WHAT IF SHE KNEW?
He wakes up this morning to a beautiful euphony. His dick stiff and his bones aching from last night's Happy Hour duty.
It's a Sunday morning, Asa is playing over the radio; Subway, an eccentric melody that feeds the soul and soothes everything it touches.
As he stretches and turns to his side, he sees Angela lying beside him. Last night was one of a kind, they couldn't get any sleep, thankfully this time, it hadn't been one of their fights.
He sits silent for a while, watching her chest rise and fall in easy breathing, her dark curls covering most part of her face and her fingers twitch slightly, then settle down again as she sighs in her sleep. 'She's so beautiful when she's not nagging, ' he thinks as he tucks her hair behind her ear, and a beautiful smile tinges her cheek.
Really, she is pretty and she takes his breath away.
He leans forward, his fingers in between hers and he presses a kiss against her temple. There, the memory of last night dinner flashes behind his eyelids.
"I am happy I met you"
She had told him amidst their meshed lips, He couldn't help but smile.
For a moment, he marvels at the thought of that moment and right there, a painful twitch bites in his chest.
WHAT IF SHE KNOWS?
The gravely thought sends shivers down his spine and his heart clenches in fear.
WHAT IF SHE FINDS OUT?
He had laid with Segun the same way he lays with her now and several other mornings.
A sick feeling spreads to his limbs, a soreness that makes his skin quiver. Every sound is suddenly too loud, Subway is no longer soul-soothing and his heart won't stop rattling in his chest.
Most mornings are like this for him, cold and sad. He wakes up every morning with a huge ball of guilt in his stomach. This feeling of everything being wrong and knowing that it's all his fault.
But this never happens with Segun. Mornings with Segun are beautiful and gentle. His heart radiates only of happiness and immense joy and the air smells of truth and freedom.
WHAT IF SHE FINDS OUT?
Neither He nor his Story is straight?
His heart tightens again, tears gather at the shores of his eyes and the air in the room suddenly smells stale and heavy.
What if she knows Segun calls him "Obi'm" too?
How come she doesn't know anything?
How did she not know he was wearing a different pair of trousers last night?
How come she didn't see the trousers were different from what he had left in that morning?
What if she knows he had had to rush here, not from work but from him?
He sat up straight, arms curled up on his laps. His eyes fixed on Angela, taking her in as the morning light flickers over her lips and cheek.
What if she knows it was Segun's trousers?
What if she finds out they had just finished, both of them still scattered on the bed, buck naked after a hot Happy Hour section when her call came in.
What if she knows he enjoys it better with Segun
What if she knows he had lied he remembers it was their 4th anniversary yesterday.
What if she knows it was their 7th-anniversary last month
Wait, What happens when she finds out he likes boys, will she still be glad she met him?
But what if she gets to know and understands that he couldn't help it, could that even be possible?
What if?
He lays back on the bed, pulls the covers over his cheek and stares blankly into the clock on his nightstand that claims the time is already ten o’clock.
Asa is still playing over the radio, filling the air.
"_I have waited patiently_"
"And this is what I get?"__
"....
"_My mama say baby be careful_
If any body comes to say I love you_"
"_My papa say baby I warn you_
If anybody comes to say I love you_"
"_Now you asking me to trust you_
Tell me how am I supposed to_"
"_When I know this love don't last_"
"_Could this be the kind of love_
That my mum use to warn me about?_"
"_How will I know that this love will last?.....
"....._"
All of a sudden, The voice syncing with the beautiful melody over the radio now sounds like Angela questioning him.
"Dray, will this love last?"
Never Deny, You won't be hurting just yourself when you do. There's no safe way or careful way about it. A lie is a lie.

This is really beautiful, sad and relatable. Hopefully when she finds out, this doesn't become an episode of "How To Get Away With Murder."
😂😂😂😂
I really can't say what is or what not.
But personally, I doubt anybody esp. A lady, will submit to an understanding on this. This is very unfair. No one deserves this. But then again, if we look at it from the guy's perspective will probably end up finding out that he had no choice and was pressured by his immediate environment and family.
