The day was going well, we had lots of fun. The boat ride, the water race, pictures time, lots to eat and drink.

As night approached, we went to get our costumes for the camp fire which my Dad ordered down for everyone.

We changed over and matched down to the camp fire ground where other families and couples gathered with their loves ones.

We sang and danced around the fire, until it was burning into ash.

Almost everyone got tired after the whole activities.

Dad suggested we set up our own family fire close to our lodge.

The fire was set by my Dad and his two boys, Ohio and Cole. It was an activity day and night for all of us.

Ohio was blending perfectly into everything and it seem he was always seen close to my Dad.

All of us sat around the fire, my Parents, Cole and Melinda and then me and Ohio.

My Dad was talking about his youthful life and some lovely memories that I still remember, he talks about my Mom, who he calls his heartbeat. He talks about my brother Joe who was in a fa

    He looked at me with straight face, but still did not say anything. He went into the bathroom and washed his hands.As he was coming out I attacked him with words angrily.“Why are you not talking to me? You went there to support her but locked me in here and do not care. You think I’m a devil not knowing that Melinda is the real devil with seven horns. Since Melinda has said it all is better to call it quit. The whole plan isn’t working out. If you are tired of me then is okay to leave. I have always been fine…i..iI can’t even continue as I try to control my tears and frustration. He came to sit beside me and gently held me in his arm, he stroke my hair gently as I sobbed in his arm.“I’m sorry Becca, it was all my fault. If I knew that your sister was going to be the one to raise the dust I would have being more prepared. I thought it was going to be your Dad and I did the best I can with him. I never knew you had such discussion with your sister earlier about how and where we met.

    I looked at the time, it was almost 9am in the morning. I saw the tray of breakfast beside the bed and Ohio stood staring down at me. He was all dressed in a jean and a colourful Tshirt. I couldn’t even look at his face when I remembered last night and he was trying to make me comfortable with his smile but I still feel cold inside.“Good morning beautiful. Your Dad called to check up earlier. They want to know how you are doing and I told them that you are still sleeping. We will have some more fun before driving back home. So eat some breakfast…get refreshed, dress up and let’s join your parents for some coconut and sun bath. I hope you are with your sun shade…if not then you will have to use mine. He did not mention about anything that happened last night. I hope he will never mention it because I will feel humiliated. I try to reply with a nod of head as I went to the bathroom to do every necessary. I also had my bath. I came out all dressed and had a small bite from the served

    “Are you always happy when you see others unhappy? Does making others angry, bitter, sad…does it make you happy Melinda? Your lifestyle and attitude affects everyone, me…Mom and also Dad. Cole especially. Why do you spend so much strength fighting when you can do better than that? We hardly agree on anything…. always at log head and getting older and older with it. I allowed you to always have your way because I wanted to be the bigger person but hey…there is a limit I can take. You really trolled me pitifully last night, the emotional pain was far more than the blow I gave you. But I’m sorry for the damage, which was why I came. I’m sorry for punching you on your eyes but it doesn’t mean I won’t do it again if you come hard at me next time. If not for Ohio both your eyes and your mouth would have being the size of my fist right now…Melinda burst off laughing, I waited until she was done. She turned to me and said.“Do you mean what you just said? I mean you could have done worst to

    We had that morning and afternoon to catch up from where we stopped last night as we gathered under a coconut tree in a beach open sky house relaxing, talking and laughing with free spirit.Cole was lively than before, Melinda sat beside him as they talked about their relationship journey, Dad also talked about him and Mom and it was all splendid.We later went inside to pack our bags. It was time to say good bye to the resort beach.All through that morning and afternoon I avoid looking over at Ohio but when we were alone in the room, he walked upto me and tries to touch but withdraw back his hand.He doesn’t really like me I guessed. He was more dedicated to his life and his woman and I’m glad all this is almost over. I will try and get over him.“Becca, about last night….I meant every word I sai…I quickly stopped him from speaking further. I was not in the mood to talk about how I messed up in front of him. I still felt cold anytime I remember that I try undressing him and almost

    and I can’t cope with his nonsense attitude anymore. He is pained because he has already spent so much on the wedding plans. I guess he is also tired of me. The only thing paining him is the money he has spent which is none of my business. I’m confidence that Ohio will be a better man than Sugar. I desperately want Ohio now than ever. I guess he is not yet back but I will keep waiting until he returns. Ohio will make my life better than it was. I will declare my true love for him and make him know how much I love him. I will tell him that I ended my relationship because I wanted to be with him alone. Hello Becca, please hurry because I’m waiting for you. I won’t be able to see you tomorrow because you will be at work, so I need to see you today. That Richie…I mean Sugar is a foolish guy. Ohio is now on board….I quietly ended the call because I sincerely don’t know what to say to Jojo. I looked over at Ohio, he was concentrating on his driving and had not said anything to me ever sin

    The following day I was at work, I did my usual assignment but it was filled with error.When I summited the file I was sent back to redo it.I knew what the problem is which is concentration, I wasn't concentrating. My eyes was always at the door to know when Ohio will walk in.Through out the night after JoJo left with his card I couldn't sleep.I thought of calling him within the night but waved it off.I don't know what came over me yesterday, I was very angry with him for my selfish reasons. And jealous because of his woman.There is a better way to part but not the way I went about it.I had a sleepless night because of him and today again, I just felt useless with myself and with everything.The business day was over and Ohio did not come.I was angry at everything even as I got home, I stare at my dinner angrily. No appetite or strength to lift the spoon to my mouth.I had a knock on my door and rush to check, it was an unknown face. A young man maybe in his early thirties, d

    He never responded to the kiss but as I kept on with it, he began to respond.I didn’t want it to be just another round of kiss this time. So I decided to help him do the needful that night by trying to take action of every part of his body that I need to touch just to arouse him. I went straight to his pyjamas trouser. He suddenly stopped me and pull back my hands. “Sto…stop it Becca.

    “whaaaat! Are you serious right now by asking me such question? We are not having this conversation Becca. What has come over you...? He barked at me angrily while getting up to his feet. But I wasn’t ready to let go, we must tackle this and get to the root of it. I think I have kept quiet enough and is time to really know what was going on.“Answer the question Ohio. Don’t try to dodge from it because I’m fully ready to find out the truth. I deserve to know and if there’s anything you are hiding then spill it out and stop all this childish game. Tell me and make me understand, is better said out than all this confusing attitude that you kept pulling. “Becca, you are seriously asking me if I’m impotent or have issue with my manhood? And you expect me to answer you straight up? I’m trying to understanding the angle all this is coming from but I can’t help but feel insulted.“I never meant it as an insult. Is a very straight and simple question Ohio. But if you feel insulted then that

    “Relax Becca, I will soon be leaving. I did not come for trouble…I came for peace. The cops do not have to know please. I wanted to inform you that I finally caught Silas.

He wanted me to trust him and he also showed me evidence of countries he has traveled to and his fleet of cars and houses that he owned in different countries.

Open this door or we will force it open and it will be worst for you….They knew that I was awake after I turned off all the light.They were commanding me to open the door or the worst will happen to me if they force it open.
