The Devil who Loved me - by Owolabi Adenola (Davidflo) Episode 6

Episode 6


I slept in Abayomi’s house. While Toun and I slept in his bedroom, Abayomi slept in his sitting room. He had promised to get someone who would clean up my room . I wondered where Timi was going to sleep. Maybe Annie’s house…most likely Annie’s house.
Thinking of Timi was coming at a regular. All I wanted was for him to tell me why he broke up with me. I wanted to know if it was because of another girl. i wondered if he had heard something or if I had done something. My thoughts switched to Jafar and the uneasy feeling in my gut lingered. I know Abayomi was going to call Uche anytime from now to accept his proposal.
At school every male was a suspected faeces criminal. I somehow couldn’t imagine a girl squatting in my bed to poo on it. We had free periods after the first lecture, Toun had gone to get us cups of Ice-cream when I got a call
Caller: hello, it’s me Timi
Me: yes?
Timi: was wondering if we could have lunch?
Me: for what?
Timi: just to catch up on old times, it’s been a while we spoke
Me: not interested, I will be very busy.
Timi: why are you being difficult, in the past your stubbornness used to be sexy, now you are just plain mean.
Me: I am mean? Pot calling kettle black
Timi: it’s just lunch dear
Me: I am hanging up if you have nothing else to say
Timi: I have something to say, I miss your plantain and egg.
Me: You are being foolish right now
I hung up
I got a text some minutes later from Abayomi . “I called Uche, I have accepted the deal” , I scrolled down to the end of the message, where the time and date was usually displayed. That was when it hit me, Timi wanted to have lunch with me on his birthday.
Toun: call him and agree for lunch
Me: no I can’t, I am too proud
Toun: so what will you do?
I picked up my phone and sent him a message. “Happy birthday, wishing you the best”
At noon, Toun and I went to the sports cafeteria to eat lunch, their rice and dodo was breathtaking, i still felt guilty that I turned Timi down. Then I saw him walk in with Annie. She was looking as beautiful as ever, wide hips and all.
Toun looked at me with a kind of motherly pity. I tried to ignore them but I had to admit they looked good together. He didn’t see me thankfully, but I think Annie did.
I felt good, very good that he had asked me for lunch before deciding to bring Annie. Or had she rejected before then he asked me before she later accepted?
*******
Acho was inside my house when I got home, I hadn’t intended to stay for long, I just wanted to pick some clothes and move back to Toun’s place, much to Abayomi’s chagrin. I hadnt remembered to collected my spare key from the dude. He was looking good though.
Acho: babe, howfar?
Me: do you know I can arrest you for breaking and entering?
Acho: no breaking na…just entering..
He was smiling
Me: what do you want? Where is my key?
Acho: I still believe we can work, I am sorry for the other night, blame it on the alcohol
Me: no problem, drop the key and leave
Acho: listen to me first na…
He approached me with a confident swag, I walked backwards till I was pressed against a wall.
Me: Acho, what is all this rubbish?
Acho: I miss you, see I am so hard…
He took my hand and placed it on the protruded part of his jean, he was hard. I attempted to slap him but he grabbed my other hand. His mouth forcefully claimed mine. He separated his lips to stick his tongue inside. I pushed him but he was so strong.
Acho: oh..u taste so good…
His chest was pressed against my breast, I was having difficulty breathing…that was when they came in. They were three in number, dressed in all blue, Acho didn’t have the opportunity to turn back before one of them stuck him on the neck. The other two had baseball sticks which they applied on his left hand. Surprisingly, they only hit his left hand and left knee. He kept begging but they stop
Acho: Tana I am sorry, please help me…
It was too much for me too, I had to beg them to stop. I was scared that I was going to be next though. They stopped immediately, the one who struck Acho first spoke.
Guy: how him take enter?
Me: he has my key?
Guy: na your boyfriend?
Me: my ex
The guy dipped his hand into Acho’s pocket and gave me all the keys he found in there. I carefully selected mine. The two other guys lifted Acho up and took him out. My neighbors were peeping from their windows as they bundled Acho into the boot of their Volvo.
Me: please let him go…please..( shouting)
The guy who seemed like their leader just smiled and drove off.
I decided I was not returning to my apartment anymore, I picked up my belongings to Toun’s place. She was waiting for me infront.
Toun: I am so sorry, hope you weren’t hurt?
Me: nooo, but I was scared.
Toun: who are those guys?
