You Are The Reason

“Who are you to tell me that? I can go with any girl I like. You see that babe? I go f**K her?” The young man said to K telling him he was definitely going to get Lanre. K got angry and punched him in the face. This time he kept throwing punches at him nonstop. Lanre tried to come down from the car to stop K only to realise the car was locked.

The young man managed to get away from K’s aggressive punch. He pushed K to the ground and gave him a counter attack. Lanre puts her hands on her head feeling frustrated that K was into this fight and that she could not do anything.

Meanwhile those who have been watching the fight only decided to separate the guys when they saw that the fight was getting heated and if no one intervenes, something bad may occur. But there were still those agitating for them to be left alone to fight. Lanre was relieved when the young man was pulled away by those gathered there and K came back to the car. She noticed the bruises on his face when he turned on the light.

“This dark beauty god is going to have some purple damage to his face”. Lanre said not really knowing what else to say. She could not even scold him because he was fighting for her just now.

K grabbed Lanre and kissed her. He took her unaware as she was not expecting him to do that.

“I thought it was okay until now. Lanre I will send you out of the country and you will get rid of the pregnancy. I will try to settle things out and come for you later”. K said. He was no longer going to let Christian have her. He just realised he won’t be able to stand it.

Lanre just looked at K in shock. Was he actually saying that? He wants her to abort the pregnancy, why?

Lanre held K’s hand stopping him from starting up the car. She told him she would get down first. And when K asked her why, she told him it was because she needed to go inside. They were not going the same way. K told her he was taking her away. Lanre laughed. Even from the way she laughed, one could tell she felt mocked. She spits at K.

“Kehinde, may you not be unfortunate in your life o! Are you a bastard? No wait! I normally don’t like insulting people in this manner, but shey oya werey ni?” Are you crazy?” Lanre said to K venting out her anger on him. He asked her why she was being this way.

“Kehinde, you! You are the reason I’m being this way Kehinde. You want me to kill my unborn child for someone like you with whom I have no hope of a future. I mean you could just dump me along the way you do not care about an innocent child yet to be born”. Lanre said to Kehinde with tears streaming down her cheeks.
