Chapter 33(I)_ Yomi Kyle Gold

Esosa's Point of View (P.O.V)

After the meeting, I and Kyle had walked back to his cute little cabin, giving some private space to my sister and her 'maybe-ex-fiance', to talk, and think things through, to either save their relationship, or the other way round.

Whatever decision it is they make, I hope and pray it's in the best interest of my sister. She means a lot to me.

Yes girl. We know that. The world knows.

You know nothing of the love I have for her.

Love?. You love her?

Of course I live her dearly. Much more than I do myself.

You mean you like her?.

No, you just heard me say love.

Love?. You love Ann?.

I really do love her.

That' sounds homo'ish.....

We're not homo's, but we love ourselves.

I don't wanna think about it, let's discuss something else girl.

'Calla, I know lots of series of thoughts must be running through your mind at the moment, and there would be no better time for me to make things clear to you than now.... and I'll like you to listen to me carefully.. ', Yomi dragged me to the real world with his piercing lines, which made me smile.

Your tension seem eased. You're supposed to be mad at him for no reason.

Yes, I will. I postponed it for a better time. Trust me!.

Yooh!. Go girlie!. I love us mad!.

'... firstly, I want you to know that I'm for real. My feelings, my words, my attitude and behavior towards you are all real and true, and they aren't going to change for no reason whatsoever. I saw you myself, and I developed a genuine interest in you, not because I knew who you were, but because you're more than the woman I've been wanting. I wanted a woman on a 10 scale, but believe me Calla, you're 13/10 for me. I really love you and I can do anything to make you believe me.... ', he said and moved closer to me, making me lean on his medium sized wooden table, sandwiched between him and it, and took hold of my hands inside his.

Girl, he's stupidly in some crazy undiluted love for you. Look at him.. listen to what he's pouring out from his mouth and make sense of it!.

Uhmmm....

'... I know you aren't happy with what's going on with your sister, and, you might be thinking I and Mendoza are same because we're best friends, but I want to clear your doubt by telling you what you already know, that I do not get  influenced, no matter the pressure', he said and paused and cupped the right side of my face with his left palm and looked straight into my pupils. While I just stood dumbfoundedly, like a log of wood with life in it.

Are you listening girl?. You've successfully admitted him into a love psychiatric hospital. Kudos to you!.

Uhmmm....
