Read Story: SEASON 1 EPISODE 74
Uche came into the room after
Blessing had left. He met me lying
on the bare floor like a lynched
criminal. He walked past me,
lowered the volume of the
television set, sat down on one
of the two plastic stools he came
in with and watched me with his
arms folded across his chest.
.
”Guy na wetin na? Why you dey
look me like say I thief your
boxers?” I managed to ask him
when it was obvious whatever
he had wanted to say was not
forthcoming.
”Hmmm, nawao,” Uche said
while shaking his head.
”Where did you pick that ekpo
from?” he continued. I could see
some expression of
bewilderment on his face. ‘Ekpo’
is an Igbo word which literally
translates to masquerade. I had
always informed him whenever I
made a new catch and he also
did same when he had interest
in someone even though he may
not get to execute the project to
completion.
”Nwanne, na dat babe we bin
meet for Iykeman shop,” I
managed to respond while
dragging myself up from the
floor to the bed.
”Which girl be dat?” he said
rhetorically as he dug deep into
his memory.
”Wait o! No tell me say na dat
babe wey we see her back dat
day,” he shouted while I simply
nodded weakly. His laughter was
all over the place. He laughed so
hard that he choked from his
own amusement. I need not to
be told the reason behind the
laughter. With my last strength I
narrated to him all that I had
passed through in the hands of
Blessing. He had a field day
laughing while I sometimes
dramatized the events of my
encounter. I pleaded with him
not to disclose this to any of our
friends especially Zubi and Piwo.
I told Uche that would be the last
time I would invite her or so I
thought. It would automatically
mean a social suicide if those
two learnt of it. They would stop
at nothing with their taunts until
I gave up and drank rat poison.
Piwo is even the more deadly
among the two. His theatrical
prowess especially when it
comes to decribing a funny or
embarrassing situation is classic.
He sure would make everyone
listening cry rivers of laughter
provoked tears while the victim
will be left in a pathetic
condition. Piwo’s scorn is a
death sentence and that was
why I took enough time and
humbleness pleading with Uche
to keep sealed of this experience.
He did kept the secret but not for
too long.
.
My relationship with the girls
continued. Nasa was my booty-
call number one; she would
always rush down to Agbani
whenever any of us felt a sekxual
need for the other. She never
demanded anything else from
me aside sekx. She played the
game every sekxually active guy
would love to be part of –
enjoying sekxual pleasure with
no commitment.
.
Blessing aka ‘ekpo’ was also
there. She had visited more than
six times since our first
encounter a few weeks ago;
blame it on ‘konji’. I made sure
she always came whenever Uche
travelled out of Agbani. I was so
Hot a certain night that I needed
someone, in fact anyone female
and matured, to offload my load.
I had scrolled down my phone
contact list, found her number
and gave her a call. She came and
we did our thing. She had
managed to sleep over twice
already but always left at first
light. I always hid my head inside
the pillow when it was time for
us to sleep just to avoid the
unwanted from happening since
she had refused my advice to
deforest and lumber the
mangrove forest in her armpit.
She whined how she disliked
shaving her armpit hair saying it
made her feel ‘somehow’.
*wetin concern agbero with
overload? My own na to chop,
clean mouth and wait for the
next time go dey hungry*
Meanwhile, I made sure she only
visited in the night when noone
could see her face clearly. There
was never a time she came
during the day throughout the
course of our fuc’kery. She was
the booty-call number two.
.
On the other hand, Commy was
beginning to make her way into
my heart. She dominated a large
percentage of my ear-time. I
spent hours on the phone with
her everyday especially during
the MTN free call periods
spanning 12:30am through
4:30am. I had officially made her
my girlfriend number two. Her
joy new no bounds as she prided
with me to her friends.
*E no easy to get guy wey dey
school na, hahahaha*
Unknown to her, it was part of
my plans to re-orientate her.
Commy had complained that her
‘friend’ was becoming more
jealous and bitter each passing
day because she hardly gave her
the ‘attention’ she wanted. I was
doing a good job
reprogramming Commy’s
corrupted orientation. She
should be alright in a few
months and then I will gradually
withdraw to allow a geniune guy
entrance into her heart. She was
making significant progress in
the psychological part and
romance part of the project but
unknown to me she was getting
deeper and more deeper into
me. She had gone too emotional
with me to the extent of idolizing
me as her ‘Hero’. A little dispute
between us always ends in tears
and hunger strike. She had totally
surrendered her being to me and
that was making me
uncomfortable. It was more than
what I had bargained. I believed
time will settle everything.
