Story: The President

EPISODE 6

That wasn’t my plan at all, boriness not good at all. I took my bath after i saw Esther off then la!d on my bed and reminisced how it went.

While sU-Cking 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 sex.


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

Titus: No vex bro, my phone dey silent, i dey with my bae that time dey **** u understand how e be na

Me: Oya na, no p

Titus: Correct guy, leta na.

Me: Ok

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

Mum: You can say that again, i thank God

Woman: Are u done with secondary? (addressing me)

Me: *chai! our people like school eh* Yes ma. I’m now in the university

Woman: Wow! thats quick

Me: I thank God

Woman: What are u studying?

Me: Business Administration ma

Woman: Oh i see… are u sure u can do business with that your calm, gentle and shy attitude? or have u changed?

Me: (Chai! me that b@nged your daughter Dorothy) I’m still trying on overcoming it ma

Woman: Good. *looking into her bag* let me urmm… u know, take this…

Me: (Woah! again?!) Ma, u don’t have to bother ma (pretending jare)

Woman: Hey, u’re shy i know but u don’t have any other option. Now take it

Me: (In my mind: opening my hands when u have no choice. The way jerry does in the cartoon ‘Tom & Jerry’) Thank u ma. (Accepting the neat, flat #1000 notes like 7 of them).

Woman: Don’t mention, just study hard ok?

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.
