PRICELESS DREAMS THIRTEEN (13)

"What did you just say?", Frank asked. "Don't play dumb with me Frank", Leticia fired back showing him the text he had received. "I won't argue with you over this". "Rita is just a friend and I have not even for once thought of her beyond that", Frank added. "My goodness, I can't believe that you would think of me in such a way", Frank said looking somewhat disappointed. "Come off it Frank, that was the same thing you said about my roommate, Rejoice". "I still haven't forgotten about that incident", Leticia added. Frank wanted to keep his cool but Leticia would not allow him to. She kept going on and on about it. "You know what, call Rita and ask her yourself", Frank cut in. "It will make a lot of things clear". "I won't speak to any lover of yours", Leticia replied. "Frank, you know what, just take me back home". "I don't feel like going out anymore", Leticia said. "Has it gotten to this?", Frank asked. "It hasn't gotten to anything, Frank", Leticia said. Frank drove in silence and took the next U-turn and headed for Leticia's neighborhood. As they got there, Leticia got out of the car, closed the door, bent over and said, "Frank, we should take a short break for a while",  Leticia said. "I want to clear my head", Leticia added. "Tish, come on, don't do this", Frank said. "The first time you got out of this car, we had just shared a kiss that bonded us, today you get out and you want to tear us apart with your words", he added. Leticia bade him goodbye and said, "Call me". Immediately she entered the house, Leticia called Gabriel and told him all what had happened, "I can't believe Frank would do this again", she complained. "Do it again?", Gabriel asked. "Back in school, we had a similar incident", but I overlooked it, thinking it was going to serve as a lesson to him but I guess it was not to be". "After all, guys will always be guys, maybe except you; for now". "Promise me that you wont be like all guys", Leticia said. "You should know me better than this, Leticia. "I am above these kind of things", Gabriel added. Frank knew he was losing Leticia gradually so he stepped up his duties in trying to keep her. He spoke with many doctors and personally funded the travel expenses of a Cuban brain surgeon. He was fulfilling his self-made promise of helping Rose from her epileptic fits. Frank took the chance to visit Leticia's father to inform him of his intentions. "Thank you so much for your efforts", Frank, Leticia's father said. "I'd rather we left her like that, I would not want to risk finding a solution to her problem and losing her in the process". It is said that in the absence of best, good is better than worse", he added. "I understand that perfectly, sir but I have put together a team of trusted and competent doctors and they will see to it that nothing happens to Rose", Frank assured Rose's father. With little more convincing, Leticia's father agreed and signed the parental consent form to allow the operation to go on. Frank had not told Leticia of his intentions yet so he invited her out and told her about it. "I love you so much, Frank", Leticia said as Frank broke the news to her. She kissed him and hugged him tightly. "You are the best". For the first time in a while, the two of them had an incident-free night out. Frank knew he was well on his way of winning back Leticia's heart with this move. Frank went home that night and felt some satisfaction deep inside. He called Rita to talk about the incident and to make some enquiries since Rita worked in the Paediatric centre in her hospital. "Hello", Frank said as Rita answered the call. There was a long silence so Frank said a number of 'hellos' before he got a response. "Hello, Frank", Rita said. Immediately Frank heard her voice, he noticed something was wrong "Are you crying, Rita?", Frank asked. "I will be fine, don't worry about me, dear", Rita said. "Come on Rita, talk to me". "What is the matter?", Frank asked. "I feel so alone, Frank and I don't know why",Rita said. "You can talk to me about anything", Frank assured her. They spoke for hours and soon, Rita was laughing hysterically. "Before Rita ended the call, she said softly, "I love you, Frank". Frank did not know what to say but responded, "Love you bunch".
Soon, the day for Rose's operation had come, as usual, the 'prayer warrior', led the whole house in an all-night vigil to pray for a successful operation. Rose was taken into the operating room after being sedated. Halfway through the operation, many doctors were called to provide assistance, it had been established that Rose was bleeding out. It was a very intense moment because at a point, Augustus, Rose's father was hearing rumors that the doctors had lost Rose. Frank was confused. He was not allowed into the operating room. "I can't forgive myself if anything happens to this child", he wondered to himself and prayed for a miracle. After several hours, it was finally confirmed that the operation had been a success and the portion of Rose's brain that was causing the seizures had been restored. There were shouts of joy and jubilation in Leticia's house when her father phoned in to tell them of the new development. Augustus could not thank Frank and the doctors enough for saving his daughter. Rita was the first person Frank called to announce the good news to. She was very excited upon hearing the news. "I could kiss you right now", she said. Upon realizing what she said, she countered by saying, "that didn't come out right". "I totally understand, Rita", Frank said. That afternoon, Frank and Rita met after work and had a drink to celebrate the operation. "I am proud of you and all your efforts, Frank, God bless you", Rita said. "I really appreciate your time and company, Rita", Frank replied. He moved in to hug her but Rita went in and kissed him. He returned the kiss and left for Leticia's house. Upon reaching there, he was told Leticia was not at home. Her boss had given her the day off and she spent it with Gabriel in his apartment. Frank called her twice but there was no response. Frank then left for the hospital to watch over Rose while her dad went back home to change. Leticia was laying in Gabriel's bed when his phone kept vibrating from messages. Gabriel had gone to take a shower. Leticia then stretched her hand and picked up his phone. The last of six messages read, "It's been a while I heard from you, call me". The sender's number looked a bit familiar to Leticia. She quickly copied the number   to refer to it later and she placed Gabriel's phone from where she picked it. After an hour, she was dressing up to go and visit her sister at the hospital. She remembered the number she copied from Gabriel's phone and wanted to satisfy her curiosity. She planned to call the number and just listen to the voice on the other side. She dialled the number and pressed the 'send' button. She could not believe what she was seeing. Out of shock, she quickly pressed the 'reject' button several times. She had just dialled Rejoice's number....WHAT NEXT? My name is Edwin Oko Lamptey and this is PRICELESS DREAMS....Stay tuned.

