#OMNISCIENT_POV
Here at Mama Nneka’s Restaurant, Both Peter and Angelina sit and devour a plate of Mama Nneka’s special dish, Each of them steals a glance at each other, wondering what the other is thinking.
Minutes later, They finish their meal and begin to talk softly about the years they’ve spent separately..
.
Peter ➡ My.. You’re multi talented. You deserve all the blessings coming your way.
.
Angelina ➡ Thanks.. You’re doing great yourself… Your movies are so t©p notch. I’m always eager to watch any of your new films.
.
Peter ➡ Really? Well we’re working on a new one.. But I’m not sure when it’s going to be re-ady.
.
Angelina ➡ Oh.. I can wait…. So.. Are you.. seeing.. someone?
.
Peter ➡ Uh… Yeah.. Her name is Bianca.. She’s an actress and we’re engaged.
.
Angelina ➡ ENGAGED?
.
Peter ➡ Yes.
.
Angelina trembles as she painfully hears that final statement from Peter, She bites herl-ips and clenches her fist trying not to show her jealousy… She ba-rely maintains a smile on her face but de-ep down inside her.. She’s boiling with rage..
Deciding that she wouldn’t get emotionally hurt alone, she pla-ys the jealousy card on Peter as well.
.
Angelina ➡ Oh.. That’s nice… Well I’m seeing someone as well… His name is Collins.. He’s quite a thri-lling guy.
.
Peter ➡ Really?
.
Angelina ➡ Yes..
.
Peter flin-ches within almost letting out an insult.. He pretends to cough and excuses himself… He feels hurt on the inside as he heard Angelina saying she’s also with company as well.
.
Peter ➡ So… When did you guys meet?
.
Angelina ➡ We met a month ago…He moved in on me so fast and bold.. He’s quite the man.
.
Afterhearing that, Peter’s look changes into a small frown as he clenches his fists.. He glares at Angelina who also glares back at him.. Silence fall between the two of them for a while.. After a short moment, Peter confronts Angelina about what happened 6 years ago.
.
Peter➡ Why did you s£nd me that nas-ty video 6 years ago?… If you wanted to break up with me.. You should have just said it to my face instead of hurting my pride as a man!
.
Angelina ➡ Video?? What are you talking about?
.
Peter ➡ Don’t pretend Angelina… You know what you did… You s£nt a s-x tape to my WhatsApp informing me, in hurtful words that you were done with me.
.
Angelina ➡ Look.. I honestly don’t know what you’re talking about.. I never s£nt any tapes…. Besides what’s in the tape?
.
Peter➡ You’re seriously pretending you don’t know?
.
Angelina ➡ I swear to God on my life, I don’t.. Just tell me what was in the video.
.
Peter sighs and looks at Angelina with rage in his eyes.. He desperately tries to control his anger so that he wouldn’t do anything stupid.. After a while, He tells Angelina about the video.
.
Peter ➡ I really can’t say much.. But first of all, I saw you un-derneath the white b-stard and you laughed introducing the guy as br@d your new b©yfri£nd.
.
Angelina ➡ br@d!??
.
Peter ➡ Yes, br@d?… You remember now?
.
Suddenly Angelina bur-sts out laughing so ha-rd as she ban-gs her fists on the table, Peter looks at her surprisingly thinking whether she has gone mad.. After a while, Angelina tells Peter her truth about the issue.
.
Angelina ➡ Oh Peter…
.
Peter ➡ What’s so funny?
.
Angelina ➡ Sorry. It’s just… br@d isn’t my b©yfri£nd!!.. He’s Charlene’s b©yfri£ndand they have this awful habit of having s-x like rabbits… I didn’t sleep with br@d..
.
Peter ➡ Oh Yeah? Well you were in the video.. And there’s no way you’re telling me that you have a twin.
.
Angelina ➡ Hold on… Was my phone used to s£nd the video?
.
Peter ➡ Yeah…
.
Angelina ➡ That B-tch!!! GOD!!
.
Peter ➡ Is something wrong?
.
Angelina ➡ Of course there’s something wrong… Can’t you see?.. My phone was confiscated by Charlene’s mom.. She gave it to Charlene for safe keeping so that I would focus on the competition..
.
Peter ➡ So you’re saying Charlene framed you?? But you were in the video?
.
Angelina➡ Do you remember when I tried to tell you about Charlene’s job in Europe?
.
Peter ➡ Yeah. I said I wasn’t interested to know about it..
..
Angelina ➡ Well.. Charlene is a make-up Artist… A very good one at that. Can you sum everything up?…
.
Peter keeps quiet for a while processing every thing in his head.. Within seconds.. His eyes brightens up and he laughs out loud… Angelina joins him as well laughing out loud.. Both friends laugh for a while before composing themselves.
.
Peter ➡ F-cking B-tch!! God! We’ve been pla-yed for fools… And the scam was so obvious… Damn it.
