A Road to Nowhere ( episode 18)
Oscar checked his new apartment, there was the master bedroom and then the normal room just in case he has a visitor,
he has wanted something smaller but decided to go for this, just to have enough space, and breath in fine, the house is facing the city mall which was more reason why he took it, he can open his window and see lots of activities around, it was bigger than the previous, the city looks cool unlike where he came from, life looks okay around here, everyone went about their business, he knows with this he will be able to move on fast,
is being almost two years Melinda got married and he has double mind relocating at first, he was indecisive in the beginning but finally made up his mind, the more he stayed the more everything around him reminds him of his defeat, he still say hello to Melinda over the phone and always extends his greeting to her husband, she gave birth to a baby girl three months ago, before he leaves, he has gone to a baby shop and decided to get things For the baby, the shop attendant has first congratulated him, thinking he was the father the child he came to buy things for, at first he wanted to accept the compliments and claim the blessing but all he said was
" is for a friend, I'm not married yet" I want beautiful things for a baby girl, I can't pick by myself, don't even know how to shop for baby things... Since I'm yet to have mine, just pick different things and I will select,
"Yes sir, we will give you beautiful things and don't worry your own child is on the way,
Oscar smiled in reply to the cheerfully sales girl, he doesn't even have a woman yet how will his own be on the way, he was still trying to recover from his lost and he is getting use to being alone, the thinking was not much like before but he knows he was always reminded of everything he has lost pain and was mostly lonely, everyday after work, he make food which he hardly eat much and he recline to his television, watching comedies and meme, he also watch movies but try as much as possible to avoid a romantic movies which will only take him on a sad memory lane that he dreaded most
After getting the things from the shop, he has drove down to Melinda and the doctor's big house and gave them the gifts, she was very grateful and even allowed him to hold the cute baby for sometime, her husband who love his wife so well was also happy for the gifts, they have begged him to stay for dinner but he he said no with the excuse of having something to attend to, Doctor Philip and his Wife walked him down to his car and ask him to come around sometime, Melinda has said
"Oscar, life is a process, I know you will be fine, the woman for you is just by the corner I know destiny will make your path to cross with her, come around any time you feel bored, Phil likes soccer he will be glad to teach you some of the games..
" yea, Oscar please try and come around or call me I Will come and get you if you are free, will like to have a partner I can always play video games with, Melinda is not into that is sometime boring playing all by myself...
"Alright, i Will come around during the weekend...thanks.
Oscar has gone only once on a weekend and saw the way the couples play, Phil even pause from the game to change the baby's nappy, he watched how he did it while Melinda made food in the kitchen, he danced and joke with his wife, their love was strong, Oscar was trying to concentrate on the soccer game but he started wishing For a family of his own,
where he can assist his wife like Phil does, and make her laugh so hard, hold her like she was all that matters and make her want to fall in love all over again, have a child of his own who he can call his, he will like to dress up for, change nappy like Phil does for his daughter and crack funny jokes with, he wished for so many things as he watched Phil and Melinda bundle up in love,
After that day he became very serious on relocating and when he finally did he was happy, as he planned starting life all over again and be happy with himself, he knows he was not a failure, life just happened in the way it did, he has left all that saddened and reminds him of heart breaks, and how unlucky he was in finding real love, he wants a happy family like Doctor Philip and Melinda and he knows he will have it, no matter how Long it takes, he will get there,
He has cleaned up the whole house and decorated it with beautiful arts work he bought from the mall across the road, he wants his house to smell of life, he wants everything around him to be lively, he picked Sharp colors and use a whole weekend to paint both inside and out, after the whole work he was proud of himself, everything was indeed lively and lovely just as he wanted it, he went to the mall and got food stuff and juice, he stuck up his fridge, his kitchen was looking like he was a family man, a man with wife and children, he laugh out loud as he thought of it, for the first time he laugh all by himself without watching a comedy. He was already feeling good with himself as he look around his house,
In no time he was able to secure a good job far better off than his previous, life was beginning to really smell and look good,
He got few friends who wants to become close but he kept everyone at a distance, he also started having female admirers which seem normal, he sees the opposite sex starring at him sometimes, his female colleagues act nice around him,
some look at his ring finger to ascertain if he was single or married, but none has the courage to walk up to him and ask if he was married or not, he wasn't attracted to any of them,
one of them, called Sandra was persistent, she kept coming around, showing care, she will come and ask
"Oscar, I'm going out, do you care for anything..
