Previously on the THE BETRAYAL: Episode 34 Unguided Actions
...“Baby don't talk like that, Benjamin loves you very much, he just reacted as he should. Relax he will come back to make peace” she assured, “what if he dosen't” I asked, “then you go yourself and beg him, you have legs don't you?” she replied and winked at me, “anyway I don't think Benjamin can last a day without you” she concluded while I shrugged.
We argued and debated about Mike, Ben and how to settle my problems throughout that morning till 11:30AM when we heard a steady knock on my door which interrupted us.
Amara quickly answered my door and froze when she saw who was knocking. She slowly walked backwards like someone possessed by an evil power.
My face instantly coloured. I gasped and swallowed hard when I saw Mike confidently walk into my room with a steady smile. But before I could recover from the shock, Amara quickly regained herself and pushed him ferociously with an energy I never have seen in her.
Her push took him by surprise, and sent him staggering backwards towards the open door. Amara pushed again and again until he was out of my room without much resistance. She quickly locked my door with great speed and rested her body on it as she gasped for breath.
I really was totally stunned, and surprised at the great stunt she pulled. I stared at her gratefully for some minutes and breathed deeply, “God please give me the type of mind, strength and courage Amara has” I prayed?.
“That guy really is something else, imagine the arrogance, the smile and the way he carried himself, God” Amara muttered and fell on my bed. “do you think your action will stop him?” I asked with a smile, “of course not, what I did was just a temporary measure, stopping him permanently is in your hands, just like you did to Darlington” she replied, “but I think you should first apologize and sort out your differences with Benjamin, before having anything to do with that rascal, or else you will be adding more salt to your problems” she lectured, “imagine allowing him into your room and Benjamin shows up in the process” she added.
A shiver ran through me as i imagined it all, “you are right dear, I will settle with Benjamin this evening” I assured her.
Mike knocked on my door for hours and left when he realised nothing would make us open the door for him.
Amara later left for her own room. I bathed, wore a sexy gown, sprayed perfume all over my body and went over to Benjamin's room.
He allowed me into his room without saying anything. I smiled laid on his bed and stared at him. He sat on his rug and backed me, focusing his eyes on the TV screen, even though I knew his mind was somewhere else. “I'm sorry” I quietly apologized and touched his right shoulder.
He kept quiet and ignored me. “you know me better dear and you know the last thing I will ever do is to cheat on you, not with my ex, not with anyone” I prayed, “I don't know you anymore” he muttered coldly.
I breathed deeply, climbed down from the bed and sat beside him on the floor, “dear look into my eyes and repeat that comment, I won't disturb you again if you repeat it” I dared him calmly.
He looked into my eyes momentarily before looking away. I smiled and heaved a sigh of relief, “I still have much control over him” I acknowledged.
I gently kissed him, cutting off his tirade. For a brief instant, he resisted, then sighed, “it wounds me when you act like this” I murmured, “isn't there something you need to tell me?” he asked curiously.
I looked away and played the feminine stunt. Tears fell from my eyes and I began to cry. He instantly clasped me to his chest, hugging and caressing me. “ssh” he soothed, “it's over, everything is alright”
I smiled in my mind. Searched his face as I probed for equivocation, but encountered none, which ultimately made me accept his pledge to be genuine. He kissed me tenderly, “problem solved” I breathed deeply and murmured to myself.
My dearest Benjamin is the most gullible guy I have ever met, and it really was so because he loved me with all his heart.
“why are you smiling?” I soon heard him ask. But I didn't reply because I was busy planning my next line of action, which was stopping Mike from disturbing me.
I felt uneasy thinking about it as if I knew my downfall was approaching? “please my love don't ever mistrust me again” I whispered pleadingly into his ear, minutes after the s*x.
He swiftly turned and stared into my eyes with the cutiest smile ever “it won't happen again dear” he promised and kissed my wet lips. I smiled gratefully, played with his left ear for a while before playfully pinching his jaw,