PRICELESS DREAMS TWELVE (12)

To avoid suspicion, Leticia gently tucked the phone back into her pocket, "It is nothing I can't handle", she said. "Is it work related?", Frank asked with a worried look on his face.  "It is something to do with a case we are involved in". "My boss wanted to find out if I had gathered all the files he needed for the next hearing". Leticia had just told another lie and she knew that she would have to keep telling lie after lie just to cover up for her previous "sin". She put her head on Frank's shoulder as they walked. "This is all your fault, Frank", she wondered to herself. "If you had not seen the falling star and gotten all emotional on me, I would have known where I stand with you because you would have known the truth", she added. They walked back to Leticia's house, Frank kissed her in the dark and bade her goodbye. As Frank got home, he heard the tap running in the kitchen and he knew it was his mother. So he went to check up on her. When he got there, he saw an unfamiliar figure; the figure had long hair which was not grey like his mother's, the figure appeared curvaceous from behind. He instantly wanted to appear nice because he liked what he was seeing. "What have you done with my mum?" Frank asked jokingly. The figure turned and responded, "She is in the hall". "I am just helping her finish the dishes", the figure said and turned revealing her identity. The figure looked more appealing from the front and there was something about the voice that kept Frank rooted to the spot and eager to hear the voice more. "Hi, I am Frank and I live here",he opened the fridge and took a sachet of water to drink. The mysterious young lady laughed and said, "I know who you are, Frank". "Your mother has told me a lot about you". My name is Rita, just so you know". I work in the same hospital with your mum". Frank took a liking for her and they chatted, more on healthcare. Soon, Frank's mother walked into the kitchen and said, "You guys look good together",as she cleared her throat to announce her presence. "Rita works with me and I asked her to help me prepare dinner because I was not feeling too well". "I didn't expect you back this early but I  am glad you two have met". Frank gave his mother a slight shoulder rub to shut her up and asked to be excused. "It was nice meeting you, Rita and thanks for helping out with our dinner". He quickly left for his room to prevent his mother from sending the wrong signals to Rita with the line of conversation ensuing. The next day, Leticia was on her way to the office and suddenly remembered the text she received from Gabriel. "Oh my God, what web am I entangling myself in? I love Frank but now, Gabriel is confusing me". "Help me, Oh God". As she said this, she entered the office, dropped her bag and headed straight for Gabriel's cubicle. As she got there, Gabriel was busy making notes from a case file he was reading. His face lit up when he saw Leticia. "The look on your face tells me that you have good news for me", Gabriel said. Leticia tried to hide the smile on her face but it was too late. "I knew it!", Gabriel yelled excitedly. "Gabby, why are you doing this?" "I have told you that I am seeing someone and the last thing I could do is to hurt his feelings". "Please let us try to remain colleagues and no more", Leticia added. "Okay", Gabriel responded and went back to writing in his notepad. Leticia was shocked at Gabriel's response and asked, "Is that all you are going to say?" "As far as I am concerned, you have made things clear to me so this conversation ends here", Gabriel responded. "What kind of person are you?" Leticia asked. "Did you just want to make love to me?". Gabriel dropped his pencil, looked up at Leticia and said, "Ever since that incident happened, it has been impossible for me to stop thinking about you in fact...", suddenly he got out of the chair and pinned Leticia to the wall and they shared a passionate kiss. "Gabby stop it", Leticia said as she struggled to push him back. "Maybe this will send you a clearer message in case you think I am going to give you up so easily". Leticia quickly run to her desk and sat there for a while not knowing what to do. She planned on putting in her resignation letter to save her relationship with Frank because she knew deep inside that she had started to develop a thing for Gabriel. After days of serious thinking, she  decided on what to do "I will date the two of them". "I don't know which of them will marry me so let me just play along but God, you know that deep down my heart, I love Frank more", she thought to herself. Unknown to her, she had started taking a liking for Gabriel more. It was probably due to the fact that they spent more time together. It is true what is said about new relationships, the chats they had were endless, they got to know each other more and talked almost all the time. Frank had started to notice that Leticia was drifting away from him but he felt it was stress that occupied her mind. She began to feel more comfortable around Gabriel than around Frank. Leticia now was not returning Frank's calls as frequently as she used to. Frank therefore decided to confront her. "You are changing, Tish". "We rarely talk these past few days". "Is anything the matter?", Frank asked. "I am fine Frank", Leticia responded. "I  just don't want to bother you so much when you are at work", Leticia said. "I have never complained, have I?", Frank asked. "I hope you are not suspecting that I am cheating on you", Leticia asked. "Far from that but I just want us to spend more time with each other". Leticia's attitude was not changing for the better, rather, she fell more in love with Gabriel. Frank felt talking to her would mean that he was nagging so he was quiet over her attitude. He lay on his bed one night and received a call. It was Rita, she had called to check up on him. "How did you get my number?", Frank asked feeling uncomfortable about how his mother was giving out his personal information without his consent. Like magic, Frank and Rita started chatting and soon, they could not go a day without hearing from each other. One day, as Frank drove back home from work, he thought to himself, "What if Leticia finds out about Rita?" "I just like her but I hope Leticia doesn't think otherwise because I love her so much". Soon, Frank and Leticia started growing apart and Leticia got alarmed so she asked Frank to take her out. On their way, Frank's phone kept ringing but he didn't answer. Soon there was a text message tone. Leticia asked to see the phone and she picked it up from the dashboard. She went into his messages and the new message read, "Frank please pick up my calls, I am worried". "Frank, how could you?, Leticia asked. "I know you are cheating on me"..... More soon.

PRICELESS DREAMS...EPISODE ELEVEN (11)

