  "Omotara? Omotara?" My eyes slit open. I couldn't see—it was all blurs and greys. I blinked and shifted on the quite comfy surface I was laid on. The smell of coffee sifting into my nose."Darling?..."I hummed and moaned as I regained as I turned and squirmed in my sleepy state of utter unconsciousness. My eyes slowly wound open. I could've sworn right at that moment, I saw my spirit jump out of my body, bidding me farewell for standing in front of me was the woman I feared the most in my life! Her unconventionally pretty face was configured into a worried look that made her all the more pretty, and her glossy lips slashed upwards. Then her mole—the nasty black pimple that refused to go—tugged up with the rest of her skin."Mum!" I quickly sat up. Turns out in the process I scattered the white bed spread I laid on."C

  I frowned, then scowled; then anger took over. "You're not thinking straight!" I lashed at him. "You're a fool to think so. Ah, ah!""Or you are the bigger fool, Omotara." He snapped back and stared at me with his characteristic bored eyes, then his countenance changed to that of seriousness as his eyes burned in mine. "You're a big fool to have seen those gashes on her wrists and not have suspected a thing.""Those gashes?" I murmured to myself in puzzlement. "Those gashes. She fell in a gutter. She fell... I practically tended to her wound."He shook his head and mimicked me. "You practically tended to her wound..." Motioning his head the way Bollywood actors did in ZeeWorld movies."You killed that girl." He puzzled me. I... Why did he keep on saying that! I was d

  "What do you possibly know that I don't." I toned up challengingly as though I was going to fight him any minute. Maybe I would.He quickly licked his lips conspicuously which had obviously dried and crackled. "You really want to know.""Of course, yes. I have every right to know. Why would you even tell me if I wouldn't want to know" I paused, stopping myself from being sassy and insensitive, I've been that for the past few weeks now. "Martin, please tell me." I waited in perfect silence."I'm sorry if I sounded crazy, Omotara, I just want you to know that I've really got your back, you don't have to—""Go on with the news, Martin." I couldn't help but recognize how I sounded like Fatima there.He sighed, "would you at least sit down first?""There are n

  "Cancer is not who I am." She steadied her gaze on me. "Cancer is just a part of my life o." I quickly turned away in embarrassment as my hobby for the past seven days had been to stare-stare at her. Stare at the girl that had cancer like she was some new state of the art facility. I compulsorily glanced back."I'm sorry. I'm really sorry. I was just... meditating."I had been lost in thought staring at her on her top bunk while trying to come to terms with the fact that coincidentally she was my new roommate and much more coincidentally, that the girl 'I had saved'- as the doctor had put it when I was leaving the hospital a week ago-was my roommate too!Alright, this doesn't add up!"No problem o, Mister Lukumon."

  I was rushed to the hospital... I mean, I wasn't rushed to the hospital. I more like, rushed someone to the hospital-in every sense of the word. I had rescued a girl from dying today, but I didn't feel like a superhero; I felt miserable.She had stabbed herself in the belly. The belly of all places, and I was horrified. I hadn't even settled down considering the fact it was two weeks into resumption and I had officially called my sweet holiday to an abrupt end.I found her in a bushy path a few metres away from the hostel, ask me what I came there to do there and you'd get practically blown off that I could do such a thing.Okay, so, as shameful as it may seem. I came there to ease myself.Don't blame me, I've never been the easing-myself-on-the-road kinda person. Ew(now this sounds fake) But there come times in your life when being proper wouldn't save you. I mean, my bladder was bound to

  It was a Monday, and Mondays were days of Government. I mean the course, Government. How neocolonialism was subtly practiced in Africa, and even Nigeria! You know, I've always Imagined I could squeeze those raving colonialists by their necks, bring their noses to mine, look them in the face, blink twice and scream into their throats: "I love you from the bottomless pit of my heart!" I'm sure It'll echo down there, through their whole being. That should scare one away. One day. One day I would do that.It was not until our Government class was over that I noticed that Martin was around! Wow! He looked really cute and less chubby this time. His sickness had sure made him look more attractive, and what was he doing in 'Block 19'? This block had only halls of computers for students' use with free WiFi, but it was hardly used, and usually empty. Probably because it had once been out of ban from students because it was being abused; u
