Continuation…..

“You don’t mean it” I said, my eyes w¡den in surprise and shock.
How could she think of resigning.
” Why ” I said tearfully.
It really hurt for my best friend to behave this way towards me. Why do she wanna destroy how friendsh¡p coz she think I betray her.
“I wanna resign from this Job coz I see myself as your puppet and not you friend ” She said with a grimace expression.
“What do you mean by puppet ” I questioned, not believing my ears.
She came closer to me and gave me mysterious grin.
” I no what you take me for. It because am from a poor home and you are sleeping in luxury…

” What is the meaning of this ” I half yell at her.
” If I was your so called best friend. You would’ve made me your partner, not your mere secretary ” She blunted out, making me more shock than before.
” You never complained of it. I would’ve made you my partner if you ask for it and…..
She interrupted me again.
“Live that you can’t even buy me a car as a present, and you claim to be my best friend, so i decided not to have anything to do with you. I will find another Job and I can still survive. ” She blunted out.
I felt a sharp pain piercing my heart. Tears came rolling for my eyes. I was unable to speak again, I was too weak to.

“Good day, and thanks for everything ” she mocked and sway pass me.
I got to my seat and sat down. I let my head rest on the head of my chair. I feel absolutely weak.
All the word she said awhile ago, kept replaying on my head.
How could she think that way, after all we’d spent together from childhood to adulthood, she thinks this way of me.
I try to make her happy and keep her fr on getting hurt.

I remember what she told me, when we both were just ten. She said, she will never break this solid bond we both build together. She is always gonna be there with me and no one or anything will destroy our friendsh¡p.
But now she as destroy all that, and why all because of a man.
I need to get home. The pain in my heart will not let me work for the day.

I got into my car and t-rn on the ignition and drove along.
I change my mind that I won’t go home. I’ll just need to be in a quiet place now.
I took another turn and went to a garden where both Eugenia and I use to visit almost frequently, mostly on Saturdays.

~Andrea’s POV~

I saw Ivy’s car taking a new turn. I was just about visiting her in her office.
I decided to follow her and she stopped in a garden call ‘ sunny rose garden ‘.
After watching her park are car in an available corner, I too park my car in an available corner. She didn’t notice me following her.

~Eugenia’s POV~
.
I already have hatred for Ivy. She as being a wolf in a sheep cloth all along. I don’t regret ending our long time friendsh¡p,even if it pained me that my friend could do this to me.
I sat at the kitchen dinning, gulping down water from a can.
Kyle walk in.
I pretend not notice him.
” What the f-ck is happening to you this days. You haven’t tell me what is going on between you and your friend” he pored inquisitively.

I rolled my eyes away.
He sat closer to me and ruff my hair.
” Look Eugenia, you’re my little sis and if something is bothering you then tell me. What happened. Honestly I hate seeing you like this ” he solace me.
” Ivy as betray me ” I said.
Kyle eyes w¡den, he was damn shock on what I said.
” How, what happened ” he enquired with serious attention.
” she….. no you won’t understand ” I said.
I wanted to tell him, but Kyle is gonna take Ivy side after what I will say to him.

” please I need to know what happen ” he still insist.
But I kept quiet.
“Oh oh , lemme guess, not too sure is it because you have find out that Andrea love Ivy and you think she betray you ” he said, just reading my mind.
” Yah ” I replied.
” Don’t be foolish and childish. I told you before he never loved you. But you never listen to me at all ” he said.
” Ivy loves him too and he love her ” I replied.
” So why are you saying, she betray you. O don’t understand ” He stated.
” Coz she as be lying to me all this time, about not having feelings for Andrea and she went behind my back and lured him to herself ” I blunted out.
” She as not be…
” please I don’t wanna talk about this and as a matter of fact I have ended our friendsh¡p and have resigned from the job” I fired.
He stood up and shouted
” What!!!!!!! ”

