Painful Addiction
"What happens when a nerdy girl falls for a playboy?" "They say that pain is a sign of weakness leaving your body but in my case, it's a clamp that refuses to let go of my heart no matter how hard I try." Chisom has had a complicated life but when she meets him, the world seems brighter and everything feels a thousand times better. Even though Chisom masquerades as the strongest person she knows with nothing being able to move her, deep down, her emotions are as fragile as an egg: easily shattered. Meeting him was one of the best things to happen to her. He was her first love but would he be her last?
Break-up
Through the rest of Reuben's industrial training, I kept in touch with him, not giving away the fact that I had already chosen to be with Tobi in my heart.
I guessed I hadn't broken up with him yet because I was still having doubts and perhaps wanted him to come back so I could see if I still felt anything again when I kissed him.
Whether I would still harbor the same interest I had in him when we started dating.
In those months before his return, I was still in touch with Tobi.
His surprise visit on my birthday was burned in my memory even days after he had left.
I couldn't help but fall more in love with him every day.
It wasn't something I had planned to happen.
