Finally i can relax after finishing the stressful registration process and begin as a regular student. The only thing remaining is getting my I.D card which i know would be in my possession any thing a week from now. It’s the second Thursday of the schools resumption, @ around 7am the school is crowded with different people from different part of Nigeria moving from one place to another for one thing or the other. I went to a nearby store and get myself something to eat, then roam around my new school, so full of pride that i’m in the University. I was about turning to the other side of a building before i bumped into someone.
Girl: Heyy…
Me: Sorry… d--n (picking up her
papers)
Girl: No i’m sorry i wasn’t myself
Me: Oh (handing over her papers)
Girl: Thank you
Me: Alright. I’m Victor by the way
Girl: Ok, i really have to go
Me: Where are u rushing to?
Girl: My house, i forgot my passport
Photo to use for my I.D card
Me: U can take a quick passport ther
(Pointing at a photographer)
Girl: I know, i just don’t have money
money with me
Me: *smiles* Lets go
On our way going, that’s when i checked her out. Her dressing was normal though but her features were visible (u know what i mean) she’s pretty not beautiful sha… i guess her fair complexion made her look pretty. We got there, she took the photo, got the passports in 14 minutes (and they say 2mins passport) i paid then we walked to the I.D card office, she joined the small queue of four people. It got to her turn, she gave them one passport and the necessary info, we left there then the following conversation ensued.
Me: So… whats the name?
Girl: I’m Esther
Me: Hhmm… nice name
Esther: Thanks
Me: What tribe?
Esther: Ijaw
Me: I see
Esther: What about u?
Me: I’m Igala
Esther: Igala?
Me: Yep, anything??
Esther: Nooo… not really
Me: Which course are u studying?
Esther: Computer Sci.
Me: I like the course too, i can’t do it
‘Coz I’m art
Esther: Eeyah…
Me: Sad thing, its all good
Esther: What’s ur discipline?
Me: Sorry?
Esther: I said what’s ur discipline?
Me: As in?
Esther: Ur course
Me: Oh (Chai i don fall my hands, no
be me and her they start 100L
together? girls can form. Maybe
her friends don orient her)
Bus.Admin
Esther: Hhmm
Me: What?
Esther: Nothing, just feeling hungry
(I was like so???)
Me: Ok then, nice meeting u
Esther: Nice meeting u too
Me: Mind if i have ur digits
Esther: What?
Me: Ur digits
Esther: As how?
Me: (yes, i don revenge) I meant ur
phone number
Esther: Alright, but i don’t i know it
off-hand, u give me urs lemme
flash u
Me: Ok, 070*****47
She flashed me then i saved her
number. We left for our different ways. I went to my new house abi room sef which i’m yet to make it look fab. I stay Off-camp and intend to live alone.
I relaxed on my small bed and evaluate Esther in my head to know how to go with her. I know that she needs money from guys, she’s not the loving type, she can cheat or leave a guy for another ‘coz of money, she she uhmm… not sure yet. I concluded that, she’s not worth loving by me, spend less and get more from her, not date her but have a fling with her and leave her when i’m done with her ASAP.
I’m not a bad guy to be sincere, infact nobody sees me that way ‘coz i’m really cool and do things secretly. I barely tell my closest friends what i do. I earn trust from people ‘coz of my gentleness.
I went to the bank withdrew some money and went to purchased stuffs for my room, it took me to Saturday before i got everything in order. Now i got a nice room to my satisfaction, anything else would be additional.
★★☆★★☆
Monday came so fast as i hurried to class for my first lecture. I got in 20mins before the lecturer arrived. He came in, greets us, told us his name which is Morgan Okoro then he did some introduction of the course then left. Noise aroused in the class as they share pleasantries and introduce themselves to each other. I just left and get something to eat and wait around for the next lecturer.
After an hour of waiting, the lecturer didn’t show up i head home straight. I wasn’t feeling hungry so i just relaxed on my bed. One thinking led to another then i decided to call Esther but she didn’t pick up after two trials. I started thinking about my life, who i want to become, what i want to achieve then i realized that my life doesn’t conform as a player, i want to be real, nice as everyone thinks and get a real girl. I concluded on staying away from Esther as she doesn’t fit my standards.
The day ended and the next became the beginning of something great!
We walked around the beach, with two not-strange people following us, a man and a lady. Hand in hand with her, we laughed, constant hugging, kisses and all. We were so happy together. We left the beach to get some ice cream from there to the movies, we watched a romantic movie while my hand was around her neck and her head on my shoulder what a romantic night for us. We started walking on the street not sure of where we were going but i noticed those two are still following us, i don’t understand why but we felt save. They were also acting romantic when they think we arent looking. We stopped for a moment, i held her waist while she faced me then we looked each other in the eyes her face was blurry i didn’t know why.
Me: Baby
Girl: Yes…
Me: You know i love u so much
Girl: I know dear
Me: I will never do anything to hurt u
Girl: I know
Me: And i will always stand by u no
no matter what
Girl: Alright Victor whats wrong? is
it about my father??
Me: No dear, i just need to be sure
that u trust me
Girl: I trust u and i love u
We shared a passionate kiss
Me: Ermm… sweetheart
Girl: Yes dear
Me: That money i asked of, when
am i getting it?
Girl: I told u not to worry
She brings out her phone, did what i dunno next thing i heard was my phone alert. I opened the message what i saw shoked me…
Your account has been credited with #4,000,000
I was so happy i rushed her with kisses, just then i heard sirens coming to our side with about seven cars including range rover i always admire.
Some hefty men came out and beat the hell out me.
Man: How many times will i warn
you to stay away from my
daughter?
Girl: Dad i love him
Man: Shut up! you, take her into the
car!
I looked as she was been dragged into the vehicle.
Man: I won’t be this nice next time
He said then left me there in the dark. Then i heard a loud noise from the background… I woke up with a slight headache and discovered its my phone that’s been ringing and i’ve been dreaming all this while. 4 missed calls from my mum, i checked the time 7:48am Oopss!! Can’t call her now I’m already late for school. I did a quick bath, put on my clothes, picked up my bag equipped with the necessaries and rushed out as fast as i could. The lecturer has already shut the door when i got there, oh no! Attendance is really important for me, besides i don’t want to miss any lectures. Well, i met four students that also came late but were there before me, three guys and a girl (not attributed in any form).
Guy 1: This man go wicked o… just
him first lecture na’im he dey
lock door
Guy2: See how him be, carry head
like fly-over
Me: Guys make we stand for
window beg ‘am or mak him
just see us
Girl: Abi o
We went to the window begging with gestures using our hands. He would look at us and look away instantly. We continued like that until he announced that we would enter on one condition, that each of us would answer a question before entering his class. We agreed, so he called us to the door post where we’d answer him.
He was about to ask the first question before three elegant looking people arrived. D--n! I could feel the aura of their presence, it was breathtaking. Two ladies and a gentle man actually but one of the ladies looks more younger like a teen, they must be very rich. The teen girl spoke directly to the lecturer.
Teen girl: Morning Lecturer
Lecturer: You know you’re supposed
to be here earlier
Teen girl: Yea, i know. Can i go in?
like now??
Lecturer: Alright, you all should
come in.
Thank you sir in chorused from we that was there before.
Teen girl: Alright guys gat to go for
class or you’d follow me
in as well?
Lady/Man: No miss
Teen girl: This should be the last
time you guys will ever
call me that!!
Lady/Man: Yes Mirabel
The other two must be her bodyguards
(WTF! Who tha hell is she?)
In the class, the lecturer stated his principles, did the introductory part of his lecture, gave us the course outlines then concluded by saying we would start fully next week before he left. The class immediately got noisy as hell, people running from different angles to one spot, the place where that girl was seated, what? who is this girl sef?? a celebrity i don’t know???
They even tried to take photos with her but were prevented by her bodyguards. They were screaming around her before her bodyguards guarded her out of the class.
Myself went out to eat something, i was passing by when i sighted her at the most expensive eatery in the school, i guess she saw me too but i didn’t care. One thing about me is that, i don’t compare myself with rich kids because…. i believe that their fathers/mothers might even suffered more than me, so they might decide to work hard so their children won’t suffer the way they did. So, me thinking about that is a motivation for me to work hard for my own children.
I went to a eatery i could afford, ate, rest a little, then headed to class for the next lectures.
The lecturers came, did their introductions in anticipation for next week’s normal lectures.
Once the lecturers left, those bodyguards would come in to protect their princess.
I left the class for I.D card office to get my I.D, after waiting in the queue for several minutes, they told me my I.D isn’t ready yet. On leaving the place i saw two people at once, I saw Esther coming from the east and Mirabel from the west stepping down from her car, with me at the south side. I don’t want any of them to see me, unfortunately there’s nothing i could do. If i should head north, they would both see me. I immediately thought of something, i’ve always liked west-side ‘coz of 2pac Shakur, U know during the West coast and East coast beef between Notorious B.I.G and 2pac…
2pac rep West-Side. So i decided to take the west route, I walked passed her while she did the same, i didn’t say nothing while she didn’t even look my side. On looking her, i can’t tell what kind of person she was, she was kind of different. But on a normal sense, i’d say she’s arrogant.
I don’t like arrogant people who thinks highly of themselves, they irritates me especially when they feel superior over others.
The introductory week passed, i got my I.D different guys rushing to try their luck in wooing Mirabel, i dunno how it went but looking at her reaction, i guess she didn’t give them a chance. They didn’t stop though, all those swagging guyz, guyz with cars and money from different department kept trying.
★★☆★★☆
Normal lectures began, i paid attention to every single knowledge the lecturers impacted, i don’t miss any lectures, got a semi-friend Titus by name and a good female friend Promise who was the assistant class rep, intelligent but i assisted her alot. She alone knows about my intelligence as i don’t like showing myself to get attention. It was Promise that advised me to be answering questions in the class and help students that needs help. She said…
★★☆★★☆
My day wasn’t that bad but i had to rest a lot by sleeping… i sleep a lot which made mum always complain that i sleep much yet i don’t get fat, because i was a slim guy but i like my stature though.
Phone rings
Me: Hello
Uncle: Hello, how are u?
Me: Fine sir. Long time sir
Uncle: So u know that, yet u don’t call
Me: Not like that sir
Uncle: How is it?
I don’t enjoy lieing or arguments, so i just accepted the blame.

