Chapter Three (Never had I known)

When I saw the empty holes my feelings were driving me to, I decided to entirely dissuade my feelings towards him.

I searched for him almost in all the holes of this city but didn't get to see him or anyone in his replica.

The worst was that I didn't even know his name. He never told me and I never got the chance to ask him.

When I almost though I lost him, he came back into show again when he coincidently helped me the second time with my misplaced smartphone and my Bank Teller card. What marveled me was the way he responsibly returned them to me without making funny use of them.

I loved the energies he exuded. I felt something deeper for him and he also felt such as well. He confessed that to me. I knew it was destiny trying to bring us together.

Warmly, I entered into a serious relationship with him. A relationship affair I thought would lead to marriage.

Just like father said, when you marry early and to the right person, you will enjoy. So, I saw that as an amazing opportunity to finally pen down dreamt achievement. Changing his life from just being a street cyclist to a boss man was the first step I took.

I gave him cars of his own, I bought lots of assets for him and other numerous big things. All that inflated my head was that eventually "Finally, the obsessed me met the right person and is going to marry early"

But as God was God, his real intentions towards me came openly exposed. He suddenly became so demanding. Lizzy warned me about him but I never cared. I was ready to give him all that he wanted so far he gives me all the love and attention I needed. Let's say, things didn't come up well for him. His hidden secret became secretly open.

It was then I realized that he had stalked me with his nice approaches all in the struggle to cat away with my father's wealth if eventually tie the knots.

The worst was that he lied about his true identity. It took divine intervention from the God of Heaven before I knew his name was actually Morris Mark and not the Fredrick Milton he made me believe. Gosh, I so hated him much. Not because of anything but because of the fact that he hustled with my feelings and my weakness.

I need not to be woken to the reality that I was madly in love with a total big scammer. A popular fraudster who wants to makes wealth for himself without necessarily working for it. But if you asked me, I was a big fool. Yes, I was a fool for allowing myself to be fooled.

I wonder what will happen if eventually we got married. Maybe he would wake up one morning and murder with the bed pillows in order to acquire the properties and as well green his selfish desires. All thanks to God, I saw that on time. But that was deeply heartbreaking for me to digest. Someone I trusted with everything in me! I just didn't know that love sometimes could be unfair.

My parents aren't heroes, they are just like me. I know loving is hard, It don't always work.

Well, I was able to control the emotional heartbreak I felt then till I strappingly got back on my feet.

That was life and men for you. They will always love you because of what they plan extracting from you. I forgive him and moved on. The last I did my background check on him, I heard the rumor that he was caught red in his crimes. Don't you think that sounded him right? Of course.

The only way it appalls me so much was that he got me cheaply into his deceit. I learnt my lessons. At least, I was lucky not have given him my virginity no matter how many times he demanded sex from me.

Hence after, I tightened loosened my guard especially being aware that there are many likes of Morris Mark out there waiting for the doors to be opened for them to scheme through. I refused to be deceived again, not even now or in the future.

Just before I could breathe between the spaces of weeks, I saw myself getting drowned with another relationship. This time, it was the provincial governor's son. His name was Derick Fabian.
