MY COLORLESS RAINBOW -Episode 8
MY COLORLESS RAINBOW
My Colorless Rainbow -Episode 8
©Amah’s Heart
With Jojo’s constant visit to the office I was beginning to feel uncomfortable. I don’t want any trouble from my boss or anyone because of Jojo.
My work place is not my house where she can come and go at any time. My boss may even sanction me concerning that because he has seen Jojo more than twice with me during lunch time and also closing time.
Jojo was not having time for her sugar who kept calling her but she will not pick his call all because of Mr Ohio. She will even switch off her phone whenever her sugar starts calling.
I felt bad for the guy, Jojo was playing him and it was not fair. He deserves better than what Jojo was doing to him.
“Jojo, don’t you think that you are hurting your man? He loves you, he asked you to marry him and you agreed…he went ahead to engage you and you collected the ring, only to remove it and kept it inside your hand bag because you saw a bigger fish. This is really bad and is sad too.
Jojo laughed out at my every word which she felt has no effect on her.
“Becca, leave me and my problem alone. My sugar will be alright. I told you if Ohio shows little interest in me, I will not let him go…I will hold onto him tight. My Sugar will have to leave with that. Ohio is a huge fish and I’m fighting every way out to make sure he falls for me. I saw him looking at you all over the other day while I was greeting him. See Becca, you cannot handle a man like that. You don’t have the experience for such men. It seem you are beginning to like him…but let me warn you to be careful because men like Ohio needs action and activity woman. he is not your type….he can even cheat on you because you are not his spec and you will end up getting more hurt than what Sugar….no, I mean Richie left of you. So tread with care and don’t be deceived by his fine eyes on you. He will only use you and dump you but as for me I know how to keep him to myself and keep him entertained all the days of his life. I have the skills, I have the smartness and I am so pretty and can make any man to fall. Trust me on that…I use and dump them at my pleasure, no man can use me and leave me broken. But as for Ohio I want him for life…I want to be all his and to spend the rest of my life with him…I wish he will just give me a good sign and make me the happiest woman alive…
I listened to Jojo’s desperate word and shakes my head sadly at her.
is all true that I am beginning to Like Ohio, I never even knew that it was that obvious.
But Ohio is probably getting married soon if he is not yet married to the beautiful lady I usually see them with sometimes. Ohio, looks at me in a way that sent warm all over my body and it makes me uncomfortable sometimes. Ohio still thinks I’m engaged or even married due to the first conversation we had which makes it hard for him to approach me again even though I wish he will do that over again.
I hope I’m not sounding desperate like Jojo.
I don’t want to appear desperate for any man ever again. The wound that Richard left in my heart has healed up but the scar is still there. I hurt deeply anytime I think of it but I have moved on and is a good thing that he found someone better off than me who will love and cherish him as he does.
Sometimes I wish I never met him at all but life goes on and I’m happy that I have moved past the heart breaks. I will not freely give my heart to any man that will play it like a football and score me like a goal.
Jojo’s attitude towards getting Mr Ohio was irritating me and I was looking for a perfect time to tell her to stop coming.
My boss summoned me, and asked me why my friend was always coming around doing working hour and I apologies to him and told him I will do something about it.
I finally told Jojo that my boss said she should reduce the way she comes to the office.
Jojo thought I made it up and became upset.
“Your boss did not say that Becca, you just do not want me to come again because Mr Ohio is beginning to like me. Why are you wicked like this? When suga… Richie breaks your heart I helped you to get over him but now is time to help me to be with the man I truly want and you want to close the door of opportunity to my face. And your boss cannot say that because he likes me. I saw him looking at me when I greeted him the other day and I can sense he likes me…
I gave a heavy sigh before saying.
“Jojo…my boss is a married man. Stop reading wrong meaning to things. He probably looks at you because you are not part of his staffs and he wondered what you are always coming around to do. People will think you are coming to see me as a close friend which you claimed to be …but they don’t know that you are only here to see Mr Ohio. Jojo, I don’t want to lose my job because of you just take the advice and stop coming off and on. Mr Ohio is probably married or getting married soon, even though I did not see any ring in his finger. Give it up or find another way to get to him but reduce your visit to my office. I beg of you…
Jojo did not take the news lightly as she walked out angrily.
Before leaving Jojo said if she can’t have Ohio that I won’t have him too. is either Mr Ohio belongs to her or no one else.
I was shocked at her obsession with him.
I wasn’t in any way competing with her on who to have Mr Ohio. She was just angry and acting unnecessary drama.
I know with time she will be fine, maybe if Mr Ohio shows her green light but as for now, the man is not interested in her at all and she knows that already and still did not want to give up.You can also read: ISADORA (The homeless girl)
I still wonder why she was beginning to mix up the names “Richie” with Sugar” i can’t help but noticed that anytime she is speaking so fast and want to mention Richie as she usually calls Richard she will end up calling him sugar.
And why is she still holding onto the pet name when we are no more together.
Jojo can be annoying sometimes but she is still my friend and I appreciate our friendship.
My Dad called me that afternoon to inform me that Melinda was home.
“Wow, really…that’s good!
That was my reply thinking that will be the only news but my Dad had something more to say.
