CHAPTER FOURTEEN:
mariachis ( a thoughtful gesture)
Recap/ hi, I am boma hart, there are a few things you know or maybe forgot, my mind seemed to play tricks on my sanity, Brandon decides to give a thoughtful gesture to me.
(Outside)
"What is going on?".
The second they stopped playing, I had to ask, Brandon, copied the same look on and strolled a few steps closer.
"How do you mean? And yes, I felt like doing something thoughtful for you".
Brandon's thoughtful gesture, pinned a weak smile on my face, "thank you". I said.
"You're welcome, miss boma, I'll see you tomorrow". ( He kissed my cheeks and left)
At the same spot, I watched him leave, mom walks outside and found my eyes busy.
"He's gone?" She snapped me back to my senses.
"Yes, I do know that" I formed a frown and left her glaring at me.
The next morning, I got dressed up and left for work, Jude passed me a cup of coffee and went to opposite sides.
"Good morning miss boma?".
A feminine voice clamored out the second my feet ambled into my office.
"Oh, miss Yulan" I smiled and fall my eyes on Scott seated quietly, he glared at me, while I walked over to them.
"What the problem, hope everything is okay". I added to my words.
"Yes, on the contrary, we came to talk with you about the wedding hall". ( Yulan says)
"What about it?" I inquired
" It's not actually to our taste, so, my husband wants you to find another hall for the wedding".
( She linked her eyes to Scott).
"Oh, okay, I have four other halls that we could all go and see, hopefully, your husband will find it to his taste". ( I said)
"Sure, no problem". She affirmed and allowed me to show my way out of the office.
The first hall on my list was declined by them, and by that, I meant Scott, whereas the second, and third wedding arena, somehow, I felt Scott was trying to tire me out on purpose.
"Please excuse me". Yulan walked out with her phone, and while her feet faded away, I linked my eyes to Scott.
"Seriously!! Are you that childish?". I melted his eyes back to me.
"What do you mean and please don't you dare call me a child, I hate that word". ( Eyes withdrew from me)
"Oh, you hate when someone calls you a child, yet you continue asking like one".
My words returned his attention once more, "are you mad?" In a harsh tone, he asked, oblivious to the fact that his attitude, has driven me to the wall.
"Mad? I believe you're the mad person here since you have made it your sole aim to get me exhausted, because of your excesses".
He falls his eyes back and caught Yulan talking outside on the phone, and while I vented out my anger, Scott rushed and shut my words in by kissing.
My eyes open up, I nudged him off and at the same time, Yulan walked in on us.
"Is everything okay?" She says.
"Yes, everything is a fine baby and I do love the hall!!! So please miss Boma get all the arrangements ready for the wedding".
( He moved close and hugged her, yet his eyes were linked on mine)
I had no idea what cooked inside his head and what made him kiss me, Scott's budding attitude and atonement of sins are quite suspicious.
"Please excuse me"
After setting up the whole arrangements once again, I left Scott with his wife to be and I do know that whatever happened, was and is never going to happen again.

I asked, drowning a frown on my face.Scott drops his whole weight on the couch and kept on the same look on his face."I came to talk about us". He adds up to his words to me."About us?. Are you really saying that!! Or maybe you're just mistaking.".My feet withdrew a few steps away, rather he yanked me close and pinned me to the wall."Let me go?'. I said"No, I won't let you go".

Are you mad, can't you recall what happened back here years ago, how you broke me into pieces and left without even looking back". I said."I know and I don't recall clearly, but the reason we came here, was to rectify the past mistakes we made" ( Scott's says donning a sad look)"Oh, a mistake we made? The only mistake I made was loving you, and don't make me curse the day we met"I had so much a

Can we talk?' he whispers to my hearing, while my parents pretend not to be concerned about ours."Okay," I said and left with him to the garden.(At the garden)We both took a step in and I turned to goof to hear his voice, rather he loomed his eyes and gasped at the place."What a beautiful garden" Brandon says, forgetting his initial words to me."Yes, it is!! But tell me what's it you wanna speak with me about?"( Reeled him back to his initial words)So he says, "erm!! I was hoping if you would be free, I'll like for you to accompany me to a wedding of my cousin brother! It's the day after tomorrow".(Brandon explained)&

I wonder what drama he has in store?".(Still on that same day)I tried leaving, him alone at the room but stoped noticing Scott's hands on my wrist."Don't leave me Boma". He says donning a sad look."Why?" I turned back and said as he managed to get up from the bed, weaving me closer."Because, I'm sorry for what happened and I love you, Boma Hart".Scotts shocked me with his statement, it must be a result of the alcohol?" I said and attempts once again to get away from him, rather, he pulls me back, leaving a kiss on my lips.My eyes opened up, as he kept on runni
One wordRecap/ hi, I'm Boma Hart, there are a few things you know or maybe just forget; out of the curtsy of my heart, I took Scott home, he stole a kiss from me, and to add up everything else, I accidentally bumped into his always angry mother, Mrs. Miriam, who gave the rest of the family notoriety of my presence at the Mansion. ( Witch).( Still at the Mansion)"She didn't just call me a slut or did she?" that my head talking, the same time Mr. Daniel moves his head aside and cuts me short with his response."What was that all about?" He says to his wife, donning a pissed glare.Mrs. Miriam took notice of the glare on his face and immediately rephrased her words, "what do you mean dear!! I was only trying to make you understand!!"She says but gets drawn back by his raised tone, "understand what?." Scott's dad alters waiting to hear her response.The silence She placed before he gave

