Chapter 35 My First Love
A minute later a knock came on the door and I invited the person in and a lady entered.
" Good morning" she said.
" Morning, please be seated" I offered and she sat down.
" What can I offer you?" I asked.
" No sir, I'm fine. I just came here in need of your help" she said.
" Of course, anything just ask away" I said.
" Can you please drop the charges against Fortunate?" She said and I got confused.
" Okay, I think I'm lost here. are you referring to the same lady you helped us arrest?" I asked.
" Yes Sir" she confirmed.
" Why?, who is she to you?" I asked.
" She's my roommate and we've been living together for some years now, we are more like sisters" she said.
" Oh now I see" I said.
" I know what she did was wrong but she did all because of her obsession for you, I'm not trying to justify what did but please help her" she said.
" Uhm... Miss..."
" It's Cynthia" she said.
" Alright Cynthia, I know you're trying to help your friend here but I can't do what you're asking of me" I said.
" Please Sir, there should be something you can do, I can't help but feel like I betrayed a friend because I really did" she said.
" Listen to me Cynthia. you didn't betray her, you exposed her ... it's her fault that she turned out the way she did not yours" I said.
" Actually Sir, it's my fault" she said.
" What do you mean?" I asked.
" You can't understand Sir" she said.
" Look here, whatever it is...don't blame yourself, actually you did helped her because right now she's facing a kidnapping charge" I said.
" Sir, please you can just drop the case...don't let her go to jail" she pleaded.
" I'm sorry Cynthia, this is beyond me now...I alone don't have a say in this, and I'm very sure my wife will never agree to that" I said and she broke down in tears.
" Listen Cynthia, you tried okay. you've helped her as a good friend that you are, you prevented her from being a murderer" i said.
" Don't blame yourself, look I'm not promising but I see if I can make them lessen the sentence" I said and she nodded.
" I have to go now" she said standing up.
" Thank you Cynthia, for everything... you're a good friend" I said.
" Thank you sir"
" Are you sure you don't need anything else?" I asked.
" No sir, that will be all" she said then head out.
Even if I wanted to help I can't not after she tried to have my wife killed all in the name of love.
I think she's really insane to go that length just to have me, she should know that I'm married now and I belong to Bella and Bella alone.
Bella's POV

" Hello dear" Frank said over the phone.
" Hi Frank" I said.
" How are you doing?" He asked.
" I'm fine, thank you for letting me come here. It's indeed a relief" I said.
" It's okay...I know you needed it, and I'm glad I could help" he said.
" I miss you Bella, the house is too silent without you" he added and I smiled.
" I'll be back in few days" I replied.
" Well I can't wait to see you, hope you're enjoying yourself" he said.
" Yeah very much, I'm about to head to the bar to have a drink" I said.
" Hmm, having all the fun to yourself huh" he said and I chuckled.
" Don't worry, I'll make it up to you" I said.
" Alright then, hope no one is hitting on you?" He asked again Making me smile.
" Well, not yet" I said and I heard him gasped.
" Are you seriously expecting them to hit on you?"
" Just kidding besides the ring on my finger is quite obvious" I said smiling.
" Well if they did which I know they will because you're just too beautiful for anyone to ignore"
" if any man tried to approach you, don't forget to wave your wedding ring at them" he said and I smiled.
" Are you jealous?" I asked.
" Of course I am, having a gorgeous woman like you makes me the luckiest person in the universe so I'm allowed to be jealous" he said.
" Alright"
" I have to go now, I'll call you later Okay. Love you"
" Alright bye" I said then ended the call.
It's been two days now since I came to this resort to rest and clear my head.
I've decided to stop being too harsh on Frank especially now that I know he loves me, he's been really nice.
Since the day I came here he called three to four times in a day just to know how I'm doing and to be truthful I miss him also.
When I was kidnapped I was praying and hoping in my heart that Frank should come to save me and he did.
When Fortunate was telling me how Frank ditch her for me makes me more happy and I know I'm starting to develop a feeling for him.
Actually it's one of the reason I came here alone, to know and confirm if it's actually a feeling or just normal likeness.
I went out of my room and went to the bar of the hotel then find a spot and sat down.
" Give me something to drink" I requested.
" What will you have?" The barman said.
" Wine, white wine" I said.
" Alright" he said then brought it out and pour it in a glass for me and I started drinking.

I was still drinking when I noticed a man came to sit beside me.
" Hi" the man said but I ignored without looking at his face, The voice sounds familiar though but I ignored still.
" Hi, I'm Dave" he said offering his hand for a handshake but I ignored.
" Hi, I'm busy and if you don't mind I'd like to alone" I said.
" Wow, I see you never change... you're still the same Bella Richmond in high school" he said and I looked up.
I was shocked with who I saw and I don't believe he's actually the one.
" C'mon Bella, don't tell me you've forgotten me so quickly" he said.
" No it can't be...it can't be you" I said still surprised.
" Well it's me Bella" he said.
" Dave" I said excitedly and hugged him.
" Oh my God Dave, it's really you" I said.