“Yes Rebecca, is really a great news because your younger sister Melinda is engaged. Yes…she came home wearing an engagement ring, it was one of the biggest news I have waited so long for. I and your mother saw the ring and it is quite expensive and fit in perfectly well on her finger. She said she wanted to surprise us and that was why she did not break the exciting news to us over the phone. Melinda really surprised us with such news. She is still as beautiful, smart and outspoken as ever. I have not met her man yet. She said he will be flying down to see us by next weekend.
The news of Melinda’s engagement came unexpected. As much as I wanted to lift up joyfully for my sister, I also know what the news will mean to me, how some people will begin to see me.
My Dad will remind me of what he usually say, that Melinda will first me and get married because of my carelessness and I never had good luck with men.
Those words cut inch of my heart whenever I think of it. Melinda will even start showing off as the most favorite or lucky one.
She sometimes act that way just for me to feel bad.
I remember having a phone conversation with her in the past, when I thought Richard was going to ask me to marry him. We bashed at each other with words, I even asked her to go and settle down because she was no more a baby, same thing that my parents usually say to me.
I know those words must have hurt her but she did not react, and when the engagement with Richard did not hold, she was one of those that called to check up on me after my parents told her.
Melinda did not say anything negative during then but I know now that she is engaged before me, she will start displaying all kinds of character so that I will be pained.
But I will not let that happen, I will not even let my parents feel that I’m always unfortunate and left behind in all things. I use to attend my friend’s wedding, both my younger and older friends and I wish it will be my turn someday.
My Dad used to call me “flower girl” because I’m always catching bouquet in some of this wedding but there was never a proposal or any luck of settling down. Now my own younger sister is engaged again before me and will be getting married and starting her own family.
How do I even live with myself and watch it all happen.
I’m happy that I’m not staying with my parents, it would have being more traumatic for me to watch them everyday praise Melinda and treat me like I’m invisible or some bad luck to them.
“That is a great Dad. Is a good news and I’m happy for her…she deserv….
Before I could even complete my statement my Dad interrupted me.
“Yes, you should be happy for her Rebecca. Because she is taking the bold step to do exactly what you couldn’t do. I’m not condemning you but just to remind you of what I have always said. I told you if you are not careful Melinda will be getting married before you and that is coming to past. You are not even in a relationship yet. Ever since Richard broke up with you, no man is in your life again. my good wish for you is that someday you will truly find a man that will marry you but I hope it won’t be too late by then. You are left behind Rebecca and need to start praying so hard to catch up in life and become…
I was already irritated with my Dad singing his sermon again to my ears.
I couldn’t wait for him to finish up, I quickly interrupted him before he will speak any more hurting words.
“I’m also engaged Dad….
The word just left my mouth before I could even think of it, and it was heavy bomb to my own ear. I wonder how it will sound in my Dad’s ears.
“Did you say you are engaged Rebecca or is it from my ear? I didn’t hear you clearly…what did you say?
I had to finish what I just started. If this will end all the unwarranted embarrassment that I have suffered in their hands all this years then so be it. I have to try and sound convincing to my Dad or he will not think I’m lying and it will bring more trouble for me.
“I’m engaged Dad. I also wanted to come over and surprise you and Mom. I did not want to say it over the phone…I never knew that Melinda was coming come with same news. Well, she beat me to it but I’m also engaged…
My Dad screamed happily to my ears.
“whaaat….Rebecca you are truly engaged? Oh my God…this is a double good news. One of the best news of the century. Why…why didn’t you spill it out all this while? Your mother will be so happy to hear this. I’m really proud of you. So who is the man…where is he from? Hope is not Richard or is he? Tell me Rebecca…I’m so eager. Wow…this is a great news Rebecca, when are you coming over to the house?
My Dad was really excited. My fake engagement made him a happy man and I know it will be same thing with my Mom when she hears of it.
“I will be home soon, maybe by next month…I could have come earlier but we have a project at work that requires my full attention. And is not Richard Dad…with time you will get to meet him. I have to go now…say hi to my Mom and also to Melinda.
I was so eager to end the call and the conversation. I didn’t know how I pulled such stunt on him but it work out well. It kept him quiet from further provoking word.
I sat hard on my chair thinking to myself and what I was going to do.
Anybody that hears of this will think I am really crazy, how can I be engage to myself. I feel stupid for even saying that. The word has already gone out and I have to look for a solution to this problem I just got myself into.
Melinda called me the following day.
“Hello Becca, Dad said that you are engaged too…that is surprising though. How possible? Hope you did not give yourself an imaginary suitor because you heard that I was getting married soon? Don’t play such game because it will back fire on you if Dad and Mom finds out…
I was boiling angrily but I try to remain calm as I listen to Melinda. I laughed out my annoyance so loud so that her ears will hurt with my laughter.
Maybe I’m going crazy but I have to keep this up.
“Imaginary suitor? Please come off it….I’m better off than that. And I was never in anyway competing with you…I expected you to be happy for me like I was for you. I was not expecting you to start vomiting this trash. It seem you really want to get ahead of me in everything and also get married before me but is unfortunate that I will always remain your senior. I’m also hooked dear sister, so deal with it…and be happy for me. Stop acting like you are an enemy of my progress. I actually wanted to surprise Dad and Mom but it seem you are ahead of me in doing that but is okay. They will be getting two inlaws at same time… because I’m really engaged….