.
Angelina ➡ That Charlene… She succeeded at long last… The b-tch pla-yed us..
.
Peter ➡ It all makes s-en-se… Since you both look similar in looks, She paints up her face looking exactly like you.. And then she uses your phone and calls her b©yfri£ndma-king a s-xtape knowing I wouldn’t know the difference… She must have deleted the chats and the video before giving you back your phone.
.
Angelina ➡ Absolutely… That b-tch is sure an evil genius..
.
Peter ➡ A good one too….. Gosh.. I’m sorry… I should have seen it coming.
.
Angelina ➡ It’s okay… Any man could have reacted the way you did..
.
Peter ➡ Yeah… I’m still sorry.. I’m sorry for shutting you out… I should have come to that competition.
.
Angelina ➡ Oh… It’s alright.. I’m not mad at you..
.
Peter ➡ God!… Well.. I hope this will plea-se cause.. I did see your competition.. Throu-gh YouTube… You were great and I saw how you were crying… That million dollars sure choked you up.
.
Angelina ➡ I wasn’t crying because of the prize money… I was crying because you never c@m£ but I’m glad you watched the competition.
.
With one swift movement, Angelina crosses over to Peter and gives him a k!ss💋 on thel-ips.. Peter k!sses her as well and both of them were lost in their moment.. Then suddenly, both of them realize what was happening and they st©p k!ssing.. They both keep quiet for a while scratching their heads… After a brief moment, Angelina breaks the silence.
.
Angelina ➡ Uh.. Sorry for….
.
Peter ➡ No.. It’s alright. It’s alright..
.
Angelina ➡ So what now?
.
Peter ➡ Well, when are you free? I’d like us to catch up on lost time?
.
Angelina ➡ Well.. I’m always free… You have my number?
.
Peter ➡ Yeah… It’s the same one right?
.
Angelina ➡ Yeah… I have yours.. Is it the old one?
.
Peter ➡ Yeah.. So… Are you re-ady to leave?
.
Angelina ➡ Yeah. I’m heading home.. Are you?
.
Peter ➡ Yep.. Let’s go then.. Besides.. I’m late for my errand.
.
Angelina ➡ Oh my Gosh.. Me too…. I completely forgot… LOOK AT THE TIME!!
.
Peter ➡ (laughs) 😂 Relax buddy.. Your mother isn’t going to beat you. You’re a grown woman!
.
Angelina ➡ Don’t be surprised if she does.. Come on.. Let’s go.
.

#ANGELINA
God! Why did you let this happen?? How could you have given me a witch for a cousin… All this time and years ap@rt from Peter… That b-tch was responsible.. She even had the guts to console me when she was behind our breakup 💔. God! Just wait till we meet.. She’s going to be in a real trouble.
After Peter dropped me off at home… We both took our separate ways and entered our various houses..
After that revelation from Peter, I felt different … It was like I was back to my younger self again… The Love I had for Peter had suddenly reemerged from my heart and it was stronger than ever.. Collins was no longer in my mind, he was like a distance dot almost invisible from my mind.
As I walked into the house, I was surprised when I saw Charlene with her kids talking to my parents.. Without thinking twice, I glared at her and insulted her in front of everyone.
.
Angelina ➡ You B-tch!!
.
Felix ➡ Jesus! Angelina!?
.
Alice ➡ My God! Have you lost your head?.. First you come back late and now this?..
.
Charlene ➡ Cousin.. Are you alright?
.
With one big leap, I hurled myself at her and landed on her, strangling her n£¢k… We rolled on the ground pu-lling each other’s hair pinching each other in the process … My parents watched with shock as they saw us br@wling like cats.. Mom pu-ll-ed Charlene’s kids away to a safe distance, while Dad tried separate us… It took a while before he broke us free.
.
Charlene ➡ Are you crazy??? What’s the meaning of this?
.
Angelina ➡ B-tch plea-se! You know very well what you did.
.
Felix ➡ Angelina!! Enough!! What’s going on here?
.
Angelina ➡ Tell them! Tell them what you did 6 years ago!?.. No wonder Peter hates you..
.
Alice ➡ What happened 6 years ago?? Charlene! what is she talking about?
.
Charlene ➡ I have no idea!
.
Angelina ➡ So you’ve forgotten alre-ady?? By the time, I slam my fist 👊 on your head.. Your memory will come back.
.
Felix ➡ Alright you two… Follow me.. Alice take the kids upstairs.
.
Mom took the kids upstairs while Dad sat us at the dinning table asking us what happened but before that happened, He scolded us for about an hour, Charlene and I were busy eyeing each other murderously.. After Dad was done.. He asked me what happened.
.
Angelina ➡ Dad.. This witch here was the reason why Peter and I broke up 6 years ago… She s£nt him a s-x tape framing me for cheating on him… You’re so going to pay for what you did.