Uncle: Thank God, i will always support u, just don’t betray us boy
Me: Sure sir
Uncle: Alright take care of yourself. Don’t forget to send me your account details. Bye.
Me: Bye sir, thank u sir.
Wow! extra money coming… i love my family jare. With that i decided to treat myself for the night. Coming to school is like a new source of income for me as i worked in a computer business centre that made me save a lot before starting school. Now more money from one relative or another, cool! Good thing i don’t womanize and i don’t drink alcohol.
I went to a nearby suya spot which later became my favourite. I bought #300 suya, went into a shop got myself hollandia yoghurt and 3 eggs. I got home, prepared indomie and enjoy myself as a student for the night. Then i thought about what Promise had told me earlier
“If Martin Luther had kept his knowledge to himself, he wouldn’t had become great“
I thought about it over and over then agreed with her after some time.
Time for everyone to know who Victor Vames is
I said to myself silently.
My alarm went of, i woke up feeling cool, i prayed to God, did some push-ups, brushed my teeth, bath, prepared myself for school. I checked my phone, saw like 4 messages and 3 missed. The callers was my mum and my uncle… I was about to leave it for later but, Oh! My Uncle!! I swiftly checked my inbox
1 from mtn, 2 from 4900,
1 from firstbank yes!! i screamed out
as i saw what was credited in my account, what do u expect from an engineer uncle, i wont tell u guys the amount *Tongues out* Lol.
☆☆★☆☆★
I walked in, few people in the class ‘coz i came early (serious student dat kin tin). I went through my notes ‘coz i don’t want to forget what i what taught, a lecturer may decide to give test anytime, failing exams not me by His Grace. One by one, two by three people arrives seated gisting, waiting for the lecturer.
Then class suddenly calmed, i raised my head to see the lecturer but it wasn’t him. You guessed right, its her, Mirabel. All eyes was on her as she gracefully walked in to the class. What an arrogant fellow in my mind. Shortly, the Accounting lecturer walked in and immediately ordered for the entrance door to be closed.
He wrote a new topic on the board saying we’d discuss about it today.
He started asking questions about about what we discussed on our previous lecture.
Lecturer: On our previous meeting, we discussed Cost, the types, and also Overhead Apportionment. Let’s refresh our memory a little. Class what is Cost and its types? Now close your notes and just put up your hand.
Promise stood up and answered it immediately.
Lecturer: Good. What is Overheard Apportionment?
*Silence
Lecturer: Didn’t we discussed it?
Class: We did
Lecturer: Then what’s happening?
*Silence
Lecturer: I would give you your test /20 -5marks this moment
*Murmuring
Lecturer: Shut up!! I hate dull class
That kind of statement always burst my brain or maybe most students. I was about to stand up before i heard an answering voice, it was Mirabel. (This will be good, now i’m ready)
Mirabel: Overhead Apportionment is the procedure whereby indirect cost are split fairly between cost centres.
Lecturer: The first stage of Overhead Apportionment? (referring to Mirabel).
Mirabel: *Silent
Lecturer: Anybody else?
I stood up to answer for the first time. Chai! big boy feeling nervous
Me: Sir, Overhead Apportionment involves the sharing out of common cost in an equitable way or proportion between the production and service department according to benefits they received. And the first stage of Overhead Apportionment is to identify all overhead cost as Production department, Administrative, Selling and Distribution Overhead.
Lecturer: Very good! What’s ur name
Me: Victor Sir
Lecturer: 5marks for You, give me your admission number.
I gave him, which he wrote down.
I could see how eyes were facing my direction, it made me feel uncomfortable, i just controlled myself till the end of the lecture.
Girl 1: Nice try dude, u saved us
Girl 2: Nna na u try pass
Girl 3: *smiles*
Well Well Well… i think i just earn myself a spot in the department.
I called my uncle to tell him i saw his missed call and message then thanked him, i also called my mum, we talked *********.
Promise: Mr. Man
Me: Young lady
Promise: I’m a lady jhoor
Me: Says who?
Promise: My physique
Me: Hhmmm igbo girl(I guess she wants me to check her out, right? Yea)
Promise: What?
Me: Nothing abeg, i’m really hungry
Promise: Lets go out na
Me: After you
Promise: Hhmmm
We got to an eatery, fed the warms in our stomach then walked back to class not after sighting that girl (Mirabel). Another lecturer came in to perform his duty. During his lectures, he asked questions which answering became a competition between Mirabel and I with contributions from Promise and others. The competition in the class impressed the lecturers alot, they acknowledged our department as an Intelligent department.
We the competitors Mirabel and I are yet to discover our limits. I’m the best in every course subject but maths, Hhmmm maths… just good in it with the help of Promise who was better. My limit was maths, i need to know her own limit.
Its Saturday, no lectures. I did my laundry, arranged my room, prepared something to eat, ate, rested, read my books then rested again using my phone to surf the internet, chatted on whatsapp, facebook, bbm till i got bored. I don’t know what else to do, i guess i needed some company but who?
I called Promise if she could come over but she went home for weekend. I called Titus if i could come over to his place but he wasn’t picking. D--n it! I need friends!! and a girlfriend!!!
I decided to call Esther, good thing i didn’t delete her number.
Esther: Hello
Me: How u doing?
Esther: Fine
Me: How’s ur day going?
Esther: Not too good
Me: What’s wrong?
Esther: What do u care
Me: I cared to call and asked whats wrong when u’re not in a good state
Esther: What about all this while?
Me: I’ve been sick, did u even try to check on me?
Esther: I didn’t know, i was waiting for your call
Me: Alright, where are u now?
Esther: Hostel
Me: I guess u’re feeling bored right?
Esther: Kind of
Me: Can u come over to my place?
Esther: Where?
Me: D.S.V off camp room 4
Esther: What do u have for me?
Me: What do u want?
Esther: Anything nice
Me: Alright, till u come
Ended the call, i went to purchase 3 noodles, 4 eggs, sardine and hollandia yogurt (D--n, see what Boriness cost me). I waited for 10mins before preparing the noodles then stood at my doorpost awaiting her arrival. She arrived, i ushered her in while she was sniffing like a dog.
Esther: What is this aroma i’m perceiving?
Me: Swear u don’t know
Esther: I can guess
Me: Have a seat
She sat down while i brought out a movie and inserted it into my laptop.
Esther: What movie is that
Me: You will know, just watch
Esther: I don’t like all those fighty fighty films
(Really? U must like e----c movies abi)
Me: Me too
I served the meal while we’re watching the movie. Series of romantic scenes were shown i noticed she was so still. After cancelling the meal, we paid more attention on the movie until the first part got finished.
Me: So… u like the movie?
Esther: Don’t tell me u don’t have the next part
Me: And if i don’t?
Esther: I will strangle u right now
Me: Are u sure u’re that powerful?
Esther: Ofcoz
Me: No part 2 *tongues out*
Esther: Aarrghh!
She jumped on me trying to harm me, while i seized the opportunity to caress her waist as she was on top of me. She moved up and down on me trying to harm me playfully sha. That stimulated vame to sprang up from its slumber. I was caressing all over her back, waist and thigh until i proceeded further by grabbing her a$$. That made her stopped what she was doing and looked me in the eyes while i did same, she didn’t say or do anything. So i Continued caressing her softly, i placed my two hands on her a$$ massaging it gently she didn’t do nothing. I held her waist and positioned her so i’d be on top, she kept staring at me like i charmed her or something. I kissed her cheek, then her neck severally, i kissed her lips but she didn’t respond to it. I’m not enjoying this, it even made vame shy. I pulled back and ask…
Me: Are u ok?
Esther: Are u done?
Wow! Vame immediately rise again and said Hell No!! I’m just getting starte… Didn’t complete the statement when she rushed me aggressively sucking my lips like a girlfriend who wants to please her boyfriend that just won a lottery.
I tried to catch up but she was too fast and wild… we continued for like a minute or two until she disengaged from the kissing to pulling off my shirt and my pants simultaneously then inserted vame into her mouth sucking it like a hungry child sucking momma’s b----t…
That wasn’t my plan at all, boriness not good at all. I took my bath after i saw Esther off then laid on my bed and reminisced how it went.
While sucking me, many thought start through my mind. I’m not really dating this girl and i’m about to do what i will later regret. I’ve always to be a good guy especially to girls, respect them and all. I know did many bad things back then, but now is the time for a change. Either i get a nice and loving girlfriend or abstain from s-x.
Me: (Withdrawing) Errmmm…
Esther: What is it?
Me: Don’t u think what we’re doing is wrong?
Esther: As in?
Me: I can’t do this, i’m sorry.
Esther: Are u being serious? Like seriously??
Me: Yea, seriously. I mean we aint even dating yet and we’re already doing what we are doing and about to
Esther: So… whats all this about?
Me: See I know started this and i’m sorry, but lets stop this and just be friends if its ok with u
Esther: Hhmmm… Mr. Nice guy. Ok oo
Me: So… friends?
Esther: Friends
Me: Cool, once again, i’m sorry
Esther: Its ok
We dressed up then i saw her off
D@mn, i don’t want to do that again or should i say i don’t want to get bored anymore. Then i realized that
An idle man is the devils workshop Indeed it is.
I just don’t want to be a bad guy, its not even about the advise of my relatives but for myself. I don’t want to be popular for bad deeds at all, i hope and pray God help me with my dreams for greatness.
★★☆★★☆
Walking on the streets to get what to eat, too tired to prepare anything then my phone rings

Bad guy straffed his bae, i almost did the same too but not my initial intention. I got to my suya spot and bought some, got myself yoghurt then headed home, my home or room whatever jare.
Sunday morning… i went to Church, the sermon and other activities was great. I met my parents, siblings and friends we exchanged pleasantries and all that. Time to go back to school, i went to dad to inform him, he said ok and some advise bla bla
he dipped his hand into his suit, brought out an envelope and gave it to me. I thanked him then went to my mum at their women fellowship meeting, told her i’d be on my way. She reached for her bag, brought out her purse and gave me some folded #500 notes (i collected it. Wait, what are u guys saying? that i shouldn’t collect again after getting from uncle and dad?? No way!!) 2Pac Shakur once said “I want my money in large amount, ‘coz every dollar counts” I love 2pac! Every naira counts jare.)
Woman: Is this Victor? (addressing my mum)
Mum: Yes, he is the one.
Woman: He’s grown so big already

Me: Ok ma, how are Richy, Flora, Dorothy and mama ma?
Woman: They’re all fine
Me: My greetings ma (except Dorothy)
Woman: Alright, they will certainly hear especially Richy and Dorothy
Me: (Doro what??!) Ok ma, bye ma.
I also bade my mum and every one else bye then went home. I only go to the family church once in a month or two as i went to the school’s Church.
*On my bed counting all the money* See why i need to keep to myself? not showing of my bad side? am i even bad? doesnt seem so, i just felt so) Enough money, that was when i thought of having t.v, dvd, home theatre, play station 3 (video game) and fridge filled with many things such as: lots of yoghurts, meats, milk, eggs, etc. And i got them all.
Resting on my bed listening to some old school hip-hop after a stressful day at school. We wrote two tests (Ofcoz i wrote well), a group presentation (i was the group leader, while Mirabel and Promise was also the group leader of theirs). The scores of the previous test we wrote was announced. Tests are 20/20 while other Lecturers set theirs 30/30. I scored 30 in English, 20 in introduction to business and 22/30 in maths. Promise scored 28 in English, 19 in introduction to business and 27/30 in maths. While Mirabel scored 22 in English, 20 in introduction to business and 27/30 in maths. She didn’t do well in English, but not enough to be her limit.
*Phone rings*

They have been coming to my place since i bought and told them about it. I just set it for them then took a walk out, not in the mood for video game that moment.
Walking on the street along the school road checking out the environment. Then i heard someone calling my name with an unfamiliar voice. I looked at the side where the voice was coming from, i saw two recognizable eve-like creatures waving at me from a car or their car.
My course mates, I went closer to them while they fold their arms and lean on their car.
Cynthia: Victor cant even hear his name again
Tola: Did she break your heart?
Me: She who? my heart fit break?
*Both laughs*
Tola: Hwfa

Cynthia: What about your room? Or your roommate won’t allow it??

Cynthia: That class sef, the noise and distractions emanating from those students would a hindrance. U should come to our place

They both gave me a hug with that they zoomed off leaving me with my thoughts.
I got to my room, the guys are gone already leaving my room tattered like a robbed place. I no blame them sha, na me want friends. Seriously this kind of thing piss me off, i can never do anyhow in someone’s room, Some people are just stupid.
I re-arranged my room and discovered some items are missing. Two pairs of shoes, cap, my expensive wrist watch and my reserved yoghurts. Chai! See why i don’t make male friends, this friendship must stop after i retrieve my stuffs,,, i will only dash them the yoghurts with red eye sha.