" no, thanks I'm fine.
Or she will ask
"Hi Oscar, is time for lunch break, c'mon let's go for lunch...
" thanks, i had mine already,
"What did you take for lunch..
" I had snacks with soft drink..
"Aaah yummy, you didn't even invite me, that's not fair
"Uuuh, I'm sorry, will do that next time...
" okay, instead of lunch why don't we hook up this weekend, I can come over to your place, and we do lunch together or I bring over For you...that's if you don't mind...
"Uhmmm, is not a bad idea but I Will be busy during the weekend...maybe another time..
" you don't really like people visiting you at your place I guess, I have being wanting to ask...are you married, like all this fine married men that don't wear rings, on a serious note are you married Oscar...
Oscar tried to dodge the question, if he says he wasn't married she Will want to do anything to come over, and he doesn't want to lie and say he was married so he has to say
"Not yet, but very soon, hopefully...
" which means you have a woman already, anyway, hope you will invite me when the time comes, I still don't mind coming over, I guess you live very close to the mall, so I Will be going to the mall this coming Saturday and then stop by to say hello, there's no harm in your friend or better still colleague coming to check up on you...
"Alright Sandra, you can stop by and say hello..
" yeah, I'm happy now, expect me this weekend...
Oscar gave a sigh of relief as Sandra who was tall and beautiful, cat walk away from his office
Early morning on Saturday Oscar heard the door Bell and it was Sandra
"I know I'm way too early, I wanted to visit first before going to the mall, wow, your house is so lovely, Oscar you have a taste for good things, just like me, this is really lovely, you live here all alone, in this fine spacious house, mennnnhhh...I envy your taste if style... So beautiful
" thank you, what can I offer you Sandra..
"Breakfast, I can make for two of us if you don't mind...
" oookay, go right ahead, the kitchen is by your left, everything you need is in there, just make for yourself, i don't want to eat breakfast now, still too early for me..
Sandra kept shouting wow as she entered Oscar's kitchen, she was perplexed by it's surrounding, everything was clean and well kept,
Oscar got refreshed and came out looking cool in his Jean short and a Polo, Sandra couldn't take her eyes off as she moved closer to him with her toast bread, scrambled egg and pineapple juice which was in a tray, Oscar stood and went to his fridge, he took apple from the fridge and return back to his chair, he put on a comedy show while still trying to distance himself from Sandra who was acting like she wanted to enter his body,
they started watching the show and kept laughing, Oscar later stand up and went to the kitchen to make something to eat,
despite Sandra insisted on doing it, he told her to sit and watch the television show but she followed him to the kitchen,
it was already mid day, he Will make lunch instead,
As he got into the kitchen, Sandra messed up the whole kitchen when she was making breakfast for herself, Oscar has to Wash the plates and cups she used in eating and clean up the whole place while she stood and watch, gisting him about one of the comedy shows she once watched, Oscar was happy to have a company, he was almost getting use to being by himself, Oscar made a delicious lunch for him and Sandra, and she kept praising his cooking,
evening was coming and Sandra refused to go still feeling at home,
she moved very close to Oscar and placed her manicured soft hand on his lap, she romanced his legs Oscar gently removed her hand,
Sandra was tall and beautiful, she can pass for a model and with the whole sign she was giving Oscar, some men would have taking advantage of that and have sex with her, just as Sandra wanted but not Oscar, he was discipline and does not jump on every woman Who comes around him, as Ryan was once doing before he was dealt with,
Sandra bent over and kiss Oscar's neck and ear, he touched his chest and squeezed his nipples, Oscar shudder, his body was beginning to respond to the whole touch, he sat up and breathed hard, he has not being with a woman for almost two years, since Melinda left him, it was a good opportunity for him, he was human too and has hot blood flowing in his vein, he was tempted but he resisted, he tried not to fall,
instead he took Sandra's hand into his and faced her, he has to make her understand that he is not like every guy out there that may want to jump at this offer, he has to correct her in love so that she won't feel humiliated
"You are so beautiful Sandra, and you are every man's dream, we could go down together, have some dirty fun, make out in bed and nobody will question us because we are both adults, but I don't want to lead you along to a road that leads to nowhere, I respect you and I respect your body and I also respect myself and know that this... If we start this... it will lead us to nowhere and one of us may get hurt in the process, let's not just live like nothing matters, care free live, no, everything and everyone matters in life and I don't want to take anything or anyone for granted, hold yourself together if we are meant to be time will tell, we have to first of all understand ourselves and allow love to settle between us and not rush things because the opportunity calls, no Sandra, this isn't right, I'm too old with life experience to allow any woman to be hurt because of me, I know what it feels like to be hurt, if I want to have fun I Will go to a basket ball cot or go and play snooker, your body is too precious to be used for fun sweetheart, don't allow any man to play with it, you are too beautiful and smart to settle for less...we can't do this Sandra because is not okay...hope you understand....
