Early in the morning, John woke up as usual. His mind was preoccupied with the previous occurrence. His love affair had been shaken. As a wise boyfriend, he came up with an idea that would bring them back together.
It was difficult as he fumbled to explain where he had spent the previous night. How could he explain that he was at an overnight party? This time, he was tongue-tied, contrary to his often sweet, convincing words.
What gave him courage was the misbehaved Sasha. In a real sense, the fiancé had committed more serious crimes than he had. Cheating with another man, worse on his bed!
But looking at this matter, it needed careful handling. It was very sensitive, threatening to break their bond if not we'll handled properly.
John was not ready to lose her. She was the most valuable thing he treasured.
"Love, why have you chosen to betray me? Have you ever lacked anything in life?" John began a conversation while on a couch. Sasha sat on the opposite side, looking at each other.
Sasha felt guilty on her face. She was not only tongue-tied but also felt like crying.
"Don't cry, my love, come and sit close to me," John tried to comfort the fiancée. Covering her face with a handkerchief, she moved closer and sat on her boyfriend's thighs.
John, babysitting her lover, gave her a chest to kneel on. She cried profusely on his lover's chest, as the boyfriend tried to calm her down. Was the cry really genuine? No, she was just pretending, as she was a perennial cheetah for quite some time, and John knew it well.
John found it difficult to discuss and solve the love issues at that particular time. John tried to postpone that discussion to a later date to solve it. He thought not enticing her first before engaging in such a sensitive matter.
John suggested a date when they could go and refresh themselves. That was the greatest news in Sasha's ears. A date out! She could just imagine how it could be the best experience, utilizing the most executive recreation facilities. For sure, she had high expectations about that particular vacation.
John had to request out-of-duty permission. Being a senior official, he was sure of permission from work. Sasha took it seriously. She quickly made the necessary preparations for the event. For the first time, Sasha took warm water to the bathroom for her boyfriend to shower, an act she had never done before. She prepared the best clothes for him, well-ironed and folded.
By the time John was done preparing, he had his breakfast ready and served. For sure, their love that particular day had grown fonder.
Sasha quickly rushed to the bathroom and took a refreshing shower that left her cool. She chose a dress that matched her boyfriend. She took a lot of time dressing up. She applied the best makeup, applied the best scented lotion, and adjusted her iconic plaited hairstyle.
John had to find out why she was taking too long to prepare. He made a step into the bedroom only to find Sasha busy decorating herself. She had to carefully apply makeup on her face, often confirming makeup effectiveness in a mirror placed firmly on the wall. The lips were decorated to look silvery. The blue earrings were well-fitted and matched with her blue dress.
The lady looked more beautiful than earlier.
The two couples left for a date. They were to spend the better part of their date at the Farm View Hotel. The hotel was well known for its executive services. It also possessed the best facilities.
John called the motorcyclist, who took them to the main road. They then boarded a bus to the Bumala business district and left, each of them maintaining a smiling face. Truly, it was the best moment for the lovers. T
hey arrived at the destination and alighted from the bus in style. John could not hesitate to hold his girlfriend's hand. They walked slowly till they arrived at the Farm View Hotel's main gate.
The gate was well-organized with well-trimmed flowers. On the right was a reception. They greeted the gate guards and went directly to the reception. They booked a room, which clearly meant spending the night in that place. Sasha enjoyed every moment in that particular place. She maintained a smiling face and an expression of joy.
At the restaurant, they had to have breakfast before they could think of utilizing any other facility in the place. When the menu was brought, Sasha ordered one kilogram of chips with fully fried chicken. John made the assumption that the ordered food would accommodate them all and was reluctant to place his order.
The food was eventually served hot and tasty. John later ordered a plate of Ugali with fish after realizing that Sasha was busy enjoying her meal alone. But John wondered if she could consume the entire meal while chatting. That was the best place John had ever brought his lover. They enjoyed the meal for a while and eventually left to enjoy other facilities.
But John felt irritated at some point. Sasha had ordered a huge amount of food and only managed to consume a small amount. John was very economical and saw it as a waste of resources. Was it worth ordering more than enough when she knew very well that she could not consume it all? The stingy man thought of the best way to make her understand the importance of being economical. But obviously, she could not take it lightly, or maybe she might turn dramatic.
John had to caution his girlfriend against being extravagant. Sasha did not take it lightly and almost confronted him. The boyfriend had to calm down to avoid much embarrassment. John paid the bill and later left for the swimming pool. At the pool, they put on swimming pants and eventually interact with the water. They were to compete, or, alternatively, race. Sasha wanted to outperform John as the fastest swimmer. John could not relent. They had to spend the better part of their time in the water. At some point, they had to take photos for future memories.
Sasha was a very talented swimmer. She jumped into the water carefully, navigating skillfully through the water while maintaining a steady balance. It seems that she had several years' experience of swimming. For John, things were not easy as he struggled to swim. At some point, we almost drowned. John could not wait to die quietly. His girlfriend was at a distance, unaware of John's struggle. It became too much for him, and he had to let out a loud wail. A deep voice made everything come to a standstill.
"Help! Help! I am drowning. Please, someone help," a deep voice could be heard. "What! My boyfriend," Sasha murmured as she quickly made a move to intervene. By the time Sasha was almost approaching her man, there was a very fine girl around who had rushed to aid her. The girl was trying to guide John as she led him out of the pool. Sasha became too jealous to hold on. For sure, she could not see her man being held by someone who was competing with her beauty.
Sasha quickly made a move, forcefully pushed the lady away, and then held her boyfriend by her side. She gently made a word of help to the fiancé as she helped him out of the water. John felt very embarrassed about what had just happened to him. The big question remained: why did he choose to swim when he knew very well that he was not an expert?
