How does love feel like? II

To all those who love and care about me genuinely. To all those who look out for me and check up on me. To all those who dey ma back and are always there for me. To all those who are always ready to listen and don't judge me. To all those who know how to put a smile on my face, regardless of the mood I'm in. To all those who know exactly what to say and are always real with me. To all those who don't hide the truth from me and are bold to tell me to my face. To all those who broke my heart. To all those who hurt me. To all those who did me more good than evil . To all those who sort me out whenever broke. To all those who believe in me. To all those who promised and failed me. To all those who assured me and left me hanging. To all those who held up their end of the bargain. To all those who have no idea how much they helped me. To all those who faked feelings for me. To all those who opened up to me. To all those who crushed on me. To all those who trusted me with something. To all those who haven't given up on me. To all those who forgave me. To all those who lied to me. To all those who accept me for me. To all those who criticize and correct me. To all those who respect and do what I like. To all those who cherish and are loyal to me. To all those who spoil me. To all those who never betrayed me. To all those who wish me well. I'm grateful.

How does love feel like?

Pearl closed her eyes for a minute and she fell in a trance. Her mind was cast back to 31st night, when she was praying to God for a heaven sent boyfriend. She had enjoyed single life, now she was thinking of settling down. It wasn't as if she didn't have options to choose from, she just wanted someone out of her circle. She was vigilant during that period so she wouldn't miss anything but her expectations weren't met. Then she met Kevin again. She remembered how she could miss Kevin and wished he was around her most of the time. There was a lot of special moments with him, cause they went a long way back to 1st year in the university. And thereafter they had a connection. Their 1st encounter was exceptional, they met on a bus home from school during vacation. They didn't really communicate halfway through the journey. It was after a funny scene in the movie they were all watching in the bus. They began chatting as and when, until they got to their destination, exchanged numbers and that was how it all began. There was a movie premier of a particular movie they both loved and decided to go watch, and that was their 1st time meeting up. They could chat on phone non-stop and all that. School resumed and they saw more and more of each other. He visited her often. Seemed they spent most of their time with each other. It really felt special, but undoubtedly they had their rough times. Suddenly, she opened her eyes and fell out of the trance. Kevin was now out of her life. They had broken up, cause she didn't feel she was happy. It was a risk she took, with no regrets though. She had learnt to live without him anyway, cause it got to a time he wasn't really there when she needed him. She's learnt a lot from Kevin, and she was grateful she met him. Now it was time for her to move on. Moving on comes with it's own stress as well, she thought and laughed.

Her Message Got HimThinking

Kwesi woke up to Esi's message notification popup on his phone. He was a bit skeptical if he should go ahead and open it, cause its been 8months since she left him a message or initiated a conversation. This message could decide his mood for the day. All he saw was, Kwesi, on his notification. He was yet to read whatelse followed. The fact is, he had a record of her sending him bad news whenever she typed his name first, before her message. He didn't like this feeling at all. "What if its something urgent, that is why she sent it overnight, he said. Maybe she is something she couldn't master courage to tell me during the day." I guess this was his way of convincing himself to read the message.
