Kelvin urged me to have a meal with him, i hesitated for awhile but i later agreed. We had a meal of fried rice and plantain with assorted meat. Kelvin was naughty throughout the meal. He kept on putting alot of meat into my plate claiming that it been long he had seen me eat and i should eat all the meal i had missed with him. I would put the meat back into his plate and he would return it, this was how we behaved like a child till we ended the meal.
After the meal, we went back to Kelvinās room with our drinks. Kelvin requested me to tell him all that had happened to me over the years and i did but i skipped every part that included Jordan. I could not tell him about Jordan without including the part where he betrayed me, so i kept everything about him from kelvin. I was still telling kelvin about my past when my phone started to ring. Before i could reach for the phone, it stopped to ring. I unlocked the phone and saw more than twenty missed calls from Jordan. I saw new messages from him as well. Not until i read the messages did i remember that we were suppose to be on a date that evening. I murmured āOMGā and dialed his number. The line went through but he did not accept my call. I became worried, i sent a message but did not get a reply. I became worried, hoping Jordan was not mad at me. I was lost on what to do as stared at the screen of my phone.
āAny problem?ā kelvinās question brought me back to reality. I sighed and said āI was suppose to be on a dateā. āwith me?ā kelvin asked with a smile. I hissed playfully and told him no. āAre you in a relationship?ā kelvin asked. I thought for a second and said āNoā. Kelvin hummed and said āI want you to meet my mom, she is in the next buildingā. I agreed and we left.
We got to a bigger apartment behind kelvinās and kelvin ushered me in. We met his mom in the dinning room, having her desert. She replied casually to my greetings at first before kelvin whispered something into her ears. She then stood from where she was sitted and hugged me warmly. She held me close to herself and said āYou are welcome my wife. Am sorry about your lost, am sure you are stronger now. Please feel at home and see me as your motherā. I blushed at the mention of wife and looked at kelvin, he winked at me playfully and looked away.
Kelvinās mom made me join her on the table and she continued to ask me questions, i felt relax with her during the chat.
The ringing of my phone interupted my conversation with kelvinās mom. The caller I.D was mi momās. She asked why i was late and informed me that Jordan came looking for me. At the mention of Jordan, i realised i was yet to get to him. I told kelvin and his mom that i would love to take my leave and they both saw me off to the car. Kelvin wanted to drive me home while a driver would drive my car but i objected with the excuse that i would be going to see a friend before heading home. I drove out of the compound with both mother and son waving at me.

I tried Jordanās line continuously until i got to his house with luck, the line went through but he did not answer my call. I rushed into his house immediately i parked. I met his mom in the livingroom,she turned to face me immediately she noticed me and said āMy dear, what are you doing here? Jordan said you have a dateā I greeted her and told her i could not meet up with the date and Jordan had not been picking his call. Jordanās mom called Jordan with her line but he did not answer his call as well. I sat with his mom, waiting for his arrival with worries.
Time checked 8:00pm, Jordanās dad arrived from work. He was as well surprised to see me,he asked why i was looking worried and Jordanās mom told him all that happened. Jordanās dad laughed and told us not to worry about a grown up man. He told me to go home and wait for his call and i left for home reluctantly.
Throughout the ride home, i tried Jordanās line without luck.
Mi mom welcomed me with question immediately i arrived home, and i took my time to narrate all that happened to my foster parent. They were happy about my reunion with kelvin and mi dad saw kelvinās position as a plus to our family. I told Mi mom i was yet to reach Jordan and she consoled me with the probability of him been bussy. I could not have dinner that night, i went to bed with worries about Jordanās where about. I also called Khole and narrated the whole event of the day to her before i slept, she was also happy about kelvin.

