But state of coma? Richard just need to pray for a forgiving spirit because if he forgives her due to pressure without it coming from his heart it will later cause issues between them.

CHAPTER SIX (CONT'D)


*****


The knowledge, the thought, the consciousness and the imagination of her infidelity stuck like a glue to his mind, refusing to leave. Like a virus, they took control over his system causing him severe restlessness and emotional hurt. The more he thought about it, the more he felt torn apart. The image of it, the imagination of the kisses, the thrusts, the smoachings, the neckings, the crazy and sensual moves, the positions, the moans, the touches all sent shivers down his system. His neuro electric system sending out shocks. He couldn't even begin to comprehend the reality of that, but alas, it was real. Angela, his Angela, gave her body, his body willingly to another man. The mere thought of that makes him insane. The claim that the act was done unintentionally, in a drunken state doesn't sit well with him. Is she trying to say that whenever she's drunk, she sleeps with men? And to think she thinks he will believe that is laughable. Common, who believes that? Does she take him for a fool? A mugu? He knows this is or may not be her first, she has or probably has been doing it while decieving him with the impression that she loves him and is faithful to him. He felt played. But why did she reveal it to him? Why didn't she conceal it? Maybe she's truly sorry and remorseful for her act(s), if that's the case, forgiving her is plausible. Common, it takes courage, remorse, love and repentance to do what she did, but what if she didn't do it because of that? What if she confessed because the situation got messy or because she was threatened or blackmailed? Who knows. Angela is capable of shits. This is a game, and if there's one thing Angela is good at, is being a good gamer, a very good one. The more he thinks about this, the more confused, mad, sad and disgusted he gets. He can't believe Angela will stoop down to do what she did, well humans are capable of anything, untrusted set of creatures. He loves her, he seeks to forgive and move on with her, but all this sends him into an abyss of confusion and indecision. Should he forgive and make up with her or should he break up? Time will tell, it always does.


The situation at hand caused a strain, a massive strain in their relationship. Their relationship which reeked of love, affection, respect, honour was now a haven of distrust, hurt, anger, sadness, fear and uncertainty. Angela on her part has been pleading for his forgiveness at every chance she gets, using any medium she can. Their friends, the Oyedeles and surprisingly, his family, also got involved, thanks to Angela, the revealer. They urged him to make up with her, but it wasn't easy for him to, even though he desires to. Things were and are too complicated. He loves her, he still does, that's the reason he hasn't broken up with her yet, but even at that, forgiving her is a herculean task. He has to clear his mind, but for how long? As long as it takes.


Things aren't going well for Angela, who sank into a state of emotional instability and depression. She regrets ever stepping out of her house that very day. She regretted ever doing what she did even without the memory of it. She wonders if telling him wasn't a grave mistake as it seems, but keeping it to herself was hell, would she had been able to survive it? Richard now resents her, her presence disgust him. She has pleaded, pleaded for his forgiveness lots of times, any chance she gets and through any medium she can. She even involved family and friends, yet, he wasn't responding. He treats her casually whenever they meet or are in the midst of friends. Such treatment hurts her deeply. Why can't he forgive her? Why can't he for the sake of what they share forgive her? Why can't he give her what she desperately desires, his forgiveness? Why can't he put her off this misery? Guilt, anger, sadness, hurt and fear, fear of the unknown, fear of losing him, ate her up. Her love for him wasn't helping matters. She loves him so much, so so much, even beyond her very own comprehension, and this made things worse. It made the situation messy. All this plunged her into a state of despair, emotional instability and depression. Such state affected her health severely. She fell really sick. Her condition made family and friends worried.

"Richard, why are you heartless? Why have you chosen to be unforgiven? What happened to forgiveness been one of the cores of relationships? Fine, she cheated even though she did it unintentionally, but the bottom line is, she's remorseful and sorry, that's why she confessed to you. Remember, she would have decided to keep quiet and go on like nothing happened and you wouldn't have known, but no, she decided to let you know. Why would she do that? Simple, love, remorse, transparency and faithfulness. Why can't you forgive her? Your forgiveness, that's all she wants, give it to her", Ann said to Richard.

"Bro, I'm a man and I know how it feels in such situation. It hurts, but the thing is, she's so sorry for it. This girl loves you sooooo much. Please bro, forgive her", Francis said.

"Do you guys think I don't love her? Do you guys think I don't desire to forgive her? The thing is I do, I want to but it isn't easy", Richard said.

"It isn't easy or you choose not to make it easy. .........."

"It seems you don't know what's on ground, it seems you don't know what your sister did. Okay, let me tell you, she bleeped another guy. She bleeped another guy in her house, on her bed. Yea, that's what the cheat of your sister did", Richard's cut off Selina.