.
Felix ➡ Enough! Charlene.. Is this true?
.
Charlene ➡ Yes.. But it was a harmless prank.
.
Felix ➡ Harmless? Tell me what’s harmless about this?.. You destroyed your cousin’s relationsh!pand you call that Harmless… This stunt of yours could have cause eternity enmity between Peter and Angelina… I’m disappointed in you.. Being a man also, I can un-derstand his predic@m£nt.. Only God knows the emotional pain you’ve made him felt… I’m really disappointed in you and tell me.. What’s your gain in all this?
As for you my daughter… You should behave yourself and learn to control your anger… What if there were visitors here or maybe you fans saw you react this way…. I don’t want to see two fighting again. un-derstand?? Have I made myself clear?
.
Angelina ➡ Yes father…
.
Charlene ➡ Sure Uncle.
.
Felix ➡ Good! I want you both to apologize to one another and Charlene, I want you to give Peter a heart warming apology… He deserves it and I want you to settle whatever trouble it is you’re both having… Is that clear?
.
Charlene ➡ 😒😒😒😒
..
Felix ➡ Are you listening Charlene!?
.
Charlene ➡ Yes Uncle.
.
Felix ➡ Good.. now apologize to each other.
.
As we were doing that, My mom c@m£ down and asked what happened, my Father told her everything and she too poured her own before telling us to leave her sight .. After that, I went to my be-droom and shut the door, afterwards I jumped on my be-d and began to cry… It was heartbreaking that Peter and I split but now, some b-tch is engaged to my childhood love and it’s all Charlene’s fault… I should have broken her n£¢k when I had the chance…
As much as I want Peter, I can’t tell him to break his engagement because of me.. It would be selfish and cruel… But I would really feel hurt if I saw him finally getting married to that Bianca lady… God! What do I do?
…
In that moment, I heard a knock on my door, I slowly went and opened it to see who it was…. Charlene was standing at the front door, when I opened it.. She wasn’t smiling and so was I.. We stood staring at each other for a while before we both finally said something.
.
Angelina ➡ What are you doing here?
.
Charlene ➡ I want to apologize to you.. Can I come in?.
.
I hesitated for a while before moving out of the way… Charlene walked in briskly and sat on my be-d pla-ying with her f!ngers, I sat a bit far away from her glaring at her.
.
Charlene ➡ (sighs) Look! I’m sorry for what I did..I really am.. But honestly.. I’ve been planning for this to happen since we were kids… I don’t like Peter.. I really don’t… The b-stard ru-bs me off in a awful way… And believe me what I say this.. It felt good when I saw his face when I s£nt him that video… It was so fun back then I didn’t realize the consequences of my actions.. Once again I’m sorry…
.
I kept quiet listening to her… This Charlene.. Even in my pres£nce she’s still showing her res£ntment for Peter and she’s even proud of her work… This B-tch get mind o.
.
Peter ➡ Why do you hate Peter?? What did he ever do to you to make you hate him so much?
.
Charlene ➡ Well.. The reason why I hate him is because he’s an arrogant pr-ck!! He always looks at me like I’m some kind of plague… Even on the very first day we met… I was just trying to get to know him better but no… He never gave me a chance to do that.. He would always shun me and pay more attention to you.. I tried everything to get his attention but nothing worked… I concluded that he hated me and so I hated him back and decided to make him pay.
.
Angelina ➡ So this is what is all about? You tormented Peter just because he didn’t talk to you???
Well let me tell you something you don’t know… Peter didn’t ignore you.. In fact he was too nervous and shy to do that.. You know why… He thinks you’re too cool for him… He was always afraid of approaching you and when you approached him, he just couldn’t find the right words to say to you… You were different from the rest of the kids in our neighborhood, he was amazed when I told him you were from abroad and that you were my cousin.. To him, you were a sight to marvel.. You wore the best clothes, shoes and everything…
It was also the same with me with I first met him, but it didn’t take long cause I f0rç£d myself on him.
Peter never hated you.. He just wasn’t confident enough to talk to you.
.
Charlene kept quiet after I was done.. From the look of her face, she must have been t©uçhed by what I said.. I saw her wiping tears from her eyes… She was crying but she never showed it.. After some sniffs, she turned and looked at me.
.
Charlene ➡ I’m truly sorry… Why didn’t you tell me this all this time?
..
Angelina ➡ You never told me this was the reason behind your cruelty.. If I knew I would have told you alre-ady.
.
Charlene ➡ God! I’ve been such a terrible person… Where’s Peter now?? I have to apologize to him.
.
Angelina ➡ Oh… He’s around.. But we can’t see him tonight… Let’s leave it some other time.
.
Charlene ➡ Okay… (Laughs) So are we good? No more fights?.
.
Angelina ➡ Sure cousin.. We’re good.
