With You By My Side

Finally Met Him

CHAPTER: 07

David called precious and asked her to bring my things as I’d be staying for the weekend

Precious brought my stuffs, I was scared, I really do not want to do this

I am not forcing you to do anything with me Nina, I just want to stay with you, I want to know your strength and your weakness we’ve not been able to talk about anything for sometime now.. what’s your greatest fear? David asked

I don’t have an greatest fear… I don’t think I am scared of anything.

On Saturday morning he took me to his parents, David Is really serious about this whole stuff..

His mother welcomed me giving me the daughter in-law vibe, at some point I felt relaxed..

She asked me if I love her son..

I told her yes..

She liked me, just like that.

POV

I met my mother, told her how I met with David’s family and how welcoming they are, my parents already like David I don’t know what they see in him but they encouraged me to stay even when I complained about not feeling anything for him.. my mother told me to relax

Feelings grow. David is not a bad person, that doesn’t mean you will start having s*x with him.She said

No… I know he’s not a bad person but I feel he’s not my husband

How? Why? What do you mean?

I’ve been dreaming of someone else mum, and it’s not David

You’re not serious Nina, I hope you are not having a spiritual husband now? I hope you’re not making lov In that dream?

Nooo,

You have a future with David, so let it be that way. You will not disgrace this family Nina, the first man in your life is the man you will marry and David has proven that..

No one wants to listen to me again, this was what happend what I told you I had a dream that I died. It almost happened mum, I’ve been dreaming of someone else and you are not taking it serious

I hope you’re not still thinking about that accident? You know how it affects you Nina.. don’t speak about it again..

How can I stop speaking about it? Don’t you know what my greatest fear is? When David asked me I couldn’t tell him anything, I already lied to him

What did he ask you?

He asked me what I fear most.

And…

I told him nothing…

What’s your greatest fear Nina? Tell me I am your mother

Never mind mum.. it’s not important.. I think I have to go now.

Nina, if you’re still thinking about that guy that saved you, he is dead.. have you in anyway heard about him or his family? He is gone.. he did what God asked him to do.. he saved your life. It’s nobody’s fault you didn’t meet him. His mother never wanted us to meet him.

After that accident and after they were transferred no one spoke about them.. he is gone..

How did you know mum?

The doctors couldn’t handle his case, he was taken to the hospitals headquarters, no one heard from them..

Nina, you were young when it happened. It’s been over 10 years and you still haven’t gotten over it? It will affect your relationship with David..

Thanks.. bye mum..

I left

I know what my greatest fear and I know what I’ve been wishing for.

I drove straight to David’s house..

I wasn’t myself, when I saw him he knew something was wrong.. he tried to talk but I just ignored him… I opened his fridge and started drinking, what happened years ago was reflecting, this time it didn’t stop,

Nina, stop, what’s wrong with you? Why are you drinking?

Nothing, I’m fine!

And why are you crying? You’re getting yourself drunk

I’m having a headache..

I dropped the glass of wine, and went to bed

David who couldn’t control himself started touching me..

He did, he kissed me… my eyes were turning me as I never knew what I was doing..

We ended up having s*x twice..

As painful as it is, David didn’t stop going in..

It was like we planned it

Waking up in the morning, I was no longer drunk, then I realized I’ve lost my virginity to David

David! I called him

Yeah!

What happened last night? How? Why?

You don’t remember anything?

I don’t? What happened?

Nina, I am sorry, you were drunk and it happened

I was drunk and you took advantage of me?

I didn’t take advantage of you. You also wanted it

How can I want something when I am drunk David?

…. Stop staring at me.

Nina, I love you that’s all that matters right now.. I know I promised not to violate you but I couldn’t help it, Nina you’re my wife. I am sorry.

I couldn’t get mad, it was my fault, I allowed my emotions take over me which led me to drink and get drunk.

Isn’t this what my parents told me not to do?? I don’t even remember how it feels..

That was how I began to have s*x with David, And yeah, my parents wasn’t aware.. I only told precious

I decided to learn how to love David.. it was going well and there was no issue between us..

Four months later I was invited to a party, I told precious and we decided to look our best..

David was not around so it was an opportunity to be free..

We got there, it was a big party.. everywhere was bubbling, the music was soo loud that you could barely hear someone talk..

I greeted people that I know.. David kept calling to know what’s up. His calls were pissing me off.. so I turned off my phone

Someone was watching me closely, I didn’t pay attention to anyone, just precious

Precious I need to use the restroom . I said to her..

I went to the restroom, I stared at the mirror there for a while reflecting on how precious pushed me .. and how he ran to me and pushed me, I took a deep breathe and the next thing I heard was

“ hello”

I turned and saw someone on a wheelchair

Oh! Hi.

Sorry to disturb you, I have a request please!

Okay!

Can you help me up a little? I want to adjust this stuff, and I also want you to push me back to where I am sitted, my hands are tired…I’ll direct you

Without hesitation I accepted to help him, he adjusted his wheelchair, he smiled at me and said “ Thank you”

I turned around, and started to push him back to where he was directing me too.

We were going when he started talking

“ my brother just left to get something, soo don’t be offended “ I hate to bother people..

I’m not offended, you look good though”

Thanks.. I love your eyes

I smiled and said “ thank you “

I am Dave

Oh! Dave..

I am Nina..

Can I appreciate you for this next time? Maybe tomorrow?

Okay! But you don’t have to bother yourself

I insist.

Okay.. we exchanged numbers and I dropped him off..

Oh! That’s my brother Henry.

Thank you for helping him. Henry said..

Dave, do you need anything? Henry asked

I’m fine.

I stood there for few seconds staring at them.

Something just whispered to me.. “That’s your husband “. Another voice asked , which. And it answered. “ The one on the wheelchair “

Nina, is everything alright? Dave asked

Oh! Yeah, I forgot I was supposed to leave. See you tomorrow

You can sit with us, or are you with someone?Henry asked

Yes, I mean no,, sorry yes, my girlfriend

You’re confused.. Dave said and laughed

Go call her.. he added

I quickly went to call precious.
