CHAPTER SEVEN

You are sick!! I spat.
Aren't you ashamed of yourself?
i really pity your girlfriend.
He just stared at me and burst out laughing which pissed me off more.

I like you best when you are angry,he said.

I stood up to go.
Let's meet tomorrow,I said.
I don't really wish to continue right now.
I left immediately without glancing backwards.
I was still fuming when I entered my apartment.
The guts of that idiot!!! I muttered.

Hi baby,my roommate called as she came out from the bathroom.
she looked at my face and said
What got you so riled up,babe?
Did you quarrel with anyone?
I told her what transpired between Jared and I and she burst out laughing.

What's so funny? I asked.
Please don't tell me you are on his side.
Nope,she said amidst the laughter.
its kinda funny, you know?
I thought he was your enemy.
maybe he likes you,who knows.
Like hell he does,I replied.
How is your project going? I asked.
Very well,she said.
My partner is really smart and hot too, she said grinning.
Hmmm...don't tell me you are already tripping, I said smiling.
maybe,she said smiling.
Unlike you, I don't mind having a boyfriend.

Goodluck with that,I said.

I'm planning to go job-hunting tomorrow.I told Liz.
I need a part time job that won't interfere with school.
isn't that going to be stressful? she asked.
Yeah,I answered. There is no alternative.
I really wish I can help out,she said.
How? I asked.
By bothering your parents?
Liz,you are a good friend. You have done enough for me.I don't want to bother you with any of my problems again.
I can take care of my self.
Where are you planning to check the jobs? she asked.
Restaurants, I answered
That's not a reputable place to work,she said.
Who cares about being reputable,I said.
As far as it pays my bill and puts food on the table.
I'm proud of you,babe.she said.
Thanks, I answered. Proud of you too.
My phone beeped and I checked out the text.
I discovered it was from Jared..
Why is he texting me,I thought.

Meet me by 3pm tomorrow in the library.
Jared.

I texted back.

sorry I will be busy tomorrow.
Let's meet the day after tomorrow.

Are you still angry with me?
I'm sorry for what I said to you.
I didn't know what came over me.

I read the text and smiled inwardly.

I'm still a little angry.
You really need to stop flirting with me.
I texted back.

Okay,he said.
Next tomorrow it is then.
I'm looking forward to seeing you.

Liz and I watched hunger games American movie after showering and eating dinner.

Jennifer Lawrence is really a good actress,I told her.

Yeah,very good,she answered.

Who do you prefer between the two male characters? she asked.

I prefer Peeta,I answered.
He looks good with Katniss.
Very sweet and innocent.

You like the innocent types,huh?
No wonder you hate Jared.
I can't wait to see you Fall in love with someone.
its going to be awesome.

Yeah, in never gonna happen land,I replied.

she laughed.

The following day,I went out in search of job after lectures.

I was able to get a job in one of the restaurants down our street.The wages they promised was not that attractive but I planned to manage it. At least its better than nothing.
Your shift starts by 5.00pm,the manager told me.
Nice,I answered.
At least I will have time for school,I thought.

The following day I met up with Jared for our project.
We only had one week more to defend it.

we have only few days to our defense, I said.
I really wish it won't end, he said smiling.
Something I couldn't decipher crossed his face.
I can't wait for it to end,I said.
Really? he asked.
You want to get rid of me that fast?

Maybe,I said.

He sighed and said, You really hate me that much?
I don't hate people, I answered.
I hate their character.
You treated me badly in the past and it still gets me angry.

He looked at me,a look of regret on his face.

I didn't interfere because it would have made my mom hate you more.
The truth is that I was afraid of my mom as a kid and I'm still afraid of her now,a little maybe.

How can a grown up like you fear your mom? I asked.
You won't understand,he said.

He brought out 2 fresh meatpies from his bag and offered one to me.
No,I said.

Take it,he insisted.
I took the meat pie and ate.

After eating he brought out two orange juices and gave me one.

I collected it and offered my thanks.
After eating,he came close to me and I stiffened.
What? I asked, sounding breathless.

He removed a drop of meatpie from my lips and I trembled when his thumb brushed over my lips.
He put the meatpie inside his mouth and licked his finger.
I gaped at him.

its all gone now,he said looking back at me.

Thanks,I said. My voice barely audible.
Finish up your drink, he told me.
Yeah,I said.

I checked the time and discovered it was few minutes to five.
I need to go,I told Jared.
So soon? he asked.
I am working part time and my shift starts by 5pm.

where do you work,he asked?
MacDonalds,down the street, I answered.
Okay,see you tomorrow, he said.

My shift ends by 9pm in the night.

I served food and drinks.
The Job was not very easy because of the influx of many customers but I did my best.
Go and serve the people over there,my boss said pointing at one direction.
I went down to the table and my eyes met with Jared's. His girlfriend was by his side.Her hands were on his laps and she was leaning on him.
Talk about being clingy,I thought

is he a regular customer here or did he come because I told him I work here?.

