*My Muse*❤☺
*_Chapter 1_*
*Natasha🙎🏽’s POV*
“June, I’ve been here for over an hour now and you’re still not here” I said over the phone, and for the third time he said he was on his way.
I was really getting furious😣😣. June is always doing this. I’m getting fed up with this relationship, but if I end it I don’t think I will be able to get someone better than him🙁, and my parents wont be happy about it. They really like June because he is the pastor’s son, and so they feel he is Jesus Christ the second🙄.
June has his good side, but he doesn’t take what I say seriously🤦🏽♀.
I looked at my glass of cocktail🍹 and played with the straw, using it to swirl my drink and then I looked around and everyone was paired up and they all seemed happy.
I looked at my drink once more and finally sipped it. I was so lost in my thoughts that I didn’t know when I actually emptied the cup. It was left with just the ice in it.
“Do you need a refill?” the waiter asked and I was really surprised at how fast she got to my table.
“No I’m good. I’m actually leaving.” I said smiling and I dropped the money on the table, “You can keep the change”, I said and I left.
I got home and met my parents in the living room as usual.
“How was your date”, my mum asked me, smiling.
I didn’t want to make her sad by complaining about June. She really liked him and I didn’t want to spoil him to her.
“It was good🙂”. I said forcing a smile and I went straight to my room.
I dived on my bed and hit it in frustration.
When I relaxed a bit, I took off my heels and clothes and changed into something comfortable.
I took my phone and called my best friend, April. Yeah, my boyfriend is June and my best friend is April😄😄.
My mum actually uses it as a fact to say that June and I are meant to be🤦🏽♀.
April and I have been best friends since we were little kids. Her parents and my parents are also really close. We met at Sunday school. I couldn’t answer a question right and when all the kids laughed about it, she stood up for me and whispered the answer into my ears and since then, I’ve never been able to her out of my life😊😊.
April got married last year and also got a divorce the same year. It really terrified me and I didn’t want to make that kind of mistake.
Everyone sees June and I as the perfect match. We go to church together and are involved in a lot of church activities. People actually see us as their ‘goal’ couple and they come to us for relationship advice.
Sometimes, it sickens me, because it’s not as perfect as they see it to be. I’m actually not always happy in this relationship, but well, I’m hoping for things to get better.
“Hey Tasha, what’s up? How was your date?” she asked.
“I got tired of waiting for him as usual and I left”.
“Oh God, this boy!!!🤦🏽♀ Tash, why won’t you just tell him your mind and leave him, he can’t keep doing this to you”.
“Hmm, I’m sure he had a good reason and…”
“Stop it Tasha. Stop it. Stop covering for him. What haven’t you heard him say before? Traffic, he was held up at work, he had something to do at church, his mum needed him, and his friends had problems? Aren’t you tired of all that?”
“It’s not his fault April, especially when he has something to do at church”, I said, trying to defend him.
“Don’t give me that crap. Even his dad has time for his mum. If he wants to be at church always and you can’t deal with it, leave him. You can’t stand by something that hurts you. Some girls can do that, but that’s not you”.
“I’ve heard you, but I’ll call him and see what happened”.
“Are you crazy? Wait for him to call you himself. No no, no, don’t wait for his call or you going to keep hoping and waiting, and then keep hurting yourself😑. Read something or watch something and sleep. You’ve got work tomorrow morning, you can’t stay awake thinking and waiting for June😑😑”.
“Okay”, I said.
“I’m serious, if you don’t do it, I’ll feel it and come over and you’re going to hear my annoying voice all night”,😂😂😂 she said, laughing.
“Silly girl. I’ve heard you. I’m even sleepy, so I will just take a shower and go to bed”, I said, yawning.
“Alright, goodnight. I’ll talk to you tomorrow”.
“Goodnight April”, I said and I hanged up.
Taking a shower might just take the sleep off my eyes, so I decided to sleep without bathing.
I relaxed my mind by trying not to think about anything but sleep and then I went off.
😴😴😴😴😴
*Oscar’s POV*
I was really excited the whole of today. I’m finally going to ask Mabel out😌😌.
We’ve been dating for three years and I know she’s the right one. I can’t just wait to make her my wife😄😄.
I invited her over to my house for dinner and I prepared her favourite dish.
When we were done eating, I gave her a glass of wine to drink and yeah, the ring was inside it. I just hoped that she wasn’t going to swallow it. But with the way she sips her wine, I was sure that she was going to know that something was inside it.
She took a sip and then widened her eyes. “There’s something inside the drink😳😳!!” she exclaimed.
“I know, just drink up and you’ll know what it is😉”, I said, winking at her.
She looked at me confused and drank it. Then she took the ring from the empty glass.
She looked at it with a surprised look and her happy bubbly face changed.
“No Oscar, I can’t”
😳😳😳😳😳
