Not all that sparkles is dash

Hi I'm Juliana, some call me Jules ... my story goes like this

After a long day of gardening, I went inside the house to freshen up then my friend Ariella arrived before I could clean myself. She wanted me to accompany her to the market and since I had no one to impress and had given up on love years ago and did not want anyone in my life no more I just took my dirty shoes which I had been gardening with the whole day and accompanied her. My dress was dirty and my afro was a mess, it was uncombed and was also dirty as I had been gardening the whole day.

Ariella: Girl stop playing games, go and change we are very late!!

Juliana: Chill,I'm going like this, why would I change after all?

Ariella: I know you got no one to impress but a girl has to be presentable always i'm not going with you wearing like this, hurry go and change

Mom: Don't mind her

Juliana: Do you want me to accompany you or what?

Ariella: Jeez so you are serious? Well then let's hit the road

Mom: Be safe and be back early I'm not going to cook for you

So, I accompanied my friend to the market, street boys were making fun of me but l didn't care, I acted as if I heard nothing so you must be wondering what made me like this, what made me give up on love,well then good question ... Since I was born, I never really had feelings for men, I never had an interest in being in relationships, I would watch my friends happy in their relationships and I would always happily third wheel but then there was this model who came into my dm, I'm not going to lie the guy was good looking and breathtaking ,I had to accept his proposal because of his looks but there was no connection. We went on for something like 6 months and as time grew my feelings for him grew as well. Just as I was about to take things to the next level, the guy started to lose feelings slowly and later on he started ignoring me and posting other girls and that was it, I never talked to him again, I felt used ,misled and heartbroken but I was not ready to give up on love. It took me time to recover as I was now used to this model even though I had no real feelings for him. As time went by, I started dating another model again.For me it was just dating, I only liked his dressing and his looks otherwise there were no erotic feelings, but l started to wonder why all my friends were happy in their relationships and why they last long because it was really different for me.

I continued dating that model but as time flew by, he started ignoring me just as the first one did. I went into the other relationship again and the same thing happened all over again, I was shattered beyond explanation because being ignored seemed to be in trend though it was different for my other friends. I became hesitant of being in a relationship because I was scared of being ignored all over again. Even when I found a good-looking person, I would not get into a relationship with him because that same fear of being ignored kept on haunting me. I was traumatized because of that; I wished my relationships could last longer but that never happened as men would always ignore me within a short period of time. My best friend Ariella was already in the 4th anniversary with her boyfriend and things were going well for them which made me wonder where I was going wrong. I-vowed to never get into a relationship with a guy again as I was very scared and traumatized.

More so, since I had no erotic feelings for men, my friends encouraged me into lesbianism. I never liked girls but wanted to know who l really was so I tried it with this girl Taylor but it was a very horrible experience and I had to break all ties with her. This also stressed me a lot as it didn't work, I just relaxed and vowed never to be in any relationship again, the first reason being that I had no erotic feelings and the other being that I was scared of being ignored all over again .

Back on the story

Ariella: You see Jules, this is what I was talking about hmmm, I urged you to dress, look at how you're embarrassing yourself now!

Juliana. Does it seem like l care?

Ariella: Of coz because all the boys are all over me

Just as we were about to reach the market a jeep grand (Cherokee) blocked our way and Ariella started fixing her hair for the owner to find her presentable but that frustrated me as the owner nearly hit us.

Juliana: What the fuck man, what is this what do you think of yourself, huh? What if you had killed us? (I-shouted at him so loudly that I drew everyone s attention. The guy came out of the car to apologize , I'm not going to lie, the dude was kind of ugly, slim and a bit short with scruffy logs on his head)

The guy: Hi, I'm very sorry to have done that but it was my only way to stop you, I knew you would not have given me attention if I had just tried to stop you, by the way Iam, James Dhlamini.

Ariella: NO, you don't have to apologize sir, it's a pleasure to meet you (and I was burning inside)

James: What's your name pretty girl?

Ariella: I'm Arie... (before she could finish, James cut her off)

James: No, I mean this pretty lady (referring to Juliana)

I was shocked , I wasn't expecting that at all because I was looking all messy and scruffy .

Juliana: ME ME? (I could not believe that someone would find me pretty in my dirty and smelly clothes but there he was Infront of me, though he was not good-looking since I was used to dating tall and handsome models)

James: Yes, you

Ariella: Her name is Juliana

We exchanged tags and all that, went to the market and returned home. I was blushing all the way. Even if I never wanted to fall in love again, this time I was utterly convinced that I had found true love since the guy had managed to see my beauty even when I was dressed up like a mad person .

At home

Mom Jules: I knew you were going to come back late and sorry if you think I have cooked because I haven't touched any pot since you left!!

Ariella: kkk you better cook my love

Meanwhile ,I was just blushing replaying the moment James asked for my phone number . Love was in the air , I could feel butterflies flying inside my tummy .On the other hand I was so restless, waiting for James to start a convo with me since he had taken my tags .I was lost in my own world busy imagining and fantasizing what life filled with true love would taste like

Ariella: Jules!

Jules: What?

Ariella: hmmm so you haven't even heard a thing l said ?Tell me are you thinking of him already, hmm look who is in love?

Jules: shhh lower your voice, mom might hear you

Mom: Jules its almost 7pm and you haven't cooked yet, c'mon go and put something on the stove your father will be here soon hungry and angry!

Ariella: Let me get going, shit is getting real

Jules: Eish wait let me just put something on the stove then I will accompany you, you know mom right (and mom heard it)

Mom: Don't even think about it, go and cook after that I have to send you somewhere so Ariella can go alone

Ariella: kkk it's okay, let me go...bye Mrs. Jam.... (She didn't finish it as Jules was eyeing her)

Mom: Please don't forget to pass my regards to your mom

I placed the sadza pot on the stove and chopped the vegetables quickly as I could sense my mom 's anger heating up.I was getting worried as James hadn't texted me yet. I waited and waited for James but I was slowly loosing patience even my mom noticed that something was wrong

MOM: Jules what's happening, are you mad at me because I didn't allow you to accompany Ariella?