The groom what's to speak with you". Jude informed and left me strolling over to his changing room.After thinking twice, I stepped into his room and found him staring at the guests gradually filling the vacant seat at the wedding area."Scott, you called for me, what's going on?". I said, he turns and sausage his words out, "I'm sorry!! Once aga
You can say, this was perfectly planned by God himself; years ago I was not only thrown away but killed all because a certain someone doesn't accept my relationship with her son.And now, she wants the same person, under a fake name and to get into a relationship with him.Once again, is this ironically fun?.While they both waited to hear my response, Luca walks in and to my surprise, affirmed to the proposal.Once again dad and Mrs Mathilda in a head count turned to hear my response, and trust me, now that Luca is on it to get married, who I'm I to say no?.I'll gladly get married to him and get my revenge for what happened years ago.."I also accept father?".Happy was the look on their faces, Mrs Mathilda rushed over and hugged me, her smell felt like it was chocking, no matter how much I'll love to rub the middle finger up in her face, it's best to calm d
Five years later?."Sophie?".Dad calls.I ran down trying to pack my hair up, that when I stumbled on a man sited next to him.The man had the most charming smile and come to think of it, he look kinda familiar.A woman walks in, I hosted my head up and the second our eyes met, I almost dropped down unconscious.Dad noticed and ran to me."Dear? Are you okay?".Telling on I wasn't sure, would be like I know something and was keeping it from him.She's Mrs. Mathilda and his Luca?".Memories of the past came flooding back, to a point I ended up falling into an unconscious state.A while longer than expected, I gasped out in a displeasing way."Are you okay?".A masculine voice lets out from behind.Veering to see who it was, dad walked in and seized back my attention over to him."Oh it's good, you
The following morning, I saw still seated at the entrance to the mansion, when a car drove past me.For a distance, I took notice of Luca inside, he walks out of the car and at the sight of Mrs. Matilda not being anywhere close to him.My feet took a fast pace."Luca?".He stopped following the sound of someone calling out his name.Luca puts up a question, " I'm sorry, who are you?".My feet revamped a step backward. I must have forgotten that he doesn't recall, who I am.Hence while trying to find my words, a hand pulled me back, inferring the same person I tried so hard not to come across with."Tell me!!! What are you doing here?".Her voice deemed the minute her eyes ran through Luca. Mrs. Matilda smiles and with an aggressive posture got my hands lucked with her." baby!! Why don't you go up to your room and I'll come to see you".&
FORGET ME NOT( Dramatic entry into the city hospital)I ran in and met everyone seated with a sad look, they hoisted up their head and found in their midst."Where is Luca?".I asked the reason behind my coming.They all pretended not to hear me and at the sound of the emergency room opening, a man wearing a lab coat walks in.Mrs. Mathilda walks in and asked."Doctor!! Is my son okay?".The doctor disapproved of her question and answered, "no, I'm sorry but Luca doesn't recall some part of his life."What part?", I joined into the conversation, only to get drawn back by the shocking news, he doesn't recall my marriage to him.It seems my memories were the only thing, Luca couldn't remember, urgh!! Can life be any wicked?The doctor seemed to be needed elsewhere, he left, and at the sound of his footsteps fading away,
The next morning.I went to work.On my way there I decided to stop at boma's grave.With everything going on, i haven't been able to speak with her.My car makes a quick stop, I rode outside and swifly made my way in.I walked past the other graves, and on reaching there, I met Juila there.What's she doing that boma's grave.I hid behind a tree, I peeked at her and watched her place a flower at the grave.Maybe she knows Boma? Or perhaps there a link between her and Boma.I need to break the ice no matter what?.TO BE CONTINUED
Julia left in a haste, she got into a taxi not even saying goodbye.Is it just me or is she acting strange?Mom came outside."Son?" She called.I turned around, "yes mom, what's going on?".I had no idea why mom was here, I just hope she isn't here to curse Juila.She never fails to not do that.Please tell me? Is that not Boma here because I've got this feeling that Julia and Boma are two of the same person?". She added.I'm guessing, I wasn't the only one that thinks so, although at first, I didn't have such a feeling, I think mom's kind of right.But I'll have to investigate first
She held her mouth in astonishment.I took a step backwards and without altering Left holding unto Julia.We walked outside the house and I left her hands alone. I rode close to my car and placed my head on it.Mom's slapped was still Itching and I couldn't help but scratch the affected place."Scott, are you okay?"Juila placed her hands on my shoulders, I turned, "yes, I am," I said.She smiles and withdrew from me.I saw the distance she maintained and smirked.What's going on with her.Is Juila feeling okay?. Why did she withdrew from me?.
She sat at the exact seat meant for Julia, mom was indirectly looking for trouble.Julia sat at the next available seat.I smiled with her and she did the same, giving me a warm smile.We all ate quietly.Julia walked to the exit and on her way out, mom yelled."Don't pretend with us Boma, I know it's you!".I turned and gazed at her.Julia turned and saw the look on her countenance."What are talking about ma'am," she says.Mom walked up to her with speed, she raised her hands and while aiming to do the only thing she knows how to do best, I step between and got hit instead of her.
Everyone all sat and ate quietly.It was quiet but not until mom walked out of her room.She rolled down and met us talking at the dining room table."What's going on here,"I turned seeing her standing behind me.She stood at the same spot, refusing to leave.Julia stepped up to bring her inShe takes her hands out but as usual, mom shoved them and walked at her own pace.Ironic.Mom has never once acted well with Boma, and now that her lookalike is here, I'm guessing the same drama is set to continue.My mom isn't going to change.She hasn't changed before and I don't think she's gonna change now
