Hello readcashers. This is @Sek-man.

Nice to meet you all here. This is actually my first article on readcash using this account. I'm originally @Her-bert here on readcash but unfortunately I was not using that account for a while so I think It has been spammed. If anyone can help me on unspamming it, I would be really grateful. Now let's dive into the world of romantic stories just for my dear readers on read.cash. This is a very interesting story to be frank. You will love it. More like an experience to me though. Love is really strange but nice isn't it?

The journey of a lifetime

Well Frankly speaking from experience, love can really make people do stuff that are beyond their wildest dreams. It will surely happen though, unless you haven't fallen into the heart of another that deeply. My first time falling In love was in the University, which I am currently in, KNUST(Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and Technology), the best university currently in Africa and 14th in the world in terms of quality education. Amazing right?

Sometimes you have to hit the nail on the head before things start folding up. In literal terms, you have to do the job to get the one you want. So I did the job.

So here is how the love story started....

I was in my room back in University one evening when a roommate of mine called out to me saying he was going to see some friends. Since we were all freshers and I didn't know the environs on campus, I decided to go with him.

When we got to his friends' room on campus, he called "them" saying he is around and that they should let him in. Immediately after the call, the door was opened for us to enter. Timid as I was, I didn't want to start a conversation with his friends buh oh myyyy..... I had to because that was when I met the girl of my dreams, Catherine. She was goodlooking, very affable, generous enough to offer me a seat first, which I was kind of surprised.

We had series of conversations about where we live, our culture and other stuff. The other stuff was between me and her though because my roommate figured out that I liked her so he excused us for sometime. I asked her alot of questions, especially about her "dream boy" and what she wanted him to be like. She also asked me the same question about my "dream girl". I told her without a doubt that it was her. She started giggling and her face started blushing. I was very happy seeing that reaction though. She is like a goddess that I can't take my eyes off from. We also talked about our future aspirations and made silly comments about the courses we were offering. For mine, she said since I'm doing computer science, prolly I would be fixing gadgets and phones.

Trust me. Fixing phones and gadgets is cool though. But not in Africa. It's more like because one might not have any skill in computer science, he or she will intend on fixing phones instead. This alone is not something that big enough to be called a "job" here in Africa.

For her course of study, she would be an accountant or a cashier which was kinda cool though. Buh her dream was bigger than this. To become a full time Actuary. That was a cool idea too.

I went ahead asking her if she has been in a relationship. She said she hasn't been In any so far.

I was surprised myself. Because I kept on asking in my mind as to why such a beautiful girl like this isn't in a relationship. Well this gave me a spark of hope because I was interested in her.

My friend came back and at that time my friend and I had to leave so I told her I would be taking my leave. She said I should come and visit another time. And I sure did. But something happened the day I visited her again which really made me sad and frustrated.

I saw her with another guy in the room when she opened the door. That wasn't the shocking part. He was on her bed, and that was the shocking part. She went to offer me some water to drink. I then sat in the room seeing her with another guy on her bed watching a movie. I couldn't stand that sight though so I told her I was taking my leave. At that instant, the guy was also taking his leave so I decided to also go. When I stood up, she asked me as to why am I leaving so early. I lied to her saying I have some stuff to do especially my assignments. So as I was heading towards the door, she held my hands and came closer to me and hugged me.

I was surprised at that scene she just created. I thought she liked that guy. She was still hugging me telling me that I shouldn't go and that she knew why I was in a hurry to go. I turned to her and asked her if that guy had anything to do with her?

She said there is nothing going on between her and the guy she watched the movie with. They are just friends. Well curiousity got me there though. She prepared something for me to eat and I was delighted 😋. The food was second to none. The best I have eaten so far. But it still cannot be compared to my mum's food. I then complemented her on the food and took my leave.

Another day to remember

Well, I'm going to tell you guys about another encounter I had with another guy who was with her holding hands and talking to each other. That day was the day I seem not to regret the things I did which made me hit the nail on the head.

I was in my room thinking about what to get her as in a gift for the food she prepared me so I bought her chocolates since chocolate is also a sign of love and affection 💝. I headed straight to her place on campus and to my outmost surprise, I saw a guy holding her hands and to me, as jealous as I was decided to go back , so I told her that I forgot something in my room and that I would be back. I gave her the chocolate though and I went back.

I fell on bed when I went back to my room and started crying. I was feeling so bad to an extent of having regrets in falling in love. I almost wounded myself till a neighbor came to my rescue. He asked me what was the problem and I told him everything. He then said that I should tell the girl how I feel towards her. If not , how would she know that I am in love with her. I was scared telling her because of the guys I also see around. They are goodlooking too and to me I had no match with them because of their status.

My neighbor encouraged me to do so or else someone else would hit the nail on the head. So I gathered up courage and had an online conversation with her since telling her face to face will make me really shy.

I told her about my feelings towards her and how much I love her. I now decided to ask her if we could date each other to know ourselves better. She paused for a minute and said that she would also like to be with me but............

At that moment, my heart was beating at the speed of light. My mind was like," She is going to break my heart after all"and that I wasn't the right person for her.

........... She isn't ready to be in a relationship for now. But she would like to be with me. Just then I heard a knock at my door. I opened it and she came right Into my arms and she hugged me. While she was still hugging, she told me that this isn't a matter we should discuss on phone and that we should talk about it now. Well I told her I was shy to say it to her directly. She then hugged me and this time, it was tight. And she said to me, "Hold me tight and never let me go". I also hugged her and she looked at me in the face and said she is ready to be in a relationship with me.

Well, the door wasn't locked though and my neighbor passed by and closed the door giving me a sign. "BRO CODE". I have finally gotten the girl of my dreams 😍😘😘😘. I just went towards the door to shut it. And well...... What happened had happened and it's in the past already though😅😅😅😅😅😅😅. If you want to know what happened, then like, comment and share too.
