Chapter 53

"Yours is a good one, I can never forget the day I had my first kiss. it was kinda embarrassing and I know that you all will start laughing when I narrate the full story. Because you all know what actually happened- Gabriel said 

"Nah, we won't laugh. Just tell us how it went, that's what will make it more interesting and enjoyable"- Kelvin replied with a smile 

"Well, it was a girl I fell in love with back then in high school. She was like the perfect girl for me and I even feel so bad for letting her go

  She loved me more than anything in the world and she was ready to make sure that I got all the love and care I can ever wish for. And one day we decided to do the unspeakable

She has never kissed a guy before, so she revealed that fact to me one-day and I was kinda shy to tell her that I have never kissed a girl before. So we decided to do an experiment after school hours, I took her to the toilet, held her waist and gave her the kiss of her life 

  It was like a dream come true for me because at that moment, I was in cloud nine and I started feeling goosebumps all over my body"- Gabriel revealed 

"Wow, if your love for each other was indeed very strong. Then why did you break up with her?"- Kelvin asked 

"Well, I would actually take the blame for that issue because I was the one who shattered our relationship to pieces"- Gabriel replied with a sad face 

"How, please explain better let's understand"- I replied

"Our relationship however came to an end when she caught me cheating on her. She couldn't take bear the pain, so she broke up with me and swore never to look at me in the face again.

  I know the next question on your mind would be "what made you cheat on her". But like the old men would always say, "Temptation can come at any given time"- Gabriel replied

"So are you trying to say that you gave room to temptation or what?"- Kelvin interrupted

"Just allow me finish up or else you won't understand what truly transpired between us"- Gabriel replied with a warning

"I was deeply in love with her but my lust for another beautiful girl ended my romantic relationship. Aside my girlfriend, there was this girl that I usually lust after back then in school.

  She was very hot and sexy to the extent that I often stare at her pictures for hours without blinking. So one day I got a chance to talk to her, and to my surprise, she had a crush on me. I told her that I was already in a relationship with another girl, but she refused to take "No" for an answer

She began to make romantic advances towards me and based on the fact that I was lusting after her, I usually fall prey to her seductive ways. Until the very day that my girlfriend caught me red handed trying to make out with this new girl

  She burst into tears and ran out immediately, I cashed after her like my life depended on it but she wasn't ready to hear any explanation from me. She broke up with me at the spot and told me to avoid her for the rest of my life"- Gabriel replied with his jaw in his hands

The break up must have hit him hard to the extent that even feels sad when narrating the issue. Why would you cheat on a girl you truly love because of a mere seductive approach. Well, I won't blame him because it can happen to anyone

  Nobody is above temptation, it can come at anytime and at any day. I do feel sorry for him 

"I am really sorry about your previous relationship. Do you still have any intention to get back with her in the nearest future or you both have decided to move on with your lives?"- I asked 

"She boldly told me not to ever come close to her again in my entire life, I do love her but it's of no use and I guess she might already be dating someone else.

  I think it's best we move on with our lives because I doubt if she still thinks about me"- Gabriel replied

"I thought this would be a funny story at first, but it turns out to be sad at the end. I am really sorry for this bro, hope you find another girl

  But by the way, can you please tell me the name of your ex- girlfriend. I may know her, you never can tell"- Kelvin replied with a smile 

"Her name is Grace Williams. She was the only girl who truly loved me for who I am not what I have.

  It would be hard to forget a woman like that"- Gabriel replied while whipping the little tear drops in his eyes 

I wasn't concerned about his tears, the only thing that mattered to me most was the name he mentioned right now. That's the name of the secretary who tried to seduce and blackmail me at the same time.

