Sonia is really speaking in parable, I canât comprehend anything from everything she is saying.
âLook into my eyes and tell me what u are seeingâshe said looking so weird.
âLook Sonia, I canât see anything and am confuse on what u are sayingâI replied trying to clarify my doubt.
âI love u âŁď¸ Michael, why are maltreating my feelings like am nothing to u?âshe said.
âCâmon, I never hates u either, I love and cherish u Sonia.
U are my only sister and relativeâI answered and she heaved a sigh and bent down.
âI knew it! U are so emotional myopic to un-derstand what am sayingâshe said slowly but clearly.
Sonia is ma-king me uncomfortable, how can she be beating around the bush?
âCan u tell me my offense?âI asked but she didnât said a word.
âStŠp Michael! Sonia love u, I knew that and she have done everything to show u that but u kept referring to her as ur sister.
U people are not related, free her emotional trauma by accepting her proposalâVivian interrupted as she barged into the discussion.
The girl is not invited here, but does 8t mean that they are going in the same lane or just misquoting Sonia?
âDid she told u that or u are just imagine?âI asked her almost yelling.
âShe donât nee-d to tell me, I have eyes and ears, Michael stŠp pretending that u donât know, if u donât love her just say it to her face and let her die if she canât live without uâshe added with anger and left the room murmuring.
âSonia! Sonia! Do u just heard what u caused?
This girl is now mistaking our discussion to something elseâI said and Sonia lifted her face up sluggishly from her kneels.
âMichael, believe it or leave it, she said nothing but the truth.
I love u so much and I canât control my emotionâshe said and my heartbeat increa-sed ra-pidly.
SomebŠdy should wake me up, Sonia want me as her companion?
I bec@mÂŁ speechless, my nerves bec@mÂŁ so cold, someone close to me can hear the sound of my heart beat, sweat gathered at the edge of my face and đ.
I donât know what to say about that, I bec@mÂŁ dumb and speechless.
âCan we continue this conversation later?âI asked and she smiled and starred at my eye de-eply.
âNo problem, I am expecting a positive answer from u just to save my soulâshe said se-ductively.
Hmmmm, I nee-d to rest my mind and make sure that am not dreaming.

The scene Sonia created left me thinking so de-ep that night, she truly love me?
My trip to Abuja for the conference was fast approaching, just three days left from that night.
I have to do anything to make Sonia happy before going for the conference, yes, she deserve to be happy.
I graduated from the University is because of her, she kept pressuring her father that I worthy going to the university.
I never felt dejected because of her, she is always with me encouraging and advising me. She deserve every good thing from me.
I sle-pt with one eye open that night thinking on how to make everything right with Sonia.
âUr breakfast is re-adyâthat was Soniaâs voice as my door got opened and I saw her standing with the plate of food.
âCâmon, itâs too early nah or because am a foodie?âI asked with a sleepy tone.
âThis is called breakfast on đď¸ be-d dearâshe said and win-ked her eyes se-ductively.
That sounded ro-mantic and cool, I shifted the duvet on me and sat up, the fragrance of the meal scared the sleep in my eyes away.
âŁď¸ Vivian âŁď¸
Sonia has done what she supposed to do as someone that is desperate on something.
I was very happy that night as Sonia c@mÂŁ back to be-d smiling happily, I didnât want to disturb her, I left her alone and pretended that I was slee-ping.
âSo, Michael will now think about my proposal and give me a positive reply?
I will become Mrs Michael, God plea-se donât allow Micheal to choose anyone before me ohâSonia kept murmuring in her mouth thinking that I was fast asleep.
So love can heal Sonia so fast like this?
But does it mean that Michael has accepted her or about to?
She kept soliloquizing till I sle-pt off and went to the other world.
I woke up the next morning and was alone on the be-d, where have she gone to this early morning?
I wanted to sleep again but sleep didnât c@mÂŁ, I dashed out to the sitting room to tiding it up.
âU are so ro-mantic, thatâs why Nathaniel wanted to kill himself that time u left himâthat was Michaelâs voice from his room.
âCâmon, I canât go back to my formal life, he cheated and I despised him for that.
He taught me how to be strong and it helped me to meet someone like u.
U are such a darling babyâthat was Soniaâs voice too in that same room.
Gosh! Let it not be what am thinking, how can she be in his room by this time.
Did she sle-pt in Michaelâs room or what?

