*Your kind gesture warms my heart, really* he said and I giggled.
*People have always said I am a good girl* I sent. We kept texting that I forgot that I am actually texting with airtime. I was disappointed when my text refused to send indicated that I no longer have airtime."Damn" I cursed under my breath. I checked the time and it still remains an hour to closure I then decided to round up and go home. *Hope you are still alive* I received a text from him and I smiled, though the text sounded absorbed it still made me smile and eager to reply too bad I have no airtime. I hurried on my way way so I will be able to recharge and continue our chat, if only he's on W******p or even F******k.*Seriously are you still alive?* well I don't blame him, with the pace I was replying it's normal for him to think that something is wrong since I haven't replied him. After getting home I quickly recharged my phone, I stopped using bank recharge when it made me use up my savings.*Now who is missing who* I quickly texted him, I smiled at the thought of him missing me.*I was just looking out for you, I thought you might be lonely and thinking of suicide, "You know the pain of loneliness is out of this world"* he quoted Naruto again and I giggled.*I wasn't lonely, my airtime just got exhausted**Oh, I never thought of that*Come to think of it is he not bothered about his airtime, well maybe he has no one to use it on, after all he does is play game.*I know you rather play game all through the day, how about you open up W******p at least it will be easier to chat with you and also save my airtime* I texted and then started preparing what to cook for dinner.*Why do I feel like you are wooing me* I laughed as I saw his text.*Woo you? A forty years old virgin that still lives with his parents* I already picture him as that, at least in that way I can freely chat with him.*Not to brag, I am way more handsome than any of your celebrity crush* *Well I don't have, so it doesn't count and the fact you are praising yourself means you are not handsome**Suit yourself and I am not opening any social platform, ha* is he trying to be annoying.*I will make you, wait and see* *You are welcome to try* did he just dared me, I will get back at him.*Wait for me, I want to fix something to eat, I will get back to you* I texted as I opened up the fridge and brought out a container that contains cooked meats, I want to prepare egusi soup.*Alright, I wonder how awful it will taste* he texted and I smiled but didn't reply.I wonder why I am so free with him, maybe it's because I have already told him my deepest secret, so to him am naked with nothing to hide.It took me more than 1 hour to prepare the soup and tidy up the kitchen, that is one good thing about living alone, I can effortlessly keep my house clean. When I was living with Jessica she made it hard since she always find away to rearrange what I have arranged.*I can't remember any food that takes up to 2 hours to prepare* I received a text from him as I dishing out the food, I smiled as I quickly placed the food down on the dinning table.*I am so lovable that you can't do without me for long* I texted, *Its just that I have nothing better to do* I narrowed my eyes at his text.*So I am your way to escape boredom* I asked, well it's still good if that is what will are to each other.*You should be happy Miss**Wow your ego can reach the sky* he clearly doesn't hides his feelings.*Well in your assumption I am a forty years old hag that jerks off, still living with his parents and play video game. So, wouldn't you consider yourself special that I have to ignore my game, my jerking off and whole lot of other things just to text you**It warms my heart that you think so highly of me* *Don't mention it**Sorry to burst your bubble my airtime will suffer if we keep texting each other* I texted then concentrated on my food, I am not a big eater but I love tasty food. I moan as swallowed the first morsel, I out did myself this time.*Well I have no way to help the matter**there are ways to recharge and get bonus, why not use such ways* doesn't he know such way exhaust faster, I ignored his text and kept eating.*Let me guess you are eating and ignoring me, how brutal* I smiled and still ignored.*Fine, I will talk to myself* with his text I pictured a very cute boy that is angry because his mother refused to buy him toy.*How cute* I replied since I am done eating.*Now you reply**Haven't your mom told you it's not polite to talk while eating**No, sue me* why do I feel like I have offended him.*Its just too tragic wasting my airtime when we can actually chat on W******p**I am not opening W******p**You are really stubborn and prideful* I texted as his stubbornness is already annoying me.*You came to that conclusion yourself* I imagined him huffed.*Well I can't continue wasting my airtime, so long mister* I texted hoping it will make him change his mind.*If you say so* and I felt the ultimate feeling of rejection. I am not special enough for him to open up W******p, I refuse to text him back. I have always try to do things to please others even if it means displeasing myself, not anymore, from here on out I won't lower myself to be trambled on. I put my phone down, though sad i refuse to text him back. I guess this is the end of the friendship, it ended before it even started, quiet sadA week passed and he didn't message back, maybe he is really into his game or he is truly a married man and decided to mind his business. I have only known him for a while but why am I sad, is it because he knows my deepest secret and never judged me and I feel like I can tell him anything or because I am just lonely.
