Chapter SixThe next morning came too early. Both the lovers were intertwined in an embrace. "Ezu." Ken whispered into Ezula's ear." Hmm?" Ezula opened his eyes slowly, still half asleep. "What is it, my love?" He mumbled." I can't believe I really did that. I actually proposed."Ezula's eyes widened as he realized what Kenneth meant. " You did." He said, his voice filled with wonder. " You proposed to me." He smiled, pulling Kenneth closer. " And I said yes."" Wonderful. So you're my fiance now not my boyfriend."" Yes. And you are my fiance too, not my boyfriend." Ezula's heart was beating fast. "We're going to get married." He could barely believe it." We're about to get our life together baby. We're about to be so happy my love."" Oh, we will be." Ezula felt tears welling up in his eyes. "I've never been happier than I am right now, with you in my arms." He looked into Kenneth's eyes, a tear escaping and rolling down his cheek." Ezu it's like I'm dreaming you know. Like thi
Chapter SevenClive couldn't stop smiling. He softly whispered to his cousin. " I am so happy for you dear cousin. You deserve this happiness. Especially after that marriage you had... Wait what about that marriage you have?" Kenneth shrugged. " Well that's been solved. Naomi and I are truly over. She and I ended things in terms. Signed the divorce papers. And yeah. ""Wow." Clive looked shocked. " I honestly didn't think you guys would divorce. I mean I thought it would just be like one of those celebrity relationships where you guys would stay married but miserable." He shook his head. " So glad you guys ended things amicably.""And I truly am happy that you and Ezu got together. It was kinda annoying seeing two people that loved each other not actually do anything.""Yeah, it was quite frustrating." Kenneth sighed. "But it all worked out in the end." He shrugged. "And speaking of Ezula. I should probably check on him. He needs his beauty sleep, he's gonna be grumpy if he doesn't g
Chapter EightIn a mansion in Avuma village there was a young man , Mivuma was thumping and stumping his feet as he was upset about what he had to do."I can't believe I have to do this." Mivuma muttered to himself. "How did I get myself into this mess?" He paced back and forth in his bedroom, trying to calm himself down. But the more he thought about it, the more frustrated he became.He sat down on his bed to calm himself down."Okay Mivu you are a mature adult that is going to deal with this thing to the best of your abilities." He understood if he didn't take this offer that was handed to him then he'd actually go to jail. For causing someone's blindness.And jail wasn't a place for someone like him. He had to do this. To get it over with and done with." Mivume?" His aunt got into the room. She checked her watch. " Why aren't you ready yet?"" You know that this is a question of your freedom. You have to do everything that lawyer you should. If he tells you to wash dishes or some
Chapter NineMine was listening to the news on the radio when he heard his mother screaming. He knew exactly what and who she was screaming at. She probably saw that Mivuma was there.Before his mother caused some drama by shouting and insulting Mivuma Mine had to go fix the situation immediately."Mother, please!" He rushed to the front of the house where he could hear her shouting. She was standing in the doorway, Mivuma just inside, his head bowed, his expression one of distress. "Mother, stop."He could not see what she was probably doing but she knew it wouldn't be great. " Mom leave our guest alone please. He still tired from his journey." " Our guest?!" His mother shouted. " The one that hurt you. The one that caused you to be blind is a guest to you?!""You don't understand!" Mine struggled to keep his voice calm. "I don't blame Mivuma for what happened to me. I know it was an accident. He never meant to harm me. Please, can't you give him a chance?""No since you've decided
Chapter Ten Kenneth was ready to step into the next level now. He had asked Ezula to marry him. Now there was only one thing left. To actually get married. They couldn't really get married through the law just yet since his and Naomi's divorce was yet to be finalized. " What's worrying you?" Kenneth's other half court feel him worrying even without being asked. This made Kenneth feel ever so happy. He couldn't understand how the world could hide this very person from him all this while. That he'd been searching for someone to be his own for so long for nothing. " What's wrong Kenneth?" Ezula asked Kenneth again now troubled by the fact Kenneth was not answering him. " It's nothing baby." Kenneth connected both his and Ezula's hands together. " I'm just thinking about the beautiful future you and I are going to have." " And what else, you know I know by now that you can't just be quiet for nothing." Ezula had a knowing smile on his face that told Kenneth to spill eve
