Not Human Episode Fifteen

                     Episode Fifteen
Not long after Baba's grand kids were in then later Baba. That night at dawn after I tugged maself to bed. I heard footsteps crawl around the compound. But I couldn't let maself up. Then I felt someone enter ma room. It was too dark to make out who that was. So I slowly reached for a walking stick Baba gave to me to aid in ma recovery,and armed maself with it,waiting for the person to draw closer.
    "Manasseh 're u awake?" A soft female voice whispered. "Akos is that u? "I asked whiles I placed the stick down beside ma bed. "Ye...yes..."she replied as she slowly moved closer to ma bed. "What's wrong?"I asked. "Errmmm...Am..I had a nightmare....I can't sleep...ma room is too dark...Am scared...And...and..."she stammered before I snapped in "no problem u can spend the night here with me. Ma bed is big enough to contain us both."I suggested as I shifted to a side of ma bed to create space for her.
  "Oh its ok,I'll sleep on the floor"she said. "Come on Akosua,don't be silly. Why sleep on the floor when there is a bed right here. You could get sick you know. You could get Pneumonia and its very cold too,that might give u a flu or something so come on,and lay down here." I said,bampin ma hand on the space on the bed I wanted her to sleep on. I couldn't really see her well in the dark but I felt her lay down beside me.  With that I covered her with ma blanket to keep her warm. "Do u think about Maa Rose sometimes"she asked a few minutes later. "Yea,I used to, all the time but I stopped" I replied. "Why?"she asked. "I found someone else to occupy ma thoughts with" I replied. "Oh....but do u still love Maa Rose?"she asked. "No,I don't " I replied. "Ah,why? Is it because she abandoned and divorced?"she asked. I laughed at her question a few rounds before I replied " Yea,both. And her character slowly killed my love for her too". "Hmmm ok. And will you forgive her if she comes back begging?"she asked. "Well...well...forgiveness is Gud for the soul. Forgiving those who hurt us easily cleanses our hearts and soul. It makes us clean before God. Plus God forgives us for our sins and expects us to forgive others who wrong us as well. So yes,I'll forgive her. But I won't take her back. Cause I don't love her anymore" I replied. "Ok....and this new person occupying your thoughts...do u love her?"she asked. "Hahaha...where from this hot interrogation?...well Yea...I love her. Her personality,character...everything. I love her young heart as well. And....i believe she somehow feels the same for me.Tho emotions can't be touched or seen, I look at her and I see the presence of her love for me all around her smiles,the way she looks at me and treats me. Even her touch alone proves it" I said as I turned towards her. I heard her swallow hard,I heard her heart beat rapidly. I could tell she knew wat or who I was talking about.