The last thing Leticia expected to happen was for Rose to be hit by her fits when they visited Frank's house. She insisted on leaving her behind at home but Frank's persistent calls to come along with her had now turned ugly. Worse of all, the attack couldn't have chosen a better day to happen and even more worse was the fact that it chose a wrong spectator. When Leticia got to the hall, she quickly run to Rose's side and held her head still. She turned and looked at Frank in a distasteful way as if to tell him that 'I told you so, this is all your fault'. Frank's mother was shocked and rushed to go and get her first aid kit when Leticia came to watch over her sister. She returned almost immediately and started preparing to dress Rose's head wound. Leticia held Frank's mother and told her, "Mummy please wait, sometimes she has multiple occurrences so I'd rather you wait a while". "How often does this happen?" Frank's mother asked. "Once in a while, I guess it happens when she is overexcited or nervous". "Truth be told, she hasn't seen a lot of all these nice things in a house like this before so I am sure it could well be today's trigger". Soon, Rose gained consciousness  and Leticia allowed Frank's mother to dress Rose's head wound. They spent almost the whole day at Frank's house. After dinner, Frank went to drop off Leticia and Rose at home and started on his way back home. Before he got back home, he knew that definitely, his mother would have something to say about the incident that took place. Immediately he got back, he walked straight to the hall, where he knew his mother would be waiting. "I know what you want to say, but I can assure you that everything is going to be fine", Frank said as he stepped in the hall to avoid a long lecture. "What do you know, Frank?, his mother asked. "What kind of evil spirit have you taken upon yourself?" "We have spent hard-earned money and sacrificed a lot to see you through school and we won't watch you plunge yourself downhill by saddling yourself with this evil family". "I know your father won't see anything wrong with this but you are my son and I love you, so please, I see something wrong". "My intuition has never failed and you know it". "Find someone else, there are many sweet nurses in my hospital, you can pass by and do an assessment". "What will be more beautiful than a young doctor who has a pretty and smart nurse as his wife? "Think about it, my son". "I rest my case", Frank's mother added. "Mummy, that is an unfair assessment". "When you meet the entire family, you will like them and you would know that your so called priced intuition was just luck after all", Frank argued. "I want to go to bed now", Frank said and excused himself. Back at Leticia's house, she was recounting to the occupants of the house the events of the day and sought their counsel. "I am finished", she lamented. "I could see that Frank's mother was beginning to like me until the unfortunate event happened". All the people in the house shared their opinion. The 'prayer warrior' said, "Don't worry, we must embark on a three-day dry fast to loose certain things and by the third day, you will surely possess your possessions". The 'fighters' agreed on the fact that so far as Frank was bold enough to introduce her to his mother, something good was bound to come out of their relationship because according to them, the mothers are the most difficult to convince when such an introduction is made and by virtue of the fact that she had already started to like her, she was in for gold. As they shared their opinion, the 'counsellor' grabbed Leticia aside and said, "My sister, if you haven't slept with him yet, you better do before another woman does, because, if such a thing happens, you will surely be finished". Soon their small compound was deserted leaving only Leticia sitting in the middle of the house and tossing the thoughts that were shared by the people in the house. She sat in silence and began to think to herself, "Is God punishing me for betraying Frank by sleeping with Gabriel?" "What happened between us was a fatal mistake". "I am really confused about all this". "This week hasn't been good at all". Should I tell Frank about Gabriel's incident?, she asked herself. "Or should I just allow Frank to also sleep with me so that it cancels out what Gabriel did? "I honestly don't want that to happen because he might change his mind after he has taken a bite of my cherry and I can't live with myself if that should happen". "Frank deserves better, he has been really good to me and this goodness has even extended to my family members". Leticia was at her wit's end. She decided to tell Frank about Gabriel's incident so she asked Frank to meet her in her neighborhood the following evening. On the night of the meeting, Leticia and Frank took a walk in her neighborhood and Frank really enjoyed the sight of some things he felt were strange judging from his rich background. He saw houses made up of wooden planks, he saw drinking bars that could pass as refuse dumps to say the least. As they took the walk and reached an open field, Frank chanced upon a falling star and asked Leticia to make a wish, she thought for a while and said, "I want us to be together forever". Frank, who was already filled with emotions looked at her and said, "You mean more than this  world to me, Tish". " I just want you to be by my side forever and continue to be my 'hard to get lover'. "I know the pressure is great but still remain faithful like you've always been". "Just so you know, if your name was ever used in a song, that song would become my favourite song of all". Leticia didn't want to spoil the moment so she reserved her confession for a later date because Frank's words always did something to her. They shared a kiss and continued strolling. Leticia's phone beeped several times while they strolled but she ignored the beeps. Soon her phone vibrated. She let go of Frank's hand and reached for her phone. She had missed several calls from Gabriel. He had sent a message so she opened it and it read "Leticia, I can't stop thinking about you after what happened between us". "Please save me from my misery and tell me something at the office tomorrow". "Love, Gab"... "Is everything alright?" "You look shocked", Frank said as he stretched his neck to look at what was on the phone ... More soon. My name is Edwin Oko Lamptey and this is a "story about a journey RAT (RANDOM AFRICAN THOUGHT).

PRICELESS DREAMS TEN (10)

Ever since Leticia started working at the law firm, Frank noticed a few changes in her attitude. She seemed to have less and less time to sit and talk. If she had to talk, it was how a client had brought a case she thought was winnable if her boss approached it in a particular way. On one of their nights out on a weekend, Leticia went on and on about her work. Frank cut in and said, "Why don't you pursue and aspire to become a lawyer?" It seems to me that you are really passionate about it". "Gabriel, I really am". "Some of the cases are so intriguing and they appear to be following logic but they keep on taking twists and turns, filled with surprise tactics, surprise attacks and implicating evidence", Leticia said. "Hold on, you just called me Gabriel", Frank interjected. Leticia looked stunned and asked, "Did I?" "I am sorry Frank dear", Leticia added. "You still haven't answered my question", Frank said forcefully trying to satisfy his curiosity. "Relax, he is just a lawyer at the firm". "My boss asked us to work together on arranging case files". "I also assist him in researching on cases and I send him model cases whenever I get them from my boss". "He is on probation so he doesn't really go to court". "We therefore spend most of the working hours together when my boss is out of the office and is in court", Leticia explained. "Is he married?", Frank asked. "No", Leticia replied. "He says he is still looking for the perfect woman to compliment his ambitions". As she spoke, Frank looked at her in silence. "You guys talk about your private lives too?" "Yes", Leticia replied, looking curious and tried to anticipate Frank's next question. "Gabriel relax, nothing will ever happen between I and him". "Besides, he knows I am in a relationship and he is too much of a gentleman", Leticia said. "This, I find hard to believe because you just called me Gabriel again". "I don't want it to seem like I am nagging or complaining too much". "Just know that I love you so much and I am just a man who can also get jealous". "Please be careful", Frank added. "Frank, I know that many people doubt this when it is said but take it from me, nothing or no one can change my love for you", Leticia said. "I am a guy and I know what guys are capable of", Frank argued. "That is hasty generalization, my dear Frank", Leticia rebutted. "All guys are not the same", Leticia added. Leticia spent more time working with Gabriel at work and soon, she had grown fond of him. She was always in a hurry to go to work to see him. Gabriel was tall, well-built and always dressed sharply. He came from a well to do family. He told her of how his father was duped by his business partners and for a while, they had to live in poverty till his father struggled to get back on his feet. He vowed to become a lawyer so that things like that never happened to anyone again. That passion and drive made him excel so much as a young lawyer. Soon, he had become a priceless asset to the firm because of his impeccable understanding of the law. He often stayed long hours in the office to go over cases and also helped his boss prepare for cases. He was also of the view that Leticia had the potential of becoming a brilliant lawyer because she had passion for her job. Gabriel started taking keen interest in Leticia but from the time he entered the firm, he vowed not to entangle himself with 'office romance' so he steered clear off developing any sexual feeling or emotional attachment for her. So he struggled to keep their relationship at the "colleague stage". Frank branched into brain surgery and put all his effort into it. His main aim of venturing into that field was because of Rose. He vowed to help her treat the fits that she had. He knew that if he was able to achieve that feat, Leticia will always be in his debt and it would seal their love because he knew how important the welfare of her family was to her so he vowed to do whatever he could to cure her.  Leticia was in the office when Gabriel asked for her opinion on a case, she felt it was an easy case because the evidence was implicating. She pointed out a few flaws in the opponent's case after studying the case for a while. Gabriel looked stunned and still maintained that she should enrol in the law school. Gabriel took the case file from her and out of nowhere, he kissed Leticia. It felt good so Leticia returned the kiss. Soon, they were all over the office table making love. After the incident, Leticia walked up to Gabriel's cubicle and said, "This should not have happened, Gabby". "You know I have a boyfriend and an affair is the last thing I want to have". "More so, one with you because my boyfriend warned me", she said. "You discuss me with your boyfriend?, Gabriel asked rhetorically "I was carried away by your beauty and intelligence", Gabriel said. "We should not mix work with emotions, please". "Let us act professionally and please for the record, this should not happen again", Gabriel added. After being with Gabriel, Leticia became distant from Frank and it made him more worried and suspicious. He therefore wanted to solidify their relationship so he asked Leticia to come and visit him at home. She rejected the offer initially but Frank insisted and she finally agreed to see him. On the day of the visit, she went with Rose because Frank insisted on bringing her. When they got there, Frank introduced Leticia and Rose to his mother and made clear his intentions for her.  Her mother, who was highly educated but remained staunchly superstitious vigorously interrogated Leticia. They instantly took a liking for each other. Frank asked to be excused to speak to Leticia. Immediately they entered Frank's room, Frank's mother screamed out and called for the two of them to return. When they got into the hall, Rose was bleeding and vigorously convulsing...More soon

