Harobed TALES

Now I lay here wondering how she would have felt, what her laughter would have been like , what her smile would have looked like or even how her touch would have made the difference.. well I guess now I'd never know.  I'd never experience her love, her anger , her tears or even her jokes because I was foolish enough to let her go. What would have been a forever love story can no longer be told to the world because we would never be. Oh my dearest I wish I had fought harder for you to stay, I wish I hadn't seen you as a burden but rather an exhilarating joy. If I could turn back the hands of time I would definitely do better, I would show you how much you make my world go round but sadly I will never get that chance because this is not a probability equation. I wish I had never listened to Tina, I wish I had never walked into that clinic, I wish I had looked into the nurses eye a little longer and be convinced not to do it or when she said it was too risky cos I was too ...

Besides Lanre ,his driver did less of driving and more of monitoring her daily moves and always came back with the same old boring routi...

 She could barely concentrate, everything she tried to do got her thinking about her phone  conversation with Chike earlier today. Oh! How she had missed him! The way his voice rippled with so much love, when he called her Teni. She nearly burnt Tola's toast today, because she was lost in her thoughts on Chike . He wanted to meet, but she knew Kunle would never let it.   Funny how he jumped from one open leg to another, without a thought for how she felt ,but would almost burn into ashes with fury if another man as much as smiled at her.
