2020-09-07 18:28:05It was going to 10(Ten) in the late hour of the night and Shade is still not back yet. What could she be eating or enjoying that she haven't done before? Why is she acting all baby about this? I said to myself as I was walking one corner to another corner in the room. It's exactly 10pm and I have no other choice than to put a call through.
"Hello, am still with Josh and we are having fun, sleep first, I will be home soon" –she said whispering and immediately, hung up on me.
This girl is funny sha. You went out with someone you don't know all because he asked for your number. So, because he asked for your number you kept shitting in your panties and acting all mad and crazy. How dumb is that. Yes, the guy is cute but is that enough reason to go haywire? I lain on my bed as I began to fantasize
If only the guy had just walked up to me. I know we match with each other. He is so cute and tall. He is my type of guy. Why didn't he just approach me? I am the best for him. At least, I would treat him better. What can I do? I need him in my life. He should be mine, he is mine and mine alone. I better have done something lest, this dry bone will have him forever. I was still daydreaming when Shade walked in.
"Seriously? You think you are old enough to be a night child? Why would you even decide to stay out this late, not to talk of staying this late with someone you don't know at all. Someone you just met today, today!" –i said angrily.
"I am really sorry, I didn't really plan to leave you hanging. I guess I was carried away by the fun." –she said in a sober tone.
"Well... I am just looking out for you" – I replied
"I know... I am sorry. Come, sit, let me gist you about today, abi you don't want to listen?" –she said jumping up and holding my hands at same time.
"Hmmm Oya, make we hear the rubbish you and your baby king's way go do" [let me hear the rubbish you went to do] – I replied
"Ah ah, what's rubbish naw. Well... You know he called earlier today telling me he'd like to take me out. And as soon as 7pm, I had dashed out to meet him up at the front of Tantalizers where he came out to meet me. He appeared so appealing and wore a very nice smile. His teeth were so white like snow that it was reflecting like crystals. Don't even get me started about his aroma, he aromas like damask rose oil and that moment I sniff his fragance I found myself in paradise. When he spoke to me, greeting me and thanking me for coming, his accent was like god of wonders. I realised so many things I didn't when he approached me in the morning o"
"Ehnn ehnn, oya tell me more" –I said
"When he took my hands and held me, the atmosphere was like as if we were couples. I could tell that everyone was wishing they were us. Like it was a magical moment. We sat by a table at a corner and he order for just chicken. Trust, I was very shy to unleash my craziness o. You know I like chicken na"– she said while she chuckled with her tongue resting on her lips
"So, u ate the chicken?" – I asked
"No jor, me that I was pretending to be a good girl. I mean I ate it o but I didn't really eat it like I would on a normal day. Me that I will crumble the bones with my evil teeth, I was just eating with lot of table manner. My mouth was not even making a sound, I swear" –she laughed
"Ode"[stupid] –i said jokingly
"I Sha use style to eat the chicken to an extent and pretended as if I was okay while I kept on staring at his gaze. Babe trust me, we do say men are handsome but here I will say Joshua is beautiful. Ah! No be small thing!"[for real] – she said and continued
"Olorun,[she sweared] I still wonder why he approached me instead of you. Obviously, I am not in his class and you are more beautiful than I am. Why did he approached me instead of you? I think he is meant for me then. Perhaps I am lucky? Well... Did I mention he asked me out? And since I liked him already I don't think there is a need to beat around the bush, I just gave him a simple yes"
"What, You did what?" – I asked surprisingly
"I said yes naw, bottom line, we are dating officially now. Joshua is now my boyfriend!" – she answered affirmatively
"That's not very cool Shade, you just made yourself cheap in his eyes"
"Well... Being cheap is a risk I am going to take"– she replied.
We were both silence for about 10min and my thoughts had already gone far.
I think it's high time I gave up about even having to think about him. They are now official. Or, could it be that he is only playing Shade. He may just be making advances to pass time with her. I mean guys do that alot. They will just use girls they know has already fallen for them just to kill time. Especially when their real bae is not staying around here. Or, could he be that he is serious and mean business with Shade? Let me even stop thinking about him abi . But the guy – Shade interrupted my thought by breaking the silence.
"Cynthia, you know you should really give love a chance? Not every one will be like Olumide. Stop allowing your past to control you. Yes, experience can be our teacher but we should not let our past make us. It should only make us wiser and stronger. Babe, let the past go and embrace love again."
"Shade you know what Olumide did. Despite all I did for him. Despite all my sacrifice and even all my body, he still cheated. He gave me the dark and stole my light away."– I replied
"I know babe, but it high time you let the past go. Be free and enjoy the gift of nature. Dance, laugh, kiss and fall in love. You know the guy from earlier today do like you and he is cute too" –she said smiling
"You think he'd want to talk back to me after how I did?"