"You think it's easy to let go of that especially when you love the person involve? It's hurtful, betraying and disgusting. You're saying this because it's your sister, if it was the other way round, if I was the one that cheated, would you react the way you're reacting. Won't you and your family treat me terribly? Won't you and your family tell Angela to dumb my sorry cheating ass, won't you? Please right now, I can't even think straight, and this pressures aren't helping. Please, just let me, this victim be"

"Please, my sister is sorry. Forgive her. She's really in a terrible state. She's has fallen really sick. Please put her out of this misery. She loves you so much", Selina pleaded, her palms joined together.


Talking about illness, Angela's health detoriated every passing moment to the worry of friends and family including Richards, even Richard, but his so called confusion won't let him do what needs to be done to the annoyance of everyone, even to his parents and siblings.

"Richard, I never knew you were this heartless", that was Gloria.

Angela's ill health grew worse and reached it pinnacle causing her to go into a deep state of coma.

YoungBruzzy:
Damn!!! It’s so sad that Richard and Angela are going through this but I know from the onset that this relationship can’t just keep going smooth like that. This is a trial that will test their love for each other. Richard should try to forgive and forget tho it’s not easy but he should try to forgive.

Thanks my wonderful OP

Not easy bro not easy at all. But they say love is blind.

"Look young man, what I, we are about to do is unconventional. It's never been done, not in this family", Fredrich said, his eyes fixed on Richard sitted in the large living room of the mansion. With him are the Oyedeles. Angela sat by Richard's side, her hands in his in a firm lock. The atmosphere reeked of tension.

"We're about to over look the class issue with regards to you. That's a huge one for us, but we have to be sure if devoid of class, you're worthy to be welcomed into this fold. This will depend on two things, one, your ideals. Two, your relationship, personal, financial and career vision and prospects. My daughter can't be with a non entity", he said and paused.

"So to start with, what are your plans for my daughter?", he asked Richard who smiled cutely. Richard stared at Angela and said,
"To be an ideal partner and father to her and our kids". Emotions took over her.

"Awwwwwwwww. Isn't that sweet", Juliet teased pouting.

"Ooooookay. Now, what are the plans for your life. Your goals, visions and prospects", Fredrich asked raising a brow.

"Three things, just three things. One, to be successful in my career, financial, personal, spiritual, societal, social, romance and family lives. Two, to fulfill my purpose and three, to make heaven at last"

"Hmmmmmm, religious indeed. Talking about purpose, elaborate on that", Fredrich demanded.

"Purpose, my purpose, that's a personal thing. It's between me and God. I'll rather keep it to myself for now. Certain things are meant to be that way. Purpose is what a person was created for, to fulfill or do. I know mine, it has been been revealed to me, I'm walking towards it. You see, everyone is created with a specific purpose to be a solution to a particular problem or problems as the case may be, Genesis 1:26-28, Jeremiah 1:5. The problems in our world are equal to the number of humans, as a matter of fact, every human has a solution to a particular problem or problems confronting mankind. The reasons they're lots of problems in our world is because, majority of humans aren't fulfilling their purpose, they're doing nothing, only few are. I choose to be among the few, not the majority. That's true success. Fulfilling my success is true success because I'm doing what I was created for in the first place. What will my generation suffer because I choose not to fulfill my purpose? That's the question we should all ask ourselves, everyone of us. How do you know your purpose. Simple, one, your Passion, positive passion. Your Passion may be your purpose or it may be connected to it. Two, your skills and resources. Your skills are connected to your purpose. Three, consult the Creator", Richard said. Silent fell all over the room. That was wisdom in another dimension. How did he come about that?

"That's revealing. About your finances and career, what are your plans with regards to them?", Fredrich quizzed.

"Just three things"

"Which are?"

"One, to be the founder, owner and head of one of the world largest and wealthiest multi national conglomerate which will span various choiced industries although it will major in the tech industry. Two, to be one of the world's richest, powerful, prominent and influential men. Three, to be one of the world's prominent philanthropist with my humanitarian organisations being one of the largest if not the largest"

"That's massive, how do you intend achieving that?", Selina asked. Richard smiled. He knows where this is heading.

"I know what you're thinking. He wants to be part of the family so that he can use our resources to achieve his ambition. What a crook"

"That's bullshit. Where did such come from?", Micheal asked.

"You don't have to tell me. I know a lot about your kind. You need to know this, the Oyedeles aren't part of my plan and they won't be part of it. Even if you offer your help, I'm not going to accept it", Richard said and smiled. Damn, this is going to be obnoxious.

"That's uncalled for", Angela fired with a raised voice.

"Oh yes it is. I'm passing a message. I don't need your wealth and influence, I don't care about those. All I want from this family is your daughter's and sibling's love", he said.