Jules: Ughhh you're crazy, I'm just thinking about my advanced level exams which are around the corner

Mom: You better

I finished cooking, served the food and went to my room to check on phone but still there was nothing from James. I then decided to text Ariella

Jules: hey bish

Ariella: How are you Mrs. Jay jay

Jules: stop it already, he hasn't texted me yet

Ariella: kkk chill, he will

Jules: It's been hours Ariella

Ariella: hmm someone is in love

Jules: I'm serious, I'm getting worried

Ariella: Be patient, ok I took his business card let me pass you the tags on it

Jules: That's why I love you

Ariella; Are you going to start a convo with him though

Jules: oowh shit that would make me look desperate, I don't know ey

Ariella: don't be shy, go get you mans ...and I promise you this one is serious mara you were looking like shit

Jules: eish I don't know, anyways how is Tanya? (Ariella 's bf which they been dating for 4 years)

After the chat with Ariella, I started thinking if I should really start a convo with him or not. I waited for hours and still there was nothing, then I decided to start a convo with him. Please don't judge me, I know I sound desperate but I couldn't control myself, so I had to call him

Jules :(It rang and the call was answered with a female voice ) hello

Voice: Hello JTM companies on the line

Jules: mmmmm ca ca can I

Voice : Please let us know how we can help you

Jules: I would mmm, sorry ey maybe its wrong number, can I perhaps talk to... (and the call was up before I could even finish)

I was devastated to be honesty, all I wanted was to talk to him, so I had to talk to Ariella again in order to know what was happening. Her phone rang and she answered, her voice sounded bored though.

Arielle: what now?

Jules: whose tags did you give me ey ?

Ariella: Do you even check the time before calling other people? I got no time for this you are disturbing my sleep what do you want?

Jules: I'm I going to repeat myself again

Ariella: I told you Jules, let me send a snap of the card, what happened ?

Jules: Send, will talk tomorrow

So she send it, that's when I saw it was a business card , his personal details weren't there ,there was a company name JTM a clothing company ,I felt so embarrassed because of my desperation of wanting to chat with him.

Jules: Wait does this dude have a company? but he never told me wow so humble (talking to myself)

The time clocked 1200 and I was still waiting for James to chat with me. My hopes were slowly fading away and As I was dozing off my phone rang. Whocould that be, it better not be Ariella?

Voice: hello (I recognized the voice and my heartmelted right away)

Jules: hie(shyly)

Voice: How are you babe?

Woooaw I couldn't believe this was happening. I was blushing and answering with a calm voice

Jules: sorry, who am I chatting with?(pretending if I didn't know)

Voice: ah babe thought you knew, any ways its James

I pretended not to know him at all as if I wasn't waiting for his call. Only if he knew how many hours, I had waited for him and what I went through to get him to talk to me

Jules; sorry, who is James, please be specific I don't have much time

Voice: Ah babe, have you forgotten me already, I'mthe guy you met near the market earlier

Jules: Oooh I see

Voice: yeah, so how are you ?

We got to know each other better as we kept on talking. He told me that he owned the JTM clothing store and I began to wonder what he wanted from an A level student. This is true love, I said to myself.After a chat with him, I had a wonderful night and all I dreamt of was him. I woke up very early the next morning checking if the was any message from James on my phone. Luckily there was "a good morning sunshine", I blushed as I replied how are you, James. I turned off my data, started playing perfect by ed Sheeran, singing along. I finished my chores on time, way before my mom

woke up, which in turn shocked her.

Mom: Is everything okay?

Jules: Good morning maa

Mom: This is shocking, You working up before me? Anyways let me go and make breakfast your father is going for a meeting soon!

Jules: Its already done, I made hamburgers

Mom: God is good for sure, you Jules?

I was really in a good mood for sure. After that I started browsing on the internet looking for a skincare routine, I even started doing squats all this to impress my new man. After taking a shower , I checked my phone and James had texted me . the text read "hey babe, are you free today? wanted to take you out for lunch. I went into my wardrobe in a hurry to look for nice clothes which I could impress James with. As I was searching through my clothes, I found a nice red hugging dress which I wore with my summer sandals. I applied some light makeup and sprayed my mom s favorite perfume.

Mom: young lady who gave you permission to spray my perfume?

Jules: (oops I hadn't seen her) mom what are you doing in my room

Mom: answer my question, and where do you want to go this early?

Jules: oooh thought Arielle told you yesterday that she wanted me to accompany her to the studio in town , she is having a glam photoshoot ,oowshiididn't I tell you?

Mom: ooh , be back early remember I'm not going to do any chores , the plates and pots will be waiting for you when you come back

I gave James my home address and went and waited for him outside our gate. I patiently waited for him and after a couple of minutes I saw a black Royce roll coming towards our gate. Who could that be with an expensive car in the ghetto of Glenview? The car window was lowered a little and to my surprise it was James on the steering.

James: Hey babe (omg is he that rich, I asked myself)

My mind was filled with many questions, who is this man really , and if he is that rich what does he want from a person like me , I'm not that beautiful what'shappening. A s I was busy questioning myself lost in my own world, James interrupted me with a warm hug

Jules: oow hey when did you get out of the car

James : You seem to be very lost , what's happening my lady?(OMG his cologne smelled nice and expensive , and his hug was very warm , I'm not going to lie I was impressed , though his looks werenot all that.)