PRICELESS DREAMS...EPISODE NINE (9)

"What did you just say?", Frank asked as if he didn't hear Rejoice the first time. "I said Leticia is coming here, duh", Rejoice said. Frank was totally confused and kept turning in circles. "Is it that trouble knows you by name or something?". "Everywhere your name is mentioned, the only thing that comes in it's wake is trouble", Frank said. "Wait a minute, you knew she was coming here and you deliberately came here with a flimsy excuse of coming to apologise for that fiasco and then end up here just when she is coming to make the untrue appear true and to destroy my chances of ever getting back with Leticia". Frank added. "That is so not true", Rejoice cut in. Before she could rebut Frank's accusation, he held her neck and pushed her against the door, "now you, listen to me". "I am going to get Leticia back, do you understand?" "I don't expect you or anyone else to stand in my way". "I wish I could just throw you over my balcony but that would be more scandalous",Frank added. "I am going to tell you what we are going to do". "I am going to go out there to meet her, go unto my balcony, and hide yourself behind the fridge, there is a blind for changing there, fix it in such a way that it is going to make you appear invisible". "Do you understand?" "Should anything go wrong, I am going to ensure that I kill you, try me, young lady, try me", Frank warned. He pushed her aside and showed her where the balcony was. He kept his composure and started opening the door, before he stepped out, he turned and shouted after her, "even if you so much as breathe too heavily, you would be in trouble". "Funny how your game plan has blown up in your face right?" Frank then stepped out and closed the door behind him. He hurried to the porter's cabin and bought some sardines and he heard his name as he took his change. He turned and acted so surprised, "Wow, Leticia, what a pleasant surprise". "How are you?" "I've missed you to pieces". "I am fine", Leticia responded. They walked down the hallway towards Frank's room. As they got to the door, Frank held the door knob and turned to look at Leticia. "What is it?",Leticia asked. "Nothing, I just missed that pretty face and awesome smile", Frank flattered. "Your flattery doesn't tickle me one bit", Leticia said coldly. "Just open the door". Frank opened the door and they stepped in. Leticia said her purpose for coming there was to return a blazer she took from Frank one cold night. She started walking towards the balcony's door to drop it in the laundry basket Frank kept there. As she opened the door, Frank called out her name, "Leticia, I love you". She shook her head and went unto the balcony. She immediately screamed from the balcony, "Frank, what is this? Frank's heart missed a beat and he asked, "what is what?". He quickly rushed to the balcony. Leticia pointed to him a bunch of dirty dishes it seemed he had left unwashed. "Please I am sorry, I will clear it immediately", Frank said as he realized it was not about Rejoice. He placed the blind properly and started collecting the dishes. He asked permission to wash them later and Leticia agreed. They both stepped back into the room and Frank used it as an opportunity to win her love back. It seemed the more he tried to defend himself, the angrier Leticia got. "You know what hurts me most are lies so please just tell me the truth", Leticia said. "I have been telling you the truth ever since this issue started", Frank begged. After all his pleas had fallen on deaf ears, Leticia said,"I want to take my leave Frank". "Okay", Frank agreed without arguing. As Leticia got to the door, she turned and suddenly hugged Frank, "I miss you so much Frank, I just had to find a way of coming to see you so I searched through my stuff and found the blazer so I quickly decided to come and visit you". She kissed Frank and before they could realize, they were all over each other. Frank pushed her unto his bed and lay on top of her. She pushed him aside and said, "prove to me that you really miss me and want to spend the rest of your life with me". "You know I would do anything for you", Frank said, as he unbuttoned his shirt forgetting that Rejoice was still on the balcony. "I am not asking you to go down on me yet my dear". "You should be able to wait till we are legally married to have me", that is what I mean". "Wear your shirt and accompany me to the roadside". "Tish, why?", Frank asked almost wanting to cry. "I hear you". "Let us go", Frank said, hiding his disappointment. They stepped out and Leticia left for her hostel. Frank went back into the room and went to his balcony. He parted the blind but to his surprise, Rejoice was not behind it. He looked over the balcony to see if she had accidentally fallen over but she was not there. He got alarmed and came back into the room and called out Rejoice's name. "Rejoice, are you here?" He heard a squeak and soon, Rejoice came out from under the bed. Frank burst out into uncontrollable laughter. "You see where wrong desire can end a person?", Frank asked her. She was so ashamed as she explained, "there was so much heat coming out from behind the fridge so I figured the bed would be a better hiding spot". "That was smart on your part anyway", Frank teased. Frank bade her farewell and asked her to leave. Soon Leticia and Frank were back together. They stayed together till they both completed school. Rejoice was never bold enough to come clean with Leticia. This created a big dent in their friendship after school. Frank worked in a hospital and Leticia worked as a lawyer's secretary. It was the period she met Gabriel, a young lawyer who had just been employed by her boss.....more soon. The tables are about to turn.

PRICELESS DREAMS EIGHT (8).

