I Wish I Had Held Back – Episode 6
REAL LIFE LOVE STORY by POP FLAIR – Episode 6
We had sex that morning, though she was in
pains but she bore it all because of me,
because of her love, her commitment, her
passion for me. I knew in my heart that if her
circumstances was a bit better I would vow
to marry against all odds. I loved her and I
became so fond of her.
We became more carnal and grew in
intimacy. Everyday we engaged in lascivious
delight and Tope began to enjoy the
pleasurable ecstasy each time we entangled
in the salacious act.
After my service year had ended, I decided to
stay back for a week so as to bid farewell to
Tope. I knew everything we had was going to
end as soon as I departed from Kogi state,
and she knew that too. She couldn’t help but
cry all through the last few days I spent with
her. I felt for her, I was moved but I couldn’t
change what fate had put before us.
The day I was leaving, she saw me off to the
garage. As I waited for the vehicle to be
filled, she was sobbing inordinately, her face
covered in tears and her nose licking…. It was
a sorry sight, I hugged her close and she
cried out loud. “Noo…My life! My life! Oh God
why?”
I said to her. “Tope it’s okay baby, I will miss
you dearly.”
She then said. “What will I do now? Where
will I start from? I cannot love anybody
again. oh God please…”
I was able to calm her down and she
stopped sobbing. We had already created a
scene and people were beginning to say
things. I then said to her. “Tope, please I
need you to have this money, it is N12,000
get a good phone so we can keep in touch.”
She said. “Of what good will it be Thomas?
When I know I cannot have you forever.”
I then said. “Please Tope, I just need to know
how you are faring, to know if I can help you
with anything, to hear your sweet voice
again. Please Tope it means a lot to me.”
She took the money and she started sobbing
again and she said. “Good bye Thomas, good
bye…” As she ran away in tears.
I stood and watched her fade away in sight. I
had tears in my eyes and felt an emptiness
within. The vehicle got filled and I embarked
on my journey to Lagos. As I journeyed I
reflected on the sweet moments Tope and I
shared. I then realized they were the best
times of my life and I felt privileged to have
had such memories.
I got home and met my family, everyone was
happy to see me again. I sure did miss home
and all the comforts, but nothing compared
to Tope, whom I missed dearly. I knew I
would probably not see her again and
everything we had would only linger in
thoughts till they grow dim with time.
