*EPISODE 10*
He tried to kiss me again, but i politely
pushed his face away, and his expression
changed as he looked at me curiously,
βHope i no fall hands by confessing to youβ
he anxiously asked in pidgin english, while i
bursted into laughter,
βNo dear you didnβtβ i answered amidst
laughter
he kept quiet and just watched meβ¦β¦.
βItβs just that i have to get going, because i
have a school assignment i wish to tackle
this eveningβ i explained, while he shrugged,
βOkay, but i do feel you are running away
from meβ he replied, and i breathed deeply,
βDear i will return once iβm done with my
assignmentβ i assured him, while he
shrugged again,
βItβs okay and also remember to bring
another plate of rice when comingβ he
added. I then got up with a smile and left
his roomβ¦β¦..
I truly had no assignment to do that
evening, but i only wanted to be alone for a
moment, in order to control and calm
myself down, because i didnβt want to
betray my excitement, moreover his
confession really overwhelmed me, because
i never dreamt iβd be so lucky to have a
male virgin, whom i like so much for
myselfβ¦β¦
βHmmm am i not a lucky girl?β i asked my
image as i stared at my mirror with a smile,
and just that moment i heard a knock on
my doorβ¦β¦β¦
I opened my door happily, because i
thought it was Mariam, my best friend who
was at my door, because she earlier
promised to show up, but my smile quickly
disappeared when i saw David standing at
the door wayβ¦β¦.
βHello pretty girl i came to keep you
companyβ he said with a smile as he walked
into my room, without even waiting for me
to admit him in, while i froze in fear
because everyone knew him as a N otorious
Cultist β¦..
However David really was a very handsome
and rich guy, who spoiled himself by
belonging to a cult group, and he so much
was into it, that he was very popular within
and outside the hostel and school
environment, and he equally was a boy who
thought the world only revolved around
money and cultismβ¦β¦
As he sat on my bed with a smile, i
wondered what really brought him to my
room, by that time of the dayβ¦β¦β¦..
He crossed his leg as he stared at me with
a confident smile, while i sat on my plastic
chair and faced him with a drawn face.
Even though i was scared, i never showed it
βAre you not happy that i came to your
room?β I heard him ask, while i shook my
head and forced out a smile,
βIβm not feeling fine, and i was even about
to sleep before you knockedβ i repliedβ¦β¦..
βBut i just saw you coming out from
Samuelβs room minutes ago?β he asked
knowingly. I just kept quiet and held my jaw
with both hands,
βBut on a serious note why is a pretty girl
like you, always hanging out with someone
with no *swag*?β he asked with a serious
look on his face. I breathed deeply as i
stared into his eyes with disgust,
βI like boys with no swagβ i replied, in a
manner which would even make a brave
βjew studentβ raise his eye brow in fear, but
i cared not, because i really didnβt like even
the air he breathedβ¦β¦.
βBaby we are not quarreling nah? Please
iβm also your friendβ he said calmly, while i
shifted uneasily on my chair,
βIβm so sorry for the tone i used, itβs just
that i need to rest, pleaseβ i said to him,
while he shruggled, stood up and came to
my sideβ¦β¦.
βOkay dear i will check on you tomorrow,
please do take care of yourselfβ he said to
me as he caressed my hair a bit, while i
held my breath as i equally restricted
myself from making any annoying
comment, because his touch really was very
irritating, but then i equally was more
annoyed with his composure, because he
just behaved confidently as if he owned
both i and the hostelβ¦β¦..
He finally left my room with a well
composed smile, which really annoyed me
more, but i soon forgot all about him as i
rested for a while, before warming my rice,
and dishing out some for Samuel as
promisedβ¦β¦
However as i stepped out from my room
with a plate of rice around 9:00pm, i ran
into him again, as he was coming out from
the hostel balcony, and he smiled as he
saw me,
βnne seems like you are now okay?β he
asked jovially, while i smiled and passed
himβ¦β¦β¦
Samuel was very happy when i brought the
rice for him, and he thanked me countless
times as he devoured it, while i smiled
confidently as i watched him eatβ¦β¦.
I really didnβt tell him about Davidβs visit,
which appeared very irrelevant to be
discussed at that time, but then a part of
me really urged me to tell him, but i
suppressed and kept it to myself, even
though i really didnβt know whether i did the
right thing, especially with the events which
later unfolded (Another great mistake most
ladies make)β¦β¦.
βPlease can you sleep in my room tonight?β
i heard myself ask Samuel, who froze for a
while as he stared at me in surprise. I really
didnβt know what pushed me to make such
demand, but i guess it was because I was very
much scared of David and what he could
do, which really didnβt make a whole lot of
sense, but then i equally knew in my mind
that i secretly wish to spend the night with
Samuel..,β¦
However i also knew what i did when i
made such demand, because as a girl it
could have been easier for me to sleep in
his room, but because of my pride i had
rephrased my demand, which i knew any
sharp guy would understand the hidden
meaningβ¦β¦..
But Samuel really was at lost on what to
say, and he just stared at me for a while
before he was able to find his voice,
βHope everything is okay?β he asked with
concern, while i just nodded,
βYea itβs just that iβm having a bad feeling
which is making me to be scaredβ i replied,
βDonβt worry dear, i will be by your side
tonightβ he assured me with a smile, while i
smiled in appreciation, even though i
equally was disappointed that he didnβt
insist for me to sleep in his room, which
most guys would have doneβ¦β¦.
However nothing really happened that night
in my room, even though we both laid
awake till very late in the night. I really was
awake because it was my first time of
spending the night with another boy, since i
broke up with my Ex, while i easily noticed
that Samuel was also awake, because he
kept tossing around on my bed. I really
didnβt know whether it was because he was
uncomfortable in my room that made him
toss around, or because he was summoning
the courage to touch meβ¦β¦.
He finally drew close and held me, which
delighted me very much, but i kept quiet
and pretended to be asleep. To my greatest
dismay he didnβt go further or do anything
else to me, before we finally sleptβ¦β¦.
Hmmmm, since that night, my respect
for him equally grew, because he behaved
like a real gentleman who he has always
claimed to be.
We woke up very late the following
morning, and it was a steady knock on my
door which really woke us, and i really was
forced to open my door, when the person
knocking refused to give upβ¦β¦..
It was precisely 7:05AM when i opened my
door that fateful morning, to see David
standing on my door-way, with hands in his
pocket, and a fixed smile on his faceβ¦β¦..
What was his plan?
Did he get to know that Samuel and i slept
together on the same bed the previous
night?
Weβll know in the next episode
