Goodbye

Arike’s POV

Bamidele turned to face her.

"It's not what you think..." She added.

"So what should I think?" He asked.

"It's my fault." She said.

I looked up at her. Now she wants to take all the blame.

"I was the one who pestered her to give you a chance.."

"So it was against her will to date me?"

"Kind off.." she scratched her neck.

That was partly untrue.

He shook his head. "You know what? I think this is where I have to accept the break up."

"I am sorry." I mumbled again.

"Can you stop saying sorry?!" He snapped.

"Calm down Bamidele..." Busayomi cautioned him in a soft tone. "I know you are hurting but -"

He interrupted her. "Well..I hope you have a good life abroad,Arike."

One last look at me and then he was on his way out. Bamidele was heartbroken but he did a great job at hiding it.

Busayomi hugged after he left.

"Don't worry everything will be fine..soon."

I hope everything will be fine soon.
