BETRAYAL

It was a Saturday morning.

A black Toyota Camry came to a halt in front of a magnificent building, its back seat opened to reveal the priceless jewel within. A lady in her early twenties came out of the car with a bouquet of flower and thanked the rider.

she wore a red fitted gown and paired it with a silver heeled shoe with her silver purse to complement her looks and she looked nothing less than breathtaking.

Her face lit up as soon as she entered the building due to the thought of the person, she wanted to pay a surprise visit to. I can't wait to see the surprise etched on his face when he sees me. With such thought, she entered the building, opened the door with her sphere keys.

she turned the door knob and walked in, shutting the door behind her. She inspected her environment; the lights were on plus the Tv set. Why is he so careless to have left everything on, when is he going to learn? She moved further when she stumbled upon a female heel and lingerie.

A female lingerie? she asked no one in particular, perhaps his sister came over and she came with her boyfriend. she mentally convinced and encouraged herself.

ignoring those glaring signs, she made her way to his bedroom.

I will just have to wait there for him since his sister might be having a great time with whomever she brought home. As made her way to his bedroom, she heard a moans and voices that were so familiar. Still in the light of convincing herself that it is not the person she had in mind, she took a step further to be sure of the voice she heard and was in for the shock of her life.

************ *****

Ahhh! yes baby, give it to me. yassss my g-spot. uhhhhh ahhh. yes, Jide darling; that's the right spot!!! I ammm.... cumingggggg.

pains flashed through her eyes as it dawned on her whom the voice belongs to. she has been with him for four years that she knows him or she thought she knew him like her body.

she slammed the door open but the both of them had no idea because they were caught up in their moments.

she dropped the bouquet of flowers she came to surprise him with. Tears poured from her eyes like she had an ocean in it, she felt a pang of pain pierce through her chest and left her gasping for breath, all these while she stood at the door trying to find her voice. When it was so much for her to bear and finally found her voice.

Ji....dee!!! She finally managed to produce an incoherent word with tears falling from her eyes before she slammed the door shot and took off to her heels

Jide was so shocked to see her, he jumped up from the bed, arranged himself and ran after her.

Olivia, please wait and hear me out, he was fast enough to catch up with her because she couldn't run very fast due to how weak she felt in her knees.

He held her and drew her into his embrace, she pushed it enough for him to stagger backwards. Do not touch me Jide, she backed at him.

I can explain, it's not what you think Olivia, just hear me out and not jump into conclusions. She said trying to pacify her.

You must think I am dumb, blind and foolish at the same time Jide, it's really not what I think; you are right but it's definitely what I saw.

Look Olivia, he said stretching his hands forward to touch her when he heard a resounding slap on his face.

Olivia! he screamed at her

Don't touch me Jide, you should be ashamed of yourself but I guess the word shame is not in your dictionary. I am sorry to have spoilt your very good moment, you both look good together. she ran off not wanting to hear any further lies.

She stopped a cab, she had nowhere to go in mind but she just wanted to do something. cry, scream, grief, sulk over everything that has been happening to her. First it was her been sacked from work after staying with her cheating ass boyfriend in the hospital for days when he fell ill, then having to drop out of Law school so he can graduate. Name the sacrifice he has been through for a man that wasn't with it one bit.

madam, where are you going? the cab drive asked.

Just drive, she said with so much pain laced in her voice. I don't have anywhere in mind.

He burst into tears again when she recollected everything that happened a while ago. She clenched her fist and clutched her gown with firm grip. The driver kept sparing her glances at every few opportunities he got. When it was too much for him to bear; he spoke to her.

Madam, you just have to get a hold of yourself. It might not be very easy for you but whatever it is that is making you cry this way isn't worth it. He tried to convince her.

What made you think you have the right to tell me what to do? She hollered at him. You are trying to encourage me as if you all are not the same thing, you all are wolves in sheep clothing so just drive and stop trying to make an impression because it is not going down well with me. She commanded

I don't know the animal that did this to you that you now think we are all the same.

Just like there are still some female whores and backstabbers out there it doesn't mean that every girl is like that so stop using one man to come to a conclusion that we are all the same. That's a very shallow way of judging things.

Olivia listened to him .
