PART THREE: No other choice
No other choice
Recap:/ hi! I am boma hart and there are a few things you know or probably just forgot; the following week I returned to the office, after my assistant, called to inform me that a client was waiting, neither did I know that the client was no other person but my ex, "Scott Lakewood"/.
"Am I fibbing miss Boma Hart?" He nudged for a response, "no, on the contrary, your right sir, I have been booked throughout the remaining year and can't take any more weddings", I weaved out a lie because I will do anything, to get Scott out of my way. "No, no, no, you can't do this please!!" The lady strolled to me, "I am sorry, there's nothing I can do?" I retreated my words to her in a gloomy expression, " don't say that please, have always loved your work and I know how professional you are, please help us plan our wedding!!" She folds her hands, "I don't know, miss!!" I kept thinking if it will be a wise decision to plan the wedding of my ex, "please, help me huh!!" She kept on pleading, hence I had no choice but to accept, "okay! I will plan your wedding" I notified her, as my eyes fall to Scott who didn't alter a single word.
"Thank you so much, ma'am!!" The lady says to me, as she hugged Scott in an excited mood, "okay! Please have a seat?" I gestured sited as well.
(Inaudible conversation) a few hours later.
"Thank you once again miss Boma for accepting to plan my wedding!!" Yulan says to me ( Scott's fiance's name). "Your welcome, and not to worry everything will be taken care of in three months" I made it known to her as she turns to me with a warm smile. "Thank you!!" Once again she lets out ambling away with Scott by her side.
8:35 pm
I returned home, falling on the couch in an exhausted form, then a call came through, "hello!!" I said without taking note of who the caller might be, "Hi, my lovely wedding planner, hope you started doing your job?" A voice asserted through the phone instantly jerking my attention, "Scott, why the hell did you call me?" I ran an angry look on, "aww!! How did you know I was the one? Perhaps Is my number still stored on your phone as my sweetheart!" He makes fun of me giggling out, " aww!! Are you still wishing we were still together? Because it ain't gonna happen shortcakes?" I put off the call hurling it aside."Urgh!! Annoying!!" I frowned walking into my room,
(my phone vibrates) "a text message!!" I opened it up reading through the context of the letter, "ahhh!! Scott Lakewood" I screamed out the minute I finished reading it, somehow he still affects me, even though it's been a year since we broke up or perhaps, he broke up with me.
The following morning, I got dressed up and headed over to the office, "good morning ma'am?" As usual, Jude greets with a warm smile, "good morning!" I answered back, ambling inside my office, "good morning miss wedding planner!" Scott asserted out the moment he saw me amble in, "what the hell do you want, I do not have an appointment with you" I said strolling close to him, "yes, you didn't actually but I just wanted to check up on you?" His lips shape up with a devious smile.
"Huh!! Check up on me, why? I am not your fiancee, she should be the one you check up on and not me" I said geeking into his eyes.
PART FOUR: The callRecap/ hi! I am boma hart, and there are a few things you know or probably forgot; somehow I was emotionally blackmailed to plan Scott's wedding, even though I never wanted to, and on reaching home, he called just to taunt me the more and to add it all up, he paid a visit to me the following morning, at my office/."Jeez, chill out okay, It's only a harmless visit, is it a crime?" He raised a question, "yes! It is, I don't want to see you here anymore okay!!" I fixed my eyes to the door, "wait! Are you asking me to leave your office?" He surfed for answers, "yes Scott leave my office and the next time you come here, it should be with an appointment, okay?" I nudged my eyes to the door, "fine, I will be leaving now?" He( Scott) walks out of the office in an angry state, heaving Jude in " what is it, Jude!!" I let out the moment my eyes fall on him, " sorry ma'am, but a client is waiting for you at the lounge" he informs me,

Is father okay" In an anxious mood I asked, " yes, he is fine okay, don't worry! I only called just to inform you that I'll be coming to town today!" She says all of a sudden my head began to spin, " urgh!!" I let out a weak moan, "honey! Are you okay? Do you not want your sweet mother to stay with you" she sounded sweet through the phone, and anytime mom begin altering sweetly to us, just be prepared because you're in for a big treat, "holy shit! Am in trouble" I couldn't help but imagine how much pai

I returned my eyes to her (mom) hurling her to the side."Mom, what the fuck are you doing, how can you invite a common stranger to the house?" I took a side glance as he patiently waited for us. "What do you mean a stranger, didn't I tell you his name, and besides, you're getting old my dear, so it's best to have a date now, or do you wanna old without a man in your life?" She says,I had two options, it was either I go a

Hope I didn't wake up?". He says at the other end.Mins the fact he did wake me up, I figured acting all shy and happy, would end this conversation into a good morning start."No, you didn't, I was actually up from bed before your call came through". ( A white lie)"Oh that's good and please, I'll

While Scott sat down at the lounge, glaring puppy dog eyes to me as Jude swiftly closed the door from behind.(Two hours passed)I kept myself busy with the ongoing planning of Scott's wedding I thought he must have left, but the second I walked out of the office to check, I met him sleeping on a wooden chair.

I called"Yes" he turns to me"Do you still drink alcohol, be
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
