Read Story: SEASON 1 EPISODE 47
There was something that pulled
me closer to her like a magnet. “we thank jehovah,what of your
mother?”oge asked
flippantly,darting her eyes from
one object to another.
Her gaze stopped at the plasma
telivision and the home theater,i could see the fire of admiration in
her eyes as they caressed the
electronics.
“she went out” i replied and took a
deep breath,we got engrossed in a
petty conservation in which chioma wasnt involved.
I so much craved to hear her voice
and i prayed ogechi would excuse
Us so I would apologise for my
nasty message a week or
thereabout ago. ~
i woked up around one o clock a.m
and dialled chioma’s number.i was
disappointed and crestfallen when
the ‘oyibo voice’ remarked “the mtn
mumber you are trying to call is kindly switched off please try
again later thank you”
thank wetin?? I hissed angrilly.
Chioma..chioma..
I havent felt for anyone this way.
Imagine I emeka that hardly gives females money or anything,readily
gave chioma a new model,hot
cake asha 205 nokia phone
without h_avin any regreat
I had to do something,i quickly
dialled nkeiru’s number,she picked the call on second ring,as if she
had been waiting for my call.
“babe am sorry for waking you” i
started,groping for the right words.
“no probs” she replied,her voice
sounded croakish,i had squalms,i shouldnt have woken her up this
early.
“babe there is something i want us
to discuss about”
“yeah go on.”
i took a deep breath and rapidly said a silent prayer for luck.
“angel i dont know how this may
sound to you…”i paused and
sighed.
I wished i had the gift of oratory
like my once friend chuka. “nkeiru listen to me and please try
to understand,am saying this not
because i dont love you but
because i want a great future for
our children”
i paused dramatically. Future and children?? No be
today..i mused.
