IN LOVE WITH MY BEST FRIEND

IN WITH MY BEST FRIEND ( PART 3)

Esther decided to put away everything behind her and concentrate on her studies. It was not easy for her, but she needed to do this for her mom and herself. To her, failing her exams was like failing her mom and herself. She did not go back to their apartment again for the rest of the semester and avoided Kwabena. After her examination she went back home alone. In her room she started to reflect on all that has happened between Kwabena and her, she cried out a lot. She refused to eat anything, and her mom started to get worried. She did not know why her daughter was behaving this way. Kwabena came to her house in the evening and asked her out in the evening. At the beginning she refused but at the end she agreed to him because she did not want her mom to know what has transpired between them. Kwabena drive her to his new penthouse, on the way, they did not talk to each other. When they got there, Kwabena took her hand and they entered the house together.

Kwabena: Can we talk?

Esther: There is nothing for us to talk about

Kwabena: Esther cut the BS and let us talk

Esther: You know everything now, so we do not have anything to talk about Kwabena.

Kwabena: That is, it. I know everything but you do not know everything.

Esther was just staring at him. She was shocked.

Esther: What do you mean by I do not know everything

Kwabena: Esther please come down so that we could talk

Esther: Okay

Kwabena: Good. Esther, I was aware of what was happening between us for God knows how long.

Esther could not believe her ears. She could not believe what she was hearing. She was astounded.

Esther: whwhat do you mean by you being aware of what happened between us?

Kwabena: I mean I was aware of all the things we were doing. I remember all our make out sessions.

Esther: NO! I mean you were drunk

Kwabena: Esther you know that I am not that dumb. Yes, I was drunk but not stupid. I remember all our kisses. I remember how soft your skin was when I touched you. I remember how you trembled under my touches. Your soft lips . [SLAPPED]

Esther slapped him. She felt stupid. She was stupefied

Esther: But you said nothing the next day. Why did you do that? Why do you always behave that the next day? Do you know how guilty I felt thinking that I took advantage of my drunk best friend who was dating at that time? Now I am feeling stupid. You were dating!

Esther cried out loud. Kwabena hugged her and tried to explain everything to her. Seeing her crying like that makes him hate himself more for hurting her. He will never forgive himself for hurting her.

Kwabena: Esther please I am sorry for making me feel this way. Do not blame yourself. It is all my fault. Esther I really love you. At the beginning I was afraid that you were going to reject me. Back in Senior High I was dating all the girls to make you jealous. I know it may sound mean. Why do you think that I did not want you to date anyone back then? Why did I always wanted to go to the parties with you even though I was dating? Esther I really really love you. I was really hurt when you told me that you were dating Obed. I was jealous of him because you are a good girl. I thought that you only see me as a brother because back then you behaved like you do not care when you see me with a girl. Esty, I am deeply sorry for hurting you. I love you.

Esther did not know if she should cry or smile if she should be sad or happy. These are the words she always wanted to hear from him but now there are so many unanswered questions in her heart. What about Serwa? When did he realized that he was in love with her? She did not have the courage to ask these questions especially the Serwas one. She was afraid of his answer. Looking at her face, Kwabena realized that there is something she wanted to ask but she was afraid. So, he told her to ask him.

Kwabena: What do you want to know? You can ask me. At this moment, we do not have to hide anything from each other.

Esther: Are you also in love with Serwa? Are you dating her? No, I mean why didnt you tell me that you guys were dating?

Kwabena: W. what? There is nothing between me and her. I do not what she told or why she told you that, but we are not dating.

Esther: But why will she lie to me that you guys were in a relationship? What was her reason? You guys were really closed recently. I felt like a third person when I was with you two.

Kwabena: Like I said, I do not know why she told you that. Was that the reason why you started dating Obed?

Esther nodded.

Esther: I was tired of waiting for you. I was tired of waiting for you to recognize my feelings. I was tired of everything. I felt stupid

Kwabena: Sh*t Esther! There was nothing going on between us. I told her my feelings for you, and she told me that she will help me to confess it to you. She told me that she was going to help. I do not know why she told you that, but I think we need to ask her later. Esther you are the one I love. I am also IN LOVE WITH MY BEST FRIEND.

Esther: Are you telling me the truth?

Kwabena: Yes. Esther, I know that I am not perfect. I do not what the future has for us but the only thing I know right now is that I love you and .

Esther could not hold it in any longer. She run to where he was, gave him a hug and kissed him. Kwabena was shocked at the beginning but he started to respond to her kiss. He had never had such a feeling before with all the girls he dated. No one had never brought such a good feeling to him. He was not a virgin, but it felt as if it was the first time had experienced it. It was a tender and passionate kiss. The fusing of their mouths, the feeling his hands when he touched her ignited a kind of electricity in her body. She moaned and exhaled with pleasure only wanting him more. She felt fire in the pit of her stomach. That night, they made love. It was her first time and she was happy to do it with her best friend. She knew that there is so many things for her to solve. That is talking to both Obed and Serwa but now, all she thinks about is, she is in love with her best friend and he is in love with her too.

THE END.
