Falling in love is easy, losing the love of your life is hard, moving on is worse especially if you loved wholeheartedly and never held back, but to know you were cheated out of having the life you always dreamt about and there was nothing you could do about it was worser than a death sentence. Dekunle had stabbed him in his heart, had taken from him the love of his life, the still in his turbulent storm, the moon that lit up his nights, the very substance to his existence, his Dunni, , the sun beyond his clouds and with that gone the last three months he had walked in darkness, he retreated into a shell, he fell in love with being alone, spent most of the day thinking bout her, them, what they had, shared, what could have been, reminiscing and regrets were his order of each day, he had felt pain before, he had lost his parents, lost his siblings, he had cried, felt the hurt and moved on but this pain was much worse compared to what he had felt then, no one could feel or heal the hurt in his heart.

"Osu keta re Awero, o si wa ekun mu ni gbo gbo gba, o ma je ki fi ejo re sun baa mi, mo ti ni suru fun e to" Dekunle spoke out angrily when he came in to see her brooding yet again, she shot him a look of disdain but he cared very little of that, he wanted a fill of her, he hadn't been intimate with her in the last three months, every time he had made the move she would deny him, she was the first woman to have denied him what he wanted but tonight was tonight he thought, he had explained his plight to his close friend Sanwo and they had came to the conclusion that he had to forcefully have his way with her, "Se bi iyawo re no ni, ara to ba si wun oba ni oba nda" Sanwo had told him.

At night when the beam of the moon snuck through the cracks of her window to light up her room, her tears stained the mat that covered the floor, she curled up beside her bed, staring through each opening, hoping to seek out a way to escape the hurt, he had forcefully had his way with her, "O le se ohun ti o ba fe pe lu ara mi o sugbon ife mi ati okan o le je ti e ti ma fi ku ro ni ori ile yi" she had reminded him as he walked out, now that the feeling of despair had overridden his actions she stood walked towards her window, pushed it open, let out a sigh, her eyes were teary but her heart was bleeding, she caught a whisper from the evening breeze, she whispered back her feelings, the thoughts of what he did, how he felt, how she felt, if he missed her, how she longed to be in his arms again, if he was angry at her, if he still cared for her, if he had moved on, so many ifs but she knew she had no answer to any.

It's been a little over seven months since Daud took over his business and in that period he's done exceedingly well to keep things going but still he was the most relieved when Motoye finally decided to open the door to his hut, he had ran out tears to cry and all the hurt in his heart had been felt but still he could never deny that his heart bled whenever the wind blew her name to his ears, but he was pretty determined to put that past behind him, if only his heart was strong enough to hold the foundation of the walls he had started building in his mind.

It was one of those lazy mornings she had no plans to do anything not like she was required to, his warm breath had woken her up when his lips had landed on her neck, her eyes flung open, she caught sight of his face, beautiful she thought, he planted a soft kiss on the sides of her lips and watched as it blossomed into a smile, she threw her arm around his neck gently tugging it till she could feel each breath that flared from his nostrils on her face, she pouted her lips, inviting him to plant another and he didn't hold back, he took her by the chin, raised her head to meet his, his eyes were hungry for her, and he bit down on her lower lip, she let out a moan, her breath stank when it hit him, he paused thinking whether or not to pull away from her grip but before he could finish sorting out his thoughts she had slipped her hand into his Sokoto, felt him growing harder at every stroke, his heartbeat quickened at each, she could see the delight in his eyes, she could hear it in each moan that escaped his mouth, he buried his face behind his neck, leaving trails of kisses on her neck till his lips came to her ears, he tasted, kissed, licked each before continuing his trail of his kisses down to her toes, he brought each to his mouth, sucked on them and watched her squirm under him, he worked his way backup to her breast, , he felt them, gently squeezed on them she squealed with pleasure at each touch, she drew her eyes shut but she wanted more at this point so she brought his hand down south to feel how much she wanted him, he smiled as his hand made contact with her v****a, it was rigid and soft, wet and warm at the same time, she wanted him, needed him inside of her, each ragged exhale that left her body gave her away, she pushed his lower self to him wanting him to slip a body part of him inside of her, didn't matter what part but her insides needed to be filled, he kept grinning at her trying so hard to balance the excitement and his growing p***s, he rubbed his palm against the insides of her thighs, she moaned out loud, she clenched her teeth and placed a hand over her mouth, he slid his forefinger in her mouth to help her focus on something but instead she kissed it, wrapped her tongue rounds it, slid it in and out of her mouth, , he brought his head downwards then slowly he kissed the walls of her v****a, then he slid his tongue as far as it could go inside it, he went on and on tasting each part before slipping one then two fingers in and out of her, she squealed with pleasure, he increased his pace and the sound was almost deafening but he didn't stop, he couldn't stop, she wouldn't have wanted him to so he just went on and on till she collapsed into a state of euphoria, he smiled lifted his head then trailed kisses back up, he cupped her breast, feeling it stiffness, he brought his lips to her n*****s, he started it all over again. He whispered her name into her ears, but she was more concerned about what his fingers were doing inside of her, he called out to her again and she ignored, again, she could feel something building up inside of her, she wiggled her hips tentatively to meet each thrust of his fingers inside of her, she could feel the soul leaving her body but she didn't care, she was too far gone to stop now.

Awero he yelled out again with a stern voice and as his voice hit it pitch so did she c****x before drowning in a pool o****m. Her eyes flung open, took her a few seconds for her pupils to adjust to bright morning sun that had now spewed across the room, she took in the sight of her surrounding and noticed it was different from where she had been a few minutes before, then he looked up to make out his face, it was the same face she had seen the previous night and the nights before that but not the face she had hoped to see when she awoke, not the face she had seen minutes ago, she got up, looked beyond his glare of disdain, walked past him silently not sparing him more than a glance, strolled to the back of the house, where water had been prepared for her to bathe by one of palace maids.

As the water came crashing against her body, washing away her the stench of o****m on her, the clearer it became to her that she hadn't moved on from 'Motoye, maybe she could never, she felt a band-aid ripped off her heart and the tears streamed down along with water down her face.
