Chapter 63

Chapter 63

I thought he loved me, but I never knew he was only playing with my emotions. We usually hang out together at the beach, eat in luxury restaurants and even lodge in magnificent hotels. 

  He did all these, so that he could win my heart and also win the grand prize of $300k. When I finished reading everything, I fell to the ground like someone who was struck by lightening, I couldn't even move my body. The shock I felt that day can be compared to none, tears flowed down my eyes

And when he finally came out of the bathroom, he was surprised to see me on the floor crying. He thought I received a call from someone who gave told me something bad until he checked his phone and saw that I have already read all his messages and what's app chat. I was badly waiting for what he wanted to say at that moment, so that I could rain down all sorts of insults on him and his entire generation, but he simply dressed up and walk out of the door like nothing happened.

  He blocked my line and never return to the apartment he rented for the both of us. And on a faithful day, someone came to pack most of his belongings, the person claimed to be his brother. And that's how he left my heartbroken and worn out"- Alexia replied, looking so tired 

I felt so sad after listening to her story, indeed people are really heartless in this world. And it pains me that nothing cak be done to eradicate these people from the face of the earth.

  Micheal stared at his girlfriend like someone who was watching a Hollywood movie. I guess he was quite surprised by what his girlfriend had passed through in the course of her relationship journey

"I'm deeply sorry babe. I know this guy broke your heart, but thank God you found me at some point in your life.

   I can't say for sure if I would ever do something like that in the future, but I will do my best to care and love you for who you are. Others may think you are proud but to me, you are just perfect and beautiful"- Micheal replied, while leaning forward to give Alexia a romantic kiss in the lips 

Now I'm feeling jealous at this point, kissing your partner in front of someone who is single is definitely not the right thing to do in my own perspective. But let me allow them to carry on for now

"Thank you dear, I know you won't be like my ex-boyfriend. I have tested you in so many ways that you can't possibly imagine.

  And to my surprise, you seem to pass all these test with ease, and this gives me the impression that you are the right person for me"- She replied with a smile 

"That's okay. But how do you normally set this so called test.

  Do you think I will ever cheat on you?"- Michael asked jokingly

"You can't even cheat on me no matter how bad you want to. I can read you like a book and I do set secret test to confirm if anything is not in place.

  So that I can be fully rest assured that I don't end up heartbroken ever again"- She replied

"Seems your ex-boyfriend has taught you a vital lesson about young boys like us. That's perfect by the way and frankly speaking, you actually gained a lot from that previous relationship of yours"- I interrupted

"How do you mean"- Alexia and Michael asked at the same time 

It looks like they weren't expecting that part at all. But I would however break it down for them, so that they can fully understand what I'm about to say 

"Well, you might think that you were the one who lost in the relationship. But you actually gained a lot, first of all, the guy spent a lot of money to pamper you, take you to lovely places like restaurants and stuffs.

  I'm probably sure you didn't spend much money in your former relationship. But above all, you were able to gain wisdom about such kind of people"- I replied

"I don't really understand, please go deeper"- She replied

"What I'm saying is that you were able to gain knowledge on how to know if a guy is a playboy or not. And you can even detect if a guy is capable of cheating on you or not, because you said you normally set some secret test for Micheal and he seems to pass all of them without stress.

  So in true essence, you actually got exposed to a lot of things that has made you far more wiser than before"- I replied

"Hmmm, you are right. My ex-boyfriend made me understand some many things that most cheating partners do carry out to cover their tracks. 

  Seems I didn't lose much at all, just that I ended up being emotional broken for months till I found this handsome dude sitting close to me"- She replied with a smile, while staring into the eyes or Michael

"So do you mind sharing some of these secret test that you always set me?"- Michael asked 

"Sorry, I can't tell you that. Because if I do, you will find new ways and I don't want that at all.

  So it's better to leave you in the dark where I can still find, than show you the light and you end up carving out another new strategy for yourself"- She replied

"Alright then, let's head back to your own story Andrew. What happened when you caught your temporary girlfriend in the act?"- Michael asked with his two ear lops standing like an antenna

"When I saw her kissing those two guys, I felts so sad and I nearly collapsed at that point because I replied love this girl beyond any reasonable doubt. She was like this girl of my dreams.

