Chris came out of his car angrily, He walked in straight to the house, He dosen’t found his father in the living room so he went in straight to his room, He knocked at the door while his dad asked him to enter. He met his father sitting down on his bed using his medicines, He walked closer to him and said “Dad, just tell me please, Tell me the right you have to go to my girlfriend and tell her to break up with me, Why” He asked angrily. His father dropped the cup he used on the table, He looked at Chris and said “But Chris I want the best for you” Chris suddenly grabbed the cup his father used and threw It on the floor angrily “SPARE ME THAT SHIT DAD” He said angrily “Do you realize that this girl was the one who changed me, Believe me if not for her I will still be my old self, How could you tell me you want the best for me, She is the best one for me, No one can be the best to me, No one can lead me to the right path the way she did” His voice went down a bit, trying to calm down, then he said “Dad I don’t want my old self to be back, If you know that you still want me in that company, If you want me to continue being the good guy, stay away from my girl, Because I will never replace that girl with anyone” He said and walked out angrily, Mr Robert looked so surprised and at the same time confused, He stared at the broken cup on the floor….

Chris came to see his dad’s sister Helen, He sat in the living room waiting for her, Helen’s two years old daughter ran out and hugged Chris, He lifted her up and gave her a peck on the cheek, He placed her down while the girl ran back in, Not too long Helen came out in a nice dress, she hugged him while they both sat down to talk “Oh, I can see a lot of changes, I mean a whole Chris in suit, This is very nice of you” Helen said while Chris looked at her and said “Sis if you still want this kind of Chris, please tell your brother to stay away from my girlfriend” Helen looked so confused “What do you mean Chris, what’s going on” She asked “You won’t believe that my Dad went to my girlfriend’s house, He went there and told her to break up with me, Not only that, My Dad also gave her a cheque just to break up with me. My new self, My good side, My quiet side and every other positive things in me it’s all because of no one but this same girl, she changed me, If not for her I will still be the former Chris, So how could he went to her house and told her to break up with me, Is there anyone that can lead me to the right path than the way she did, Of course there isn’t, Even if there is someone more better than her, I will still choose her, I will choose her over and over again because she is the best one for me, I am trying to be the good guy here, So please kindly help me to tell him to stay away from her, Either he likes it or not am going to get marry to that girl” He said while Helen just stared at him in surprise, She couldn’t help

but to stood up to him and embraced him, Suddenly She said “Am so proud of

you”…….

For few seconds there was a total silent from her, then she said “When am ready to talk to you I will let you know, I still need some time” She said “Ok fine, No problem” He replied her softly,she hanged up the call while Chris just stared at his phone….