" hmmm, yeah, I do, I was almost thinking you are gay, you are a good man Oscar, you are the first man that have ever said no to me, and you said it in a beautiful way, holding my hands and trying to talk some sense into me instead of being harsh, I'm sorry for... Trying to make you break your principles, you were just too hard for me to resist, looking at you alone is tempting, your woman will be so lucky to have you, she is a lucky woman, I wish I'm the one anyway...
Sandra laughed and Oscar joined in, and after sometime she stood and said she was going, it was night already, Oscar decided to go and drop her close to her side before driving back home, this was one of the hardest temptation he has to overcome.
They act cool in the office, since Sandra knows the kind of man Oscar is she warns others who seem interested off, they some time have lunch together and laugh over some funny things, they kept there friendship cordial.
Sandra later started dating somebody and she told Oscar about it and he was very happy for her, she introduce her man friend to Oscar and they all became friends,
Oscar drove down to the mall one day, after picking everything he came for, just after paying for his stuffs and walking back to his car, he almost bump into someone, a Lady, things fell off her hand and Oscar bent over and picked them up,
A young woman with her little boy, he quickly apologized and when he looked at her he was puzzled, the Lady who seemed to be in shock to see him too, was holding a little boy of about two years plus who looks so much like him,
and it was Sarah,
Sarah was the person Oscar ran into at the mall, she has a boy who was like his carbon copy when he was little.
They both stood in shock staring at each other.
Could it be what he was thinking, a lot of things was going through his mind as he kept on staring at Sarah and the two to three years cute little boy in her arm.

Still continues

A Road to Nowhere (episode 19)

Sarah spoke first after a long speechless stare from Oscar who couldn’t say anything.
“Hi…Oscar...what brought you to this city…what are you doing here…
“i…I live here now, relocated to this place, I live across the road, not too far from here…and you…what brought you here…
“I live here too…and I comes here most times to buy things…
They had another quiet stare before Oscar looked at the boy and spoke…
“Is this your son…
“Yeah, my son…
“uhmmm…uhmm he is cute…
“Thanks, I got to go now, nice seeing you again.
“ple…please wait…we need to talk Sarah…
“Talk about what…don’t have anything to say to you…
“if you don’t have anything to say to me, fine, how about we start with the child in your arm…at least there’s something to talk about…
Sarah’s heart started beating, she held her son tight, close to her chest, she knows Oscar must have seen the striking resemblance and she can’t deny the fact that he is the real father, but she will try not to allow him get close to her son, Oscar has once called and warned her off even threatening her that if she place the child in his front he will walk past without looking back, he said the pregnancy wasn’t his, and she has cried her eyes out that period and later put it all behind, and decided to work hard to give her son the best, she wanted to become everything in her child’s life, and it has being like that for her until this moment, coming face to face with Oscar again, the father of her son who denied him even before he was born. She has being living in this city quietly, and when her son arrived she has loved him like her life depends on it, even without being told she knows the boy has so much of his father’s resemblance, she has known from onset that she was pregnant for Oscar and not Ryan, when she found out she was pregnant she quickly knew who it belong to, and she has came to Oscar and told him about it, she didn’t bother talking to Ryan because the pregnancy wasn’t his, she has not spoken to Ryan ever since she came down to the new city, even before relocating, she has left him behind, it was time to move, it was very sad she had loved the wrong man all this while, who couldn’t love her the way she wanted, the city was cool, and within months she moved down she has quickly settled in with her son,
She has never thought she was going to meet any of the men from her past, most especially Oscar, her son’s father, who was in a relationship with Melinda, and has warned her to keep far from him. She knows she hurt him, and he has strike her harder with his words, by telling her never to bring any child to him in the future, and even if she ever lay him at his feet he will walk past without looking back. Those words cut through her like knife, it hurt everyday she remembers it, and looking at him now brings back whole lots of memory.
