“Bewaji” Marcus called out for me as I hurriedly made my way of Joy’s house because I was trying to avoid him but I guess I failed. Of course, I know I can’t avoid him forever now that I am the new soloist but I hoped I could today especially since Alice is waiting for me in the car.
I could still act like I didn’t hear him and just continue on my way but then he would know that I am trying to avoid him. So, I waited for him to walk up to me
“Hey” I greeted him
“I am so glad you decided to show up” he said with a soft smile on his face
“I am too, I am happy to here too”
“So, wanna go to Madam Black’s restaurant, on me. You can get the pepper soup you love so much and tell me more about your village’s crazy festival” he suggested
“I can’t today, I have to go home early” I turned him down politely
“Another day then, tomorrow maybe”
“I won’t be available too”
“Then when?”
“How about never?” I replied harshly
“Excuse me?”
I am probably going to regret what I am doing right now but I have cut my ties with this man for my marriage. Kylian won’t be happy with me if he finds out that I fraternizes wth his enemy
“I gat to go” I tried to escaped
“No, no, no” he ranted as he cuts me off blocking my escape route “What is going on with you? What is the problem?”
“You are my problem”
“What?” he exclaimed looking so confusion
“For a stranger, you are awfully good to me, you are nice to me, what is your motive?”
“Oh god! Are we back this again” Marcus groaned
“Oh yes, we are. When I am sad, you make me happy, buy food for me to cheer me up, take me to a church so I don’t feel alone and now, you even set me up with a band. You have shown me the love and care that I have never received from my own husband and that is suspicious”
“I am just tryin….” He tried to explain himself
“Is it because you think I hate Kylian” I cut in sharply
“What?” The young footballer looked more confused than he was earlier
“Maybe you think both of us can fraternize over our hatred for Kylian but news flash, I don’t hate Kylian, I have a mad crush and even though I am married, I won’t mind fucking him”
“Oh my god!” he grunted as he finally decipher meaning of my words, then he burst into laughter. I could see the deep hurt in his eyes. Guilt courses through my vein as I see the pain of betrayal in the eyes of the only man who has shown me love and care since I got into this awful country
“I can’t believe this happening to me” he said in between his laughter. Then turned to leave, I couldn’t even move because I felt so morbid
