend consoling her.

TWO DAYS LATER
Hellen was sitted on the moulded chairs in the yard of the university where there was a lot of shade from the trees. She was there are she wanted to use the WiFi from the computer laboratory which was nearby. She went on browsing several pages as she listened to country music playing in the background.
She then saw the gentleman from the library with spectacles on coming towards her. Hellen tried to pretend like she didn’t see him but deep down her heart, she was praying that he came to meet her.
Just like an answer to her prayer, the guy came directly to where she was sitted.
“Would it be so rude of me if I sit next to me?” asked the guy.
“I don’t sit next to people who I don’t even know their names” answered Hellen teasing her.
“Are you always this ready to reply to any question with an element of teasing?” He asked as he sat next her.
“Are you all always this rude by doing things without being given permission?” Hellen asked back referring to his sitting down.

The gentle guy laughed softly exposing his white teeth which glowed in the eyes of Hellen like the fresh fallen snow on Mount Everest. Hellen didn’t look directly at him as she felt uncomfortable for the reasons she didn’t know.
“Okay let’s start afresh now. My name is Lawrence” said the guy.
“Okay its a pleasure knowing you Lawrence. But where did you meet me before?” She asked.
“Oh it’s true that mtaya makoko saiwala.” Lawrence said.
“What do you mean?”
“You did something which I didn’t forget”
“Okay, what was that?”
“Sometime back you slapped a boy when you went for debate”
“Iyeee, you saw that?” Asked Hellen as she covered her face.
“Saw?! I received that slap” he said.
“Please, am so embarrassed right now.” She said.
“No, you don’t have to be because that slap meant a lot to me” he said.
“Seriously?”
“Yeah. You proved that you are a principled girl. From that time, it has been my prayer to meet you. When I saw you in the library I almost jumped out of excitement.” He said.
“Really? Thank you” she said.
“Welcome. Actually am heading to my room, can we link up this evening for catching up on our history?” He asked.
“Of course we can, as long as you promise to behave so that I don’t slap you again” Helen said as they both laughed.

“Okay, key in you line so that I can call you” Lawrence said handing her the phone.
Hellen dialed her line after which Lawrence saved it.
“See you”
“Okay, see you”
Hellen watch where Lawrence was going. When Lawrence turned to look at her, she quickly looked at the laptop.
When Hellen was done, she went to her room to share what had happened with her friend.
“Cathy, this guy is so amazing” Hellen said after telling her how they met.
“That’s good to hear” Cathy said.
“But there is one problem” Hellen said.
“What?”
“Whenever I see him, my heart skips a beat. I feel like there are some tingling things walking all over my body. When I talk to him, the feeling is just so amazing. I don’t why now” said Hellen.
“That is what we call falling in love. If you feel that when you see a man, just know that you are getting in love.” Cathy said.
“But this can’t be love, it’s too soon. We haven’t even talked about such thing yet.” She said.
“Okay. But remember that that nice feeling when you are falling in love, it also mean that common sense is coming out of you” Cathy said.

“What do you mean?”
“Love with your heart and your brains as well. Your brain will help you a lot.” Cathy said.
“Okay my guru. Am going to meet him this evening, what should I wear?”
“Is it a date?”
“I don’t know but he said chatting”
“Just go there casually. Unless if it was at a dinner, i can’t recommend anything to wear right now”
“Okay, let me go I start preparing” said Hellen going to the bathroom.
Hellen then came out suddenly which even made Cathy afraid as if she was running from something.
“What is it?!” Cathy asked .
“What about l¡pstick? Can i use it tonight?” Asked Hellen.
“So that’s why you can out running?”
“Yes, i had just remembered that l¡pstick should not be worn anyhow. So should I put it on?” Asked Hellen.
“Hellen, you can apply on your l-ips even black shoes polish, lavender or peanut butter if you want.” Cathy said standing up going to the refrigerator.
