Love and disobey( Blood love).

A boyfriend for Sarah..

Sarah Parker glanced at the young guy seated across him , he was relaxed and even composed like he had every right to be seated in that table.

" And who is this young man seated with us ?" Sarah asked eyeing his Father curiously.

" This is Sarah my daughter, James a son to my old colleague, he heard that I have a beautiful daughter who loves calculus and he wanted to meet you!" Saul Kay smiled as the two greeted each other, Fingers crossed hoping it goes well.

" James how are you,? wow, my Papa has lots of young friends Huh!" Sarah asked sarcastically.

" He is outgoing and socially on point ,why not ? , I have known him for some time now!" James confidently muttered.

" That's where my Papa and I draw the line , I like it quite,don't care about friends, am all alone in my own alone circle!" Sarah said excitedly like it was a good thing being alone.

" Damn that's boring ,what would I do without friends?" He raised his brows, he was handsome alright but he appeared hurt, his eyes with the freckles around them spoke deep of his condition at the moment .

" Wow!, Do you have a girlfriend?" Sarah snickered

" I had ordered a full course ,hope my choice fits all of you," Saul Kay interfered, trying to make eye contact with him ,but he was busy , probably thinking of how to answer her.

" I will eat anything that you have ordered, And James I'm waiting for your answer!" Sarah asked in desperation.

" I loved her and I still love her ,though I curse her in my sleep, the pain in Love and hate is equal, the two most powerful and diverse emotions that can't control man, I feel like a fool , I feel cheated, she was not true to me and I don't know whether I'm ready for a relationship at the moment, I won't to sit here and lie!" James said pain flashed his face.

" Am sorry,do you wanna talk about it , I am new to love but I can listen to ease your pain !" Sarah stared at her Father, and he averted his gaze to a different table, he was not expecting the conversation to take this road.Today you brought me an invalid of love full of pain , let me play along see how this meet new people goes!.

" My heart and affection has been owned by someone ,I can't call my own , She is busy giving attention to bad boys who are drug dealers and am afraid something might happen to her,but she doesn't want to hear my voice!,"' James said ,sniffling ,bending down and toying with his fork as he kept poking the prawns in the salad without eating them.

" That's why I told you to come and meet my daughter, she is single,looking for new friends and off course who knows what might happen !" Saul Kay said," Eat your salad son!".

" If it were easy to jump from one relationship to another then your father would be having a woman since that jovial woman left him !" James said eyeing Saul indifferently, Sarah wondered if he was forced to be here at the first place, his first impression of composure losing meaning .

" Why can't you be friends then ,without you demanding too much from her!" Sarah suggested .

" Being friends after a break up is like having iced tea and hot coffee together, it is not possible after those crazy moments," James stared at Sarah ,shaking his head.

" I feel for you, I am yet to fall in love, I cannot believe I am missing all the crazy stuff, I'd like to find myself in your situation bugging and lamenting and whining about some boy that I just broke up with , it seems like fun!" Sarah giggled and took the last prawn on her plate,then pushed it before her ,ready to listen to his distress.

" If you are still new to love , then you don't know how it feels when your mind is telling you to stop loving someone but your heart won't let go!" James said, he had started eating now ,when he realized he was being left behind, and obviously the next course was on its way.

" Not new, me and love we are strangers, none of us has met the other!" Sarah frowned secretly when he shot her a doubting look.

" At your age, where did you go to school lier?" James was not interested with what she believed were lies.

" Ask my Father?" Sarah Parker shrugged.

" Was your Father living with you when you were in school ,at this era and century, you haven't had a boyfriend?" it was James turn to giggle.

"Nope!".

" Why you look beautiful , from what your father said and intelligence, what's the problem !" James examined her alluring looks, if he were not in love then he would not hesitate to win her heart.

" I think the boys never noticed me , I was always busy with books and calculators, I didn't even have the time !" Sarah explained,wondering why it was a big deal.She was uncomfortable having to explain herself to him,but he had also talked about love ,of many things she never knew they existed, like the pain embedded on his eyes ,stuck like it was permanent.

" She likes it indoors, maybe sometimes you should come for her and you can drive around seeing the liveliness of this small city we live in !" Saul Kay said.

" It's odd if your father speaks for you like this , what exactly do you want ,issues relationship?" James asked.

That was a question that has never dawned in her mind in all her life, asking her about such issues was like putting her between two hard places, with no place to turn to, she tried to think about what she wanted but she didn't have an idea nothing has ever excited her like staying indoors after a busy day ,having a warm bath as she lazed around the bathtub and think about nothing.

" Matters relationship is a topic that has not yet gotten into my mind, I have a few fantasies here and there but if you ask me today the kind of man I want for myself ,I will tell you I don't know nothing fascinates me in men!" Sarah Parker, widened her eyes.

