CHAPTER 38

>>>> Amanda's P O V>>>>
………………
Days passed and Chima I would say, was perfect.
Though we didn't go out that Saturday, but we did go out the next day which was Sunday and we had the best moment together.
I was so happy, I haven't caught him cheating.
It was just me and me alone.
He made me feel really good and Tola noticed and was curious so I had to tell her that 'Chima has stopped cheating on me."
She was happy but still don't trust him.
Well I do, I love him and trust my boyfriend so much.
He really makes me happy. What else?
*
*
I came back that Saturday, feeling really tired.
I worked so much and I was feeling really bad that ‘A woman had to loose her baby' after delievering.
She had cried so much and even though it wasn't a new scene to me, I felt really heartbroken.
We did our best.. Our very best.
*
I sighed and got down from my car.
'Welcome Amanda ." Shola greeted and I just nodded and headed inside.
Kate was sleeping in the green couch.
I can't blame her. It's 10pm..
I walked upstairs and into my room, dropping my bag on the bed and collapsing on the bed.
Tomorrow I'm packing out to my own house.
It's just a cute bungalow.. Not big.
I like it that way…
I inhaled and sat up to pull my heels off.
I rubbed my forehead after that and headed to the bathroom.
Just then, I heard my mom's car horn at the gate.
She's back.
*
After having my shower and pulling into a yellow pajamas, I pulled into my white flip-flop and headed downstairs.
Mom and Kate were already eating at the dinning..
Huh!
I smiled and joined them.
'So where's mine?" I asked, looking at the covered plates.
Mom eyed me and rolled her eyes.
Haha..I know she's sad that im packing to my house tomorrow.
'Make I put for you Sister(Let me put yours {food} for you Sis…" Kate said and stood up to do so.
'Thanks " I said and smirked at mom who was sipping a glass of juice.
She dropped it and chuckled.
'You know Amanda, I know why you are leaving here." She said.
Umm… So like I thought.
I stared at her to finish up.
'So you'do have so much privacy with that boyfriend of yours." She said.
I laughed.
'Mom, is that what you thinking? I just need to live on my own and know how it feels to live alone." I said.
Im being sincere.
She shook her head negatively.
'I don't really believe you on that." She said.
I just smiled and waved that off as I ate the Jollof Rice.
'Your father is coming home this Xmas." She changed topic which I was more than glad.
'With brother Daniel?" Kate suddenly asked.
Mom studied her question before looking at me.
I shrug.
Like What's wrong in what Kate just asked.
'Yes he is. Do you want him to come?" Mom asked looking focusely at her.
Mom!
She grinned, 'Yes. I never see am. He too fine." Kate said and I looked at her.
'Uhmm.." My mom laughed.
I followed.
I wonder what made my mom laugh anyways.
And me??
*
After the meal, Mom said she needs to sleep and Kate cleared up the table said she want to watch film before going to read. Which I'm sure the ‘reading' part is a very big Lie. She'll sleep here watching Movie.
I walked upstairs to my room few minutes after mom did and layed down, covering myself with the duvet.
I picked my call. I didn't even go downstairs with it.
I was happily expecting Chima's missed call but I found none.
I breathed and dialled his line.
It rang and ended without him picking up.
I can't remember the last time this happened.
Chima has been picking up my call at the first ring.
I dialed his line again, Same thing.
I dialed again, then again, then It was picked.
'Chima why havn't yo--!" My yelling cut cut short by a female voice.
'Chima is having is in the bathroom. Call him tomorrow please." She said and ended the call just immediately.
My pulse ceased.
I can swear that voice was that of the girl that rushed to Chima that day at the Restaurant.
I still can recall her voice!
I shook my head as tears already have gathered in my eyes.
I called him again and it was picked up in a second.
'Who ar—" I was cut short again.
'Are you dumb huh! Chima is in the bathroom. I'll let him know you called." She ended up the call again.
I dropped my phone as the tears began pouring.
I can't believe Chima is doing this to me again.
After all the Love I have for him.
All the money I give to him.
My body that I give to him… Just to make sure he is mine alone!
*
I can't bear this! A weird came into my head and I quickly wiped my tears, stood up, grabbed my car keys and rushed off.
Im going right there to deal with whoever that the bitch is.
*
I rushed downstairs to see my mom at the living-room, scanning around like she's searching for something.
She saw me and rushed to me.
'Oh my goodness Amanda, why are you in tears and holding your car key? What's the matter? Where are you going?"
Tears began falling again and I hugged her, crying more.
'He cheated on me again mom. Chima cheated on me." I cried.
I can't bear it anymore, I must go to my own new house and stay there tomorrow…
Cool down my temper then think of what to do next to Chima..
But, if I try hurting Chima I end up being hurt and emotional aswell..
Oh God, why I'm I so in Love with Chima and his hurting me…??
What have done to deserve this…??? (I asked myself) and slept off after wetting my bed with hot tears .
