Anticipate less…

Tessy’s pov cont
He held me to himself.. So warm

I couldn’t really think at the moment… The storm was getting heavier and rays of lightening flashed into the room, I shut my eyes

After a while, the storm reduced and rain began drizzling… Ah! This is one hell of a night

I slowly let myself loose from Gino’s grip
I shifted but he was just staring at me

“Sorry about the other day I ki$$ed u “he said

“No nee-d cause it won’t happen again… “I retorted
“Why are u here anyways? “I asked avoiding his gaze

Why does he have to look so much like Angelo,…

I have to get used to differentiating the two

“Am here cause I knew you nee-ded me.. “He said and I glanced at him

“I don’t nee-d u, i nee-d Angelo, he’s the one that sets me on with so much de-sires and “I said then paused

Can’t believe am saying this, especially to Gino, his twin!

Oh! Am going insane

“Don’t I set u on? “He asked in a hoarse voice crawling slowly to me

“No… ” I said un-der my breath

He ran his hand around my ne-ck
He drew his face close to mine

And slowly, I felt his hand un-der my night gown searching for my undie

No!!

Now am turned on

I tried to yell but words couldn’t come

My l-ips shuddered, am helpless

He smiled

“Does Angelo treat u well like I would? “He asked

“Is he R0m-ntic at all,? Does he even let u loose control? Come on, just one ride and you can compare who’s best ” he said

I shook my head..
Talk for crying out loud! I scolded myself

Motionlessly, I dodged myself and rushed to my handbag ?

Immediately I opened it, the gun slid out,
I gra-bbe-d it with speed as Gino was already on my trail

I co-cked the gun and pointed it at him

He chuckled

I bet gun don’t scare him cause he have been to prison

But I remained still

“Fine, I surrender “he said raising his hands

But he still kept coming close
I pulled the trigger with shaky hands and he got hit at his left lap
He collap-sed breathing softly

I let go off the gun… Geez!!!
Tessy, when did u turn bad??

But I still can’t believe it, I just shot Gino, Angelo’s twin, Angelo’s other half…

I was do scared, I ran to the kitchen where I had left my phone

With shaky hands, I tried to dial Angelo’s number


?

At the camp
Angelo’s pov

Today is so blessed, we had an awesome training and now There’s a little drizzling of rain ☂

Awesome,

I was walking back to my tent

I saw someone sitting at the foot of a tree alone, sobbing perharps

I approached the figure, it was Jumica
She saw me and quickly stood up saluting me severally

She wiped off her tears and tried to smile

“Why the tears? “I asked not looking at her
chat martinmartino on zero eight one eighty thirty fourteen twenty one to be added to his whatsapp group.
“Nothing personal, just decided to cry for the people dying of corona virus around the world… “She said,

Liar.

“That’s a stupid reason cause you haven’t had access to the internet in a week now since the camp started ” I said

She smiled shyly

“I was beaten by a soldier ant ? “she said and I didn’t know when I laughed

“Its okay if you aren’t comfortable sharing ur stuff with me, I don’t like talking either “I confessed and she smiled, for real this time

Soon, her eyes became teary

And tears dropped slowly

“I don’t think I can do this anymore… “She said

“What are u talking about? “I asked

“I can’t be a soldier like this… Am so messed up “she said in amidst tears

“Am gonna turn in my resignation letter tomorrow… And am gonna go ring the bell of shame too… ”

I didn’t let her finish

“Jumica, you’re the best so far… You fight and race better than those boys, you can’t just quit now “I urged her and she sighed

“That’s not even the problem sir, am crazy, am just… Ah! Forger it Sir, you are getting drenched in the rain, just leave me sir “she pleaded

I really want to just go lie down but I don’t know why am too eager to know what’s bothering her

I stared at her

“I think am… I like u alot lieutenant Angelo… “She blurted out

I was taken aback

Is it just normal likeness or is it…

“I don’t know what to call it, but am obsessed with you and that’s why I was really determined to win every challenge, cause I know whenever I look back, you’ll be smiling and happy with me”

“But forget it, cause ur somebo-dy’s sweetheart ? and everything, bye sir “she said and turned to leave but I stopped her

I was persistent, she listen to what I had to say but she punched me ha-rd and I let her go, she ran off

I can’t let her leave just cause of me

Tessy’s pov
I called again and he finally picked up ?

