The Battle Of Love vs Social Class (episode 8)
Courage is not the absence of Fear, but rather the ability to confront your fears without chickening out. The forces that were against Dennis and Olivia’s relationship were too many but one thing was sure; and that’s the assurance that their relationship will scale through any crisis and come out unhurt because their love for each other is greater than any obstacle that tries to keep them apart. As parents, it’s good to trust your children’s decision when it comes to choosing their life partners. Try not to interfere in what you can’t control because you might end up losing any form of close relationship you have with your child. All you should actually do as a parent is to counsel your children properly to be able to make right decisions for their lives. Trust their choices and pray that God exposes any concealed bad character or motive in the person they desire to start any form of relationship with. In the case of Mr & Mrs Duncan, they went overboard with their actions and might have succeeded in pushing their son further away from them.
Immediately Dennis drove into the restaurant parking lot and saw Olivia being whisked away like a criminal, he was dead drop shocked. That sight alone was capable of sending him into Coma right away. He was shocked, surprised and at the same time angry. At that moment, it’s safe to say that Mr & Mrs Duncan should get ready to dance to the music they played because the battle-line was drawn.
“What in God’s name is going on here? Where are you taking Olivia to? If you move another inch with her, then get ready to jail me because blood will flow this very moment and I promise you that the blood won’t be mine, neither will it belong to Olivia” Dennis furiously said as he alighted from his car. At that moment, he was ready to drop his home training and show the bad side of him no one had seen yet. His beast-mode was already activated.
When Mr & Mrs Duncan set their eyes on their son whom they hadn’t seen nor talked to for several weeks, Mrs Duncan wanted to run towards her son and give him a tight hug because she had greatly missed him; but the look on his face was enough to warn them to stay off.
The two police officers that handcuffed Olivia were confused on whom to take final orders from. They were a bit disappointed on how everything turned out but that wasn’t their cross to carry. On seeing that the person that was thought to be allegedly kidnapped was right there looking at them, the police officers removed the handcuff from Olivia’s hands and let her go. They entered into their van and zoomed off; leaving everyone back at the restaurant parking lot.
Immediately the officers removed the handcuffs from Olivia’s hands and drove away, she burst into uncontrolable tears due to the disgrace that was brought upon her at her work place. She cried bitterly in front of everyone that was gathered till Dennis rushed and held her tightly. “Baby I am so sorry, I’m so sorry my love. Please forgive me for everything, I’m so sorry!” He gently said as tears began to fall off his eyes too.
Despite the sad energy in the atmosphere and the magnitude of pain that was inflicted on Olivia emotionally, Mr & Mrs Duncan were insensitive and didn’t show any atom of remorse for what they had done to the innocent lady. Instead of apologizing to the two lovebirds that were extemely emotional, they began to rain more hurtful words to the grieving lady.
“I can see you don’t want to listen after all we have done to pass a message that we don’t want you in our son’s life. You belong to the gutters and that’s where you will remain. Go and look for your mates and leave my son alone you gold digger. This is just the tip of the iceberg because I will come for you if you don’t leave my son alone” Mrs Duncan furiously said. Immediately she was done talking, Dennis looked at her in disgust and spat on the floor close to her. “I regret the day you gave birth to me because you are nothing like a mother. How dare you talk to another human being like this? Who raised you mum? Was your lineage always this rich? I believe someone paved the way for you and dad’s lineage so you both could enjoy this wealth you have today, so why can’t you believe in another person to do same for themselves? Besides, who gave you the mindset that ‘money is everything’? What happened to putting happiness first before any other thing? Why on earth will you humiliate a lady you know quite alright that I have feelings for? Why did you come here to humiliate her at her work place? This is just a slap on my face and I will never forgive you and dad for this. Matter of fact, I don’t need anything from you both ever again in my life. Stay the hell away from me and Olivia otherwise, I will come for the both of you. Leave me alone since you don’t want to share in my happiness and accept a lady I have found love in. This is the lowest you could go. Leave me alone and never show your faces again in my life” He furiously said.