James was not tall neither was he short, he was in between in the middle, he was dark in complexion,had a goat beard , round big eyes and a slim body. Hewas not my type tbh but the fact that he had loved me with my dirty and scruffy clothes made me fall for him

James: enter my lady (he had opened the car door for me, what a gentleman)

Jules: thanks

We drove towards the Mutare road with the music on blast

James: so, tell me more about yourself my lady

Jules (with a lower voice) ok my name is Juliana Dhlamini 18 years of age and..

James interrupted me

James: I'm glad you are legal now, sorry for interrupting go ahead

Jules: I'm writing my A level this year in November,I'm the only child of my parents and as you know I'm from Glenview 2. My hobbies are swimming and hiking mm I guess that's it; you can ask if I left out something

James: wow impressive, so tell me where you got this beauty groom, is it your mom or my father-in-law (I giggled covering my face)

Jules: stop it

James: mmm, ok so I'm James Mauya, I'm an entrepreneur I own a couple of businesses, grocery stores, clothing brands and all that. I'm the first born in a family of 7 but my parents are no more.

Jules: oh, I'm sorry ey

James: its ok babe (touching my thigh)

Jules: you didn't tell me our age

James: kkk can you guess it

Jules; you look 24 (James laughed out loud)

James: you are wrong

Jules: 27

James: Wrong again

Jules: aah so you tell me, I can't keep on guessing (pretending to be angry)

James: I'm old enough babes, it's just a small body I have but I'm old (and I just rolled my eyes)

Mom Jules: I knew you would come back late, if you think I was going to cook then you lost it I haven't touched any pot since you left!!

Ariella: kkk you better cook my love

Meanwhile I was blushing and restless, waiting for James to start a chat with me since he had taken my tags and I hadn't taken his because of shyness.

I waited for the other two hours and still there was nothing, then I decided to start a convo with him. Please don't judge me, I know I sound desperate but I couldn't control myself, so I had to call him

James interrupted me

James: I'm glad you are legal now, sorry for interrupting go ahead

Jules: aah so you tell me, I can't keep on guessing (pretending to be angry)

James: I'm old enough babes, it's just a small body I have but I'm old (and I just rolled my eyes)

James kept on driving towards the Umtali road and stopped on a fancy restaurant, he opened the door for me and we went inside the hotel holding hands. Hepulled out the chair for me. I'm not going to lie the restaurant looked quite expensive, I checked the menu and all the food started from 100 us and above , truly I was shocked but what shocked me more Isthat we were the only clients in that restaurant.

Jules: where are the others? (Was used to our small restaurants in Glenview where every soul will be)

James: It's a weekend , people are resting

Jules: I see

James : So what are we ordering ?

Jules: I will have whatever you are having

James: babe that's not fair

James order crabs and cocktail for us, ooh how I hate sea food. As I was about to complain my phone rang and it was a call from Ariella.

Jules: hey

Ariella: Now that you are in love you don't talk to us anymore ?

Jules: hm wasup

Arielle: tell us, how is it going, how is our man

Jules: I will kill you hey, will text you I'm v busy with him right now

Arielle: heheheh ok bae , don't forget to update us oooh

Jules: sharp

I finished the call and placed my Huawei y4 on the table preparing to eat

James: mm babe I see you need a new phone ( I pretended not to hear it, my phone was cracked and old so I slowly took it off the table and placed it in my fake Gucci purse)

Jules : you ordered crabs ?

James: you like them

Jules :( I didn't want to act so backward so I lied to him) Of coz, they are my favorite

I dug in and the taste was not bad but the fact that they were crabs didn't sit well with me , I never liked see food , I nearly pulled but I had to pretend to like them since I had lied . I didn't finish the whole food as I was pretending to be cool. My stomach was literally empty I really needed some strong food tbh. James licked the plate dry and then ordered some dessert .It was ice cream , Victoria sandwich cake and some fruit salad , these were my favorites so I quickly served my plate . I was very hungry , my tummy was grumbling but I didn't want to show it so I took a small piece of cake , a spoonful of ice-creamand some fruit salad and began to dig in like a lady but deep-down I wanted to swallow everything that was on the table . James was watching me chewing slowly and smiling taking me cute pics ...OMG I was very hungry and this pretense was killing me.Luckly James excused himself to the bathroom and I swallowed 2 pieces of cakes at once , ate the fruit salad like my life depended on it. Two minutes later James returned from the bathroom and I had to put my act on again.

James: oooh I see someone likes cake huh? (Lookingat the cake which was almost in half)

Ow shit why hadn't I thought about it, I ate 4 piecesof cakes and it was noticed because he hadn't taken any

Jules: ooh no baby the cakes fell soi had to call the waitress to clean that up

James: ok if you are done, I guess we can go

Jules: ok ,what about the payment?

And the waitress interrupted me

Waitress: ooh e is the executive owner of this restaurant so he doesn't have to

Jules: ooh why didn't you tell me/

Waitress: He also paid for people not to come here today since he wanted to spend quality time with you without any disturbance

James: (to the waitress (was that necessary

Waitress: I'm sorry sir, I will get going

I was shocked tbh, so this guy is indeed rich huh, and he also loved me wooow he restricted everyone from buying into restaurant all for me?

James: my lady lets go

He opened the car door as usual, I jumped in .It felt like I had known him for long and my feelings for him started to grow deeper, not because of his money no, but his love for me and his humble spirit led to all that.

Jules: Now where to? home?

James: would you like to watch a movie with me?