The ringing of my phone work me up the following morning, i slowly opened my eyes and got my phone from my table. Before i could unlock my phone, it started to ring again, the caller I.D was āMaamiā( Jordanās mom). I quickly accepted the call and said hello. āNancy you need to come over immediately, its Jordanā. She said hurriedly and ended the call. I frozeā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦
Ā¤Ā¤Ā¤Ā¤Ā¤Ā¤Ā¤Ā¤Ā¤Ā¤Ā¤Ā¤Ā¤Ā¤Ā¤Ā¤Ā¤Ā¤Ā¤Ā¤Ā¤Ā¤
I froze immediately, i could not make out on what to do. I quickly tried Jordanās mom line again, it went through but she did not answer my call. I could not even take my bath, i rushed out of my room bare footed. I was in tears already, i could not bare to lose someone i love again. I rushed to my foster parentās room and quickly told them that Jordan was in danger. Not until Mi mom told me to change my cloth, did i realise that i was still in my night gown. I quickly rushed to my room and wore the first top and pant i laid my hands on. I could hear my foster parent calling out on me to take things easy as i ran out of the house. Not until i made to open my car door did i realise that i was not with the key. I ran into the house and ran back with the keys before i zoomed off.
I could not wait for the gate man to open the gate when i got to Jordanās house. I quickly parked outside and rushed into the house, ignoring the security man greetings.
I was so astonished when i met Jordanās dad reading from the daily newspaper in the livingroom. I greeted him briefly and asked him of Jordanās whereabout. He smiled and told me he was fine before asking me to take i sit. I impatiently took a sit opposit him. Jordanās dad cleared his throat and said āNancy, he is fine, believe meā i smiled nervously and noded. He then continue and said
āI dont want you to see this discussion as a way of poke nosing into your private life please. I believe you know that my son is madly inlove with you? He love you to the extent that he can hurt himself if you fail him. Take for instance, just because you could not make the dinner arranged yesterday, for reason best known to you. Jordan went ahead and got himself drunk, he got involved in an accident on his way home. Thank God it was just a minor accident but what if it was a serious one? Who will be blamed? Will you be blamed for disappointing him and making him feel dejected? Or will he be blamed for loving you and acting foolishly out of the fear of been rejected? Please whatever he might have done to hurt you do forgive him, and do not allow another incidence like this occur again, please my dear. Am not in the position to advice you relationship wise but please accept my advise. He is my only child and i want the best for the both of you. I hope you understand?ā
I breathe a sigh of relief and told Jordanās dad that i understood him perfectly well. He smiled and told me to give him a hug, i did and he patted me lightly on the back. I felt sorry for making a father worried over his only child. I asked for the address of the hospital Jordan was been admitted and he told me. I hurried out and head to the hospital with the determination to be a better girlfriend to Jordan. āI never knew he love me this muchā I thought with a smile.

I hurried out of my car immediately i got to the hospital. I went to the reception and asked for the ward an accident victim was brought into. The nurse on duty helped me in getting to Jordanās ward. I met Jordanās mom sitting in a chair beside him, immediately I greeted her, she raised her head from the bed and responded. āHow is he?ā i asked as i moved toward the bed. āHe is fine, he only obtained a slight injury on his legā she replied. I breathe a sigh of relief and touched Jordan on the forehead to feel his temperature. I thought of how bad i would feel if anything serious had happened to him and i could not help but shake my head. āSorry for alarming you my dear, i was also informed this morning, and thinking that it was serious, i called you while rushing here. As if his father knew that it was nothing serious, he felt relaxed even after telling him. I wonder why men have the heart of stoneā Jordanās mom said and we both laughed. I told her it was no problem and she seek to be excused, claiming there were other things she would love to request from the doctor. I agreed to stay with Jordan and she left. I replaced Jordanās mom on the chair and stared at Jordan. He was sleeping peacefully in bed. I saw the part he obtained the injury and i lightly touched it. āOuch! That hurtsā Jordan said and i was startled. āwere you even sleeping at all?ā I said composing myself. āof course but i canāt just resist that angelic touchā i hit Jordan playfully and he shouted, pretending it hurts. āyou shouldānt be hitting a sick man, you know?ā Jordan said. āOh yea?ā i replied as i continue to hit him. This went on for a while.
