My ambition for money

My ambition for money

Episode 3

I'm going to Rock. As usual, we made love. He really knows how to make me happy, unlike Luke who does not understand anything, except to repeat \ "I love you \" as if it had the slightest meaning. I regret having given in to his advances. I blame myself for that. What took me, really?

You are the best rock.

I know, that's why you deceive your boyfriend with me. I know how to make you feel woman.

__YS, I admit. Now I have to come back before my mother begins by worrying about me.

__Who, I can't take you away, I have things to do.

__YE, that's it, you always have something to do. Don't bother. I know the way.

__Tow well, take care of yourself.

__Pareil to you.

I leave at Rock and I come back home.

__D'Or where are you coming at this hour? asks for my mother.

But why this question? However, I asked him for permission before leaving the house. Now why is she worried as much for me?

__ Mom, what is this question again? Didn't I ask you permission before leaving the house? It was yourself who allowed me to go to see Luc.

__ Yes, except that you lied to me. Tell me where you come from, Safilia.

__ But how can you ask me that? I was at Luke all this time. If you want, you can call him, he will confirm that we were together.

__ Do you want to make me believe that you just left with Luke's?

__ Yes yes, why lie to you.

__ Luke, please.

My mother pronounces the name of Luke and I am confused. But what is all that? How Luke did to find himself again here when he was off to a good start before me, I took my other path. You see why I hate this guy? He does things that I don't like at all.

__ Wait a little, Luke, do you watch me?

__ not at all, my beautiful. I noticed that you left your wallet and also the money I gave you. So I decided to bring them back to you. This is where your mother told me that you were not yet back. I am lost since I trapped you to the door. Normally, you should have already been at home. What happened, Safilia? We are all worried about you.

__ It's good, I'm fine, I was with Lalia and her sister's house.

__ Are you sure, Safilia? Asks for my mother.

__ Yes mom, why lie to you? If you two, you don't believe me, call Ruth or his sister. I can't lie to you.

__ It's good my darling, I believe you. I know you can't lie to me. Said Luke, kissing me before leaving.

__ Mom, I have to leave now, my heart is quiet now that she is back. He said before turning our back on us.

After the departure of Luke, my mother approaches me and pulls my ears.

__ You come with me, silly. Do you really think I'm going to swallow your lies as easily like Luke? No madam, because I don't believe you. Tell me now where you had been all this time?

__ Ouch mom, but let me go, you hurt me. However, I told you everything. What more do you want? I was with my friends.

__ Okay, I'm going to conduct my own surveys and if you have lied to me, believe me, you will regret it. In recent days, you have really changed and I don't recognize you anymore, but don't worry, I know how to settle you.

__ Maman does not exaggerate, besides I am tired. I go to my room.

__ know that we will talk about it.

__ As you want mom.

I quickly went to bed so as not to attract my mother's anger to me.

A few months later.

It's already back to school. I existed so much at the idea that soon I will leave this village which saw me grew up. Mother did everything to pay for my registration,

I am now ready to return to the University of Abomey-Calavi and that is thanks to my mother and Luke. This last helped me a lot financially.

Before leaving, my mother gave me enough advice. You know how our African mom behaves if their children want to travel, right? So

__ My daughter listen to me, I have already called your uncle. As soon as you go down to Calavi Kpota, he will pick you up. Above all, include well. You have to respect your uncle and his wife. Avoid badly company.

__ I understood mom

__ You must also take your studies seriously and know that you have no one and that your family counts on you. It is you who will guide your little sister.

__ I know mom don't worry, I'm going to behave very well.

__ Above all, don't forget that you already have a boyfriend here in the village. I don't want to hear anything afterwards, I hope you listen to me well?

__ Yes mom, I noted well and I give you my word. You just have to trust me mom.

__ Agree my daughter, I give you my blessing. Never forget to pray before sleeping. It's really important. I will also pray for you every day and every night. You will realize your most expensive dream in the name of Jesus.

__ Amen Maman.

My mother prayed for me for a few minutes before I leave the house. Luke helped me carry my luggage to the station.

__ My love, as soon as you are at the destination, do not forget to warn us. Said Luc, giving me a kiss on the cheek.

__ Okay, I will.

__ I love you very much and I will wait for you for a long time as you want. I just want you to realize your dream before you are married.

__ I know and I thank you very much for your support.

__ I do it with all my heart, take care of you and don't forget that I love you.

__ I also love you my love.

My sister Kelly also wished me good luck. Mother again prayed for me before I started.

I can do my parents, I see my mother who wipes her tears and it pinches my heart.

Mom I promise you, I will do everything to get us out of poverty. I will try your tears very soon.

A few hours later, here I am in the big city of Cotonou. Everything is perfect. I can't even describe everything my eyes currently see. It's really beautiful. I call my uncle who came to pick me up a few minutes later.

We arrive at home and I was well received by his wife. She is so nice and I think I already love her.

On the start of the school year, my uncle led me to university. The same day, I got friends with a girl. Her name is Trisia. We are about the same size and we make the same sector. I really need someone who will orient me, suddenly, I did not think before accepting his friendship. We exchanged our phone numbers. Whenever I come home, she calls me to get up with me. Trisia is a good person to what I think.

I often call my mother so that she does not worry about me. I'm doing very well. Regarding Luke, I no longer answer his calls. I had already promised it to you, right? As soon as I set foot in university, I am looking for someone from my rank who can replace this country and that's what I intend to do. I am a very beautiful woman and the men will quickly fall in love with me. I promise you.

******** Luc

Safilia has left this village for days now and since then it has not answered my calls. I wonder why she behaves like this? What could I have done to deserve this ignorance coming from him?

I'm tired of waiting for her to answer my calls. I'm going on this part to see his mother. Maybe she will know what happened. I am very worried about her.

__ Mom I go out

__ where are you going to my son?

__ I go to my girlfriend's mother, she has still not called me and she also refuses to answer my calls. I just wanted to make sure she is fine.

__ And you think she did it on purpose?

__ I do not know anything that is why I decide to go see her mother. Everything has an explanation.

__ Okay my son, but don't worry, everything will be fine.

__ I really hope it mom.

I leave the house and go to my future mother -in -law. She is about to leave the house when I arrived.

__ Good evening mom, sorry to bother you.

__ No, you don't mind my son, how are you?

__ Are you fine and with you mom?

__ Is that my son too, say, do you have the news of your darling?

__ That's why I'm there mom. It's been days since I call Safilia but she never answers my calls. I just wanted to know how it is. Have you been able to speak with her?

__ Yes my son, wait, I'll call him for you. It may be that she was busy when you called. She is not like that and you know. Ou it is perhaps the study that occupies all her time.

__ Yes I know mom, that's why I came to see you. Maybe she is busy as you just said.

__ Yes my son.

She takes out her phone and calls her daughter. Right after a few ringtones, she replied.

Ouff

She spoke for a long time with her mother on the phone. She looks very happy when I see. The smile that takes shape on her mother's lips confirmed everything.

__ My daughter, I am very proud of you. I want to pass you someone who is very worried about you.

I take the phone, smiling stupidly. I can hear the beats of my heart when I heard his magnificent voice.

__ Hello my love, how are you?

She does not respond, by the way, I no longer hear her voice. I continue to say his name but I don't hear anything at all.

__ Hello, Safilia, Hello, Hello Are you my darling there?

And then she hung up.