Jules: How can I say no to you

We drove back to Harare, went to the cinema in Borrowdale Brooke and watched a romantic movie there but we entered in the cinema separately for he didn't want to be seen with people as he claimed thathe was a celebrity. He was touching my hands as we were watching the movie ,which send shivers all over my body. For the first time in my life I felt something for a man. Indeed he was God send. He learned to kiss me and surprisingly I responded , something I never thought could happen with me . Never have I ever had such feelings. The movie ended quickly and we went back to the car , he drove me home holding my other hand, my feeling for him grew deeper and deeper truly I wanted more. As we arrived at our gate, we shared a kiss again and I jumped out of the car ran straight into my room . Happiness was written all over my face , I was giggling and smiling pinching myself thinking about what had happened earlier . I kept seeing the vision James kissing me and I could still feel his soft lips on mine. I quickly changed my clothes a went into the kitchen to cook that's when I bumped into mom.

Mom: when did you return ?

Jules: about 30 mins ago, good afternoon ma

Mom: Is it still afternoon, its almost 6

Jules: mmmm

Mom: whose cologne is that, you smell of a man s cologne and it smells expensive

Jules: (oow shit, said to myself) ooh mom I sprayed this at the shoot Ariella also ended up advertising perfumes

Mom: I hope so, how was the shoot though?

Julea: well, I can't complain everything went well

As I was cooking, I got a call from Ariella

Jules: I was going to call you; can't you be patient?

Ariella: tell us, to hell with patience

I told her everything about my day and for the first time I could see that my friend was very happy for me

Ariella: So you didn't leave anything for me?

Jules: Kkkk shut up

Ariella: how was the kiss, you didn't exactly describe it, you know

Jules: hmm stop it, ugh I told you already (blushing)

Ariella: why do I feel like you are not telling me everything hmmm tell me, what else happened?

Jules: will talk to you later (and I hung up immediately)

My phone rang again and it was Ariella waiting for the full details. I placed it on airplane mode and started listening to some good music since I had a really good day. A couple of minutes later my mom came running with her phone

Mom:Ariella is on the line (handing me over the phone)

Jules: What now Ari?

Ariella: You blocked my calls, right? Anyways I don't care if you did or not just tell me how it went (and mom was actually looking at me waiting for her phone)

Jules: mmm actually the shoot was really good, the makeup was on point, I just hated the fact that it ended. (And Ariella knew that mom was around)

Ariella: hmm I love what I'm hearing, truly I'mimpressed, so when are we going on a double date?

Jules:hayii man your too fast ,it's too early just chill okay

Ariella: No I want to know already, tell me tell me please tell me

Jules ; stop dreaming that will never happen, not with you naa I can never enjoy my peace with you around

And mom decided to interrupt

Mom: I need to use my phone please

We laughed and said our goodbyes, I continued with my music and cooking.

AT ARIELLA S HOUSE

Ariella : mom ey

Ary s mom: what's happening , you look so happy

Ariella : sit (tapping on the couch )

Ary s mom: everything ok with you? How is Tanya by the way its been long since I heard from him

Ariella: sssh screw him let's talk about something knew ... Jules got a bf now (jumping up and down0

Ary s mom: omg since when, I'm so happy for her ey, who is the guy

Me and mom discussed about the guy and truly she seemed so happy for her. After a talk with mom , I went to face time my love Tanya in my room.

Tanya:babe

Ariela: did you miss me?

Tanya: of coz it's been long my love

Ariella:Hmm so why haven't you called me all day

Tanya: babe I was busy preparing for our anniversary, remember it's around the corner my love

Ariella:ooow I see babe , was also planning a double date with Jules and her man, are you up for that?

Tanya:ooh that one you once told me about? You know I'm happy for her was really tired of her third wheeling us

Ariella : kkkk , lets talk later my love mom is calling me

Tanya: ok babe take care , I love ( and he hung up)

As I was about to go and prepare some food , my call rang and it was an unknown number

Voice: hello Ariella

Ariella: Who is this?

Voice: Its Muntu , hey please don't hang up(I'm not gonna lie , I felt my blood boil, Muntu was Jules s ex)

Ariella : what do you want now, dickhead?

Voice : No please I'm sorry for everything I did to her, I'm truly sorry but the truth is I still love her , I do plese understand me Ary

Ariella:Mxm too late ass hole( and I hung up) How dare he ?

I quickly rang Jules to inform her about that call, honestly I was frustrated

Jules; What an a hole , who does that ? Who does he think he is to just go and comeback whenever he want ....nxxxx there is no place for him here I have already moved on

Muntu had really broken me beyond repair, was starting to get committed when he ghosted me , now that I have moved on he think he can just came back anytime he wants, nonsense. This guy really frustrated me .As I was busy cursing , my phone vibrated ,it was a message from James

James: my love

Jules :James

James : aah I'm I just James to you)

Jules; do you have another name?

James; stop it Jules , you know I love you wani( this kinda send shivers all over my body)

Jules: ooow (I responded as if I didn't care but deep down I wanted to tell him al those love words)

James :come on babe stop this , I love you

Jules :I know

James : so please respond with the answer that will satisfy me please, you are the only one in my heart , no 1 else

Jules : (I was also feeling the same but I thought it was too early to tell him)We will talk James , imcooking

James : I want an answer now ,or else I'm coming over to your house tomorrow

Jules :what

James:yes

Jules: it's too early don't you think?

