BETRAYAL 32
darlinton stared @ his injured finger for a
while b4 descending heavily on lynda, kicking &
slapping her.
Lynda's cry soon shook the whole lodge that
fateful evening, making us freeze like statues as
she recieved Dar's blows all alone. I truly have
never heard nor witnessed any1 cry with such
pain & anguish before in my life, but instead of
rendering any help, i just stood n watched as if i
was watching a home video.
i was too scared to jump into the fight, but then
whatever it was that prevented me 4rm
intervening that moment equally turned me into a
very heartless girl who just stood n watched a
fellow girl as she got beaten in a fight which truly
started because i happened to be in that very
room that moment.
"Supposing Amara n i left things as they were, all
these wouldn't ve happened but i guess it's now
too late to be regretting" i reasoned as i watched
him beat up lynda.
Amara was still too stunned to intervene, as she
sat speechless on the bed with both hands on her
head.
After Darlinton's revelation abt her boyfriend that
fateful evening, she just coloured up n kept to
herself like an AIDS patient.
The poor girl really had given up with her
struggles when her strength failed her, yet
Darlinton really was very furious to care or even
notice.
Supposing his 2 friends didn't break him away 4
her that moment, i truly don't know what could
have happened..
Dar n his friends finally left us alone in 'pieces'
and i was then left with the huge task of reviving
Lynda. Poor girl who was trampled upon,
humilated and beaten all because of love.
People don't believe me when i do say that most
things about life is either cruel, comes from
cruelty or ends with cruelty, but here again
Lynda's case is just but one out of a million
cases, and even though i blamed her, i still
understood her plight, because not every girl has
the strength nor courage of letting go a guy with
whom she shared a unique portion of her heart
and body with.
With shaking hands, i lifted up her head n tried to
revive her..
Luckily Neighbours rushed out from their rooms &
held Darlinton strongly, even though none of them
dared caution him.
I managed to drag Ben to his room, while some
kind neighbours followed & assisted me in
calming him down
"do you want to bring yourself down to his level?
abeg always ignore him the way we do, he is just
a frustrated crimminal" they asked, advised &
cautioned
Benjamin who kept moving his eyes to & fro like a
cornered rat.
"i think u should report him 2 the police or school
security" a neighbour advised,
"hmmm which kind advice u dey give so?
Abeg don't listen to him unless u are ready to
fight all his {cult} group" another neighbour
chipped in, causing a hot debate among them & it
lasted till late in the evening.
"i'm sorry 4 dragging u into this" i apologized
when we were finally alone. He bit his lips and
stared at me with a blank expression.
"cyndii i failed you" he muttered sadly.
My heart melted, i drew close & held him
passionately,
"you made me very proud today dear" i replied
sweetly.
He breathed deeply b4 kissing my right hand,
"please i will like to see the spot where his belt
landed on u" he begged quietly.
I instantly looked away with a coloured face.
I never knew he noticed when Darlinton's belt
landed on my body because it happened in a flash
& i equally failed mentioning it to him because i
didn't want him to feel bad.
"c'mon dear please show me" he pleaded.
I calmly obeyed, turned my back n pulled off my
top,
"oh my God!" he exclaimed as he examined my
body, making cold shiver run down my spine,
"i will report him to the police" i heard him mutter.
My heart instantly leapt, i turned n held his hand,
"please allow this matter to die abeg dear" i
pleaded with guilt n shame in my eyes because i
never knew i would stoop so low as to beg on
Darlinton's behalf, even though i was restrained
from reporting him to the authorities few days
ago, but my plea really was 4
Ben's good, because cultists are always very
deadly & unpredictable.
"so what do you think we should do to him?" i
soon heard him ask. I swallowed hard, covered
my face with my palms and rested it on my
knees,
"what really should be done to that rascal?" i
asked myself over n over again.
A multi million question very hard to answer.
I was very busy with my thoughts that i never
knew when he left me to boil hot water, nor when
he returned with a hot bowl of water.
"dear i'm about to massage your back" i heard
him say as he sat beside me.
I jolted, stared at him n smiled, while he curiously
returned my look.
My bra was soon on the floor and his hands all
over my back with a small towel which he used in
massaging me,
Oh how sweet it really was to have his strong
gentle hands work on me with a hot towel.
I was soon caught in the euphoria of heavenly
feelings.
Hmmm I know you all can guess what happened
next...
