Love Me Again

Episode 39

“Love is possible when in pain”
I spoke with his parents, and they are only going to forgive him

When they see changes in his behavior
Am not sure I have fully forgiven him yet, but one thing am sure of is I still love him
I don’t know how I can still love in the absent of forgiveness.

After a few weeks, I was with dad and mum watching some program on television, when we heard our door bell ring.

I went to get it, just to see Clyde standing there smiling

We had no plans, we spoke 30minutes ago and he told me he was going to sleep

Me: What are you doing here? I mean you didn’t mention you will be coming my dad is around, and we are having a family time

Clyde: Babs relax, at least let me in
Am glad your parents are here, I came to see them

Me: What for? Please don’t ruin anything we have going on now

Clyde: I don’t intend to, I let him in after a peck and a hug, I saw my dad adjusting himself in the couch

Me: Dad before you say anything, I didn’t know he was coming but he said he wants to talk to you and mum.

So please and please just hear him out

Dad: Young man, have a seat, what do we offer you

Clyde: Nothing sir, Thank you for this opportunity

At this point I was nervous, Clyde don’t blow this up for me.

We all sat and was eager to hear what he had to say

Clyde: First of all, am sorry once again for anything, And my Dad yelled, Go straight to the point, I don’t have all the time.

At this point I kept staring at him

Clyde: I want to marry your daughter, officially now.

We three all chorused; WHAT?

Dad: Are you out of your mind, I allow you to do whatever it is you do with her these past months because I made her a promise.
Now here you sit with me with this rubbish, This is the last of your stupidity, I will take, Now get out before I say something else
Clyde just sat there with his head in his palms

Mum: My husband, don’t you think you are being over protective

I mean allow them to do what they want
You can’t make a decision for your 28 year old daughter, She’s right here, ask her, If she likes it why not

Dad: Woman, you talk as if you don’t love your daughter

And as if she has ever made any right decision for herself

Me: Okay enough
