The Black And White Love

CHAPTER SIX

**Selina**

Holding him triggered the best feeling I ever had. The kind of feeling where your heart beats faster when you know something good is definitely going to happen. I felt safe in his arms and everything felt right.

"I brought your SIM card." He said when we pulled apart. "Its already registered so you can start using it right away."

"Aaww thanks. How much is it, so I pay you back?" I asked as he handed a flat rectangular case to me.

"You have Ghana cedis?" He asked and laughed. I sat on the rock and he did same.

"My dad changed some money before we came to Ghana."

"Okay, you want to pay me back?" He smiled and I nodded. "Then think of what I asked you earlier. That should be enough."

I laughed softly. "I will."

"Dad, can I start using my SIM card now?" I asked when we were having dinner.

"I totally forgot you needed one. Where did you get it?"

"I bought one from the grocery store." I lied and Marian giggled.

"Okay. Sure, go ahead." He nodded as he munched.

"Honey, what about the WiFi?" Mom asked.

"James called the network company yesterday. Their team will be here next week to do the connection."

After eating, I skipped to my room to start work. I looked for my phone and inserted the card into it. I went for my diary and saved Sandra's contact on it. Then I dialed her. She answered on the second ring.

"Hello, who's this please?" She asked.

"This is a ghost from the Accra cemetery."

"Oh really? I'm sorry, you've called the wrong line. Maybe your other ghost mates can get you the right one." She replied in a serious tone and I laughed.

"Sandra, funny you!"

"Selina? Oh M Geee!" She beamed. "What happened to 'I'd give you a call when I get to Tamale?'"

"You're the first I'm calling, be grateful. I just inserted my SIM card." I said and she chuckled.

"Thanks for calling. So what's up? How's Tamale?"

"Tamale's cool...not literally though." I chuckled.

"I know right. I've been there like twice. Its a nice place though."

"Yeah," I agreed. "So what's up with you too? How's Accra?"

"Hmmm...Accra is fine but not fair." She sounded sad.

"Why? What's going on?"

"I just feel like leaving the place."

"My room won't be bad for two." I joked. "Hey tell me what's wrong girl."

"Remember I told you about Max?" She asked.

"Max, Max, Max...Oh Maxwell! Yeah, your cute Max."

"Yeah, not my Max anymore. I caught that bastard on top of a bitch two nights ago when I visited him." She angrily said.

The news caught me off guard. I never would have thought that cute innocent faced guy could have done that. She showed me pictures of him and talked about him soo much. She seemed happy with him. His looks would deceive almost every girl into believing he was her Mr Right.
