Must Read: THE THORN ON MY FLESH - Season 1 - Episode 13

“Hello!” Remilekun waves and smiles at Debby.

She flashes a wave back with a forced smile.
I suppose Remilekun never observes that cold response because she diverts her eyes to the surrounding of my sitting room. And I can see a big smile on her face as she does.

“This place aint bad, after all.” Remilekun says, arching her left hand with pride. On her face I perceive a look that suggests, “It’s manageable; just for the mean time.”

Now my eyes begin to survey Remilekun’s dressing the same way her eyes had surveyed my sitting-room. I think she has a great sense of fashion. She is cladded in a skirt and armless blouse that are made up of ankara and a glamorous European stuff. The purple dress matches her handbag and her high-heels. She is blessed with a robust butt and perfect hips.

“Show me around!” She says.

She walks abreast of me while crossing her arm into mine as if somebody is about to snatch me away from her.

“Is that your sibling you told me about?” She asks me as I show her the kitchen.


“No. she is not around,” I say with a look of assurance, “That girl is her best friend. She only came to shelter herself here till the rain stops.”

“I see,” she says, nodding her head.

I can tell from her facial expression that she noticed the girl’s bad manner.

“What did you see?” I ask blankly.

“Never mind.” She wears a naughty smile, moving around to survey the kitchenware.

“You know I am still managing this flat until probably two months’ time.”

“Yes. I understand,” she takes a sigh, “anyway, can I take a shower?”

The question sounds to me like a rhetorical question. Who am I to say NO to such a honorable request?

“Yes, why not?” I say with a welcoming smile.

She must be a carefree lady. Otherwise how can a woman request to bathe in a man’s house on the first visit! I wonder if I should ask her if she hadn’t bathed in her house in the morning, but I dare not. It is indeed a pleasure to me.

“But … I have prepared your delicacies. You need to check them out after shower.”