Melinda was quiet and later said.
“I’m happy for you anyway. Take a picture of your engagement ring and send to me let me see and I will also show to Mom and Dad…
My heart started racing.
I was thinking of what to do and another idea clicks in.
“I will do that later Melinda. If that will clear your doubts…then relax because I will send you a hundred pics of my engagement ring. Not right now because I’m very busy but you will get the pics.
I ended the call before she will say something else.
I covered my mouth in disbelief.
What was I even thinking by pulling such expensive stunt on them?
What I’m I supposed to do now. I have to act fast but how do I make an imaginary fiance to become real. How will I convince my people this time? -

What more pain than losing a mom, but I had to move on, the funeral was conducted, dad did gave a tributes of how heroic mom was all in sorrow.Now that the dead has been buried, everyone went to his normal life Cal my friend and Rita stood by me through it all.
There was one thing that did surprise me after mom’s death, her death seem to open door to a rise in the death rate in the city, people were been killed at night.
The whole city shook with fear, and the government installed an impromptu curfew.My school life was still trying to go back to normal, because the vacuum mom’s occupied in my life was now vacant, nobody to tell me to do my Homework, nobody to tell me if i was wrong with my decisions, no one can ever replace my mom though people do say the words I never knew what it meant, but now i see the meaning in the words. And to worsen issue dad was barely around I was only lucky to have friends like Cal, and my girlfriend Rita.
At school, Rita and Cal seem to be the major Source of my still intact sanity, if not I would have ran mad, thinking about mom.
Aside Rita been one of the hottest chick in school, she was a sweet girl, unlike most girls of her kind, she was always cool around me, she do come over to watch our team play Soccer at the field, I and Cal were members of the same team.
I loved to see her standing by the field, her presence alone, makes me feel so excited that I perform very well.
She will keep on blowing me kisses anytime I did a skill or score a goal, I loved her.
************
Cal
There was a homecoming match between our school team and Brooklyn High School, home coming was a yearly game between various schools in the cities, this year Empire High School, and Brooklyn High School were Fixed for a duel. The Match was Scheduled for 2:30pm that wednesday on a normal day the match would have hold by 4pm, but with the rising rate of killings in the city, the school authorities decided to let us play at noon.We did set out to the field, we did put in our best, chuks was giving me smooth passes, but the defenders from Brooklyn’s were so good that we couldn’t kick a ball pass them, each time our legs click there is always this sound it makes like were kicking against a hard wall.
:
As the match was coming to an end, we were 1 goal down at 86mins, there was no hope of us winning, the cheers from our school cheerleaders were waning, once Paul’s hold of the ball, he did pull a stunt that let the ball roll up high into the air, I saw this as a chance, I leapt high into the sky, and did a back flip, my legs caught the ball, and brought it down to the ground with full force, and the next minutes the whole place was agog. The fans celebrated us
We did equalize the goals, and soon the match came to an end after a penalty shoot out that we won.Now after the match I was all sweaty same as Paul, we both hauled ourselves inside the washroom, and did a little clean up, we entered Paul’s car, he was on the wheel, while I sat at the front seat, watching him maneuver his way.
The road was free, we never thought of the danger lurking, at 4:50pm we were half way through our journey home, when the car CRANKED UP.
Holyshit I said while Paul hit his hands on the steering wheel.
Why now?? he asked rhetorically as we came down from the car to check what was wrong with the car.The road was clear no vehicle was passing at that time, we tried to fix the car for the next 1hour, but it wasn’t coming up, so we did place a road sign that brought out from the boot of the car to notify other road users of the faulty car, once we were done, we left the left the car, and decided to continue our Journey on foot.
I could see the disappointment on Paul’s face, I made him wave it off.
I have a date with Lisa tomorrow! I said gingerly.Whoa you don’t mean it, do you?
Sure I do,
Whoa you’ve been fucking up all the while, now you up to it, he said grinning widely.Yea, but she’s fix the date.
What?? I thought you have grown out of your shy self, common man grow up. He said while I gave him a Jab.
Now are you gonna ask her out tomorrow?
Am not sure Paul.
You are an arsehole! He cursed why we laughed
The truth is that have got a crush on Lisa girl right from my freshman years at Empire High School, infact I did had crushes on most girls at high school, but never for once have I spoke to them, concerning my feelings, but I am always free, and friendly with them.Now towards the end of my second grade, she’s showed up she’s becoming friendlier and friendlier, there was a day where I was seated at the old block window, watching Paul and Rita chatter away from a distance the two seem perfect, just as the warming sun of harmattan, I smiled as I watched her pushed Paul and he fell to the ground, Paul dragged her along, and they both ended up falling on each other, and he brought his lips on her’s and they both kissed.
So cute right? I heard behind me.
I was startled and turned immediately, it was her standing radiantly with her hands akimbo, she seem so pretty as she twisted her lips.Yea sure, I concurred.
You know Cal, this could be us. She said further, and my head dropped.