“Is…is.. My son right…?
“No, he is not…and you have no right to call him yours…he is my son Oscar, like I said earlier it was nice meeting you, I have to go now…
Oscar held her as she tried to walk past him
“I’m not done Sarah, we aren’t done, is quiet obvious, I don’t need a soothsayer to tell me that he is mine…we need to talk, don’t care if you want to or not…
“Then talk if you want to talk, but I don’t have anything to tell you…talk..
“here is not the perfect place, I can’t talk here, is either I come to your place, or we stay any place of your choice, better still you come to mine, I don’t bite…whichever, but you have to make a choice if you don’t want me to come looking for you with force…
“Fine, I will let you know when I’m ready…
“I said now, make a choice of what you want…
“Tomorrow is fine, there’s a hang out joint not to far from here, we can sit and talk there, you can’t come to my place and I can’t come to yours…so we will sit out and talk…
Oscar left her and she walked away and he stood staring at her as she walks away with her son still in her arm,
He held his mouth from screaming, his heart was beating fast, it just hit him again that he has a child, a son without even knowing, why would Sarah denied him the right to know that the child was his, why did she keep quiet all this while, if he hasn’t run into her he wouldn’t have known, “so I’m a father, I have a baby boy, oh mine, I’m a father…and I never knew…I have a son for real…oh I’m a father…
Oscar heart was filled with joy as he drove home and started looking forward to the next day, he will be able to hold his son in his own arm whether Sarah likes it or not.
He was so happy the following day and he waited until it was approaching mid day, he called Sarah, and her line was off, he was cursing under his breath as he walk round the house and kept trying her number, he took his car key and decided to drive to the mall if he will see her again, but he waited no sign of her, he went to the hang out joint she mentioned and no sign of her, he sat down at the place, hoping and praying silently that she will show up but she never did until the owner of the place told him it was night and they were closing for the day, Oscar checked the time and it was 11pm, he quietly walk back to his car, kicking off everything he sees on his way out of frustration, he drove home and couldn’t sleep through out the night, thinking about Sarah
The following morning he started trying her number again, it was ringing but she didn’t pick, he kept trying both while at work and when he got home, he was moody and couldn’t think straight again, he drove to the mall, hoping to see a sign of her again but nothing,
After one week Sarah finally called Oscar to come out to the hangout joint and Oscar drove down to see her and was so angry why she will ignored him all this while, Oscar was boiling as she saw Sarah she was not with the baby, she was alone.
“What is wrong with you? We agreed to meet and you…just disappeared why are you filled with disappointment, you are never truthful to yourself or to anyone, you came back again to frustrate my life…where is the boy…my son,
“he is not your son, and you have no right to call him that, when do you become a father to start claiming my child, stay away from us, we don’t need you or anyone in our life, we are doing so well without you being in our lives, I kept him away from you, you never wanted him, you told me if lay him in front of you, you will walk away and will never look back, you warned me off and ask me never to disturb you in the future, I should not do anything that will affect your relationship with Melinda, and so many hurtful things you said that I don’t want to remember…so you appeared now and want the same child, same child you rejected and…he is not your son Oscar...
