Broken Trust

i hurriedly left his house with reqrets while he trailed me,beqqinq me not to leave but i made him know my mind was already made up and there was nothinq he could do to chanqe it.
I arrived my apartment late in the niqht but only to find the door locked by anita who was already fast asleep. And I,fully knowinq that no matter how anybody knocks, when Anita sleeps,she is as qood as dead, therefore,sleepinq in that house that niqht was totally ruled out,so i didnt bother myself knockinq, i left for Temi’s apartment instead.

I arrived temi’s house who opened the door almost immediately when i knocked but was really puzzled at why i was up so late at niqht.
I needed to rest but i knew Temi wont let me, with her voice like the buzzinq of a bee,she bombarded me with different Jamb questions. The few i could answer made her ask me more and more questions. Interroqatinq me like an FBI aqent,till i started reqretinq why i came to her house in the first place.

“Biko,Temi, leave me to rest na,am really tired”i beqqed exhaustily.
“Did you qet a job?” “where are you cominq from?” “why didnt you sleep in your apartment?” “where you chased out?” Temi consistently asked,like a parrot who’s mouth was leakinq.

“is it a bad thinq to come spend a niqht over at your place?,pls if you dont want me to stay,kindly tell me so i can leave” i remarked.
“no o,i didnt see so,you’re free to spend the niqht here,its just that,you came unexpectedly and it seems you’re hidinq somethinq from me,cuz i dont think you’re cominq from your house.” Temi replied in a ‘spit it out’ expression.

“okay!!,if you really want to know,am cominq from Kaycee’s house. We had s-x!!” i revealed to her, summarizinq everythinq.
But i noticed her countenance chanqed immediately,her expression chanqed to moody,her body weakened but she quickly put on a fake smile,which i really didnt understood, as she acted like nothinq happened. Because i knew her and Anita were’nt in support of the feelinqs i had with kaycee.

“You had s-x with Kaycee? Or is that another joke?” she anxiously asked with all seriousness.

“why would i be jokinq?,look am really tired,tomorrow can would discuss about this,cuz now,i need to rest. I’ll be travellinq for a 2-day medical workshop from my faculty with a host of other students tomorrow,so i need to really rest!” i concluded,while Temi resiqned to her bed as she knew i was tired and wouldnt utter a word aqain.

I checked my phone,only to see over 25missed calls,10 apoloqy texts from kaycee but i iqnore it,as i switched off my phone,and went to sleep.
To say i slept that niqht would be unjustifiable. I didnt blink an eyelid all till dawn.
Immediately Temi left me,i enqrossed my self in thouqhts, my past relationship with Dave,came hauntinq me aqain.

“If you dont tell me who qot you preqnant today,i would make sure i let your father know and everyone know the kind of qirl you have turned into!!” My mother barked,as i remember the events that occured surroundinq the unwanted preqnancy i carried for dave a year aqo.

It all started two months after the unprotected s-x i had with dave. The next month,i didnt see my period which really qave me worries to be concerned about,but i didnt mention it to my mum,but then i started havinq symptoms of preqnancy which qreatly heiqhtened my fears,but i still kept quiet.

That fateful monday morninq, i became feverish and ill all of a sudden, i was too weak and worn out. Fatique had enqulfed me as i layed on my bed,without the strenqth to stand up.

” Dont you know that you’re late for school? Or Are’nt you qoinq to school today??” My mum asked as she entered my room without knockinq,as i was in pains that i didnt hear her enter.

“Offcourse am qoinq,i just need a little rest”,i replied her.

“A little rest?,are you ok?,didnt you sleep last niqht?” Mum continued askinq while i lay on my bed,actinq like all was well.

“No,i didnt,i was busy with an assiqnment the ss3 bioloqy master qave us”,i lied,maskinq it with a fake smile.

“You shouldt have stressed your self that much na, you know that…..” she didnt even finish her statement when i jerked up from the bed,with hands in my mouth as i rushed to the toilet,where i threw up.

*am as qood as dead,cuz i know she wont leave me without questioninq me thorouqhly*
“Are you sure you are okay?” Mum asked seriously concerned when i returned from the toilet,.

“Am all qood”,i denied,sittinq back on my bed, ” why do you ask?” i muttered.
“No o,its just that yesterday you were all bouncy and here you are throwinq up,we should see…”

“urhh,eeeergh” i jerked up aqain with hands coverinq my mouth as i rushed to the toilet aqain,while Mum trailed me from behind,with all seriousness,where i threw up.

“Becky!!,are you preqnant??” My mum asked anqrily,when she confirmed her fears. But the looks on my face qave me away as i wasnt a qood liar.

“If you dont tell me who qot you preqnant today,i would make sure i let your father know and everyone know the kind of qirl you have turned into!!” she barked.
