EPISODE 2

Maya was quiet for a while.

She reminisced on events of the night before.

She had so much fun she had actually looked forward to their last meeting.

They moved from one tree to the other whilst Prince told a short story about each tree.

She marveled at the depth of knowledge he had on almost everything.

Finally, they got to the friendship tree where people had engraved their names, messages and funny faces to convey a thought or feeling.

They read all the messages and names.

Prince drew a smiley face and wrote his initials (POP) in it. When he was satisfied with his work, he had handed the pair of dividers he used to Maya to write anything she wanted.

Maya wrote her initials (MOM) beside his and added the phrase “Friends Forever” beneath it.

They both laughed and left the tree hand in hand to their camps.

That night as she drifted off to sleep there was a smile on her face.

She felt happy and loved.

Maya sat up, obviously irritated by Prince’s cold treatment.

“I guess I should be heading back to the girls’ camp. I wish you a safe trip back home tomorrow.” She said and tried to get to her feet.

Prince grabbed her hand and begged her not to go.

“I’m usually like this when I’m sad or hurt. I am sad that we won’t be seeing each other after tomorrow. I’m going to miss you a whole bunch. I feel like a valuable treasure is being ripped from me. I didn’t want this experience with you to end.”

“I’ll miss you too. But at least we have today. We can make the best of it so we would always look back and laugh. If it is God’s will, that we meet again, we will. Stop being pessimistic and just be content that we at least had the opportunity to get to know each other even if it was for a short time. I know I will never forget you. You’ve made quite an impression on me and I would forever be grateful for the time we shared together. You have no idea what this means to me.”

Prince sat up and moved closer to her still holding on to her arm.

“I guess the feeling is mutual. You have impacted my life in these few weeks like no other. You have an amazing personality and you are such fun to be with. Thanks for sharing these weeks with me. I will forever cherish them.”

“Stop getting all sentimental, Prince. Stop behaving as if this is the end of the world. I am positive we will meet again. Just believe it too.”

They both laid back folding their hands behind their heads and gazed at the starry night.

Each was acutely aware of the unspoken deep feelings they have for the other.

Suddenly, there seemed to be a pregnant silence between them as they lay so close to each other listening to their heartbeats. Prince tilted a little to his side and snuggled closer to her.

He ran his hands through her hair.

Maya felt butterflies in her tummy and turned to look at him with her feelings on her face.

Prince planted a kiss on her forehead and brushed his lips against hers, sending shivers through both of them.

Maya moved closer as if in surrender.

Prince asked her to take out the gum in her mouth and she did with a smile on her face.

He kissed her on the lips as soon as the gum was out.

They lost control of their feelings in that single kiss.

They lost touch of time and their surroundings in that kiss as their hands caressed and touched places that brought nothing but mutual pleasure.

With unbridled passion they explored and gave their all till there was nothing more to give when they made love under the stars in the gardens.

They were both clumsy at first but as soon as they found each other’s rhythm and danced to it, time did not matter. Their young bodies gave and took until there was nothing more to give or take.

After what seemed like eternity they reached the summit minutes apart with their bodies convulsing and twitching with such pleasure they both didn’t know existed until now.

Prince looked down at Maya sleeping soundly in his arms and smiled.

He would give anything to stay like this forever.

He knew all the walls he built had tumbled down without a fight or a sound.

Prince had vowed to marry a virgin.

He had seen his resolve broken to pieces right before his eyes and the funny part was he had enjoyed every second of it.

He knew Maya was his angel and was aware he would walk in her halo for the rest of his life.

And he knew he had broken every rule that night.

He knew it was a risk he had taken but he just did not care what was in store for them.

He loved her.

Oh, he loved her more than words could say.

They had both drifted off to sleep and shortly after their explosive adventure. Prince had woken when he remembered the trouble they would meet if they returned to their camps late.

They were already an hour late when he checked the time.

He looked down at her peaceful face and saw that she was everything he needed.

He could see her love written all over her face and prayed that it would never fade away.

Prince knew that he would see her halo everywhere he went.

Her love had hit him like a ray of sun and totally transformed his darkness into a bright light.

He felt awakened and loved.

He knew from that day onward, everywhere he went he would be surrounded by Maya’s embrace.

Finally, he patted her softly on the back and told her it was time to go.

She sat up and looked shyly into his eyes.

“I love you, Maya Ofori-Mintah!”

“I love you too, Prince Osei – Poku!”

They both got to their feet grudgingly and left hand in hand.

A few blocks from the girl’s camp, they stopped and just stared at each other, both filled with strong emotions.

Prince pulled out a box from his pocket.

He opened it to show its contents and took out the beautiful necklace from the box.

He opened the locket.

It had his picture and his initials in it.

Maya was dumbfounded.

It was the most beautiful thing anybody had given her.

“I got it from the gift shop this afternoon. I don’t want you to ever forget me no matter what happens,” he said and put it around her neck.

Prince handed her the note that came with the necklace.

It was a poem he had penned just for her.

The Way You Are!

When I look at your face,

there’s nothing I would change.

You are perfect the way you are!

Your beautiful eyes make the stars look dull!

Your hair is beautiful and so bright it can light up a room!

And your beautiful smile brings peace to the eyes and peace to the heart!

You are incredible just the way you are!

Live large my dear cos this heart will love you forever!” POP

Maya had tears of joy in her eyes by the time she finished reading it.

She felt overwhelmed with love and happiness.

Prince’s words had touched the core of her soul and she felt elated, lifted and adorned with the most expensive jewellery in the whole wide world.

“I want you to promise me you will never change, Maya. That you would be just the way you are.” Prince implored.

“I promise with all my heart, I will never change. I will never forget you.”

Maya pulled out a bracelet she had made with beads and loom bands and gave it to him.

She told him it wasn’t much of a present but the important part was that she had made it with love.

Prince had kissed her briefly and hugged her more than twice before they finally parted for the night.

They both walked into their separate camps to find their chaperones fuming with a mixture of rage and fear.

After endless interrogations, they had both been able to convince their chaperones that they had fallen asleep whiles watching the stars under one of the trees in the garden.

They were both so apologetic and considering the fact that they had usually been composed kids and had not misbehaved throughout the two weeks of camping; the matter had been laid to rest and they had been released to go to bed.

It was way past midnight and their buses would leave early in the morning.

That night sleep eluded both of them as the uncertainty of the future hit them.