“shhhh, isn’t that obvious, I don’t even need a DNA to prove that he is mine, is actually so obvious that he is mine, but is okay.. I don’t want to take him away from you, all I want is to be in his life, forget about what I said or did in the past, I never meant any of those things, I was just under preasure, we all got hurt at one point or the other, which I don’t want to remember now, I want to hold my boy, and play a father role in his life, if you refuse then I will come with force, we can’t be shouting the way we are doing now because we are not mad, bring him to me or I will search you out and come to your house…here is my address, if you disappear again, I will search for you with everything I have, and when I find you I will get my boy with force, you can get your lawyer then... I will come with mine, in that way we will be able to settle this, since you want the little boy to be expose to danger then is fine, you want it by force then I’m ready for you Sarah, don’t try to deny me access to my son again, come let’s talk about how we will co parent without involving a third party, we are having this conversation because of our son, so we really need to talk, here is my house address, and try to pick your calls too or you will be expecting me at your door step…don’t be surprise of what I will do…
Sarah angrily walked out after collecting his address, and Oscar walked back to his car, they were both angry as they all went home, the following day, Oscar was praying silently that Sarah will come, she has put off her phone again, Oscar keep checking outside to see if she was coming but nothing, after sometime he hard a knock and rushed to the door and it was Sarah, she came with her son, Oscar was so happy as he ushered them in, Oscar made food as he was expecting them but Sarah said she was not hungry, he gave the little boy the things he got for him, he carried him, just holding him in his arm makes him want to cry out with joy, the boy felt sleepy and Sarah nursed him to sleep, after the boy slept he asked Oscar where he can lay him and he showed her his room, after she laid him down comfortably she came out to the living room with Oscar who was following her up and down, she stood while she spoke to Oscar
“I’m not here because of your threats, I’m not even scared of those things you said yesterday, I just do not want to expose my child to violence and danger, you still do not have any right, you are just like a sperm donor…
“whaaat... do you call me…don’t you dare call me that again, are you crazy, aren’t you the one that denied me access to him, do you even let me know that the pregnancy was mine, if you are looking for apology for what I said, you won’t get it, I never meant any of those things I said on the phone to you, you caused it all, you hurt me real bad, finding you with another man in bed, how do you expect me to feel, I should give you an applause, or award you, I said things out of anger which I did not mean and you are here emphasizing on it, never you call me a sperm donor again, do you know the meaning, I have left the past where it belong, let’s just co parents in peace, live your life and let me live mine and don’t keep my boy away from me…you are so dam wicked, playing with my feelings the way you like, toiling with me, do you even know what love is, if you do then you will never want to hurt somebody that once loved you, which is not even anything again to me, all that matters now is my son,
“I was sorry for what I did, I beg and pleaded to be forgiven, I take no pride in it, I was loving the wrong man who doesn’t deserve it, and I said I was sorry and yet you said things that cut through me, to me and to my child who you are trying to claim now…to me you are still a sperm donor,…you are nothing to him…
I have warned you Sarah to stop daring me, stop calling me that…i..
“Sperm donor that’s what you are Oscar…
Oscar went with force to Sarah as he was already boiling in rage, he couldn’t hit her so he held her in anger, warning her, and not even knowing what to do, as he stare fully in the face of the woman he has loved so much and the mother of his son, Sarah saw that Oscar has change he was a different person when he is angry, she became scared, and Oscar pushed her and she landed on the chair, surprise at Oscar reaction, she was scared,
Oscar saw that Sarah was now afraid of him, he went to her and Sarah slapped off his hand from her, telling him not to touch her, they both started struggling and Oscar cupped her face into his hand and kissed her, Sarah try to hit him off but he was strong and pin her to the chair, and kissed her like his life depends on it, Sarah tried to relaxed back, she couldn’t escape from his strong grip.
Oscar’s emotion was running wide as he held Sarah in his arm, kissing her passionately, releasing all the whole anger and all the emotion he has held in, he tasted salt in his mouth and saw that Sarah was crying, he hated himself because he was rough handling her, he was not behaving like himself, he quickly straightened and apologise, as he drew her into his arm comforting her, and they stayed that way before he said,
“I don’t know if I will ever stop loving you, I don’t know if this feeling will ever go away, I’m sorry…I’m so sorry Sarah, for everything, I still love you but is fine if you don’t, is understandable, and I will try not to trespass, it will be hard but I will try, I wish you love me even little from the way I feel for you, especially now…
Sarah looked at him, and knew that Oscar has never stopped loving her, she was so please to be in his arm again, and to have a son for him, she kissed his neck and his mouth, and Oscar quickly responded, this time it was quiet, loving , uniting kind of kiss, as they drank deeply of each other.
And from that time their love life began again. There was no more augment or fighting, they became an item and everyday for Oscar was great, and with Sarah back to his life everything around him looks beautiful. He loved her more than he can imagine and Sarah fell deeply in love with him unlike before, she was grateful to God for giving her another chance to be in Oscar's life again.

