Sorry You Ever Got Hurt!

“Kehinde, I don’t know what you heard with your ears, but why would I say such a thing? You don’t even look like someone who could get a woman pregnant! I mean hello! You possibly can’t get a woman pregnant. You are not man enough”. Lanre said to K. All these was just so he could stop and let her go. But she had hurt him a million times over with just that statement. K broke down like one who just got ice poured on him. He sat down on the floor and placed a hand on his head. He looked at Lanre distantly with his eyes. He could not even say a word to her. He just looked speechless.

“Now that you have been cleared the truth, I think I would need the key to open that door”. Lanre said. K just looked at her without uttering a word. But he didn’t give her the key either. She kept asking for it but he didn’t give it to her. Instead he told her to talk the door down the way she just did to him. Lanre clenched her teeth. She actually did broke him.

“Kehinde please stop this nonsense and let me go! I don’t know why you are fond of doing this same shit over and over again”. Lanre said.

“Then get out of my head! Get out of my head and out of my mind Lanre. Can you do that? Of course you can’t! You can’t even make me stop loving you. I’m stuck in the thoughts of you. Can you help me out of this?” K said to Lanre having stood back on his feet.

“Lanre I don’t know what you were talking about saying I paid you off, neither can I say I know how you felt when that happened. But please, can you just let me into your life Lanre. I won’t treat you like shit. Even if I mess up at some point, I will try to make amends cause I can’t promise you that I’m perfect. Please be my oremi”. Kehinde said. Lanre turned away from him. She covered her ears trying to stop the voice within her telling her to give in and just tell him the truth. She was not going to let him come into her life easily. She is not that weak to let him in so easily.

“Olanrewaju!” K called.

“I told you that you can’t father a child and you are still confessing love? What type of a fool are you?” Lanre asked turning back to face K again.

“Stop it Lanre! I do not tolerated such insult”. K said to her. He was obviously angry but was trying to control it. Lanre asked him if the sought of insult he tolerate is being paid off.

Lanre was bent on making him let go of her. So she was willing to say anything to hurt him just to achieve her aim.

“I am sorry you ever got hurt because of me. Let us get past that now, please!” K pleaded.