History was Leticia's favourite subject. She was so passionate about it but after she saw the picture of Frank with the scandalous caption that came with it, she totally lost the history professor. She convinced herself that it was one of the pranks they played on each other. She checked her calendar and she realized that it was several months after 1st April so it could not be an April Fool's Day prank. Many thoughts and scenarios flooded her mind. "This can't be possible", she wondered."Frank and Rejoice?" she thought to herself, "they are worlds apart". "I remember Frank jokingly made reference to her body and said he felt intimidated by her because of her curves". "Did he mean it in a desirous way?" "Was it this same desire that would cause him to want to sleep with her behind my back?". "They say men are like dogs and would want to bed any woman so I won't be surprised if Frank actually is part of something like this, after all, all men are the same". "What made me even think that Frank was going to be any different?". Leticia sat there totally confused. "Maybe I am jumping the gun", she thought to herself. "Women can be as sly as snakes and they will do anything to trap a man they want and I know Rejoice is very capable of such a thing", Leticia added. "Come to think of it, my Frankie will never visit my hostel without calling me first to check with me". She wanted to get back to the hostel to clear all the doubt that had flooded her mind. It was against the policy of the history professor for anyone to walk out of his class without his permission. Before the semester began, he spelt out clearly that, it would only be upon the death of one's parents that he would allow any student leave the class to attend to the emergency but aside that case, no one could go to him with any other excuse so Leticia had to wait for the lecture to be officially over before she could move out. It was approximately forty-eight minutes more left for the class to be over. Leticia kept checking her watch probably after every five minutes but it seemed the more she checked, the slower the hands of time moved. Those forty-eight minutes appeared to be somewhat like hours to Leticia. Finally, the lecturer closed the class and Leticia sped off to her hostel. On her way, she went through her WhatsApp chats and updated herself on the issue at hand. She knew where to find Frank. Back at the hostel, Rejoice was surrounded by some other female friends. She appeared visibly shaken by her "ordeal". "I didn't intend to blow this out of proportion like this", she thought to herself as the other ladies sympathized with her. "My plan was just to scare him a little, now see what I have caused?". "How am I going to undo what has already been done?" "I cannot go back on my words but I must try to salvage what I can to make this prank-turned-rape saga go away", she added. "Frank is going to kill me". She went downstairs and asked to speak to the administrator. She told the administrator that she had been already humiliated by Frank's action and the fact that he had been caught would serve as a bitter lesson to him so she pleaded that the case be discontinued. The administrator agreed and decided to release Frank. Immediately Frank stepped out, he met Leticia. "Seeing you here alone confirms that the rumours are true", Leticia said."Frank, how could you do this to me?", she asked. "All this while that we've been together, you have never asked to sleep with me and I really respect you for that but even if you really wanted to have sex, it should have been anyone else but Rejoice", she added. "I am hurt and I am disappointed in you, Frank". As she spoke, Frank did not utter a word and was just  anxious for her to finish so that he could counter her submission. "Of all my detractors", Frank started, "I didn't count you as one of them". "Just check your phone and check our chats to see what is there and see who is telling the actual truth". As Leticia brought her phone out to check, Frank snatched the phone from her hand and started going through it. He spoke as he carried out this action. "You sent me a message this morning inviting me to...", "this cannot be possible", Frank started off, "baby, have you deleted any of our chats?", a bewildered Frank asked Leticia. "I have lost my phone through this unfortunate situation but I would prove to you that all this is one big, fat lie". Leticia looked at him with pity in her eyes and said, "Frank, please stop humiliating yourself more than you already have. Just go to your hostel and stay there". "I don't want to see you again". "As it stands now, I am going to be the laughing stock of the hostel for the rest of my days here". "The humiliation ends here and now". Frank was lost for words, he did not know how to defend himself without any evidence. He begged Leticia but she walked out on him. She went into her room and apologised to Rejoice for Frank's 'inhuman behaviour'. After that, she cried for days. Weeks had passed and Leticia had refused to pick up Frank's call or see him even though she had missed him so much. Rejoice found a way to bond with Leticia but wanted to apologise to Frank also. Frank had closed from an evening anatomy class and was preparing rice when he heard a knock on his door. He opened the door and the words that came from his mouth were, "you are the last person on earth I expect to see within a hundred meter radius from me so what do you want now, Rejoice?" "You even have the effrontery to knock on my door without shame". She forced her way into Frank's room and knelt down to apologise, "Frank please forgive me for putting you through such a trial". "I cannot continue to live with myself knowing full well that I owe you this apology", she added. "I would do anything to patch up for this act of mine but please forgive me". "Even if I forgive you, it is not going to bring Leticia back into my life", Frank said. "I have lost her forever". "Do you know  how that makes me feel?", Frank asked. "Just leave before I change my mind and strangle you here and now". Rejoice got up to leave and Frank, like the gentleman he was, held the door wide open for her. In a few minutes, there was another heavy knock on the door. Frank got alarmed and opened the door with caution. "What are you still doing here, Rejoice?", Frank yelled out. Rejoice pushed him aside, entered the room and quickly shut the door behind her. "I think Leticia is coming here to see you"...

PRICELESS DREAMS SEVEN (7)

The moment their lips touched, Frank pulled back and said, "Rejoice, I honestly don't think we should do this". I love Leticia and I know she trusts you with a lot of things but I don't think you would want to destroy your trust and friendship in this brief moment of pleasure which would yield nothing but a lifetime of pain and regret, Frank said. "It would be out of this world for any man to pass this chance but the parties involved are essential to the peace we need going forward into the unforeseeable future", Frank added. All this while, as Frank was delivering his speech, Rejoice looked at him in a disgusted manner and blasted off when he finished. "Mr. Nobel Peace prize winner, are you done?". "You enjoyed my Jollof without putting up a fight, you enjoyed my drink, you didn't argue, you have seen me almost naked and I know you enjoyed it, now that we must consummate what was started from the beginning, you want to stand me up?", Rejoice asked. "Frank darling, you have to think again because whether this goes down or not, your relationship has already hit the rocks". "Leticia will never trust you again because as it stands now, you, my dear gentleman, find yourself between the deep blue sea and a hard place". "You remember the young lady who walked in here earlier, the minute Leticia gets back, she is going to tell her that you were here. How are you going to defend yourself?" "Frank, you have just lost Leticia to a bowl of rice". Frank had noticed how he had been tricked. He got confused and a number of ideas started going through his mind. "What if I killed you now?",Frank asked as he started moving towards Rejoice. "What did you just say?", a frightened Rejoice asked as she started to move back. "You heard me, witch. "I am going to strangle you and throw you over the balcony, we are seven floors high, you would die instantly and it would be ruled an accident in the worst case scenario". If you are inconsiderate, I might as well be inconsiderate too". Frank added. "Come on Frank, how difficult would it be to make love to me?". "I won't do it!", Frank screamed back. Rose then walked towards Frank and started rubbing her hands all over Frank. "I thought Leticia was like a sister to you". Why do you want to do this to her?",Frank asked. "Obsession, Frank, only obsession can make me do this", Rejoice replied as she started to unbutton his shirt. At the sight of his six packs, she went on her knees and gave them a kiss. "Please don't go there", Frank said as he shivered from the kisses from her cold lips. He held her head to his lower abdomen and with full force, pushed her to the ground. "This madness must stop this minute!", Frank yelled. Rejoice picked herself up from the tiled floor and it seemed she was being filled with rage. "Madness you say?". "I am going to show you what madness really looks like", she added. She unhooked her brassiere, tore part of Frank's shirt and started banging on her door and screaming for help. Frank struggled to hold her back and as a result, tore some parts of her dress. In a matter of minutes, there was a crowd gathered in front of the room anxious to find out what the noise was about. Rejoice opened the door and quickly jumped out. "Rape!, rape!", she shouted. Some of the boys present quickly rushed into the room and bound the bare-chested Frank. "This is a mistake", Frank said as he struggled to break free from their hold. Before Frank could say another word, one of the boys who had 'arrested' him gave him a slap on the face. "What is your excuse?" "The devil as usual right?", the 'slapper' asked. All the burden of proof lay on Frank. He had to explain how he was bare-chested in a different hostel on a female floor. He had to prove what he was doing in a locked room with another woman he knew was not his girlfriend. "Wait, wait", Frank said, "I can prove to you that I was set up". Frank had just remembered that he received a message from Leticia to come and hang out with her because her roommate was not around. He dipped his hands into his pocket to fetch his phone but it seemed that amidst the confusion, someone else had taken possession of his new Samsung galaxy S6 edge phone. "Oh my God!, he exclaimed. "Someone has stolen my phone, Someone has stolen my phone!",Frank yelled. The crowd was not interested in his claims. They only wanted to see justice served a coward who could not get a woman to bed the decent way. He sat in the hostel manager's office and explained several times that he was set up. He told them that he was from a christian home and could not lie. He also recounted how he received a message from his girlfriend. The only alibi he could depend on was Leticia's message but unknown to him, Rejoice had already deleted it. Leticia's phone kept vibrating in her pocket so she decided to take a quick look before the history professor turned from writing on the board. It was a picture of Frank. She downloaded it and it came with the caption, "your boo boo was just caught in an attempt to go down on your roomie. Will update you soon". "It sucks to be you right now"........Will Leticia ever trust Frank's side of the story?..... My name is Edwin Oko Lamptey and this is "a story about a journey" RAT (RANDOM AFRICAN THOUGHT).