The next day in school, i went early and read my books as usual preparing for any unplanned test as i hate to fail.
No test was conducted just normal lectures. Other test scores was announced and i did perfectly well especially in accounting that caught the attention of everyone towards me because its very difficult for them mostly the quantitative part. The accounting lecturer walked in and announced that he’s done with the lectures for the semester and…he shared the test scripts one after the other but i didn’t hear my name. He shared all its only one paper remaining in his hand. I was expecting him to ask *If u didn’t hear your name put up your hand* but he didn’t which got me scared… of course i wrote his test what is happening?
Lecturer: I’m very disappointed with your performance in the test. U only did well on the theory part but the quantitative side…. very bad.
*Murmuring*
Lecturer: Its only one person that saved this class and i urge you all to find a way to understand it before the commencement of the exam. Because if u fail, i will fail u that’s the truth. I wont help one person and leave the others, if i should help i will help all of you.
Students: Thank you sir
Lecturer: Where is Victor?
Me: Sir!
Lecturer: Come out here.
Me: (walking to his side with my heart beating with questions -what did i do? -why is he calling me out? Chai! In front of everyone? Lord Jesus help me o as U always have)
Lecturer: Class this gentleman here scored 30/30 which i think nobody else scored above 20.
Wow! I was like not even Mirabel? Awesome! That moment eh… my head was floating on my shoulders, my heart was beating faster than the best drummer, my teeth was shaking like i’m deep inside the pacific ocean, my legs became soo weak like i was going to collapse, my eyes was facing everyone but i wasn’t seeing anyone.
The Lecturer advises me in front of the class to keep it up, that i should not slack this and that bla bla bla…
After that he gave me my script and ask me to go back to my seat, he also advises the class using me as a point to encourage them. He wished us best of luck, bade us goodbye then left.
I noticed some girls eyeing me, some guys hailed me and shake hands with me. One girl walked to me open my hands and buried something in it, she didnt say anything, she just smiled and left. I opened my hands immediately and saw a small piece of paper, i unfold it and saw a number with an inscription ‘Call Me’. All this while i remained on my seat I couldn’t stand up that moment because of fear of collapsing. I have been waiting for Promise to come and rescue me by walking me out of here but she was nowhere to be found, she followed the accounting lecturer out, why? I dunno. I don’t know what moved my head as it turned 190° and guess whose eyes i jammed? You guessed right maybe not but it was Mirabel. She was frowning at me in an unfriendly manner,,, next thing i saw was her standing up hissing then went out. That made me feel bad, i never wanted anyone to hate me or dislike me in any manner,,, i now have the urge to make peace with her so my mind would be at peace. But, how do i do that??
☆☆☆☆☆
Me: Where did u go and what kept u so long?
Promise: Ah ah…As your girlfriend or what? see me o…
Me: So we’d leave here together na
Promise: Alright lets go, shall we?
*Walking out*
Me: So… when would u prepare the meal u said u would prepare for me?
Promise: Don’t worry, soon
Me: Still looking forward to that
Promise: Hhmmm
Me: U will prepare it before me, so maybe i’d learn. That means u are coming to my place.
Promise: No no no
Me: Why?
Promise: I dunno but no
Me: Ok
Promise: I will just prepare it and bring it to you
Me: No no no
Promise: What? why?
Me: Prepare it at my place or no deal
Promise: Ok sir. I just hope say no girl go warn or harm me
Me: Which girl? i no know for you o
*Laughs*
We got to a place where we took our different rout.
Now walking alone to my house abi room sef…
*Phone rings
Me: Hello
Caller: Hi handsome how u doing?
Me: I’m doing well,,,,,sorry who is this?
Caller: Its Lola
Me: Oh Lola, i didn’t know its u
Lola: Yea, u don’t have my number
Me: Right
Lola: So… do you mind coming over?
Me: Ok, i’m on my way to my lodge now, i will be there in an hour or two is that OK?
Lola: Perfect!
Me: Alright then
Lola: We will be expecting u handsome byee…
Me: Bye.
Chai! this one that she’s adding handsome, hope i’m save.
Getting closer to my lodge i saw a familiar car parked in front of my lodge… getting more closer i saw two familiar people leaning and discussing around the car. I closed up the distance to my room and found someone standing in front of my room… next thing i heard was “Hi Victor” i was damned surprised.
I closed up the distance to my room and found someone standing in front of my room… next thing i heard was…
Mirabel: Hi Victor
Me: (Like seriously? am i dreaming or what?? Mirabel??? How did she even locate my room???) Hi Mirabel
Mirabel: Hhmmm… he even knows my name
Me: Yes i do, what are u doing here?
Mirabel: Just to talk
Me: About what?
Mirabel: Why do u hate me?
Me: * Laughing in my mind I don’t know what you’re talking about
Mirabel: Really?
Me: Yea
Mirabel: Why don’t u talk to me then? u make friends with people, those girls and all, while u snub me whenever u walk pass. And you’re also trying to make me look like a fool in the class by answering questions with more details whenever i attempted… tell me why you’re being like this? Yet people say you’re cool.
Me: (Chai! Where do i start from?) Listen, i have no negative intention towards u at all… everything u just said is coincidental i must say. I mean, i don’t even know u so… why would i be mean towards u? Its crazy, it doesn’t make any sense.
Mirabel: What about the snubbing?
Me: Well, that… i dunno, just that i don’t want to be embarrassed or even feel embarrassed at all.
Mirabel: What do u mean by that?
Me: U know i’m talking about class, sophistication. I saw how u treat those guys,,, made me think you’re arrogant.
Mirabel: Can we go to somewhere and talk?
Me: U mean now?
Mirabel: Yea
Me: I just got here, i need to rest little
Mirabel: May i come in?
Me: (What?! Sh!t No!) See, uhmm… how about we talk some other time? I really need to rest now
Mirabel: Very well then…. its ok, and ermm… sorry for coming unannounced.
*My phone rings*
Me: Its okay…
Mirabel: Alright, see u around
Me: U too
She left with her bodyguards while i answer my call
Me: Hello
Lola: Hi handsome, are u on your way already?
Me: About to, let me just take care one or two things first
Lola: Ok, make sure u don’t eat anything before coming ok?
Me: What? Why??
Lola: Hey, easy there food lover, just don’t eat before coming over ok?
Me: Hhmmm… ok
Lola: Good boyy… take care of your whatever and come here ASAP
Me: Alright
*Hangs up*
See? This is exactly what i was trying to avoid in the first place… Promise!! See what your advise got me into?! I don’t want to go back to who i was with the girls… now its happening again. If person no fine, dem go say him no fine. If person know book na girlogical and sexaddiction problem, if him no know na academical and illiteracy problem. Chai!
I open my door, got in, off my clothes and removed everything in my pockets then saw the number that girl gave to me earlier. I don’t even know if i should call her or not, i just kept it one side hoping i would forget it.
So… that girl said i should not eat abi? I hope they have a better food for me ‘coz i don’t joke with my food at all. I took my bath and got myself ready to go there… the shoes i was supposed to wear, those yeye friends of mine took it already. I just dressed casually, took my accounting note and head out thats after i took a bottle of yoghurt with me, sipping it along the way.
☆☆☆☆☆
The bike guy dropped me in front of the gate, i paid him he zoomed off while i called Lola to inform her. She came out in less than a minute putting on a mini-shirt with a tight transparent short and gave me a tight hug, then ushered me in. Wow! Look at the environment filled with exotic cars, so beautiful with flowers all over, they got swimming pool, awesome! Thats something that’d motivate me to come next time ‘coz i love swimming. Walking with her to their lodge with her holding my arms like a girl welcoming her fiance to her parent’s house.
Getting closer, i sighted the 1st class wing, i didn’t get the full visuals though, but it was splendid.
We got into their apartment, i was like ‘students living in a family house?’
Cynthia rushed to give me a hug wearing a bra-like shirt with ah bum short chai! What is their plan?!
I sat down, as in they put me in their middle bombarding me gists, u know erm… this eh… that this… that that bla bla bla…
ME: Ok ermm… lets get to business
Lola: Come on… u just got here
Cynthia: And its your first time of coming here. So… we have to treat you well don’t u think?
They told me to relax, which i tried to but i wasn’t that comfortable. They both went inside.
*Phone rings*
Me: Hello
Caller: Hi Victor, its Mirabel.
Me: Hi Mirabel, how u doing?
Mirabel: I’m Okay… I guess you’ve rested alot. Uhmm… are u at your place? So i could come over so we’d talk or we can we go somewhere else.
Me: Uhmmm… I’m not around. I’m actually at a friend’s place.
Mirabel: Would you be there for long?
Me: Yes i guess. We’re busy with some stuffs (sh!t, i used we)
Mirabel: We?
Me: Yea, my friends
Mirabel: Ok
Cynthia and Lola walks in*
Me: Yea
Mirabel: See u tomorrow
Me: U too
*Hangs up*
They came in with food and orange drink. Wow! that got me excited and felt relaxed ‘coz i was really hungry. Instead of using the dinning, they chose to use the floor then Lola dragged me to the floor. Cynthia opened it, wow! Fried rice and lots of chicken.
Lola: This food is specially made for u, so eat alot
Me: The food looks good, it will surely be delicious, can’t wait to devour this ‘coz i’m f√cking hungry.
Oopss! I didn’t know when the word ‘f√cking’ came out from my mouth sh!t.
Lola: Ughnnn…. see who’s talking dirty
Me: Uhrmm…
Cynthia: Don’t worry, we won’t hold it against u. It actually sounds sexy.
(Can I please eat this food? Like now??)
Me: *Silent*
Cynthia: C’mon lets eat
(Finally!)
Lola served the meal, putting a small quantity of food in each plate. I was like ‘I no be ajebo like una o wey no dey eat much, put food for me jare’.
We started eating… before i take a piece into my mouth, they’d both feed me with theirs then give me a glass of juice to sip. It got me uncomfortable ‘coz i wasn’t enjoying eating it one by one, its so lame. Let them leave me to eat this food in peace jare hia! Even husband and wife with fresh flowing love wouldn’t have time for this nonsense.
At last, they became full after eating what a 3 years old kpako pikin would eat ×3, their fada!
I kept eating, finished two plates, requested for more, eat again, drank more juice i wish they brought yoghurt, i ate the meat eh… like it was my first time of eating it, but seriously i love food, especially the delicious ones and i’m never shy when it comes to food. I almost finished all the food they brought before i got full.
Cynthia: Wow! Victor!! U want to kill yourself?!
Lola: U eat like this?
Me: You have no idea… *Using tooth pick*
Cynthia: Woah… is this how u really eat?
Me: Not really sha, i do eat normally. But, if a food like this one is brought to me? I uncontrollably lost control.
Cynthia: Hhmmm
Me: Thanks for the meal, u guys are great cook.
Lola: U can get more of it whenever u want (*With a sexy look and voice*)
Me: That’d be great!
Cynthia went inside while Lola came closer to me. She sat right beside me with her leg crossed rubbing my back, she then proceeded to offing the buttons of my shirt, she began rubbing the hairs of my chest down to my tommy.
Lola: So… did u really enjoy the food? *In a seductive voice*
Me: Yea sure, absolutely
Lola: Since u ate much, i guess its given u some strength *Seductively*
Me: Thats right (coded already)
She began using her crossed leg to rub my leg smiling seductively. I didn’t say or do anything, i was just there looking around, my coolness that moment made me look like a complete amateur towards reacting to a lady. The way she also react towards me, made to think that she’s thinking that i’m an amateur, like me being the gentle-intelligent guy type. She kept doing that until Cynthia came back holding a tray containing a fine bottle and three wine glass.
Cynthia: Guys,,, who care for some champagne?
Lola: Me!
They both stared at me with a written look on their face like “What about you?”
Me: *Silent, just looking at them with a coy smile*
Lola: Bring it girl!
Cynthia brought it and *kpoop* she opened it,,, i watch them screaming in excitement. She handed me a glass and pour some for me, for Lola and for herself. I have never seen a champagne before more to talk of tasting it. I took a sip, it didn’t taste bad then i drank it all. Lola added another one for me when i didn’t ask for more. I finished it within a short time.
Cynthia: Huunnnn…. he’s enjoying it. Lola give him more.
What?! More?!! When they’re still on their first glass?!!!….What are they thinking? I remember when i was eating, they questioned me if was going to kill myself ‘coz i’ve had alot. Now, they want me to drink alot? To get me drunk?? Way!!
Lola: *About to refill my glass*
Me: No no no its Ok, i’m Ok
Lola: Common… don’t be shy, drink its ok
Me? Don’t be shy??
Me: No seriously i’m Ok
Cynthia: Just a little more dear
Me: Nop, not anymore
Lola: Oh poor baaby… (she came seating on my laps, she begin to caress my hair while rubbing her a$$ on the territory of vame)
Cynthia stood up, switch on the music, she came close to me, doing some sexy moves like a stripper while Lola now felt more comfortable in twisting her a$$ up and down, left and right on vame’s territory and i think its about to get angry ‘coz of the invasion of its territory.
Lola: *Whispering to my ears in a seductive tone* Do u like what you’re seeing?
I didn’t say anything, i have to leave now or restart what i had ended.
Cynthia came over to me, she slowly unbuckled my belt trying to off my trousers or something. Its either i leave now or never…
I was about to get them off me in a gentle manner before i heard the ringtone of my phone. It was Promise, she brought me into this, now she’s my heroine.
Lola: Don’t pick it up (you say?)
Me: I have to.
I picked up
Me: Hello
Promise: How u doing?
Me: What?! When??! How???!
Promise: What are u saying, are u ok?
Me: Ok! I will be on my way right away.
Promise: Hey!!
I hanged up the call.
Me: Guys, i have to go now
Lola: Why? What happened??
Me: My father collapse and he’s been taking to the hospital. I have to go there now * arranging myself*
Cynthia: Hope its not that serious?
Me: I dunno yet
Cynthia: Ok, just take it easy
Me: Yea
Lola: Maybe we should drop u up (what?!)
Me: U guys would need to dress up and i don’t have the time to wait
Lola: Alright, hoping to see u tomorrow
Me: Ok (keep hoping) Bye!
I rushed out immediately running towards the gate before i heard my name with a familiar voice, and it was from the first class wing. I turned around to see someone, she was surprised while i was shocked….
Mirabel: Victor?
Me: Hi Mirabel…
Mirabel: What are u doing here?
Me: Wow what a surprise, U live here? (Trying to change the topic)
Mirabel: Yea
Me: Woah… Nice environment u got here
Mirabel: Thank U
Me: So… are u going out or something?
Mirabel: No, not at all
Me: I thought u are, u know… seeing u dressed like this
Mirabel: No I’m not, just felt like taking a walk
Me: I see… Thats good
Mirabel: Yea,,, so your friends live around here?
Me: U know what? how about we take a walk together?
Mirabel: I’m exhausted already,,, i just came back before i saw u. Would u like to come in to my place?
Me: I’d like to,,, but its getting late already U know, i need to go now. Wait, how did u get my number and my address?
Mirabel: Okay then, see u tomorrow *Walks away*
Didn’t she hear my question? I was about to call her back but i lost my voice, i just walked out, took a bike headed to my room.
I laid on my bed with so many thoughts running in my head.
Lola and Cynthia might be dangerous to my new personality, i mean they almost breach my decision in abstaining from freestyle s£x. That was a close call earlier today, i won’t deny the fact that, those girls were super hot… they got all the features that every dirty-minded guy would desire. If i should remember my days back in secondary school from primary, i wouldn’t have believed that i could resist such thing ever. Back when i was the baddest with my guy Peter aka Nextangel whom i brought into the game. As at now, if anything should kill Nextangel, it would be the thing or the path that he passes through into this world.
I made a fool out of Promise, it wasn’t intentional na, it was just to save myself from the temptations of the daughters of eve. So… i’d explain to her or better still, appease her.
Mirabel, hmmm… I think she’s not happy with me. I diverted her questions twice ‘coz i don’t want to lie. I didn’t agree to go into her place when she offered. I didn’t even know why i asked her the question about how she got my number and address, but hey…i need to know ‘coz its a misery to me. Is she doing some background check on me or what? I remember when she said that ” Yet people say you’re cool”. I need to make it up to her.
Those useless friends of mine Titus, Pizzaro and Frankkay haven’t bring back what they took from me yet, we shall meet at school tomorrow.
I’ve ate a lot already, so… no need to prepare another food. But that won’t stop me from drinking some yoghurt.
☆☆☆☆☆
The first semester examination is around the corner, some Lecturers are done with us remaining just few.
In the absence of no lectures at the moment, i sat down at a corner reading where there is less noise.
Promise: Hey!
Me: *Smiling* Hi Promise
Promise: Whats wrong with u?
Me: Nothing really, u look pretty today whats up? (I know she loves compliments)
Promise: Answer me!
Me: C’mon now u think i’m flattering u right?
Promise: Leave me
Me: U know i don’t say such thing everyday
Promise: I hear u
Me: U look beautiful today
Promise: I said i’ve heard u * Blushing*
Me: I didn’t hear u say ‘Thank U’
Promise: Thank U! Happy now?
Me: Why would i be happy? U should be happy
Promise: Hhmmm…
Me: U know what?
Promise: * Silent*
Me: U know What!
Promise: What!
Me: Smiles
Promise: What na?
Me: Alright, U are my friend and U’re pretty. I’m thinking of giving U a nick
Promise: Nick kwa!
Me: Yea
Promise: Nick like?
Me: PMS
Promise: Are u joking?
Me: U don’t like it?
Promise: Of course i don’t
Me: Hhmmm, what about ermm… Prom?
Promise: What? Are u kidding me?
Me: U like it?
Promise: Hell no! U want others to be making fun of me by calling me ‘Prom Queen’ or even ‘Prom night’? No way!!
Me: What about… Prommy?
Promise: U know what?
Me: What?
Promise: Keep your nick, I’m fine with my name
Me: C’mon don’t be like that
Promise: Why won’t i be? Prommy?? Mummy?? Mammy??
Me: Alright forget it
Promise: Yea
Me: Wait a minute..
Promise: What now?!
Me: Would U want me to be calling U ‘Promzy’?
Promise: Hhmmm…
Me: What? U still don’t like it?!
Promise: It actually sounds nice
Me: So…??
Promise: I like it… yea, call me Promzy
Me: Promzy?
Promise: Yea?
We both laughed*
Me: Alright, Promzy it is
Promzy: Yea
We read together for about two hours before rounding up. Promzy left to go and take care of something while I went to look for Mirabel. I spotted her at the Eatery she normally went to. I don’t want to go in there so I waited for her around her car.
After many minutes of waiting, next thing i heard was…
Male Bodyguard: Hey! What are U doing there?
Me: Noth…
Female Bodyguard: Shut up! Show me where U fixed the bomb now!
Me: What bomb? I’m not a terrorist
Male: Come here!!
He rushed me aggressively about to harm me or something when…
Mirabel: Whats going on here Frank? Jummy…??
Frank: Miss… Sorry Mirabel, this guy looks suspicious… we saw him very close to the vehicle, we’re trying to know what he’s doing.
Mirabel: Haven’t U guys seen him before??
Frank: Yes we have
Jummy: We’ve seen him before ma, but everyone is a suspect considering the fact that you’re the pr…
Mirabel: Alright thats enough!!
Jummy: Yes ma
Mirabel: Excuse us
*They step aside*
Mirabel: What do U want Victor?
(Chai! This girl is really mad at me)
Where do i start explaining from?
What do i tell her??
Wait, Why is she even mad at me???
Me: I thought maybe we should hang out and maybe get to know each other
Mirabel: Not interested
Me: Oh… I thought U wanted to talk all this while, why the sudden change?
Mirabel: What do U take me for Victor? what are u thinking?? That I’m some kind of girl U think U can be turning around like I’ll always be around !???
