BETRAYAL Episode 25 Dave stared at his injured finger for a while before descending heavily on lynda, kicking, hitting and slapping her randomly with fury. Lynda’s cry soon shook the whole lodge that fateful evening, making us freeze like statues as she received Dave’s blows all alone. I truly have never heard nor witnessed anyone cry with such pain and anguish before in my life, but instead of rendering any help, i just stood and watched as if I was watching a home video. Perhaps it was because my strength failed me that moment or because i was too scared to jump into the fight, but then whatever it was that prevented me from intervening that moment equally turned me into a very heartless girl who just stood and watched a fellow girl as she got beaten in a fight which truly started because i happened to be in that very room that moment. “Supposing Amara and i left things as they were, all these wouldn’t have happened but i guess it’s now too late to be regretting” i reasoned as i watched him beat up lynda. Amara was still too stunned to intervene, as she sat speechless on the bed with both hands on her head. After Dave’s revelation about her boyfriend that fateful evening, she just colored up and kept to herself like an EBOLA patient. Finally i heaved a sigh of relief with a deep breathe as Dave’s two friends rushed up and dragged him out from Lynda, who just laid motionless from the terrifying blows she got from him. The poor girl really had given up with her struggles when her strength failed her, yet Dave really was very furious to care or even notice. Supposing his two friends didn’t break him away from her that moment, i truly don’t know what could have happened, perhaps. We all should be inside prison by now because the scene would have scapegoat me…. Dave and his friends finally left us alone in ‘pieces’ and i was then left with the huge task of reviving Lynda. Poor girl who was trampled upon, humiliated and beaten all because of love. People don’t believe me when i do say that most things about life is either cruel, comes from cruelty or ends with cruelty, but here again Lynda’s case is just but one out of a million cases, and even though i blamed her, i still understood her plight, because not every girl has the strength nor courage of letting go a guy with whom she shared a unique portion of her heart and body with…. With shaking hands, i lifted up her head and tried to revive her…. “Dave is a devil” Lynda cried as i helped her sit up, “i will report him to school security and the police” I assured her, “no don’t do that, it will only make matters worst, just let me handle it” she replied sadly, while i looked at her with pity before shaking my head sadly. “Don’t worry about me just go to your room i want to be left alone” she added sorrowfully, “why, you are yet to regain your strength, i’m not going anywhere” i replied with a heavy heart, but she calmly pushed me away from her side, “cyndii please just go with your friend, trust me i’m okay” she assured with red eyes. I shrugged with resignation, stood up and dragged Amara with me as i quietly left her room. My legs shook as i walked out from Lynda’s room that evening, while my heart wept as if i was the one who received the beating. Surely i was very downcast with a guilty feeling because i knew i caused the whole fight by being in her room that evening. “do you believe that Chuks is a cultist?” Amara suddenly asked as we climbed the stairs leading to our floor, instantly dragging me away from my thoughts, “i seriously don’t know dear, life itself is a mystery” I calmly replied. Even though i was shocked when i heard Dave’s revelation on Chuk’s involvement in cultism, i wasn’t entirely surprised because i really never liked him for once but just tolerated him because of my friend, perhaps that was why i easily believed Dave’s revelation even though i clearly hid my feelings from her, because i really didn’t have the strength to take on another scene… “i will confront him tonight” she muttered quietly, “good but be diplomatic when doing that” i advised. She said no other word and left for her room…. I barely had settled in my room, when Benjamin’s knock shook and woke me from my thoughts, “please dear i’ll like to be left alone” i pleaded when I opened my door. He stared at me with surprise but i looked away and avoided his gaze. “hope you are okay?” he asked, “yea but please let me be for now, i’ll come over to your room later” i pleaded. He stared at me for a while, shrugged and left without further questions, even though i knew his mind must be filled with questions that very moment. Sometimes guys always mis- interprete or don’t understand when we beg to be left alone, most of them however do oblige us with doubts and suspicion in their mind. Most times when we girls go through a painful experience which we prefer not to share with anyone, we do like keeping to ourselves and having a boyfriend around always spoils the whole thing because of their inquisitive nature. No matter how much we love a guy, there are still some secrets we do keep away from him … I really couldn’t help but wonder what was in Benjamin’s mind that fateful evening, but my heart soon leapt when i heard someone knock on my door with {Dave’s usual pattern} which left me stunned, speechless and indecisive as i contemplated whether to answer {open} my door or not…….. 26 COMING SONG, My neighbor pikin dey do birthday and I no wan miss d cake, lol..............