Chapter Eleven Ezula was laughing at his friend's antics. Juma had always been a jokester since they were both younger. He even now was still joking about everything and anything at all. He was just a jolly guy. Always happy all the time. " Stop!" Ezula couldn't laugh anymore. He felt like he'd burst if he tried to. "Okay, okay." Juma laughed too, realizing he might have gone too far. "I'll stop. I promise." He put his hands up in surrender. "But I just can't help myself sometimes." He gave Ezula a sheepish look. "You know how I am." " Oh my God". Ezula smiled holding onto his stomach. " You've made me laugh so much." Ezula looked at Juma really looked at him. " Dude there's something different about you. I don't want but it's very present. What's up? " Juma hesitated. He hadn't meant to be so obvious. He'd tried to keep it to himself. But it was hard to hide. "I don't want to ruin your mood." He said slowly. "But I think I'm in love." He felt his face flush. "I'm afra
Chapter Twelve Clive was shocked when he saw David in the house when he opened the door. There he was, his husband was sitting on the living room sofa. Watching television. His eyes looked at Clive. His face had a smile on it. He ran to where Clive was standing. He hugged Clive. " I missed you!" He kissed Clive's chin since he missed Clive's lips. Because Clive had moved them from David's reach. David still had a big smile on his face. Seemingly didn't notice that Clive was not interested in anything at the moment. " You just left. I don't even understand why you left. You up and left me as if I was nothing. You didn't even tell me that you were coming here." " So?" Clive had his arms crossed around his chest . " So what? I left because I needed some space. Is that so wrong?""No, it's not wrong." David shook his head. "I know I can be a lot to handle sometimes." He looked down at the floor. "I just... I love you so much. And I don't want to lose you." He looked b
Chapter ThirteenMivume has been working in the farm for two months. He has gotten the hang of things. He and Mine have gotten close. He has come to understand Mine a bit more and he thought Mine understood him a bit more too. They had their own unspoken code together. They were comfortable with each other. Mivuma was done working in the farm for the day. He was sitting on the stoop of the house now. He was a bit sleepy, he had his head on the door frame. His eyes were closed. He was about to drift off when he felt cold water splash on his face. He jumped up gasping. He saw Mine's mother with a bucket. She looked at him with hatred. " You think this is a hotel or something? Get the hell up and start working!" Mivuma was so confused. " What did I do wrong? I was just at the farm. I have worked!" The mother scoffed at him. " Don't talk back to me, you ungrateful boy!" She snapped at him. " You're supposed to work even after the sun goes down. You get your food and a place to st
Chapter Sixteen It was Easter Sunday. Everyone was merry and gay in Kenneth's house. Everything had worked for good and things were happening just as Kenneth wanted them. He wanted to give Ezula the world and he was starting little by little. "The meat is getting grilled here!" Clive shouted excited as he walked to David who was busy with the meat. "I didn't know you were this crazy." Andrew laughed at his driver as he took another swing of the beer. He and June had been invited by Clive to come join them for the holiday. And they gladly agreed. They flew to the quiet village to honour Clive's invitation. Andrew was more than happy to see more of Clive's family. It was something he had yearned to see for a while. That and the village Clive had been fond of so much. He could see why. The place was beautiful. With beautiful people. It was very intriguing place just like the one that came out of it. It explained a lot about Clive's personality. "Clive". David shivered as Cliv
Chapter Fifteen" Baby?" David whispered to Clive's ear but Clive didn't make any motion. David shook his gently. " Clive wake up please. Honey please I know you can hear me. I mean it's six AM you're awake at this time so don't pretend with me please. Wake you Clive." Clive still didn't move. His eyes were still closed. His back facing David. David frowned. " So you really won't wake up huh?" David got up from bed he walked to the other side of the bed where Clive's face was facing. He knelt with his knees on the floor and leaned towards Clive to give him a kiss on his forehead. He couldn't kiss him though because just when his lips were about to reach Clive's forehead Clive decided to change sleeping positions. Instead of his side now he was sleeping on his back. David blinked, his mouth in a twist as he knew that Clive was very much awake but just toying with him. Any other day David would have had the time for Clive's games. But he truly didn't have the time
Chapter Fourteen" Baby calm down now." Kenneth kept on pleading Ezula who wasn't giving him a listening ear. " Okay I admit that I actually went overboard this time but it was necessary my love. It truly was." Kenneth had again tried to make Ezula's family understand how much he loved Ezula but yet again after a while of trying, two months in total he had only gotten insults from Ezula's aunt and uncle. They threw him out every time he tried to talk to them. It had gotten to the point that he had even tried to call Naomi for help but Naomi wanted to do nothing with him for a while so it was obvious she would pick up his phone when he called. Ezula had told him to stop a long time ago. But he refused. He really wanted to prove it to Ezula's family how much he loved him. Even his own parents had agreed to their love. Now only Ezula's own family was left. Kenneth was so desperate for Ezula's family to see how much he loved Ezula. He wanted them to approve of their relationshi