He continued staring at me and his girlfriend stared between the two of us.
I was pretty sure he recognized me as the girl she met coming out of Jared's apartment.

she touched his face and asked...
Baby,what are we going to order?

The girl is really territorial, I thought.
Doesn't joke with what belongs to her.

uhmm....I don't really know.
what do you guys have? he asked me.
I told him and he ordered 2 plates of fried rice and chicken and soft drinks.
I left to get their food.

when I came back with their order,I saw his girlfriend scowling at me.

what now? I thought.
The girl is really a b*tch.
Jared left to go to the restroom and the girl said to me.

You are really trying too hard,aren't you?
You act all Innocent but you go behind my back and try to seduce my boyfriend.
You are a virgin,right?
Or Maybe you think he will be the one to pop that cherry?
You are really mistaken.
Stay away from my boyfriend, she shouted.

PURPOSE PRECEDES MARRIAGE.
THIS ARTICLE IS LONG BUT IT WORTH READING TO THE END ESPECIALLY TO YOUTHS......
"In you I find more than what I seek for in a woman. I wish to have a sister like you close to me for the rest of my life. You are godly and Godfearing, beautiful and wonderful. I will only be a liar and a pretender if I look away from you. Will you please be my wife?" He finally landed. The garden was very peaceful and colourful that afternoon, as Michael and Oluchi took a walk round the flowers. Her heart melted when those words landed on her ears, and of course she could not say a word at that moment. When she finally spoke, "I will think and pray about it," was her reply.
.
She got home that day, knelt down and she prayed. "Lord, is he the one? Is this your will for my life? Lord please open my ears to hear you, give me your word as usual. Speak to me in the language I will understand, Lord." This she continued day and night. Her heart was drawing closer to him. Yes, he was handsome, committed and spiritual, but those qualities does not take the lead when it comes to knowing the will of God. One has to seek God's face in the place of prayer and in the study of His word, to know His mind.
.
"Lord, what is your mind?" She continued her request. The more she prayed, the more it appeared as if God is saying yes, but God has not yet spoken. One night she laid on her bed to catch some sleep, and then she had this dream of herself and the brother walking down to the altar. This was not from God, it was only a thought inspired dream. When she woke up, she gave no attention to the dream, she already knew that her heart desired him, and that dreams could come from one's desire, thought or imagination. This made her to pray the more, and then God gave His reply. As she was meditating one evening on the word of God, she slept off, but quietly, the Holy Spirit woke her up by dropping a scripture in her mind. When she opened and read the scripture, she was cold. "Not everyone who say to me 'Lord, Lord', we enter the kingdom of heaven, but only the one who does the will of my Father which is in heaven." Matthew 7:21.
.
She didn't need any other interpretation, she already understood what God was saying to her concerning him from that scripture. But as a wise sister, she met a matured Christian sister who was overseeing her life and explained everything to her. When this other sister prayed, she heard God speak to her about the brother in question having no vision. This was a confirmation from God that the brother was out of His will for her.
.
Hmm! so lack of vision could make someone not to be approved by God for marriage. This brother was spiritual and committed, yet God saw an empty future in him. Probably he has been so occupied with religious activities, but never care about what heaven is saying concerning his life.
.
Excuse bro! Are you like him? Many of our brothers in their early or late 30s, even 40s, are praying down fire for life partner, but they have no vision in life. Are you one of them? Please what is your purpose for living? Where are you heading to in life? You desire a sister like Oluchi, but do you even pray like her to get instructions from God for your life? What will be your position in that marriage if God should give you such a sister? Won't you quench her fire and passion for God and then turn her into a full house wife? Think about it you who is looking for a wife. Have you discovered the reason why you needed help in your life? Have you yet seen your areas of weakness where she can fit in? Why were you born a male? Have you discovered that fact? Do you yet understand the responsibility of the man in the home? Listen! You may be clustered with spiritual activities like brother Micheal, and committed in so many things in your church, but yet, God is seeing a man scattered inside of you. A man without clear direction in life.
.
And to you my dear sister, how do you go about this issue of choosing a life partner? Is it just his spirituality you are looking at? The way he leads worship and prays? The way he handles Sunday school, preaches or play instruments? Perhaps, his fat salary, expensive car and his outfit? Don't be tempted by looking at those things. Yes, they are nice and wonderful, but what is God saying concerning him? What future are you seeing in his life? What purpose of God is he fulfilling that you will have to be a help to him? Think about it, and don't think God is in support when you have not been able to settle these questions.
.
Are you already making a mistake? Why the rush when you can retrace your step and seek His face? A broken courtship, even at the point of marriage, is still better than a broken marriage.
