Just Mine 57 Omena

A tear rolled down her cheek as she thought of her friend Ruth. Ruth was a childhood friend of Sky, she introduced Ruky to Sky . Sky severed her relations.h.i.+p with Ruth because of Ruky. She has lied to her family several times because of him. Travelled from the Capital to the south, lying to her parent that she's going for some training or visiting friends. She has risked her life plying the bad roads, just to meet him and she always used her money. If she is to spend 30,000 on a trip, he would give her 5,000 or the highest he has ever given her, 10,000 for a trip of 50,000. She was the understanding and supporting girlfriend. Yeah love is stupid.

She broke all her rules for him and yet. She lied to her parent about coming to City L. She told them she was visiting Zino. She plan to introduce him to her family after this trip and after so much convincing, He agreed. Ruky was into entertainment, he was an actor, upcoming star, she never liked that part of his life...but the tattoo on his body help her remember who he is. He always acted s.h.i.+tty roles.

Wiping the tear from her face. Sky smiled as she heard the door open. Surprise! she said smiling. Ruky was really surprised, he burst into laughter. What! Meemee?? I can't believe it...you are really here, why didn't you call me?

Aren't you going to let me in?she asked. Oh I'm sorry, collecting her bag from her, he led her into the living room, dropped her bag and pulled her into a tight hug. I can't believe this is you ...just stay like this, he used his hands to caress her back . She could tell he was happy to see her. He stopped hugging her all of a sudden and grabbed her hand, you said you hurt your finger two weeks ago...lemme see it, is it ok now?

Sky scanned his face, to see if she'll see anything, but she saw nothing, but worry. You still remember that I hurt my hands while sewing?

Yes love I do, and you said it hurt more than the others and even after disinfecting it, it still hurt. Ruky replied her. She laughed half heartedly and said...yeah it wasn't that serious, I've totally forgotten about it. Wow your apartment is really nice. "I don't understand why you have to use all your money to get an apartment in an expensive estate because you want to feel among and these furnitures look so expensive. That was what Sky wanted to tell him but she couldn't because she didn't want to argue."

After dating him for a while, she realised he always try to go for things that are way above his paycheck...she's always told herself n.o.body is perfect so that's his flaw. If only she knew that his greed will drive him to do worse, to break her heart, she would have spoken out and ended the relations.h.i.+p if need be.

I'm thirsty, please get me something to drink. The moment Ruky went to the kitchen to get her water. Sky ran to where he plugged his phone, picking it up, she cursed. f.u.c.k it has a pa.s.sword, putting the phone down she went back to her sit. She was never good at going through people's things, she always respected people's privacy. The only time she had gone through Ruky stuff was in a hotel in the south and he caught her because when he came back and went through his back, he noticed someone touched it, he asked her if she searched his bag. She confessed and told him why she did it. Since then she's avoided such incident. He was too smart, that was one thing she didn't like about him.

Ruky returned to the room with water. You must be tired, I'll have to go out to get you something to eat. I don't have anything at home, you can use the bathroom...it's just by the left...let me take you to your room. As she stood up, she held his hand as he was about to move to stop him from going further. She hugged him from behind and said...I've missed you Ruky, stay with me a bit, don't go anywhere yet. She hugged him tight. Ruky held her hand at his torso and said I miss you too. After standing like that for a while, Sky broke the silence and said, I love you.

Ruky turned his back to face her and placed a kiss on her forehead, and I love you Mena. Sky caressed his face, she touched his eyes, his nose, his lips and then she kissed him. Ummmmmmm Ruky said as he deepened the kiss. the kiss was slow at first but haven missed eachother for long, Ruky pushed her to the wall and held her hand above her head, he broke the kiss, smiled at her. He kissed her eyes, her nose, and then said Omena( My own) that is Mena's full name. And then he kissed her....They only stopped kissing to catch some air. As much as I would like to get lost in your embrace love, I have to feed you first. He released her and turned to leave, Mena caught his hands again. Please sit with me for a while, She led him back to the Sofa and they sat down together with their fingers linked. Can I see your pictures? I want to see how you've been living without me. There's nothing in my phone just boring pictures, you can do that tomorrow after you rest. She didn't have to say anything, he only had to look at her eyes, he gave up, said fine. He picked up his phone, unlocked it and handed it to her.

Sky went through the pictures, most of which she has seen online or the ones he sent to her via WhatsApp. She saw his family pix and one of a white lady in a wedding dress. Ah I've seen this pix on your status before and you said she was? She's family he said. Hmmmm she said, she wanted him to tell her herself, when he told her she was family, she a.s.sumed she was his sister in-law but something doesn't seem right and he never said anything other than she's family.

Family, How? Your brothers wife to be or cousins wife or something. She asked. I"ll tell you about it later he said. I want to hear it now...please tell me, why can't you tell me now? scrolling she saw another picture of the lady, smiling brightly to the camera, holding her left hand up, showing off her engagement ring. I'll tell you about her Mena, just rest.

Standing up she handed him the phone, you wanna know the truth? I stayed outside for almost two hours waiting for you, I called you from your house. I heard you on the phone Ruky... Who's she? was she the one on the phone??

Calm down Mena. It's not the right time, just trust me, I promise I will tell you everything. I'm going to ask you one last time Ruky, Who is she? Ruky held her by the shoulder, listen to me Mena, you must be tired just sleep first, eat and rest. Ok she said.

I'm going to rush out to get you something to eat...it might take like 30minutes or an hour, shower and rest. I'll be back soon. He placed a soft kiss on her lip and left.

Mena wished she could cry. She was right, he is cheating on her and he couldn't deny it, he couldn't say she was no one. She must be important. running her hand through her hair, she screamed. He was going to marry her. She brought out a pen and a book from her bag, wrote a few words, dropped the paper on his table, Picked up her bag and left the house.