Me: I dunno what you’re talking about
Mirabel: Yea right how’d U know
Me: I’m really sorry about all that, I know i’ve been on a distance I’m honestly here to make it up to U
Mirabel: And how do U intend to do that?
Me: We could go to a nice place. U know, where they got a swimming pool, nice views and even good food what do U think?
Mirabel: I think, instead of ‘We’, how about U take me?
Me: Huh?
Mirabel: U drive?
Me: Yea
Mirabel: Come pick me up by 7pm
Me: What? But…
Mirabel: Shhh… No but.
Guys…!!! *They came, she walks into her car as i watch her*
Mirabel: Don’t keep me waiting…
That’s the last thing i heard her say through the car’s window before they zoom off.
Wait wait wait… she mean i should come with a car? How do i do that when i don’t have one?? Or i should go home and take my dad’s??? Tarr! Not a chance!! My dad will never let me take his car. He’d think i would sell it ‘coz my dad don’t trust me the way everyone else does. U know why?? ‘Coz i took after him and he knew it. As in, being a big time pretender, doing stuff secretly without the knowledge of anyone, physically gentle and shy but what is in my mind is greater than what anyone can imagine. So… only my dad knows me a little but on a second thought, am i still bad? I don’t think so, that was then.
Maybe i should rent a car. But renting a classy car for her type would cost me a lot and i hate spending money like that.
Does she want me to spend on her? No na, its totally absurd. I mean, by looking at her, she’s got everything she want. Abi na runs girl? No na, it sounds crazy, i saw how she reject those big boiz with flashy cars and what does a runs girl needs bodyguards for? Not just one but two. Wait, bodyguards? Is she sh… wait a minute, what? Is she doing Politicians?? Maybe they provided her the bodyguards, got her first class apartment at VIPI. Maybe thats why she don’t have time for those boiz hmmm… but she’s intelligent na. Lemme not jump into conclusions yet, i should get to know her first.
I left school and left for Titus’s place to get back what they took from me. It’s not a crime to get back what is mine is it?
☆☆☆☆☆
I got there but he wasn’t around, where could he be? Its either the brothel or at the bar. I can’t go there, so… i hit the road.
I remembered when i was bringing nextangel to the game when he was still a learner, i took him to the brothel to do ugh u know…
We got there, i arranged one for him while i took the next one closest to nextangel’s. During the sampling, i heard a loud yell from nextangel’s room and it says…
Girl: Get out ****** my friend!
After i was done, i got out and saw nextangel already out. On walking out of the place, the following conversation took place…
Me: Guy wetin happen that time na?
Nextangel: Omoh no be small tin o…
Me: Wetin happen??
Nextangel: Guy! I dey do the girl dey do her with all my power o..
Me: Eh hen…
Nextangel: U know wetin she dey do all those while?
Me: Wetin?
Nextangel: I dey do with all the power wey i get and she busy dey chop rice.
I burst into laughter…
Me: U see? Na’im make i dey tell u make u dey learn from me
Nextangel: E no finish there o…
Me: Continue na
Nextangel: When i dey do, she go dey ask me every seconds whether i never finish?
Me: hahahaha… why na?
Nextangel: I no know o.. e be like say i no reach. She ask me the question for like 13 times. The last one na’im she provoke. I just hear ‘Get out on my toto my friend’! . Na run i run comot from there o…
Me: That means u no pay her?
Nextangel: I pay before i start na
Me: Next time, u no go take fat ashe..
Nextangel: Omoh… i must sabi ‘am or die trying…
I laughed that day like mad, but now he’s the baddest no thanks to me.
I took a bike to my room, to rest and think of how i’d take Mirabel out with a car. I got there, i saw a car parked in front of the building not familiar at all but it was the type of car i’ve always admired “Range Rover Sport” I went close to my door, i didn’t see no one. I opened my door and got in, i off my clothes and jumped on my bed to relax before preparing what to eat. On resting, i saw an unusual piece of paper beneath my door. I took it and opened it, what i saw shocked me.
It read…
“CHECK UNDER THE LEFT SIDE OF THE CAR’S TIRE TO GET THE KEYS…
REMEMBER, DON’T KEEP ME WAITING”
Wow! This is Awesome!!
Today’s gon’ be great! Well i hope it does. Wait i don’t understand, what is she to me? Are we friends already?? Where is this heading to??? Hhmmm…
I was so excited that moment, why i was so excited? I’m gon’ drive a Range Rover Sport baaby!
I rushed out immediately to test it… i got there, checked under the tire and got the keys, entered the car then start it. Its been a while since i drive so… i should be careful. I moved the car believe me it was awesome! what ah ride!! Wait… Am i going for a date or what?
I got back in, no need for me to prepare anything to eat, i’d just have a yoghurt. Exam is around the corner, i need to go home and get more money ‘coz i guess i’d spend alot today.
*Phone rings* | *Caller Lola*
Me: Hi Lola
Lola: Victor, whats up with u?
Me: I’m fine
Lola: No, not that. Why Haven’t we heard from u?
Me: Oh… i’ve been busy really
Lola: Is that so?
Me: Yea
Lola: U know… why don’t u come around so we’d hangout
Me: Ermmm…
Lola: What?
Me: I’m kinda going out to see a friend
Lola: By that, u mean Mirabel?
Me: What are U talking about?
Lola: Never mind, its nothing…
Me: But u were tr…
Lola: (Interrupted) Gat to go, see ya
Me: Lola wait…
*Hangs up*
Ok now i’m totally confused, Whats going on? How the hell did she know?? I hope I hope its… well we’ll see.
I took my bath, did the necessaries and got myself ready wearing one of my nicest clothe. I looked myself in the mirror, damÎ ! I look good also smelling nice while its not even a date or like going out with my girlfriend hmmm…
I took a bottle of yoghurt, got out, locked my door then went to the side of the car, no one was there to give me some shots so i took some selfies. I ignited the car, off i left for the bank to withdraw some money before going to Mirabel’s place.
On the road listening to some cool vibes, smooth driving chai! Big boy kowai!
I got to the gate of their building and called Mirabel, after a few minutes the gate open. Who opened it? Her two bodyguards of course. I guess i forgot their names already. I saw how the male one was looking at me, not a good way though it was like when an enemy is looking at his opponent. I no send ‘am jare, no be just guard him be? See me driving rangey abegi!
They directed me to Mirabel’s place, omoh… no wonder its first class. The surrounding was awesome, well maintained, clean, gardens, the swimming pool was awesome. Can’t mention everything jare… the lady guard ushered me in while the male one was behind me looking like something i dont know infact i don’t like him.
The lady guard told me that Mirabel is inside, that she’d be with me shortly. She told me to seat but didn’t, i chose to look around her beautiful home. Who is her father or mother by way that got her all these as a student. Looking at the pictures on the wall, there i saw a portrait of our newly elected President and its not even his official picture. I saw a portrait which seems to be her family picture, i was about to go closer to get a proper view before she called me from behind.
Mirabel: Victor…?
I slowly turned around and saw her the way i’ve never done before. Mehn… she looked beautiful, she stuns in the dress she wore. I didn’t know when my mouth open and said something unintentionally…
Me: U look gorgeous
Mirabel: Thanks dear
But i’m glad i did…
Me: U got a nice place here
Mirabel: Thanks
Me: So ermmm… Are u ready?
Mirabel: Yea, U’re right on time
Me: Hhmm… shall we?
Mirabel: *Smiles* Sure
She told her bodyguards to stay back but the male one tried to object. She shouted at him which shut his mouth. I really dunno whats wrong with that guy, when i burst him face eh… he go know.
We got to the car, i opened the door for her, she thanked me.
Mirabel: So… where are u taking me to?
Me: Where would u like?
Mirabel: Remember u are the one that’s taking me out
Me: Yea
Mirabel: Then take me out
Me: Hhmm… Yes ma
We gisted a lot before getting to our destination, like the car being borrowed to be returned tomorrow or next. I got out from the car and she is still in. I just laughed and shake my head before opening the door for her. On stepping down, she smiled while thanking me.
We got into the place i took her, it was a nice place which i’ve never been before. I only saw it while passing by and wish to there someday. Well… today is the day, Thank God.
I drew the chair for her to seat, i guess i’ve watched too many romantic movies to be acting this romantic.
An attendant came over to us and handed us the menu to select.
She ordered fried rice and chicken with red wine. I love fried rice, so i ordered same.
We were served the meal, we started eating and talking at the same time. One talk led to another then we arrived at this….
Mirabel: I actually know what happened that day between U, Lola and Cynthia.
Me: I dunno what u’re talking about
Mirabel: U don’t need to pretend, they told me everything. The food, their sexy acts to seduce u, your gentle and coolness, the call?
Me: What?
Mirabel: And I’m 100% sure that the call was fake. U made that up just to run away from them…
Me: So they are your friends?
Mirabel: My best friends
Me: I dunno what to say
Mirabel: U don’t have to say anything, actually i want to confess
Me: What?
Mirabel: I just hope u wont get mad if i should tell u this
Me: Well i will if u don’t tell me
Mirabel: Ok, i actually… ermmm… i’m the brain behind all what happen between U and the girls
Me: Huh?
Mirabel: I sent them to u the first time u met them to get your number and address. Everything that follows was planned and I’m really sorry
Me: But why did u do that?
Mirabel: Because… i found myself liking u already. I tested you with my friends to know how gentle you are ‘coz i don’t want to be with a bad guy and go through another heartbreak… please understand me Victor
Me: Woah… just wow! I never saw this coming
Mirabel: I know its hard to believe but its true and as it is right now… i trust u.
Me: I’m sooo lost of words right now like seriously
Mirabel: I’m in love with you Victor…
*My eyes opened wide*
☆☆☆☆☆
We alighted from the car in front of her apartment, i walked her to the door then i held her hand which she faced me eyes to eyes. She then put her both hands round my neck while i placed my hands on her waist… our heads drew nearer, our eyes closed, slowly our lips locate the other..…………
Our lips was about to touch the other before one mumu is it Frank or whatever the name Mirabel called him interrupted the mood…
Frank: Miss Mirabel, your father wish to speak with you (handing her a phone)
We adjusted ourselves when we heard his horrible voice. He really doesnt like me neither did i like him, he really s√cks.
Mirabel: (collected the phone, looking at him with an angry eye)
*Hello dad
I can’t hear the caller, just Mirabel
*I Just went for a walk
*No Dad, i don’t walk with them, besides i didn’t go that far
*With my friends
*Yes Dad
*OK Dad
*I Love U too Dad
*Hangs up*
Mirabel: (handed him the phone) U may leave
He left without saying a word, but the way he looked at me says it all.
Does he think he can scare me? This guy no know me oh… make him forget say he huge anyhow and i small. Small body no be sickness at all, i go i go i go just hmmm… the guy too big sha.
Mirabel: Sorry about that
Me: No its nothing, U had to speak with your Dad I understand
Mirabel: So…??
Me: Its getting late already, i guess i should hit the road now
Mirabel: Its not that late, or u can crash here if u want
Me: That wont be necessary, I need to take care of some things at home
Mirabel: Ok *Sad face*
Me: So uhmm…. i will return the car tomorrow?
Mirabel: U can keep it longer if u want
Me: (I looked at the car) No no no, i will just return it tomorrow
Mirabel: C’mon i insist *Smiling | holding my hands*
Me: Really?
Mirabel: Yes of course
Me: What about the owner?
Mirabel: Lemme worry about that
Me: Alright, thanks for this…
Mirabel: Its Ok
Me: Yea, so urrmm… good night?
Mirabel: Seems so
I moved my head closer to her, she closed her eyes drawing her lips closer, i just gave her a kiss on her cheek.
Me: Good night
Mirabel: Good night
I walked backwards facing her while moving to the car. I faced the car, got in, started the engine then got out. So many thoughts popping around my mind…
-Did i acted too gentle to her?
-Would she be pleased with it or get bored?
-What if i had slept in her apartment?
-Did she get disappointed when i didn’t kiss her?
-Am i moving too slow?
-Is she still testing my integrity?
I have got to know about girls but this one is really something else, i can’t understand Mirabel. She’s different, there is something about her which i need to know, my heart beats when i’m around her. Is it that i’m shy? ‘Coz my heart only beat when i’m scared, but never beat because of girls.
I branched a store to purchase some items ‘coz my packaged water (pure water) butter, air freshener, yoghurt, detergents and some other things are almost exhausted. I got them then headed home direct.
I got home, parked the car very well i even put some heavy things around the car before going into my room.
I opened my fridge and got myself a bottle of Yoghurt then laid on my bed to rest while i reminisced on how my day went…
***BACK IN THE RESTAURANT***
Mirabel: I love U Victor
Me: (to distract the mood) Wow! This food really taste good, what do u think Mirabel?
Mirabel: Yea, its good.
Me: Go on keep eating…
We continued eating speechless,,, she excused herself going to the rest room, then came back to eat after spending a couple of minutes.
After eating, the attendant came to pack the dishes…
Me: How much is the bill?
Attendant: Its been taken care of
Me: By who?
He faced Mirabel, I also face her, she just smiled… well, that answered the question. I guess she paid it when she excused herself.
Me: Why did u do that?
Mirabel: I don’t want u to spend all your money on me
Me: But i wasn’t complaining
Mirabel: U didn’t have to
Me: Hhmmm…
Mirabel: Shall we leave now?
Me: Yea, hmmm…
We left the there, got to the car, i opened the door for her then we left.
I got to the fuel station to get some fuel.
Attendant: How many litres?
Me: 8 litr…
Mirabel: 20 litres (she interrupted)
I looked at her, she faced another direction smiling. I didn’t say anything. After the refuelling, she still paid for the fuel. This girl is really something, thats how we got back to her place before that human animal spoilt the mood.
<<<***NOW***>>>
I off my clothes and put on something light then I checked my phone that has been silent all this while and saw missed calls, from Promzy, Titus, Esther and Mirabel few minutes ago. I guess she wants to know if i’ve gotten home. What does that idiot Titus want? I will just call Mirabel today and talk to the rest tomorrow ‘coz i’m really tired now.
I dialled Mirabel’s number, it rang and she picked it almost immediately.
Mirabel: Hi
Me: Hi
Mirabel: Are u home already?
Me: Yea
Mirabel: I called but i guess u were still driving then
Me: Yea, i actually stopped by a store to get some stuffs
Mirabel: Its alright
Me: Yep
Mirabel: Ok I just called to know if u got home save
Me: Okay… Goodnight then
Mirabel: Goodnight
Me: Alright
*About to hang up*
Mirabel: Wait! Victor Wait!!
Me: Yes?
Mirabel: Its seems like You’re not comfortable around me
Me: Why’d you say that?
Mirabel: Yes na, you were just somehow, behaving like i’m new to u
Me: Its not like that
Mirabel: I dunno what else to think Victor… wait, do u like know anything about me?
Me: How do u mean?
Mirabel: U know… like my personality, relationship, family background and all that
Me: Well,,,no, none that i know of…
Mirabel: Okay…
Me: Or is there anything i should know?
Mirabel: No, not really,,, not yet actually
Me: Alright if u say so
Mirabel: Yea, but u can ask questions about me if u want
Me: Ok, that won’t be a problem
Mirabel: I mean anything at all
Me: Ok, Alright i will
Mirabel: Ok cute! Just know that u can feel free to ask me for anything and be very comfortable around me Ok?
Me: Yea, Ok
Mirabel: Good…! Ok, Bye Cute, Love ya!!
Me: Ok thanks Bye…
*I hang up immediately*
I can’t tell her that i love her na, what if its a lie? Like how i use to play the game before, no, no more lies, but would it be a lie? She is the first girl that made my heart beat. Doesn’t matter, i need to be sure.
Any dirty-minded guy would think that when a girl say such things as ‘U can ask for anything’ their mind would directly go for s£x, yea i know that ‘coz i was one of them. Go meet Nextangel and tell him that na, your ***** will never remain the same.
Its Saturday morning, i got up from bed, did my prayers as I thanked God for everything and asked him for many things. I did some push ups as its my daily routine, i did some cleaning, washing, such as my clothes, the car, and dishes which are not much.
I thought about going to our family Church tomorrow which is Sunday but, what about the car? Should I go with the car?? What am I going to tell whoever that ask me???
Or maybe i should just return the car, but what am I even going there for when i got enough money that’d last me till the end of the exams it will even remain ‘coz i don’t spend much. Wait’o… after Sunday is Monday, I will go to School with a car? not just any car, a Range Rover Sport?? No way! that will caught the attention of many people, me like being on a low key, then i will get unnecessary friends or what if those cult boys attack me and made away with the car… i don’t know if i should return it or leave it at home at Mr. Abuh’s house that has fence, gate and a gateman. Mirabel gave me her word that i can have the car as long as i want, that means she will be spending money everyday or maybe weekly for the car rent or is she the owner? No na, how can she be the owner besides she told me herself that it was rented. Hhmmm… ever since i met Mirabel, I have been cracking my brain so much either by making decisions or academically by studying so hard, when we were competing against each other. And I guess I’ve improved so much in changing my ways for better or lemme say I’ve changed already, I mean common i resisted two hot chicks the other day, I refused to contact that attributed girl that gave my her number, yea what about Esther? I don change jare, I pray never to go back to my old self. I always pray that let the will of God be done in my life.
Too tired already to prepare hard food, so i prepared some noodles to help me for the morning. I don’t even have any plans for the day, aish…
Yea, lemme call those that i missed their calls yesterday. I took my phone surprisingly no missed calls, only messages. Who else will send me message if not Mtn or 4100.
I dialled Promise’s number, but i was warned that i don’t have enough credit so I just flashed her.
I waited for about 7 minutes but she didn’t call back. I threw the phone on the bed while I laid on it.
I felt so bored, I took the phone again so I’d on my data chat on Whatsapp a little then check whats happening on facebook. I don’t like seeing message icon at the top of my phone’s screen, so I decided to just read the messages so that it will disappear from there. On seeing the messages, I almost thought that I was right when I thought it was messages from Mtn or 4100 as I saw their 2 messages each, until I saw a message from Mirabel, her own was even the first since 6:48 am and my current time was 9:17 am. I could hear my heart beating when I was about to open it.
It read…
Good Morning Cute, I know you will wake up to see this message so I thank God for that. I do hope U had a nice dream.
Just wan’ to let U know that, I’ll be coming to your place today, dunno what time specifically ‘coz I wouldn’t like to disappoint but I’m certain it’d be around afternoon time. Please, no need to prepare anything, I will be coming with lunch. Till then, Byee…Love ya!
All this Love ya Love ya of a thing sef, are we officially dating already? Me myself don’t even understand again. We have to talk about it, I have to give my consent on it. No no no no… I should start the relationship, I’m the guy and I have to talk to her then ask her to be my date. But I don’t think I’m ready yet, I don’t know what I feel yet, I don’t even understand my heart beat yet,,,, WHAT THA’ H£LL IS LOVE?
HOW DO I KNOW IT??
HOW CAN I FEEL IT???
SOMEBODY SHOULD TELL ME HOW TO LOVE!!!
I screamed out at the top of my voice.
☆☆☆☆☆
My phone ringtone woke me up from my slumber.
*Caller Promise*
Me: Promzy
Promise: Howfar
Me: I just dey
Promise: I saw your missed call
Me: When?
Promise: Didn’t U call me?
Me: I did call U but when did U saw it?

