The following morning, Carl wakes up from a dream. She dreamt of Dylan smoothly rubbing her hair.
"I can't allow myself think of him. I can't allow myself even dream of him." She said to herself. "I guess the reason I dreamt of him is because I haven't thanked God for not making me get married to him."
She rose up and went to take her bath.
Done taking her bath, she walked to the room and dressed applying some cosmetic.
She walked out of the room with a smile on her face.
Melinda walked to her with a cup of tea which she rejected as she felt she was to thank God before taking anything in.
"Why Miss." Melinda asked.
"I don't just feel like having it." She said.
"Alright Miss." Melinda said and walked with the cup of tea back to the kitchen.
Carl sat on the couch giggling.
"I would be out of here soon." She said to herself.
Few minutes later, she got up and announced that she was leaving.
"Alright Miss." Melinda said and bade her goodbye.
She walked out to her car entering it. She drove off to the church.
Getting to the church, the first set of people she saw were her parents and some of their maid.
The church proceeding had not began so she arrived quite early.
She walked to her Dad and hugged him.
"Father!" She called hugging her father who turned back and smiled.
"Daughter!" Her father said with surprise.
"How are you, Carl?" Her mother asked.
"I am fine, mom." She said leaving her father to hug her mom.
"If I may ask, where is Dylan?" Her father asked but she didn't answer.
"Carl!" Her mother called.
"Oh, Dylan is fine. We chose to attend our different churches." She lied.
"That's nice but I think you both should attend same church as you are now a couple." Her father said and she nodded.
...…
The service started and Carl could feel the presence of God but suddenly her heart diverted to thinking about Dylan.
"I don't need to worry. I am surely going to forget about him once and for all." She said.
When they were told to pray, she found herself suddenly praying for Dylan. She shook her head slightly when she noticed this but still was praying for Dylan.
The service took an hour.
At the end of the service, she chose to go to her parents house as it been long.
"Won't Dylan want to see you?" Her mother asked and she shook her head.
"We would be going out in the evening." She said and her mother nodded.
Her mother smiled as she watched Carl enter her car.
"I wish to see my future son." She said and Carl smiled.
"Do not worry, he is quite busy but will meet you soon." Carl said not wanting to let them know about Dylan's affair yet.
She closed the door and drove to her parents house.
"Welcome ma, welcome sir, Welcome Miss." Some of the maids greeted.
Carl smiled entering the house as she remembered when she was leaving the house for her own home. She smiled remembering when she told her parents that she had a boyfriend.
She walked to a couch and sat.
A maid approached her.
"What will you like to have, Miss? The maid asked Carl who shook her head.
"What is happening?" Her mother asked coming to sit next to her. "Why don't you want to have something?"
"Thanks for your care, Mom but I have decided only to eat when I get home." She said.
"Alright, why are you here?" Her mother asked.
"I miss your love." She said and her mother smiled.
"Just be a darling." Her mother said.
Carl smiled and waited for some minutes.
"I would be on my way." She said after some minutes.
Mrs. Robin noticed her daughter's sad face.
"You look sad." She said but Carl shook her head.
"I am not sad." She said and walked out of the house.
Her mother followed her to the car and waved her as she got drove home.
Getting home, she found Kamela and Joel sitting together.
"Welcome Miss." Kamela said and Carl took a bow.
"How are you, Joel?" She asked and he smiled.
. "I am doing great, Miss." Joel said.
"Alright." Carl said and was about to move up.
"Miss!" Kamela called.
"Yes Kamela." She said turning back.
"I was told by Melinda that you didn't have anything to eat." Kamela and Carl nodded.
"Yes I did." She said.
"Had anything to eat?" Kamela asked and Carl shook her head.
"Do not worry." She said.
Joel took a deep breath and stood up.
"Do have something, Miss. A tea or meal." Joel said and Carl took a breath in.
"Alright, a cup of tea." Carl said with a smile on her face.
Kamela looked at Joel and smiled. She walked into the kitchen to get a cup of tea.
Minutes later, she walked out with a cup of tea and gave to Carl.
"Miss!" She called giving her the cup.
"I would take this up with me as I need to relax." She said and Kamela looked at Joel.
Carl noticed this and smiled understanding them.
"I won't do anything stupid." She said and Kamela turned to her.
Kamela nodded her head and gave her the cup.
"Thank you." Carl said collecting the tea and walked up to her room.
Getting to her room, she smiled looking around. The smile on her face faded immediately as she remembered Dylan.
She walked to her bed and sat.
"I would have left him, but I can't get him off my mind. I have tried many times but still I can't. I have the money and all. I am also beautiful but he chose to betray me with that slut. We have been dating for two years and I even told my friends that I will be getting married to him next two months. Everything has been prepared for our wedding. I have spent a lot on him but all he could do is to leave to be with that slut." She said to herself. She sits on the bed with her leg crossed. "Why can't I get him off my mind?" She asked herself picking up the cup that was before her.
She looked at the cup and smiling.
"I know I can never be yours but why don't your thoughts get off my mind?" She asked herself. "I tried thanking God for letting you go but still I could only pray for you. I only wish you could have the love for me but no, Clara has blinded you."
She suddenly felt heat and drank the whole content in the cup.
She got up and increased the cooler but nothing happened.
Due to this, she got out of her room to the living room.
Seeing Carl, Joel got up.
" I would be taking my leave now, Miss. " Joel said and she nodded.
Minutes after Joel had gone, her phone began to ring.
"Hello." She said with a smile on her face as she saw Natalie's call.
"How are you, Natalie?" She asked.
"I am good, Miss." Natalie replied. "I have a good news."
"What is it?" Carl asked.
"I will like you to remember telling me that you want to be a godmother to my child." She said and Carl was filled with laughter.
"You are pregnant?" Carl asked.
"No Miss." Nathalie said.
"You've adopted a cute child?" Carl asked smiled.
"No Miss." Nathalie said.
"I have a month old baby with me." She said confusing Carl.
"What do you mean?" Carl asked.
"I have been pregnant since and was told by my husband not to disclose it to anyone until the child is a month old." Nathalie replied.
"Really, I will like to visit you." Carl said smiling.
"Alright, I will be sending you the location." Nathalie said and hanged up.
Carl stood smiling and Kamela couldn't help but ask.
"You look happy, Miss." She said and Carl looked at her.
"Yes I am." Carl said smiling.
She told Kamela of what happened, how Kamela and Nathalie behave alike and how she asked to be the godmother of Natalie's child.
"Wow, that is nice, Miss. You should meet with the child." Kamela said and Carl nodded.
Minutes later, her phone beeped and she saw that Nathalie has sent her location.
"I do not know where this is." Carl said looking at the message.
Kamela looked at the message and smiled.
"I know where this is, Miss. Joel and I had gone there for his official duty but we acted like couples." Kamela said and Carl smiled.
Kamela demonstrated to her how to get to the location.
"Alright, thank you so much, Kamela." Carl said and placed a call to Nathalie.
"I will be there in some minutes." She said.
Immediately after the call, she walked up the stair in order to get her bag and left the house minutes later.
She looked happy as she walked into her car.
