Meeting Goodluck

His calls kept coming and coming back to back that she was almost tempted to switch off her phone, but she remembered she needed it on to see Goodluck. True to his words he packed infront of the cafe at exactly twenty minutes from the time they last spoke, she smiled as she watched him step out of his car, he looked even more handsome with his sky blue shirt, his broad chest was visible even under the shirt, he looked side ways before pulling the glass door to the cafe backwards. The girls working at the cafe seem to have been hoping he would step in to the cafe someday because they continued to whisper to each other as he made his way to where Amanda was seated.

"Can we go now, I have never entered this cafe before? I don't like the attention.

 " Welcome to you too" she said, smilling, and then he realised, he kept doing things the wrong way.

"When will you ever learn, you just walked in, you haven't even greeted or asked me if I wanted to take something, you just want us to go. Please sit, we need to talk outside, someone might be following us and I wouldn't want them to think we went inside for any funny reason".

That sure caught him off guard, he looked at her before taking the seat opposite him.

"Are you in some kind of trouble? He asked, he was very worried now, she was not looking herself, she looked like she had been crying all day.

"Have you been crying? He asked, but she only placed her head down, she seem to want to hide her feelings, but not for Goodluck, he could already sense she was sad, even though she tried to smile. She didn't want to increase his heartbeat, by keeping quiet, so she started to tell

"Trouble is an understatement, I am in big shit. Can you tell I am pregnant? She asked him.

He stood up to look at her, he helped her get up to take a proper look at her before nodding his head in the negative. "I cannot tell, I don't know how pregnant women look, but If you are pregnant, how is that a problem? He asked, wondering where the problem is.

"That is because I don't know who impregnated me". She said that freely. Somehow, she feel she is talking to her older brother again. She was always free with Goodluck, he listens and understands her.

Now he didn't think he needed to relax his back on the single chair he was sitting, he sat up and faced her.

"You are joking right? He asked, but she only smiled wearily.

" I wish I am, and I wish I am also dreaming, but this is so true. Since I lost my baby, I hadn't allowed my husband to touch me which he had grudgingly agreed to, but two months ago I discovered I was pregnant, how that was possible I can't tell because I don't remember sleeping with anyone. My husband didn't do it, because he is really angry right now.

He thinks I cheated on him with you"

She said the last group of words ashamed to meet his eyes. As she said it, Goodluck blinked manytimes, it felt like he was dreaming, he could not believe what he was hearing.

She didn't want to bring him trouble, she knew he could never do a thing like that to her, she trusted him even more than she trusted herself.

Goodluck wanted her to say what she had in mind, but she was too shy or ashamed to say it so he helped her out.

"So you came to ask me, if I drugged you the last time you were at my place?

"Look Goody, not like I think you could do it, and I am really not here to ask you about it, I just need your help, I am carrying a child I don't know the father, I cannot remember sleeping with anyone, and I don't remember waking up in an unfamiliar place or passing out. I know you can help me, please help me find answers.

How can I be pregnant when it is the last thing I wanted right now?

And how can I not know the father, unless of course if this is a really long dream?

Goodluck was relieved she didn't accuse him of misbehaving because if she did, it would have really hurt him. Still she wanted to reassure her that he would never act in such a manner, he didn't do it all those times she was begging him to take her to bed, and be her first and only man, and he would definitely not do it now that she belonged to another man.

"Amy, I would never, ever, hurt you like that, you are too precious to me. That day I didn't hit your brother back because I know it would hurt you to see your brother hurt and I didn't want to hurt you. And now I really don't want to see you hurt, so I will put all my resources together to find the person behind this. But you need to do something for me.

I need the details of every person related to you, whom you have been in contact with and visited for the past three month. Let's start from there. When you get the details you can Email it to me instead of coming to visit, so that you don't incur more troubles on your path ok?

Amanda just nodded like a baby, she wanted to cry but she tried really hard to hold it back in order not to worry him, but he could read through her. She was falling inlove with him all over again, what he said to her about not wanting to see her hurt meant alot to her, and she counted herself lucky to be loved by someone like him.

"Now I don't want you to cry, just go back home and relax, let me take care of the rest from here. Do not leave any stone unturned, everybody is a suspect, pay close attention to everyone around you, if you see or hear anything suspicious don't hesitate to call or text me. I won't drive you home, I already called you a taxi. 

I will be in touch