âŁď¸SoniaâŁď¸
Love is sweet when u are with the right person, I never knew that my heart will find rest till I pour my mind out to Michael.
That morning, I woke up very early in the morning and preparing the fried rice and plantain. He was still slee-ping when I got to his room, what a handsome look on his face even when he is slee-ping?
âHope u like it?âI asked him as he was about finishing the meal, he smiled and swallowed ha-rd .
âThatâs why Nathaniel wanted to die when u left him, u truly know the way to a manâs heartâhe said jokingly.
âSeriously, Nathaniel is one of my pasts which I wonât like to discuss anymore.
He cheated and I despised him for that, he made me to be strongâI said and he nodded.
âThis food is amazingâhe complimented sipping his drink.
That was one of the reasons I love Michael, he always appreciate anything, no matter how little.
âHow about my upcoming trip, have u permitted me to go orâŚ..âhe tried to finished his statement when I interupted him with a surprise k!ss.
He was shocked, yes, it was written all over his bŠdy, I did it out of courage and nothing more.
I have been dreaming for a day I will k!ssthat his S-xyl-ips and it finally c@mÂŁ to accomplish that early morning.
He responded to the k!ssand it felt like a an electric shock all over my bŠdy.
quic-k k!ssthat changed my bŠdy for more that five hours.
âI love u babyâ I said and we separated ourl-ips.
He starred at me for some seconds and heaved a heavy sigh of relief.
âI love u more but one thing is complicating hereâhe said with teary eyes.
âWhich isâŚ.?âI asked with concern.
âUr parents, ur parents loves u so much and want the best for u, do u think they will allow u to marry a poor man like me?âhe asked and weakened my spirit.
âI donât un-derstand, are u poor?
No, u are not poor and perhaps, am an adult and I know what is good for me.
âNow, how can we presÂŁnt it to them.
That their servant is now d@t!ngtheir daughter?âhe said looking so worried.
âThis is not all about my parents or anyone else, itâs about âusâ together we will be husband and wife pls.
Listen, u are not a servant and never have u been, we never treated u like a servant for ones.
We took u like one of us from the day u joined us, stŠp referring to urself as a servant plsâI encouraged him and he smiled.
âŁď¸MichaelâŁď¸
She is right, they never maltreats me like a servant but an outsider remains an outsider no matter how u are respected

âŁď¸ Michael âŁď¸
I know that my heart wasnât deceiving me, I know when love speaks and when lvst is talking.
Soniaâs heart was filled with love but I was so much afraid of her parentâs reaction, it wonât work because I know her father very well.
He is a kind man but not taking anything so light with his only daughter and also his only child (Sonia).
Sonia as-sured of taking care of all these but I was still in doubt that she canât do it alone, since love is involve, we have to fight for it together.
âHow many days are u going to spend in that ur trip to Abuja?âSonia asked early in the next morning.
âTwo weeks, we have many things to deliver at the conference and that is why it will take such longâI explained but no comprehension was written in her look.
âTwo good weeks?!âshe repeated with unbelievable look.
âYes, pls bae before u know it the two weeks will goâI pleaded and she blinked her charming eye lashes twice.
âNo problem, I will know how to cope without uâshe said such a S-xy voice.
âplea-se u will okayâI added and hvgged her so ti-ght.
âI love u darlingâshe said as we disÂŁngaged from the hvg.
âI love u more and am gonna miss u babyâI reciprocated.
âŁď¸ Sonia âŁď¸
He said that he love me too! He even said that he will going to miss me!
God! Micheal love me?
Hmmm, the two weeks will be like two years in my eyes, I pray that I will survive it alone.
Vivian will be here with me but without Michael, am not complete.
I was counting the time since the trip will be next day, I wished that the day never break so he will be here with me forever.
Finally, the day c@mÂŁ and he was busy preparing in his room that early morning thinking that I was asleep but I was awoken by the noise of his footsteps.
We werenât slee-ping in the same room (bad minds) my room door was facing his and perhaps I couldnât sleep that night because I was busy thinking on how to cope without Michael for two weeks.
âSo u are going to leave me?âI asked as I peeped throu-gh the keyhole and he startled.
âSonny, u are awake!?âhe asked and dragged the door nub open.
âI couldnât sleep baby, am missing u even now that u are still with meâI said looking pitifully.
He glanced at my face and drew closer to me till our mouths met each other.
The morning k!sslanded us on his be-d, I left a loud gr0@nas his fist tŠuçhed my ha-rd n!pplero-mantically.
