It’s been three day since maxwell talked with amara, he was upset about the replied he got from amara. He traveled back to lagos where his mother is staying to cool his head for a while,he was inside his room browsing on his computer when his mother knocked on the door.

Maxwell :come in, the door it not lock (his mother entered )hi mum
Mrs ada m smiling )you and this your laptop (she sat down on this bed)can I have a word with you.

Maxwell :sure (close the laptop )
Mrs ada m:maxwell tell me ,are you okay
Maxwell confused )I don’t understand the question
Mrs ada m:since you came back from port -Harcourt I have been observing you and I noticed something is wrong with you so tell me what is the matter.
Maxwell was not use in keeping any thing from his mother, to him his mother was his best friend,he spend more time with his mother more then any one else.
Maxwell :you are right mum everything is not okay with me
Mrs ada m:so what is the matter
Maxwell :it’s amara,she won’t just understand me,i have tried so hard for her to see reasons with me but it’s not working out.
Mrs ada m:you have told her about your intention
Maxwell :i have and all she could tell me is that she only have a brotherly love for me
Mrs ada m:when was this.
Maxwell :few days ago,I called her to let her know how I feel about her but she turned me down.
Mrs ada m:and I know you haven’t called her since then cause you are angry with her.
Maxwell :yes mum.
Mrs ada m:that’s wrong,if you need something you need to work hard for it,you don’t expect her to say yes at once,come one she is a lady and have her pride to protect, try and call her or better till go and see her and talk things over with her,if you sit here down and explain better she will understand you and in no time she will come around, can you do that.

Maxwell key I will try.

Mrs ada ,:that’s much better, so cheer up ,okey I will you now to continue with what you were doing (she got up)
Maxwell :alright mum thanks

Chidi went to see amara at her house and found her with a small travelling bag,he was surprised.
Chidi:where are you going

Chidi:your parents live in the village, you never told me
Amara :you never asked
Chidi :sorry, you mean you grow up in the village.
Amara :what, you don’t like a village girl
Chidi :no not that,you don’t look like a village girl to me,am just saying.

Chidi:so when will you be coming back
Amara :i don’t know for now but I know i won’t spend up to a week,you know i need to help my parents with somethings
Chidi :so if I haven’t met you now I couldn’t have know you were travelling and you call me your friend
Amara :well that’s because I don’t have your contact
Oh I forgot to mention, chidi and amara were always around each other but they don’t have each other numbers well I know you will be wondering how come, chidi always knows the time she leaves the house and go to meet her in her class after lectures, he was playing a gentle guy and probably forgot asking her for her digit, how does that sound.
Chidi smiled )are you asking me for my number
Amara :please stop it am just saying .
Chidi:well you are right why don’t you give me your number
Amara :your phone
Chidi brought out his phone from his side pocket and handed it to Amara, she took it and type her number on the phone then gave it back to chidi,he collected his phone looked at the number and smiled, in his mind he knows his plans are working
Chidi:hope it not a wrong number
Amara laughed )no and how can I give you a wrong number, is that what you think of me
Chidi :just kidding, I will give you a call later today
Amara key no problem
Chidi :let me be nice and drop you at the motor park (help her with the bag)
Amara :thanks
Amara got to the motor park and boarded a bus going to improve state, after some hours she arrived at her village, she had to take a taxi that will take her to her house, when she arrived she found no one at home she tried calling her mum but the number was not going through, she went inside dropped her bags and went outside to wait for then, it was close to an hour but yet none of them has returned just then it occurred to her that her mother might be at the farm, she then decided to go to the farm to check on her getting there she found her mother standing at the side of the farm, cassava were planted on the farm .
Amara :mama