You are shy,
Uhmm yea.. No… No… I stuttered,
Don’t worry, I will wait, I like you so much pretty boy, she said pecking me, and walking away, the peck had sent shivers and sparkles of stars down my spine, I did touch the place she had kissed with my hand, and watched sway her bum away.By now Paul and Rita had come back, paul winked at me, while i did engaged Rita in a conversation after Rita was gone, I had to tell Paul about Lisa, and he had been on my neck to ask her out, but the shy me wouldn’t let me do the needful.
Now she’s asked me out on a date with her tomorrow, Paul’s urging me to do it, we were still walking our way home, by now it was a bit dark, the sun’s shift from it’s place of radiance to the western coast of Vernica,
We kept on walking on the walk way, the road was lonely, vehicle has since stopped passing.OH!! the curfew I remember at once, I reminded Paul, and we both increase our steps.
We started running at some point, to avoid coming in contact with the psychopath serial killer that has invaded the town.

As we were running, I noticed a silhouette ahead of us, I look up to see a figure it was claded in all black, his movement seem to be slow. And his attentions fixed to the ground.
Stop!!! I called out to Paul who stopped running at once.
What is it Cal? He asked anxiously
Look up I said!What?? Holyshit he said clutching to me, we silently made to turn back to where we were coming from, but it seem the figure had already noticed us, it turned towards us in one swift motion, and we started running again while he started chasing after us.
We were on the lead, all thanks to the numerous training sessions we had from our football training. But the figure was closing in on us, I kept on looking back and running and this did hindered my running pace, Paul was a few step ahead, he wasn’t looking back like I was doing, soon enough, I tripped and fell to the ground over an object protruding out of the ground.My body hit the hard floor, and I was stalk to it lying motionless for a while, Paul had noticed this and he came to help me up, by now the figure was already close, I looked at his face, and saw it masked with a skeletal skull mask.
I managed to get up, and started limping, Paul aided me, but I was slowing him down with my weight.
Go go go, go get the police I will be fine, I said to him.
No Cal, we will make it out, try to limp faster he said.
I can’t I yelled go Paul, if I end up dying tonight you’d tell my parents what happened, I said giving him a reassuring look.
And he did run far away.I kept on running at a slow pace, just as fast as my leg could go, and just a step away, a hand pulled me down with a very strong force.
Let me go!!! Let me go!!!! I scream, but it pulled me up, and carried me back to where he was coming from.Just in the nick of time he did gave me a Hard punch that knocked me out.
********
Paul
After Cal fell down I had rush over to help him, but he had asked me to go, I needed no soothsayer to tell me that we were been chased by the serial killer that has strucked town, but why didn’t he shoot us, because according to the records on ground, the serial killer shoots all his victim at the head, so why not us, why did he decided to chase us?I kept on running, as different thoughts ran through my mind.
I was still deep in thought when something crossed my mind, and that minutes I looked back to see the psycho dragging Cal, and I Immediately pulled my loafers (shoe) and started retracing my steps back.I was fast in keeping my pace, but did carefully choose my step in order not to attract the killer’s attention, I got to a place, and an object that protruded out of the floor, stopped me, it must be the cause of Cal’s fall, I picked it up at once, it was a plank I was happy, this was my weapon, I continued my chase and soon I sighted a car at the fore, I knew the killer was taking Cal to the car, and I hasten up, just in the nick of time I got closer to the man and as he made to enter the car, I hit him so hard with the stick!!!, the force was great, he fell to the ground, dropping cal along, I did continuously hit him non-stop till he was knocked out of consciousness.
I noticed cal was groaning and I rushed over to him, he had regain consciousness as a result of the fall, I aided him and we hurried us as fast as our legs could carry us.
Mrs Henry
My boy had gone to school that morning, he had notify me on staying over for the homecoming games, and he promised to be home by 5pm,I had advised him on taking the car or let the chauffeur do his work, but he told me that Paul was coming along with his, and that morning Paul did came, and they drove to school, at 5 in the evening I had given him a call, after coming back from the office, but his cell was off, I did call Paul and his too was off, I tried to be calm at first, but now it’s past 7pm they ain’t back already, I was pensive, I had let my husband in on this, and at once he took the car key, and off he went.I tried to talk him out of going, as he might be defying the curfew rule, but he waved it off saying his kid can’t be out there and he sits at home,
Not quite long I heard the honking of Henry’s car, I was a bit relieved, but not in whole, because I wasn’t sure if they were the one, but soon there was a knock at the door, I did answer, and I saw him limping and aided by Paul my jaw dropped in shock.Mr Henry
I had took to the road, the moment my wife told me about the situation on ground, I did drove along for a while, when I sighted two figures walking abnormally on the road, so I did dim the head lamp of the car to see clearly in the night, I noticed Paul’s brown hair, and the blonde boy being aided was Cal, I stopped the car at once, I came down and assisted them in, cal couldn’t say a world, Paul had narrated everything that happened to me, Mr heart sank.
Humphrey’s threats were true, I was scared sunken.Cal
That night I was taken home in dad’s car, I listened quietly as Paul did explain to dad about the road escapade, when we got home mom was shocked beyond words, but she did nursed my little bruises, while dad explained to her exactly what Paul has told him. I noticed an air of uncertainty in dad’s tone, but wave it off
Mom was sad, but she had nursed me well.Heal quick pretty boy she said placing her palm on my dedicated head.
