Must Read: Jide!!! (18+) - Season 1 - Episode 56

***When we talk about freedom…. It’s far more than just being able to do anything… Being human, we can’t withstand to be locked down….. that’s an animalistic attitude… but all the same, prison was meant for humans who tried to behave like animals.

Why do we chain dogs? Because they’re unpredictable…. We lock the lion and the wild animals because we believe they cannot think. And so they better be restricted…. Prison is the worst thing to happen to man***

I got out….

Nolly was with a man, he was black, tall….. and averagely built….

As she saw me….

She ran up to me…. As I carried her….

Nolly: What happened?

My eye was getting red…. There was the look of guilt…. After you’re been warned and you still went to commit the act..

Me: I don’t really know… we were probably snitched… it was all in a second….

The man signaled to me, by winking his eye…..

I kept quiet immediately.

The policeman approached me with my belongings…. My phone and wallet….

I was released…..

Me: Baby, am I on bail?

Nolly: No…. you’re free….

There was car… so we drove to a nearby hotel….

It was dark already….

We got in the hotel…..

The next morning…..

We set off as early as possible, for our journey back to Pretoria…

Inside the car….

Nolly: Daddy wants to see you…..

Me: I could have guessed…. So are we going to him now?

Nolly: Aren’t you even scared?

Me: I am… but I’ve to see him isn’t ….

When we got to Pretoria later that afternoon….

The car headed straight to Nolly’s parents house….

As we got down…..

The guards were there again, to confirm the presence of the man himself….

My heart started beating very fast…..

And even faster as I approached the entrance….

I sat in the sitting room….with Nolly…

In 2 minutes… her dad was around….

I stood up and prostrated flat on the ground….

D: Stand up…. Common…

I stood up, and sat down.

D: I heard about everything…. And you don’t need to say a word….

D: You see…. If at all you didn’t know…. South Africa is a dangerous place…. For us native blacks….. talk less of you a Nigerian.

Me: Sir….*Nolly held my hand very tight……. Sending a message for me to shut up*

D: I said don’t talk…

D: Jide…. You see Nolly….. Although she’s not my only daughter….
And she isn’t even my favorite……*he smiled*

D: I’ve decided, to ensure maximum security for you…. I’ll provide escorts for you guys…. At least, that’ll do to an extent…

Till today….. I had no idea what Nolly told her dad…

Or, I didn’t get to know……………………………..

Nolly: Dad, I think we should get married first……. I’ve a problem with having a third party in our affairs now…. We’re still very young…. And we want to enjoy ourselves…..

I nodded my head in affirmation….

The conversation later turned into an argument about the political system in South Africa compared to Nigeria….
Pimped with I.T new technologies…

We were taken to our apartment….

*** There are girls….. There are ladies…. And there are women….. Don’t get me wrong…. They’re all in under the feminine gender… their differences are very simple…
Girls….. They’ve no idea of what they want….. so anything goes for them….
Ladies….. They’ve little idea….. But still willing to take guesses and irrelevant risks
Women….. They know exactly what they want….. And nothing… not even a Jupiter, stops a woman from achieving her aim in anything she sees herself doing…

That day…. I knew I was dating a woman…..

I knew Nolly wanted this thing to happen….. as much as possible…. She was relatively in charge…. All I noticed was she had started building a family…. A pattern…. Yes to this…. No to that…..***
On getting back….. I hugged her so tightly….

Me: I’m going to make it up to you….. I promise…

Nolly: Not to worry…. Everything will be okay…. Remember the saying… there’s always a light…. At the end of every tunnel…

Me: I’m so lucky to have you…..and I can’t wait to get married…..

We got inside….. As she went to the kitchen… I like to join her in the kitchen… most of the time…. Something I learnt from Shola…