"Now back to where we were. To achieve such massive goal, I've laid out plans for that which I'm gently following. One of such plans are ideas. I've conceived tons of ideas, money making ideas. Ideas, that when implemented will fetch me billions of dollars. I'm gradually implementing them. In the film industry terminology, they're at different stages of development", he said chuckling at the last statement.

"Anyways, one of such ideas is a software I'm currently building"

"Software?", Felicia asked.

"Yea. As a computer science student and programmer, I'm working on a software"

"What kind of software", Felicia asked.

"I'm working on a software which will bridge the gap between tertiary institutions. A software which will serve as a medium for one, socialization and hook up between students and staffs of tertiary institutions. Two, be a medium for the transfer and sharing of information, news, research and academic works of and between tertiary institutions. Three, provide an E-learning platform for students by their various institutions. It is an online community for students and staffs of tertiary institutions. The software will be connected to the servers of various tertiary institutions. This will enable access of the software to their database for profile information purposes. Registration as a member is in two form, student and staff. As a student, one has to provide the name of his or her institution and reg or matric number, with that done, the software will scan through the database of the inputed information to confirm if the intended member is a student and if yes, his or her student details will be displayed, with this done, he or she can proceed with the account creation. For staffs, the intended member will provide his or her name and the name of his or her tertiary institutions, with this done, the same process involve in the account creation for students will be carried out. As for the case of E-learning, there will be a platform for that, students will go to their various institution's E-learning center in the software, input their reg or matric number prompting the software to scan for certain informations concerning the student, informations like suspension, expulsion, school fees payment etc. If the student passes such screening, he or she will be given access to the platform where he or she will get access to online tutorials and classes. Same thing goes to the lecturers. The software itself will be a social network, information hub and E-learning platform. E-learning platform for learning, social network for socialisation and hook up and the information hub for the transfer and sharing of information, news, research and academic works. Once a user registers, he will be given list of students and staffs of his institution on the platform to follow. He or she can then expand his followership base by following more either by searching for them through their user names, reg or matric number or through their institutions. As for the information hub aspect, we are going to use a targeted content visibility system where contents i.e news, informations, research and academic works can only be seen by those whom the content creator wants to see. For example, if I make an information hub post, let say, a research work and I make it to be visible only to personnels of UniLag or Nigerian tertiary institutions, only those set of people will see and access such post of mine irrespective of whether they're on my followership list or not, except it's general or global where everyone gets to see and access it whether they're on my followership list or not. The details of users of the software in the software changes as their details changes in their various institution's database, for example, if a student becomes a graduate and such change is done in his or her institution's database, such change will be applied automatically on the student's profile details in the software by the software. Certain profile informations can be inputed and changed by the users while some can't, those one's that can't are automatically been done by the software in line with the user's details in his or her institution's database. As for monetisation, that has been mapped out and put in place. You know to create a software like that, I need the support and consent of tertiary institutions. I need their approval to access their servers thus their database. That's not a problem, lots of tertiary institutions across the country has given me their approval, consent and support starting with the University Of Lagos. The plan is to start from Nigeria, then extend to West Africa, then Africa and then the rest of the world. I might move from Nigeria to the World skipping the West Africa and Africa path. Now talking about selling the software, I know lots of corporations will be interested in it, I can't tell, circumstance will determine that. Note this, this low class boy possesses high class mindset and vision. You're welcome", he said and made a comic bow at his last statement. The Oyedeles were left speechless.

"And one more thing, I don't hardly talk about my ideas to avoid intellectual property theft. So to be safe guarded against that, I've copyrighted this intellectual property incase of you know someone decides to steal it, you know what that means", he said.

"Wow", Selina muttered.

"How come you never told me about this", that was Angela. Richard shrugged in response.

"But I told you I was working on a software and even showed it to you"

"Since when does showing equate to explaining. How do you expect me to understand what you were doing or what it's all about. I'm a mathematician, not a computer programmer, even if I was a computer programmer, showing me wouldn't have been enough, it would have required explanations", she replied.

"Okay okay, my bad. I'm sorry", he apologized.

"This software of yours, any name for it?", Felicia asked.

"The Bridge"

"The Bridge, why the Bridge", she asked.

"Because just as the bridge of love that links two worlds together", he said and winked at Angela who smiled in response, "The software links the tertiary institutions together in one big digital community. Funny thing, I thought of that name of recent"

"Phenomenal", Steven uttered, "Now I see what Angela saw in you"

"That's pleasant to hear son. I wish you well in your endeavours. So, your ideals, let's talk about them", Fredrich said as the discussion continued.

They were all thrilled, pleased and awed by Richard. Angela was super pleased and joyed. Now, her family knows the kind of man she's dating, a being of capacity, not a riff raff. At the end of the meeting, the opposers became supporters, the supporters became more supporters. The RichGela relationship was consented to. Things went back to normal for Richard and Angela, super normal.
