CHAPTER 34

                   CHAPTER 34 
    " So you are the Dennis, I have been hearing about?" Kevwe asked after waiting for seconds for Chelsea to be out of hearing distance. 
    " Yes, I think....." Denis answered, not too sure what she heard about him.  
   " You think or you are, please choose one?" Kevwe asked. 
    " Well, I don't know what you have been told, so I'm not sure if I'm the one you have been told of" Dennis answered. 
   " So are you saying my best friend is a liar?" She asked angrily. 
   " No, No...., my love can not be a liar and I'm not saying that she is. I'm jus saying she might have misunderstood me  and given you a wrong ideal or impression of me. So it is just for you to tell me what you heard about me and then I will confirm if it is true or should I say correct or not" He told her. 
    " I can see you are a negotiator, I like it, although you are Conny too. You expect me to tell you what I heard about you. Do you think I don't know that you can easily change the story about you? " Kevwe asked him. 
   " I promise you I wouldn't" He promised her. 
    " But since I'm the one asking the question, you will have to tell me what your intentions towards my friend are and why she was so down when she came back on Saturday. Although she told me already , I still want to get your side of the story. Not that I don't trust my BFF's Word, but I do with all my heart and it can't hurt to get the two side of the story like I said earlier on" Kevwe told him. 
   " As you can see and I'm guessing from what she has already told you; I'm interested in her romantically and not just for a short period of time , but I'm planning for it to be forever, you know what I mean?" Dennis told her. 
    " I guess I get what you are saying. So you mean you want to marry her right?" Kevwe asked. 
    " Yes I do" Dennis answered, happy that at least someone gets it, that his interest in Chelsea is not just for fun, but a serious matter which is going to be forever, because the moment he met her ; he knew immediately that she was the one for him. She might not be sure yet, but he is totally sure and was very happy to see that the walls she put up was gradually falling. 
  " That's good, but from what I know you guys just met, right?" Kevwe asked surprised and happy at this same time that Dennis was actually serious about her friend and was willing to take it to the final level of any relationship. 
   "  Yes, we just met, but the day I talked to her was not the first day I saw her" Dennis told Kevwe. 
   " Really?" Kevwe asked, " She didn't tell me she knew or has seen you before the day you two met" Kevwe told him. 
   " That's true, but I have seen her so many times before and what I have observed by looking at Chelsea is that she isn't that aware of environment most times she is walking about, all she is focused on is where she is going or headed and I don't know why" He told her with a perplexed look on his face, " Because my God if I was as beautiful as she is, I would be so aware of my environment because 
then  she would be able to notice so many people watching her and admiring the way she walks, her movement and all that . Hope you get what I'm saying?" He asked after he finished confessing his appreciation and admiration for Chelsea. 
   " Yes, I do ; me too. But I don't get why she doesn't want to believe she is beautiful" Kevwe told him. 
   " What!,  She doesn't believe she is beautiful?" Dennis exclaimed angrily, " That's outrageous" He added. 
    " Sometimes" Kevwe said.
 " She is always beautiful, body shape the way it should be , the way she talks, in her walk; I mean every part of her is beautiful " He said with his eyes filled with love. 
      " I can see it, you are truly in love with her. You are just what the doctor ordered for her" Kevwe said.
   " Thanks, for saying that and accepting me. I  just  wish she knew how much I loved her and would accept my love" He said sorrowfully, " Love shouldn't be this hard" He murmured to himself.
   " Well, what I can say is that she is already in love with you and getting to love you. But she  is gradually learning to accept you, can love you and eventually when she gets to that stage of loving you and accepting you completely, you will just know by looking at her" She encouraged him.
      " I hope so" He said in return.