Me: U don dey get boyfriends up and down nau (teasingly)
Promise: *Laughs* no be only boyfriends. What about U? I called U yesterday but U didn’t pick up, where were U??
Me: I was driv… I was on my way on home
Promise: Hhmmm…

Me: U eh….if i catch U
Promise: Leave me jare, go and meet your olosho them
Me: Wetin?
Promise: Oppss… didn’t say nothing, byee…
Me: Promzy!
*Hangs up*
That girl eh… very stubborn, she’s almost a tomboy, if I catch her… she hasn’t even come to my place since I told her to.
*Car horns* | horns again*
Oh! I checked my time, its afternoon already… I think my visitor is here.
I got out and stood on my doorsteps, I saw her standing at the side of her car with her facing me. There, where she stood looking at me smiling, oh my goodness! she’s a beauty i just realised. Her stature, smiles, beauty, sophistication and uniqueness pleased me instantly. She really looks adorable, d--n… I think I’m in Love with this girl.
I stood there speechless, my mouth opened but no words came out, just staring at her that i got carried away.
Mirabel: Hey! Aint U gon’ welcome me?
Me: Oh! Sorry,,, i just, just ughh…
Mirabel: Sure U’re Ok?
Me: Yea sure… what about your guards?
Mirabel: Why? Will U kill me??
Me: Huh??
Mirabel: *Smiles* Just kidding,,, I left them to stay at home
Me: Why do U even have guards?
Mirabel: Are U gonna keep questioning me under the sun or U gon’ let me in?
Me: Sorry about that,,,, please come on in
Mirabel: Thank U *Letting Out A Simple Smile*
I ushered her in…
Me: Welcome, to where I lay my head
Mirabel: Hhmm… nice place
Me: Don’t even think of flattering me
Mirabel: I’m being serious, its clean and well kept
Me: Well its Saturday, I did some cleaning
Mirabel: Sure U did
Me: Please seat… (ushering her to the plastic chair)
Mirabel: Here should be better (seating on the bed) soft and cool
Me: Yea. I got yoghurt in the fridge, Care for some?
Mirabel: That won’t be necessary, I actually came with ah wine and some food,,, fried rice precisely, your favourite.
Hearing that, I got hungry instantly.
Me: How’d U know fried rice is my favourite?
Mirabel: *Smiles*
Me: Of course, who else if not Cynthia and Lola
Mirabel: Yea, they said U really love it, thats why I came with plenty of it.
Me: Hhmmm…. If I lay my hands on those friends of yours…
Mirabel: *Laughs* Don’t blame them, blame me. I was the one that sent them
Me: Really?
Mirabel: Yea, I’m in your house already, so… what U gon’ do to me?
(Where is she heading to?)
Me: Well, luckily… U came as my visitor
Mirabel: Is that so?
Me: Yea
Mirabel: What could U have done if U hadn’t seen me as a visitor?
Me: That’s for me to know… *Smiles*
Mirabel: Hhmmm…
Me: Yea
Mirabel: C’mon give me a clue
Me: No
Mirabel: Please…
Me: Nooo… (In Mercy Johnson’s voice)
Mirabel: Ok… I’m hungry, haven’t eaten today
Me: Why?
Mirabel: Nothing…
Me: Me too, haven’t eaten today
Mirabel: Why?
Me: Nothing…
I ate Indomie sha, I lied ‘coz I eat fried rice a lot no matter what, so… incase she sees me eating much, she’ll understand that I’m very hungry.
Mirabel: Ok, you’re hungry I’m hungry, food is here… lets eat
Me: Yea, we should.
She brought out the food from a big flask, she brought out the bottle of wine and something else…
Mirabel: Uhmm… I got this from the shop where I bought the wine on my way coming, thought U will like it
Wow! A gold wrist watch!!
Me: Woah… But U didn’t have to…
Mirabel: I know,,, but I couldn’t take my eyes off it when I saw it, I know it will suit U. Common, lets try it
She put it into my wrist
Mirabel: See? I told U, it really look good on U
Me: I really appreciate this, thank U very much.
Mirabel: U’re so welcome
There came a sudden loud silence, our eyes met, I caught her slowly licking her lips.
Me: Ok! Lets eat!!
Mirabel: Yea, lets eat
Me: Lemme get the plates
Mirabel: Ok, do that while I go get the wineglasses from the car
She went and get the glasses while I set the plates. She came back, looked at me somehow, she went to where I keep my utensils she then took a tray, dropped it on the floor. I was just looking at what she was doing. She opened the flask, full the tray with rice ignoring the plates on the floor.
Me: What are U doing?
Mirabel: Let’s eat from this… It will be fun
Me: Hhmm…
She filled the glass with wine. I don’t really enjoy eating rice with wine but with hollandia yoghurt.
Mirabel: Pray for the food, before we eat
After praying, we just hold our fork not touching the food, E dey my body to eat this food finish sha, but eh… E get as he be
Mirabel: What U waiting for?
Me: Nothing…
She just smiled and began eating…
Na eating tinz o…
I joined her eating slowly, the food too sweet that I didn’t know when I started eating the food in a rush.
She didn’t say anything, she’ll just look at me and smile.
After some minutes, she stopped eating, she sipped her wine then faced me directly.
What?! Now I’m very much uncomfortable… I start eating slowly but that one no fit make me leave the food sha, no way!
Me: U know,,,, this is delicious! U prepared it?
Mirabel: Yea
Me: It really tastes like the one your friends prepared for me the other day.
Mirabel: *Laughs*
Me: What’s funny?
Mirabel: Those ones that can’t even boil a simple water, I actually prepared the food that day
Me: Really?
Mirabel: Yea
Me: Wow! U’re really good
Mirabel: All thanks to my mummy and the cooks
Me: U have cooks at home?
Mirabel: No, uhmmm… I meant cooks, U know like food my mummy prepare.
Me: Ok, I understand. She must be great
Mirabel: U can say that again. Go on keep eating or are U’re Ok
Ok for where?
Me: No, not yet
I continued eating, getting more comfortable.
I retired after eating almost all the food in the tray before I got full. I took my wine and drank it all at once.
Me: Thanks for the food, I really enjoyed it
Mirabel: Thanks for eating, I really like how U enjoyed it
We both smile
Mirabel: Lemme wash this… (holding the tray)
Me: Noo,,, I will do it (grabbing her hand)
On grabbing her hands, we both stayed still then slowly raising up our heads to face each other. We stared at each for few seconds, our faces getting closer bit by bit… we opened our lips to kiss before.… someone from outside came knocking.
Intruder: Where that ba$tard?!
I heard someone from outside knocking on my door, I recognize the voice.
Titus: Where that ba$tard?!
They didn’t wait for me to tell to come in or not, they just barged in.
Titus: Guy put game for person jare, see your stu… (seeing Mirabel) babe even dey here no wonder, babe howfa… (opened my fridge and took two yoghurts out) Guy, yoghurt no dey finish for your fridge oh…
I was just looking at the ba$tard, he shared my yoghurts with the other ba$tard that accepted it without hesitation. A tear almost dropped from my eyes, these guys aint good at all. They didn’t respect me or the fact I’m with someone. Mirabel’s presence couldn’t make say or do anything, I just kept my coolness. All this while,,, Mirabel was looking surprised if not shocked, seeing what my so-called guys were doing.
They switched on my light then switched off the cool music that was playing just to play P.S (Video game). After fixing it, Titus turned to me…
Titus: Guy U go play?
I didn’t say nothing, I only shook my head with that gesture that means no.
Titus: Wait o…. Na Mirabel be this?
Mirabel: Hi
Titus: Hiii… how duin? (The idiot started using phonetics)
Mirabel: I’m fine… how do u do?
Titus: Am good Am good (offering her his filthy hands) I’m Titus, What can I call U pretty one?
Mirabel: Mirabel (offering her hands)
Titus: Woah… pretty name for ah gorgeous breath taking lady (kissed her hand)
Mirabel: (blushing) Thank U…
Me: **Coughs** Ok, enough of the introduction…
Titus: (Ignored me) So… what are u doing here? Lets go outside and talk more u know…
Na now i know say thunder never strike this guy before,,, this guy don craze finish. Na to kill ‘am oh…
Mirabel: Actually, I’m about leaving
Titus: Ok, lemme walk…
Me: **Interrupted the idiot** Lets go dear
She stood up, I took her hand and walked out with her with a Not-Cool face.
Mirabel: **Smiling ** wow, your friend is really romantic.
Me: Yea
Mirabel: Are U Ok?
Me: Yea, sure. Why?
Mirabel: U look disturbed
Me: Nah… I’m fine
Mirabel: Sure?
Me: Sure
Mirabel: Ok,,, U talk to me U know
Me: Yea
Mirabel: But, is that how U guys do?
Me: What?
Mirabel: U know, the your friends barged in with little or no regard whatsoever
Me: I still don’t get U?
Mirabel: Seriously? I thought you’d be mad for the interrup… U know what, never mind.
Me: I just need to get your point
Mirabel: My point? What point do U need? Are U that naive?
Me: Excuse me?
Mirabel: Forget everything Ok? I’m outta here. **Opening her car**
Me: Whats wrong with U?
She ignored me, I saw tears dripping from her eyes. She got in then zoomed off leaving me.
With rage and anger, I got in to my room.
Titus: Guy, U don hit o… why U no tell us na?
Me: Wich kind life una do so?
Frankkay: Na wetin I dey reason o…
Titus: Bone jare, no be our person…? Guy, U don bang her?