āOh so you have been pretending to be asleepā Jordanās mom interupted us from the door. Myself and Jordan laughed and welcomed her. I stood up from the chair for her and she sat down beaming with smile. āAm happy to see you two together happilyā She said and we all laughed. Jordanās mom did not say much before leaving me to take care of Jordan. I also called Mr.larry to inform him i would not be present at work.
I called my foster parent to inform them that i would be staying with Jordan as well. Mi mom spoke with Jordan on the phone as well, to confirm he was better before i ended the call.
After the phone call, i decided to make use of the bathroom to clean up, since i was yet to take my bath, when i was done i went to get food for myself and Jordan.
I met the doctor in the ward with Jordan when i returned, i greeted the doctor and asked about Jordanās health. āHe is getting better, thanks to God he did not sustain any serious injury. He should be discharged latest by tomorrow morningāthe doctor said. I breathe a sign of relief and thanked the doctor before he left. I sat beside Jordan and told him have gotten him breakfast, He hissed. He looked at me and said āI do not want food, am not hungry for foodā. I held his hand and asked him what he was hungry for. He smiled and said āYou, am hungry for youā I hitted Jordan playfully and released my hand . I unwrapped the take away pack i got and placed it on the bed before handing a spoon over to Jordan. āLets eat Misterā I said. Jordan frowned abit and said āThe accident took my hand. I need someone to feed meā
I smiled and said āThats okay let me call your momā as i made to get my phone. Jordan held my hand and said āNo, i want youā. I just smiled and agreed to feed him. I would sometimes dance and play with the food before finally feeding Jordan with it while he would frown and beg for me to feed him. He was not able to finish the meal, but he ate a better part of it. After eating, i disposed the food pack before giving Jordan his drugs.
##################
We talked about alot of things with me intensionally skipping the one question i wanted to ask him. āLets take a selfieā Jordan said. I frowned at first and ask how we could take a selfie with him on the hospital bed. He insisted and i agreed to it.
I got my phone and i took pictures of us. Jordan requested to see the picture and i bent over to him to show the picture to him. I noticed Jordan was bussy staring at my boobs instead of the picture, i raised my head up and asked Jordan if he wanted to see my boobs or he picture. He winked and said āI prefer the first optionā I smiled and made to leave but Jordan pulled me to himself and i fell on his chest. I could feel his heart beat has he looked into my eyes. He held my face and said āI love you Nancyā. I smiled and told him i love him too. Jordan ran his hand across my hair and said āpromise me you wonāt leave me bby, if you leave i will die. Hun? Promise me.ā I told Jordan i would never leave him and before i could say JERK my lips was on his. The kiss felt beautiful and real, it was as if we were renewing our love with the kiss. I felt every part of his mouth.
Lips in lips, tongue in tongue, mouth in mouth as we continued to kiss. We were interupted with the ringing of my phone. Not until my phone started to ring did i realise, we were in the hospital, we were so lost in our world. I ended the kiss and got my phone from my pocket. The caller I.D was kelvinās. I contemplated on what to do for awhile before i mute my phone and dropped it in my pocket. āYour mom?ā Jordan asked and i replied no. āfrom work?ā Jordan asked again and i replied no. āThen who is it?ā Jordan asked and i told him it was a friend. āA friend i do not know?ā Jordan asked again and i noded. I sat close to Jordan in bed and kissed him lightly before i asked him what happened to him the day before. āHmmm nothing reallyā Jordan said. I rested my head on his shoulder and said ābaby, i just need to know. What happened to you yesterday? You need to tell meā. I slowly massaged Jordanās chest as i asked. Jordan cleared his throat and said āehm i was just depressed. I planned something big for yesterday but all my effort went to waste. I was worried, i even went to your house and your working place but you were not there. I thought maybe you are chilling with another niggaā i smiled and told Jordan to shut up and he asked for my where about, the day before. I told him i was with a friend. āwho is this your new friend miss? I should know all your friends you know?ā Jordan said forming angry. I raised my head from his shoulder and held his face. I kissed Jordan on his nose and said āWhere i was yesterday is in the past. What matter now is that we are together here bby. I just wanna let you know that i love you so very much and i will never leave. Heart that honeyā
Jordan smiled and buried his face in my chest.