I looked at my phone for the millionth times and none of his message appeared, I didn't delete his number since that will be useless as I have the number of heart.I on my data and decided to upload my pictures back, maybe he can be able to see it and get interested, yes every man is moved by what he sees. But what if he is a married man truly, won't I be committing a sin by tempting him. I placed my phone back down, I guess I should finish up with my work since the CEO is coming tomorrow and the new product will be moved to market tomorrow too.After getting home I decided to watch Naruto, Pain arc since that is my favourite season. Pain theme song has always been my favourite, its dark and gothic. I sat down with my fruit salad and started watching my favourite anime. I remember I was in SS 2 when I started watching it that is like 9 years ago, now I am 26 and I am still watching it. Jessy said that it is not girl like, that I should watch barbie or philippines love stories like other girls, I guess I am not like other girls." Awesome!" I screamed as Naruto got summoned to Konoha by the grandma frog, I have watched it a million times but I never enjoyed it any lesser. My heart progresses as the fight progresses, I still don't get why some people think that Sasuke is stronger than Naruto, apart from the time when they were kids Naruto have always been stronger.My phone beeped once as a sign of W******p message alert, I ignored it since I don't want to miss the pain fight but it kept beeping that I have to reply whoever than is being this annoying. I gasped as I saw the message alert is from Mysterio,"This is not happening" I stood up pacing around already nervous about what he sent, I looked at my screen which has 10 new messages from Mysterio. I clicked on it to view it all.*Hi**It seems that you win**I tried ignoring you but couldn't**Funny how people we barely know becomes a part of our happiness* that's because you barely leave your video game*Well the last few days of not chatting you have been sort of lonely* how is it possible when we have only chatted twice, well if it makes any sense its the same for me.*Maybe it's because I am still amazed seeing a female that loves Naruto* this one made me smile.*So, sorry for being selfish and refusing to open W******p**I hope you are seeing this because I have no idea how this works* What are you living in a bush? You don't even know how W******p works.*Hello, better reply or I am taking back everything I just said**Old Hag**Baka* he texted as I wanted to reply him, "Baka" is a Japenese word for idiot, I smiled at his frustration, I should be angry at him for calling me an Idiot but I am not, I am quite happy that I have found a kindred spirit.*I am happy that I won but Happier that you listened* I texted him then sat down since I have been standing.*Finally, you replied**Yes, just to put you out of your misery**I will ignore what you just said**So how have your lonely life being, you know the pain of loneliness is out of this world* he texted and he just doesn't know how right he sounds.*I survived**Attagirl**So just to be sure, are you a married man with kids or a 40 years old virgin that plays video game* I asked, I have to play it safe.*Are you falling for me already?* *Dont be egostical and answer the question**Well what if I am a married man, will you have an affair with me* *Never!**You sure? I have seen a lot of girls saying no but still ends up having an affair**Well I am not most girl**True, the fact you love Naruto is already a prove, well I am not married**So you are 40 years old virgin**Hell no, can't you just picture me as Prince Charming?* I laughed at his text, that wouldn't end well for me.*Nope, that would be a lie**Suit yourself, wow this W******p rocks, it is fast**I told you, I am a sage* I said feeling proud.*Now you can chat your friends and fellow gamer* I said.*Nope, you are enough, I am sort of a loner* He said and I can see why.*If you have the mind to leave your game chair, you will discover there is a whole new world and make lots of friends**Well I thought you will sympathize with me after hearing I am a loner*.Funny in real sense I am a loner too, I only have Jesse and my boyfriend who is now my ex, but I am a loner by choice.*Sorry, I don't have much friends so am also a loner but it's by choice since nobody understands me the way I want to be understood**You know Villians also think like that* He really knows how to make one gasp.