STORY CONTINUES
Well nothing happened that evening, I later on
Left to Lynda's room!
“Darlington is a devil” Lynda cried as i helped her
sit up,
“i will report him to sch security and the police” i
assured her,
she disagreed
“Don’t worry abt me just go to ur room i want to
be left alone” she added sorrowfully,
“why, u are yet to regain ur strength, i’m not going
anywhere” i replied with a heavy heart, but she
calmly pushed me away.
“cyndii please just go with ur friend, trust me i’m
okay” she assured with red eyes. I shrugged with
resignation, stood up n dragged Amara with me
as i quietly left her room.
My legs shook as i walked out from Lynda’s room
that evening, while my heart wept as if i was the
one who recieved the beating.
Surely i was very downcast with a guilty feeling
because i knew i caused the whole fight by being
in her room that evening.
“do you believe that David is a cultist?” Amara
suddenly asked.
“i seriously don’t know dear, life itself is a
mystery” i calmly replied.
Even though i was shocked when i heard
Darlinton’s revelation on David’s involvement in
cultism, i wasn’t entirely surprised becos i really
never liked him for once but just tolerated him
because of my friend, perhaps that was why i
easily believed Darlington’s revelation even
though i clearly hid my feelings from her, because
i really didn’t have the strength to take on another
scene…
“i will confront him tonight” she muttered quietly,
“good but be diplomatic when doing that” i
advised. She said no other word and left for her
room….
I barely had settled in my room, when Benjamin’s
knock shook and woke me from my thoughts,
“please dear i’ll like to be left alone” i pleaded
when i opened my door.
He stared at me with surprise but i looked away
and avoided his gaze.
“hope you are okay?” he asked,
“yea but please let me be for now, i’ll come over
to your room later” i pleaded. He stared at me for
a while, shrugged and left without further
questions, even though i knew his mind must be
filled with questions that very moment
.
Sometimes guys always mis-interprete or don’t
understand when we beg to be left alone, most of
them however do oblige us with doubts and
suspicion in their mind.
Most_times when we girls go through a painful
experience which we prefer not to share with
anyone, we do like keeping to ourselves and
having a boyfriend around always spoils the
whole thing because of their inquisitive nature.
No matter how much we love a guy, there are still
some secrets we do keep away from them.
My heart soon leapt when i heard som1 knock on
my door {Darlington’s usual pattern} which left
me stunned, speechless n indecisive as i
contemplated whether to answer {open} my door
or not
“what is it again?” i coldly asked Darlington when
i finally opened my door , and Benjamin whom I
also knew heard the noise, i really had no choice
than to open my door n face the devil.
“what took u so long?” he asked with a smile,
expertly avoiding the question i asked him.
“what do u want?” i asked again, while my right
hand strongly held my door knob, for easy closing
of my door incase he tried anything silly.
“c’mon baby y the angry look?” he asked with a
composed smile. I boiled inside as i stared at him
with hatred,
“how can he appear, so calm, well composed n
lively after all he just did?” i wondered angrily.
“anyway since u don’t want to talk to me, let me
go ahead n say what brought me to ur room” he
added calmly.
“i came to apologize because of what happened
this evening in Lynda’s room n i truly did what i
did just to prove to u that there is nothing going on
b/n Lynda n i anymore even though i do regret
hitting her so hard” he tried to explain, but his
explanation n apology only got on me angry.
“u didn’t just hit the poor girl hard, u also tried to
kill her, and never u say that u did such a stupid
thing to prove ur nonsense love to me, i never
sent u on such errand, so just leave me alone
please” i bravely barked at him.
His eyes instantly lit up in anger for a while b4
dying down again.
“so i lost Lynda 4 nothing?” he asked,
“cyndii please don’t turn me into a wretch
because u won’t like it” he muttered with a dirty
smile
“are you threatening me??” i asked nervously. He
just smiled n walked away, leaving me in great
fear, suspence and wonder.
Truly Darlington knows how to leave a lasting
impression on anyone he targets n as he walked
away that fateful evening i was left in deep
thought as i tried to figure out what he meant by
being left a wretch….
I locked my door showered n rushed back into
Ben’s room, deeply shaken and scared to my
bones.
All i needed that moment was his soothing words
n caresses to calm my nerves n a decent s*x??
to bring my broken spirit back to life.
“baby hope u are okay?” he asked as soon as i
landed on his body.
His voice instantly aroused n made my nipples
hard…..