I heard Paul tuning the TV, he wasn’t going home tonight, he was staying over it’s late already, his dad was away on business.
By the morning the next day I was hale and hearty, I did set out for school, as I bath, mom had come around, she had advised I stay home to be fully fit, but I declined assuring her I was fit.Paul sat at the back seat with me, we chattered away, like nothing’s happened the previous day, Nicko the driver did join in our conversation, he was a good guy, I loved him so much. We all sang along the stereo as it blares familiar tunes.
At school, students including a few lecturer who had heard about the little drama at night, they filed up to tell how sorry they were, and after that we did settle for the activities of the day.
I still remembered my date with Lisa, after school, I had gone home, it date was fixed to be 3pm when I got home I did a shower, and put on some good clothes and drove off as Nicko took me to Vernican Palace, it was the place she picked.
Lisa
As I prepared for the date, I had put on some nice clothes to match the evening occasions.
I was putting a finishing touch to my facial decoration when dad came him.Going for a date?
Yes dad, I said as I turned to watch him put his hands inside his pants pocket.
Who is he? He asked
Cal Henry I said!Hmm Rich boy he replied.
You know him? I asked quizzically
Uhmm! You know Lisa, Do not hang out with rich boys at schools! He said firmly and my spirit dropped at once.What dad? Why?? I asked searching his eyes for an answer.
You should not he said and walked away,
But I fixed that date. I called after him.
Then Cancel it. -
story :The Nigerian Graduate – Episode 3
THE NIGERIAN GRADUATE
The Nigerian Graduate – Episode 3
It was Onome! Let me tell me a lil about Onome. Onome was a professional, dirty and shameless prostitute. She goes after everything under pants.. When I say pants, I mean PANTS. p@anties ranging from boxers to pants. She was bisexual that is she does both males and females. It was through Onome that I knew it was through that Edo women loves pricks.
She dated our landlord,our house agent,co-tenants and street guys. She cared less if you were married or single.She would date both husbands and wives and some even hired her for 2-3sums. She was a w—e! But one thing about her, I was a thorn in her flesh. She never believed I was what I said I was, she would stalk me just to know my true identity but trust me, I was smarter.
My makeups customers was hers, so was my “benddown select” customer.
Onome was discussing with Shina who was sitting on a stool and surrounded by my neighbours.
“I’ve met you somewhere” she was talking to Shina in a tone I’ve never seen her used on a guy.
“I? Where was that?”
“I don’t know, where are you staying”
“I’ve been in this town.”
“Oh… Maybe in Prosperous”
“I’ve never been there”” I’m new in this area”
“Oh really, where were you staying before. Maybe it was from there we met.”
“Been in the states but was in Lagos earlier” This drew the attention I needed, my neighbours marvelled upon hearing Shina was from the states. I felt highlighted and earned more respect… Atleast as a banker dating a Londoner. I withdrew Shina from the crowd and took him in.
“You’ve got a nice apartment” he commented searching through my room.
“Thanks”
“Your neighbours are fun to be with especially the fair lady”
“Be careful of her. She’s dangerous.”
“Someone here is jealous.” He rolled his eyes blushing.
“About who and how?”
“You better tell me the truth. You’re falling already…”
“What can I offer you…” That was my greatest mistake, why would I ask such question when I had nothing at home, not even sachet water. I blamed myself for trying to change the topic.
“Anything would do.”
“But… But… I’ve nothing at home right now. Just planning to get some tomorrow.”
“Is there any fast food close by?”
“Captain cook is at Fayose.”“Let’s go there.” Before I could say jack Robinson,he was up dragging me out.
“Do you want me to go out this way?” I asked immediately we got into the car.I was wearing a bumshot and croptop.
“I love my woman looking hot and sexy.”
“But this is Ado not Lag or wherever.”
“I care less.”He ignited and off we went. I was reminiscing on the ” my woman” thingy.
We got some food and Suya and ate, I wanted to ask if his car was the same I saw yesterday when his phone rang
“Hello”
“Get the f–k off, I ain’t coming home till u guys r in d right senses.”
“You don’t command me like some kids, I’m a grown up, man”
“I ain’t in no hotels, I’m with my woman” I was alarmed.
“Believe me, you ain’t seeing me till I return to the states.”
“Get the f–k of my phone” he said and hung up.
“Who was that?” I asked silently.
“My mum” he replied burning with fury.
“You mean you’re addressing your mum like that?”
“Riri, I was the one you saw in the afternoon” he caught me off guard. I never knew he was reading my mind.
“How? Why didn’t you talk to me then?”
“I was with that witch.”he was now on his feet angrier than ever.
” Your mum?”
“Aderin, marry me.” He stressed these word looking so pale. I didn’t believed my ears,we’d seen for the second time and Londoner was talking about marriage. It sounded like “Aderin, maga me” rather than marry me.
“What are you talking about?” I asked trying to conceal the confusion written all over my face.
“Riri, when I met you, I felt this kinda chemistry you feel while in love. You see, I’m 31 and unmarried, I’m in Nigeria to get a wife but my parents ain’t helping me.”
“How?”