" Just when I want to believe so much that love does not exist then you happen, I think you should fall in love It is the sweetest feeling ever!" James looked inside her eyes.

" And suffer the way you are suffering at the moment , you can't eat like a man , your pain is engraved deep in your eyes, is that sweetness,?" Sarah parker asked as she listened to her whispered exclamations.

" Love is risky it gets you hurting ,just as being real gets you hated, my dear Sarah, you have not lived if at your age you are yet to experience a break up , get hurt and fall in love again with a different person and forget completely that other love ?" James whispered so her Father would not hear him .

He had asked him to be present on this table ,so he can distract her daughter from a grevious mistake she was about to involve herself with but according to him he was coaching her on love matters, He stared at him at shook his head.

" I just hate that statement , I wish if I had to fall ,I would fall once and am done,!" She cursed ,and swore inaudibly.

" Listen to my girl, try falling for your Friend there and you will be in safe hands, I will be back I need to call someone?" He excused himself from the table,they were eating some pork loins with honey and mashed potatoes.

" Your food will get cold , how about you finish and call whoever you want to call !" Sarah was getting bored with this love and pain discussion.

"They have a microwave,!" He went to the further empty corner ,sat down and took out his phone and started talking to someone , few moments later the waiter came git his food .

" Now that my father is not here, tell me truthfully, did he bring you here so that you can befriend me or so that you can become my boyfriend!" Sarah spoke nicely.

" Your father says it hurts him so much to see you drifting into dangerous Lanes and his biggest fear is that you have become an introvert ," James said point blank

" Do fathers worry this much or is he being difficult!" Sarah reused his brows.

" Daughter father bonds are very strong , it would sicken him if your choices are daft!" James shrugged

" Really?".

" You are not outgoing, you have not seen life at its best and that's why I'm here so that tomorrow maybe I can come and pick you and we go somewhere just watch people get drunk and misbehave, it will be good therapy for both of us!" James suggested not sure if she will agree or not.

" As long as we won't go near them and you won't force me to take alcohol them am in ,!" She chuckled, imagining probably misbehaving meant they will be removing their clothes and indulging openly.

" what's wrong with taking alcohol, a glass of wine would never hurt you, Damn in which century do you belong to !"

" Stop asking , I think you are even older than me, meaning we are in this century, just because I am not adventurous that does not make me a fool !" Sarah almost raised her voice.

" I think you are a weirdo some genius, you need something strong that can stop your busy mind even for two hours!" James looked at her face and saw a scowl appearing on her face , that meant she did not agree with him.

" The only thing that blocks my mind making it inactive is a warm bath nothing else!" She shook her head.

" No problem then , just be my friend and help me get this pain out of my heart,!" James insisted, he had been promised some cash if he convinced her to get out of the house often.

" If only I understood love , I would help ?" .

" Just being there and listening , offering me company is enough !" He said.

" Is that you speaking or it's my Dad, he told you that?" Sarah asked either an incredulous tone.

" This is me speaking your father or invited me for dinner so that we could talk and become friends he doesn't know what is going on in my life so whatever I am telling you is my making or you don't want a friend?" James asked, he pushed his plate, he had been challanged as a man ,not yo eat food because of a breakup, so hr was determined to finish his Loins first before she laughs at him.

" I could do with a friend mostly because at the moment I am undergoing a process of self-discovery but believe me I will never attend too noisy places like clubs, maybe we visit a park," Sarah stated,

" My dear ,men fear inexperienced Ladies, you must know a few things!" James said." Listen to your self parks,!".

" Yes!"

She wondered if those feelings she claimed she didn't have were already with her. Earlier that evening when she snuggled in Arden's Chest, she felt like she belonged there, like nothing not even her father would deny her the comfort that was brought by their skin contact , she wondered if that was love.

" Why should we visit parks ,are we Children?" James asked astonished," pure fun is in clubs, we could go to a high rated one , hooligans never see their way in!".

" I have been to a few and I only got sick, I didn't like the kind of smell , emanating from those environs, a mixture of cigarettes and cigar, beers, scents from perfumes and sprays and then perspiration from the exhausted dancing crew, That place is disgusting, I don't want to go to such a place again!" Sarah Parker's description alone made you imagine the scene she described.

" Tomorrow I will take you to a more diverse, modern hotel with decent people,We sit around ,dance and sip on expensive wines!" James chuckled, he has never been Into such a place ,he could never afford it but since Mr Saul Kay was financing him ,then why not .

They said their goodbyes, James took a taxi and promised her the following day they would talk more. Father and daughter drove home in silent.

Saul could not wait to hear from his accomplice if her daughter had agreed to accompany him for exploration, he was ready to do anything to keep her away from Judge Arden May.