James:Its never too early, I want you and that's it

Jules :Listen , we will talk later ok

James: chill babe , I was just pulling your socks,kkkk

Jules: that not funny , idiot(teasingly)

James: Angry already? , uugh my babe c'mon now was just playing with you, forgive me my lady

Jules:No , that was not cool...no forgiveness from me

James :then I'm coming over to take you for ice cream

Jules :really ? but its late my mom won't allow me

James: Don't be dumb babe , Iooks like I gotta teach you new tricks

Jules(I just giggled )

James: ahhuh

Jules: I gotta go mom is calling me

James: you mean my mother in-law

(This made me blush even more)

We ended the call, I prepared dinner and served it

Mom: What happened to you

Jules: what do you mean

Mom: your mood nowadays, you finish you serve dinner on time, you do your chores without me having to tell you first and above all your always smiling and giggling

Jules;( OOW so she noticed)

Mom: ahuh speak up ,what's happening

Jules: kkk your just seeing your own things I always cook on time maa

Mom: I know these things

Jules: Maaa

Mom: I'm watching you

I was so astonished that my mom managed to notice the change of my behavior, so truly I was in love and on top of that with the right man. Around 9pm I went to my room to take a nap and as I was busy looking for my pajamas I heard a knock on the window, omg could it be a thief? As I moved closer to the window holding a broom to attack the trespasser, to my surprise I saw James .

Jules: wtf are you doing here this late

James ; I missed you

Jules: not so loud man , my parents s bedroom is 2 rooms away

James: sorry, I miss you(whispering)

Jules: You could have called dummy, what if someone sees you here it's not funny okay

James: Come, jump

Jules: are you nuts?

Without asking for my consent he held my hand, pulled me out through the window and since he was not standing straight I fell straight onto him and we both landed on the ground , ouch at least I was on top of him so I didn't feel any pain.

James: ooowuch, ouch

Jules ; shhh sorry though

James : though what? I cant feel my back

Jules ; serves you right , who gave you the right to do this man , it's not funny if someone sees you here then I'm done for

James : Relax (rubbing my back since I was on top of him)

I started relaxing bit by bit as he continued rubbing my back forgetting that we were in our yard. He caressed my back with his soft hands and learned on to kiss me . We exchanged the tongues and before we could take things further , the main gate opened and oops my papa was back from work if it was work for real, no one knows.

Jules :OMG did you hear that( we quickly fixed ourselves , James threw me inside the window ,jumped out through the backyard and told me not to close the window yet)

We almost got caught. Because of this incident my breathing levels increased as someone who is suffering from asthma .I heard my dad opening the front door dragging himself to the bedroom. Oh I could tell that man was drank 100 % even though my mama believes that he will be working till that hour. After a couple of minutes later James arrived with a cup of my favorite ice cream vanilla topped with chocolate balls.

Jules; Wait, where did you get the ice cream(whispering)

James : I did promise you this earlier

right ? Where it came from is not of your concern, now give me a kiss, before I jump inside

Jules; I quickly gave him one as he was standing on a rock in order to reach my lips through the window.

James : bye see you soon

I started enjoying my ice cream as I watched him climbing out through our Jura wall, funny fact nobody saw us. I sat on my bed listening to perfect by ed Sheeran , imagining things and enjoying my

ice cream at the same time. "My man is perfect" I uttered. A couple of minutes later I received a text from James which read, "I'm home now my love"

Jules : nice , thanks for the ice cream I really enjoyed it

James : ooh I'm glad

Jules:I appreciate your sweetness and kindness , you made both my day and night , thanks

(This guy was sweet and I could feel his pure intentions towards me .What I loved most about him is that he was not a flirt , he acted maturely and took things really slow ,I prayed I will never lose him before hitting the sack and indeed I slept peacefullyuntil I was woken up by the noise coming from my parents s bedroom, of not again. This guys were fighting, again ..it was so frustrating , what could be the problem again? I took my pillow, covered my ears as the fight kept ongoing, but unfortunately this did not work . There were a lot of screams and cursings , that even managed to work up our neighbors since our house were close by . These guys were always fighting , firstly because my papa couldn't find my mom attractive anymore, wasalways cheating , was always drunk and also the fact that she had one child a girl which was me by the way. After hours of exchanging fists and blows my mom barged into my room and jumped into my blankets as I pretend to be asleep. I heard her sobbing and I swear that made my heart bleed, I felt like I have been throbbed right on my chest. "Is marriage always this hard, is it a good idea to get married after all"?, I started questioning myself. But it is said all will be well if you get married to the right person , but how do you know he is the right one ?becausemy papa used to love my mama , he used to do everything for her , he just changed out of the blue, what if James do the same to me? You can never predict the future, if you could my mama wouldn't be in this situation.

NEXT DAY

I woke up around 7am , placed my phone on the charger and started doing my chores. Yesternight s fight kept on ringing through my head , I didn't like to see my mom crying . my rage increased as I saw the man himself coming into the kitchen where I was doing dishes. I chose to ignore him as if I ad seen nothing.

Papa: Good morning ... if we don't start you won'teven greet us ?

I ignored again as if I had not seen or hear anything

Papa: Jiliana !!

Jull; hi(I calmly answered)

Papa: so you were not hearing me?( I kept quiet again , doing my dishes slowly)

Ppa: Jules, mxm women are all the same I wonder why someone would be this moody in the morning

Jull; did you say something? ( he got frustrated and left,nxx serves him right)

I know I shouldn't be getting in between my parents 's fight, but my papa was too much , I thanked God that James was way more different than him. I promised myself never to be in a relationship with drunkard as one will end up like my mama. James was so much different from him... he was caring,sweet and a man who never breaks his promises.

HOURS LATER

After doing my chores I received a phone call from Ariella

Ariella: Hey did you finish the holiday assignments?

Jules: You know me better , don't you?

Ariella: I know you my love

Jules: Heheh , since when did you started calling me that, is it because tomorrow is the opening day? Iknow what you want you can just ask without beating around the bush

Ariella : bitches just copy and paste it to me

Jules ; how much?

Ariella : We will exchange bfs

Jules ; stupid , which question didn't you write?

Ariella: (slowly)All of them

I knew it , Ariella never writes her assignments , neither does she even study as she spends 90% of the time with Tanya.I copied and pasted it to her , woke James up to wish him a good morning since he had not been online yet. A couple of minutes later my mam woke up for breakfast but the weird thing is that she was covering her face.

