The repeat performance of 24/SG, Sarah’s concert arrived. Gerald, who had just arrived from his out of town basketball game, went straight to the Big Dome to see his princess. He has no time to freshen up; he saw Mommy and Daddy with Ate Joana in the dressing room. He greeted them and gave them the fruits and goodies he brought from the province. Mommy noticed his tiredness and asked if he has eaten; she gave him hot tea and cup cakes and advises him to take some rest while waiting for Sarah to finish her rehearsal. He thanked Mommy Divine and went inside the resting cubicle and put his feet up the stool as he reclined in the sofa to have some rest. They close the door so as not to allow any press and non family to enter the room. Mommy asked Daddy Delfin to call the catering and ask if the food is ready and if they can deliver it early.
Gerald felt so tired and closed his eyes, he fall asleep immediately. The final rehearsal was completed, so Sarah went down to the dressing room and saw her Mommy and Daddy busy preparing the food for all the staff. She finds Gab sitting outside the cubicle and playing his phone. He signaled her with his hands in dictating that Ge is inside. So she went inside the cubicle and find Gerald still sleeping. She went and sit beside him, lovingly looking at his face; she touched his face, Babe, sorry for all the troubles that our relationships brought you. I don’t know why they are doing this to us. But promise, at the end of my contract, they can no longer dicdate my life. I love you very much; if I am not thinking about you, my and your family; I will defy them all. I will shout out to the world how much I love you and how lucky I am that you love me. I know that with God, our love will see us through this fiasco. We will win the battle, my love; then kissed his nose and tickle him to wakefulness.
Gerald heard every word uttered by Sarah, but still pretends to be sleeping, how he loves this girl, she completes me. Lord, please do help us overcome these trials. I witness how dedicated Sarah is to her craft and how she was being exploited by people whom she trusted and love. Her family are so good and too trusting also, they were not aware that Sarah deserves more than what they are receiving; but being so God centered, they let these people exploited their kindness. The reason behind this fiasco is very clear, they wanted me out of Sarah’s life, because they have seen how she is maturing and learned to voice out her feelings, which she have done before. They thought I am a bad influence for her. He silently promised to himself, he will not give up on her, and will fight for their love, no matter what happen to his career. He felt Sarah tickling his side; he slightly moved his legs, as he stretched out his body to alert Sarah that he is already, awake. He opened his eyes and saw her face so near, he kiss her as she hug him tightly.
Sarah: Babe, let us eat, the food is ready and then you can go home to rest. You look so exhausted. How’s your game, somebody texted me, you got leg cramps. Babe why that look. Then she kissed his nose, his cheeks and then his pouting lips. Then they laugh while still holding each other.
Gerald: I’m okay now, just seeing you; holding you and kissing you revitalize me and ready to fight the world. It’s part of the game that players gets cramps, especially when he is the star player of the game like me…proudly pointing to himself; laughing. But Babe, I will just be waiting here for you, I will no longer joined the crowd. Just remember, you are great; and there is nothing to prove, just enjoy the show and let your audience see more of what you can give them. Okay let’s eat.
