Chapter Three:
“Okay Jupiter, we'll accompany you back to Vilaroa.” This statement alone from Britney made me the happiest woman alive.
Life has always been good but more interesting when we're elevated,so this was not going to be an ordinary one of a journey,it was also going to be a part of making a perfect love story. Since I have known when two people match and are confident enough to say that Jupiter was Britney's soul mate, only that it had to be given time for nature to do its things. I was more than glad that fate was taking it towards the right direction.
Jupiter had grown so big that he could afford to pay for a mansion in the heart of Vilaroa and when I asked him he said that his main inspiration was Britney,she gave him the reason to always work hard and I was always his confidant that it would come a day when the two would end up together.
“Britney has just been through a heartbreak brother, but this doesn't mean that she has stopped loving. All she needs is a little bit of time and she'll eventually be yours.” I would assure him.
“What do you think Fridah Malia, should I just man up and confess my feelings for her?”
“Oh No!! Not yet please.” I told him,
“There's time for everything and this is not just the correct timing.”
I never said not only because I wanted him to express his bravery and passion at the moment,but also because he was to listen to his heart,it never lies and when you listen to your heart you'll surely do certain marvelous deeds.
Days kept on going so fast and besides him waking up every morning for work, Jupiter never ran out of cups and we became his utmost responsibility.
Unlike me, Britney was never the type to stay at home and spoon fed so she let her stubbornness rule her,her personality was always an interesting one since it definitely had to yield something by the end of the day.
This one early argument I was woken up by a very heating argument that nobody realized that it was my birthday, all I could hear was Britney demanding to know Jupiter's work status,
“It's now almost a month Jupiter,and all you do is to leave us and come back with a lot of gifts yet you've never told us what you do, what are you really Mister?”
She asked and this was not the first time he was evading the question,
“Musa! Let's go.” He would command him, leaving Britney so coldly giving a sigh that he was never going to reveal his intentions any time soon.
That was when Britney took her only time and what a tricky world that when life poses a challenge,despair seems to rule.
So Britney went ahead and did the UNTHINKABLE.
Later on he would come from work just like the normal days,and the first question that would pop out from his mind was,
“Where's Britney?” And Jupiter appeared like he loved her so much that he was never going to hide her from anything. He understood that telling lies to the people we love increases the chances of ‘goodbyes’ so he was not ready and would never be ready to lose her. He had to tell her what his profession was,the only problem was that Britney was nowhere to be seen.
The last time when I heard from him she had gone back searching for this one individual who broke her heart.
“Where's Britney?”
I don't know if Jupiter was ready for the truth.
“She has just left Jupiter,I believe that she will be back any time soon from now.” I assured him and this never helped. So I taped him and told him to join me for a conversation,
“She spoke with her ex and they agreed for a meet up, however you have nothing to worry about Jupiter. An adult mind is like a calamity that you can't control,so sometimes you just sit and hope for the best, but I know that is what will happen, since Britney is a very good person.” I managed to convince him.
“I know that Fridah,I also know that she is a bright one too. That's among the reasons as to why I love her.” He went ahead and thanked me for those words.
And then later in the day I would cook some meal and spare some for Britney,
Very early in the morning,we were welcomed by a familiar sound and the manner in which we all overslept still baffles me to this very day.
“Hello Fridah Malia.” He said,
“You must be Jupiter, I've heard so much about you!!”
It was Paul!!!
This surprise was never taken well by that one person who loved Britney.
Was a well composed man, however I had never seen him this agitated.
The man angrily went ahead and grabbed a rich man's coat and said,
“After breaking her heart, what do you still want again!?”
Paul was never threatened before, but this time even the still wind would appreciate his fear.
“Leave him alone!!” Britney came to his rescue.
“Have you been okay dear, you just left and then the next time you come in,this arrogant human being becomes the first to arrive?”
He definitely had more than enough questions to ask.
