Jezebel - Season 1 - Episode 10

” I’m short of words now ” I said giving up on making her see the reason why she needed to change the name.
” but it’s funny that you’re here studying in Nigeria you know ” I said staring at her with a kinda smile I didn’t know I had.
” peeps here always want to travel out of the country to study but here you are even with the privilege you have, studying in Nigeria when you could easily be studying in the State ” I added still smiling.
” well, you’re right ” she replied.
” but I love my momma to be in the State studying ” she added confusing my little brain.

” what has loving your mom has to do with you studying in the State ” I asked her.
” it’s a long story, one I’m not willing to tell today ” she said yawning.
” are you not hungry ” she asked me.
I kinda like her nature, she’s the type that relate well with people, even tho we officially knew each other in less than three hours, she made it seem like we’ve gotten acquainted with each other a long time ago.

Her question was like magic because I started feeling the hunger pain at once.
I wasn’t feeling it when we’re chit chatting but her question located the hunger and enhanced it.
” yeah, I’m hungry ” I replied her.
” I knew it,courtesy of the drug you took, that’s why I tried to fix you something while you’re sleeping ” she said smiling.
” wow, that’s nice of you ” I said to her massaging through her hair. I swiftly brought my hand down when I remembered that we just met and she ain’t Precious.
” let me serve you ” she said standing up.

The door suddenly open shocking me.
It was an awkward moment as Samuel, Lekan, Usman and Precious all stood tranfix to the spot they were, staring at Jezebel and me simultaneously.

What made the situation more awkward was that I had only my jean trouser on, no upper wear, just my flat bear chest which had procured some bruises.

A pin drop silent envelop the sitting room as we all stared at ourselves.
In order to control the situation, I stood up to do the introduction.

” Jezebel, meet my friends, Usman, Lekan, Samuel and precious ” I said pointing at each courier of the name I mentioned.
” hi ” she said waving her hand.
” and this is Jezebel ” I said to the four of them holding Jezebel hand.
” what happened to you ” Precious suddenly scream, running to meet me when she noticed the bruise and plastet on my face and body.

She was checking through my body, touching all the places I had procured wounds on it.
” did you get into fight ” she asked still checking out my body.
” it’s nothing serious, we’ll talk about it tomorrow ” I said wrapping my hand around her shoulder as I took her outside, leaving my friends and Jezebel inside.
She sholved my hand off her shoulder when we got outside.
” what happened to you, I’m worried here ” she asked me staring into my eye.
” just had a small accident but I’m okay, we’re gonna talk about it tomorrow ” I replied her expecting her to go.
” and who’s that girl with you ” she asked giving me a wierd look.
” she brought me home and took care of me ” I replied her.
” what even concerns you about who she is ” I added slightly pushing her head backward.

” because I own you and if she try anything funny, she won’t even find it funny ” she replied with a mean look like she’s serious about it but I knew she’s only joking, we joke alot about stuffs like that.
” na you sabi ” I said leaving her.

As I got back into the sitting room, I saw my friends, sitted gently, all pressing their phones.
Samuel was the first to stand as he saw me enter, he grabbed me by my hand and pulled me into the bedroom while Usman and Lekan followed us.
” wetin happen to you first, soldier beat you ni ” Samuel asked me as he made me sat on one of the bed inside, and the three of them sat on another one, opposite the one I was sitting on.
” it’s a long story, I’ll tell you later ” I replied him.
” who be that slay queen wey con dey with you ” Usman asked.
” she’s one of the cast inside the long story ” i replied him.
” you f--k her ” Lekan asked stupidly.
” you’re mad ” I said angrily getting up.
I returned to the sitting room and find Jezebel sitted on the three sitter, operating her phone.

She stopped operating her phone as she saw me coming towards her and let out a cute smile that melted the anger in my heart at once.
” funny friends you gat and your girlfriend is also beautiful, and caring also ” she said as I sat beside her on the three sitter.
” yes they are and Precious isn’t my girlfriend, she’s just a friend and coursemate ” I replied.
” really ” she asked like she’s surprised or think I was lying.
” yeah, we’re really close that many think that we’re dating but we’re just friends and nothing else ” I explicated gently to her.