A Road to Nowhere (episode 20 - last episode)

Clara checked the first customer’s hair and nodded to the girl beside her, she greeted another one seated and they exchange pleasantry, a hair stylist was working on another customer’s hair and the lady was complaining about something
“Please what is the problem…
The customer spoke first.
“I asked for a centre parting and she is giving me side part… this parting is not on the centre…I kept correcting her but she’s doing same mistake…
“is alright, calm down ma, I will do the hair for you instead, I will give you exactly what you want…I’m sorry for the mistake, she’s just an apprentice, and she is a fast learner too, she probably didn’t understand you well, I apologise again ma…
Clara collected the comb from the hair stylist and ask her to go and do something else, as she left, Clara did exactly what the customer wanted and the lady was satisfied.
Clara finished the hair in no time and the customer was happy, Clara was glad that she was able to handle different situation that arises in her salon, she owns the Clara’s beauty salon, which she opened a year ago, and because she was a good stylist that learnt from a capable hand she was able to open her own in no time, she has being getting different customers, and was glad that they always leave satisfied which is her joy,
Ever since after the incident with Ryan and Becca, she decided to get herself useful, she learnt that she can have more peace and rest of mind if she make her own money in a legal way, after Becca gave her the bundle of cash, which was enough to get things done, she has sat down and planned on what to do, so that she will not end up as a beggar in the street, since she has little experience on hair making she decided to go and learn more so that she can become professional at it and she eventually did and the result has being great as she has stylist learning and working for her now, her salon is gradually growing and she felt fulfilled with her self,
What she did to Becca, stabbing her behind was her biggest mistake which she still regret, and she still have a scar on her forehead that serves as a reminder, more reason she want to work hard and become her own boss, so that she won’t feel jealous with other people’s things but satisfied with what she got.
She hurt Ryan and also Becca and got dealt with, she wish someday they will find it in their heart to forgive her, she was just foolish and wanted more, she was jealous of Becca and wanted what she has and it didn’t end well with her, but now she is wise and she is trying to be better than she was before.
Ryan walked round the house, everything was in place, he checked the kitchen again, and it looks okay, he has made Becca’s favorite dish as usual and he knows she enjoys his cooking alot, he brought out the tiny box that contains the ring, and held his breath, he knew it was time, time to change status, time to be serious, time to start something beautiful with the woman he loves, Becca , he knows what he was getting into, Becca is not the kind of girl he can toil with, she can love with her whole heart, she can be an angel in a minute and can turn to be devil himself if she is taking for granted or crossed, he knows Becca was a very strong Lady and can change to a warrior, he knows better not to cross her, and Becca is very understanding too, and respectful now more she was before, he knows she was the one, he need a strong woman by his side and he prayed that Becca will agree to his request.
Ryan set the dining up, he decorated the table with different things, and walk back to the room, he walked round, looking for nothing in particular, he was just tense and was praying silently that his plan will become reality, he looked at the cabinet where he use to hide Becca’s things whenever Sarah comes around, and the second one was where he put Sarah’s things when Becca comes, the both cabinet was just open, staring back at him, he frowned, remembering the kind of life he use to live, a life that would have sent him to the grave, a life that would have bring poverty, a life of disgrace and shame, now he is a better man, he has regrets, a whole lot of regrets, which if he has known better he would have done things differently, but he has being giving another chance to be better, to make amend, he may not be able to have his friend, Oscar back, but he felt more at peace living a life Oscar would have been proud of if he was here, Sarah was his way of escape and she has loved him despite it all, he took her and everyone for granted, he knows she has moved on and was living her life, he wish she will find it in her heart someday to forgive him for everything he did, he was selfish, he was greedy by wanting three women at same time, and they almost send him to his early grave, he thank God he was still breathing, now is the time to make it right, and he was going to keep living a life of nobility, a life he will look back and be proud of.
There was a knock on the door and he rushed to the door and it was Becca,
Becca, has come to love the new Ryan, they have kicked up as friends after the incident, he calls to check up on her always as they begin their friendship, they hang out and talk about everything, after which he will go and drop her at her place before driving back to his place, she visit’s him now without informing him first before coming unlike before he will always warn her to tell him first, she feel more at peace with the new Ryan, and this time his love seem genuine, she has planned never to have anything to do with him before but she just found herself loving the changed man, some people deserve second chance, while some don’t, Clara may not be her friend again but she wish her well wherever she is, and hope she will find her own real happiness and be satisfied with what she has, she has learn to leave the past where it belong and move right ahead, whatever is meant to be will be, she was wiser now than before, starting over again with Ryan has opened her eyes to certain things in life, whatever the future holds for them she was ready to embrace it.