Jules; Good morning mama

Mom: Morning(she was avoiding eye contact with me as her eyes were bloody red)

Jules: Why is your face covered

And suddenly papa entered and sat on the table as I was serving breakfast. I served two plates, mine and my mama s and we began to dug in as my papa was staring.

Papa; wonders shall never end, what is this huh?Juleswhere is my food?

Jull: on the table

Papa: so I'm supposed to serve for myself, huh?

Jules: Mom what happened to your face , you got bruises?

I wanted to see my papa s reaction

Mom: Jules (giving me signals that I should keep quiet)

There was some tension on the table and I quickly took my plate and made my way to my room leaving mom and daddy arguing. I know I was being disrespectful but I was getting sick and tired of his behavior. I could hear the screams and shoutingsfrom my room and I swear I will never be like them. I packed all my important books, pens in my backpack as the next day was the school's opening day and since I haven't heard from James I decided to text him.

Jules: Hey

The message just blue ticked and I tried again and the same thing happened. Could he be busy, or could he be mad at me for something? questions were busy running around my mind. I started getting worried,but since the next day was going to be a very busy day , I started preparing for school. On the other hand , mom and dad were shouting and fighting each other which made have a second opinion about marriage. I hated these kind of moments at home , they never thought how much their quarrels could affect me, truly speaking it was traumatizing but knowing that James was different gave me some comfort . After a little while I checked my phone again to see if there was any message from James and still there was nothing but his last seen was recent. I started wondering what went wrong since we had enjoyed ourselves the previous night. Manythoughts ran around mt mind but I tried to avoid them by getting busy with house chores , meanwhile Arielle was busy hanging around with her boyfriend and posting on the IG feeds.

****

Arielle: So how do you feel knowing that tomorrow is our 5th anniversary

Tanya : babe I don't have words but I would like to thank you for stepping each and every step with me . You were with me and never left my side even when I was at my lowest, what more could I have asked for from a lady. I'm still young and I'm not financially stable like James but I promise things will et better as time goes. Just stand by myside babe , I promise your love will make our lives better, I pro...( I shuted him out with a kiss before he could finish , this man was too cute)

Arielle: You are just too cute ey​

Tanya: I love you

Arielle: I loveee yooou

Tanya: MM look at the time, we better get going you have school tomorrow

Areille: And it's also our anniversary ey (jumping up and down)

Tanya: Let me get us ice creams before we head home

After ice creams me and my man headed home .Tanya dropped me on the gate with his dad 's car. Itruly didn't care about his financial stability, all I needed was him and my love for him grew more day by day. I went inside freshened up and placed all my books in my backpack since the following day was the school opening day . I decided to surprise Tanya with matching outfits for our anniversary, so I used my mom s card to order some outfits from JTM scrolling through different outfits , I noticed one unique outfit which was displayed but had no price tag. It was really beautiful so I decided to ask for the price, I didn't care anymore about matching with James , all I needed was that cute outfit.

Arielle: Evening

Voice: JTM store on the line, how can I help you?

Arielle: I wanted to ask about the cute outfit displayed on your page with no price tag

Voice : OOOh it's not for sale miss, the owner of this company made it for someone special

Arielle: What do you mean? Can't you just sell it to me, I will buy it with a double price

Voice : I'm sorry ma'am, it had already been given to that special person , we are just displaying it on this page because it was one of the most unique designsour CEO has ever made.

******

These news shocked me and started wondering whatthe JTM employees were trying to say . Could James be cheating on my friend?, no way he looks so genuine that can't happen ,"questions were floodingmy head so I decided to call my bestie.

Arielle: what took you so long to answer bitchess?

Julles:hahha wasup

Arielle: what are you gifting us for our anniversarytomorrow?

Jules : nxm is that why you called? Anyways the assignment I already gave you is more than enough , knowledge is not for free

Arielle: hahahh are you kidding me? Writing assignments for me is your duty girl, I need money ey. Remember your rich lols

Jules: since when

Arielle ; since the day you decided to date James

( we both laughed)

Arielle: anyways how is our mbinga(wealth person)

Jules :He hasn't talked to me since morning

Arielle : mm why, what did you do to upset him? , I know you girl

Jules: nothing ey , I guess he is just busy

Arielle: Could he be cheating

Jules: You know he is not even capable of doing that, why are you even saying it?

Arielle: woo chill girl , are you mad already?

Jules: who wouldn't be , you know him , don't you?

Arielle: anyways, I wanted to ask you something, did James gift you any hood jacket?

Jules: noo , why the hood of all things ?

Arielle: was just asking

Jules: you know you can't hide anything from me right?

Arielle : ooh c'mon why would I even?

Jules: I know you more than you know yourself buddy, what going on

Arielle told me everything about the hood ,she was panting and also sounding scared for me but er story didn't really get to me because I trusted James with my heart and soul .Something in me didn't trust or believe Arielle 's story though" but why would she make it up" ?, I asked myself.

Arielle told me everything about the hood, she was panting and also sounding scared for me but er story didn't really get to me because I trusted James with my heart and soul. Something in me didn't trust or believe Arielle 's story though" but why would she make it up" ?, I asked myself".

ARIELLE

I narrated everything to Jules but she didn't seem to believe me. I get that she trusts her man and I do that too , he isn't capable of hurting anyone but people change , she is the only friend I have and I wouldn't want anyone to hurt her , especially after what that girl has been through in her previous relationships .Honestly speaking I have never seen Juliana as happy as she is right now with James so I'm going to give it my all to make sure my girl is safe. That hood issue kept on ringing on my mind so I decided to distract myself a bit by calling Tanya.