~Ivy’s POV~

While walking towards a available bench in the garden. I suddenly sense someone walking behind me.
I’d turn my back and saw Andrea coming towards me.
Why is he here now, I wondered.
He ran faster to me and came to my front.
“What do you want, Jeez why do you keep sticking me “I fumed with anger, looking straight into his eyes.
” I love you Ivy…
“I don’t love you okay “I fired out at him, looking at his eyes with serious countenance.
“That a f-cking lie, you are only denying your feelings coz of your friend Eugenia ” He blunted out, coming closer to me.
I leapt back a little, I could feel is breath coz he was just a centimeter away from my face. I couldn’t be courageous to gaze into his eyes.
So I gaze at the floor.
I heard him chuckled a little.
“You can’t look me in the eyes for too long. When ever I come closer you immediately look down” he said, cupping my face in his palms and bring my face in contact with his.
I struck numb, unable to utter anything. I just gaze at his eyes that was sparking with love he had for me.
” You know you do love, you know you do” he repeated softly, his voice was so calm. He gaze from my eyes to my l-ips. He lock his l-ips in mine and unplugged them.

“I need you Ivy in my life. I can’t help my feelings, they keep growing. Am afraid if I don’t have you in my life… I can’t even to imagine that coz I we run mad. I love you so much Iv….
He didn’t complete his statement before k-ssing me again. While he still k-ss me, I slowly remove my mouth and turn away.
” No I can’t do this ” I whispered, but it was barely a whisper coz he could hear it.
” why “he half yelled.
I turn to his direction.
“What part of it…. you don’t understand….. I DON’T LOVE YOU ” I fired out, making my last statement more in a hoarsely tone.
“I don’t love your friend. How is it my fault that I have feelings for you and not your friend” he fired back, more harshly this time. He face show anger.
And for the first time I saw is anger.
“So…. What the yelling thing all about huh….. Is not a force to be in a relationsh¡p with you… when I don’t want to ” I blunted out sarcastically.

I turn to leave, not not until I heard Andrea painful scre-m.
I quickly turn back and saw him holding his chest and collapsing to the ground.
I rushed 😰 to him and squat to the floor.
” Andrea, what going on. What happening to you “I panicked, he gave loud scre-m again holding is chest.
He started breathing profusely.
My heart went into my mouth.
“Andrea please what going on, you are scaring me “I yelled tearfully.
Subsequently, he stop his heavy breathing and look straight into my eyes, but he still hold his chest.
” I have a heart disease and I might die sooner or later “he announce, I sheik in terror when he said that.
“Nooo, you can’t die. How’ll I live without you. You’re the only man I have ever love and you talk about dying” I yelled at him, absentminded that I just told him how I felt for him.
He smiled and gaze into my eyes and thereafter he chuckled and sat in a sitting position, taking me in total bewilderment and surprise.
“I always new you love me. I putted up this movies tactics, so I could made you confess. That how they do in the movies and it really worked “he said.
I was annoyed with him.
“So this is all a charade ah… and who jokes with having a heart disease “I fired.
He didn’t reply, but instead he k-ss me.

I stood to my feet and he stood up also.
” Why are you being such a pain in the ass, Yeah, you get what you want I have feelings for you, am in love with you, but am not gonna act on those feelings “I pointed out.
His countenance change and he became furious.
“I won’t force you to be with me. I will live you alone, if is what you want. But you should know you’re hurting both of us coz you feel you’ve…… Oh forget it. I’ve decided not to chase after you anymore, I don’t want you to think am forcing you to be with me”he blunted out.
He made for a move and walked away.
I watched him as he was out of my sight. Am so confuse, I don’t know what am doing.
I sat down in the bench and ruff my hair frustratedly.

~Andrea’s POV~

I got into my car, for a moment I go mad at myself with the way I behave with her.
I shouldn’t have yelled at her like that. But I have to do this, I’ve to make her realize that we love each other.
She thinks am trying to force her to be with me, I only wanna be with the woman I love.
But she see me as someone, who’ve come between she and her friend.
The only way to make her realize her feelings is to stop chasing after her. When she notice am no longer chasing after her. She’ll come to me, that as walk for many people.
I drove home and went straight to my room. Without discharging my clothes, I plumbed down to my bed.
She’ll come for me. I just have to wait. But was I wrong with the way I behaved.

#Two_days_later

I was in my office.
I haven’t heard from Andrea, was he serious. He normally calls, but I do ignore is call.
But this is what I want.
I try to concentrate on the file I was walking for and thought of Andrea.

They was a knock on the door and I permitted the person to come in.
I stood up in surprise, I can’t believe it. She’s here and why.
“Eugenia “I call her name with surprise.