? “Angelo… “I muttered

“Tessy, its almost one in the morning, what’s wrong? ” he asked

I told him about Gino and the fact that he’s bleeding to death in my be-droom

“Urgh….. “He gro-an ed angrily

“He has gone too far! ” I heard him yell from the phone

“Stay put, am on my way there “he ordered and hung up

I couldn’t stop anticipating

He’s actually coming??

I waited for a while before heading upstairs

I slowly entered my room, only to see that Gino is gone, he escaped??

••••••••••Hours later•••••••
5 AM
I was scared to the bones as the living room door opened slowly

I used a blanket to cover myself as I la-id beside a sofa murmuring my last prayers ?

The door finally opened, I saw a figure

Angelo! He saw me and our eyes met

I rushed to him and hu-gged him

I hid my head on his che-st… Words can’t describe how happy I feel right now

Chapter fourteen

{The Heart ?}

?Tessy’s pov cont ?

I held him ti-ght as I began breathing ha-rd

His arms wrapped me too and I felt so much comfort

We stayed like that for a long time

He ki$$ed my hair and we dise-ngaged from the hu-g
He shut the door and carried me

I wrapped my legs around his wai-stand la-id my head on his shoulder

He carried me upstairs and dropped me on the be-d

He’s uniform was completely w£t from the rain,

He leaned forward and ki$$ed me

Then he pulled out and smiled at me before going into the bathroom and I heard the shower ? on after a while
.
I shut my eyes,
I can finally sleep

I had almost arrived at dreamland when I felt Angelo lie beside me, he pulled me to himself and I was backing him

“Have you sle-pt at all? “He asked me

I shook my head

I just feel like crying, this is much worse than I thought

My whole b©dywas aching and my head spinning

I hate u Gino, I swear to shoot you at ur head next time u try to tou-chme

I felt something hot on my cheeks, am crying…

I sniffed…

I feel so hurting inside…

Like I had been abused or something

Angelo fl-ipped me to face him

He ki$$ed my tears and wiped them off

“can you stop crying … Huh… For me? “He asked and I nodded

I wiped off my tears

“If u continue shedding tears, you’ll get a headache later… ”

He turned me and cu-mddled me, I sle-pt off in no time

?Jumica’s pov ?
?suddenly how it turns out,
Everything can change
Cause what I feel right is not the same as yesterday
The more than I imagine,
de-ep inside my heart,
Emotions that I never knew cause this is just the start… ??

?there may be something’s am missing not searching for
But that was always in the past

?? Cause I realize
There’s so much more than this
Am ready for the world
Not scared of letting go??

??Now I realize there’s so much more than this
And my heart knows its real,
pa-rt of me so long forgotten is calling and this feels like home….
Home…. Home,
Feels just like home…. ??

Am done packing and have re-moved my millitary uniforms

Goodbye childhood dreams…

I sat on my be-d,
I haven’t seen lieutenant Angelo since morning

And I just wanna see him before I go… Urgh!!

My hearts ? been aching since morning

Can I really do this??

Quit my dream just cause am easily enticed and obsessed with men??

I really nee-d to think about this

Am just fed up with the awesome feeling and later I end up being heartbroken

I nee-d to see a therapist soon

I can’t end up like this… ?

I gra-bbe-d my uniform and wore it,
I can’t just waste all the money my dad invested to make sure I join this camp, but after it, AM DONE

?Angelo’s pov ?

