When he left, Wemmy
couldn’t get the flashes of the kiss out of her head, her brain was just
running, playing and replaying the scene continuously. It was as if she has
never been kissed before all her life.
She doesn’t need a
sooth sayer to tell her she’s deeply in love with him. She bursted into tears
again and this time not for herself but for Emmanuel, this guy love her like
heavens. Feranmi is right, they should just leave things the way they are now.
Despite the fact that
they didn’t see each other in weeks, Feranmi’s love for Wemmy grows stronger
and stronger, truth be told that kiss did not help matter at all, he couldn’t
get it off his head. He broke up with his girlfriend last section based on the
fact that he caught her cheating on him, I mean he cut her in the act, why
would he do such a thing to another guy, he knows how it felt to be betrayed by
someone loved.
He did not want Wemmy
to turn out to be like his ex. He did not want to be the cause of separation
between her and her boyfriend. But he loves her to the bone, he saw her clearly
in his future, he saw her as someone who will be in his life for a very long
time.
“I’m stuck here. God
please help me, your word says he who finds a wife finds a good thing and
obtain favour from the Lord” he said to himself.
Wemmy is sure a wife
material, that he is sure of, he knew it’s not written on the forehead, but if
you get to know her, then you will wish to have someone like her in your life.

Feranmi was surprised when he saw her in front of his door, he just came back from school and was about to shower when she showed up.
Feranmi was surprised when he saw her in front of his door, he just came back from school and was about to shower when she showed up.
“Wemmy! What in God’s
name are you doing here” Feranmi questioned
“Will you let me in
first?”
“Emmanuel is not back
from school”
“Of course I know
that, just let me in”
He gestured her to
come in before closing the door behind her. He offered her a sit but she
declined.
“Gosh I missed her,
its been weeks we saw each other” he thought within himself.
“I told you we have
to maintain our distance for now, till we put this feelings behind us” Feranmi
said pacing up and down the room.
“And is that helping
you? Because it’s not helping me. Exams is starting in 2 weeks and I’m loosing
concentration already I’ve never carried any course over and we both know that
this is not a good time to experience one, so I need my concentration back and
this disappearing act of yours is not helping matters” she stated.
“OK, no more
disappearing act, hun!”
“Promise?”
“I promise” he
covered the space between them with a stride, he hugged her and kiss her on the
forehead.
“Feranmi, I’m not
saying we should start a relationship but I want our friendship back, imagine
we don’t even have each other’s phone number and I know you did that on purpose
too”
“Give me your number
if that will make you happy” he said and they both exchanged numbers.
“So how was your day?
She asked now in a happy mood.
“It was fine, yours?”
“Stressful”
“But not too
stressful for you to come down here, he said jokingly.
“Wait! What are you
feeling like” she said trying to frown
“Easy, where is your
sense of humour, I’m just joking, in fact I’m glad you came, you made my day
complete”
“Hmm, men and ego,
anyway I’m leaving, enjoy the rest of your evening”
****************************
Wemmy got a call from Feranmi later in the evening, he promised to check on her before the week runs out. They do chat on WhatsApp as well, She now sleeps well this days and she concentrated better on her exams and project.
Wemmy got a call from Feranmi later in the evening, he promised to check on her before the week runs out. They do chat on WhatsApp as well, She now sleeps well this days and she concentrated better on her exams and project.
He came during the
week as he promised and they were back on their gisting mode. He told her about
his ex and she realized why he’s been fighting the feeling he has for her.
There and then Wemmy made up her mind.
“Feranmi, I won’t
jeopardize my happiness for anyone or anything, this is my life and I think I
now know what I want.”
“Wemmy …..”
“I’m breaking up with
him”
“What!” He shouted
almost spilling the drink she served him.
“I’m going to break
up with Emmanuel” she repeated herself.
“I heard you the
first time, where did that come from”
“Except you don’t
want me”
“Come off it, you
know how badly I want you but I don’t want to be selfish, he loves you Wemimo”
“More reasons why I’d
rather break up with him than cheat on him. Feranmi, I’m not that kind of a
girl, I wasn’t brought up that way, I can’t cheat so it’s better to end things
with him. I’m talking about my future here, the person I want to spend the rest
of my life with”
“Oluwawemimo, like
your name implies, I don’t want anything to tarnish your name, let’s not rush
things here”
“I’m not rushing
things. Here is my decision, I’ll wait till we finish our exams and project
defence before I break the news to him. I mean I’ll have to do it before we
leave school finally.”
“Wemimo people will
crucify us”
“We’ll cross the
bridge when we get there and I believe our love we see us through, Feranmi
