• Poisonous Lips   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   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

  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

• Poisonous Lips   Settlement

  Getting home, Shade was no where to be found. I cared less about where she had gone or, if at all she was feeling better. I fell flat on my bed with my heart heavy as a rock."All men are scam. Why lie to me from the beginning, making me think I have seen a diamond and the stupid me craved for it. Oh God! He made me seem like a fool. Now I became a laughing stock." – I continued to grumble without a slight of knowledge I was talking aloud.Multiple times, I will unconsciously make a sharp sibilant sound, an evidence of my anger like the spit and hiss of a cornered cat. I had even forgotten the fact that I have not eaten as my brows furrows indicating my irate.Shade walked in with all happiness seated on her face as her white teeth continued to reveal itself like traffic light. I buried my anger like nothing happened as I smile back in return acting to be anxious about what changed her mood.

• Poisonous Lips   First Kiss

  "Of course you do. You look so wonderfully horrendous that you became a center of attraction for everyone. Don't you see how everyone is admiring your looks and cracked lips bending like a wounded pig?" - I asked with a little smile that forced it way out of my cheek."Yens, those is me. Everyones says I was fine, you knows? Handsomest, winky winky cuted. Oya gaves me your call, let me called you every now." - said him confidently as he stretched out his hand, handing his phone to me. I moved backward with a hideous look that checked him out from head to toe. Even if I wanted to be nice, I obviously lost it as I opened my mouth and chastised him for the sin he do not know he committed."See ehn, I no go lie you, u no get sense." [ I won't lie to you, you are an idiot]He looked surprised but I didn't care. All I just wanted to do was to lash out on him."You no get sense na! [You

• Poisonous Lips   Intimidation

  The faint darkness has chameleon to light as the day shines brightly like Swarovski crystal. The sonorous voices of the birds kept penetrating my ears as I reluctantly rose from bed with some throbbing sensation."Ahn! This headache!" - I bellowed in painsShade was still lain in bed but I could tell she was awake."Is she thinking about what happened? " – I blurted"You know I can hear you right?"– her whimpering effect changed her euphonious sound to a gruff voice, and her brows were drawned together in a frown.I didn't let her face get to me. I did not send her to get her heart broken. I cannot be all moody all because of her. Without looking at her I pulled my bag from the closet and brought out a tablet for my headache.Shade kept tossing and turning over and over again with excessive sighing. I knew she was
