5 RECOVERY Pt 2

I got to my apartment wondering how he got my number, my roommate saw my countenance and asked to know why, I just couldn't pick out how or when he did because am not that free in giving out numbers like that.

When I told my roommate about the incident, she was surprised but she later said it might be fate or destiny. I for one never saw him as a speck of mine but I decided to consider just to feel relieved of my past relationship.

You know that feeling of comfort at times you get from the opposite sex, I miss that, so when this opportunity came I saw it as my next comfort.

Although Ma Cherie has been calling me and texting me to know how I was doing, I haven't taken his calls for some time and with this new comfort of mine, I don't think I would even think of it.

On one occasion I was coming back from my usual evening classes, I met this same guy who took my number without my permission. He was standing outside the car park of my faculty, I was furious to see him even though I don't take his call too. I was bent on knowing how he got my number, so I walked close to him with a straight face. It was like he knew I was going to come after him after our incident.

"Please I just want to know how you got my number"? I said

"Oh! That, I thought we've gone past that, Well FYI, I took it from the attendance list at the congress meeting. You see, I have been admiring you from afar especially when you got up to introduce yourself at the congress, ever since that day my eyes and mind couldn't just forget that moment".

"What!? That's to the extreme you know, you should have just told me rather than stealing my number and also stalking me".

"Wanted to make it official the other day but you were so adamant".

I felt relieved but still disliked his personality.

"Okay, please I don't want to have anything to do with you, so just delete my number from your contact and let's act as if we never met. Bye!"

I walked as fast as my legs can carry me without looking back to see his reactions. I was never interested in him nor wanting to do any business with him. He wasn't that guy I would dream about. My mind was already made up.

*****************†*

I was happy to hear that the strike has been called off, my zealousness would pay off eventually.

School resumed with a fast track for final exams, I read with much passion, not thinking of relationship nor my stalker boyfriend.

Although you know that feeling you get that someone out there has feelings for you even though your not reciprocating it at some point, you feel happy and relaxed.

It was as if my moo came for me, I felt relieved.

Exams were over and everyone was preparing for graduation, I saw that I won't be able to graduate with my fellow course mate due to my extra papers but I was never bothered.

I thought about getting married so as not to miss out on the movement or rather the circle of life, my friends were graduating and I would still be at home and going to school? The thought of that got me worried that I had to call my stalker boyfriend to start up a relationship.

I just can't be left alone or should I say, I just wanted to have a say on what people will talk about. If I can't graduate with my coursemate then let me get married before them.

That was how I felt, my recovery from my failures got the better part of me.

This is how real it gets. Please let me know if you've got such feelings too. Thanks
