” it all started 6 years ago” he said and I quietly sat next to him.
” our family went to visit my grandfather and I was just nineteen, i was done with highschool and I was in college, my second year, i was dating a girl and her name is Amaya, i was dating her for 4 years, we met in highschool and we were dating since then, i loved her so much that i was even thinking that she is my soulmate and we are going to get married immediately I’m out of college. i decided to bring her along to visit my grandfather and grandmother for the Christmas and New year, i was really close to my grandfather and we often do things together and I really love him so much. when we arrived, my grandma was so happy to see us and she decided to do a party due to our arrival and my birthday was also coming too, January 5, i and Amaya was sharing a room because what haven’t we done, she was my first kiss, first sex, first love, surprisingly to you i had my first kiss when I was 15, the party was the next day and she was so excited to go and we got dressed the next day, the party was huge and there was lots to eat and drink. i started the party with my family and also Amanda, but almost when we were supposed to end the party, she was gone, i didn’t see her even my grandfather, there were both gone. i ignored it and when the party ended she came back and i asked her were she was and she told me that she was taking a nap in my room, i believed her because I really trusted her and I never thought of any other thing, it continued and she was always not around, she will tell me different excuses even Christmas Eve, she wasn’t there i began to have doubt, anytime she isn’t around, i won’t see my grandfather too, on my birthday, we also thrown a big party, it was my twentieth birthday, Amaya was still nineteen, her birthday was 8th of June, Amaya supposed to be with me throughout my birthday celebration but she wasn’t and so was my grandfather, my grandmother told me if i saw my grandfather but I had no idea, i decided to go find him i went to his room and at first I heard noises like someone was moaning, who was that? i knocked for a while but I no one answered, i decide to open the door and what i saw made me want to kill my myself, my grandfather on top of Amaya pounding into her while she moaned loudly. ” what the hell” i exclaimed and they both looked at me shocked, my grandfather sleeping with my girlfriend, the love of my f**king life, she quickly took and clothes and started dressing and kept on apologizing, my grandfather was stunned and just sat down on the bed, i looked at her in disgust and shame, i angrily walked out of the room, today suppose to be my birthday, one of the happiest day of my life but it was shattered, the next day, Amaya came to me and told me my grandfather forced her for s*x and she couldn’t do anything and threatened to kill her if she does not, foolish me, i believed and I wanted Justice for her, i told the police about it, i wanted to sue him for what he did to my Amaya and they followed me to my grandfather house, when there learnt that it was him, they left and did nothing my grandfather was so angry that i brought the police to arrest him and I was punished mercilessly, my back was flogged for hours and I had this scar” he explained trying to touch the scar. i touched the scar instead and he smiled sadly.
” sh-she lied to me, i found out she just wanted the money i gave her all the time, my allowance i get from my parents every week, i shared it with her, equally and she started having an affair with my grandfather for more money” he said as tears began to fall from his eyes, Rico is crying?, i hugged him and Patt his back.
” she left after that and never came back, that was when my hatred for my grandfather started, my parents knew about it but there was nothing there could do” he said and sniff, i kissed him and hekissed me back, he soft lips slowly moved with mine, i could taste the tears that fall from his eyes and mine, he redrawn from the kiss and stood up.
” that’s why I think women are just golddiggers” he said.
” not all”.
” all of them”.
” I’m not a golddigger, I’m not like Amaya, I’m different from her” i said.
” i don’t know you well bethel, we are still strangers” he said, i was shocked like seriously.
” don’t say that Rico” i said and he sighs.
” i need to be somewhere” he said and exit the room. what about all the kissing and stuff we have been doing? I’m still a stranger to him?.
Night
Rico came out of the bathroom already on his pj, he attempt to lay on the bed when I stopped him.
” couch” i said and he looked at me confused.
” what do you mean by couch?”he asked.
” you are sleeping on the couch today not beside me” i said and he chuckled.
” this is my room bethel and this is my bed”.
” we are strangers right? strangers that kiss, and almost fucked, if we are strangers then we can’t sleep on same bed” i said and he angrily took a pillow and duvet and lay on the couch.

Chapter 24
i felt something on my chest and i quickly open my eyes, i looked at Rico who was now laying beside me trying to gain access to my breast, is he serious right now. i slapped his hand which made him to groan in pain before opening his eyes.
” what was that for?” he asked looking angry.
” i was protecting myself” i said then stood up from the bed.
” what did i do?” he asked again.
” hm, you almost touched my breast”.
