My Matchmaking Experience (part four) Valentina

My Matchmaking Experience (part four) Valentina

I was angry and worried after what I had just heard from Antonio. I started calling,searching and asking to get to know the where about of Danny and Valentina. You see, i was in charge of this dancers and besides that, Tina is my friend.
I was mostly worried for 2 reasons;
(I) Valentina speaks little English but hears just little as well at that time and Danny knows no Spanish,which means communicating would be hard on both of them.
(II) If our director finds out that they abandoned a project, they would be left off their contracts.
After three days, I was able to reach Valentina on the phone, she was crying and babbling about being scared and stranded. I asked her where she was and she said she was in Abuja, and my startled mind screamed Abuja!? I had expected  to hear that she had to travel home or something and not Abuja even though I knew that Danny resides in Abuja. I told Valentina to stay put and I called a friend who got her on a flight back to Lagos.

 I tried calling Danny severally, but he didn’t pick up, I was about to give up the effort when he finally called back. I asked him where he was, and he said Lagos, I asked him to see me the next day as i really wanted to find out what happened. Danny kept avoiding me, while Valentina didnt spare him a glance when she got back to Lagos. this two were cozy until they disappeared to Abuja and i needed to find out what changed.

I couldn’t get her to talk or tell me what happened because she became hysterical whenever i brought it up, so i left it alone.She finally told me one day after rehearsals that Danny had offered to show her a beautiful city but they would have to take an hour flight and she had accepted. On getting to Abuja, he showed her around, she said she was excited and happy. She lodged in a hotel that night while Danny went home. The next day, they went out for more sightseeing, but on getting back to her hotel, Danny became touchy, he wanted to spend the night with her but she told him no, she wasn't that type of girl and he got angry, raining insults on her and calling her names and even if she couldn't understand what he was saying, she could feel the bites in his words so she slapped him. Danny got angry and left and went back to Lagos leaving her behind.

And then I called Danny and asked what happened, and he said he had tried to show his affection outwardly and had wanted to touch her and the next thing he  knew it,she slapped him, so he angrily left.
After rehearsals the next day, I told them both to talk and I will translate, i did, and they settled their differences but the never got together.
To cut the story short guys, Valentina and Antonio realised that their friendship over the years had grown into something much deeper than friendship and they started dating, its been 2 years now and they are getting married in November. My match making failed, but God’s own didn’t. They will be in Nigeria soon for their wedding,because they want to wed where they fell in love…..
Check out for Gbemi’s own tomorrow….