As she got inside, Ryan was just filled with smile, everywhere smells so fine, the dining was well set, and decorated with red roses, and she knew it wasn’t her birthday non Ryan’s, why so much decoration in the house, she opened the food and it was just so perfect, chicken sauce and pasta, with other delicious looking dishes around the table, she started smiling too, as she turn to ask Ryan what he was celebrating she was shock to see him on one knee, and a ring in his hand,
“please marry me Becca, you are the woman for me, you brought out the real man in me, i love you, and you complete me baby, all I ask on my knee is for you not to count my past sins against me but to look to the future for memorable moment which will count, I beg you to be my friend forever, to be…my beautiful wife and the mother of my kids when God decides to bless us with one or two, with you by my side I will have more reason to smile, I know…I know you can be crazy…
Becca laughed out loud, and Ryan laughed too before he continued..
“I will try to trade safe, I don’t want to bring out the craziness in you rather I will be glad to bring out the loving, kind and accommodating woman in you…please say yes…
Becca smiled and nodded before saying yes, and Ryan happily slide the ring into her finger, before standing up, they hugged and sealed it up with a kiss before returning to the dining table to feast and celebrate.
Sarah sat in the room as she put a button to Oscar’s shirt, the baby moved again and she held her stomach and smiled, she was 7 months gone, she can hear Oscar and their little prince playing in the sitting room, she was so blessed to have the two most important men in her life and very soon there will be another addition to the family, she can’t wait to welcome her second child with her husband and her friend, she and Oscar have gotten married after three months of meeting again, Oscar didn’t want to wait or delay any further and she wanted to be his forever, she doesn’t deserve him and yet he chose her over all the women out there, he forgave her and still count her worthy to be his wife, she was not worthy of Oscar in truth, Oscar was a good man, and she was so lucky to have him, and also to have a son for him and another on the way, God did not only gave her a good man he also gave her a friend and a supportive partner, who put her first before his own needs, her heart was filled with thanksgiving as she thought how blessed she was, Oscar was one in a million for her and she respect and cherish him, she have come to love him more than her own life, he makes living looks easy and beautiful, everyday and every moment with him was forever cherished. She can’t trade Oscar for anything or anyone, he was everything in one. How lucky and bless she will always be to have such a man by her side.
Oscar put a children show for his son and left him in the sitting room to check Sarah, who has being in the room for a while, he wondered what she was doing this time, she was always doing one thing or the other.
He needed to check up on her, he went in and saw her sewing button to his shirt, he complained of loosing a button yesterday but he never took it serious,
Sarah was just the woman he dreamt of spending his life with, she was great in setting a home and making her husband swell with pride, when she loves, she loves with her soul and whole being, and she has loved him withholding nothing, she cares for him as if he is still a child , if he complains of small headache she runs up and down bringing different things, and will not rest until the headache was gone, her stomach was shooting out, and in few month from now they will be welcoming another baby together this time, he love his wife and will always do, marrying her was his biggest dream that came true, now Sarah was his and nobody will ever take that away from him.
Oscar smile as he joined his wife, he took the needle and shirt from her, and kept it aside, he kissed her forehead and bent over and kissed her stomach before saying
“you have being up since doing one thing or the other, this is not important for now, I have other shirts to wear, you need to rest, I will make you something and join you in bed after, just relax your back, you need all the rest that you can get now, because time to push out the baby is in few months from now, so you have to be energize because I will be there, beside you, encouraging and holding your hands and together we will bring forth our baby, I love you and I will forever do.
“I love you more, till my last breath.
Oscar helped her to the bed, he massaged her leg and her shoulder before going to the kitchen to make something for her.
Sarah smiled and breathed deeply, she shot her eyes and muttered a silent thank you to invisible God who gave her a thousand reasons to smile through one man he sent to her even in her
unworthiness.
She knows the future will be so glorious with Oscar in it with her.
