BREATHLESS I
She said she’d never want to be in a serious relationship
She dint like what she was seeing and hearing all over
Marriage was the very last thing on her mind
To her, life was too short to worry; “don’t stress it, she’d
say, Life is too short”.
She liked to relax and have fun, making the best out of life
“Relationships come
with a lot of ‘wahala’ (trouble)”.
That’s one of the quotes she responded with anytime her
friends asked her if she had started dating.
Little by little, unknown to her, love crept up her heart
She was all smiles and laughter when around him
She thought it was just the joy of friendship
Till he told her he liked her too
She was uncertain about him though, whether or not he was
taken
She asked him several times and he said he was single
Her friends encouraged her to go ahead and date him if she
was love-struck cos he seemed cool
Emily was quite uncertain cos of the age difference; she
thought him too young but what the hell, he was a year older; he should be
mature enough not to cause unnecessary stress.
They decided to give it a try and how ecstatic she was,
grinning all over as he kissed the breath out of her.
She told herself never to put her heart into a relationship
but this time she did and she loved every bit of it.
