EUNICE ANSAH-AGYEMAN
THE LAST KISS
EPISODE 10
Alicia steps out of the salon looking fabulous in the hairdo the stylist was forced to do to hide the fact that her hair did not dry perfectly.
Curtis’ car is parked a few yards across the street from the salon when she finally gets out.
Alicia sighs uncomfortably and racks her brains for an excuse to dispatch him without hurting his feelings. She has to be very careful what she says since Curtis, though very sweet, caring and loving, is super sensitive emotionally.
Curtis has stepped out of the car and is smiling warmly at her.

Alicia’s heart melts in that smile.
There’s no doubt she is deeply in love with him but maybe her mother-in-law is right.
Curtis does not deserve an HIV infected person for a wife. Sooner or later, she has to set him free.
Curtis pulls her in his arms when he sees the strain of sadness on her face.
“Experiencing the blues? ” he asks after making sure she is comfortably seated.
“A little bit.”
“Want to talk about it? You know, sometimes the mountain you think you are climbing is just a grain of sand in front of you. Talk to me, dearie. I know you would feel better after that.”
“There’s nothing to tell. Just one of those days when you feel the whole world is against you.”
“I will never be against you; do you know why?”
“You tell me. I don’t know why you continue to be so positive, so loving, so caring after knowing I have HIV. “
“It’s simple, really. I love you with my very soul. There will be no me without you. I can’t live without you, Alicia. You should always remember that. Having you in my house, in my bed, in my life every day is all I hoped for. And I’m going to love you more each passing day. I will be kissing you, touching you and making you mine in every way possible. That is my solemn pledge to you.”
“Even when it exposes you to getting infected with HIV or worse? You have to rationalize this Curtis. Don’t get me wrong but I think we should part ways before I infect you. I’ll die knowing I infected you.”
“Don’t really mind getting infected as long as I can get to kiss you every day, touch and explore your body and dance with you in that unique way only you and I know how. I do love you, baby girl. I really do!”
Alicia knows it is pointless trying to reason with him on that particular subject.
Not that she is surprised because she is aware if the tables were turned there will be nothing under the sun that would make her leave him.
She knows their feelings for each other is deep and selfless but she feels sometimes when you really love someone you need to make huge sacrifices just to ensure the other person’s happiness and well-being.
Alicia realizes Curtis has turned into an unfamiliar lane.
“Where are we going, Hun?”
“It’s a surprise, sweetheart. Need to show you something I discovered.”
There is absolute silence as they drive along the streets of the beautifully-designed settlement.
Moments later Curtis turns into the driveway of Pleasure Gardens.
Alicia loves it the moment her eyes fall on it.
The driveway is decorated with palm trees at both ends which leads straight to the reception.
The palm trees are painted orange and white to add a special touch to the serene surroundings.
Curtis parks, takes Alicia’s hand and enters the reception.
A huge pictorial map of the place hanged on the wall facing the reception chairs.
They sign up for tour services and within a short time a smartly-dressed young man with a warm infectious smile appears to take them round.
There are nicely designed chalets all around just close to the lake. They have the names of the eleven apostles assigned to each chalet.
There is also a five-storey behind the reception for accommodation.