I waited till Tessy was fully asleep before I got up and re-moved my pyjamas

General Nestor just gave me three days to sort my issues and return back to the camp

I wore my jump suit and left the house

Time to handle busy bodies once and for all

•••••••••••••••••

I got to Faye’s house

I knocked and she opened up, immediately she saw me, she tried to shut the door but I was too quick to intrude

I pushed her in and closed the door

She was able to get on her feet

“Long time no see, weak @$$ “she smi-rked

“Tell me Faye, when are u going to get a life and stop being a meddling bi-tch, huh,? “I asked

She chuckled

“What do u want? ”

“You got Gino out of prison didn’t you? “I asked

She smiled

“So what? ”

“You’re pla-ying with fire, and ur so going to get burnt in an ugly way… ”

She laughed

“Same quote goes to u, you have no idea what’s coming to you…

“Its not just tampering with ur wife… Gino knows better… He’ll so hurt u that you’ll regret… ”

I didn’t let her finish, I gripped her by her throat

She struggled

“It will be a Shame if I killed my own blood… But it doesn’t apply to Gino “I said

I finally let her go and she slumped on the floor

” the moment… Ur wife pulled that trigger, that’s when Gino began numbering ur days… “She said

Oh, so that rascal have been here

I felt a ha-rd bl-owby my ne-ck

I almost crashed to the floor but held myself
I turned and saw Gino glaring at me
I looked at his leg, already bandaged

Faye’s handwork…

“I have something installed for ur pretty wife, but as for u

“Its high time we fight like real men “he said clenching his fist ?

I nodded, and he pulled off his shirt off

I positioned myself

I striked first and he returned the bl-ow

Faye stood aside cheering Gino

This is sick, me, fighting with my own twin brother

I have to stop this

I kicked him at the sp-ot he was shot and he growled and fell down

I smi-rked and turned but felt a ha-rd rod crash at my back, I turned, Faye

She tried to hit me again but I pushed her and she fell

Another bl-owlanded on my head, Gino

Its now two against one

We started fighting again and believe me, Faye got injured pretty bad

After the brutal fight, I left Gino pa-nting as his wound reopened and bleeding resumed

Faye was gro-an ing in pain as her whole b©dywere hurt

I left

•••••••••••••

I got home to meet slee-ping Tessy, she was slee-ping like she was dead

I had a bath and wore my pyjamas, then I la-id beside Tessy like before

Finally to get some sleep

I woke up when I felt Tessy drag my arm
She was smiling

“Come have ur lunch”

“Lunch? “I asked

“Its 1 pm” she said

I nodded and sat up, then she g@sped

My knuckles were bleeding

“Sorry Angelo… Was it during the training? “She asked and I nodded

She hu-gged me

“Let’s go eat, am starving “I said and we both went to the kitchen

She cooked spaghetti

I carried her up and kept her on the kitchen table

I ki$$ed her

Then we hu-gged ti-ghtly

“Tessy, do I love you? “I asked

She nodded

“You came all the way from the Locals to be here for me “she said and giggled

“Angelo, if you love me, you’ll do one thing for me right now ” she said

I tilted my head telling her to go ahead

“Make love to me…. ” she whispered

“Let’s eat first baby, cause am gonna take u by suprise when I start ” I said and she smiled

That’s if I have the energy ?

After eating, she attacked me, ki$$ing my ne-ck already

I brou-ght her down from my b©dy

“Go take a bath Tessy… “I suggested and she frowned

“Am I irritating you? “She asked

I sighed

“No, let’s just do this another time ” I said softly

She stood up looking angry

“There won’t be a next time Angelo, am leaving, you can go back to ur camp whatever, you can also marry a new wife from there, at least she’ll un-derstand u better ”

“Soldiers are just weirdos, both of u will give birth to weird babies and live somewhere weird…

I tried to hold her but she shifted away

“Get lost! “She yelled and walked away

TBC

What’s the problem now Angelo?
.
Gino is cooking up his last plan, what could it be??
