Read Story: SEASON 1 EPISODE 65

I smiled at his sentimental message and quickly typed a reply

‘only if you’d mind your business instead of masturbating on my issue, am sure one of the women beside you would have given you her number by now, Idiot’

I put the phone on vibration and returned it into my pockets

“your story touches the heartstrings but I don’t buy it, how do you expect me to believe that a big boy like you doesn’t have a girlfriend?” Favour enquired adjusting a bit on the seat so that her right shoulder was now pinning against mine

“the same way am also wondering how a big beautiful babe like you doesn’t have a boyfriend”

“hmmm, impressive, but wait, how do you know that am single?” She questioned with a confused look

“lets just say its one of my many talents” I replied with an arrogant tone

“really, as in you are a psychic or what?”

“nope…lets just say I’ve been bestowed with a very special ability to read peoples mind”

She opened her mouth agape and stared long in my eyes

“its like you don’t believe me” I cleared my throat “well, I can give you a proof, like telling you” I leaned closer to her and whispered “what the driver is thinking right now”

“ok, prove it” She stated with enthusiasm

“he’s thinking right now of how he’s going to deal seriously with anybody that fail to pay him his money”

“ahahahah, thats a fluke o, tell me another thing, am not yet convinced” She stated sceptically

“I know your type, you don’t believe unless you see a gun, anyway, I can tell you what you are thinking right now, if that ll convince you”

“you can tell me what am I thinking right now?”

I took a long deep stare at her beautiful hazel eyes and was totally mesmerized by her astonishing beauty and ritzy outlooks

“still waiting Darous” Favour snapped me out of my lustful gaze on her body

“isn’t it obvious? My name has occupied atleast 90% of your homo-sapien C.P.U”

“come on don’t be riddi….culous,” she said amid chuckles “why would I be thinking of you?”

“your exact thoughts were, ‘Gawd I’ll be the luckiest woman on earth to have this handsome guy as my hubby, I’ll do everything in my power to make sure he’s mine. Infact make thunder fire the….driver’s left brest if I don’t marry this dude” I completed the statement in a whisper which triggered a prolonged hysterical laughter in her

My phone vibrated and I ignored it thinking it was Jide, but when I glanced back he was already asleep

Favour was slowly dropping the laughter. She took out a white handkerchief and mopped her watery eyes

I checked the caller thinking of who could be calling me, and it was Joke

Oh! Sh!t, how do I talk to her without Favour getting suspicious? I cleared my throat and placed the phone on my ear after swiping the call icon to the receiving icon

“hello love, have you gotten there?” Joke’s concerned tone queried from the earpiece

“no, not yet, but almost”

“but its almost 9’oclock, thought you said its a 3hrs journey”

“thats when travelling in a G-wagon, not in a snaily Datsun sunny” I replied in an audible whisper

“alright, call me when you arrive your home town ok?”

“sure. Bye” She responded with a ‘i love you’ but I ignored it and ended the conversation. I put the phone on my laps and glanced at Favour who seems to be less concerned with my call

We were now at the last ‘O’ of the journey when we ran into another hold up.

A newspaper vendor flashed a Tribune at me and urged me to buy it

“can I refresh it after reading it? Or can it update automatically?” I asked the newspaper vendor as the car was moving slowly at a snail pace

The vendor shot me a confused look and ran after another car

Why should I buy something that can not refresh itself? Waste of money!

“so..” I cleared my throat trying to rekindle our conversation “where is this angel heading to?”

I got no reply, I glanced at her and saw her dozing off. Hmmmm, she must have had a sleepless night, or why is she sleeping inside a car full of strangers?

I was still lost in thought at her beautiful face when she dropped her head on my shoulder and continued her sleep

Wow! It seems she already see’s a guardian angel in me, or why would she place her head on my shoulder? I thought

***

We finally arrived at the last ‘A’ of the journey and the car pulled off at the bustop

Favour and Jide were awoken by the driver.

I got down and approached the nearby gutter to offload my full bladder

Jide already got our luggages and was standing beside the driver waiting for me to come and pay the T.fare

“baba, how much is our money?” I asked the driver while dipping my hand in my brest pocket only to find it empty

“I don tell you say na 7k” the man replied but I was still busy ransacking my pockets for my wallet

“Darous pay the man and lets be going na?”

“Jide, I can’t find my wallet na” I said with an exasperated tone

“what!” he lamented and glanced around “Darous where is that lady with you?”.

We searched around for Favour but she was nowhere to be found.
