ERRONEOUS WAYS TO LOVE - pt36
I finally kept away my fears and prepared
soup and stew for him. Emmanuel however
stayed with me in the kitchen, cracking silly
jokes as i cooked.
At exactly 6pm, after i was done cooking
and resting, i rose up to leave,
“I have to start going” I said to a surprised
Emmanuel, who quickly drew close and held
me.
“Why the rush? I thought you are spending
the night here? Tomorrow is still sunday” he
murmured pleadingly,
“I know but i just don’t want to spend the
night here” i replied with a frown. But
before he could insist, someone knocked on
his door.
“Who could it be?” he asked. I scoffed and
rolled my eyes,
“Who are you asking eeh?” i asked him. He
smiled, walked to the door and opened it.
I felt a funny sensation as soon as he got
to his door which made me walk up to him.
I got beside him and stared at the door
way, there stood Stella standing with her
baby in her arms.
I froze with surprise and shock, while the
girl stared at me coldly,
“I never knew you are still around” she said
to me coldly. I breathed deeply, forcing out
a smile.
“Oh yea, i’m still here” i replied, grabbed
Emmanuel by the waist and rested my
weight on him. She shifted her gaze to
Emmanuel who was yet to mutter any word.
“Too bad because i have no where to spend
the night and my little daughter is hungry”
She added seriously. Emmanuel instantly
looked at me while i shrugged. I knew the
unfortunate girl was out to make trouble,
but i wasn’t in the mood to oblige her,
moreover every decision was on
Emmanuel to make.
“Won’t you guys let me in?” she asked
curiously. I rolled my eyes, bit my lips and
returned to my chair. She shoved
Emmanuel aside, and entered the sitting
room, using her baby as a shield.
I stared at the young girl speechlessly,
clueless on how to follow her up, while
Emmanuel walked up to her with a drawn
face.
“I don’t know your plans, but you are not
spending the night in this apartment” he
said to her. But she simply scoffed and
smiled.
“May God protect you from yourself, you are
now deceiving this young girl the way you
deceived me. Anyway come and carry me
out if you can, i’m ready for you” she dared
him bravely. But unfortunately her eyes
betrayed her with tears.
“Stop being obnoxious and uncivil, it isn’t
going to get you anywhere” i advised her
with a frown.
“Stay out of this, it’s none of your
business” she fired back furiously,
“It’s my business dear, because i forced him
to invite you” i replied. She scoffed, dropped
her child on the floor and advanced
towards me.
“You want to make it your business right?
So shall it be” she threatened murderously,
while i shook with fright. It was very
obvious she was extremely angry and
dangerous. Judging by how furious she
was, i knew i was no match to her.
Emmanuel instantly came forward, grabbed
her from behind and dragged her towards
the door. She shoved and resisted but
Emmanuel’s grip was stronger. With a last
minute ferocious move, she levelled her two
legs against the wall as soon as Mike got
her to the door, using the wall as leverage
to send him backwards.
Emmanuel staggered backwards loosening
his grip a little, which gave the angry girl
an opportunity to bite his hands without
mercy.
He screamed with surprise as he felt her
bite, flunging her away from his body,
before descending on her with two slaps,
which brought out a loud scream from the
fighting girl. But instead of backing out,
she launched yet another attack, diving
forward with intention of jerking him
through the mid section. A very silly move
which earned her a knock out punch from
an angry Emmanuel.
She fell backwards, grabbing her jaw as
tears freely flowed down her eyes. Her little
baby began crying that moment, moving my
fragile heart and getting me more confused,
as i contemplated on going for the child or
not.
Emmanuel advanced towards her again to
render more finishing blows, but i sprang
up and held him.
“I will have none of this Emmanuel, what
has gotten into you?” i asked nervously,
“I’m merely defending myself from this
witch, don’t you see she could have easily
taken me out?” he answered angrily.
“You laid your hands on me Emmanuel?
You guys don’t know me yet, i will be back
shortly” The angry girl threatened and left
the house, leaving her baby behind.
A cold shiver instantly ran down my spine.
“What’s she up to?” i wondered fearfully. I
knew Emmanuel also asked himself the
same question.
