EPISODE 8

Hmmmm...how many of such ladies do we have in this world?
I admired her from a far distance as we worked. She would greet and smile to anybody she came across? I just hope she is not a prerender.
This went on for several months.
She would sometimes take me out for lunch. People thought we had something to do. How I wish.
She was a 'No go zone' for me. A highly respected lady like this is neither my class nor match.
My boss would always come around to call her if they needed anyone to do a presentation on behalf of the workers. There was no single day she ever flopped in her presentations. This is what we call a woman.

How I wish she would give me the chance to prove my love to her.
I have absolutely nothing on me to to even take her out on a shopping spree. Hmmm..I need to figure out something very fast.
Day in day out, I would lie on my bed and think of a way out. Did she want to tell me she wasn't seeing my effort or what? Can't she read through the lines? For me to wake up always and  check on her meant a lot.
Was she that dumb or what? I was gradually getting tired but not fed up. There was no way I could be fed up.
My happy and lonely moments turned to be full of sorrows. Every man has his secret sorrows which the world knows not; and often times we call a man cold when he is only sad. You can also choose to call me cold for all I care.
When you are sorrowful, look again in your heart and you shall see that in truth, you are weeping for that which has and will always be your delight.

Achiaa is my delight. She would be a marriageable material. Did I just talk about marriage?
Even money to pay my utility bill, I had to call home or better still, use some dubious means to get money from Achiaa. How then would I get the means to marry her?
I just hope this is not mere fantasy. I have to get Achiaa at all cost. If it didn't work for Esparanza, there must be a way out here. At least, kissing her would bring heavens down. O God, help me. It's just one thing I ask of you Lord. Grant me the wish of kissing her or holding her tightly,  and I will forever worship and serve you.
