Must Read: I was betrayed (Love Story)

Episode 1

We sat beside each other as we watched a Home video. My heart pounding rapidly as i waited for him to make the first move, but he simply sat beside me like a log of timber, focusing all his attention to the movie, which really got on my nerves…. “What is wrong with this boy?” I wondered uneasily.

That fateful day truly was the third time I was spending my evening with him, yet he failed to notice my moves, instead he behaved like a priest, distancing himself from me as if i was an evil spirit. Benjamin was an attractive wealthy male, who caught my fancy right from the first day i packed into the new lodge (hostel). Unlike most guys, he kept to himself and behaved like a saint, winning my heart with his godly behavior.

But getting him to reciprocate my good gestures towards him was a very hard task. His intense behavior soon began irritating me, forcing me to make up my mind not to visit him again after that fateful Tuesday evening. Because i had my pride to protect, which really was more important to me than my fondness for him. He was in 300 level, while I was in my 2nd year in the University, my feelings for him were really strong and divine, but i couldn’t display my emotions the way i wanted, without appearing cheap and disgusting.

Finally by 8pm, the movie ended. I sighed and got up from his bed, ''good night” i said to him sadly, but surprisingly, he held my hand strongly and looked up at me with fire in his eyes, “please don’t go yet, there is something i wish to tell You” he pleaded. I gazed into his eyes and Smiled, “finally he is living up to expectation” i reasoned, “please sit down” he begged humbly.

 I rolled my eyes and sat beside him, “i know you do trust me a lot, that’s why I’m the only guy you always visit, but i can’t help it anymore, i have tried holding back myself but can’t any longer, because it’s killing me silently. I have been dreaming and praying to have someone like you.

Please will you grant my request and be my special friend??”, “i have been in love with you from the very first day i saw you” he pleaded nervously with shaking lips. I stared at him coldly even though i was very happy inside. “I don’t think it will be possible, let’s just be friends” i replied and stood up. He tried to draw my hand, but I snatched it from his grasp, “goodnight we will see tomorrow” i murmured, gave him one last look and left for my room. I rushed to my room, hugged my teddy bear happily, and heaved a sigh of relief. I was very much delighted. “At last, hmm” i murmured gladly, falling asleep and dreaming of good times.