  I later summoned courage to walk up to her and tell a piece of my mind only to find out that the two guys where seniors. They blocked me on my way and asked me to back to where I was coming from or else they would beat hell out of me. 

I tired to showcase my fighting skills by giving one of them a punch on the face, but the beating I received landed me in the hospital. My mom was completely angry by the fact that I got bullied in school, so she went to see the parents of the two guys, they later apologized. But the painful part of it all was when she later walked up to me and told me that she was no longer interested in the relationship.

  She said she wasn't really in love with me, and it then dawned on me that she was only playing with my feelings. Ever since then, I find it hard to get in a relationship with any girl that I approach, because I don't want anyone to toil with my feelings ever again"- I replied

"Wow, that's harsh. But anyways, you still have to get into a relationship some day or else you want to end up as a Catholic priest who will never get married throughout his stay on earth"- Michael replied while bursting into laughter

"Be serious for once young man. Well don't mind silly Micheal over here, I believe you will find the right girl who would love you more than anything in the world.

  All you need is time, trust me, you will find the right fish to catch"- She replied with a smile 

I was getting bored up at this point, and we haven't discussed about the so called meeting that Kelvin told me about few hours ago 

"I think it's time we have a meeting about our schedule for this week."- I replied, trying to change the topic

"Yeah, that's right. Let's go to the living room and discuss it with the others"- Alexia replied

We all walked to the living room and found Gabriel and Kelvin sleeping on the couch, didn't they sleep at night 

"Wake up old men. What happened, didn't you guys get enough sleep last night?"- Micheal asked 

They stood up from the couch to stretch the bodies for a while before sitting back to see what's happening

"So why did you wake us from our beautiful sleep. I had a dream where I was being crowned as the king of England. And now you all have woke me up from the beautiful experience"- Kelvin said 

We all burst into laughter, what a crazy dream 

"Well, sorry to wake you up. But I think we need to discuss about how the rest of our vacation is going to be 

  What are we going to do next, start bringing out some good ideas guys"- I called out to everyone

"Why are you such in a hurry about our plans for the rest of the vacation, I thought you wanted this vacation to the best moments of your life with us"- Gabriel called out to me 

"Yes. But I want to hasten up everything so that we can all go back home on time. I fear that my mom won't be able to keep the secret about my location for long.

  My dad is seriously trying to squeeze out that particular information from her through some fake romantic gestures, my mom doesn't understand that man the way I do"- I replied

"This same issue again, thought we have forgotten all about it"- Micheal replied

"Yeah, I actually forgot about it too until this moment. So let's plan where are going to visit next.

  I think we should hit the beach, then do other stuffs in the process or what do you guys think?"- I asked 

"Going to the beach sounds like a good idea, but I think we should do that tomorrow. Because I don't feel in the mood of leaving the house right now"- Kelvin replied

"Oh okay. If that's the case, then we can all agree that we would go to the beach tomorrow, visit the museum next tomorrow and probably do some sky diving later on"- I replied

They all remained quiet for a while, probably thinking about everything that I have said 

"Did you just say sky diving?"- Alexia asked, looking a bit uncomfortable

"Yes. We are going to do some sky diving together, it gonna be fun"- I replied with a smile 

"I know it's fun, but I'm really scared of heights. The last time I did sky diving, I nearly passed out in the sky"- She replied

We all burst into laughter again on hearing those words, how on earth would you pass out in the sky. That's instant death on his own, because you will land in a terrible way 

  But it seems most of them here are not really familiar with sky diving. But nevertheless, we will all practice before engaging in the real act 

"Don't worry guys. We can scrap out that idea if you want"- I replied, trying to force out some reactions from them

"No, i I think sky diving is a great idea. We just need to practice, that's all"- Gabriel replied

"So where are we going to find a sky diving coach or something like that?"- Kelvin asked 

"We will search online, it's not that hard to find someone who is a sky diving coach. I'm pretty sure they are plenty on Facebook or Instagram"- I replied

"But what if we all sky dive and land in a volcano or lake. How are we going to survive"- Michael asked

"Stop having crazy imaginations my friend, nothing would ever go wrong, I can assure you that" I replied, directing my attention to Micheal

"But tomorrow, we are going to hit the beach and probably go for a swim in the ocean"- I replied jokingly

"That's not a problem at all, if only you don't end up in a sharks stomach"- Alexia replied with a smile
