Must Read: The Devil Who Loved Me

We were sitted when the vice-chancellor came
into the conference room. Earlier, Abayomi had
called me that we had been summoned by the
vice-chancellor for an emergency meeting.
National and his deputy were to our left. Prof
Akinbiyi, the VC was a man of medium build, his
grey hair was bushy. I wondered if most
professors generally scattered their hair to look
mofasa.
VC: how are u doing?


We answered that we were fine. He didn’t beat
around the bush, he wanted to inform us that
the school management would support any
candidate that won , that we would be partners
and if we had any grandiose plans that might
conflict with the vision of the school if elected.
After the meeting I had the opportunity to
explain to Abayomi what had happened earlier
when Yewande came to my lecture hall. I told
him I wasn’t comfortable with Jafar’s kind of
security.
Abayomi: why don’t you want to go?
Me: why should I go?
Abayomi: are you scared?
Me: nope, but I shouldn’t be visiting a guy by
7pm in his house na
Abayomi: I want you to go, I want you to ask
him about National’s involvement in the Ijebu-
igbo fracas.


Me: why don’t you ask him yourself?
Abayomi: I would be going to Ikenne to
campaign to the medical students, Timi and
myself.
Me: how is Timi?
Abayomi: he is fine, he sends his regards
Me: tell him I send mine too
Abayomi: you should call the guy sometimes,
he misses you.
Me: why should he miss me, he has Annie
Abayomi: does he?
Me: what do you mean?
Abayomi: I think you both should sit down and
talk, that’s all..
Me: I hear…how is kofo?
Abayomi: we are over
Me: because I am going to quit if you don’t stop
ramming her
Abayomi looked at me and winked.
Toun and I were watching Prison Break in her
room when we heard a knock on the door, it
was 7pm and I thought Abayomi had changed
his mind about going to Ikenne. Uche was by
the door.


Uche: hope you are ready?
Me: Jafar sent you?
Uche: yes, I am waiting outside.
Toun: Tee, should I come with you?
Me: nope don’t worry, lemme just change my
clothe
Twenty minutes later, Uche drove me to Jafar’s
crib.
