MY EX BOYFRIEND
(Part 16)
David finally arrived at his place, he misses his house Especially his room, he was about to step in the stairs when he saw Aunt Rose.
Good afternoon dear, where have you been? Your father have been looking for you, she said acted as if she Care.
He just shrugged his shoulder and continue walking.
Hey David I’m still your Aunt no matter what you think about me, don’t be rude dear.
Whatever, Aunt if you are going to talk about fixed marriage, then forget about talking to me, because I’m not interested and I can’t marry someone that i doesn’t love, he said and walk inside his room.
He was thinking about how he is going to propose to precious when he suddenly Fall asleep.
His father knock on his door very early in the morning, demanding that he should get up and meet him in the study room, which he quickly enter Inside the bathroom to take a shower before meeting his father.
As he entered the study room he met her grandmother who was also waiting for him.
Good morning grandma, how are you doing?.
Im doing fine David and how is precious?.
She is fine.
So what is this that we heard, that you put all the medical equipment at your girlfriend’s house that her father needed.
His father said without beating around the bush.
I think it would be best for precious dad to stay at home rather than to stay at the hospital, he said in a calm voice, he didn’t want to fight his father this morning.
“Do you really love her so much? What if she is just staying with you just because of your money? His dad said which made him dumbfounded.
Wow I didn’t know, you judge so easily.
You have met her, did she looks like one?.
“I know son but—”
okay Dad, just like you always do, you don’t believe in me, and just for your information I’m going to pay for precious’s father’s medical bills with my own money and not from any company’s Money.
I know what you mean son you cannot blame me—
She isn’t like mom, if that is what you are thinking, she is not going to leave just the way mom left you.
David listen to me I’m your father.
I’m telling you dad, please stay away from this, Don’t push me to marry someone that I don’t love, I will choose to marry precious no matter what you and Aunt rose said, you will disinherit me? I don’t care anymore.
I’m sorry grandma if aunty and my dad believe that my cousins are better than me, then let them have the company, enough of all this, he said with so much anger.
Nelson why don’t you listen to your son, he is a grown up man and he knows what he wants, allow him be, grandma said.
thank you Grandma, you are the only person who understand me.
okay son, but let it be the last time I will be hearing that you spend on her again, let her love you genuinely and not because of your money.
I have heard you dad.
******
thank you David, I don’t know how many times I’m going to thank you, you have done enough for our family and I don’t know how to repay you back, you are the reason my father is leaving this hospital today. all I can is thank you.
she couldn’t control her emotions and she started crying.
David pull her closer and hug her, he couldn’t stand the sight of her crying, I didn’t do everything that I did for you to cry, I know we are into contract but along the line I start having feeling for you, I love you so deeply, I have been hiding it because I don’t want to break our rules but to be sincerely speaking I’m in love with you, but it breaks my heart each time I see Joseph getting closer to you.
but is okay if you don’t love me back, is okay if you don’t want to accept me, and I won’t force you, don’t think maybe you wanted to be with me because of what I have done to your family.
I need a true and a genuine love from you.
precious was shock to hear that, she wanted to distance herself from him, but he hug her so tightly.
I love you precious and believe me when I say I love you, I have been a play boy for other girls, but everything changed the moment I set my eyes on you.
precious was just staring at David, she was lost at words. what would she said, she was afraid that everything he said was a joke, she was thinking maybe the man was pulling a prank on her.
she took a deep breath and acted as if she didn’t hear anything, she smiled.
what’s funny?.
I cannot believe what you are saying to me, she said and then shook her head.
oh my gosh, you think what I said was all joke, he said in a serious tone.
I love you precious, that’s what I wanted to tell you, this isn’t a joke, and I mean every word of it, yes I fail to follow the contract rule, but sorry.
I’m sorry I didn’t understand you.
At first I was in denial, I couldn’t understand myself but everytime I wake up in the morning you are already inside my mind, I feel like I lost my mind when you are not around, I have try to scold myself but I couldn’t, but tell me how do I stop my heart from loving you?.
how can I cut the feeling that started to grow inside me? I know that Joseph came back to you and I’m willing to wait, I will respect all the decisions that You are going to make, I don’t want to rush you.
precious was silent, I know I feel the same way for him, but is it right for me to say it? what if he was just trying to prank me, he made it clear for us never to fall in love and I still see myself falling in love with him, but I’m still afraid, what if he later dump me the way Joseph did to me?.
he pulled her closely and hug her so tightly, it was as if he couldn’t control his emotions.
oh David it hurts, I can’t breath, please let go of me.
I’m sorry if I hurt you, I don’t understand myself again.
“she held his hand, I’m sorry if I can’t give you answer at this moment, I can’t tell you what I feel now because I’m still processing it, I still want to heal from my past, I hope you can wait for me until I’m whole again, until I’m ready to love again”.
alright I will wait for you, no need for me to rush.
my father will be leaving the hospital today all thanks to you, and I will found work to do, so that I can help my mother and I wouldn’t want you to bother your self again, you have done enough.
she hug him .
alright but I would like to know where you work so that I will be dropping you off every morning, if you don’t mind.
that’s fine I will let you know.
