Chapter 42 Date me

Why the long face? Patrick

 ask Gina when she entered

the house.

    " Patrick am really tired of all this."

“Tired of all what?”

“Ken,”

“They’ve still not find him?”

“That is not it.”

“Then what?”

“He is back and now he can’t

remember me, is that even possible?

“And why is that?”

“Are you asking me?

“Then something must be

wrong. Patrick said.

“They said he lost his memory

after the crash and couldn’t

remember anyone, but after

the operation was done on

 him, he only remembered his

family and friend but me, hell no,

I am the only one Ken seem not

 to remember , can you imagine

 that? She start crying.

Patrick had no choice but to

hold her and console her.

   "Just be patient with him, he

 may come around.

   "Patrick am done been patient

with him, why did I even love him?"

   "Stop crying" Patrick pet Gina

 for hours.

   "You know what?  Patrick and

done with Ken let him just go."

   "Don’t say that, maybe he can’t

really remember you, give him

more time."

   "You see, that is the problem,

I don’t have more time to give

 to him."

   'So what are you planning to

do now?"

   "Am saying  yes to you."

   "What? Did I hear you right.?

   "Patrick you heard me, am saying

yes to your proposal that is if it

still stands."

   "I.. I.. I… please Gina lets not do

this ok, I mean you need to take

 your time."

   "What time did you need Patrick?

You’ve known me for like ages,

what more time do you know.?"

   "I know but is not that easy you

know."

   "Ohh.. so you didn’t mean it when

 you said you love me?, ok I get it"

she got up to go.

   "Please Gina wait."

   "Is fine, am sorry for hitting on

you like that."

   "Gina please just listen to me, I

love you so much, but I can’t just

be someone you will use to escape

 from Ken."

   "What are you saying?"

   "I mean, what if ken comes back?

What will happen to me?"

   "Just forget it ok, I see you later.

She went home and thought

 about the whole thing."

Patrick is right, what if Ken comes

 back and said he was pranking her.

No way, that can’t be a prank,

something has change ken can’t

tell me that he lost his memory

 and after recovering he only

 remembered his family and

friends without remembering

me. No something is not right,

ken have another woman yes,

he is keeping away from me,

that is the only reason he would

 behave that way.

I need Charity, even thought I

don’t like her that much, she

 knows how to calm me down.

Hello charity are you free?

What now?

I just want to hangout with you,

is that a problem?

Not yet a problem until I see you.

Is that a yes.

It is,

Yes! Thank you charity am coming.

So why are you so happen to see

 me, I thought you are avoiding

 me.

Am not avoiding you , I was just

busy.

   "Yea, busy and who in this world

 will be busy without her PA

knowing about it?

   "Fine, you win am sorry ok, can

 we just drop that.?

   "Ok, so what brings you to

 my house.?

“I just want to unwind”

   "Ok, let's go to the club?"

   "No, can’t we just drink at your

 place?

   "We can, if you buy the drinks,

   "Fine I will buy"

   "Forget it, I have some drinks

 in the fridge."

   "Thank you Gina said happily."

   "Now tell me why you want to

 drink yourself to death because

 I don’t want to be in the police

custody because of you and will

you stop drinking? She takes the

 bottle away from Gina."

   "Please give it to me I just want

 to drink."

   "Ok tell me all about it."

   "Is Ken?"

   "What happen to him, is he

 dead?"

   "No, he is very much alive

fu..king another bi..ch..

   "Ohh…. Gross take it easy girl,

you’re almost throwing up."

  "Yea, who cares.?"

   "Ok, I get it now, Ken is back and

 he is screwing another girl and

 you are here drinking yourself

to death. I understand it all."

But you will do me a favor I stop

 crying, I mean I hate girls who

cry over a man damnit."

   "What do you want me to do?.

   "You go and screw another man

 bitch… Charity yell at Gina."

   "I’ve never slept with another

man before only Ken."

   "And that is your problem, when

I tell girls to get up to five to seven

 guys to screw your ass they say

 am a bad girl, but who cares?

Gina was just looking at Charity

with her mouth wide open.

   "Five to seven? What a number."

   "Yea, look at you now crying over

Ken, as for me I don’t cry over men,

do you hear me.?

   "Yes, Gina nod her head as if

 taking instructions from her

mother.

   "Get yourself another man period."

   "Who will I get? Gina ask.

   "Come, this girl, don’t come here

asking me stupid questions just go

out there and get yourself a man."

   "I told Patrick to date me today?

But he said no.*

   "OMG, this girl you are just an

asshole, how can you tell a man

 to date you?

   "Yea there is nothing wrong with

 that."

   "Really? so how do you feel when

he said no to you.?

   "Well, I felt a little embarrass, but

is ok, I see reasons with him."

   " You know what? Your heart will

 always be broken trust me. Men

are all assholes, they need strong

 women who will not always say

 yes to all their demands."

   "Hmmm, I see, please help me

 to be strong as you Gina

begged Charity.

   "you know what? We are going

to the club tonight to get a man

 for you."

   "Must it be in the club? Is there

 no other place we can find a man?

   "Ohh.. sorry, I forgot you are a

virgin, we will go to the church

then and get you a pastor if that’s

ok with you."

  Gina just roll her eyes at Charity,

fine, let’s go to the club but, I will

choose a man for myself."

   "Do I look like a matchmaker?"

Charity ask.

 Patrick could not take the thought

 of what Gina said out of his mind,

did she mean that? Or is she

 trying to use him, no but that

will be the best thing that will

happen to him if he can have his

 chance with her.

Should I call her and say I have

given it a thought and am will to

 date her? No wait.. just wait.. let

 me see how things are going first.

No just call her now, he keeps

 fighting with his thoughts.

Hello, Gina where are you.

Am at Charity’s place.

Ok can I see you? I mean I have

 given it a thought and I will like

 us to start dating.

Really?

Yes.

Ok, I will see you when I come

 back from Charity’s place.

Ok bye, he hag-up the phone, yes!

Yes!! I will finally have the

 opportunity to show her how

 much I love her.

He started planning ways to

 please her, I will first take her

shopping they we will go see the

 movies, yes the movies, I’ve been

 wanting to go to the movies with

 her but that ken was always

 come between me and Gina.

So are you planning to date

 Patrick now?

But that’s what you want me

to do,

Yea, I want you to date other men

aside from Ken, but I also know

 that you can’t play the game.

What game? Gina ask.

The Game of double dating.

And who says I want to double

date?

That is what you are about to

 do, double dating.

“I don’t get you. Gina said.”

“You have not ended things with

 Ken, and now you want to date

 Patrick, which if you ask me is

a suicide mission because both

 men love you. When I said you

should get a man to screw you, I

didn’t a man that love you.”

“You are getting me confuse.”

“These men love you and you know

 it, if you date Patrick now and then

 ken later got his memory about

 you back then there is going to be

 a serious fight between them,

and your father will not take it

lightly with you, do you want that?

No,

“good so you will do as I say,

don’t date Patrick at least not for

 now. Lets wait and see if Ken will

remember you and treat you the

way you want him to treat you.

And if he is not coming around

the you can go ahead and date

Patrick,

But Patrick just call, you were

 her when he called right?

Yea, that is because you don’t

think before acting, now you have

 to bear the consequences of

 your actions.

I don’t get you, you are sounding

 like is a serious thing.

To you is not serious but I tell you,

to Patrick it is.
