STORY: THE TRINITY PART 8

The Trinity (My heart)

Episode 8

The evening breeze was so gentle that David and Cynthia imagined themselves falling inlove the most. Of course David was dating Christabel but the feelings of love wasn’t there. He thought of how he will breakup with her. “But is not gonna be easy” he thought as he was staring at the ceiling.

Meanwhile, Cynthia laid on her bed happily with a pure mind and body. She knew no man but David which actually was her first date. She believed David had no other woman in his life too. She couldn’t imagine being heartbroken like what she had been hearing from her friends. “God please never allow me experience heartbreak” she pleaded in thought. Suddenly, Mr Basi her father opened her door once again and saw her lying on the bed.
“Good evening, Daddy” Cynthia greeted looking at him from the bed.
“Evening my angel. Have you taken dinner?”
“Yes, Daddy”
“Okay, good night” he tried to closed the door.
“Daddy?” Cynthia interrupted him and stood up from the bed. She walked closer to him.
“Any problem my dear?” the father asked.
“No, Daddy. Is just… Is just that….” paused looking at her fingers which she was rubbing together.
“Is just what?” the father asked looking at her steadily.
Cynthia looked up and said, “Daddy, would you please make peace with sir Anthony?”
“Never!!” the father shouted which startled her, therefore she adjusted backward. “Not until he surrenders all the positions!” he added and banged the door closed in anger.
Cynthia was disappointed. She looked back in a hurry when her fatheropened the door again. “And i must not see you in his house or any member of his family. I hope i have made myself clear!!” he banged the door again.
Cynthia could feel her eyes wet with tears. She began to miss her late mother. “I know Mummy, wouldn’t have been insupport of all these things” she murmured bitterly and sat on the edge of the bed.

THE NEXT DAY
Precious found herself in Cynthia house again. Mr Basi wasn’t at home. She walked to the kitchen where Cynthia was preparing lunch.
“O-girl how e-dey be nah?” Precious spoke in pigin English.
“Welcome, Madam” Cynthia smiled.
“What’s the latest gist?”
“About what” Cynthia asked.
“About you and your lover boy”
Cynthia smiled. “He proposed” she said without looking at her.
“Seriously?!”
“Yes”
“And what did you say?”
“I accepted him”
Precious looked at her. “You shouldn’t have accepted him immediately” she said.
“I know but hearing him saying the way he feels about me which is also the same way i feel made me accept him”
“Hmm… Feelings of love” Precious concluded and began to help her.

No sooner did Christabel want to visit David since their houses weren’t far from each other-few kilometres away.
“Are you really sure you want to see me?” David asked Christabel on the phone.
“Yes, don’t you want to see me?” Christabel asked.
“No, not that..just that..” he paused.
Christabel was beginning to since something. “David are you okay?” she asked.
“I’m okay, you can come if you want”
“Alright, i will be coming tomorrow. I love you!”
The line went dead

THE NEXT DAY
Peter looked forward to see Cynthia again while Precious wished she had David as a boy friend due to his fair complexion and handsomeness.
Cynthia headed to Precious’s house, she saw Peter coming out of the house.
“Hi, girl” Peter said.
“Good evening, peter” Cynthia greeted.
“You look beautiful”
“Thank you” she began to move.
“Precious is not at home” Peter said which made her turned back.
“Where is she?” Cynthia asked.
“According to her mother, she has gone to the market”
“Okay, i should be going back then” she pushed forward.
“Cynthia!” Peter called and she stopped. He waked closer to her.
“May i have your number please” Peter requested.
Cynthia stayed quiet for a moment without knowing what to say. “Why do you need my number?” she asked looking at him.
“Is just for friend sake” Peter replied and brought out his big phone.
“Sorry i can’t give you my number”
“Why?”
“Precious won’t be happy with me” Cynthia concluded..
