Their encounter sets off a series of events that leave them both with fresh pain and hurt. They vow never to see each other again, but fate has a different idea.

Excerpt
“So I guess you’re my knight in shining armor coming to rescue the damsel in distress…”
The tone of her voice was not lost on him. There was an edge in it he didn’t like.
She continued, “How many of us have there been over the years?”
“What?” He stared down at her.
She sat up straight and scooted away from him. She stared at him. “How many of us have there been? Six years…let’s see…yeah, I remember the three-month rule, so what is that, twenty-four?”
“You want to do this? Now?” His forehead creased in confusion. What had he said? How could she go from sweet one minute to this the next?
“We might as well. All this pretending we’re all good is making my stomach sick.”
He sighed. He wasn’t going to take the bait. Besides, she really didn’t want the answer. She just wanted to find a way to not let him into her heart.
“Answer me. How many?”
“No.”
“No?”
“N-O. No.”

Wow Daminsi seems a bit of a 'b' in this excerpt. Thank God Jabir did not take the bait after all. I think this excerpt well established the fact that Jabir really wants to connect and Daminsi probably scared of being hurt is using her attitude as a shield. That's my opinion anyway.
ReplyDeleteHi Unoma, I like that you inject your culture and faith into your novel. While I am mainly a fantasy girl I like to once in a while sit back with some contemporary fiction with real life themes, struggles and so on. Added the book to my kindle wish list. Thanks for stopping by and thanks Joy for having her on your blog.
Thanks for dropping in, Sheena-Kay and for sharing your thoughts.
DeleteHi Sheeena-Kay...lol thank you for your comment and I would love if you give my work a try. As for your perception of Damisi...you gotta know context. You are right but you know there is never a smoke without fire.
DeleteThank you Joy,for having me and introducing Anchored By Love to your readers. God Bless.
