adaora merely smiled at me, and without another word, stood up and walked towards her room, while my sister looked me over in silence for a while before getting up and clearing the table..... 'Hmmm' my mind was really in a turmoil that moment, but then all i could do was just to sit and wait for chinwe to come out of my mother's room, which she did minutes later and i followed her immediately to the guest room, "what is going on?" i asked her, but she simply looked at me and sat on the bed without replying me, "what is the matter?" i asked her again, but she still ignored me and kept quiet, holding her jaw with her two hands, while her elbow rested on her raised knee's,...... Now that was really what i hate the most, to be ignored when i ask someone a question and my anger returned while i stood up to leave her alone, before i do something i might regret, "i'm leaving tomorrow" she finally said to me and i turned in surprise and looked at her, "why" i asked her and she just shook her head, "there is no need for me to keep decieving myself" was all she could say before tears fell out of her eyes and i went back to the bed to hold her, but she pushed me away, "why are you this wicked?, why didn't you tell me all along that you were engaged to adaora?, why didn't you tell me that you both are already living together? and why didn't you even tell me that your marriage with her has already been fixed? Instead you just allowed me to come here to disgrace myself, do you think i'm that stupid not to notice that your mum's good behaviour towards me is nothing but a ploy? Well i'm happy for coming at least i have seen the truth for myself" she lashed out at me while i looked at her with my mouth wide open in confusion, as i heard all she said which i knew adaora must have told her the previous evening and i desperately tried one more move in order to redeem the situation, "dear all adaora told you was nothing but lies, didn't you remember all my mum said in the dinning, moments ago? supposing adaora was telling the truth, my mum wouldn't have welcomed you the way she did" i said calmly to chinwe as i came closer to hold her, but then what i got for myself was a hot blow from her, for she hit my jaw with a direct knock out blow and i gasped in surprise and shock as i looked at her in awe, for i have never seen her violent before........
"did she just hit me" i asked myself in surprise as i held my jaw, but then dearest friends that was just the begining.... For she just continued crying and refused to be consoled, while i watched her without trying to near her again, for i saw that she clearly believed all adaora had told her and as i looked at her that moment, i saw the collaspe of our relationship which we have clearly fought a long battle keeping.......
And to my dismay i realised that moment that adaora had insisted for chinwe to come in order for her to have direct access to her, which she really succeeded in doing.........
To be continued......

Fitz, you are judging both women based on this post rather than looking at the big picture (from the start) and judging who is more disposed to emotional succour as you called it, and initiative.
If being deceptive indicates initiative then I think it's a good thing Chinwe is not. Being supportive and patient is a more enduring trait than being conniving.
