Onalerona's POV
"You've been very scarce lately what's going on ngwanake." asks dad and I sigh. (my child.) I would love to tell my dad everything that's going on and the pressure I'm feeling of having to take care of two households and myself and that my grandmother just got diagnosed with cancer but I won't. "Papa I've been busy at work and I'm sorry about that." I say.
"It's okay just as long as you don't strain yourself." he says and i give him a tight lipped smile. If only he knew I'm just beginning with the straining myself. "I won't papa I have to take care of myself too and how can I do that if I'm overworking myself." I say. "That's good but besides work being stressful is everything okay."
"Yeah everything is okay." I say. "That boy hasn't bothered you." he says and i chuckle. "Papa there is no boy in my life." "It seems like you have forgotten about that one that walked you home." "Papa that's my friend." "Oh really, do friends kiss each other's hands." I laugh. "No papa they don't he was just being polite." He chuckles.
"I hear you just friends." he says and we chuckle. "What if papa I have another friend and it's not the one you saw me with that day." I say. "Then I need to know this friend so I can see whether you are in safe hands or not." "We not together papa." "What's going on?" "It's complicated." "Do you still love him?"
"I think I do I'm not entirely sure." I answer. "Give it to God. I want to see you happy ngwanake and if he makes you happy you should be with him but that's if God approves, if you see God constantly trying to separate you then it means stay away but if he does the opposite then I think you should take the leap of faith."
"I think it's too late papa." I say. "It can never be too late." he says. "You think so?" "I know so. I don't want you to lose your chance at happiness. I made that mistake once and i regret it and i don't want you to do the same. I don't care what kind of person you with...okay I'm lying I do care; he needs to have money and he needs to have a good personality and not be ashamed to love you publicly." i chuckle.
I smile. "He does have money and he does have a nice personality but I don't think he can love me publicly." I say. "Is he married?" he asks. "What, no papa." My dad can never find out that he is married otherwise he will disapprove. "Then how come he can't love you publicly." "His family might be ashamed of me because I'm not as well established as he is."