Immediately Dennis was done talking, he held Olivia’s hand and hurriedly walked her into his car. They shut the doors and zoomed out in speed, leaving every other person behind. The humiliation was too much that he didn’t want to leave her at that restaurant for another second. He drove to his hotel to pick up some few things and they disappeared out of sight without telling anyone where they were headed.
Due to the incident that happened, Dennis felt it was best he took Olivia to a nice beach resort so she could be around nature and heal from any trauma she might be having. They traveled a long distance to a nice resort in the outskirts of the town they resided in.
Throughout the journey, Olivia cried bitterly and refused to be consoled by her man. They arrived at the resort in the evening and lodged in one of the most expensive room that directly faced the beach. Dennis paid for one week and they settled in after a long trip.
Despite being in a nice and serene environment, Olivia still felt hurt as a result of what happened earlier. Dennis begged her with every strength in him and was ready to continue pleading on behalf of his parents. After one night stay at the resort, Olivia gradually began to heal and smile again. They both switched off their phones to avoid any interaction with the outside world. They wanted an alone time to heal and strengthen their love again.
They went on strolling in the evenings and usually sit beside the sea shore to talk about life. Olivia and Dennis revealed even more details about their lives and it made their bond even more stronger. They had so many intimate moments and fully gave themselves to each other.
One quiet night, Dennis ran his hands through Olivia’s long natural hair. She was putting on only robe without anything under, while he was putting on only a boxer. Emotions were on the high and before they knew it, they began to kiss passionately.
As they kissed gently with their eyes shut, Dennis ran his hands through Olivia’s robe and pulled it apart. For a second, they parted their lips and looked into each other’s eyes. He reached for her beautiful b****t while she held his head as she moaned in intense pleasure. Dennis’s head gently lowered down till it got to Olivia’s thighs. He used his lips and tongue to run through her thighs as she called his name over and over again.
After few minutes, Dennis climbed back up to Olivia’s body and gave her a soft kiss. “How do you feel now?” He asked, “Like a woman” she replied. He smiled faintly and cuddled her extremely tight.
They wanted to make love so bad that night but Dennis assured Olivia that he was willing to wait till their wedding night before taking her virginity away. Despite being overly into the moment, they still managed to hold back their burning emotions for one another. That night was one of the best nights of Olivia’s life and her intimate bond with her Beau grew even more stronger after that day.
While the lovebirds were having the best time of their lives, Mr & Mrs Duncan were worried sick about the whereabouts of their son. Everything Dennis said that very day to his mum kept replaying in her head. She felt like a bad mother and began to regret her actions that had succeeded in pushing her son away from her. They were sober and needed to make amends with their son but the only problem was that he was nowhere to be found. They searched for everywhere possible but couldn’t find him. A week passed by but they hadn’t seen him yet.
After one whole week of being away, Dennis and Olivia finally came back to base. Dennis told Olivia to quit her job with immediate effect and gave her a huge sum of money to start up a business she had been desiring to start up for a long time. That day was one of the best days of her life. She kissed Dennis over and over again till he was tired of receiving the appreciation kisses.
Life was going extremely well for the lovebirds and Dennis made a decision to make his relationship public. He no longer saw any need to hide anything from anyone so he began to flaunt his babygirl. Their relationship was beautiful without the interference of third parties.
While Dennis was living his best life with Olivia, his parents were missing their only child. They tried every possible means to reach him but all efforts proved abortive until one fateful evening. That day, Mrs Duncan was informed by Dennis’s assistant that he now lived in a hotel. She went without her husband to the hotel one evening and fortunately, Dennis was around with Olivia.
There was a sudden knock on the door that evening and Olivia went to open it thinking it was room service. When the door opened and she saw Dennis’s mum, she panicked and dropped the phone on her hand. Before she could utter a word, Dennis came from behind and was shocked to see his mother standing in front of his door. “Mum, what are you doing here?” He shockingly inquired.
Mrs Duncan looked sober at that moment. She took a deep breath and calmly said; “My son, I am here to apologise to Olivia”.
