-------------------------------------------------
Now she has no more friends, all her boyfriends, toaster, crushes and Even her relatives left and abãndõned her except David.
Though, David was a poor young guy but has a good heart. they managed and endure everything together.
Most of the time, Florida stays awake in the middle of the night weeping with her eyes full of tears. David would stay awake to console and cajoled her to sleep again.
Florida experienced several sleepless nights. She hates her body. She would looked at her body and cū.rsē the day the incident happened to her. Her skin was t3rrible and disgust!ng.
"So, all my sexy body and beauty is gone" she muttered sadly under her breath with tears rolling down her cheek
Every morning, David would take her to the bathroom, freshen her up, put on her cloth, prepare breakfast meal for her, then off to his bricklaying work
The process went for months and It hasn't been easy for David
Most of the time, David would arrive home with no Money or little because those day wãsn't a gōöd day for him
Garri has been their daily meal. They only take nice meal once in blue moon.
One day, David was coming back home from work. It was a very bad day as usual. When he got to the corridor, he was about to knock when he heard Florida crying profusely .
"Dēālth please come and tãke me away, I'm fēd up. This suffering is too much, I think I need to põisōn myself" Florida said bittêrly
David got pained and sad, he felt like crying as well but he needed to proof a man. He opened the door, Florida quickly wiped her tears.
"You're welcome David, how is work today" she said.
"Florida, I overheard all you said. See Florida. I've told you times without number that when there's life, there's still hope. Hope for a better living, better than what you've ever imagined. Please stop overthinking about your condition, it causes more harm to your health. Please"
"David, what harm does it cause to me that I had not been passing through already. it's not easy. It's just as if I am in the darkness., I can't do anything. my dancing, my acting career, everything is just gone. Ahhh Godddd" she wept sadly
"Florida, see, don't think that way. Whatever the condition a Man finds himself, he should be thankful. Besides, your condition shouldn't bother you. It shouldn't be the barrier, just take a look at YINKA AYEFELE, despite his plight, he still sings and he's one of the top musician now. A downfall of a man is not the end his life"
"I know David, I've tried my best but still the same. you're the only one I have. Despite what I've done to you, you still take me as your friend. My families disowned me simply because they never agreed to my dream from start. They said if I insist on pursuing my dream of being a model, then they will disown me. no friends anymore. And the only person that could chear me up is you. But When I needed you the most, you are not with me, your nature of work doesn't allow that. I was only the one at home. What do you expect?"
"I understand, I know God will do the best for us very soon. Stop crying Florida" David consoled and wiped Florida's tears
"Okay, God will do the best. Let me just pretend I believe what you just said. Let me keep hoping that I will become a normal person again" Florida kept weeping which it cannot be again
"Umm, God. Please come to our aid. Please" David looked up, a tears rolled down his face.
Few moment later, David prepared pap and akara (beans cake) for dinner. Despite the efforts and his possible best to keep Florida's company by gisting and cracking jokes but Florida was still bored till he slept off
The following morning. David prepared breakfast, did the house chores, and the usual assistance for Florida before he left for work.
Florida was the only one at home. She tried to sleep to keep herself from disturbing thought and boredom but all to no avail.
"In the evening, by 8pm, David hadn't arrived which it was unusual of him. Florida was worried and curious.
At 10pm. David was not yet at home. Florida's heart wasn't at rest anymore. She dialled his number but not going through.
By 11pm, all of a sudden, her phone ranged, it was a strange number. When she picked, the caller called to informed her that David had been arrested. Her phone dropped and she screamed loudly.
