I was wondering how to approach my mum. I had no idea as to what to tell her when I got home. The time was 7:00pm and it was past my curfew. I didn't know how time could fly. It seemed we were in the house for just some few minutes but the clock told another story. We had spent over 9 hours together and I didn't even notice that the time was far spent. I told Junior I had to go home. He was sad when he was dressing up. He entered into a different room and came will a bundle of Gh10 cedis note. I couldn't accept the money as I felt he was kind of paying me for making love to him. I rejected politely but he was as stubborn as a billy goat. We agreed for him to keep it for me as I couldn't be seen with such huge amount of money. My main worry was how to convince my mum on my where abouts.
It was 8:00pm when Junior dropped me at the entrance of my house. He told me he would call me when he got home. We exchanged our affections towards each other and parted ways. I was left to face the angry lioness. I could feel her roar from a distant as I approached the house. I had actually regretted staying out that late. With fear and trembling, I entered the house and greeted my mother who refused to respond. I didn't know whether to explain myself or to move on and enter my room. I sat on a chair beside her and she immediately got up and entered the kitchen. She brought my food from the kitchen. She had cooked my favorite meal which was Fufu and light soup. I couldn't explain myself. My remorse grew greater and greater. I opened my mouth to say I am sorry and before I knew what was happening tears started flowing down my cheek like a stream of river flowing through its channels.
As outraged as my mother was, she didn't talk about my behaviour and told me not to do that again. She said; "Lizy,you know you are my one and only daughter. Ever since the demise of your father,I have taken you as my husband. Don't follow bad companies and boys. They will take you and turn you into a laughing stock. " One thing she didn't know was that I was already following my first guy. I consented to the advice and went to sleep taking a bite of the food. I was hoping to hear from Junior who had promised to call me when he got home. It was 10:00pm and I was still struggling to catch my sleep. I wanted to hear that thunderous subtle sweet voice of Junior. I couldnt hold myself for long. I dialled Junior's number but he wouldnt pick the call. It was 1:00 pm already and I was still trying to reach him. His thoughts kept me emotional and tears fell on my soft cheeks.

The cocks crew and startled me from my sleep. I had fallen asleep as I drown on my tears. The first thought that run throngh my head was to check my phone to call Junior. This time the phone was off. I had to put him aside and do my daily house chores. It wasn't easy. I had actually found what I wanted; a man that I am willing to live and die for. My thoughts about love being something sweet and ecstatic had just died off. Three days into a relationship has redefined it for me. All my expectation seems to be a fantasy and reality was unveiling before me. I have come to a cross road.
A day had passed and I still had not heard from Junior. His number wasn't going through. Now, I was super afraid and worried about him . I had to go to his house which I had forgotten the route to. I started searching for the house early in the morning. I retraced the route to the house but got lost on the way. l must be stupid to have forgotten the road that leads to the house of someone I so cherish, I exclaimed. How am i going to get in touch with him. I know no friends, no relatives. Actually, he seems to be a ghost with nobody knowing his whereabouts. Love have blinded me and made me behave like a baby. It got to me too much. I started gnashing my teeth as i walked back home. I couldn't afford being seen crying on the road.
As i got home, i entered into my room without greeting my mum. She was by the fire cooking the evening meal. She shouted to get my attention. My response was but a lie that, i wasn't feeling well. My head had suddenly began to pain me. Love actually makes lying easy. Doesn't it? I slept without eating that evening. I was hoping to hear from him the following day. My hatred for my stupidity grew. I started having funny feelings of forfeiting life and freeing myself through death. The taught couldn't mature as i drew all my rage into hating guys.
Its been 5 years since i lost contact with Junior and i have completed the University. To becontinued......
