Nadia got to her hostel door and opened it, finding Tyson standing at the doorstep.

"Hello." Tyson's masked expression appeared elusively cheerful.

"Hello, Tyson." Nadia opened wide the door, welcoming the visitor, "Come in."

"Thank you." Tyson walked into the room and looked around. There was nobody else inside. He then slowly continued to one of the study chairs and sat.

Nadia followed behind and sat on her bed, "Are you okay?" She gently and amiably inquired.

"I am fine." Tyson managed a vague smile, "I just wanted to talk to you."

The gentleman's tone made Nadia sense that something was troubling him. She moved and sat closer to him, "It's okay. You can talk to me about anything." She said soothingly.

Her tone mystically started to dispel the stressful thoughts that was upon Tyson. He already felt comfort from her gentle and warm voice, making him develop trust and belief in her. Trust of telling her his secrets openly. The feeling was powerful, and the first to ever appear when he was with somebody. He felt he could never share everything about his life even with his parents- two of the people who were close to him more than anybody in his life. But with Nadia it was different. He felt he could tell her everything about his life.

"Nadia," He calmly began, "I am caught up in the middle of something that I am finding it hard to manage… handle..." He sighed, "I... I met this girl a few months back. Her name is Lindah. She is beautiful and smart, and a nice person, too. This made me fall in love with her, or I thought I did. In the beginning, things were okay between us, but as time passed, I didn't feel fulfillment anymore in our relationship.”

“My interest in her gradually started to disappear, until I now completely don't feel anything for her. But it is not the same on her part. She is still into the relationship and very much invested in it. This is really eating me up. I don't want her to be in a relationship that is a lie. She is a nice and wonderful person who deserves a functional relationship. She deserves somebody who loves her back. I have tried to be that person but I honestly can't. The best I can do is force myself, and that is just a lie to both of us."

Nadia was keenly at him, piteously and dolefully. Her heart was touched by wretchedness on the gentleman's inundation. She didn't know how to help or even begin knowing how to help in the matter, but immediately, a swift thought came on her mind, "Did the interest disappear when we met?" She inquired with concern, deep down strongly wishing she wasn't the cause of his depression.

"No, no, Nadia." Tyson said with sincerity and dogmatic assurance, "The interest disappeared long ago. Long before I met you. I swear to you on this."

Nadia looked into his eyes and realized how true his words were. It occurred naturally, and she was relieved by it, but nevertheless knew how sensitive the matter was, "I am sorry this is disturbing you," She tried to find the right words in the topic, "It is always difficult when one is entangled in love affairs. I..."

"It's okay, Nadia." Tyson said coolly, realizing that the lady had intentions of helping out but didn't know how to go about it, "I am making conversations with her, and I hope she will be able to understand. I will make sure she sees sense and understanding in it."

Nadia nodded, much relieved, "Alright. I also hope she understands, because it is naturally difficult to understand in such circumstances."

"I will try my best and give all the understanding I have."

Nadia felt reassured and calm, but still indistinctly concerned and worried. She knew how great and wonderful the man was. He had a charismatic personality and attributes that could attract any woman. Personality and attributes that any woman would wish in a man to date.

And if a woman dated him, the woman would most certainly use every means possible to keep the man only for herself and to fight for him if a situation called for. Nadia was certain of this because she had been with the man and they had already shared a lot together, thereby knowing him well enough.

"Right now I just want to clear my head because it has been spinning out of control." Tyson said, "I came to ask you if we can go and drive around the city, anywhere, so that I can clear my head."

Nadia considered. She knew what she felt for the gentleman. A feeling strong enough to make her voluntarily comfort him whenever he was down or depressed. The feeling even made her feel that it was her responsibility for the task.

But she was still worried about the information the gentleman had come with. She knew how weighty the matter was, in that she might also be involved in it. She was close with the gentleman. So close that most of the people around them knew they were best friends and others concluded they were lovers. This alone could make her get involved in the matter.

After considering, she sighed and freed her mind, trying to force the worriedness out of the mind. The Almighty will take care of it. She then brought a slight smile on her face, "It's okay. We can go anywhere you want."

Tyson felt a sudden blissful sense of pleasure beating in his heart with the lady's expression and tone. He knew she would never decline whatever he asked her, "Thank you. I am glad in your agreement." He showed the blissful happiness out on his face.

Nadia widened her smile, sweetly, "I will only want you happy and free from worry and stress. I am happy when you are happy." She paused, "But I will have to change my clothes. Just give me a minute... outside."

Tyson understandably nodded, "Of course." He said with pleasure and walked to the door, Nadia genially looking at him.