Me: (Interrupted ) Get out!! Before I change ‘am for una ah swear!
Frankkay: Guy make we dey move
Titus: For your mind now u dey date pres…
Me: Just go jare! Guy? wetin be your problem?!!
They left, I tried calling Mirabel 3 times but she didn’t pick up. Now Mirabel is mad at me, stupid guys!! Msteeew… Sh!t.
The past hours has been so boring for me ,,, worst thing no light, just thinking and thinking about how to go with all the sh!t that happened today. There is need to apply wisdom in this, Am I even wise? They say the best comes out from someone in a rough situation. Well, me I’m naturally stubborn, I find it difficult to admit that I’m wrong and need to apologize. As it is right now, I dunno how to meet Mirabel and start apologizing. Apologize for what? What did I even do??
I know she’s done a lot for me already but,,, I appreciate tinz and I f√ckin hate tinz. I thought I Love her but….. F√ck Love mehn!! Maybe ‘coz I dunno much about it. I like her though, she’s good and d--n hot,,, but I can’t beg na… No!
☆☆☆☆☆☆
I can’t go to Church today so,,, I just stayed at home. No friends, no one to talk to, no girlfriend, what a day!
I tried to play my video game but its boring… I can’t social network that moment ‘coz I felt like, I hate everyone. It would be of no use in calling Promzy ‘Coz she must be in the Church right now, she doesn’t miss that for no reason. And I’ve disowned my semi-friends, its only yoghurt I got right now.
I ate one indomie noodles and drank two yoghurt and slept off instantly.
I woke up feeling lazy, disturbed and unhappy. I felt like taking a walk but its sunny and the hot weather is not conducive for reading. That moment, I felt like disappearing from the surface of the earth and never came back. This new me is not helping at all… I thought it was the best thing to do but it doesn’t seem so, I’m going crazy…. Arrghh!!
Night finally came after waiting for like 4 years, I took a long walk to my favorite suya spot, I bought #500 suya and a medium sized hollandia yoghurt. That’s what I ate and drank whenever I’m down or having some money.
I don’t watch football but I did that night, I went to the nearby football house to watch thinking that, it might probably be lively due to the presence of people and their discussions but I didn’t even wait till it ends before I left there ‘Coz of the noise. On going home, I walked passed a brothel. One thing in me wanted me to go there but the other don’t want me to… after much mind-argument, the other mind overcame the situation and I continued walking home.
I walked pass a bar, there was music and dancing there, the place was full of life. It interested me, I didn’t wait for my mind to play tricks on me so… I went there.
The happenings there impressed me so much that I ordered for a beer, even though its been a while since I last drank it. The bar-man brought it and opened it up when I didn’t ask him to do so. I hesitated in drinking it ‘coz I was enjoying the dances I was seeing, it was tempting though but hey…Its fun, I’m having fun which matters most to me that moment. Moving my eyes around the place, there I sited a fair lady staring at me. She winked at me when my eyes met hers but she was seated in the middle of five guys in black actually. She kept staring and smiling at me which made the guys turned their face towards me. I didn’t do nothing, I started feeling uncomfortable and uneasy. I was thinking of what to do then I realized that I don’t have money on me. I forgot that I already spent the money on suya and yoghurt sh!t wich kin life na… I raised my head up to face the lady that’s been staring at me all this while in front of me.
Lady: Hi
Me: Hi
Lady: Having a good time huh?
Me: Yea,,, I guess
Lady: Wanna dance? Or maybe hang out?
Me: Errrmm…
Before I could make a decision, a fierce looking guy one of those she was seated with came uninvited…
Guy: Stand up and take a walk (referring to me)
Me: **Silent**
Guy: I’m talking to U f√cker!! (Kicking the chair I seated on)
Me: Why?
Guy: What?!

Guy2: E be like say this guy need arranging, Cap how U see ‘am?
Guy: (To Guy2) Wait first… (To Me) U are questioning me with question? Are U that dumb to realize what’s going on here?? Huh???
Me: I dunno what else is going here rather than some buzzing insects that needs to be insecticide
Guy: By that, I hope U’re not referring to me?
Me: Are U that naive that U can’t understand words?
Guy2: Cap!!

