Diary of a broke Naija playboy - S01 E18

Read Story: SEASON 1 EPISODE 18

For the rest of the week i was run down by

fever. I couldn’t stand erect and had to lay on

my bed while my mom did all her quack

prescriptions for me. I wasn’t getting better

and worst still, i had to stay at home alone

when everyone else leaves for work. Amara

who could have looked after me was sick too,

not as much as i was but it was something.

Chinaza’s love for me seemed to be rekindled

at that point in time. She would stay around

me, prepare special dishes for me and force

me to eat them cos even though i made

requests for those foods, i didn’t have the

appetite to eat them. She spent most of her

time tending to me.

On the third day, i noticed rashes were coming

out of my body but i didn’t border much about

it, i named it heat rashes and not until the

fourth day that it also showed up on Amara’s

body that i was freaked out.

I had always known there would be

repercussions for my Sekxual promiscuity but i

never expected it to be STD.

Even though i don’t usually use protection, i

had always thought i was immune to all those

STD stuff. I began going lean back to back

and i lost interest in anything around me.

I soon began to expect Naza to fall ill too and

i wasn’t disappointed. Hers started lightly

although there were no spots on her body, she

was down with fever and often coughed.

I silently prayed to God every minute and

swore with my manhood that should he take

all this away from me, i would never ever

stare at a girl twice in fact that i won’t even

have a girlfriend.

I had confided in James who at first laughed

and said i was being too serious until i told

him about Amara and Chinaza. He then

suggested i asked each of them if they were

fukking anyone behind me. I had questioned

Amara about her Sekxual activities and she

had sworn she only had S£x with me all her

life. I didn’t even dare broach the topic with

Naza or the whole of our neighborhood would

have heard about it since i’m obviously the

one circulating the strange illness. I kept

thinking of all my recent escapades and trying

to see which of the girls was likely to have

given me the disease.

I didn’t have to look around much.

At exactly 12am on the sixth day, Cynthia

called me.

“Hey baby” she seemed excited over the

phone.

“Wassup” i said weakly

“I’m fine, just missing you”

“Thank you, so why are you calling me this

early morning?”

“Nothing much, just wanted to make sure you

are ok”

“Well, i’m sick” i said

“I thought as much” she said and i became

suspicious.

“What does that mean?”

“well, i got sick and went for a test, i was

diagnosed with staphylococcus, anyway i’m

undergoing treatment and i think I’m getting

better. Just thought you should know”

I was sweating as she was talking.

“Cynthia you came to my house and gave me

std? I asked not knowing if i was crying or

not.

“Baby its not like that, we are not even sure

if you were not the one that gave it to me,

you know we both aren’t saints” she said and

laughed, she sounded so carefree which is

more than i can say for myself.

After we dropped the call, the questions that

kept hitting my mind was how i was going to

tell my people i had contacted an std and had

transferred it to Chinaza and Amara….

AMARA …. I cried in the darkness and prayed

God to cleanse me of my iniquities. I was

almost close to swearing that i would quit

school and enter the seminary should he save

me from the shame i was about to bring to

myself.

As if that wasn’t enough, the next morning,

Chinaza walked in looking a bit better but her

face was all moody.

“Whats wrong with you? ” i asked her.

” Chinecherem I went for a test ”

My heart sank as i waited for her to tell me

about the Std, i was sure she was going to

raise hell for me.

” And what did it say? ” i asked with my heart

pounding like a mortar.

” I’m 2 months pregnant ” she said looking at

me. At this point i didn’t know what was going

on in my mind, i didn’t know whether to be

glad she wasn’t infected or to freak out about

the pregnancy. I just decided i was in in deep

shhit either way. We spent over 3 minutes

staring at nothing without talking.

Chinaza got up from the bed and left without

exchanging any word. I know I would marry

her for sure, i mean i wasn’t going to abort

my own baby, i loved naza and i wasn’t going

to regret marrying her but the disease that

was in me, what if naza had it too and some

way it affects the baby.

I just wished my whole life was a dream as i

la!d on my bed and cried. My Penance had

decided to come together in a day and i would

rather die than face it. I soon began

contemplating suicide but i loved my life and

wasn’t going to leave all these fine girls

behind. I hadn’t even driven my dream car, a

Lamborghini.

I was in my room still mourning myself when

Amara came in and sat besides me on the

bed.

She bent and kissed me. In my mind i was like

“The staphylococcus you get never do you,

maybe you wan collect aids join am too” i

thought but I was too weak to speak.

“Neche don’t worry, we found out its just

measles that i got from Chioma my friend and

you caught it” she said and smiled.

I jerked up from my bed feeling partially

healed.

“Are you sure?” I asked her not knowing

whether to kiss her or to verify.

She nodded. I grabbed her and kissed her so

passionately. Chinaza walked into my room

just as we had disengaged and with a wide

grin on her face shouted “APRIL FOOOL” .

Confused i checked my phone and the date

was April 1.

My full healing was like a miracle…..
