BETRAYAL EPISODE 47 &48
**THE BETRAYAL**
(Episode 47)
.......“don’t cry my love,This was destined to
happen n nothing would have stopped it 4rm
happening” Mike whispered but i really was
inconsolable .
“how do i face Ben after this? How do i stand in
his presence, what will be his reaction when he
finds out”
i’m very serious about marrying you, all i need is
just your consent, leave the rest for me, it will be
history in no time” he begged passionately.
“i can handle myself. I perfectly knew what i was
doing when we made love”I said to myself like a
lost soul.
“we are in this together, count on me for
anything” he spoke calmly, making me stare into
his eyes. I saw sincerity, fear and uncertainty in
them.
“all i want is 4 u to be the mother of my children,I
need not only ur body, but u soul and spirit as
well, please make me urs” he begged.
“why is it so difficult 4 u to accept me my dear
why?” he asked eagerly,
“because i owe Ben alot, he was by my side when
u abandoned me, filled my spirit when i was weak
n defended me when u weren’t there” i poured
out.
He instantly blushed,
“i may not be very much in love with him like i
used to, but i’ll still be loyal to him till he sets me
free” i added, while he stared at me with a
coloured face.
“what nonsense are u saying?” he asked.
“i’ll be very honest with him, i’ll confess
everything that happened 2night once i go back to
my lodge tomorrow.
If he breaks up with me over it, so be it, u can
then have ur chance
i promised, leaving him in a terrible shock.
“are u out of ur mind or what, surely he will end
things with u but i don’t think he will let you go
without first breaking ur head,are u trying to kill
yourself?, cyndy what has come over u?”
he asked.
“that’s the only atonement i can offer, if he kills
me over it then u know we weren’t destined to be
2geda.
Whatever will be will be, my life is already
messed up, i have no reason to fear anymore” i
murmured.
“alright let’s see how it plays out, but my dear i
think u r not okay, ur grief has affected u badly”
he murmured sadly.
“whatever is written can never be changed, if
something happens to me, then know it was
destined to happen” i replied with a weak smile.
He nervously dressed up n left without another
word.
Mikedropped me in front of my lodge the next
morning.
“pls cyndii i beg u, don’t do anything silly” he
pleaded.
“as 4 my confession, i will go ahead with it.
Worry not, i can perfectly take gud care of
myself”
i assured him b4 alighting.
Walking in2 my room, i rehearsed all i planned 2
tell Ben.
It really wasn’t easy making up my mind 4 such
deed, but like i told Mike, ‘nothing would stop me
4rm going ahead with it’.
Just like fate would ve it, i ran into Ben @ the
staircase, he was going downstairs to fetch water
but instantly froze when he saw me.
There was suspicion n relief in his eyes as they
fell on me, while i nervously returned his look n
greeted him.
“cyndy where r u coming 4rm??
I know u arn’t coming 4rm ur house?” he asked
“yeah” i replied quietly, left him n climbed up.
He quickly followed me, abandoning the water he
was on his way 2 get
so where did u go? he asked when we got 2 my
room.
“do u really want to know?” i asked calmly as i
sat on my bed.
“do i still owe u any explanation concerning my
movements?
Isn’t our relationship officially over?” i asked.
“i c u are trying very much 2 harden ur heart, no
prob but i still insist to know” he said.
“alright since u insist, i spent my sunday at
Mike’s house n i’m just coming from there”
i opened up coldly.
There was shock, pain, disbelief n sadness in his
eyes as he stared @ me.
“no it’s not true” he said with a broken voice, sat
on my bed n covered his face with his palms.
He never cried out but i knew he weeped in his
heart.
I stared @ him clueless on what next to say nor
how to behave towards him.
He sat with his face covered 4 about 15 minutes
b4 composing himself n drawing close.
“did he, did he touch?” he nervously asked.
I was instantly torn b/n telling him the truth or
lying to him.
My confusion left me silent which equally
confirmed his fear
“ cyndii, why,??” he asked murderously with
unshed tears melting his eyes.
I was unable to stand his voice nor gaze any
longer. I quietly stood up n backed him.
“i don’t deserve u Benjamin, i really do care about
u, but i don’t understand my flesh anymore nor
the cravings in my heart.
Pls free urself 4rm this torment n permit me to
get another girl 4 u” i said.
But all he did was just to shed his tears which he
very much struggled to hold, silently on my bed.
I was very touched n would have cried beside him
if not that i wanted him to let me out of his life.
Patiently i waited 4 him to come around. I knew
only 1 thing could happen that moment.
Either he ends it like a man or ends up humiliating
me.
Only a woman has the ability to send a great man
to his grave without lifting a finger.
Hmmm!!
