LOVE SO SWEET
true story

It started with a call from unknow number that Symon recieved, "hello!" Symon replied to the call " ooh! it's girl!", he talked to himself.A girl on phone said "is that malia's phone?",
no am Symon....." oooh! where is that?", Ntcheu..."ooh! sorry it's a wrong number" , the girl on the phone cut the line.

Symon was sixteen years old by this time, his parents lives in sharpvalley in a village called zalengela , the area is by the way to Salima.the village had no electricity by then , uncivilised.
his parents sent him to Ntcheu community Day Secondary School, there he was on self boarding.
Symon with friends were living happily
hard working and doing things as team, one's problem was everybody's concern.By the time Symon recieved this call he was cooking Nsima(malawian staple food) , it was his turn to cook at lunch time

Time went and Symon wanted to know more about the girl on the phone called from unknown number, after two weeks Symon texted to the number a girl called, "hie", the text was very short , Symon waited for the replie but the girl didn't .
Days went no response, the boy thought he can't be responded but he saved the number in his phone by the name "Uknown girl".
After two weeks Symon recieved airtime from the number he saved " unknown girl" and he texted to the number again "hie may i know you please where you are from and your name"
Unknow girl replied" am Emma from zomba, whats your name?" she asked
am Symon i told you where i stay "yeah " she replied.

Now these two were charting daily but it was difficult for them to meet since distance from Ntcheu to Zomba was almost eight kilomiters and tranport to meet was not easy to find especialy to Symon who was living with his mum who was divorced and his father does not help him.


Emma was a last born in her family wich had only two children the first one was working at a certain company , her father was a teacher and her mother too.She was happy to chart with Symon and she really wanted to see him.Transport to Ntcheu wasn't difficult to find but she was young and she can't go out for more hours her parents and her brother will start searching her, Emma was fifteen years old by this time.

Months went by , these two charting everyday and everyone tald their friends about how they are charting and how close they are.Symon had dreams to be a Musician and he liked listening and memolise songs, one of his best artist was westlife he memolise some of their songs and he used to sing duling conversation with Emma and she liked this.
because of how close they were, the two fall in love 💕 and they had vision that they will meet and see each other one day.

An oppotunity came when Emma whith her brother went to ntcheu, it was very nice to Emma for she will have chance to meet Symon.Emma and her brother were going in certain village in Ntcheu known as Mphepozinayi, there they wated to visit their uncle.

Sudenly they were in Mphepozinayi in Ntcheu. Emma called Symon that now she is in Ntcheu but they will not stay for a long since her brother had to be in office on monday and her in class(it was weekend).
on sunday morning Emma called Symon to meet at Ntcheu bus deport,
Symon gladly, he dressed up in nice clothers but when he muched out from the room his friends told him something different, they said"brother don't bother on dressing , she will think you are rich but seriously you are not , so put own simple clothers and go", Symon thought it wise and he did that.he take off all cothers and put on a short and t_shirt with simple shoes, it wasn't bad and he walked to the deport.


After twenty munites since her call the phone rung, Symon picked and answerd, "am at the deport walk fast my brother won't wait for a long"
ok am on my way, Symon replied.
The boy run, after few munites Symon was at the deport but he wanted to see Emma before She see him so Symon stand at a hiding place and start looking around , there were so many people boys girls at the deport and he never saw anyone who was like Emma accoding to the picture he had in mind ''had it been we were on social network i could have seen her picture hance very easy to identify her" he thought as he was looking around to see if he can see her even though he have never see her.

phone rings Symon picked it up while looking around to see a girl on phone, then he saw a certain girl on rangelover almost brand new car, she stand leaning that brand new expencive car door, she was in sun glasses "what have i done?" Symon talked to himself.He answerd the call " Symon where are you be fast we are running out of time", oooh! yeah i am coming , Symon replied the phone cut
and Symon shut down his phone."I souldn't heve listen to those friends look to how she looks! no! i can't meet her in this dressing" then he went back warried.

After two hours he turn on his phone and more masseges from Emma came, Symon read them and called, "am sorry Emma were you really serious that you were at the deport? i thought you were not, sorry but next time we will meet my dear". Emma stayed quiet for a while then say "never do that again", ok sorry , Symon replied.
Even thought this happened their relationship was still going nicely charting everyday, but Emma had a great desire to see Symon and she was still thinking of plan on how she can meet him.

