He Was really nice, young and had Just saved Her Life. Her Mum was pleased to finally Meet Him, Dad was glad that He was a Believer Like Him, Sis was Happy She finally Changed Her Mind about guys, relationship and even marriage, and was happy She decided to have a real relationship instead of her cold flings (as mum calls it). Bro didn't really like Him at first but when He saw how happy He made Her, he relaxed and decided to be happy for Her newly found butterflies.

It was too good to be true, things were happening soo fast and He was more than a fairytale come to pass. Mum was already fixing wedding dates, Dad was calling the Umunna, Sis was already telling all her friends about her brother-in-law to be and Bro was preparing himself for his first family wedding. But then It dawned on Her that as much as he tried to make her happy, She wasn't really happy and felt something was wrong. His family was welcoming, his sister was annoyingly sweet and his brothers were amazing . Yet, something was missing, a shadow lurked somewhere, some stories didn't fit, names were mismatched. Yes, she had a hunch and something was wrong.

Confrontations didn't help, trust was broken, belief was shattered, behaviours changed, denial was uptight and ever ready to show its face. Her Hunch was ever right and ever strong. Then the calls started diminishing, the magic words which once melted and yet strengthened hearts now sounded feeble, fainty and like a mockery to Her very own existence, the only thing left was lust, an insatiable desire to quilt and hide Her innermost insecurity, it was no more love making than It was a one night stand or a convenience hook up to Her. Feelings were detached, He denied the shadows existence, blamed it on family and called HER a stalker. Fingers which were once pointed at now became the pointer, silence became the order of the day, horniness became their only reason for knowing what love was left of them. Her heart which once loved, now felt irritated.

Family's heart was to be considered, She shivered at the thought of telling mum that Her daughter was right about relationships and marriage yet again, hate to tell dad that the believer was a fine deceiver, bereaved to tell bro that She finally learnt to trust but now it's crushed and can never trust again. She couldn't bear the thought of telling sis that her little romance novels will always be in Her Head and never in her life. All had to be concealed for their sake, and Pretense had to set in. A make-believe for those who still needed to believe.

Life was easier after that, no more rants about how She'll end up being a spinster all Her life, no more guesses about Her sexual orientation (lesbian, Bisexual or straight like a normal girl). Still the shadow lurked, denials were still in the air but this time Her heart had given up already, it no longer cared, as it just laid in wait for the right time to leave. Then It came, the shadow finally showed it's face, this time it was a wedding video and She was never invited. Her heart was finally grateful, and as always, Her hunch was right. It could now walk away freely with a good story, that the one it once cared for was deep into another.
The Believer went back to his vomit. Having ran out of strings to twist, he swallowed his words as Denial which was once his best man was out of his reach. He never got the reaction he expected from Her, he was humbled by her calmness and shocked at her humor as She bid him goodbye and wished him well.

Truth Is, Her pain was over, Her Heart was Glad and settled, It was finally at Peace. Now She can tell Mom the story without them feeling she walked out again on a good man. She was at peace knowing that she tried to make it work, fulfilled knowing once again that All paths never led to the same direction. Now she can live her life with all she learnt. She has no fear about loving, because she knows she'll always love but never in the way Her family and society expects, and celebrates those who have and still aspire to. Her trust is once again with Her, Her Life is back again, Love to her is to be seen and expressed everyday with no fixed attachments.

Yeah, She dated a Married Man, She brought Him into her Family and He had dined with them. Strangely, She didn't feel betrayed, she didn't feel stupid, She only felt Peace, Gratitude and Happiness Once again. She finally got her life back. A life free of doubts, Heartaches, unending brainstorming and puzzles. Now She has To live For Herself, Her Dreams and All She holds Dear to Her existence...
