Thanks

thanks for the encouragement once more.
This is the concluding part of d story..
....
Tega and I eventually became a couple, one that was envied by his friends and mine.
We were 1 month gone but I still hadn't told him we were moving out soon.
Tega called me to meet him at a supermarket around the street. Since my dad wasn't home,I obliged. I had never been to his house, because I was scared of being raped, my mother would always tell me " if you follow a man to his house alone,he will rape you and then you will get pregnant, and your daddy will kill you, remember he has three other daughters " I began to remember this advice on my way to the supermarket. On getting there, Tega persuaded me to go with him further down the street. I was scared, so I declined.
"wetin sef? ehn? no be my babe you be? why you com dey gyrate because I talk say make you follow me? " replied a furious Tega. He had a really cute frown(or So I thought ) and he had the habit of bursting out in pidgin when angered. I agreed to follow him after he apologized. The farther we walked, the louder my mum's voice began to sound in my head.
Eventually, we got to our destination ; a wedding dress shop.
He pointed at the Jewellery section and asked me to make my choice. I reluctantly Did,because I wasn't in the habit of taking gifts from guys. Since he was my very first boyfriend, I obliged. I was surprised at his gesture, I felt like a queen. On our way our of the shop,he pointed at a wedding dress and said "that's the next thing am gonna get you".
Few days later. I saw Tega at a recording studio, he said he was working on producing a single. He had a darn good voice, but I had a problem with his song lyrics, they were all about swag and money. I teased him about this. We laughed over it. I felt really comfortable around him, he had a lot of light in him, he was a really nice guy. I changed my plan to use him as a time killer, I fell in love with him..But I noticed he was always in a hurry to do things.
It was two weeks before were to move. I called Tega ,but unlike him,there was no response. After 2 days, I decided to pay him a visit.
I still shiver when I remember what I was told that day . Tega is dead! he died because he had leukemia.... his mourning mother replied.
I couldn't believe it,my love was gone just like that. His mother brought a note he left for me .it read:
" Mrs English teacher, fear -fear smalli, I love u sha. Thank you for putting light in my life, you're the seewtest thing ,since my mother's akara. Wish we didn't have to end this way"

we eventually moved out ,but I learnt something from my experience with Tega.
" Never be with someone just to use and dump them, always show love to those who love you. You Never can tell when they will go".
