Clara sat on her bed with her laptop on her laps waiting patiently for a friend of hers to come online on a video chat.
"Hi David! " She greeted as soon as her expected friend came online.
"Hello Darlin'. How is Nigeria? " David asked.
"Nigeria is cool. Really cool. How is the states? I heard it's kind of cold this season"
"Yeah that's right. It's really cold. I feel really warm chatting with you"
"O! That's romantic. I really feel cold here "
"I really miss you. I can't wait for us to get married and bring you back here" she smiled and looked away for a while. Her mind wandered to the incident that occurred a month ago with Christian. "Are you okay? "
"Yes... "
"You didn't reply me. Why are you making this chat dry? "
"Sorry. I miss you too" She replied with no sincerity in her tone.
"You seem to be tired. We can chat up later dear"
"No need. We can chat on"
"I can see you are tired. Send me a goodnight kiss instead "
"Come on. Fine just disconnect already"
"Send me a kiss first..."
"Look David. I really have to sleep now"
"Come on. You really have to"
"Look, after marriage there will be lots of time for that but for now I will like my privacy. Hope you understand "
"Promise? "
"Promise"
"Good night " She nodded without giving a reply. As soon as the video chat ended, she had shut her laptop with a sigh. He was a nice guy. A really nice guy but she wasn't interested in him. She had tried. She had really tried to give her heart to him but nothing worked. She couldn't. She still liked Chris. She still had feelings for him. He was fun to be with. She recalled the first time she had met him during her childhood days. He was really annoying. Very annoying but he was cute too. She never cared about his poor grammar, in fact she found it fun and fascinating. She saw it as a mere joke. She wasn't sure why she was that way but she'd knew she was ready to give Chris a chance if he ask her out. She was very much ready.

The day of the engagement arrived. Chris lay flat on his bed unconsciously staring at his watch repeatedly. There was 30 minutes left.
"No, stop this Chris. You are not going" He said to himself with a reluctant look.
"Dear I don't want to get engaged to him. I have married you Chris. I don't want to get married" He's hear a voice behind him. He recognized the voice. Staring behind him, he got astonished seeing Clara this time in a peach colored engagement gown looking so beautiful in it. She had tears in her eyes. Real tears. He shut his eyes tightly knowing this was a trick his mind was playing.
"Leave my head! Go get married"
"I love you Chris. Don't you get it"
"GO AWAY! AHHHH! "