**THE BETRAYAL**
(Episode 48)
.......“but what really took you to his house?” Ben
asked minutes later, after cleaning his eyes.
“his mum invited me 4 a little chat, but when i got
there a heavy rain broke out n i was forced to
spend the night there”
i answered calmly.
He swallowed hard with pain, his eyes soaked
with tears.
I really was uncomfortable watching him cry, i
never knew guys do cry 4 love nor cry in such
undignifying manner.
Yes i was very touched, but his tears only drew
out pity 4rm me.
Nothing more, nothing less.
I knew he was very hurt n disappointed, but all i
eagerly waited was 4 him to cut the last rope
loosely binding us.
“what do i do now?” he murmured.
“it’s very obvious i do not deserve u, please purge
me 4rm ur heart n permit me to find a suitable girl
4 u” i begged calmly.
He breathed deeply n covered his face again.
“seriously cyndy i don’t know y all these are
happening, we had a gr8t relationship going b/n
us n now u are breaking my heart n making me
the laughing stock of every1.
I hate to love u”he poured out bitterly, while i
closed my eyes as his furious words registered in
me.
“i gave you everything u wanted n u are now
paying me back with this unjust behaviour, it’s
very unfair” he cried n stood.
I anxiously stared @ him with my hopes up.
I was very sure he was about leaving my life 4
good.
My eyes melted as i watched him walk to the
door.
Truly he never deserved such treatment.
He silently stood beside my door with his left
hand on the door knob 4 some minutes, b4
turning to face me again.
He stared intensely @ me 4 a while before
advancing towards me with an unhappy look and
broke the news to me!...

“i can’t walk out 4rm ur life because of this single
mistake, we have been together 4 a long while n u
havn’t given me cause to complain till Mike
showed up.
I still do love u, let’s just 4get everything n start
afresh.
I know u are acting the way you do because you
are very confused,however i do appreciate your
honesty,not every girl will confess such a horrible
deed.I do prefer the devil i know than the saint i
don’t know.
I still do love u, let’s start all over again n put all
that has happened these past few weeks behind
us” he calmly said with a broken voice n eyes
filled with tears, as he squatted by my side. I was
deeply stunned, shocked, surprised and moved.
I never expected such response 4rm him. It truly
left me a bit relieved, disappointed and happy.
Infact my confusion reached its peak that
moment.
I WAS LOST
“no”i cried,
“yes Cyndii” he murmured,holding my face with
both hands as he stared into my eyes,
“you owe me this chance and a whole lot, so let’s
give it another trial at least till i finish my degree
exams and if things dosen’t still improve between
us, you can then leave for good” he added
seriously, while i swallowed hard with a deeply
coloured face.
There was fear, uncertainty n disbelief in my eyes
as i silently stared back at him. I lost my voice
that moment because his decision totally
disoriented me, though in all honesty i owed him
that benefit.
“seriously, what do i do now?” i wondered
helplessly.
“Benjamin won’t let me go n there stood Mike
behind, breathing down my neck with fire n
passion.
I truly felt very committed to Ben but my body
yearned for Mike, leaving my spirit utterly
confused and my soul lost.
I really wasn’t a girl who could afford dating two
guys at the same time, something i do detest with
passion, but i now found myself heading towards
that dangerous path.
6:30pm
I was lying on my bed, reading a romance novel
to calm my nerves when my phone rang. I
dropped my novel and glanced @ my phone, it
was Mike calling,
“hi i’m in front of ur lodge, can you be able to
come out?, the gateman won’t let me in” he asked
calmly,
“okay, i’m coming” i replied
Minutes later
I calmly walked to his car, opened the front
passenger’s door, entered n sat beside him.
“how far?” he asked hopefully,
“fine ” i replied,
“so how did it go?” he curiously asked, while i
breathed deeply.
“i confessed to him like i promised, but instead of
breaking up or getting angry, he simply forgave
me and begged for us to continue with the
relationship” i explained,
“holy Moses!” Mike exclaimed, snapping his
fingers in disbelief.
i seriously don’t know what to do and you already
know the condition i gave you last night” i added
calmly.
He strongly held my left hand forcing me to stare
into his eyes.
“i’m really way too big to be fighting for your love
with an undergraduate, but i equally can’t deny
what we had last night was very real and
romantic.
4 that reason i will fight to the end just to have u n
nothing will stop me either” he murmured
seriously, making me gasp.
The evening breeze blew on us as we stared at
each other silently.
How do i redeem myself?
How do i untangle myself 4rm this rope?
Or should i hang myself with it??
I wondered deeply.
THE NEXT EPISODES WILL TELL.
Will U Agree To Ben Forgiving HER?