The restaurant is mounted on the lake and is connected by the nicest bridge her eye has ever seen.
Canoes are available as an optional means of transport to the restaurant.
There is a cruise ship with live band on the lake.
The guide, Emmanuel, explains that they can opt to have lunch on the ship as it cruises around for at most forty-five minutes.
There is a flower garden showcasing different types of flowers. It is a really beautiful sight to behold all the colours that surround them. It’s like looking at the Garden of Eden with benches fixed at vantage points.
A birdhouse, where different kinds of birds are housed, is attached to the flower garden.
There is a vegetation and animal farm where crops and animals are reared for food for the restaurant.
There is a huge walkway, the tallest and longest Alicia has ever seen that connects the place to the forest reserve at the other side of the lake. One has to go over a portion of the lake before entering the forest reserve.
Pleasure Gardens looks like a whole city on its own. There is a clinic and a vet in-house.
There’s a church and a resident pastor.
There are also ATM machines at vantage points, a supermarket, salon and SPA on the premises.
Curtis convinces Alicia to lunch on the Pleasure Ship.
She loves the food and the atmosphere.
She loves the songs and most importantly she loves the fact that the love of her life is with her.
He is her world, that goes without saying. He is the Alpha and Omega of her and she knows her life will be empty and meaningless if he were not in it.
Alicia feels relaxed after the cruise.
They check into one of the Chalets and again Alicia is amazed at the display of creativity.
Curtis has picked Disciple Andrew.
The living area has a brief profile of the disciple with a painting hanging just opposite the entrance.
The bed is neatly made with white sheets and has two flower posts with fresh flowers in them at the head of the bed.
The room has a mild pleasant scent which seem to be emanating from the assorted flowers.
Alicia suddenly feels exhausted.
She takes off her footwear and lies down.
Curtis joins her shortly afterwards.
He pulls her close and cuddles her in the spoon position.
Alicia drifts off to sleep in the arms of the only man she truly loves shortly afterwards.
Curtis watches her as she sleeps peacefully and knows he could stay awake every day watching her while she slept.
He likes watching the glow on her face when she sleeps, so care free, so relaxed without any worries or fears.
She is a real beauty to look at.
He likes hearing her breathe while she sleeps and yearns to stay in that unique moment forever.
Curtis is aware that every moment he spends with her is one to treasure.
All he wants to do at the moment is hold her close as he lies beside her, feeling her heart beating, feeling her heart so close to his.
A ding from a phone wakes Curtis.
Their phones are on the chest beside the bed and he is closer to it. He checks his phone but there is nothing.
He checks Alicia and sees a message from Mama Edith.
Knowing that’s how she has saved his Mom’s number he opens the message just out of curiosity.
The message he sees throws him off guard completely.
“I know you have a price, faker. Just name your price to permanently leave my son alone. HE DESERVES BETTER AND HE WON’T ENJOY LIFE KNOWING HE IS TRAPPED TO AN HIV INFECTED WIFE. REASON UP, GIRL! IF YOU EVER LOVED HIM, THIS IS THE TIME TO SHOW IT, SET HIM FREE BY LEAVING HIM!”
He quickly takes a snap shot of the message and sends it to his phone and deletes it afterwards.
He then goes through all the messages she has received from his Mom.
The shocking revelation that his Mom is interfering in his marriage makes his blood boil with fury.
He does not like it when people play God in His life not even when they are his own parents.
He now understands why Alicia is always bringing up divorce in their conversations.
And he needs to talk to his Mom immediately.
He tries to get out of bed but Alicia pulls him down.
“Don’t leave me, Curtis. Don’t ever leave me!”
“I will never leave you my dearest Alicia! Never”
He pulls her close and rests her head on his chest.

Alicia is out on the balcony with Curtis.
He is looking smart in his golf gear.
He meets up with the boys for golf once a month.
Alicia usually accompanies him but this time around she is adamant.
“Are you sure you are not coming with me? You’re my lucky star, how am I going to win if you are not with me? ” Curtis asks for the umpteenth time.
“That’s emotional blackmail, and you know it. You know I’d love to come but I’m not really into it today. I feel a little drained from all the anxiety and stress. I will only be in your way if I come. Please understand me! ” Alicia replies.
“Hmmm, what can I say. I will miss you every step of the way.”
“I will miss you too. Go on and have fun. Will be right here waiting for you.”
Alicia gives him a kiss.
She sees him off to the car and waits for him to drive out.
She goes back to the balcony and tries to relax.
The week has been peaceful for her although she was extremely busy.
The Board gave approval for the legal action against Benk’s Investments.
The head of their legal department, Kharisa Agyemang, had worked tirelessly to secure the injunction on the company’s accounts. She was so convincing, the Judge granted the application filed to prevent the company from drawing cheques on it.
Events of the family meeting stayed with her all week. Alicia keeps replaying the shock on the faces of her family and that of Curtis’ family. Her mother in laws reaction was the shocker of them all.
The test messages from her mother in law had stopped suddenly giving her hope that all was not lost.
She picks The Klever Magg’s Sizzling Novelas to read.