  I felt so bad when I learnt that she once dated my close friend. I won't mention anything about what happened between I and his ex-girlfriend, don't want to spoil that good memories. And that would also make me a bad friend, because he would forever keep the thought that his ex-girlfriend tried to blackmail him and believe me when I say that's the last thing on my mind at this point

We all remained silent for a while before we heard a knock on the door, maybe it's Alexia and her boyfriend

"What's up buddies. Decided to stop by and tell you guys that there is a swimming pool party downstairs.  This would be the perfect time to enjoy ourselves like never before"- Alexia spoke out immediately she entered the room

"Swimming pool party?"- Gabriel asked looking somehow confused 

"Yeah, there is little swimming pool party downstairs and we figured out that we should call you both down so that we can all have fun together or what do you think"- Micheal replied

"But I don't know how to swim at all, I will just drown down there for sure and I that can be very embarrassing you know"- Gabriel replied with a funny look on his face 

"Don't worry. We won't allow you drown"- Michael replied with a smile 

We all went downstairs after the short conversation and I was quite surprised by the number of people that I saw at the swimming pool. They were much and I do feel shy whenever I am in the midst of crowds 

  But I just need to get over it if I really want to have fun for a While

"Wow, there are a lot of cute boys here. Wish I could walk up to them and talk for a while"- Alexia spoke out loud

Micheal looked at her for a while, he was obviously jealous that Alexia was falling in love with some of the cute boys. And honestly speaking, they are very cute 

  But it's kinda weird for a guy to be crushing on another guy, so I discarded that thought immediately

I walked away from them and went to relax by the swimming pool and my eyes was filled with so much beautiful ladies. And at that moment, I couldn't help but stare at one of the beautiful ladies who was relaxing close to me 

"Hi beautiful lady. Guess you are enjoying the party"- I called out to the lady 

"Yes, I'm enjoying every bit of it. What about you"- She asked 

"The party is actually nice if I should say. Normally am not a fan of parties, so I don't even know what to say right now"- I replied, looking a bit shy 

"That's hilarious, guess you are not use to parties like this"- She replied while staring directly into my eyes 

"I'm a bit shy whenever am around large crowds and I don't want to do anything funny, so that's why I try my best to avoid parties. But I and my friends are on vacation and they dragged me from my room to this very place"- I said

She smiled while trying to take a sip from her apple juice 

"That's okay"- She replied with a smile 

"Yeah. My name is Andrew by the way, and what brings you to this great city if I may ask"- I replied trying to lean close to her 

"Nice name you got there, mine is Sarah and I came to Atlanta to spend some quality time before resuming my duties at work"- She replied

"That's awesome, let me guess. You reside in New York right"- I replied with a smile 

"Not at all. I reside in Nigeria and I also work there too"- She replied

I was quite surprised by her reply, never knew that Nigeria had such kind of beautiful girls around. I would never have believed she was from Nigeria if she hadn't told me with her own mouth.

  I would really love to know more about her, at least it won't hurt to know where she lives in Nigeria, so that if I migrate over there, I would find someone to call a friend

"Wow, I find it hard to believe that such a rare beauty like yours would be found in a country like Nigeria"- I replied

She looked at me for a while, I guess she was surprised by my last reply

"How do you mean, do you think girls from Nigeria aren't beautiful enough"- She replied, looking a bit serious this time 

"Not at all. I don't mean it that way, I am only surprised that you are from Nigeria.

  Because you actually look like an American lady"- I replied, trying not to make her angry 

"Oh I see. So where do you reside and what do you do for a living"- She asked 

"Well. I reside in New York and I work as manager in a popular game company"- O replied

"May I know the name of this game company?"- She asked with a smile 

"The name of the company is Stark's Game Empire. They produce some of the best games you can ever come across on google playstore"- I replied

"That's interesting. I would check out the company later when I get to my room"- She replied

"That's no big deal. So when will you head back to Nigeria?"- I asked 

"Why are you asking for that information?. Do you have anything in mind that I need to know"- She asked, looking so serious at this point

Guess she is feeling a little bit uncomfortable with my questions. Thought I could know her better, but it seems she is scared to reveal too much about herself.

"Relax pretty lady. I just want to know more about you so that we can be friends"- I replied with a smile 

"Alright then. I would head back to my country in four weeks time, any problem with that?"- She asked 

"Not at all my pretty angel. So where do you work by the way and what kind of job do you do?"- I asked while trying to relax my back on the soft chair

"Well, I work as a banker in Nigeria and I do own some businesses of my own to support my job"- She replied

"What's up bro. How are you enjoying the party"- Kelvin interrupted while trying to get my attention

"The party is going well, can we talk later bro. I am in the middle of something right now"- I replied, trying to politely drive Kelvin away

"Oh I see. Seems you have found a new friend. Hi there"- Kelvin replied, trying to greet Sarah