"Of course he would. All he needs is a trigger. –she winked

Poisonous Lips [Nigerian Vibe] Thrusting Forward
It's good to hear when Jeruel told me about the advances she played towards Joshua. Wouldn't shade die of frustration if she finds out how her prince charming was dancing around the beautiful girl she wasn't?Just has Shade assured me about his whereabouts, Jeruel confirmed he was already at J and J bar at seven in the evening. She was already seated in the darkened angle of the bar and watched him sit on the bar stool. Slowly and slowly she walked and sit next to him, tossed a glass of whiskey to him as he gulped it down, and slapped the glass on the bar before turning his face away.I knew Jeruel was the perfect lady for the job. Not only was she beautiful, she was a girl I trust can play her cards right. Now, what man can go all the way without falling in the shackles of a Queen of beauty Queens, a Princess and ambassador of awesomeness.
Poisonous Lips [Nigerian Vibe] Eyes of an Eagle
Dusk was falling rapidly. The sun had already set behind the mountains, and the sky had been drained of colors. It was already the close of a day, wasn't it some seconds ago the day started?Shade and I had just arrived from class. I could see her lips moving but all she said only went through my ear and came out the other. How can I make Joshua mine became a question that seemed a puzzle.“Maybe I need to keep a close watch on him. But, I mean, I don't even know about him than he is dating Shade. I don't know where he lives or anything else.” I took a slow, deep breath as my mind lingered more in thought.“Or, should I just ask her? Would it be a good idea?”Shade was completely carried away by her phone as she continued to laugh in mirthfulness artlessly flowing. I wondered what was so funny but I wasn't that curious to find out. The curiosity I had was tha
Poisonous Lips [Nigerian Vibe] A flock of Gulls
It seemed fast but Jeruel and I were able to get along as we have so many things in common. Though, it has just been two weeks it seemed we have known each other forever and every day In class, I would always go find her, sit with her, and we would talk as much as we want to.She told me a lot from her past relationships; how guys had promised her heaven and earth only to get between her legs. I could deduce from all she told me that she was a girl who loves the physical appearance. Of course, who wants to be with someone with a gorilla face?She was what I termed 'Queen of beauty Queens'. The beauty of a woman must be seen from her eyes. She walked in beauty, like the night of cloudless climes and starry skies. Her magnificent physique was a perfect representation of a goddess. Who dares look at her and not have a second look?
Poisonous Lips [Nigerian Vibe] Breaking a Change
The morning came slowly but the long night was a splendid one. It was nice to hear the birds chorus in harmony and the disturbing voices of other villa mates again. I reflected back into yesterday with a curse that almost vomited from my mouth."Why on earth will a Hausa woman call my line asking for a Muhammad? Why on earth will a strange number not call and the caller should be one of the richest person in Africa? Must it be always a Hausa? Abi e no wan better..."The more I tried to reflect more backward the more Shade's snore hinders my thinking."But wait, how can a lady sleeps so comfortably and snore like a buzz saw. Haven't Joshua seen this side of this girl yet? Some guys can be tasteless Sha, in as much you are under skirt, they must woo you abi, that's what they came to this life to do?" - I muttered."So you love Joshua and can do anything and everything for him. But can h
Poisonous Lips [Nigerian Vibe] New Semester
The atmosphere was glaring and azured. It shined beautifully on each and everyone as students began to troop in and out of the school environment. Shade and I had just resumed like every other students. Such beautiful smile that rested on our faces formed a furrowed brown and we waved to each person as we walked pass them. I couldn't help but imagined what the semester would be like, would it be as unfitting or unacademic like the last semester?Dele and I haven't spoken since the last time I ended things with him. I didn't miss him though, maybe just his touch. He was a guy that really knew how to satisfy his lady. But that wasn't enough, I wanted more. All through the holiday, he would call on few times but I would intentionally not pick his call until he stopped calling for good and that was fine with me.Shade and Joshua are still the love birds soaring high in the high heavens. Shade seemed not to ever grow tired of him and he will no
Poisonous Lips [Nigerian Vibe] Breakup
The breeze injected with multiple endurance as I crawled out of bed to brush my teeth. Though dawn came slowly, it was followed by the brilliant blue sky of morning. I disconnected the charger from my phone since it was already fully charged.It was Saturday and all I could think about was how and only how I would get my dirty clothes washed. If I were to be home, using a washing machine would have been easy and my problem would have been solved in just no time. But here in school, my hands will have to do the job. I carried out my laundry, it was a heavy load but still I have no choice than to do it by hand.I started hand-washing my clothes, squeezing each one hard and harder in the bucket. This is evey students frustration, shouldering the worries of washing by hand. Particularly in my hostel, everyone were at one angle or the other with their hands as their savior. Shade was no difference too, she was there in a corner battling the mou
