**THE BETRAYAL**
(episode 45)
At Benjamins Family House
.....“do u still love my son?” Ben’s mum asked
seriously, scanning my face with her eyes.
I breathed n nodded,
“yes i still do mum” i murmured.
But my reply had no effect on her nor stopped her
curious eyes from running through me.
I arrived Ben’s house quite on time that fateful
day @ assist the mum in preparing lunch.
Something i did out of obligation n respect i had 4
the family.
Benjamin travelled home the previous day,
expecting me to travel with him like we used to
whenever i was visiting his famiy, but i declined
his request leaving him totally surprised n scared.
His mum however was a bit cold n reserved as
she welcomed me. I knew as a woman she really
was very disappointed by my behaviour, but
perhaps was forced to invite me becos of her son
whom she had 2 set aside her personal feelings 2
please.
“are u really sure about that?” she asked.
I breathed deeply, smiling nervously.
I really was glad she sent her son away b4
questioning me, something only wise mothers
with good experience would do.
I equally felt she wasn’t listening nor paying
serious attention to my replies, but was intently
examining my facial expression with each reply i
gave, as if she was a mind reader.
“if u are still in love with him as u claim, y break
up with him?” she queried.
I calmed my excitement b4 pouring out my own
version of the story.
“ur story is similar to what he told me, you both
made mistakes so i see no sense in your decision
and i can’t stand it any longer.
But I have ordered him never to beg you again
because relationships are not built with pity but
with good understanding, so tell me, how long are
u willing to put him on hold n what’s ur plan 4 the
other boy?” she asked.
“mum whatever will be will be, i promise to work
out things with ur son but i need a little more time
to sort myself out.
I still love him” i replied.
She shrugged n smiled weakly.
I instantly knew she wasn’t convinced with my
reply, nor did i need anyone to tell me i had failed
her test.
She really read through me so easily.
A strange gifted woman she was.
She asked no other prying questions as i spent
the rest of the afternoon with them before rushing
back to my lodge amidst Ben’s pleas. I knew the
way i left without spending a single night with
them like i used to, further added weight to her
suspicions.
“Polluting Ben’s mind would be her next line of
action” i reasoned.
By 12pm the next day, i was already on my way
to Mike’s family house with weird feelings in my
heart.
“Whatever is written can never be changed”
2pmMike’s family house.
“i’m really delighted u honoured my invitation, u
can’t imagine how pleased i’m” Mike’s mum said
to me sweetly, while I blushed n said nothing.
“we really do ve a lot to talk after the meal, so
relax and enjoy our hospitality” she said.
I nodded with a calm smile.
Guilt n fear totally consuming me without warning.
The joy in her eyes as she came running totally
buried my guilt n fear.
“daughter inlaw” she greeted as she hugged me.
Mike hardly touched his food that afternoon as he
kept staring n pleading with his eyes, but i
pretended not to notice.
A heavy rain however started immediately after
lunch.
Lightening n thunder striking like madness.
“don’t worry dear, the rain will stop before 4pm”
his mum assured me with a smile as she led me
to a sofa, while Mike excused himself to attend to
some areas of the building which was leaking
under the heavy rain, leaving his mum all alone
with me.
“i know all abt ur story with my son. Trust me if i
were in ur shoes, i would have poured hot water
twice on him b4 allowing him to explain.
I really don’t blame all u r doing to him,she said,
held my hand
“no matter how hard we try to fight or pretend, the
truth is that the memory of our first love affair will
always remain buried in our heart.
This is where an elder like me comes in, i will
never wish u bad nor decieve u, becos any
agreement we arrive at will equally affect my son
either positively or negatively” she lectured. I
shook nervously as i listened.
“what do u feel whenever u look at him?” she
asked.
I swallowed hard n shook my head
“I don’t just know ma, i can’t describe what i do
feel, because it’s a mixture of hatred, compassion
etc” i confessed.
She breathed deeply with a smile.
“u still love him my daughter, pls don’t fight it any
longer” she pleaded with wet eyes.
I knew she was very right, but i instantly
remembered Benjamin. A boy who showed me
care and love when i needed it.
“i really can’t go back to your son because i’m
already with another person” i sobbed. The good
old lady closed her eyes, breathed deeply and
drew me to her chest
“i really do understand dear, because my sister
experienced the same thing when we were
teenagers” she murmured with a broken voice. I
instantly raised my face and stared at her.
