Destiny Revealed

Episode 45

That Saturday night was like hell, I could not sleep all through..

The previous scene kept displaying on my head, my greatest fear now is someone else finding out that melvin kissed me, chai am as good as dead……

After my conversation with mama femi, my mind was a bit at rest, atleast she has been the only one who truly understands me…..

I made sure I didn’t have to see melvin all through the party, how can I even see him, tola has been the bridge, she was all over him like a fly… Only if she knows melvin has given me those lips she longed for…. I smiled like a winner… Come what’s my joy self. . melvin lips?, ah God melvin still has a week before leaving this house and he is gonna be around all through the week, how do I cope with this Shame… I seriously just have to be myself …..

The following day was a Sunday, it happened to be an hectic one, there was alot of work to do, I was too busy to think of anything …

Thank God I didn’t have to see melvin all through the day, not even tola or precious had access to his room that day, except nkechi who served him his three square meal in his room….

I wonder why he has refused to show his face….

Or his he regretting?

---

We all retired to bed all stressed up that night… I slept like a baby putting all my thoughts and problem behind……

Keji!! Keji!!

Me: Still sleepy… Ehn ehn… I managed to open my eyes, it was nkechi….

Nkechi: Which kind yeye sleep you dey sleep…. Morning don reach nah. ..

Me: Flew up from the bed…. Yee! … I quickly ran to the bathroom, shower, put on my uniform and ran out of the room, I know trouble is serzly waiting for me….

Tola: Don’t tell me you are just waking up….

Yee!! I don die today.

She was with melvin…. I guess melvin has finally decide to come out of his hide and seek game….

I made sure I didn’t have to make eye contact with him.. I really can’t help the shame…

Me: Stammering… Go-od mor-ning ma.

Tola: And what is good about the morning… So this is how you do wake up late right….

Melvin: Tola calm down okay, there must have been a reason for. ……

She was weak yesrernite so I told her to rest well before waking up. .. Mama femi cuts in from no where….

Ah thank God, atleast this witch won’t have to swallow me alive..

Melvin: Keji is that true…. Moving closer to me and looking all worried…

Me: Shifted back. .. Am okay sir….

I hurriedly left their presence while mama femi followed me…..

Me: Mama if not for you today ehn…

Mama femi: Didn’t you see melvin reaction when I said you were weak yesternite..

Me: I don’t care… I said challantly putting on my apron.

Mama femi drew me back suddenly….

Mama femi: What do you mean by you don’t care, and what was that attitude for…. She asked angrily.

Me: What attitude… I asked out of fear..

I was so scared…. Mama femi harly gets angry.. And I don’t want to get on her bad side… Never…

Mama femi: The attitude you displayed in the sitting room, what ever happened between you both is your personal problem, your boss is your boss, so avoiding him is like disrespecting him… What gut on earth do you have to walk out on him… Answer me, she shouted angrily…

Now this is getting out of hands..

Me: Cus I felt that was the best I could do, so as to avoid any means of trouble, am scared of any one knowing about this, and most of all, avoiding melvin for now will he the best… I said. Mama femi: That is still not enough reason to avoid him… It is wrong .. She said and walked out angrily….. Leaving me close to tears….

What should I do?, everything is just so complicated right now, I know i should be happy that melvin noticed me, at least that was all all wanted, he even kissed me… Am just confused….. Even if melvin is for real, we shouldn’t be doing this…

What will become of me if they find out. . ehhh nah die be that.

But still I cant keep avoiding melvin…

I we still lost in my thought when I heard a car left the compound… I just hope it is precious and tola, atleast the house will be in peace… I sighed and continue with the dishes, then Nkechi barged in suddenly..

Me: Shocked… Yo scared me….

Nkechi: No vex jae…

Me: No wahala.. Precious don commot abi… I asked her..

Nkechi: Yes, nah she and tola commot, he be like say dey get outing….
