Chapter 07

Rose had actually hung up and then called back without hiding her number. Before I resumed the call, my sister had taken the cell phone and turned on the recorder.

—Yes Rose, you said...

— Richy, are you done with your bullshit? What you don't know is that you are and you will remain my man. Carine was really angry and wanted to answer her, which I refused by waving her. She goes out and calls Bliss. They are all finally with me right now and I was thinking about what I was going to answer this Rose because I was losing the lexicon. She threatens me this girl...

-OK Rose I understood. Is there anything else?

—Yes, I'm not finished yet. If you dare to ask for another woman's hand, or marry another woman, know that you will not live on this earth with her.

—You don't scare me. Good night!

—Who do you wish good night? I don't need your wish.

—Oh, I'll take it back. You didn't even deserve it. I had left the cell phone to my sisters and left the kitchen.

I sweat with anger...

My parents came back and my sisters had told them everything they had seen at Rose's and what Rose had said. They even played the recording of the discussion I had with Rose on the phone. My father had come to see me in my room and had given me some advice from father and my mother but they wouldn't like me to go away.

—Father, Mother, rest assured! I'm going to change my air since this situation really hits my nerves. Don't worry!

They take me in their arms and everyone returns to bed.

The next day.

Very early in the morning I set off and I was only thinking about my life everything that had happened to me. I really loved Rose with all my heart and that's what she did to me. I didn't even know if one day I was going to fall in love, because loving is really good but sometimes we saw love as building a house in the middle of the ocean. The latter can collapse at any time. I was driving but I didn't feel I had the wheel. I didn't feel anymore.

The images of what I had seen at Rose still came back to me. It was as if I was still living the scenes. Rose had removed everything in me, I no longer had love of neighbor where I was. I saw the woman as poison. My aunt had always told me that not all women are the same. I really love my mother, my aunt and also my sisters. They represent a pious woman. My father always told me that after God, it's the woman and some love music values the woman. Why do some of them make people suffer? I was always in my thoughts to the point where I had passed the house without knowing it.

I went down and wanting to get my car inside, I saw a girl. The latter ran in all directions. I looked at her through my rear-view mirror and saw her stop with a gentleman as if she knew him. But he had not made it important to him. I don't know her and I think she needs help. I wanted to ignore it to go home but a superhuman force was holding me back. The girl had collapsed on the floor crying. I got out of the vehicle and came to her.

—Good evening lady! How are you? Excuse me for the inconvenience! I would like to know what's happening to you. Maybe I can help you.

The girl didn't want to talk to me and after insisting, she ended up spitting the piece.

– It's... She's my mother...

—Your mother? What does she have?

—Sir, my mother is really suffering and I don't know how to take her to the hospital. I did everything: prepare herbal teas and others but his health is getting worse day by day. But I don't know why I'm telling you all this excuse me a lot.

She wanted to leave me after finishing talking but I had arrested her.

- Why do you want to leave when your mother's health is in danger? We don't know each other but everything at the beginning. What are you called??

—Naomie, my name is Naomie, excuse me for behaved like this.

—There is nothing to excuse. Can you take me home?

—Yes sir, it's right next door.

– OK, let's go then

—How sir?

- Get in the car!

—No sir, I can't because I don't know you.

—Naomie you are perfectly right but I'm not someone who could hurt you. I came to live in this house because it's my father the owner so I'm not a stranger here. Get on up! Your mother is waiting for us.

Naomie got into the car and we went home. I was really surprised to see the house in which she lived with her mother; a real slum. I got out of the car to go to the room where her mother was and she was lamenting on the floor. I asked Naomie to help me and she and I brought her mother into the car. She too had gone up and quickly we went to the nearest hospital.

Once in the hospital, the doctors began their work. Naomie was still in tears. I wanted to get closer to her to calm her down but I hold back. I always thought of Rose and everything she had done to me. I was wondering if Naomie too would not turn against me once her mother is healthy. But the way she cried reminds me of my sisters and I was forced to go to her.

—Why have you been crying since the moment I met you? Will I be able to have a smile from you?

—Sir, I'm afraid that my mother will leave me alone. I only have her in this life. My father left us when I was 15 years old. Since all this time, she alone has taken care of me. In fact, it is because of me that my mother is suffering because she took all the money we earn on each harvest if we sow corn and others so that I could have my BAC. Now I am admitted and here she is suffering. She has no more money to treat herself because of me, my BAC. Our father died because of family inheritance problems and his brothers sent us back from my father's house. Sir, it was only my father's land that they left us. I'm afraid, I'm really afraid.
