Cynthia

She excused her friend and her mother, telling them that she wanted to go and freshen up and that she would come back.

Sophia quickly dropped her bag and rushed to the kitchen to check what her mother had cooked.

"Mum, I've missed your delicious meal," she said as she packed some food into her mouth.

Her mother smiled, and she saw her daughter eating hungrily.

My daughter, I've come to discuss something important to you. How are you? Do you still have hatred for me because of our past relationship? " Her mother asked

I'm fine, mum. I'm trying to let go, but it keeps affecting me. She said calmly

Is there something I need to know? "Your mood changed when I talked," her mother asked curiously.

"It's nothing special, mum; there's someone I helped sew for, and on our first date, he proposed to me, but because of what I've been through, I said no, leaving him there because I'm embarrassed."Since then, he had been calling me, but I'm afraid I could not bring myself to face him, "she explained apologetically.

It's alright, you will get over it. And for him to be calling you, meant that he truly loved you. "Just free your mind to love again," her mother advised.

"Thanks, mum." She said calmly.

There was silence for a moment.

"Tell me about him; what does he do?" Mrs. Bernard asked.

Hunn, she is the company's CEO." is the son of the popular Mr. Benson," she said, looking at her mother's reaction. To her surprise, her mother just smiled and raised her eyebrows.

"Wow! What do you meet? And do you love him? "she asked.

She explained, "I was connected to him through his friend to make clothes for him, so it's through that he knows me."

"Alright, but be careful and allow your heart to love again," she advised her daughter.

Sophia thanked her mother and they talked about other things.

As they were about to lock the door, her friend came back with a bowl of pepper soup for her mother.

"My daughter, thanks much. How are you? "Hope you are hearing from your parents too." Mrs. Bernard asked.

I'm fine, ma, and my parents too are fine. I went home two weeks ago to check them. Tracy said as she sat beside her friend.

Always keep an eye on them.

Mrs. Bernard began to tell her daughter and her friend many things about life and relationships.

She encourages them to forget about the past and continue with their lives. They should also be on good behavior and never bite more than they can chew.

She explained further by telling them her own experience with relationships and even what she faced in her few years of marriage.

By the time Mrs. Bernard finished her talk, Sophia and Tracy were always dosing. Tracy left for her apartment.

As Sophia was about to sleep, her phone beeped and she opened the message. But the person hides his or her number. Who could this person be? She asked nobody in particular. She thought about it and did not know when to wake up.

..

Wilson finished work that day and decided to get flowers for Sophia on his way to her shop. He thought that even if he didn't meet her in the shop, he would still drop it off at the corner of her shop the way he did the other day.

He got to the flower shop and bought beautiful flowers and cards, but decided not to write his name on them yet.

He got to his car and continued his journey. As he drove to the next junction, he saw a beautiful figure putting on a red dress, revealing her cleavage, waving for him to stop the car. He thought of who the person could be and stopped the car. He wound down the car and was surprised at who was in front of her.

Cynthia! What are you doing here? What do you want from me? " He said this as he was about to kick the car.

Wilson! Why do you hate me so much? After all that we have done together, "she said

Cynthia spotted the flowers in his car and laughed.

"So you already have another person? You're deceiving me. I will see her now if she is better than me," she said sarcastically.

"It's none of your business, and if I see you near me again or my girl, you will regret it." He replied, and zoomed off.

Wilson! Don't do that to me? I still love you. " She screamed as Wilson's car was in sight.

Wilson was a bit scared of Cynthia, thinking she could plan to spoil the relationship he was about to build. He concluded in his mind that he was done with all the promiscuous attitude.

Wilson had the thought of calling Sophia if she would pick up her call.

He called two times, and this time around, she picked up her call.

Hello, I heard a tiny voice on the other end. Wilson quickly said he was sorry and asked if he could see her in her shop. And he heard "alright" on the other end.

Wilson was very happy. He could not believe it. He turned on the music and began to dance as he was driving. Even though he didn't tell Sophia that he would be coming that day, he said in his mind that his visit would catch her unawares.

As he was about to get to Sophia's shop, he discovered a car was following him, and the thought of Cynthia quickly rushed into his mind. So he concluded that it was not wise to stop at Sophia's shop that day, that the person could be Cynthia, and he was scared that he could spoil the relationship he was about to build.

Instead of Wilson turning right where Sophia's shop is, he just drove straight and discovered that the person was still following him, so he halted the car. The car follows him, but not very fast beside his car. Wilson tried to check who was in the car, and he discovered somebody was bending down, a lady. He saw the hair and the clothes she had put on.

He tried to remember who he saw that day putting on that dress. He continued his journey home, thinking that the person could still follow him. It pained him that he could not drop the flowers off at Sophia's shop. But he was happy that he observed the car following him on time because it could lead to a threat to Sophia and she wouldn't want to listen to him again. He continued his journey home.
