FORBIDDEN LOVE 5

Continuation……

I fidgeted when he looked back at me because I was a bit scared
and it just felt awkward. He moved forward towards me and finally
spoke up.
Stammering and squeezing his face in disgust he said, “They…they
share th…that at my work pla…place so that we could give all
these people who need it, you know. Just to raise awareness of
STDs. They teach you about it right”
I nodded and said, “okay” after swallowing the remaining saliva that
was left in my mouth until it was as dry as a dead dingo’s donger.
Something about his statement didn’t sound okay, but I didn’t
object. I immediately opened the last drawer and saw the blue paper
he had asked me to grab. Standing up, I said “I found the paper” in
order to break the silence even though he knew that already.
Uncle Sam’s POV
“How could I have been so stupid to send her to those drawers,” I
said in my mind when Meso handed me the paper I had asked her
to fetch for me. I was so sure Meso would look at me as a
different person and always suspect everything I did. I was so
angry and upset at my stupidity, but I made sure I maintained
myself in order for Meso not to suspect anything. We later left the
bedroom for the car. I was to take Meso home because it was
already getting late. I didn’t want her parents to start calling and
getting worried because we left since 12:00pm in the afternoon.
“Meso, I hope you had a nice time,” I said when we got into the
car. She looked so beautiful and I couldn’t just resist staring at her.
Puberty was really in her favour because everyday she kept looking
more beautiful. I wanted to have her in my arms and my arms alone.
My heart ached every time I realized she was just my niece. Am I
wrong for thinking this way? I asked myself that
question everyday.
“Yes!!! it was fun hanging out with you Sam. I really enjoyed
myself.” Meso replied with enthusiasm bringing me back to life from
my deep thoughts.
“I’m glad you did” I said smiling and winked at her. I drove off and
in less than an hour, we were at the house. I could hear Esther
already jumping and screaming in happiness.
“Uncle Sam!!! Uncle Sam!!!” she yelled my name as she ran to hug me.
“My baby, how are you?” I said to her.
“I’m fine uncle Sam, I missed you guys. You left me all alone in
the house.” she said.
I comforted her and gave her what Meso picked for her at the
mall. She was excited when she saw her gift and that gave me
peace of mind. At least, she wouldn’t have to whine again. I kissed
their foreheads and bade them goodbye before leaving for my house.
Meso’s POV
I sighed as I jumped into the bath to take a shower. I had a lot
of fun with uncle Sam. I couldn’t believe the day had finally come
to an end. I closed my eyes and allowed myself feel the warmth of
the shower drops that fell on my skin. I was really enjoying the
shower until I remembered senior Daniel called earlier and told me to
call back when I was free. In less than twenty minutes, I was out
of the shower. I wore my nighties and cuddled up in bed. Picking up
my phone, I realized I had a missed call and it was from senior
Daniel. I didn’t know he called because I didn’t even hear it ring,
but I decided to call back so I dialled his number and waited
patiently for him to pick up. It was already past nine in the
evening, I wasn’t sure if it was okay to call back at that time but
I continued anyway since he called first. When he picked up the
call, he asked how I was, sounding so excited. I told him I was
fine and apologized for missing his call. He said it was okay and we
kept on talking about random things. We talked for about thirty
minutes until senior Daniel asked If I had a boyfriend. I squeezed
my face in confusion and tried to understand why everyone had to
ask me if I have a boyfriend. I was about to reply when I heard
my mum call my name.
“Please senior, can we talk tomorrow? My mum is calling me.” I said
standing up from the bed.
He said,”okay” and I ended the call before going to answer my mum.
When I got to the sitting room where my mum sat, I walked up to
her and greeted her before asking her why I was called. She said
she just wanted to see me since I went for an outing. She asked
about my outing and if I had a good time or not. She was fond of
doing that everytime we were taken out for an excursion by my
school or outing by uncle Sam, so it was normal when she asked. I
told her about everything we did, from the lunch we had in sweet
sensation to the movie we watched at the theatre, but I didn’t
mention what I had seen in uncle Sam’s second drawer. I wasn’t
really close to my mum, but I shared a few things with her. After
a few minutes, I hugged her goodnight and went to bed.
It was a very beautiful day when I woke up the next day, it was
a Saturday. Although Saturday was one of my dreadful days
because that day was a thorough cleaning day. It took all our might
and strength to fully clean the house. My parents were always so
particular about cleaning, we would be asked to clean from the
corners of the walls in the house to the part that demarcates the
house from the street. When I said my morning prayers, as usual, I
went straight to my phone to see if I had any message. I didn’t get
any so I dropped the phone on the table in my room. Esther was
still sleeping beside my bed. We had two beds in the room so I
arranged mine and left Esther still sleeping. My mum made me do
more chores since I got to secondary school. She said I was growing
up and I needed to learn how to do the chores even when Frank
doesn’t do it so I swept the whole house both inside and outside
the house. Frank’s job was to take the bins out, watch the gutters
right outside the house and wash the cars. After a few hours of
working and sweating, we rounded up and went to take a shower.
Esther had already taken her bath so later on, I joined her on the
dining table to have brunch because on Saturdays, none of us barely
had breakfast due to the cleaning. Later that same day, I was
struck with menstrual pain. I rolled and rolled on the bed with my
sister petting me and saying sorry. I cried because I was in so much
pain. My mum just gave me a cup of unsweetened tea and some
drugs. I even got calls from senior Daniel, uncle Sam and Anabelle,
one of my friends but I didn’t pick any of their calls because I
was in so much pain. I couldn’t understand why girls/women had
to go through such pain. I slept off after a few hours even with
the excruciating pain. I made sure I forced myself to sleep because
I just couldn’t take it anymore. I woke up after a while and felt
much better so I was able to reply my missed calls and messages.
While chatting with senior Daniel, he asked me to answer the
question he had asked earlier and so I told him I didn’t have a
boyfriend. He asked if he could call me but I told him I wasn’t in
the mood to talk so he didn’t call. Instead, he said he would talk to
me the next day and ended his message with, “Goodnight, my baby.”