“Marry me, we’re getting married before next month ends and going back to the states in two months.”
“Is that a command?”
“No, I’m being straight. I can’t stoop to the level of wooing a woman. We’re adults, matured adults”” I am going to take care of you. I wanna use you to get back to my parents”
“Your parents? How?
” Riri, I knew you saw the lady in my car! She was the hoe my parents want for me. How could they expect me to marry a lady all because we promised to love and marry each other while we were young…
Accepted I deflowered her and she aborted my baby but she is a w—e! She was going after all men in UNILAG while I was away and had several other abortions.” He was now shouting so Loud that I feared my neighbours were eavesdropping.“Yeah, I loved her but I love her no more. Riri, it’s you I want”” you’re so decent and promising.” His last comment was a lie. I knew I was not decent, I was a corporate prostitute in UNILAG too. I was still into “ashewo business till that moment even if it was codedly
I was confused, even though I had started developing feeling for Shina, I was never ready for some kind of poo.
“Shina, let us take things easy”
“This is me, and here is you, I’m 31 for Petes’ sake, do you expect me to start begging and wooing you like a kid?” He lied on the bed in anger and soaked under the duvet, I mean blanket.
I was up for a moment thinking if my life.
I was a blunt broke liar and my lying game took me nowhere. You have to lie to cover a lie. I’d leaving a fake like since my uni days and it never paid me. I’d lose a reasonable amount of good suitors because I could not afford to take them to my parent after bragging about being a rich kid. A good example was Victor, Victor was an IB boy, he was a rich coded yahoo guy and believed I was a banker, after gaining a substantial amount from his yahoo plus business, he decided to open an account with access bank where he believed I was working, I was able to cover up till when I couldn’t and he knew I was never working in Access bank… I tried to cover up and that was when he asked to meet my parents, that was where kasala busted and I could not get a tangible lie to tell, I opened up and told him about my real parents, he broke up with me immediately but his words hurt more, he said he was dating me because he thought I was from a rich home and. Could not stoop too low dating the daughter of a village illiterates. He went ahead and got married to a lady close to my house. I made up my mind right then never to open up who my real parents were to any man. After all, I could rent parents.“Do you have to think about it this much?” I heard Shina said as he pushed up into the sitting position. It sounded more like “do you have to think about being f—-d this much?”. He drew me so close that I was afraid he would swallow me.
” I love you, Riri”
“I want you to carry my babies” “not someone who had over three known abortions” Truth being told, I had six abortions before I met Shina, I knew instantly I was not the best for him.
“Shina, let us take things slow. I understand how you’re feeling but we shouldn’t rush” I said as I withdrew myself from him.
“Okay. I’ll give you from now till tomorrow”
“That is better” before I could blink, Shina had kissed me, and right on that spot, my body and soul was vibrating, I felt a chemistry which I’ve never felt for a guy in ages. He noticed my strange feelings and stopped.
“I’m sorry, Riri. I never meant to go far.” He begged with an embarrassment look.
“I understand..” I said laying in the bed.
“Goodnight, my woman” he said as he la!d down facing the opposite direction. I relaxed so well thinking about the kiss and Shina. I felt strange, I was scared of s-x for the first time in my life.
I was afraid Shina was going to wake me up in the middle of the night and forced me to s-x. He was not sleeping neither, he kept tossing around till I feltasleep around 2am . I dreamt about getting married to Shina in a big way, and guess what, my parents came in the middle of the reception. I fainted on seeing them and Shina was shooking me trying to wake me up
“My woman, wake up” I opened my eyes just to see myself in bed and Shina standing over me fully dressed. I was disappointed, I wanted to go back and sleep, I love my dream…

She led a solo life, apart from having two confra guys as lovers, she was definitely an introvert, she wasn’t boring either like most introverts, but she does not like to keep friends, if she had, maybe one of them would have suggested to her for her to hear from the horses mouth.
(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});I was surfing a site that evening, when kemi call came in, she wanted to know where I was, and I told her I was at the mansion, she told me she was missing me, and wanted us to hangout in her apartment tomorrow, I had offered for her to come over to the mansion, but she declined and I gave in promising to show up the next day. Our war with the Fox was now on a very lowkey, after the massive blow we dealt to the Fox, Just like every confra clash, there was no more Clashes, activities in school came back to normal, I knew the Fox were cooking something, so I never stayed off guard, I attended kemi’s father’s funeral, she had called me one evening to tell me that her father was killed by unknown gunmen, I was surprised, I tried my best in the consolation feat, and told her soothing words, during this period our love affair blossomed, I kept on loving her as the minutes passed by, just the same way she did me, every hour saw us on sweet phone session, I made her totally forgot about her father’s death, till the funeral day, she throwed herself to the ground in hot tear, she was a bit off, with me, she acted strange like she was mad at me, I only reasoned it as the toll her oldman’s death was taking on her. The next day after class, oh are you surprised? Well that was my first day in class after the war, the moment I showed up in class, every activity stop, just like the time freezes, everyone stopped what they were doing to watch me as I walk up to my seat, I could tell what was on their mind, it was that they were scared at my presence, and also scared that there might also be another attack that will make them start jumping out of the windows and any other available exit in the class, well I didn’t send anybody, they continued what they were doing before I came in not without making lewd comments, which I didn’t bother about, Then the Professor was not around, so I brought out my ear phone to listen to music, My favorite was playing It was.

