BEYOND LOVE
EPISODE 6
As I stood under the shower which have left running for about 4 minutes I keep reminiscing about what jay said. What if she is really dead. Would I have be able to survive. I know am the cause of this. Would I be able to live with this quilt all my life? Does the way she appeared in the dream really means she is dead? No no , I must push such thought of my mind. I can’t be pessimistic about this. The first thing I have to find out is the meaning of the word inscribed on the golden crown. I believe she is passing a message to me.
Ola, I heard Jay called. Won’t you come out or you wanna sleep there? It almost 30 minutes since you went in there. I am coming. Just give a minute and I will be out. I answered him. I walked out of the bathroom with the towel in my hand trying to dry my hair.
I moved to the mirror but I can’t believe what am seeing. Gosh! It just only about a month since Maya disappearance but have become a shadow of my former self. Have already lose weight due to the fact that have not eat a nutritious food couple with the fact that I have not work out since then.
Have seen what Enforzarse means. Jay declared as he raised up his head from his phone. What does it means? I asked eagerly. It means “strive” in Spanish. He replied. As in strive to acquire something, like struggling? I asked surprisingly. I didn’t expect it to be just an ordinary word but a word that carries much weight. Something that could perhaps give me lead on her situation. Not just Spanish word.
Yes, that what it means. Jay answered. Do you in any think that this world has anything to do with her situation. I asked not knowing what to make out if the word. I think it in two ways. He answered.
Firstly, she may be dead and trying to pass a message to you to move on. She is telling you to strive to move on with your life and leave the past behind. You should strive to be a better person than before, meet new people and live a good life. Why do you always attribute death with her? I asked as I look into his eyes to intimidate him. Although I trust him but attributing death with her in every situation makes me feels like he got skeleton in his cupboard.
It not like am saying such to make you forget her, feel guilty or whatever you might think but it just the reality you have no ability to stomach. He defended.
Tell me the second option. I demanded. It possible she is still alive. He said. I know you don’t believe in superstition but they say that when two people genuinely love each other, they can communicate via dream. She might be passing a message to you that she misses you and so you should strive harder to make her come back. He concluded.
I guess you are saying this to make me feel better due to what you said earlier. I asked not believing what he just said. No, am just trying to get my opinion across. He said.
The first option you mentioned is completely out of it. I can believe she is dead and won’t allow anybody even you to convince me in accepting that. I told him. Suit yourself. He catechized.
The second option of me striving me more. What do you think I can do other than what have done before. I can’t think of any other thing to do. Have meet the police, hired a private investigator and even give money in charity just for her to come back.
Should I hire another private investigator or go back to the police who have bashed; or even increase my charities? What do you think? Tell me your idea. I will do anything to get her back. I lamented shaking him vigorously with tears swelling up in my eyes. He shook my hands aside and stood up. I look at him expecting him to give an answer but he kept mute.
He stood up and started pacing the room up and down. An which he usually does when ever he is in a deep thought. This continued for nearly 5 minutes before he finally speaked up.
Have think about many options but I can't just settle for one. They are all risky and not one I will Wants us to explore. He said.
You don't have to worry about the riskee involved. Just tell me that idea of yours and I will gladly carry it out. In as much as my Maya will be back. I said
Guy, why are you like this. Do you think am not painter about her disapperance? Do you think I won't also try the possible best to find her knowing how much she means to you? Why do you think I wants to exclude myself because of the risk? You have not even know the idea I want to suggest before arriving at a conclusion. He said accussingly.
I am sorry if I offend you with my outburst but you of all people should understand my plight. I pleaded. No quam. He said.
So, what your idea? I questions. I am trying to analysis it loophole and success probability. He said . I am thinking, you should announced a bounty for who ever is able to help us find her. He said.
With this, am sure many will embark on the quest to find her. People are really in need of money and will do anything to get it even at the risk of thier live.
What the probability of them finding her. I asked. I don't know. He answered. If the kidnappers were interested in money, they would have contacted us. I said.
What if some of them is interested in money but had to subject to the will of others. He said.