PRICELESS DREAMS SIX (6)

From the day Rejoice set her eyes on Frank, her attitude towards Leticia changed. There were times that she even felt that Leticia did not deserve Frank. Rejoice had set her sights on destroying the relationship between Leticia and Frank. This motive of hers made her grow bitter towards Leticia and her every action. "Why am I even doing this?, Rejoice asked herself one day when she was alone in the room. "I think I deserve better than Leticia". "My parents are richer, I am prettier and I believe compared to Leticia, I am more experienced in a lot of things than she is". "Why do I want to destroy their relationship?", she asked herself. "I believe a woman's got to do what a woman's got to do to see herself happy". "Leticia, this is not personal, it is the issue of survival of the sexiest". "Unlike naive Leticia, I know what a man wants and I am willing to give it to him". "I know what to do", Rejoice said.  She wanted to get an opportune moment to put her plans to bed. It took her more time planning her "coup d'état" than she actually studied. She was obsessed with having Frank and did not really mind taking Leticia out of the picture to get to her aim. Rejoice had become so meticulous. She had grown into a tactician overnight. She paid attention to every little detail between Leticia and Frank. She knew their love was so strong and they rarely even argued so she could not use that as motive to get Frank. She set her sights on eavesdropping on their phone conversations. "Why am I so into this guy?, she asked herself. "There are so many cute guys everywhere but why do I want Frank so badly?". "I need help, I have to see a counselor to help me". She decided to visit a counselor after one of her lectures but on her way, she met Frank and struck a conversation with him. "Hi sweet cheeks", she greeted. "It's been a while we met, hope you are holding up perfectly". "My roomie is keeping you like a national treasure so I know you are in safe hands", she added. Frank laughed and responded, Hi Rejoice, I am cool hope you are too". "I would have loved to sit and chat but I am running late for a group discussion so I'd see you pretty soon, take care". Frank said this and sped off. Rejoice, after this encounter had fallen more in love with Frank and changed her mind about seeing the counselor. She took a detour and vowed to get Frank come what may. One day, she found out valuable information about Frank. He was a lover of good food and it happened that 'Jollof' rice was his favorite meal. Then it struck Rejoice that indeed, the saying that 'the way to a man's heart is through his stomach'  would be the perfect  cliché that would win her the man of her dreams. She managed to get her hands on Leticia's phone before it self-locked, went into her WhatsApp chats and sent Frank an invitation to come and eat his favorite food and hangout since Rejoice was not around. She deleted the message and put the phone down. Rejoice knew that Leticia had lectures that morning and was not going to be back for a long time. Her only fears were if Frank was going to take the bait, if he already knew Leticia's schedule for the day and if he was going to call to verify this "August", invitation. None of the above happened. Leticia left for lectures and "chef" Rejoice got to work. She started preparing the dish. She was surprised by the aroma of the dish. In about an hour, she heard a knock on their door. She prayed that it was Frank and true to her prayer, "charming" Frank was standing at the door. She ushered him in and offered him a seat. Frank was told that Leticia had to go for an emergency lecture and left her in charge. She struck a conversation with him instantly. "Leticia told me that your favorite food is Jollof". "I like it, yes, but love is overrated", Frank replied. Soon, the food was ready and Frank was served "handsomely". He ate and requested for more. He was served more and was served mango juice to wash the food down. They sat in silence after the table was cleared. Rejoice stood up and started behaving in a kinky way. For a moment, it appeared that she wanted to give Frank a lap dance. "Rejoice, what are you doing?". Frank asked. "Please stop this because I don't like where this is going", Frank added. "Frank, since the first time I saw you, I have been in love with you ever since". "I know you want this", pulling her skirt upwards "because I saw you look at me the first time you visited". "I can show you more than you saw and satisfy your curiosity if you allow me". Frank was confused but at the same time he liked what he was seeing. "If I allow you do what?", Frank asked. "I thought this was supposed to be a man's job", Frank said. "Don't be naïve Frank, you are smart and I know you can figure it out". "I know you understand me but even if you don't, the bulge I see forming in your trousers does",Rejoice added. She started walking towards Frank. Suddenly, there was a knock on the door. Rejoice opened the door and it was the hostel's best gossip. She had come to borrow an iron. She left with suspicious look on her face. Frank started feeling uncomfortable and wanted to leave. "Rejoice, I think I have overstayed my welcome" I want to take my leave now", he said. "Rejoice had locked the door, sat on his laps and planted a kiss on his lips. "What if Leticia walks in on us like this?", Frank asked and started moving his lips to meet that of Rejoice's.......What is going to happen next? Relax and wait for the next episode.