(Episode 46)
....“yes my dear, i speak with experience, the best
u can do 4 yourself is to follow your heart, allow it
to be the Judge.
Marriage is not something built on pity nor
sympathy, but something built on solid love.
Please dear let my words not look as if I’m
rushing u.
There is still enough time 4 u to think over
everything.
I have ur phone number, so reaching you won’t be
a problem, but just know that if you should accept
my son, we will quickly arrange the marriage
ceremony in no time” she concluded with a smile,
leaving me totally lost and confused.
The heavy rain finally stopped around 6:15PM
messing up the road n making it very un-
motorable. I was stranded.
“our road wasn’t this bad last raining season.
It’s as a result of the red soil poured on it by the
contractors handling the construction”
Mike explained as we stood outside minutes later.
I had insisted on leaving after the rain stopped,
declining his mother’s pleas for me to sleep over,
but looking at the road i knew i wasn’t going
anywhere that fateful sunday evening.
8:45pm
HIs mum gave me an old lovely pink night wear
which i really didn’t know where she got 4rm.
I thanked her, took my night bath and relaxed in
the guest room.
I was swiftly carried away by my thoughts as
soon as i laid down, that i never noticed when
Mike came into the room, nor when he sat on the
bed.
“hey cyndii” he greeted. I instantly sat up and
stared at him suspiciously.
“I will be heading straight to town as early as 5AM
2moro becos of my work, hope u can wake up by
that time? So i could drop you at ur lodge, before
going for my own business, though it all depends
on our road.
let’s just pray the road gets a bit dry before
dawn” he said calmly, but before i could reply, a
heavy thunder went through instantly jolting us.
Rain started dropping on the roof once again.
“oops” he exclaimed, while i smiled, even though i
had no reason to do so.
Before i knew what was happening, his lips were
on mine, hungrily devouring what they had waited
so long to taste.
I unknowingly surrendered completely to the
torrent of my own voracious longing, arching my
back in ecstastic submission, and thrusting my
breasts against the muscular wall of his chest. I
loved the exquisite agony as my peaked nipples
rubbed against the layers of thin fabric that
separated our flesh.
But i soon got hold of myself and In the dim light
of the room, tore his mouth away from mine just
as a spectacular flash of lightning illuminated his
face. His expression was tortured, haunted and
lost.
“we shouldn’t be doing this, i’m sorry” i
murmured, but he only muttered three words
before his mouth crashed down onto mine once
again.
“i want you” he breathed.
He kissed me intently, shrugging off his top in the
process b4 expertly tugging down my night wear
over my knees.
He broke the kiss n drank in the sight of my
slender body, the delicate ridges of my ribs n the
gorgeous heaviness of my exceptional breasts.
A sharp shock of ecstasy quivered through me.
“Oh i had forgotten how good he was with love
making”.
A high, keening sound of longing echoed through
me, making him raise his head and look into my
eyes
.Under the dim light, his face was calm, mask-
like and inscrutable.
With swift savage movements he stripped off the
remainder of his own clothes and reached out to
grasp my hips.
I was so wet, almost deranged with the strength
of his need, and totally lost in desire.
He ran his thumbs softly along my swollen,
secret folds, loving my eager sweetness.
I knew in few seconds i would be totally lost,
doing something i might end up regretting for the
rest of my life, but the intense need in me
overwhelmed and left me with a naked
vulnerability that made adrenalin surge within us.
In one swift movement, he entered me without a
cöndom.
I tensed n gasped, while he expertly gathered me
into his arms and with infinite tenderness cradled
n began rocking me gently but fast.
Our eyes met n locked.
He soon wrenched his gaze from mine, buried his
face in my neck, breathing me in and tasting the
delicious dampness of my flesh.
The sensation of his lips on the sensitised skin of
my shoulder added a spark to the smouldering
heat between my thighs.
I soon felt him stiffen, pumping his seed into me
with an earth shattering climax.

Minutes Later
We silently laid beside each other, totally
exhaused and weak, his head resting lightly
against the silken pillow of my breasts while one
hand softly caressed the hollow of my waist.
Finally the sense of deep peace that overtook us
during our lovemaking quickly began ebbing
away. The implications of what had happened hit
home and slapped me intensely.
A tide of guilt and self loathing swept throuh me.
I have Betrayed Benjamin
I sobbed.
