EPISODE 1
We sat beside each other as we watched a
home video. My heart pounding rapidly as i
sat close to him, i could tell deep down
within me that i had fallen in love yet
again. He simply sat beside me like a log
of wood, focusing all his attention to the
movie.
“What is wrong with this boy?” i wondered
unhappily,
“Doesn’t he seem attracted to me the way i
feel feel for him?, i began asking myself
questions i cant give answers to.
____
That fateful day truly was the third time i
was spending my afternoon with him, yet he
failed to notice my moves, he only acted
like he has never developed any iota of
feelings for any lady before.
Samuel 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 behaviour. But getting him to
reciprocate my good gestures towards him
was a very hard task.
His intense behaviour 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 than my
likeness for him.
He was in his 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 chair,
“Good night” i said to him unhappily, 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
my feelings but i 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, hmmmm” I murmured happily,
falling asleep and dreaming of good times…