*Well now that you are in W******p can I see your picture**You are so eager to see my picture* *Well I still don't know if I am chatting an alien**I should be the one eager to see your picture, you chatted me up in the middle of the night, you might be the alien trying to probe me**So you are not curious to see mine?**Nope, I will pass I don't want to have nightmare* did he just insulted me.*If you most know I am more beautiful than your crush* I fumed.*Hello, that can't be true because whenever I look at the mirror all I see is perfection*He really knows how to praise himself, we kept chatting and I forgot I was even watching Naruto, we chatted that I even forget that I will have a busy day tomorrow.*Its already 1 am* I said as I checked the time.*Yes, I guess it's time we sleep* *Yes, I have a busy day tomorrow, you still don't want to show me your face or tell me your name**Nope, and I am not interested in knowing yours Rose**That is cheating at least you know my first name**Ok call me...**Call you what**Will tell you that tomorrow* *Alright, bye and thanks for tonight**likewise* I dropped the phone and off the tv as I walked to my room to sleep, suddenly I am feeling so sleepy.I am happy he chatted up, truthfully I don't think I would've resisted the temptation of texting him tomorrow, and I am glad he is not married. I wonder why.* Call me mysterio* he texted, I grunted, why did I even hope he will actually tell me his name."Stop making a scene" nnedi warns me and I smiled sheepishly. I have been begging him to tell me his name since morning and everytime he refuses, I grunt or actually scratch my head with frustration I never knew the people around me are taking note of it.*Fine, I guess your name is so lame that you fancy the one I gave you* I texted hoping that it will frustrate him enough to actually tell me him name.*Keep telling yourself that, in reality, my name is so cool that you would like your first son to bear the name*I forgot that he is not someone you can trick into letting out a secret.*So, tell me what's happening today* he texted.Though he said he is not married he didn't deny the fact that he is a gamer, so u guess that he is bored and has only me to chat. I forgot he is a loner.*Nothing, we are getting prepared to have a brief meeting
I came back so exhausted, I am drained bot physically and emotionally. I have relived the little encounter a thousand times in just this few hours.After showering the only thing on my mind is to log in and chat with Mysterio. I sat down on the sofa and offed every bit of light, even the TV is off, I feel the darkness suits my mood right now.*Hi Mister* I sent after I have gone through his mesaages, it's mainly about how he needed me to entertain him. Funny his squibble manage to put a smile on my face.*Hello Missy**You kept your Prince charming waiting**Princesses are suppose to be the one waiting in a dark tower* he sent 3 messages instantly, someone is missing me, I sniffed a laugh.*Sorry* I reply as I feel unmotivated to chat, I guess am not healed like I thought.*Sorry?**That's not enough Princess* He started calling me that yesterday after I refused to call him Prince Charming. He thought calling me Princess would make me call him
Everybody in the office is running halter skelter, the new C.E.O is on his way, luckily I have met my sale quota for the month."I heard he is strict" Nnedi said as she files her documents in an orderly fashion."Where did you hear it from" Timi asked, she has never been the type that put interest in gossip."A friend from Owerri branch, he said that he even fired some of the workers" she replied shaking her head."I guess we all have to find out today".It scared me what I heard about him, I hope they're all exaggerated because I don't want anymore hassle in my life. I need this job for the sake of my family, jobs like this are not easy to find especially for a girl with no background like me. I was in a hurry this morning so I didn't talk or chat with him, right now I need him to calm my nerves. I brought out my phone from my bag to call him. We now have regular phone calls and am enjoying it. I can remember how much he laughed wh
