Leaving town was the best option I could ever think of. Mama always told me to forgive and forget but this is different.
Rebecca has always been the girl my heart yawn for. Although most of the times I knew she might be into another guy, I still felt that her heart was right here with me. What I haven't done; gold earrings, vacations, expensive Gucci collections, mansion of her own.....you named a few.
These things I bought because I truly loved her.

My mother often told me to slow down on my business travels but I refute her claims. I told her that I gat to work harder for more money to be able to cater for my beau but this was a blinded mistake on my part. I never knew that the more busy I becomes, the more farther Rebecca would be.

What really broke me was this... One particular evening , I felt the urge to surprise her by not telling that I would be coming home. On my getting there, I heard a moan upstairs. bam!..she was having an affair with a man. my best friend.

The death of Mustapher Ibrahim, my once best friend was a terrible mistake. Although I wished him death but not on my hands. I was too angry to think. I just couldn't imagine Rebecca playing me for a fool. For her, I m now a convicted murderer. A runaway criminal. I guess mom was right all along....'never trust no one...not even yourself'.