PRICELESS DREAMS...FIVE (5)

Leticia came running out barefooted when she heard Rose's screams. Leticia knew too well what was happening to her sister. When she got outside, she screamed at Frank "What have you done to my sister?". "Don't you know she is not well?", she continued. "Just give her to me". Frank, who was still in a state of shock as if he had been hit by lightening recovered from what had just ensued and asked, "What are you shouting at me for?", "And how on earth was I supposed to know she had epilepsy?" "What happened?", Leticia asked. Frank fumbled as he tried to explain, "When you went inside, she was just playing and she asked that we played a game". "She asked me to toss her into the air and catch her. Then, after a few tosses, this happened", he added as he pointed to Rose. Leticia then took Rose from him and put her flat on the ground. Rose's scream was so loud that the occupants of the house who knew her condition quickly rushed out. The "prayer warrior', who was part of the people who rushed out quickly stretched out his hand over Rose who was still convulsing and started praying, "Hey, demon, after the knockout punch I dealt you the last time, you are back again?" "Leave now, before you force me to put on my Holy ghost filled spiritual boxing gloves". "Demon, leave now!", he screamed and started praying loudly. Meanwhile, the 'consultant' and Leticia had bound Rose's feet and hands and Frank was ordered to hold her head still to prevent her from causing any injury to it due to the rate of the convulsion. Soon, Rose gained consciousness and she was carried by Leticia into their room. Leticia realized that she flared up and took her anger out on Frank who had no idea about Rose's condition so when she returned, she apologised for yelling at him. "Frankie, I am sorry for shouting earlier, it's not been easy for us since my mother left". "We watch out for each other and ensure that we are all safe because my family is all I've got and they are my priceless treasure". "I don't know what I will do if anything bad happens to any of them", she added. "I totally understand that", Frank cut in. "So, is she undergoing any form of treatment?, Frank asked. "Yes", Leticia replied. "We have taken her to several places where we are told that her condition is rare and that a cure is not yet in sight so the best we can do is to manage the situation by giving her drugs to suppress the attacks from occurring occasionally and we also ensure she doesn't engage in an activity that can trigger an attack". Frank stayed at Leticia's for a while and decided to take his leave when it started getting dark. On his drive back home, he wondered the kind of family he had gotten himself involved with. He became worried and wondered, "what kind of family is this?". "I have only met two of them and they have candidiasis and epilepsy". "I can't wait to meet the rest", he added. "Are these telltale signs of disaster?" Then again, he remembered the love he had developed for Leticia and said to himself. "I believe that love conquers all and so far as we love each other, that is all that matters to me". He continued his journey back home with that thought in his head. When school reopened, Leticia and Frank left for school together. That semester, Leticia had the best of everything. Frank had doubled his provisions intake and shared them with Leticia. He also helped her to treat her candidiasis. Soon Leticia was looking more well-kept and healthier than the previous semester. Frank constantly showered her with love, affection and attention. Frank was a Medical student. He was in his third year at the university. He was very intelligent and it was evident in his exam scores and how many times other students came to him for clarification on topics and subjects that they could not understand when Leticia visited him on campus in his hostel. Leticia's roommates had become aware of Leticia's current glow. She attributed it to Frank and how they loved each other. Her roommates always wanted to meet Frank because Leticia had ascribed him with an almost immortal status. Frank wanted to pay Leticia a surprise visit one Saturday morning so he set off to her hostel. He knocked at her door wearing a big smile on his face. He wondered, "Leticia is going to get the shock of her life when she opens the door". The hostel door creaked open and to Frank's disappointment, it was Leticia's roommate who opened the door and stood at the other side of the door. Quickly, his broad smile wore off and he said, "Hi, please is Leticia here?". The lady who answered the door just stood there and stared at him. "Miss, please can you hear me?". "I am sorry and yes, I can hear you", she said. "Leticia has stepped out to get some stuff", she added. "You must be Frank" she queried. "Yes I am", Frank replied. "I now see why she cannot shut up about you". Frank felt a bit embarrassed with that comment but managed to hide it. "You can wait for her, I am sure she must be on her way back by now". "Oh and I am Rejoice, please,do come in". Frank went inside to wait for Leticia. Rejoice served him with some water and went about tidying up the place. She was wearing a tight yellow mini skirt and the outline of her underpants were visible through the skirt. Frank looked at it the first time and like most boys, his mind was programmed to take constant other looks. Rejoice had noticed his glances so she wanted to make it a little harder for him so she started to tease him. She constantly bent over to pick her books up from the floor. This action almost revealed her underpants and Frank became more curious to know and see what was beyond the flesh he was seeing. He tried to quietly adjust himself in the seat but when he tried, Rejoice would stand straight and he had to look elsewhere. She teased him for a while and before long, the door flung open and Leticia walked in. She couldn't control her joy when she saw Frank. She run to him and hugged him tightly. They kissed and then Leticia formally introduced him to Rejoice. "Rejoice, this is Frank". "I know you have already met him and thanks for keeping him company". "I hope she did not try to seduce you with the clothes she has on", Leticia said looking at Frank. "If only you knew",Frank wondered and said "On the contrary, Rejoice here has been an amazing host". Rejoice shook hands with Frank and the only thought that came to her mind was, "you were saved by the bell but next time, I am going to make you rejoice and again I say, rejoice"......the drama is about to unfold......watch this space.

PRICELESS DREAMS...FOUR (4)