When I got to the mansion I told potoki I was off to see someone, he said I should be safe, and I left.When I got to kemi’s apartment, I gave a timid knock on her door, she came to open it for me, she too was just coming back from Lectures, Immediately I stepped my feet into the room, she was all over me, I could tell the love has taken over her head, this girl was mine f–k who ever her other boyfriend is he, I thought to myself we discussed at length talking about different things inclyding her father’s burial, the war at school, she admonish me to stay safe, soon she placed her legs on my laps and started using her big toe to draw circles on my lap, the thing was having it’s effect on me the testosterone needed no one to tell them what to do, the caused a blood rush that made my d*ck rock hard, trying to force itself off my fly she looked at me sexily, she notice how rock hard I was, and she came up to me, straddles my waist, and we engaged in a kiss session she fondle my fair skin, and hump on my d*ck, while I fondle her boobs through her cloth, we did had fun, after some time, she laid s——-d on my waist like she was giving cowgirl, while I laid flat on the sofa. And she spoke up.
Kemi: You know baby, I love you so much, and I really don’t want anything to happen to you, why don’t we run away from this school to somewhere safe abroad, because I fear with the rate at which these cult groups The Fox, the Creeds, I fear that one day you might get killed, you know after my dad you are the only one have got. She said stating her fears.
Me: No babe not now running away now will seem like the display of cowardice to our enemies, I said
Kemi: Please don’t Die josh let’s run, away now that the air is clear.
Me: Fine bae, we live after the war ends, I must make sure I watch the end of the fox, they have done more hard to us, it’s our turn to finish them off once and for all.
Kemi: You sound so sure that you will survive this, she said moodily.
Me: Yes babe, the creed’s got the master plan, taking out the Fox won’t be a problem, we are just waiting for the right time to strike.
Kemi: Oh I see babe, but I insist we leave.
Me: Common bae I Just told you we have a plan, and once it works out it means the end of the Foxes, then I can follow you to anywhere you want to in the world.
Kemi: Mind Sharing, she asked with some enthusiasm which I noticed.
Me: no not at all baby, but you have to tell me why you said I was all you’ve got after your father, I thought you said you had another guy who was a student in another school. I asked inquisitively
Kemi: Yes bae I do, but the Fool broke up with me, weeks ago, for a very unclear reason, before my daddy’s death, so when the news of Daddy came to me too, I was so heart broken.
Me: Oh dear, it fine, you will be alright now you’ve got me, I said to her assuringly and she clung to me all smile
Kemi: Awwn sweet boy she said. We discussed some more, and I told her some of the plans the creeds were making towards bring down the Fox, They were supposed to be a secret, but I felt it was safe with her.
Hehehe Josh ya playing under the Edge of a knife.

THE GHOST GIRL
The Ghost Girl – Episode nineSTELLA POV
“So, do you really plan to help me?” I asked looking at him. He stood up from the couch looking at me.
“Yes. I will.” he replied heading towards his room. I stood up and followed him behind feeling happy. When he was about opening the door, he stopped and turned back.
“Where do you think you’re following me to?” he asked still standing by the entrance.
“Oops sorry. I lost my mind for a while. Are you going to bed already?” I asked. He sighed looking at me.
“So where do you expect me to go? To watch movie? Please I need to sleep early because of my work tomorrow” he replied trying to go in.
I held his cloth lightly looking at him.
“What’s it again?” he asked looking at me. I faced the floor not looking at him.
“What?” he asked again wondering what I want to say.
“Can I stay here with you?” I asked not raising my head. He was silent for some minutes before replying me. “OK fine. You can, but on one condition” he replied. On hearing that, I raised my head feeling happy ”really? Seriously? I can stay here?” I asked smiling happily. But when I thought of the condition he mentioned, I stopped smiling changing my expression. “What’s the condition?” I asked looking at him.
“You’ll know that tomorrow” he replied and went inside shutting the door behind him. I walked away slowly from his door moving to the living room. ”what could that be?” I asked feeling curious. I started walking around in the living room smiling happily.
:Four days later…
JOHN POV..
I dressed in a neat well ironed black suite matching with my shining black well polished shoe.
I picked my car key from the stool and walked out of my room. I got to the living room but couldn’t find the ghost girl. “I wondered where she left to this early morning” I said making my way out to the compound. I got to the compound and went to my car. When I drove out, I saw her talking to a little ghost boy.
:STELLA POV..
I gave the ghost boy some food from Mr handsome fridge before he could wake up.
“Thank you so much” he said smiling as he received it from me.
“Eat a lot OK? What’s your name?” I asked him as he started eating.
“I don’t know my name. I can’t remember” he said rushing the food into his mouth. “You don’t have a name?” I asked.
“Yes I don’t. I’ll like to remember my name at least but I couldn’t” he said.
“OK. What if I give you a name?” I asked smiling.
“Really? What’s it?” he asked smiling with his mouth full of some food particles.
“Hmm. Alex” I said smiling.
“Wow. I love it. So am Alex from now on?” he asked smiling happily.