” it’s not like, this is the first day I’m touching it” he said and turn to the other side of the bed.
” unbelievable” i exclaimed. i feel so ashamed right now for letting him do that, it was just lust to him not to me.
” what the f” he said then looked at me.
” lust to me and not you” he said, wait a second did i just say that so loud?.
” do you think I like you bethel?” he asked and laughed.
” yes, it was lust i don’t like you bethel, i stopped liking girls six years ago, i was foolish then” he said.
” but rico–”
” seriously you like me?” he asked cutting me short.
” i was just using you, what do i really want from you? you are not my type and I’m not that shocked because girls fall for me” he said. tears roll down my cheeks as I stare at him, he looked at me.
” you are crying?” he asked.
” don’t tell me i just broke your heart”
” you Know what?” i asked.
” what?”
” fuck you and i hate you so much” i said then took my phone and ran into the bathroom. i broke down in tears, how dare him? he is a jerk, he just said it right to my face that he doesn’t like me what is wrong with me, why did even fall for his charms. i dial in Cole number and he picked up almost immediately.
” bethel” he called
“co- Cole” i murmured.
” calm down bethel and tell me what’s wrong” he said.
” i need to see you” i whispered.
” just text me the address and I will be there”.
” no no, at our normal spot” i said.
” okay” i ended the call and quickly brush my teeth before taking my bath. i wore a black jeans and a sweater, i pack my hair into a ponytail and put my phone into my pocket. by the time I was out of the bathroom Rico wasn’t there anymore, i walked out of the room and rush downstairs all the family was in the dinning room having breakfast, i don’t feel like eating right down.
” bethel” i heard my name. i turn around to look at the person. it was Rico’s grandfather calling me.
” good morning” i greeted.
” aren’t you joining us for breakfast” he asked.
” yeah, sure” i said then sat beside Rico because that was the only empty seat.
” good morning everyone” i said but it was quite apart from Rico uncles/ auntie and parents who answered. i ate from the bacon and eggs.
” so what do you do?” mark ( Rico grandfather) asking.
” I’m a journalist” i said but the table ended up laughing. what’s so funny about that?.
” who are your parents?” he asked again.
” Mr and Mrs Albert Anderson” i said and Mark nodded.
” at least Rico married a girl whose parents are rich unlike Amaya” mark said smirking, which earn a big groan from Rico.
” it isn’t about money, Amaya is just so shameless to follow an old man like you”.
Rico POV
” what the hell” what did she just say. everyone began to side talks immediately bethel said that.
” silence” grandpa exclaimed.
” you are talking about shame huh?” he asked.
” we shall see” he said then walked to bethel seat and whispered.
” it won’t be shameless when you are screaming my name on my bed” he said then walked away. he wouldn’t dare, not bethel, not her, i swear I would kill him for even laying his hands on her. bethel stood up immediately and walked away, i need to make sure she doesn’t go close to that old man because if he gets her, she will end up just like Amaya. i stood up and followed her immediately. i saw her took a key to my Bugatti centodieci. my baby. she entered the car and I quickly ran to her.
” get out of my baby” i said she roll down the glass.
” why should I? we are husband and wife, what is yours is mine” she said and started the car.
” no bethel, this car can buy you, so can you just do me a favor and get down you can use the rolls Royce sweptails” i said but she ignored. she drove off immediately leaving me standing.
” fuck you” i yelled.
bethel POV
immediately i saw Cole, i hugged him tightly.
” are you okay bethel?” he asked as we redrawn from the hug.
” no” i said as i sniff.
” what has Rico done to you?” he asked.
” it’s not his fault” i said and we both sat down.
” i think I’m falling for Rico, Cole” i said as i break down in tears.
” Rico?” he asked looking so unbelievably.
” Cole” i called.
” you promised Bethel, you promised that you won’t fall for him” he said.
” you made me promise”. i said
” you agreed to it” he said.
” i didn’t cause it Cole, it is just my emotions, i can’t help it” he bit his lips so hard before using his hand to rub his hair.
” so what did he say after he found out?” he asked. another tears fell down my cheeks.
” he-he..”
” he was using you right?” he asked cutting me short.
” yes” i whispered.
” i hate that guy so much”. he said before kicking the wall.
” he is treating you like other girl’s bethel and I hate it so much” he said.
” I’m sorry” i Said and he looked at me.
” do-don’t apologize, i love you okay, if he doesn’t love you, i love you” he said and I nodded, he pecked my forehead before hugging me.