"Hello Witchy""What have I done this time around" he always call me witchy when I do something bad."Nothing, I just think it's a nice name for you this afternoon also considering the meeting I just had""Meeting? So finally you have left your parents cottage" I teased him."Seems so, so how is your day going""Well we have finally done our presentation with the new C.E.O" I have been telling him about it and how scared I was."Am sure you made me proud" I smiled as he always have a way of making all my worries turn to pixie dust."So what was your meeting about""Nothing much, just meeting new people and signing bunch of papers" he is always vague about how his day went. I sense he is hiding his identity through that way."It won't kill you to actually be straight to me once" I said a little bit annoyed."Am straight missy, I will never turn gay" he amused changing the subject,"You're just hopeless, we
"Now that we are done with dinner, I have some questions for you" I said as am determined to get a little bit of something out of him."Wow, I guess tonight is going to be questions and answers" he joked"Sort off, you know practically everything about me even the ones my best friend doesn't, but I know nothing about you so am feeling cheated""I suppose, then I will tell you things about me my name excluded and anything that might give you an idea of who I am" I guess that is better than nothing, I will feel a bit closer to him after tonight."So Mister, this is an interview, tell me about yourself" he chuckles."Well, I am the simplest of guy, hardly provoked and tolerate lots of things really am so easy to please. Give me good food and good drink to go along with it. I lack any sense of direction, like I can still get lost even in a neighbourhood I have walked around like ten times" I started laughing at his last statement, that sort of ma
I can't believe how bored today is, I didn't speak to Mysterio I have been trying his number it hasn't been reachable making me think if he took it like I instructed him to. I did all he asked me, luckily I was able to occupy my day with interracting with the customers."What's wrong with you today?" Emeka our company driver asked me, I guess even him noticed my sad mood"Nothing, just feeling stressed" I said tiredly, I guess he took at as a sign and decided not to push the matter. Our days was spent in silence only talking about work related things. When I got back home the usual excitement that I always feel is gone, that's because I won't be talking to him tonight again. Today again is the same thing, no way of reaching him, I just did all he asked me and wore my black undies like he instructed. Funny how he has been the one instructing me on which undies to wear, I never had such connection with josh, it
His action irritated me so much that I slapped him, something I have never done before."Am sorry I just couldn't control myself" he pleaded but that is to deaf ears because I am already walling away, he called but I ignored him.Mysterio would b disappointed at me, I am disappointed at myself, I fly like washing my lips with iron sponge, it irritates me right now. I kept spitting even though he didn't go past my tongue.I got home so exhausted, I am hating how much his absense is affecting me he is not even my boyfriend. I went to the bathroom and took a quick shower, I concentrated unnecessary time on my lips, it nearly bled from too much scrubbing. I wore my singlet, the one he loves the most, I wonder how he imagines it since he hasn't seen it. I was about trying his number again when my phone rang, I was overjoyed when his name popped out."Hello, where have you been, do you think I am a fool? Someone you can leave and come back anytime you like" this is not
I just received the most shocking message of my life that my brain doesn't even know how to process it. My boss is Mysterio, how should I react, should I slap him for keeping the secret, well that will certainly get me fired. Should I hug him and tell him how happy I am to finally meet him, well employees just don't hug their boss. What should I do then, I just stood there looking at him and he looks back at me expecting a reaction from me."Say something""I have no idea what to say" I replied truthfully."How about you say that I am super handsome" he said and I rolled my eyes, thats typical him always full of self praise."How come, since when did you know?" I asked."Please sit, let me give you the full gist" I sat down to listen to his tale."After our quarrel last night, I had to bury myself in work so I had to go through the company workers that was when I noticed that your name is Rose and you told me you work at Juvango so I had to check
