We were all done with our exams, the Graduation ceremony for the Senior school three students was tomorrow. The parents of the granduants and even the graduants must have started preparing for tomorrow, it's going to be a long day.
I still chat with Senior Kene on What's app, but I've refused to see him after the kiss incident, even though he kept pleading. I just couldn't bring myself to seeing, I can't help but imagine if things will become as normal as before.
I'm finally going to give him the awaited answer today and it's either a yes or no.
I picked up my phone hurriedly from underneath my bed, I clicked on the green app as I proceeded to chat him up, I grinned widely when I discovered he was online and he already sent a message.
Kene: Hey....
Sewa we need to talk.I met my cousins at home, when I got back from kene's house last Sunday. I just had to get ready for the headache that comes with having to listen to jaw-breaking pronunciation's and gross bastardization of my dear mother tongue.Little lolu the Six year old rascal kept grabbing my phone. I still wonder how he managed to know my password, he was just to smart for his age. I could still picture his face when he saw me last week."Eeew who gave you an hickey?are you getting married soon? " he asked scrunching up his nose. Even though I still wonder how he got to know what an hickey means, well let's blame his dad.Yes it was kene's doing, he actually gave me an hickey that was so visible for everyone in the world to see, I had to wear turtle necked clothing through out the week so as not to be discovered and questioned. Like what will I tell people if they ask.Zeebahmy tall skinny
Just one thing has been on my mind, as I woke up this morning the same thing has also been on my mind the entire week. The thoughts were inevitable, has he keeps popping into my mind everytime and it's really hard not to think of him.I woke up feeling good, I had plans like real plans. I'm visiting kene today and it was not a surprise visit, he's fully aware.We both agreed it should be on a Saturday.I was meant to take Zeebah to Lagos State University today for her indigene verification screening. But I made Alonge go with her and thank God Lolu insisted on going with them. Mum just went out for an important meeting involving school founders.I decided to go out looking all natural and simple, Makeup wasn't really my thing. I styled my natural hair into my favourite style, the pineapple bun. It made me look too cute not pretty. I slipped into my purple and pink patterned jumpsuit, combining it with a lo
I still don't understand how the motorbike hit him and I couldn't understand how he was still standing on his feet. The only thing I could understand was, it should have been me.I should have been the one limping not him, Why did he have to push me away.With my eyes already clouded with tears, I hurried along following him back to where the car was parked. The crowd already dispersed like the way they appeared."Are you okay? Can I drive? " I asked, as we were already close to the car.It was like he was snubbing me, well it was my fault I made him bring me here, now someone got hurt."Kene..." I drawled out, trying to make him talk to me."Just get in " he replied, opening the car.***I was surprised when he parked right in front of my house. I stared at the familiar green gate, and I faced Kene immediately giving him a questioning loo
Everywhere was bubbling, the makeup artist was almost done with her job.Uchechi kept trying to make me laugh and I did immediately she commentedon the dimple at my backside, it was a little bit below my waist. The body con grown I was wearing did justice to my shape, like it fitted like glove."Slay Queen. Boss madam" Uchechi kept making me laugh.We both laughed at any opportunity we found to make fun of each other."You better leave me " I said trying not to laugh as I checked myself out in the mirror.The navy blue off shoulder gown I was wearing made me look too pretty, the shinning stones on it made the cloth look lovely, the nude heels I was to wear with it wasn't too high and not too low, it was just perfect and fit for the occasion. Uchechi wasn't looking bad herself, she was absolutely slaying with the black armless jumpsuit she was wearing.Today is the ha
The news was already everywhere, like a wild fire. Everyone knows now.I was born deaf, you might be wondering how?I have an ear impairment, I can't hear with my left ear. My right ear is the only functioning one. And there is a probability I might go deaf soon.Kene knows all this, I can't believe he shared my secrets with Ada. I hate him so much.Mum and Dad left this morning after I convinced and assured them I was fine.Dad wasn't bothered, maybe he didn't want to show it, but I guess it was my fault, I trusted kene too much. How I wish I could just turn back the hands of time.Mum tried to make me talk to Kene before she left, but I already made up my mind."I think you should hear what he has to say." she had said dropping off a strange book on my laps"***"Wow.... You are really strong, I never thought
Today being Saturday, we both agreed to make Akara balls (Bean cake) for breakfast. i could feel his eyes on me as we both picked the beans, I bet he was observing the billions of hickeys he splattered on my neck and shoulders. I had to resist the urge to look in the mirror, I wasn't ready to see those disgusting bruises.We were still picking the beans when he moved closer to steal another kiss. I immediately pushed him away, laughing out loud at the way he fell into the bowl of beans."That's not fair " he said pouting his lips and coming closer again.I covered my mouth, trying to stop the laughter. But I couldn't."What's not fair ? " I asked, raising my head up."As if you are the one with the swollen lips, it's like you are not hungry abi " I asked.****Even though, we spent almost an hour picking the beans. We were already done with t
Mum's death wasn't a dream after all, like I hoped, It hit me really had. I was devastated and I still felt numb. Her death stripped me off my emotions. I felt sick, terrible and alone.I still wish it was a naughty prank or a nightmare.She should have told me, Dad also kept it from me. I knew something was wrong. She keeping to herself and then the handing over ceremony. I was angry I didn't figure it out.She had Acute Lymphatic Lymphoma. Lymphoma. A form of Cancer that affects the lymph nodes that produces the white blood cells, which are the key elements against infection in the body's immune system.She refused treatment, if she had told me. I would have convinced her. And made her change her mind immediately. I would have stayed by her taking care of her every needs as she once did to me.But she kept suffering in silence till it reached stage four. The highest and last stage of
Few Months laterMum's death left me with a large hole in my heart but I was doing a good job of feeling up the space with sweet memories.My love for Kene waxed even stronger, with my feelings growing deeper. Alonge had relocated to Ogun state when he couldn't convince me to come home. He couldn't bear staying at home with just dad, it reminded him too much of all the times he spent with mum around.I was still angry with my dad. He didn't have the right to take away the last moments with my mum away from me but I missed him and at the same time wanted to go back home. But I just couldn't, even though I have the urge to.KeneHis name leaves a small smile on my lips and makes my heart dance in excitement, his voice alone makes butterflies swim in my tummy. He has been there for me all through, during my mood swings and what not. They say, all men have their needs and Kene was definitely