☆☆☆☆☆☆
Done for the day’s lecture as we had only one because other Lecturers are through with theirs. I tried to meet Mirabel in the class after the lecture but she stood up on seeing me and went outside. Promise didn’t come to school and I dunno why, I’d call her later.
I went outside, I saw Mirabel seating in one corner,,, one mind made me to make another move which I did but she stood up and left the School entirely. Mehn… this is another sh!t I can’t take. She ignored my calls and avoided me when she saw me. I respect girls but they should respect their self first.
I left school and got home, I called Promise to ask her what happened,,, fortunately, she’s well. She didn’t came to school ‘coz she knew there was nothing much to do and attendance doesn’t matter anymore.
**Knock on my door **
Me: Who is it?
(Silent)
Me: Who is it??
(Silent)
Me: Who’s there???
I got up to check who it was but there wasn’t any hole on the door for me to peep through…
Me: Who’s there?
Voice: Open up
It’s a lady’s voice, but I couldn’t remember whose…
I opened the door and met face to face with two familiar daughters of eve, Cynthia and Lola…. Mirabel’s friends.
I didn’t say nothing, I just stood in front of my door looking at them while they stood beside their car facing me.
Lola: Come with us (with a straight face)
Me: And why should I do that?
Cynthia: I will go if I were u
Me: Well,,, U are not me and U just can’t come to my place and tell me to go out with U just like that. How would I know if U guys don’t plan to trick me again or something.
Lola: Why do U think so?
Me: Because, U guys did it before and judging from how U guys knocked my door which looks like a prank made me think so.
Cynthia: U should follow us If U love and care for Mirabel…
Me: Why’s that? What happened to her?? Is she Ok??
Cynthia: Relax nothing has happened to her yet, but we fear that something might happen to her if nothing is done …lets go somewhere to talk
Me: I prefer U tell me here and now
They looked at each other for a few seconds then nodded at each other in agreement
Cynthia: Ok
They walked towards me, I opened the door wide for them to go in.
Me: Please tell me now, whats wrong with her?
Cynthia: Do U really care for her?
Me: Of course I do
Cynthia: Do U love her?
Me: Huh? Uhmmm…. please tell me what this is all about
Lola: She’s been down for the past few days now. She barely eat or go out with us
Cynthia: She tells us everything but doesn’t want to tell us what’s wrong with her now.
Lola: She looks heartbroken but she never told us that U guys started dating already, what do U think is wrong with her?
Me: Hhmmm…. this is serious
Lola: And apart from U, Cynthia and I,,, she don’t have any other friends
Cynthia: Are U guys dating already?.
Me: No,,, not at all, no. She’s been avoiding as well. I dunno why but she left here angry the other day. I tried to make it up to her and to know why She’s mad at me but she always leaves whenever she sees me coming to her
Cynthia: Are U sure that U didn’t know what U did?
Me: Well, none that I know of
Lola: Hope U didn’t tried to have s€x with her ‘coz she hates it
Cynthia: Lola!
Lola: What?
Me: I didn’t tried to do that… we just like almost kissed
Lola: Almost?
Me: Yea
Lola: Why almost? what stopped U guys.??
Me: Well Uhmmm… my friends interrupted, they came uninvited
Cynthia: And they didn’t excused U guys or what?
Me: Nop, they didn’t. Thats what they came here for to play (pointing at the video game)
Lola: Seriously?!
Cynthia: What kind of friends that are guys does that?
Me: I dunno…
Lola: What did U and Mirabel do about it? Tell us everything that happened
I told them everything that happened that day…
Cynthia: Oh
Me: What? Was it my fault?
Lola: She’s been doing everything to make U love her too, what’s keeping U? Why haven’t U talked to her?? U are making her look cheap dude! She’s the only daughter of the ‘p… uhmmm… U know, the daughter of a great family. Come on Victor…. geez! I hate nice guys!!
Me: Its not like I don’t want to talk to her, its just that…
Lola: Its like what Victor? Like what?? Out of all guys she opened up her heart for U,,, I mean, there are so many guys who has tried to woo her but she declined them all. When I said guys I mean, minister’s sons, sons of commissioners, senators sons etcetera… even many popular musicians in the country has tried but she declined without a second thought… come on! loosen up, U aint a p√ssy but U’re so tight!
Cynthia: Lola!!
Lola: This is so annoying Cynthia, he’s too nice. I bet he’s never hit it before, dunno how he got that hot and sexy body, aish!
I was shirtless, and She’s been staring at me stylishly all this while. I never hit before abi? Iffa jam u, u go know (In flavour’s voice)
Cynthia: Lola! U will never change
Lola: Free me jare…
Cynthia: Victor?
Me: Yea?
Cynthia: Can U go to the house and talk to her?
Me: I told U she doesn’t even want to see me talk less of talking
Lola: Well U have to keep trying
Me: What?
Cynthia: Yes Victor, U have to keep trying. I know Mirabel very well, she’ll want to listen… She truely loves U. We are doing this ‘coz she’s our friend, we love her and we don’t want to see her hurt, lonely and unhappy.
Me: Alright, I will try my best
Lola: Do your best
Me: Sure
Cynthia: Good, we should be going now
Me: Not so fast, I haven’t entertain U guys yet
Lola: Too late, U should’ve thought about that before now
Me: But its not my fault na, U guys got me worried about what U wanted to say about Mirabel,,, that’s why I forgot
Lola: Well, all the same,,, we didn’t come here for a visit
Cynthia: Yes Victor,.we didn’t come here for a visit
Me: Hhmmm…. What about some hollandia yoghurt in the fridge?
Cynthia: Maybe some other time Victor…
Me: Okayy…
I walked them out to their car…
Cynthia: Where’s your car?
Me: Huh? My car??
Lola: The ranger roger Mirabel gave U na
Me: Oh! I parked it in there (pointing at Mr. Abuh’s house) for security reasons
Lola: Hope U haven’t sold it?
Cynthia: Lola!!
Wait oh… wetin dey worry that girl sef, her own don dey too much for me to take oh…
Lola: Just saying… geez! (Walked into the car)
Cynthia: Don’t mind her, she’s like that
Me: Its Ok (E no ok at all)
Cynthia: Bye…
Me: Bye.
She hugs me then they zoomed off…
I don’t really understand what they meant by ‘Your car’ and ‘Mirabel gave U’ but, she rented it for me na.
I got inside, grabbed a yoghurt from the fridge then sat on my bed to reason things.
Wow! Sons of prominent men in the country? Those ashawo musicians?? All want to woo Mirabel???
**Sips**
And she’s like trying to woo me?
What am doing?? what am I waiting for???
**Sips**
The most important thing is that, she loves me, so … what else is keeping me? Today I talk to her, tell her how I feel and how I appreciate her…
**Finished the yoghurt**
I got myself ready, I refused to take the car so I took a bike and left for Mirabel’s.
I dropped in front of the gate, paid the bike guy…
Bike man: Oga U dey enjoy oh…
Me: How u mean?
Bike man: U dey nyansh those rich fine fine girls wey dey inside, U dey enjoy oh…
Me: (laughs) I no know for U oh…
Bike man: Haba! Find your guy something beta nau… we wey no get the opportunity to even touch the gate talkless of… kai mai gida! U get luck oh…
Me: Make U no go work, dey here dey talk talk… take jare
I gave him ×3 of his charge
Bike man: Ye wa… nagode,,, thank U bery much
Me: Ya yi, san nu… (its ok)
Bike man: Ka na jin hausa? (U understand hausa)
Me: Awo… ka je aiki dan Allah (Yes… go to work I beg U to God)
Bike man: Oga! Byee Byee, thank U bery much
Me: Eh hen… bye…
Bike man: Small small oh…
He said while zooming off, yeye guy.
I knocked on the giant gate, the security gateman came out…
Security: Who are U looking for?
Come see where gateman dey speak phonetic
Me: I’m looking for Mirabel
Security: U? Looking for Mirabel??
Me: Yes
Security: Why are U looking for her?
Me: (provoked) Are U her personal guard? Why the question??
Security: For Security reasons
Me: Do I look like a terrorist or a kidnapper?
Security: Its Ok… just doing my job. Lemme go and inform her
Me: Alright…
He closed the gate leaving me outside. The gate opened again after some minutes but the opener was who I don’t like to see. It was Frank, her male bodyguard.
Frank: She don’t want to see U, just leave…
Before I could open my mouth, he slammed the gate.
That guy is really annoying, I don’t like him at all…
Now what do I do?
I thought of something when I walked a few steps about to head home.
I called Cynthia…
Me: Hello Cynthia?
Cynthia: Hi Victor
Me: Are U at home?
Cynthia: Yes, why?
Me: I’m at the gate
Cynthia: Wow! Come in na
Me: I tried but Mirabel’s guard wouldn’t let me. He said she doesn’t want to see me.
Cynthia: Oh… give me a few minutes, I know what to do
Me: Really?
Cynthia: Yea, just wait there ok?
Me: Ok
I waited for like 15 minutes before she finally came out.
Cynthia: Alright Victor, just go straight to my house, Mirabel is there already. Lola and I will be outside so… take your time
Me: Thanks a lot Cynthia
Cynthia: No, I should be thanking U. Just go go go go go… no need to knock, just go in ok? (pushing me in)
I got in, went to Lola and Cynthia’s house… and slowly walked in without knocking. I saw Mirabel laid on the sofa.
She looked shocked as she slowly raise herself from the chair to seat…
I didn’t say nothing, I slowly walked towards her, squat in front of her, then held her two hands.
Me: Mirabel,,, I know I’ve been on a distance, I know that I’ve wronged U, I know U don’t deserve my negligence, I know been acting weird and mischievous, I know I’ve bee…
Mirabel: Victor…
Me: Shhhhh….
I don’t want her to say anything yet
Me: U see… Mirabel, I dunno if I acted blind or I was so naive to realize how much U care for me but to tell U the truth… I really appreciate everything U did for me, the love, the care, the kindness and the extra love that you’ve shown me…
I looked at her, I saw tears dripping down from her eyes yet she was some how smiling…
Mirabel: (Straight-face) U know what Victor, I’ve stopped liking U a long time ago
Me: (Shocked) What?
Mirabel: Yes!
Me: Mirabel please no don’t do that,,, I beg U, baby I love U. Please forgive my naivety and all the sadness I cost U… I can see clearly now, I’m very sure of myself that I’m in love for the first time of my life… please baby don’t do this to me not now not ever I beg U…
Mirabel: U don’t get it do U?
Me: Mirabel please, I’m so crazy about U now, I might go mad in fact my brain is shattering already. I’m going crazy Mirabel!!
Mirabel: Victor, I don’t like U anymore… U didn’t even asked me why
Me: Why? Please why??
Mirabel: (Laffs) Because I love U so much…
Me: Really?
Mirabel: Yea! I can’t believe you’re this sweet
Me: Well, U made me go crazy
Mirabel: Thats what U get for being so naive
Me: (calmed) I love U Mirabel
Mirabel: I love U more
We hugged each other for almost a minute or so before we slowly adjusted to kissing position. We shared our first kiss which lasted for 4secs, she turn down her eyes in a shy way while smiling. I smiled to myself as well, I used my hands to raise her head up, pulled her closer then we lip-locked for about 8 minutes before….
Lola: Yes! I catch una. Cynthia show!
We adjusted on hearing her voice but with smile on our faces…
(Cynthia walked in)
Cynthia: Whats up here?
Lola: Cynthia, U won’t believe it
Cynthia: What?
Lola: I caught them kissing
Cynthia: Really? Wow! This calls for celebration. I’m so happy for U guys (ran in side)
Lola: At last…
Mirabel: Lola!
Lola: C’mon girl! I caught U red-handed, this is happening girl… I know it will work he’s a nice guy but hey, obviously not for my liking but good for U
I was just there smiling feeling much comfortable like we’ve been together for the longest time. Cynthia came back with a champagne bottle and 4 glasses.
She poured some champagne in the glasses then everyone took theirs…
Lola: Lets toast for the new lovers
Cynthia: Cheers!
We hit up our glasses doing ‘cheers’ as we see in the movie ‘coz I’ve never done it before.
Mirabel: Thanks girls for been there for me, I really appreciate U guys and I love U both
Lola/Cynthia: We love U too
**Laughs**
Lola: Hey mister, U’ve been silent all this while aint U goin’ to say something?
Me: Oh yes uhmm… I really dunno how to express my gratitude, I dunno how to thank U guys for a job well done.
Lola: Just try, U’re doing it already
Me: **smiles** Thank U guys for everything, your help, courage, advice, mind activation, motivation, stimulation, the actualization…
Lola: Its Ok and you are so welcome
Cynthia: You’re welcome Victor, and thank U too…. now our friend is back to herself again, even better.
Lola went to a corner and brought something out. A video camera!
Lola: Well well well… lemme see how it all began
Cynthia: What’s that?
Lola: A camera
Mirabel: U set a camera for us?
Lola: I just want to know everything that happened here, U know I’m not good in listening to stories like this, and besides, U won’t even tell us.
Mirabel: Could have be more if U hadn’t interrupted
Lola: I don’t mind, this will do
Mirabel: So pathetic… (jokingly)
As for me, I dunno what to say or what to feel. Is it right or wrong? I dunno jare.
Me: U are really funny Lola
Lola: **Smiles**
I turned to Mirabel, held hands, then took her outside to the garden. Now, I want to like… be in charge.
We walked slowly in the garden in silence. Then I stopped, used both my hands to hold both hers too while facing each other
Me: Mirabel,,,, U are a new experience in my life, U are another chapter of my life, U are another person worth thinking about in my life, U are another moment that is worth remembering in life, U are my new found joy, source of happiness and U are my first love,,,, I love U Mirabel… Will U be my lover?
This day is a day to remember, a day I’ll never forget as its my first time of telling a girl ‘I Love U’ and as well the first time of asking a girl out in the proper way. Because back then, all what I do is to tell her that I like her and ask if she’d be my girlfriend. I guess I’m already becoming who I wanted to be or needed to be, whatever….
——————————-
Me: Mirabel,,,, U are a new experience in my life, U are another chapter of my life, U are another person worth thinking about in my life, U are another moment that is worth remembering in life, U are my new found joy, source of happiness and U are my first love,,,, I love U Mirabel… Will U be my lover?
Mirabel: Yes Victor! Yes!! I so love U
Me: I love U too Mirabel…. even more
She jumped into my arms while I grabbed her butt as we kissed like real lovers. We kept kissing, she didn’t pull out neither did I stopped. One thing is that I love kissing, and her kisses was wow! She’s a great kisser and I love the taste of her kisses. She finally pulled out after the long kiss.
Mirabel: Victor…?
Me: Yes dear
Mirabel: Thank U
Me: Thank U too,,, buh what are U thanking me for?
Mirabel: For asking me Out,,, and what did U thank me for?
Me: Well uhmmm… for accepting to be my lover
We kissed, kissed, kissed and kissed
She starts buttoning and removing my shirt button slowly,,, she will button it, remove it, button it again continuously…
Mirabel: Baby….
Me: Yes babe?
I really don’t like being called baby by a girl at all… I’d let her know if she calls me that again.
Mirabel: Hhmmmm….
Me: What is it dear?
Mirabel: Will U spend the night here with me? I really want to be under your arms, its kinda boring for me here
Me: I don’t think I can dear
Mirabel: But why? Please stay with me,,, I’m not testing U again I promise. I trust U with everything Victor, I want to be all yours… just stay with me love…
Me: Well,,, truth be told, I really fear that U might test me again. And another thing is that, I don’t sleep out from where I live
Mirabel: But this is different, I’m your girlfriend now, we can sleep over at each others place,,, there is nothing wrong with that.
Me: Yea that’s true, you’re right but the thing is that, I didn’t plan on sleeping over today. Maybe some other time…
Mirabel: Hhmmm…. woah… you’re a man of principles already. Mummy and Daddy did a great job in raising a husband material
Me: They did well truely (Its true o)
Mirabel: How about U by-pass this one for my sake
Me: Mirabel….
Mirabel: (seductively) I will prepare U fried rice and lots of chicken and as well yoghurts… I noticed U love yoghurts
Me: Really??
Mirabel: Yep
Me: Well, on a second thought… I will stay for your sake
Mirabel: (Teasingly) And for the sake of the proposed food and yoghurt?
Me: They’re just additional dear
Mirabel: I hear U…. lets go in
Me: Alright
Mirabel: (paused) or would U like to swim?
Me: I would love to buh its getting late already, and I think U should start the cooking already
Mirabel: Hhmmm… the food-lover
Me: U know its normal to satisfy the worms in the stomach
Mirabel: Really?
Me: Yea
Mirabel: Well, how about U feed them with beans and yam?
Me: Huh? No na they don’t like such, they need fried rice and chicken with yoghurt
Mirabel: **laughs** Alright, lets go in
Me: Go ahead, I’d just stay here to make some calls and look around
Mirabel: Alright…. love u (leaving)
Me: Love U too..
Great! now I got a splendid girlfriend, mehn… I really love her.
I called Dad, spoke with Mom, called my Uncle and my only school friend, Promise.
———————————–
Promise: U sound really happy whats up?
Me: Yea, ‘coz I’m happy… I have a girlfriend now
Promise: What?! I mean uhmmm… good good
Me: What’s wrong?
Promise: Nothing, I’m happy for U
Me: Are U sure?
Promise: If I am sure? of course I am,,, I mean why won’t I be
Me: Alright, thanks friend
Promise: So… who’s she?
Me: Someone U know, I’d let U meet her tomorrow
Promise: She attends our school?
Me: Yea, not only that she attends our school but also in our department
Promise: Oh, I see… what’s her name
Me: Don’t worry promzy, U shall meet her tomorrow
Promise: Ok, if U say so
Me: Yep, see U tomorrow
Promise: Ok bye
Me: Bye…
**I hung up**
Lola: Hhmmm…
I turned around to see Lola behind me wearing bikinis
Me: Lola hi, I didn’t hear U coming
Lola: Yea I know, just came for a swim
Me: Its good
Lola: So… I guess I really underestimated U
Me: I don’t get U
Lola: I never knew U were that energetic
Me: I dunno what you’re talking about
Lola: I saw how U grabbed Mirabel when U guys were kissing… and U got some sweet words that could melt the heart of any girl… I watch the scene from my tape
Me: I feel embarrass, U know its supposed to be our privacy,,, I mean, Mirabel and I
Lola: I know buh I couldn’t help it
Me: Thanks all the same
Lola: So,,, why don’t U join me in the pool?
Me: Huh?
Lola: Come on… It will be fun
She said grabbing me to the pool.
This girl is really something else, she didn’t even wait for my response before she starts pulling me to the pool.
Me: Hey! stop, I’m not prepared to swim please…
Lola: Do U have to be prepared?? Don’t U know how to swim?
Me: I can swim, buh…
Lola: C’mon it will be fun,,, don’t be a joy-kill
Me: Lola, seriously I’m not prepared for this… maybe some other time Ok?
Lola: Now is more better, the water is cool and suitable for relaxing the body, mind and the brain trust me…
This thing that Lola is bringing I don’t really understand. I have to avoid her in order to avoid stories that touches the heart.
Before I could alter any word, Mirabel just showed up…
Mirabel: Hey guys
Lola: Hi Mirabel
Me: Hey dear
Mirabel: I can see U guys are catching up,,, mind if I join the gist?
Me: Uhmm…
Lola: Don’t mind him Mirabel, he can’t even swim
Mirabel: Of course he can, right dear?
Me: Yes dear,,, I love swimming
Lola: Oh really?
Me: Sure
Lola: Why then U didn’t proved it earlier?
Me: I’m jus…
Mirabel: He turned me down earlier too. Baby,,, are U sure U can swim? We could teach U if U can’t
(Ok, she calls me baby again! I hate it!! I gat to tell her)
Me: I’m just not in mood for swimming, maybe some other time
Lola: Whatever…. fear fear (cat-walking away)
Mirabel: Iffa burst your teeth eh… na my love U call fear fear?
(So Mirabel speaks pidgin? But the pidge no sweet to hear….. U know that kind ajebo pidgin na)
Mirabel: Lets go in Love, the food is almost ready (using both her hands round mind waist and her head on my shoulders)
We got in to her house and something seems unusual…
Me: Where are your guards?
Mirabel: I gave them two days leave,,,, U seat here while I go check whats on fire (she kissed me then ran off to the kitchen)
Well, its a good thing that f√ckin’ frank of a guard isn’t around ‘coz I hate seeing him. I prefer seeing the female one Jummy, she’s kinda hot.
Talking about hot and sexiness, I think Lola is a perfect description. The girl has it all,,, to tell U guys the truth, vame responds to stimuli when she threw her body on me when she tried to grab me to the pool. Her huge pointed boobs almost almost…. chai!
I better stop thinking about that.
Me seated admiring the apartment, very beautiful… there I sighted our President’s portrait and that of our first lady. She must be a patriotic citizen to have those on her wall…. But, those were not their official portrait,,,, how did she get this? Wow… my babe get leg wella be that.
She’s taking too long already, I decided to join her in the kitchen. I managed to locate the kitchen after wandering about the house.
She was slicing cabbage when I got there, I slowly walked towards her, held her waist from behind then landed her soft kisses on her neck (How I’ve always liked such kind of moment, very romantic,,, I love movies)
Mirabel: (jokingly)Hey hey hey mister don’t eat me up, the food is almost ready
Me: (In Frank Artus voice) I can’t wait no longer baby…
Mirabel: So,,, what do U intend to do then? (turning around to face me)
Me: I feel like eating U up
Mirabel: Oh really? (Placing both her hands on my neck romantically, Chai!)
We drew our lips closer till they met which results to a passionate kissing… It was getting more intense as she was rubbing my back and head. I grabbed her from the back and raised her upwards so her legs round my waist still kissing then placed her on a table close by… she starts unbuttoning my shirt still kissing…
Mirabel: Opps! The food is burning!!
She got away from the hot romance to drop the food down.
Mirabel: Good thing I remembered, I didn’t even perceived the smell. Its all your fault (romantically)
Me: Well I was hungry how is it my fault? When I came to the kitchen to find out if the food is ready only to find something better
Mirabel: (Seductively) And what could that be?
Me: (caressing her hair) Some one so special that can make her boyfriend resist hunger, that can make a man’s worries to go away in a hurry, that can turn an angry man into a smiling fool, that can make a man to blush with out a cause. Her beauty supersedes all beauties, her presence could open a folder in every man’s heart. Even the most pretty girl in the world with the crown would get jealous of her ‘coz she got the crowd. Who is she? I’m the proud boyfriend of the amazing, astonishing, stunning lady.
Mirabel: If U don’t run to the dining this moment, I’m going to eat up your lips this minute (wildly).
Me: Huh?
Mirabel: Go! Before U set my head ablaze,,, its getting smoky already.
I mean… woah… are U a poet?
Me: No dear,,, its the manifestation of love
Mirabel: Gosh! U’re so romantic and I so much love U for that
Me: I love U more dear
We kissed again and kissed for about a minute before…
Mirabel: Lets go and eat before I lose control and the food would probably get cold U know
Me: True… lemme help U, where are the yoghurts?
Mirabel: Geez!
Me: What?
Mirabel: Nothing,,, its in the fridge
Me: Cool
I rushed to the fridge at once to get the yoghurt… wow, inside her fridge was so handsome full with many things… I grabbed one big hollandia yoghurt then went to dining. I changed my mind by going to the sitting room, sat on the floor leaning against a chair.
Mirabel: So this is where U want to eat?
Me: No,,, this is where I want us to eat.
She dropped down the fine breakable tray containing the food, plates, knife/fork and tumblers. I love drinking yoghurt on tumblers.
She opened up the food…
Me: This look really good…
Mirabel: Why won’t it loo…
The entrance door suddenly burst open letting in an intruder…
Sometimes, I dunno why some people don’t know when to show up and when to leave. As for me, I describe irritating moments as an act of stupidity. I disowned my semi-friends ‘coz of their stupidity, now this girl wants me to hate her. Who else if not Lola…
Lola: Hey guys,,, woah… something smells nice here (oh my gosh jumping/running towards us)
I’m so so hungry, this look good, Mirabel U remain the best. (Fetching the untouched food for herself)
I thought it was only me but Mirabel seems uncomfortable with her presence.
Lola: U guys aren’t eating, or maybe you’re not hungry,,, me I’m very hungry o… (rushing the food into her mouth)
Mirabel: Lola what’s the meaning of this?!
Lola: Is there a meaning for eating food? Shebi una no dey hungry na
Now the worst thing she did that got me furious,,, was when she grabbed my or our hollandia yoghurt, burst it open then popped it into her wide mouth. My face that moment was so obvious for Mirabel to notice.
Mirabel stood up, rushed inside, spent about 11 minutes before returning back dressed.
Mirabel: Victor lets go (grabbing her car keys)
Me: What? Where??
Mirabel: Just come with me (walking towards the exit door)
How can I leave this food that my mind has blessed? Its aroma alone has already consumed everything in my tummy making me to have konji for food. I decided to join her, and I hope she got something good or even better.
Lola: Where U guys going to?
I dunno who she was asking ‘coz Mirabel was out already, and I could strangle her to death that moment.
☆☆☆☆☆
I got out, I saw Mirabel leaning on her car, she threw the car keys on me saying…
Mirabel: U drive (she got into the passenger’s seat after doing that)
I don’t need any one or anything to tell me that I’m taking her out for dinner.
While driving, I stopped by a store to get a big seized hollandia yoghurt for our dinner. We got there after many minutes of driving and gisting. We walked hand in hand into the restaurant and took our seats.
Mirabel: How did U know about coming to the restaurant?
Me: I didn’t know, I just brought U out for dinner
Mirabel: Really…? Without asking me??
Me: Did U tell where we were going to when U told me to follow U?
**Laughs**.
Mirabel: Hhmmm… seems U got answers for every question
Me: **Smiled**
We ordered for,,,, Una know na, with our yoghurt, we ate until she stopped eating but that didn’t stop me too… I continued cancelling the delicious meal.
Mirabel: I apologize for my friend Victor, she’s just like that. I think I really need to talk to her seriously
Me: U don’t need to apologize to me, after all she’s also my friend, I understand such.
Mirabel: Are U sure you’re cool about it?
Me: Yea,,, sure
Mirabel: I saw the look on your face the other time, I was scared that U were going to punch her **laughing**
Me: **laughed** Don’t mind me jare, I just need to get use to her
Mirabel: Remember your friends also disturbed our moment the other day but U didn’t do anything about it or even apologized to me,,,, It really got me mad
Me: Oh… That day eh… first, they’re not really my friends. I call them my semi-friends ‘coz I dunno much about them, and ‘coz I needed friends then.
Mirabel: I see… how are they doing now?
Me: Well ermmm… to tell U the truth, I dunno
Mirabel: What do U mean by U dunno are they not your friends anymore?
Me: Yea
Mirabel: What happened?
Me: I ended our friendship that very day that our moment was disrupted by them. They got me really angry
Mirabel: U went that far? I thought U didn’t mind and that made me feel like U didn’t like me…
Me: I’m really sorry about that baby, its in the past dear… we’re a couple now and I won’t want anybody, the past, or anything whatsoever to come between us.
Mirabel: Thanks love
Me: And I meant every word I said
Mirabel: I know dear ‘coz I trust U,,, and I love U. But, there are some things U need to know
Me: Forget about it dear, let’s face the future and forget about the past. I know its about your exes but it doesn’t matter now
Mirabel: Its not about that, its about us
Me: What about us?
Mirabel: Don’t U think that, we need to know about each other more? like our families, where we came from, hobbies,,, U know stuffs like that… aren’t U even curious about knowing me??
Me: Of course I want to know U, I just wanted to take it slow,,, step by step
Mirabel: Okay… so who are U Victor?
Me: Well,,, I’m the Son of James Patrick Abuh from Edo state but my momma from Kogi. The only male out of three children actually, I was born and bread here in Abuja. My father is a Chartered accountant, while my momma manages her business store. That will do for now, U shall know more about me as time goes by. So,,,, what about U?
Mirabel: Well, using your format,,, I am the daughter of Donald Collins Abioye and Margaret both from Osun state the only fema….