Frank was very tall and masculine so Leticia felt his firm grip on her waist as he carried her to his bedroom. Leticia thought she had already seen the best parts of Frank's house until they got to the pathway leading to the bedrooms. "Is this place a hotel?", she asked. "I have never seen so many nice things all gathered in one place like this before", she added. "How many rooms do you have here?" She was awe-stricken and at a point, she wanted to ask Frank to let her go because she had heard that some people got rich by performing human sacrifices and looking at the paintings, portraits and ceramic tiles which were used to beautify his house, she began to suspect Frank and his family. When they stepped into Frank's room, Leticia asked to be put on the bed. Frank then took off his shirt to reveal his six packs which appears to be like a gold mine for most women. When Frank turned to show off the packs, Leticia wondered, "Oh my God, this boy is fine and he has packs too". He started walking towards  her on the bed and she just could not wait to touch the "glorious" packs. He began to touch her but he was so aggressive and it got Leticia scared. "Frank, take it easy", Leticia said. "My body is not at war with you",she teased him. "Do you want me to go back home with injuries?". "This is not a world cup and I am not a trophy so relax, okay?" The level of Frank's aggravating aggression even got her worried the more. "Is it that you are only into me because of this?", pointing to his hand on her chest area. "Do you really love me genuinely?" "Truth be told, this your behavior is questionable", she added Frank could not be bothered. He kept on fondling her. All of a sudden, something hit Leticia and she started to pull away. "Frank, please stop, please stop". Frank stopped for a while and looked at Leticia. "I know this is just one of your pranks so you can continue for all I care", Frank said. "Frank, this is not a joke, listen to me, please", Leticia begged. "Frank stopped for a while and said, "Tish, what is it now?, he asked breathing heavily. "Can I trust you, Frank?", Leticia asked. "We would not be in this room if you could not", Frank said sarcastically. "Please stop joking and answer me", Leticia said with a worried look on her face. "Leticia, you have an amazing body and any man would kill to have you", Frank started. "I have never been so much in love and I am not saying this because of what is about to happen". "I love you genuinely and with all my heart and there are no strings attached", he added. "Now tell me why you stopped me". "Or did you want to say that you are a virgin?". "Even if you are, I would be nice and gentle so you have nothing to worry about". Leticia looked at Frank and said, "Yes, Frank, I am a virgin and I also think I have an infection". Frank suddenly got alarmed and moved back. "Tell me you are kidding Tish", an alarmed Frank said. "What kind of infection?", he queried. "Is it an S.T.I"?, he asked. "Don't be silly, it is not an S.T.I. "I think it is candidiasis". "Is it that bad?", a disappointed Frank asked. "Yes, it started giving off a bad smell two days ago". I did not know what it was till recently when there was a health talk on radio about it". "I haven't told my dad about it because I am shy". "I think I got it from sharing the washroom with all the girls in my hostel and I also believe there is a woman in our house who I suspect has it, she said, referring to the 'consultant'. "I have to treat it first, then we can make all the love you want", she added. "You should have told me from the beginning, my mum is a midwife and I am sure there are many drugs she could prescribe for it". "Please don't ask her, I would go to the pharmacy for drugs". "But I still think you should have told me earlier", Frank said. "Do you know what can happen to a man when he gets to this point and does not get any action?. "I guess the old saying, "it pays to wait" makes a lot of sense today, Frank said and they both laughed. "Moreover, it seems I was rushing you into an uncomfortable area too". They both dressed up and Leticia asked to be taken home. When they got to Leticia's house, Rose, Leticia's sister, was playing in front of the house. She ran to hug Leticia when she stepped out of the car. She turned to Frank and asked, "Are you my sister's boyfriend?" Frank took her in his arms and said, "Yes please". "Will you marry her?", she asked. He looked at Leticia and said, "Only if she allows me to",  he added. Leticia went into the house to see what was happening and told Frank to watch over Rose so she didn't cross the street. They played while Leticia was away. Rose asked Frank to carry her so that they could play a game she called 'catch and throw',where Frank had to throw her into the air and catch her on her way down. While she was in his arms getting ready to be thrown for the third time, she suddenly screamed and called out Leticia's name. "Leticia, Leticia, it is coming again!" Frank got puzzled and before he could ask what it was she claimed was coming, she started growing stiff and before Frank could figure out what was going on, she started convulsing..... More soon.

PRICELESS DREAMS...THREE (3)

When Leticia entered the house, she had to lock the gates. She stood there for a while and began wondering. "Oh dear God, don't let this be a nine-day wonder", she thought to herself. "Let something positive come out of this friendship". "At least, I am going to lighten my dad's burdens because Frank has promised to help me". "Frank has got all the qualities of the man of my dreams". "He is tall, ambitious, funny, rich and knows how to take care of a lady", she smiled as she wondered. "I think I am in love". She walked silently across the other rooms and tip toed into her room. Her dad was asleep on a chair which was placed very close to the only window of the room in the "living room" part of their single room. She silently undressed and joined her siblings on their mattress. There was very little space to fit but she did not care. She did not even mind waking up with bruises all over her body. She was in love and in that moment, nothing else mattered. Before she finally fell asleep, she had already planned how their wedding was going to look like and to her, she was hopeful of seeing her plans through. Frank and Leticia went on several other dates together and had more fun each time. They had grown so fond of each other because the chemistry between them had skyrocketed. They just could not get enough of each other. All this while, Leticia was always evasive when Frank asked her if he could confidently call her his girlfriend. "Is it that you don't like me?", Frank always asked with a confused look on his face. "Am I doing something wrong?". "Why do you find it difficult to answer this question?, he always added. "Patience, my dear, it is a virtue", was Leticia's answer anytime Frank popped the question. Soon, it was almost time for school to reopen. Frank therefore invited Leticia to his house to meet his parents. On the day of the visit, Leticia dressed smartly, as if she was attending a job interview but she was nervous all the way to Frank's house. She created model questions and answers for herself in case she was asked questions by his parents. She feared that her background would instantly disqualify her if the truth came to light. Many thoughts run through her mind and even at a point, she planned to lie if she was asked about her background. Soon, she found herself standing in front of Frank's gate. She trembled as she pressed the bell. In a few minutes, Frank opened the gate and ushered her in. Immediately she stepped onto the compound, she fired off. "How do I look?", she asked. "Frank, in your heart of hearts, do you think your parents will like me?" "Be sincere with me", she added. Frank looked at her and broke out in hysterical laughter. "My parents?". "Would they like you"?, he added. "You are very funny". "I used them as bait to get you to visit me". "My parents travelled three days ago". "No one is here, just me and our dogs". "I hope you were not practising your acceptance speech". "Frank, don't do that to me again". "I could have suffered a heart attack", Leticia said. Frank teased her the more and ushered her inside. They sat in their beautiful hall across their even more beautiful dining room which was separated by a huge pathway decorated with aquariums, paintings and portraits. They chatted and ate ice cream. Frank went into the kitchen to get another  bowl of ice cream when the one they were eating got finished. When he got back, Leticia was standing. "Frank, I can't go out with you", she said with a very straight face. "Please take me home" she added. "But why, Tish?, Frank asked, feeling let down. "I just can't", Leticia said. Frank did not know what to say. They stood looking at each other in silence for a long while and suddenly, Leticia said, "You see how it feels when you joke with people's feelings? "I had to get back at you for that parent prank you played on me". "Now that we are even... I love you, Frank and I would go anywhere in this world with...". Before she could end her statement, they began kissing and before she could get a hold of herself, Frank had already started to undress her. She begged Frank to stop but her pleas fell on deaf ears. Frank had reached the "point of no return". He was in the lovemaking mood. "Frank, Frank, get a hold of yourself", Leticia begged. "If we have to make love,  you must promise me one thing", Leticia said.  "Promise me that if I allow you do this, you will not do it with anyone else",  she added. "I promise, I promise", Frank responded as he hurriedly kissed her neck and unbuttoned her shirt as if he was under a spell. He was in a hurry to bed her. "Take me to your room then", Leticia commanded. Frank carried her in his arms and hurriedly took her to his room...What is bound to happen is coming soon. Stay tuned.
