He smiled and sighed. “Oh! Thank you very much ma, you won’t regret it.” He stood up to leave. Doctor Manuel called him back. “Doctor Jilha, if you hurt her in anyway, not only me but her brother will make your life a living hell.

You can leave now.” Jilha nodded and left quickly feeling excited. The next time Emerald came, Doctor Manuel persuaded her to listen to Jilha. “Come on Emmy, he is a good guy believe me, I can vouch for him, he is a very good man please Emmy.” Emerald sighed. “Alright aunty, I trust you, I will speak to him.”

Doctor Manuel smiled. “Thank you dearie.” Emerald later went to speak to Jilha. “Hello, thank you for listening to me hmmm….. I don’t know your name.” Emerald rolled her eyes. “It’s Emerald.” Jilha smiled. “Wow nice name for a beauty.” Jilha said. “Emerald was getting irritated by now. “Please get to the point, I have important things to do.” He smiled again. “Alright. Emerald, I really like you, ever since the first time I saw you, I knew you were for me, please give me a chance.” Emerald scoffed. “Wow! The last guy that said that to me jilted me, what makes you an exception?” Jilha begged and held her hands. “Emerald I promise you, I won’t do that to you, please, I am begging you, no other woman has me enthralled like you do, I won’t let you down.”

Emerald sighed. “You really are a persistent one. Alright, I will sleep over it, we will see won’t we.” Jilha beamed. “Thank you so much, thanks for considering me. I will await your answer. Have a nice day.” After their discussion, Emerald decided to give Jilha a chance. She told Jofin about it. “What do you think Jo? I don’t want another heart break, am scared.” Jofin frowned as he thought deeply. “Well aunty vouched for him already, he seems like a good person to me, I will say go for it. I will just give him a warning that’s all.” Emerald grunted. “No. Jo don’t, I still remember what you did to Alexis.”

Jofin hissed. “Don’t mention that b—–d’s name. Don’t worry, I won’t do anything to him.” Emerald smiled. “Okay, thank you Jofin.”
