Goodbye
EPISODE TWENTY THREE
Theme: Goodbye
Arike’s POV
Bamidele turned to face her.
"It's not what you think..." She added.
"So what should I think?" He asked.
"It's my fault." She said.
I looked up at her. Now she wants to take all the blame.
"I was the one who pestered her to give you a chance.."
"So it was against her will to date me?"
"Kind off.." she scratched her neck.
That was partly untrue.
He shook his head. "You know what? I think this is where I have to accept the break up."
"I am sorry." I mumbled again.
"Can you stop saying sorry?!" He snapped.
"Calm down Bamidele..." Busayomi cautioned him in a soft tone. "I know you are hurting but -"
He interrupted her. "Well..I hope you have a good life abroad,Arike."
