“I didn’t come for a friendly visit, please leave Samuel and i alone, we didn’t do anything to you” i barked at him furiously, while his smile quickly died away, as my words hit him like a disfigured 504 salon car…….
_
Linda equally stared at me with confusion in her eyes, while David quickly controlled his surprise and forced out a smile again,
_
“Come inside lets discuss, i don’t understand your outburst” he said to me, but i just eyed him furiously and walked away fearlessly……..
_
‘Imagine the idiot even have a girl in his room, tomorrow he will claim that she is his sister mtcheeeew” i said with a long sigh as i walked towards Samuel’s room…….
_
“Where did you go?” he anxiously asked, as soon as i entered his room,
_
“I went to give that silly David a piece of my mind” i replied, while his face coloured immediately……
_
“Are you crazy? What did you just do?” he asked with a slightly raised tone, while my eyes equally sparkled with anger as i stared at him….
_
“You asked whether i’m crazy right? No wahala i brought all these problems and insults upon myself” i said angrily, stood up and left his room,
_
“No wait i never meant to insult you” i heard him plead, as he rushed up and held my left hand, but i snatched it from him and walked into my room……..
_
He knocked on my door for hours, called my phone countless times, and even sent me lots of text messages that evening, which i all ignored, because i really wanted to punish him a little, though i must confess i enjoyed every bit of it……..
_
I equally heard David’s ‘pattern of knocking’ on my door later in the night, i equally ignored it and slept away…….
_
Early the next day, i went downstairs with my bucket to fetch water, because i earlier planned to travel home that fateful day.
_
“Hello” i heard a feminine voice greet, as i was filling my bucket with tap water, i turned instantly with a smile, and there stood the same girl i saw in David’s room the previous day staring at me……
_
“What’s up dear” i replied politely,
_
“Do you recognize me?” she asked,
_
“Of course i do. Were you not the girl i saw in David’s room yesterday?” i replied and asked,
_
“Yea i’m the girl, i’m so sorry for being a little rude to you yesterday” she apologized, while i laughed,
_
“Were you rude to me? Hmmm i didn’t even notice it, anyway it’s cool my name is Mary” i said to her,
_
“Thanks dear, mine is Linda” she replied,
_
“Yea i know” i said with a smile as i carried my bucket, while she blushed…….
_
“Please there is something i wish to sit down and discuss with you” she humbly pleaded. I stared at her in surprise and breathed deeply,
_
“I’m travelling today, but i’ll be back by tomorrow afternoon, will tomorrow evening be okay for you?” i asked,
_
“Yea it will, i will come over to your room” she replied with glittering eyes, which made her look even more beautiful.
_
“Do you know my room?” i asked with surprise,
_
“of course i do” she replied with a smile,
_
“okay till then” i said as i nodded in agreement, before walking away with my bucket of water, while my thoughts kept me company, as i wondered what she really wanted to discuss with me…

I really couldn’t relax when i finally travelled home that fateful day, as i kept on wondering what Linda wanted to discuss with me, but then i really had no clue nor choice, than to have patience till the next evening when we scheduled our meeting for…….
_
“I don’t understand you anymore, are you still angry with me?” i heard Samuel ask, when i finally answered his phone call later in the evening. Truly i equally was so glad to hear his voice, because even though i really was angry with him, for the tone and words he used on me the previous day, i equally knew i also was at fault…..
_
“Let’s just forget about it, it’s all in the past” i replied calmly,
_
“Thank God you know, anyway where are you?” he asked,
_
“I travelled home but i will be back tomorrow” i replied,
_
“My God! See your way nah, you just travelled without informing me?” he accused bitterly,
_
“I’m sorry, though you caused it” i muttered quietly…….
____________________________
I returned the next day, with a heavy pocket, and lots of foodstuffs which gladened my heart and made me very happy,
_
“GOD bless you mummy” i sang to myself…….
_
2pm, After i had kept all my foodstuffs in their locations, i freshened up and headed to Samuel’s room, dressed in my black sleeveless top and a short. With a bowl of oranges, guava and English pear on my left hand, i knocked on his door, which opened seconds later,……
_
“Oh goodness me!” he exclaimed immediately his eyes fell on me. I smiled and cat-walked into his room,
_
“Did you miss me?” i asked with a smile,
_
“Of course i missed you” he replied instantly as he stared at me with a surprising look……..
_
“Here are the fruits i brought for you, hope you know how to peel oranges?” i asked with a smile, as i stood up seconds later,
_
“No i don’t know how to peel them” he replied jokingly.
_
“I will peel them for you later in the evening, i want to go and prepare soup with the ingredients my mum gave me, before they get spoilt” i explained, while he breathed deeply,
_
“Okay then lets go together” he said with a smile,
_
“No don’t bother i’m expecting a friend” i replied. He bit his lips and stared at me suspiciously, but luckily for him, he didn’t ask any stupid question which could have brought another problem between us……..
_
“Okay then, i guess i’ll have to wait here for the soup” he said with a forced smile,
_
“I never said i was bringing any for you” i joked, touched his jaw and left without another word……..
_
I really do love to cook, and it really is one of the qualities i inherited from my mum, who never gets tired of cooking even when her children is around.
_
I was soon done with the soup minutes later, and as i was about bringing it down from my stove, i heard gentle knocks on my door……
_
“Hey dear, hope i came at the right time?” linda asked sweetly, when i opened my door a minute later,
_
“Yea dear, infact you came at the right time, i just finished cooking a pot of soup” i replied politely,
_
“Hmmm really!, i thought you just returned?” she asked, while i just smiled and shrugged,
_
“kpom kpom kpommm kpom kpom kpom kpom!” David’s pattern of knocking soon sounded on my door, moments later as we were about settling down for discussion,
_
“Who could be knocking this way?” i heard linda ask,
_
“I think it’s David” i answered with a smile as i watched her face, while she instantly gasped in fear…….
