All that whispers to her mind is that she has gotten to the right place; the right man has finally come into her life. Her responsibilities as a woman has triggered to the level of understanding and endurance . No wonder they say that every level has a different demon she murmured. Kenneth who has been sited behind her touched her on the shoulder

   “Obi mu what did my mum tell you and what has been running through your mind” she asked

Amanda who didn’t know that he was already awake remained shocked and refused to talk, Ken moved closer to her and held her so close to himself persuading her to let out  what his mum to her, but she slammed the door of the topic by making him to know that the discussion was meant for only women. Kenneth chuckled “so she has poisoned you on keeping secrets, sorry I forgot it was my mum that discussed with you” he replied and went back to sleep.

. Tear rained down her eyes uncontrollably as she scattered the whole place, looking so played on, all through the years of their relationship she has never seen such guilt and lies consumed Kenneth’s face like she did at the hotel reception. Easily she could forgive so easily the reason behind the guilt and lies for no man is perfect, but what hurts her most was how long he kept her waiting at the reception. She felt like the world has finally come to an end, she at every interval cursed nature and life for bringing them together.