Tanya: hey

Arielle : Did you get home safe?

Tanya: Yes babe , wasupp?

Arielle : Nothing , I just wanted to know if my man arrived safely

Tanya; that's cute, what are you up to?

Arielle: nothing much, just ironing my uniforms...

Tanya; listen, I got to go mom is calling me

******

As soon as he hung up , Arielle got a call fromMuntu , Jules 's ex boyfriend

Muntu; Hie please don't hang up

Arielle : I thought I blocked you bitch

Muntu: I'm sorry please , hear me out I need Jules tags I need to ask her for forgiveness please I'm sorry

Arielle: you are beginning to annoy me now, you should have thought about this earlier

Muntu: Arielle I'm sorry please

Arielle: I'm not the one you should be apologizing to, I don't need your apology

Muntu: then give me the tags of the person I owe an apology then

Arielle : so you can hurt her again ?

Muntu :Ariella please

Ariella : she got a bf now

Muntu: so what , I just want to apologize to her and become her friend again

Ariella : whatever , I just texted you her tags

MUNTU

I'm Muntu 27 years old of age and I'm Juliana 's ex. I have always found her beautiful since the day I met her , but really loved to take things slow with her since she was a minor . My feelings for her grew deeper day by day but it didn't seem like she felt the same , I could tell she was faking everything but that didn't change what I felt for her. I even reached the stage of wanting to marry her but her age stopped me, She was so juvenile , our values and the things we liked were not even aligning. I wanted a girl I could go clubbing with, get drunk and have some funny with but because of her age she had a curfew.Even though I found her beautiful and all that, I started growing impatient and I thought of ghosting her and finding a new girl. I knew my decision was going to hurt her but I had to do it , besides she never acted like she cared about me , I could see it through her eyes she never had any feelings for me , she only liked me , maybe because I'm a model and I'm very handsome , that I know. So I dated this other fashion model and her name was Lee. She was the daughter of a very rich and famous entrepreneur, she even helped me with the modelling opportunities, Yeah , she was beautiful but Jules was far more beautiful than her. Even though she was someone of my age and someone I wanted There is not even a second or minute that Jules ever left my mind but I had to let go and let her grow. However, ghosting her was becoming a lil hard for me so I decided to app her only to find out that she had blocked my number. Truly speaking my ego was hurt, I mean I was handsome and all that. This alone proved where she was standing in our relationship , she never loved me , so I also blocked her and deleted her tags only to find out months later that I really loved her and couldn't I've without her so I convinced her best friend Arielle to pass me Jules tags. I was hesitant but I had to call her

*****

JULES

As I was busy ironing my uniforms my phone buzzed and I jumped with excitement , throwing the iron away as I thought that James had finally called .

Jules; hello (it was a new number)

Muntu: hello

( I recognized the voice , what a bummer I hanged up and return to my uniforms and oops the iron had fallen on top of my skirt and burnt the whole butt area)

Jules: oooh nooo (screaming)

Mom: what is it (she came running)..OMG Juliana!!

Jules:( I just kept quiet still in shock)

Mom: Why don't you learn to be careful just for once? Now what are you going to do ,its late where are you going to get another skirt? I gave you money to buy an extra skirt but you used it all on your cosmetics, look now...

(she kept on blabbering nonstop but none of that got to me as I was still frustrated with Muntu 's call and James ignoring me)

Mom: what's wrong with you , can't you hear what I'm saying? (and daddy arrived)

Dady: what is all that noise for? So I can't even have some peace in this house, what is it?

Mom: she burnt the uniform

Dady: so what, can't you buy another one? Stop being dramatic mama Jules

Mom: where will she buy another one at this hour? You stop being dramatic!!

(and the argument went on and on until I decided to excuse myself, I was getting tired of these guys for real.. I went into my room sat on bed and started wondering what I was going to wear for tomorrow. Suddenly my phone rang again and it was Muntu)

Jules: what is it

Muntu: hear me out please , don't hang up...I'm I , I (stammering)

Jules: is that why you called? I don't have all day say what you want to say

Muntu: can I see you

Jules : NO

Muntu : ok I understand , I just wanted to apologiesfor everything I ever done to you , truly I'm sorry ... I don't have any reasonable excuse for the way I behaved with you

Jules: ok

Muntu: I know you are still mad at me, I understand I shouldn't have ghosted you, I'm truly sorry

Jules :ok

(Honestly if this guy was trying to annoy me, he was really doing it well)

Muntu : I owe you lunch , maybe that way you can accept my apology

Jules: fuck you if you think you can buy my feelings with food, Iyou left me broken alone now you just want me to let all that go in exchange for lunch (and l hung up)

MUNTU

Yeah , I could see how broken Juliana was . I had messed with her feelings big time , I never thought she loved me or cared that much because she never showed it .Seeing how broken she was , I never wanted to see her broken again , all I wanted was just to protect her because I cared. I decided to app her with my new contact since she had blocked my previous one. In the text I wrote" Hie Jules its Muntu again, I know you probably hate me and don't want to hear from me ever again but I promise you , I come in peace ..I know I hurt you and broke you but I'm sorry please , I'm not asking you to forgive me , now but I don't want you to keep on hurting because of what I did to you. I know I don't deserve your apology, I just want you to be happy girl please ..I heard you have a new man and I pray he doesn't end up breaking you like I did, I promise all I want is for you to be happy. Love you."

After a few seconds I checked my phone to find out that Jules had already opened my message and blue ticked me ..I only want her to be happy , nothing else.

