Meet a Debia

"Osima, Osima ," some one just woke me up from my thoughts. Thank goodness I wanted to be out of it already but I have become a slave to my own thoughts. It always feels so good strolling in my thoughts of how sweet by and by we had chatted.

"Osima," I heard my name again. That must be Ela. We had planned to attend a friend's birthday party together. How could I have forgotten? I reluctantly went to open the door.

"Osima, why are you not dress? Don't you know what time it is already? You have been acting so strange of late. Am sure that guy must have cast a spell on you. We need to go and see idibia so that he can revoke whatever that guy has casteth on you. Otherwise your life will be doomed.. ". My friend bla so much, that is Ela for you, sometimes I can not even keep up with her speech.

" I told you I don't believe in Debia," I managed to mutter.

Ela was mostly superstitious and would consult the debias for anything. She is one of those people who believe that the idebias have supernatural personality and can see both things in the spirit and physical. To them the idebias can change whatever you want in the spirit and have it manifest in physical.

But not me. I can never believe such nonsense. As far as I am concerned, the debias are bunch of thieves spiritualist who takes advantage of their victims, exploiting them of their hard earned money. I can never fall for their scheme.

"you need to help yourself," Ela persuaded. I shook my head, once Ela starts she seems to not hear anything I say. "I heard there is a new idebia down the street. We can ask him to help you find where this man of yours is if you are that into him but do you think he will want to see you as well?" As expected Ela continues to speak.

"Ela you know my stance with debias, I don't believe in them. They are bunch of explorers. Exploiting people of their hard earned money. I can never fall for their lies. Besides, what is the point he doesn't even know that I exist nor care to want to see me. I was just a fool to think that we had a connection. If only my heart was not so stupid to imagine the unimaginable, I wouldn't have fallen for his spell, " I complained to Ela but the last sentence was only my thoughts.

" How can you be so sure?" Ela cut into my thoughts. I knew she was surprised about my declaration. Bofore now, I would usually sound sure, I believed I share similar feelings with my mistery lover. Ela must be wondering What got into me?,

" Well I ran into him yesterday…" I paused to observe Ela's reaction.

"You saw who? What did he say? Where? Was he mean to you? What was his reaction? Say something Osima.." Ela asked so many questions at a time.

"He didn't care," I sigh, I felt like a fool saying this but I needed to talk to someone.

"What do you mean he didn't care? Did you both talk? What did he say?" Ela wanted to get the full detail. She couldn't believe I could keep such an important event from her. She has rendered her shoulders to me when ever I cry ever since I met this mistery lover of mine. My encounter with him has expose the weak, unreasonable side of me that no one knew. If I met him, Ela did not want to miss a detail of our meeting. She has always known that mistery guy meant no good and was not worth a second thought but she knew I would never listen but hopes that I would be over him now that he has told me that he doesn't care. "Talk to me Osima, I hope we can all move on now that he told you that he doesn't want you," Ela said.

"He didn't know I was there," I whispered but Ela heard me.

"What! What do you mean he didn't Know you were there?" Ela widden her eyes as though she wanted them to fall off its sockets.

"Who do I introduce myself to be?imagine going to him and introduce my self? I paused and imagine the scene in my head." hey, am the girl you have chatted with over five months ago and since that meeting, I have been looking forward to seeing you again '' silly me I thought and laughed at my imagination." besides he was having a good time with his lover when i saw him, " I added after the short pause.

"What do you mean his lover?" Ela was curious. I almost slapped my mouth for saying this, I did not want to go back to the moment of disappointment. But since I already mentioned it I had to answer her.

"Well, he was with someone that seems to be his wife or fiance or maybe a girl friend but certainly not a co bus passager as I am. The look of how they were tells it all," I replied feeling very stupid.

"Oh poor Osima, you need to move on already girl. More reasons you can't miss this party for anything in the world. There are going to be a lot of eligible bachelor there. Who knows you may just happen to meet your prince charming there," She comforted me.

*haha. We both laugh as I sluggishly came down from my bed to have a quick shower. " What can I do without a friend like you!!" I commended Ela. Ela frowned and turned to help me pick what to wear but not before I caught the blushing smile on one side of her face. She always knew how to cheer me up at my worst moments. I did not want to miss this party, Ela was right, it was time to move on.
