Silent days, alone by myself. Suddenly, time became so slow. Everyday seemed like it had 48hrs. I wake up every morning only waiting for the day to end again... My life seemed like it had no purpose anymore.. This was all the impact of a broken heart. I spent more time in bed alone than I used to. Friends became people I just knew , trusting anyone for any reason was like walking through burning coal on an empty foot, so difficult . Every single thing reminded me of the person I once gave my heart to. Felt like I had an open wound that just wouldn't heal.

It was another boring day at school. There I was, feeling lifeless as usual. Looked up and saw 'her'. She looked so beautiful but had a gentle soul like that of a dove. Curiosity made me wonder a little bit closer. Hello, I said as I tried to introduce myself to her. She told me her name was DeeDee and we exchanged contacts . Didn't sit for too long as I didn't want it to look awkward. Went back home and the name DEEDEE was playing on repeat in my mind. It felt a little good as it took my mind off my worries. Closed my eyes, shut out the whole world, but kept seeing her pretty face, always smiling.. SUDDENLY!!!!! I heard my phone ring. Opened my eyes in a rush and I just hoped she was the one calling.... My high hopes were destroyed as it was only customer service number. I slept a little bit disappointed
The next day, I woke up so early. Was quite unlike me.. I prepared myself n rushed up to school... This was the earliest I had been in weeks. I kept on trying to find her but it was just so hard. Almost gave it all up and then I saw her in a thick crowd. Walked up to her and she gave me that warm feeling with her beautiful smile.. We started talking. As days went on, we spent more time together. Gradually she became a very important part of my life. It was as though she became one of my limbs. The fear STRUCK me again
what if she breaks your heart again?
At this point, I was already too involved to back out. It dawned on me that...
if I want to feel better, I had to take a chance..
I asked her out and of course she said yes... Butterflies filled my heart as I felt like I had filled a very big space in my heart that was gradually becoming a black hole. She was like medication to my heart break
In a few weeks we became like peanut butter and jelly, more familiar to the nigeria audience, like Akara and bread..
CONCLUSIVELY
Every one has the chance to find love again. It doesn't happen when you lay under your blanket, it happens when you're ready to step out, meet people, take chances.. Yes you might get hurt again or you just might find someone that makes u wanna live forever.. You never know until you step out..
