So Saturday came by fast, it is one in the afternoon and I am here in my room looking at my opened wardrobe, a few scattered shirts, trousers, shoes, and purses on my bed and floor trying to decide what I was going to wear for my today’s date with Chris.

It isn't hard to just pick an item of clothing for the day and just have in mind you look good without thinking if the other party is okay with what you are wearing or not.

With Leo, it is easy to do that even though there are times I would want to just impress him with my clothing which he doesn’t mind at all but just one date that I am not sure will end well with Chris and I am this worked up.

“What in the world is happening to me?” I said aloud and collapsed on my bed as I look at the ceiling.

“I wanted to give options but I am so nice” I heard the voice of my twin and raised my head to see her by the door that leads to her room and rest my head back on the bed.

    “You like this place?” he asked when we settled on a table to talk before going to grab what we would eat.I looked around and nod my head then looked at him and saw how excited he was.I really hope he doesn't see it as more than just a friendly date.‘If only you told him it was a friendly date’if only I said that to him.Sighs.“It is okay” I replied to him and brought out my phone from my purse to check the time.‘’4:15 pm’it says.He came some minutes before four to pick me up but I was still wearing some makeup so my twin went downstairs to keep him company till I came downstairs.Even when I had finished applying makeup to my face and was leaving my room to go meet him downstairs, I felt that rush of… nervousness as I wonder if he might like what I was wearing or not.I was then stuck in between calling my twin to cover up f

    After that day that got me so scared, Chris took me home like he said and gave me the whole two food packs and drinks he bought in the restaurant so, after about ten minutes of resisting, I had no choice but to take it.I and my twin ate it and I explained the dream I had some days ago to her and the similar event that took place in that restaurant and how terrified it made me.We concluded that we needed to tell mum and dad when they get back and we did tell them about it but it just made mum more worried and she almost overreacted when I explained everything to her.I could understand how hard it was for her those times I was missing and can't imagine how worried and displaced it made her. Every mother would definitely react to these when they hear of something that might take their children away from them againWhile dad on the other hand was all cool about it. I couldn’t read any emotions on his face as his face was blank and void of any emotion

    “Are you sure about this?” Chris asked with a worried look on his face.I nod my head in assurance to what I explained to him for the past five or ten minutes.He looked away from me and sighed in thought.I was really hoping he could at least help in these things I asked of him. I really hope he agrees to it.“Your parents, do they know about what you are asking me of?” he asked me and I shook my head ‘No’.“I told my mum and she said we should pray about it but I am just thinking of adding a third party in this at least to work fast on it”“Well since your mum came up with a solution, why don’t you listen to her and pray about it? I am not religious or so but I am aware that prayer is the master key right?” he asked and I nod my head.“Yeah, okay,” I said and looked away.“Dont feel bad that I didn’t comply with you, I just want

    So I and Chris agreed that we would go out soon but had not yet picked a date.We promised to communicate whatever the date will be with each other.I told my twin about all of it as she just told me to be careful and not take decisions that would affect not just me but everyone I care about.Finally, Leo texted me back and I was more than pleased with him when I was supposed to be vexed that he was just putting me by the corner.We will be meeting up soon to hang out after a long time of not talking properly.I was getting ready to leave when I heard the door to my twin's room open so I turned around to talk to her to see that she was heading for the door to go out."Elle, we ne-- wait, where are you going?" I asked when she paused to look at me."Somewhere that mum is aware of" she answered and was about to leave but I stopped her again.My eyes lit up with a bit of hope that she would tell me if I asked whether she was

    When we told mum bye, we set out together outside our home to meet up with our respective dates. "Do you think Leo would take it fine when he knows who you will be going on a date with?" Elle asked and I thought for a moment. "I doubt because the last time he saw I and Chris, he was angry though but he told me he didn't want to be a stumbling block for whoever that wants to date me" I explained to her. "He told me that, if it is someone he isn't comfortable with then he will try to be polite with that person just for me" "That boy really likes you. He wants your happiness" she told me and I smiled. "So, now that you know he is supportive of whoever you want to date, are you supportive of whoever he might want to date? Whether or not you are comfortable with the person?" She asked and that put me on a pause. Here I was feeling glad that he wants what is best for me and puts my happiness over his, even if it doesn't favor me. The

    “I am so sorry,” Leo said to me and I frowned, unable to understand what he was sorry for, and reached out to him to ask what he was talking about.But as I got closer to him, it seemed like he began to get further away from me.The frown on my face deepened as I wondered what was going on.“What is the matter, Leo? Why are you getting far from me?” I asked with sadness lacing my voice but he just smiled and shook his head.“Dont worry, he would take care of you while I am gone,” he told me and I felt the tears well up in my eyes, begging to escape them but I kept them all in.“What do you mean when you are gone? Leo, are you leaving me? You told me you would stay by me all the time” I sobbed and he gave me a sympathetic smile.“I have to leave but soon you will understand why I have to leave, okay? Be good to him and don’t think too much about me. I will try to communicate with you

    “So it was good, eh?” my twin asked as she ate the snacks Chris bought me on my way home yesterday. I explained how the day went to her and how much fun I had. She listened as I explained everything to her while she enjoyed the snacks with me. “Yea, it was. I felt so good and happy. I even want to go out with him again and have fun over and over again” I told her and she smile. “Leo has no bad feelings about it?” “Nope, not at all. He even knew it was going to Chris I would pick and confess his love for me” I told her and bow my head. “That must be hard for him. Loving someone that wouldn't be yours and you have to accept that so as to prevent further damages” she shook her head and I let out a sigh. “I just hope it all goes well like it is now,” I told her and she nods her head then finished her snacks before going back to her room and leaving me to clean the mess we both made. “Such a girl” I muttered and cleaned my room.

    “Look I am sorry about the way I talked to you, I didn’t mean to talk to you like that. I was having a bad day and took it on you which was bad of me” he told me and I just nod my head then went back to looking at the window.“You can go ahead and eat, I wouldn't complain,” he told me but I shook my head.“It's fine, I don’t want to irritate my date,” I said still looking out the window.“You don’t irritate me, Ella,” he told me and I flinched when he called me ‘Ella’.“Please don’t call me Ella. Daniella is good” I face him when I told him and he smiled then nod his head.I muttered a ‘Thank you’.“I hope I didn’t ruin your day?” I heard him say after a moment of quiet and I so wished we reached my home right now.“No” I answered and heard him let out a sigh.“I am sorry Ella,

    “Ba-”“Where is my daughter?” she cuts him off as she threw him an angry look but he just looked at her, unable to formulate any word to say to her.“Look bab-”“I SAID DO NOT BABE ME” she screamed at him and he was taken aback by her outburst.This was going to be the first time in so many years that he would be seeing her in such a state. She gets angry but not this angry and would never use this tone on him.Daniella is definitely to blame for this. He closed his eyes to keep the pent-up anger that seem to have built up in seconds then opened them and released a breath.“I asked where is my daughter,” she said again but more calmly now.“You need to relax, okay?”“Fine, I am relaxed. Where is she?” she asked growing impatient.“Trust me, girl, I am as desperate as you to know about our baby’s whereabouts,” he said try