JULES

My phone chimed only to find out that it was a text from Muntu, I really wanted to delete it before reading it but the long message tempted me. I read the whole thing and I ended up crying, the message was so emotional. I didn't expect such message from a guy like him, truly speaking this guy looked like a player and he also proved it to me when he ghosted me and got another girlfriend but this message sounded so genuine. It took me time to respond though because I was still thinking if I should let him in my life again or not. I didn't want him to come to my life as my lover but only as a friend because I was truly and deeply in love with James, no man had ever made me feel like what I feel when I'm around him. While I was lost in my thoughts , mom called me ..

Jules: yes

Mom: it's getting late, what are you going to do about your uniform?

Jules: I have talked to Arielle, she is going to give me one of hers

Mom: you are lucky ,next time concentrate when ironing

Jules; yes mom , I et me go to her house now see you later

Mom: you better come back soon

As I opened the gate I saw a blue Lamborghiniparked opposite our gate and inside was James giving me signals to come there. OMG my heart pounded continuously, I couldn't even breath , truly I was excited to see him . I ran to the car , he came out , I jumped on him and he lifted me in the sky like a toddler . I had last seen him the previous night but it felt like a decade, already I had missed him an he also felt the same.

Jules : what are you doing here?

James : to see my lady ( opening the door for me , truly the opposite of Muntu)

Jules : I was so worried about you

( he gave me a tight hug , all my mind and my soul was focused on him that I almost forgot I was in a Lamborghini. The hug lasted for about 30 whole minutes, I could feel his warm breath right round my neck , I felt so safe in his arms, I didn't want to let go. James was smelling nice and as usual he had applied his expensive perfume, his car was smelling nice as well ..By the way I had never been in a Lamborghini before , all thanks to James this was my first time.

James: Ok babe hwu

Jules : well I'm good now

James : wait , what was happening ?

Jules: like seriously James? You weren't picking my calls, let alone returning my texts and you ask me what was happening ?

James : babe I'm sorry , I was a little tied up with work today and I also had to accompany my little sis and my mom to the airport

Jules: you could have told me, I was getting worried

James : I'm sorry my lady

Jules: so you couldn't even get a minute to say hie?

James : babe

Jules ; its okay , anyways where were they going?...and I didn't know you had a little sister

James : Germany , she got a scholarship there and my mom runs her businesses there

Jules : But you said you had no parents

James: (shocked)ooh did i? Actually growing up, she was our nanny , she took care of us like her own and when our parents passed she continued doing the same, she never got married since then that's why I prefer calling herb mom because she is like one to us.

Jules : ooow that's so sweet ey (was almost tearing up)

James: She is so sweet , I love her(and he starteddriving)

Jules: where to now ?

James : to get your new skirt

Jules: but that's not the way, hold up ..how do you know that I was going to get a skirt?

James: Arielle told me everything. By the way we are not going to collect it from her house but at my work place

Jules : ooow , thanks thanks thanks..

People from my street were giving us weird looks so James quickly drove the car. The Lamborghini maneuvered towards Avondale road where his company's main branch was.I was terrified at first ., I have never been in a Lamborghini before but believe me the ride was amazing , I enjoyed every bit of it and vowed to buy myself one someday. We arrived at his store in Avondale and James the gentleman came to open the door for me. People were staring and snaping at the Lamborghini and I felt so uncomfortable to come out of the car , therefore I told James that I was staying inside.

James: kkk don't tell me you are shy my lady ,lets go babe

Jules:ooow c'mon , people are snapping pics I don't want to end up circulating on the main page , you go

James: But we need your measurements

Jules: ouch

James; kkk its okay , I already know your size my lady..i know everything about you so you don't have to worry just stay in there

Jules: Are they going to make it now?

James: It won't take time , they will have to leave everything they are doing and focus on my chick 's skirt.

Jules:(I just blushed)

James:(closing the car door)I love you, see youshortly

JULES

James left me in the car blushing and smiling. I started checking out the car and snapping selfies in there, oow it felt so good to be in a Lamborghini. As I was checking out the car, I saw a small gift bag in the dash board , curiosity killed me and I opened the gift bag , inside the was a letter and a grey cozy hood .I stretched it out , it was very cute and unique I even thought of trying it out but fear of being caught stopped me . I then chose to read the letter and it wrote "I'm not good with words but just know that I love you and fancy you very much my beloved , you're too beautiful , sometimes I don't even believe that you belong to me, well you don't but you are going to. I used to be confused in all my previous relationships but now I'm certain , I don't have any doubt and I'm pretty sure you are the one .I used to fancy money more than love but for you I will give up every single penny just to be with you.. you are the one I love you and the one I will love for the rest of my life" ... my phone vibrated before I could even finish reading the letter and it was a message fromArielle.

Arielle: did you see James?

Jules; yes thanks drumstick

Arielle: words means nothing to me baby girl , buy me pizza on your way back

Jules: whatever

Arielle: ooh have almost forgotten, did Muntu text you?

Jules; of course that bitch had the guts to message me after all he has done

Arielle: He is truly sorry though, I think his apology is genuine

Jules : I know , talking of which , I forgot to reply him let me now , see you tomorrow

Arielle: bye bye bitch, I need a pair of Gucci shoes on my anniversary tomorrow, remember you are rich your hubby owns a company(teasingly)

Jules : hahahah bye drummy

After texting Arielle , I went on Muntu 's chat to reply him. He was even active

Jules : hey Muntu , I've heard you and I'm glad everything you just said seems to be coming from the heart , I'm also glad that you recognized your mistakes..anyways how are you?

Muntu: woo after a long wait thought you were just going to bluetick me forever ,anyways I'm glad you replied ..I'm good how is everything ?

Jules: cool ey

Muntu: and your boyfriend?

Jules : He is okay , how is your gf and what's her name again?

Muntu: lee , she is okay but she flew to Germany today for her studies

Jules ; Ouh , so long distance relationship then?

Muntu : I guess so

Jules : ok chat later Mr bae is back