“Yes, Alex” I replied patting his head lightly.
I heard a car horning behind us and I quickly looked back. It’s Mr handsome. Where is he going to by this time? I thought to myself staring at his car. I faced Alex smiling. “I have to go now OK? I’ll talk to you later.” I said patting his back.
“Ooh. Really?” he asked making a sad expression.
“Don’t worry. I promise to bring a lot of food for you when I get back OK?” I said smiling.
“OK. Bye” he said looking at me.
I left him and walked to Mr handsome car.
I disappeared and reappear into the car sitting beside him.
I looked at the way he dressed. His dressing looks extra ordinary. I wonder if he’s going to his work dressing like that. “Why are you dressed like this? Are you going for wedding?” I asked looking at him. “Wedding… You’re so dumb. Can’t you tell am going to work?” He said dressing his suite well.
“Oh work?” I repeated nodding my head. “So who do you want to propose to at your work place?” I asked again looking curious.
He covered his face with his right palm in frustration. “I don’t know ghosts are this senseless” he said almost in a whisper thinking I won’t hear him.
“What do you say?” I asked looking at him.
“Never mind,” He said. He removed his hand from his face and drove slowly down the street.
A few minutes later, we got into a big company.
I think we’ve been to this place before.
He drove the car to the garage and got down locking the car with a remote. I also got out and stood beside him. I looked up at the giant looking company. Oh, this is his father’s company. Did he agree to work here?
I turned to him looking confused.
“Do you finally agree to what your father said?” I asked him.
“Of course. Am also James Williams son. From now on, I’ll live as my true identity. I plan to find the reason behind my mother’s death and punish whosoever was behind it.
So, here I come ANEL entertainment” he said smiling. I looked at him smiling also.

Story: CASSANDRA Season 2Ep20
CASSANDRA
Cassandra Season 2Ep20
David’s side of the story;
As narrated by David
‘’seriously what is she doing here?’’ Nora asked, turning to face me with great anger, ignoring Cassandra who politely greeted her. I quickly drew close and held her by the waist to calm her down.
‘’actually she came in very late last night and I couldn’t ask her to leave out of fear of what happened the last time she showed up by that exact hour’’ I answered truthfully, praying for her to believe me.‘’she slept here?. She slept with you?’’ she asked without reservation, her face coloring up deeply. I quickly shook my head.
‘’no she slept in the other free room. You can check it out to confirm for yourself. I wasn’t even aware that she is already in my kitchen’’ I answered like a scared little child. She shrugged, walked back to the sitting and sat down.
I stared at her for some seconds, not knowing what to say or do. I have never found myself in situation before.‘’Nora dear, you got to believe me. There is nothing going on with Cassandra and I anymore’’ I tried to explain, sitting by her side.
‘’fine, then ask her to leave’’ she said seriously, throwing me aback with her demand.Yes it really was the right thing to do but the manner by which she gave the command made it look as if I was a little kid or someone being controlled by a woman.
‘’she wants to return to her school but then she’s scared of what Edwin could do to her. Can you just allow me to talk with her first?’’ I said desperately, clueless on how to follow the situation.

‘’just listen to yourself. Are you trying to justify her motive of being here?. If that’s the case then I think you still want to continue your relationship with her.’’ She said with a raised tone.
Cassandra walked in that moment, smiling innocently as she came closer to us.
‘’Nora I know we have never related well to each other but you just have to calm down please. I have no bad intentions for you or for David’’ She said softly, trying to work her way into Nora’s heart with the gentle words but unfortunately Nora wasn’t buying any of it. She simply ignored all Cassandra said to her, instead faced me with burning eyes.
‘’David you have just five minutes to send her out of here or I will leave this house and you will never see me or your child ever again’’ she suddenly threatened, standing up as if she was about leaving the house. I quickly got up and dragged Cassandra to the room (she slept the previous night).
(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});
‘’I’m sorry for doing this but you have to leave. It was your entire fault. I was ready to do anything for you in the past but you insulted and abandoned me. Nora picked me up and revived me. She now owns my life and I will have to do as she wants. This is hard for me but you have to leave. Go back to your house and remain there until Edwin is caught’’ I said seriously. She nodded softly as tears showed up in her eyes.
‘’I don’t know what else to say. I’m very much broken in spirit right now. I just feel so terrible but I will have to leave’’ she breathed. I nodded, drew back and returned to the sitting room where Nora was anxiously waiting.‘’she’s leaving’’ I said to her quietly, a bit angry over the insensitive behavior she put up towards Cassandra.
‘’that’s fine by me’’ she muttered, glanced at her watch and breathed heavily.
————————-
Cassandra showed up at the sitting room minutes later, ready to leave. She gave me one last look, breathed deeply and left without saying any word. I never knew where she was going nor did I ask.
The dark smile on Nora’s face as Cassandra left unceremoniously kind of made me wonder the true state of her feelings.There wasn’t any doubt Nora was in love with me. There was any denying she was only trying to protect me but then I felt she went way over the line with the way she reacted towards Cassandra.
‘’I hope this is the end of Cassandra?’’ she asked, leaving me to ask myself the very same question.
‘’is it really the end of Cassandra’s influence in my life??’’
hmmmmmmmTo be continued
