The Secret Diaries 5

"I know...it’s crazy and and stupid and foolish of me." I replied.
“Don’t forget to add foolish too." She retorted.
Then,

"That wasn’t part of the plan...it was just money Bibi, not love. ”

"I know, I just...i just let him get to me…but not to worry, I’ve learnt my lesson. I’m not seeing him anymore..." Shaking my head, i add "I’m not even going to try to get the phone back."without thinking.

I looked at her with a little sadness in my eyes.
And she caught it.
"What phone?" she asked.
"Mine." i give up. "I left it at Daniel’s."
"You left your phone there? Gee girl, you’re going to go get it back."
"No"
"I’ll go with you…"
"No Kendra, I can’t face him again"
"But……"
"don’t want to see him again and that’s it!" I fumed
Awkward silence...

Then Kendra reached out her arms and gave me a hug.
"Oh my poor baby… You’ll be fine OK? You’ll be fine without him."
"Yeah trust me, i know...i’ve been there," I said, hugging her back.
Through the weeks that came, I was true to my words.
I kept off Daniel.
Well I could…not having my phone made it quite easy for me.
My daily routine was...get to school, come home, eat and go to bed.
On some nights, Kendra made it a point to take me out for a drink or two which I appreciated...
But only because it helped me take my mind off Daniel a bit.
I decided to visit my service provider for a new sim and phone the next day but I forgot.

And it kept happening everyday...

Remember?go get it

How Well Do You Know Your Telephone History?

Have you ever wondered how you could just pick up this small device and talk through it to someone else, miles and miles away from you and hear them as clearly as if they were sitting on the same couch as you? I have wondered that a lot. I have wondered who could have stumbled on the idea that something could be done to make people who live far away from each other to communicate with each other by voice. How did the person get the idea? Well, here's what i found... Two men, Alexander Graham Bell and Elisha Gray stumbled on the idea; maybe around the same time, I don't know, but they both filed for a patent on the same day. This caused a huge disagreement that led to a legal battle to find who to be awarded the patent for the invention of the telephone. Alexander Graham Bell won. His lawyer had filed for a patent a few hours before Elisha's lawyer filed for his own patent. One day, in an electrical shop, Alexander Graham Bell was trying to perfect a method for sending mes...

I met a man once - The bad?

Hi guys, it's been months since I updated my blog... It's been a busy 1 year for me and I'm proud of myself and the woman I've become. A friend of mine reminded me a few days ago, of how grown I have become, especially mentally and in my writing skill. I didn't take her seriously until she mentioned my blog. You can't be surprised that i decided to take a look at it this morning only to become nostalgic. It reminded me of a lot of things but more than that, I can see the flaws in some of the things I've written, and I'm grateful that I am at a point in my career where I can actually spot all of it with ease and create several ways I could have done it better...on the spot! Before I get any more emotional 😎 I stumbled on the last draft I saved for publishing in February of last year and I'm going to share it with you guys exactly as I left it back then. Read On... "Some of us know how we can feel a lot of different emotions for just one perso...

I Met A Man Once (4)

Dear he-who-must-not-be-named! You texted me, "let's let it go. Gave it our best shot." Just at the time I was reading. "God tells you to put something down because he has something greater for you" and it made complete sense. I knew exactly what to do at that point. I knew that he actually wanted me to let you go. I did not know why, I did not want to let you go, but I knew then that he was answering my prayer of three-four months ago when I told him I didn't want to be in a relationship with any man again except he's actually my life partner, and how he should give me the wisdom to relate with the men in my life at that time, To not make the same mistakes as I did in the past, and that if I ever got really close in love with any of them and he wasn't the right one, that God should find a way to make something happen between us that would cause us to let each other go before we agreed to be exclusive. I realized that he had answered that...
