” I told you to leave that imbecile,” she shouted and angry but she knew Chichi wouldn’t listen.
” I love him ….even though he is a idiot sometimes,” she smiled while look at the drawings of the toddlers on the table. She was choosing the ones to put on the wall for the upcoming event .
” Are you even serious?” she asked placing her hand on her waist.
Precious had came to check up on her while fetching her nephew. She placed her bag on the chair and gestured to her nephew to be sit steady while grown up talk. But her nephew was sneaky peeking through the door.
” I ‘m serious,” she replied while hanging the drawings on the wall.
Precious clapped her hands twice when she notice her nephew wanted to go outside . He sat upright and she warn her with her finger and facial expression.
” What do you need from a man who is in love with Sarah?” she asked her while she put her hand on her waist. Her nephew was playful murmuring to her and she playful pose as if she was being taken pictures through the phone.
“Sarah?” She asked in shock . She wondered if it was the only Sara she knew. She wrinkled her forehead in thought. Maybe it was not the Sarah she knew
” Your cousin,” she answered and turned her back on her holding her nephew’s hand and tightly,.
” Sara?” she muttered and looked at Precious who was walking away to the door. She put her bag on the chair near the door and featured for her nephew to sit andwait for grown up to talk. She walked back to her playfully and her nephew laughed,staring at her delightful.
” Yes ,that one!” she pointed at her gladly for correction and stopped walking..
Its been two weeks after her birthday. Two weeks Malvin had been seeing Sara. She had been avoiding him and ignoring him for the past days. He tried to call her but she was still furious with him. It seemed as that she had led him to her arms but she couldn’t believe it. Her heart was sore and her blood started to boil.
” Are you sure?” she asked nervously.
Precious pulled her phone from pockets and scrolled and showed her pictures which left her flabbergasted. Her jaw dropped,she had mixtures of anger and hurt in her heart. She .
dropped the drawings on floor and rushed out.
” Nancy, wait! We could go to…,” she shouted and noticed she had left her bag.
She grabbed her purse and bag . His nephew had gone and fetched him from other class. She headed to Nancy ‘s house. They stayed on same street but Nancy was near to the nursery than her house. But Nancy wasn’t home,she had to give her brother Anthony.
” When she is back ,tell her to call me “
************
There was a echo of wailing in her mind and tears trickled in her eyes. She believed when one was heartbroken ,angels would cry with her. She rushed to Malvin’s apartment . She wasn’t thinking when her feet led her there. She suddenly saw his car’ parked on side of the road ,the engine died and he stepped out . He wasn’t alone,she noticed. Her jaw dropped and her heart was cut in halves when Sara alighted from the car.
Both didn’t seem to feel her presence . Malvin stroked her bum and she giggled like a child getting sweets. Nancy hide behind the trees ,peeking from it. She couldn’t miss it . She searched her pockets for her t catch and noticed she had nothing on her She recalled that she had left her purse with phone at the creche and she sighed. Hate and bitterness show in her eyes ,covered by tears. She was on the verge of losing it.
” I can wait to feel this smooth things,” he whispered.
Her heart was burning with hatred as Sara and Malvin entwined their fingers and enter his apartment. She assumed they were going to have sex from the way he was blowing kisses when he swirled her around. The sight was dreadful for her to hold.
‘ He is already having sex on my cousin. I will confront him,’ she thought.
She walked to the door and remembered it would prove she was coward. She wanted to confront them and make sure they would how much she felt.
‘ I ‘m not stupid. Do what you want Malvin. I let you be, you are out of my life from now,’ she said to herself and headed home.