Mirabel: Please dear we’re in the public don’t get angry with me I never wanted to keep it from U
Me: But U never told me, U never mentioned it to me!
Mirabel: Yes na ‘coz U never asked about me and it never came up. Please dear many people dunno about my identity, I brought this topic up to let U know about me ‘coz I love U and U deserve to know who I am
Me: Oh My God! Are U for real?!!
In this kind of situation, I dunno how to react. Because, this is quite a good news,,,, buh it could be a bad news as well.
Dating the President’s Daughter? Am I supposed to be mad at her?
Why?
Besides, she was right, I didn’t ask her about her family background and the topic didn’t came up until now.
Mirabel: C’mon love,,,, please understand the situation. We love each other thats all that matters Don’t get mad at me plea…

Me: Uhmmm…. dear please don’t get mad at me if I tell U
Mirabel: Ok I promise! Tell me already!!
Me: Alright,,,, I couldn’t stop imagine that maybe U were a runs girl, like maybe U do sugar daddies.
Mirabel: But why imagining such about me?
Me: Because, I’ve been wondering how U get your money and everything U got. U even have guards,,,, but those imaginations were a long time ago dear, its not of recent
Mirabel: **Laughs** Now U understand everything right?
Me: Absolutely and I’m very cool with it ‘coz…. I dunno buh I just love U

Me: Its nothing…. lets go in
Mirabel: Okay,,, U can tell me anything whenever U want U know that
Me: I will put that in mind love
Mirabel: Now lets go…
We got into her room,so pinky. She must be a big fan of pink ‘coz 80% of the things inside her room was pink.
Me: Pink girl huh
Mirabel: Yea,,,, its my fancy colour
Me: Cool… its undeniably beautify your room
Mirabel: Thanks honey. Would U take a shower?
Me: No, I’m good
Mirabel: Alright, lemme take a quick shower, won’t take long
She gave me a quick kiss then rushed to the shower room after changing her dress in front me. Of course I didn’t take my eyes off, she’s my girlfriend!.
I adjusted myself ‘coz I don’t normally sleep with my trousers and I’m not gonna start it today with someone who happens to be my girlfriend! Lol,,, I’m so proud of her jare. Woah,,, I’m now dating the President’s daughter whom I love,,, great! My change of behavior isn’t in vain afterall. I won the heart of a great girl, yeh yeh my name is also working for me. Y’all know what Victor means right? Lol.
My thoughts was cut abruptly when Mirabel showed up from the bathroom. Woah,,,, She’s more sexier than I thought. She’s got all the internal and external attributes I needed in a lady. She’s just perfect to my taste, I’m luckier than I thought as well.
Mirabel: Hey dear
Me: Hi babe
I watched her lotioned her body, so soft and tender. DamÎ ! I need to touch that as well **winkz**
Still on her towel, she stood up to her ward rope to get herself a dress.
I stood up and get closed to her behind, I kissed her neck, she paused putting on the dress and turned around.
I used my right hand to grab her waist closer, we kissed slowly but passionately for many minutes, I placed my hands on her a$$ and massaged it while kissing.
I raised my hands upwards on her body and rubbed her soft body for many minutes until she pulled back. She let the dress she was about to wear to fall off her body remaining her towel. Her face turned wild, she pushed me to the bed, then slowly stepped on me….
I woke up the following morning feeling happy, at peace and filled with joy. I love to love and love to be loved. The kind of happiness one derives from love is very special and sweet to the extreme. Seriously, when you are in love with someone,,,, your smiles will be different, your heart will turn soft and be beating “love” “love” “love”.
Whenever U see who U love,,, Chai!
U will know, the excitement and all that. I’m not a love doctor, I dunno if any of the above has happened to U before, so it may not be accurate buh as for me, I’m experiencing it now.
I got up from the bed looking around buh Mirabel wasn’t on the bed with me. I dunno what to guess, I tried calling her buh I got no response. I check the bathroom/toilet buh she wasn’t there. I didn’t get worried as they do in the movies, I brushed my teeth with the available toothbrush I found. I went to the living room calling her name in the normal way but got no response. I perceived something nice, I walked briskly to the kitchen and found her focused on preparing an aromatic meal for the morning. I tip-toed towards her and grab her from the back.
Me: I’ve been looking for U all over the world not knowing U were closer than I thought
Mirabel: **Smiles** U’ve started this morning. I woke up early to prepare what we’d eat before studying. Morning honey…
Me: Nice! Morning love. How was ur night?
Mirabel: Loving, yours?
Me: It was one of my best nights ever.
Mirabel: Hhmmm…. Sweet
Me: So what are U preparing?
Mirabel: Plantain with egg sauce
Me: Hhmmm…. can’t wait to have a taste of those
Mirabel: U better. It will be ready in 6 minutes
Me: Alright
Mirabel: I left my notes on the dining, U can go through it before I join U
Me: Good Idea,,, don’t take too long Ok…?
Mirabel: Promise
I left her in the kitchen for the dining. Our hand-writing were almost alike buh I think mine was better *Winkz*
She joined me about 13 minutes later. We ate the meal with orange juice, we studied, we had our baths together followed with a hot romance, then got ourselves prepared to hit the road leading to my house from there to school.
———————————
We sat down at the back of the class gisting as we were waiting for a Lecturer to come in. We talked about lot of things about our lives, family, hobbies, likes & dislikes and lots more.
Mirabel: Promise, come over here
I raised my head up to see Promise entering the class. She came over as Mirabel invited her.
Promise: Hi Mirabel
Mirabel: Hi Promise how U doing?
Promise: I’m well, how about U? (Looking surprised)
Mirabel: Great!
Me: S’up Promzy
Promise: Oga Vickie
Me: How today?
Promise: Not bad so far
Mirabel: Seat Promise,,, join us lets chat. U are the only friend of Victor I know of
Me: Yea,,, She’s my only friend here in school
Promise: Hhmmm… Ok oh…
She sat down to join the conversation. They were great talkatives. I knew Promise was very good in talking buh Mirabel eh… Very fast and fluent. They just kept me in the middle like I don’t even exist. I slowly and silently stood up to leave thinking I would hear… “Victor where are U going to”
buh I didn’t hear anything till I left the class.
I met the girl that gave me her number the other day, Beatrice.
Beatrice: Hi Victor
Me: Hi uhmmm….
Beatrice: Beatrice
Me: Yea Beatrice, how U doing?
Beatrice: Not bad. I have been expecting your call since that day buh U didn’t call
Me: I apologize for that Beatrice, I actually misplaced the number.
Beatrice: Would U have called me?
Me: I dunno,,,, I guess
Beatrice: Ok, U give me your number so I’d call U
Me: But U and I don’t talk much face to face… so uhmmm U know, is it necessary?
Beatrice: I have the chance and space for face to face conversation. I dunno about U
Me: I’m quite a busy person to be sincere. I don’t stay out much.
Beatrice: U can tell me where U live so I can visit U
Oooh…. what does this girl want from me??
Me: That won’t be necessary, we’d just see in school
Beatrice: Its Ok
Me: Yea, I have to go now…
Beatrice: Can we meet today again?
Me: **walking away** we’d see about that.
That’s how I left her oh… I don’t want any problem.
I went to seat in a corner, as Mirabel don snatch my friend and Promise got the attention of my girlfriend.
After wondering about one thing or the other, then I reminisced about last night.
*** LAST NIGHT ***
While lieing flat on the bed, she climbed on me with a smile on her face. We kissed as I followed her lead. I got turned on, I start caressing her body all over till I took charge and switched our position as I got to stay on top. The romance got hot, getting hotter and we were breathing like crazy. We could hear the sound of our own kisses and our breathing as well. I slowly pulled off the towel she was putting on remaining her thong underwear. I didn’t know she’d wear anything inside. We continued the romance until I tried to remove the thongs. I slowly and stylishly began pulling it down until she held my hand
Mirabel: Victor,,,,,, noo….
Me: What?
Mirabel: I’m tired already
Me: Buh we haven’t done anything yet
Mirabel: I’m not strong enough to romance intensely for almost an hour then have s*x later, no.
Me: So,,, nothing will follow?
Mirabel: I’m weak Victor,,, U should’ve thought about that long before now
I remembered when one of her friends said she’s afraid of s*x. I wouldn’t want her to be afraid of me, so I’d just let be. I’m not desperate anyway, buh my current activation needed to be deactivated.
My phone ringtone brought me back to reality.
*** NOW ***
Me: Hello
Mirabel: Where are U? I’ve been calling but U weren’t picking up
Me: Sorry dear, I was lost in thought. Is the Lecturer there?
Mirabel: No, I don’t think she’s coming
Me: Ok, Still in the class?
Mirabel: Yes, where are U?
Me: I will be with U shortly.
I went back into the class to meet them only to meet her.
Me: Where is Promise?
Mirabel: She went to do some photocopy, we’d meet her there to pick her up before heading home
Me: Alright, lets go
We met Promise in one of the business center. We waited for her till she finish then we left the school. We drove to my place after dropping Promise off.
———————————-
We got to my place, alighted from the car to my entrance door.
Mirabel: What about your car?
Me: Well uhmmm… I parked it at that building with fence (Pointing at Mr. Abuh’s house) To be secured
Mirabel: Why didn’t U come with it yesterday?
Me: I just didn’t feel like
Mirabel: Well its your business, do as it pleases U
Me: What’s that?
Mirabel: **smiles**
She dipped her hands into her bag and brought out some papers, handing it to me
Me: **Collecting** What’s this?
Mirabel: Read it
I read it, it was the car’s papers. And it contains my name as the owner of the car.
Me: I don’t understand this Mirabel, what does this imply?
Mirabel: Don’t be a dummy my love,,, the car is for U **laughing**
Me: What! Woah!!
Mirabel: Yeah…
Me: Uhmmm… buh I’m sorry Mirabel, I can’t accept this
Mirabel: What? Why??
Me: Its too big na,,, seriously I can’t accept it. I love the car though buh,,, not now. Besides its not save with me here. I can’t be parking it at that man’s place all the time… its just not right
Mirabel: More reason why U need to leave this place