One day Emma got bad dreams, before the dreams came she went to the prophet Malija for prayers and he gave him prayed water in a bottle to take them for spuritural guidance and protaction fron evil, after a month with her friend Eliza who lives nearby her residence asked her to go with her at Thembachako the phrophet, becouse Emma was interested in gathering in such places for prayers she went with Eliza, there she was also given water in a bottle prayed by the Prophet Thembachako.when Emma reached home after the prayers she mixed water she took from both side "by the way both comes from God , and His prophets gave me" she talked to herself while mixing water in one jar.on the same day night she had a dream in a dream she saw prophet Malija asking for his water at the same moment prophet Thembachako with angry face tald her to give him back his water, Emma was terified then she wake up with fear, she calm down and slept again.when she wake up in the morning she tald Symon her boyfriend about the dreams and Symon said don't worry it's just a dream it means nothing.


Three days after the dreams Emma got sick and as usual the boy has to know and keep him updated, she was taken to the hospital, und Symon was talking much with Linda house maid and best friend of Emma.Symon was sad about the condition of Emma , he can't go to see her, all he had to do is to kneel down and ask God to heal her.

Two days in the hospital no imprevement he was only talking to Linda who was keeping her phone and is the one telling him about Emmas condition.Symon was not happy he goes to school but worried about his beloved status.The next day morning after four days in the hospital Symon had a text from Emma's number "probably is Linda since she is sick"
he open the text and the text leads"Am sorry Symon Emma is dead".Symon cried and all friends who were with him head and asked what happen, he did not discrose it but his friends who lives with him at the room they knew that something went wrong with Emma , so they took him to their room and asked him what happened, Symon said nothing but took his phone and give them to see the text.Everyone was shorked and some munites went without a word, as friends they tried to make Symon to come down and he did."brothe you have to go to her funeral she is you girl", i have no transport, Symon replied, "we know we will contribute,
really!? ok let me call Linda, he called Linda then the phone was answerd there was noise of many people , no doubt people gothered for funeral sermony then phone was cut after few seconds text came " am sorry am on group of people came for funeral a can't take a call just text".

"Aa! she is realy gone my dear" he said while texting her back"i want to come how can i reach that place?", it will be nice if you come infact i have just recieved my salary i can give you one way transport" That was Linda.
Symon's room mates called their parents to give them money , they lied that at school they have been asked to buy some school materials, istantly others sald goats and send money others their yeilds and send the money , it was enough for Symon to go to Zomba and come back and the money was given to Symon, he thought to himeself"should i really go? i've never gone in Zomba before , i am going to my girlfriend's funeral atleast i saw her but apart from her nobody knows me in her family, even though Linda knows me but we have never meet and she is just a maid".aaa! guys thank you take back your cash am not going.
He gave them back their cash and tell them the reason, they tried to convice him that he can go but nothing happened, then Symon texted Linda "am sorry i can't come but please lets keep on talking this number is only what i have that confort me" , ok i will linda responded.The funeral sermony definitly was over after one day Symon texted Linda but she never responded, he called and the phone was off, "shaa! maybe Emma's parents have taken back their doughter's phone or his brother can do that".....he thought.

Symon missed classes for one week mouning his girlfriend, four days went no text from Linda then on sixth day text came, Linda is still using my girlfriend's phone ,he new because Emma never write in full text she liked short cuts but linda was typing in full and she was slow in typing, in her text she was conforting Symon saying sorry it happens you will be fine , i know Emma loved you so much, she was always talking about you and according to how we have been talking it proves that you loved her too.Symon when he read the text tears came out of his eyes," atleast i sould have meet her life is not fair"he texted back.
one day Linda asked if Symon can be interested to fall in love with her but Symon deny "that is impossible i can't do that from the same house", but i am a maid this is not my home , Linda responded but Symon insist.

A month went here and there Symon and Linda were talking, the conversation wasn't sweet as it was with Emma but atleast i can talk to one of her family even though she was a maid." Symon i lied am not daed am Emma" , this was a text that came in Symon's phone on the same number thats she talked with Linda"what?" yeah i am alive i just wanted you to come and we could have meet.but my plan failed."Emma do you know what you have cost? my friends lied to their poorly parents to give me money for transport, i missed classess for one week mourning you, and what are you saying? "
so when i called Linda on your phone she answered but she didn't talk and i heard a voice of many people talking , what was that?, "i was passing by market and that is the day i was sent home from the hospital"

One month? lying?......no. its over never text me again.Symon deleted the number .


thats the end
