For the past three days, there’s this story that has been making me laugh everytime I remember it. It sort of came to me while I went down memory lane some days back, and because of how hilarious it is, I haven’t been able to get it out of my head. <img src="https://images.ecency.com/DQmVCAVjQW5cXNWQ63Bu6QcZmoivVyhziDhdTxgk4LLoXLK/img_2441.jpeg" alt="" /> There was this one time a friend of mine was participating in a fashion contest. It was the grand finale, so I and my roommates needed to be there, to support her. This was an event we’d all planned that we would be attending a week prior, and we all knew to be ready at the time the event was starting. We’d all dolled up, ready for a night of fun and showing support, when we noticed that one of the girls and her sister didn’t come out with us. Some of us went back to check what was wrong. We went there and met her in tears, her sister consoling her. When we eventually got her to tell us what was wrong, she told us that her boyfriend said she shouldn’t attend the event with us. We asked for the reason why he would say so, and according to her, he didn’t want her to be seen by boys in that vicinity. His belief was that since the party was being done at a popular hotel lounge, his girl wouldn’t be safe around the boys that frequented there. There was no other reason. <img src="https://images.ecency.com/DQmX8p79jdinLwLFgMuM91fhjxDZua5zR6faEQFBjzY2E9L/img_2670.jpeg" alt="" /> I’ve heard absurd things but this one topped the list. I muttered an ‘ohh’, leveled her a look of sympathy and left the room because there were so many questions on my mind at that moment. I also knew that if I stayed, I might have bursted into laughter that might turn us into enemies for life. If she knew how protective her boyfriend could be, why did she get her hopes high, dress up and wait for that crucial moment to inform him of her destination? She could have told him earlier, together they plan his coming with her, to ensure her safety around the hotel boys and she’ll be happy. Or if he couldn’t come with her, she wouldn’t have gone through the stress of dressing up and having to stay back in the end. I felt sorry for her because she really looked forward to cheering our friend, but unfortunately, she had to respect her partner and stay back. Remembering this experience was funny because when we were told the reason why she could not go, we all had no idea what to say, or how to comfort her. I’m the biggest fan of respecting one’s partners but in my opinion, if her partner really cared about her happiness, he wouldn’t have stopped her. Anyways, who am I to talk when the owner of the relationship isn’t complaining? Before you judge them, here’s an R&B song that’s been an all-time favorite from childhood. The girl must have been blinded by love, when she forgot to not inform her boyfriend and same for the boyfriend when he denied her that pleasure. It’s titled ‘It must have been Love’ by Roxette. Listen and don’t judge😉: [<img src="https://img.youtube.com/vi/k2C5TjS2sh4/0.jpg" alt="" />](https://youtu.be/k2C5TjS2sh4?si=8YFMgCH7xqdutXD4) * * * The prompt for this week asks for an unforgettable experience. This experience lived rent free in my head, these past three days, and I decided to share it using this prompt. Thanks for reading.
