The Last Night
Tola and Ben's relationship started right from when they met at the schools cafeteria. One look at her and Ben knew she was the one who would carry his children. He wasted no time in approaching Tola and it even took shorter time for him to realize she felt the same way too.
They dated throughout their four years in school. Their relationship was so strong that their friends even called them husband and wife. By the time they both were done with the university, Ben had no doubt that she was the one he would be getting married to, he just needed to get a good paying job first.
One night, he received a call from Tola asking if he was at home because she wanted to come spend the night. Ben agreed and she came over. That night while they made love, Tola had been a little bit different on the bed. She was a little bit more aggressive than usual, it was almost as if she was trying to get as much of Ben as she could. Ben didn't ask her where the new energy came from because he loved it.
The next day, she had woken up early and left his place. She didn't say anything to him while leaving and Ben didn't hear from her again until two days later when a friend of his back from the school days called him.
"Bro, if anyone had told me that you would break up with Tola, I wouldn't have believed it" the friend had said to a confused Ben over the phone.
Ben tried explaining to him that him and Tola hasn't broken up yet and that she was just at his place a few days ago and that was when he received the news that almost shattered his heart. Tola had just posted a video of her traditional marriage that just took place a day ago.
Ben was confused and tried to call her but her number wasn't reachable. He watched the video multiple times as tears flowed down his cheeks. The love of his life had left him but not without saying goodbye, he just didn't know that the last night they were together was the last night they were going to be together.
