Must Read: Circle Of Three - Season 1 - Episode 14

‘You see, that’s why you can’t continue with
Adedayo.’ She told Cassie. They had been
discussing in a lecturer’s office at the Chemistry
section of White House for an hour. She had
gone ahead to tell her about the traditions of
her tribe and the rules that follows and Cassie
understood that as it stands, Adedayo will be a
king some day and they will not stand a non-
Yoruba girl been the queen.
‘Okay ma.’ Cassie replied.
‘See, it is not that I hate you, in fact if I had
known you earlier, you will probably have
visited his house and my place. But its what
tradition entails.’

She was about to ask if there was a way to go
around it, but she sighed and decided not to. If
Adedayo, who was the woman’s son and an
indigene could not stop it, how will she, a
stranger do? These are not the days of Mary
Slessor.
‘Fine ma, I understand.’
‘You are a very good and intelligent girl. She
said, tapping her head. I have to go, I can’t say
here again, since I have fulfilled my mission.’
Cassie watched as she walked outside, before
picking the phone to call Courage. She then
decided to send a text message to Adedayo,
telling him what happened.

As she located and greeted Courage, a number
called her.
It was Adedayo.

Cassie picked it up, keeping silent to hear what
Adedayo was going to say.
‘Cassie, I know you are there, please let’s meet.’
“Where?”
‘At my place in Quarters.’
‘Fine, am coming there now.’ She dropped the
call.
‘What happened?’ Courage asked.
‘Its a long story, but I have to meet Adedayo
now. Am sorry, see you later.’ She ran off as
Courage shook her head in disapproval.
‘After wasting my time.’ She muttered to herself
before resigning herself to walking to
Maintenance herself.

Linda, what is it that you want? Justus asked,
obviously irritated.
‘Justus, abeg help me beg Ken, please beg your
friend for me.’ Linda said, looking remorseful.
‘Wetin you expect make I do now? After you
don disgrace yourself and made yourself
unwanted, you are now bringing the rags to
Ken, abeg he go get magic.’

Linda started kneeling down and was begging
Justus in local Edo language, obviously they
were from the same place.
‘Ok, I will help you, but on one condition.’ He
said.
‘Mention any condition, I will do it, even if its
expensive.’ Linda was far too desperate to care.
‘It is not expensive, but I doubt you will accept
it.’
“What is it?”
‘I want to taste what you were about to give
Tunji first.’ Justus said, smirking his lips.

Linda looked appalled for some minutes,
obviously shocked at his statement. Justus was
enjoying seeing the shock on her face.
“See, that’s my condition. If you can’t meet it,
go to blazes!”
“Aha, Justus please ask for something else, not
this.”
‘I have told you already, it looks like you are not
ready.’ He started walking away.
Linda went after him, and pulled him back.
‘Okay, I will do it.’ She said, a bit ashamed.
‘You will allow me to f*ck you?’ Justus said,
looking with lust at her well packaged assets.
‘Yes, but it will be at my place. I can’t do it in
Awo hall, I beg you.’
‘Ok na, but no tricks or else you will regret it.’
He warned her.
‘When will you come?’
‘Tomorrow.’ He said, deciding that a day’s
pleasure will not harm his academics.
‘Ok tomorrow, bye, bye.’

As she walked away, he smirked again.
‘Mumu.’ He said to himself before calling Friday,
his ally in such matters. Meanwhile as she
walked away, she called a number.
‘Kayode, call Tijani. I get job for una!’
Cassie stormed to Adedayo’s residence and
knocked. It took less than a second for Demola
to open the door. On sighting Cassie, he asked
no questions but opened the door and called
Adedayo.
‘Your babe don show.’

Adedayo quickly dropped the game he was
playing on his system and meet Cassie.
‘Good afternoon.’ He said.
‘Good evening.’
‘Cassie, I don’t what my mum told you but
please allow me to explain.’
‘She told me everything.’ Cassie went ahead to
relay all what she and his mother discussed.
‘Ade, I am not even angry that you are
dumping me, what is annoying me is that you
could not tell me, I now have to hear it from
your mother.’
‘Cassie, I am sorry. I did not know how to tell
you, we have spent a year already together, my
love for you has only increased not decreased, I
have had big plans for you only for this to
happen. I have not recovered fully from this
and exams are just around the corner. I
thought of you and how you have worked hard,
I can’t just destabilize you with this news.’
‘Its okay, I just wanted to clear it up with you.’

Cassie answered.
‘Cassie, please forgive me.’ He requested.
‘What have you done wrong? I have nothing to
forgive.’
‘Please.’
‘Okay I have forgiven you.’ She hugged him for
full effect.
‘I have to go.’
‘Okay, bye, bye.’ He said bravely.

As she stepped out of his house, she did not
walk but sat down crying.

The same thing was happening in the room, as
he sat down.
Shedding hot tears.
