Chapter 5 THE WEDDING

Congratulations Mrs Simpson Romano said exchanging pleasantries with Beatrice who just got married to her Longtime Heartrob mr Fernandez Simpson;

Thank you Mr Romano Frederico Beatrice Replied with a smile on her Face,

As they were talking Rhoda walked in, helping the caterers in identifying those to give food, hey pretty damsel Romano said while greeting her, well-done you're Doing a great job, infact you're a good friend, always standing and supporting, May God Bless you.

Oh thank you Mr Romano, Rhoda Reply with so much Joy, it would be very wrong if I fail to support my friend, if I have opportunity, I will love to do more, Beatrice is more than just a friend to me, she is my confidant, she is my adviser, she is my best friend, I Love him with all my Heart.

If I may ask, Do you have a friend, I mean a best friend who knows you well, do you have any, Rhoda asked Romano.

Yes I do, his name is Roberto, but he his late Romano reply with his face facing down, he died in a plane crash while on a business trip to Amsterdam, its a Painful experience, the moment we shared together, the memories and Hus beautiful family Romano said while sobbing, Rhoda quickly brought out her Handkerchief to clean his face, sorry Romano, Rhoda said while cleaning his Face.

Don't you have a plan of raising a family, Rhoda asked Romano?

Yes I do, Romano Replied.

Am just coming out of a heartbreak by my fiancée, who never told me she was dating someone else, she moved on with his new catch and move out of the town, it was a Painful experience though, but I have moved on, one thing I know is that ''There is a Man For Every Woman and A Woman For Every Man'' Romano Said while looking straight into Rhodas Eyes.

Yes you're Right, Rhoda Replied, Indeed there is A Man For a Woman, But is it possible for a Lady to love a Man, and the Man is not reciprocating same love.

Yes it is, it is possible in both cases, just like my Fiancée that moved on, I Love her to the moon, but she does not love me too, to thesame degree, infact it was as if I was forcing myself on her, I was glad when she moved on, because it's obvious if we get married, things will go haywire, so am happy she moved on, though its painful, but its for the greater good, I know someday I will meet the one who will love me like I do to her, I believe someday I will meet the right person.

Rhoda was lost in deep thought,

Rhoda! Rhoda!! Rhoda!!!

Romano asked is anything the matter Rhoda?

Was lost in deep thought, Rhoda Replied,

Can you share, whats bothering your mind, Romano ask?

Hmmmmmm, Rhoda Responded

Talk to me, Romano Said

I had a similar Experience just as you, Rhoda Explain further, Kaylie was an Investment Banker, a Colleague and a work mate, I fell in love with him, but he doesn't love me like I do to him, I even make a meal for him too, perhaps he might reciprocate the love, but he didn't, on the day of our dinner date was when he told me he couldn't get along with me and besides he is not interested in any serious relationships for now, all his aspirations is his Job, nothing but the Job, he felt no remorse at all, am even feeling maybe he is a Sadist.

He isn't a Sadist, he isn't meant for you, that's just it, Romano Said, you see once you meet the one that is meant for you he will love you more than the way you could imagine, I believe love is a beautiful thing.

Rhoda you're beautiful, You Look so pretty, Romano said while smiling to Rhoda

Thank you for the Compliment, Rhoda replied, you're handsome too dear Romano.

I want to invite you for a dinner date dear, just you and I, Romano said, just as to get over this heartbreak and move on, I think you need it, you need to move on with your life, greater things are ahead, what you've lost cannot be compared to what is ahead you to be gained, you need it Rhoda, please don't say no, Romano said holding the hand of Rhoda.

Its a deal, Rhoda Smiled Back, I will honour it.

Oh thank you Romano hugged Rhoda Deeply,

Am sorry, wasn't meant to hold you like that, Romano Said.

Its okay, Rhoda Replied.

The date is this Weekend, Looking forward to see you Dear Rhoda,

Yes I will honour it, Dear Federico Romano.

I need to leave now, I have a meeting I need to honour, it's a business meeting and my presence is needed, see you this Weekend, He also went to meet Beatrice and drop the gift he brought to her and her husband.

Congratulations once again Mr and Mrs Simpson, the home will be blissful and fruitful, will be going now, I have a meeting to attend, thank you, Romano said.

You're such a darling, thank you for the gift, Beatrice Replied.

''Rhoda is longing for you'' Beatrice whispers this into Romano ears,Romano smiles sheepishly and left.

While driving the thought of what Beatrice told him struck his mind, he was literally smiling while driving, Playing A Reggae music Sang By Bob Marley ''One Love'', One Love Keeps us Together Oh Rhoda, Romano Said jokingly.

Will Rhoda makes me forget my Pains And Heartbreak, I Like her, I truly do, Can't wait to see her on the dinner date, There is something special about her, Hopefully she will love me the way I Loved Her, Romano Said while Soliloquizing.

Hoooh Hoooh Hoooh, Dog Barks As he Was Approaching his entrance, He Open His Gate, The Dog came to greet shaking his tail and Resting on Romano Body, Oh Jack while were you barking, is anything the matter Romano ask while walking straight to his Flat, To take a rest and prepare for tomorrows work.
