Michael: What do you mean he didn't show up in training?
Star-joe: Yes he didn't and I tried to call him and his phone rings without being answered
Michael: Have you checked him in his place?
Star-joe: No I can't run after him, after all, you are the one who brought him to the team so I am just saying that your client is not complying with us
Michael: I will deal with him, keep me updated if he shows up
Star-joe: Okay, have you heard of the terrible accident that happened last night?
Michael: I care less about such, my care is at doing money and feeling pity for lifeless creatures
Star-joe: Oh sorry
Michael: Is there anything else?
Star-joe: No there is nothing Sir
Michael: Then end the call because you already want to turn me into your friend
Star-joe: Have a good day sir
A month later
Monica
I went to attend my first appointment today. It was a great experience I can't lie. The moment they apply the gel in me to put the ultra scan. To witness my baby's movements, it is a great experience. Well, the doctor said he is coming along good. We know the gender, I am expecting my little Brandon. Talking about Brandon I get to miss him. Having William playing the Father role today made me miss him. I wished he was there and I wished I was able to experience those moments with him. It would've been good to have him by my side, to be honest. I reached to my phone and scroll through our pictures. I am jealous to delete them, I am hoping for the day that I will finally accept that he is my past and put him in my past. I went through the picture, they brought out memories we made. Those memories play like an old clip in my head. I can still hear our voices in my head, how he would tease me, and how he would make me laugh. We had a great thing going on. How could the one I love brought so much pain to me? I still don't get it why will I still have to think of him after so much he put in me.
William: Monica I thought you are sleeping
Monica: ( His presence frightened me, I startled as I switch the phone light off and put it on the table) Umh well no ( Stuttering)
William: Did I disturb you?
Monica: No you just caught me off guard
William: I am sorry
Monica: It is okay
William: It was really good to attend the appointment with you
Monica: I appreciate your support
William: And it was a good experience, to see his movements
Monica: He is very much active
William: Tell me about it, so when is the appointment again, I don't want to miss it
Monica: I will notify you ( He smiled)
William: Thank you
Monica: No, thank you for your support, I truly appreciate it and I don't know what to do to show my appreciation ( he leaned over to kiss me but I was fast to stop him. I cleared my throat) Umh William I don't think we should be doing this
William: Doing what, what are you talking about?
Monica: This thing of us kissing
William: I don't think I follow
Monica: Umh well...
William: I thought we are a couple and a couple do shares some kisses
Monica: I am not in the mood
William: Is there anything you will like to share with me?
Monica: I feel like we are moving too fast don't you think?
William: We have done nothing yet, I mean like I don't even know how to kiss you, so when you say we are moving fast what do you mean?
Monica: Umh I...
William: Do you love me?
Monica: I am starving, please excuse me
William: I am talking to you Monica, answer me!!
Monica:( He raised his voice) Please stop raising your voice at me as if like you are talking with an uncompliant kid
William: Just answer me !!
Monica: I don't have time for you (I said that moving out)
William: Where are you going?
Monica: It has nothing to do with you!!
I don't even know where I am going. I just went out pissed. How could he raise his voice at me!!
I found the bench and seat on it. I let all my emotions sink in and after some time, I searched in my pocket for my phone but I couldn't find it. I panicked a little then I remembered that I left it on the table. I took a journey to Tinyiko's apartment. To my luck I found her. It's been days without seeing her so she was kind of happy to see me. The excitement she had over me just brought back my emotions. I just started crying
Tinyiko: Ooh girl what is wrong with you, I am happy for you and you just decide on crying
Monica: He was shouting at me Tinyiko
Tinyiko: What, who and why?
Monica: Who can it be?
Tinyiko: Brandon?
Monica: No, William
Tinyiko: What!!! Why, what did you do to him?
Monica: Why will you think I have done something to him
Tinyiko: Because it's unlike him
Monica: So you are on his side!!
Tinyiko: No just fill me in, tell me the whole story
Monica: I don't know what happened, all I know is he shouted at me and it matters to me
Tinyiko: Are you okay?
Monica: No I am not, he was bitter towards me
Tinyiko: Eeh girl what exactly happened?
Monica: He needed to know if I love him
Tinyiko: Ooh and you said you love him right?
Monica: The thing is I don't know, I get to think about Brandon recently
Tinyiko: Really now Monica, after what he did to you he still crosses your mind?
Monica: I don't choose to think of him okay!!
Tinyiko: Then what are you doing to prevent it?
Monica: It is all confusing me
Tinyiko: Do you love him?
Monica: I think I still have feelings for him
Tinyiko: No, I will never talk about that bastard, I am talking about William?
Monica: I am not sure of how I am feeling for him
Tinyiko: You just created a mess, Monica, know your status with William before this get's worse
Monica: It is hard and confusing at the same time Tinyiko.
Tinyiko: Find the way out girl

My life is such a mess especially after what happened that day. I know two months have passed on but I am still stuck with him. I am still hoping for clarification or I can say I am still in need of answers. It is insane that all along I thought they were friends while they were more than a friend. Oh, it makes sense in how Brandon suddenly left the time she showed up in the bar. How could I be blinded by this? Indeed love is blind. I am no fit to her. she is beautiful and glowing and the fact that she is even carrying his baby, it's tough. Brandon is heartless how could he deny her in front of me. Well maybe he has his reasons but it doesn't make any sense. If he denied her to save our relationship then why didn't he come forward to try to make things right? I mean like I never heard from him since then. I am left alone on this house so thinking of Brandon is me being lonely. I checked on the media they are lots of guys who are trying their luck at me but they are no fit for me. I will rather be this lonely than give them a chance. The ringing doorbell intruded me from my thoughts. When I open up the door I met the white mid 20's guy. Well, I was kinda confused and taken by the beautiful of the smile he flashed on his face. I found myself lost in my own world for seconds. He is carrying a huge bouquet of roses. I wished to tell him that he is at the wrong address but at the same time, I was yearning to hear his voice. The bouquet was heavy as he was struggling to carry them. He pulled out the proof of delivery.
Delivery man: Good day miss, forgive me for what just happened
Clara: Good day to you too( his essence was breathtaking, that took my heart away from me) And it's okay I understand, they are too heavy and beautiful
Delivery man: Delivery to Clara?
Clara: What!!! Who is the sender?
Delivery man: It's yours to find out, please sign the POD for me
Clara: Wow, what, what is going on here sir? Who sends this to me?
Delivery man: I am sorry miss you can't find answers in me, I am only doing my job, not to be harsh but I really have plenty of Deliveries for today, I am trying to say try to be quick
Clara: I am sorry for wasting your time just that it took me off guard
Delivery man: I understand, here we go
Clara: Thanks wow
Delivery man: Have a special day miss
I carried the bouquet, they have an small card in them. With the immediate effect, I ran my eyes on the sender. The space was blank. I went to read the message that says" My selection of those roses is because you are my rose. I hope you love them. Please take care of yourself". That left me wondering. I am his roses, then who could it be? I mean like my mysterious man?