Me: how would I know, they don’t stay around. I even thought they were his people until they attacked him, I almost peed on myself.
Toun: I called Abayomi immediately you called me, he is on his way here.
Me: thanks.
Toun: you go chop indomie?
Me: I am not hungry
I was worried about Acho, I wondered if I should alert the police..then I got a message.
“ he wouldn’t be a nuisance anymore….Jafar”
I should have felt Jafar was an angel who rescued me, but it didn’t feel so…it felt like the devil just texted me.
After gossiping for a long time, Toun’s mood changed.
Toun: Tee, I want to tell you something that has been eating me up.
Me: tell me
Toun: it’s about my parents
Me: what is the problem?
Toun: my dad has left the house, there is this paralegal that has been causing issues between him and my mum.
Me: I am so sorry, your mum must be devastated
Toun: the painful part is that this girl is the same age as my elder brother.
Me: men can Bleep up ehn..with all due respect
Toun: I have stopped accepting his calls and all.
Me: how is your mum taking it?
Toun: she is handling it well, she has told him not to return to the house.
Me: see judge o..hehehehe..
The look Toun gave me could kill.
Me: sorry now..he will have his fill and leave her
Toun: he started sending money anyhow to my account?
Me: you no touch that one too?
Toun: Abayomi is with my ATM, he uses it for the campaign..
I remembered Kofo and I felt very guilty, I would step-down as his assistant if he doesn’t leave that girl I said to myself.
Me: I am so sorry, I would have suggested we go and take Gordon spark and asun but I am still jittery from the earlier episode.
Toun: its alright, I have a bottle of Pink-Lady in the fridge, lets drink
Some three hours later..we were very drunk
Me: I think of Timi all the time
Toun: oh..
Me: I don’t think I ever healed, seeing him with Annie was an eye opener
Toun: I want to stop having sex with Abayomi
Me: why?
Toun: I don’t know why, but for a while now I have not been enjoying it.
Me: why not tell him?
Toun: you know how guys feel after you tell them such, they feel it’s about them.
Me: it isn’t about them?
Toun: I think this is about me
Me: how?
Toun: I don’t know, but I don’t even think of sex unlike before, I was a freak babe.
Me: Abayomi will understand, I think you guys can fix it
Toun: but I like kissing him still, I prefer when he is drunk and wants a quickie, then I just close my eyes till he cums. Ever felt like that?
Me: yes, like after fucking Acho for a month, his big dick didn’t help.
Toun: Ah Ahn…too much info…
Me: I am a truthful person..
The evil that alcohol caused that day..
Toun: I have a confession.
Me: what?
Toun: I have always wanted to do something
Me: what?
Toun kissed me.
It started with a series of pecks, my lips were shut. I was surprised…I was shocked. She didn’t stop..her sugary lips tasted nice, I didn’t want to close my eyes, I knew if I did..i would indulge her
I close my eyes..
I felt her tongue on mine, I tasted it, soft and warm…searching and probing…she grabbed my neck and pulled me closer..pulled my top to reveal my jiggling breasts. Her mouth was on my Tips…I grabbed her ass…soft as freshly baked bread..she grabbed mine..in no time we were Unclad, her fingers found my femalecore, I embraced her while she slid in and out of me..then she spread my legs, and worked with her tongue..teasing and tweaking…I pushed her head down…her tongue sliced my V till my teeth started chattering..she came up and kissed me..i tasted me …I tasted her…we came..
As we lay beside each-other that night, I wondered if what was on my mind was the same as what was on her mind..
We had both cheated on Abayomi.
*******
I can’t remember who woke up first, but I knew we started at each other for a while just lying there..
Toun: do you feel bad?
Me: yepz
Toun: because you just had sex with a girl or because of Abayomi?
Me: because of Abayomi and you. I should be a good friend and settle your sex issue, instead I had sex with you.
Toun: this had nothing to do with Abayomi and myself
Me: what about us, how would we be after this?
Toun: it’s a one-time thing, we will laugh about it very soon. Have you been with a girl before?
Me: nope, you?
Toun: what do you think?
Me: I dunno o..
She laughed, picked up her phone and called her boyfriend. He was supposed to come but he hadn’t.
In class the next day, I tried putting my life in a perspective, with the drama that was unfolding in my life, I knew if I didn’t take my studies seriously I was going to seriously fail , I didn’t have an idea how I would turn it all around…but I had to. Toun was beside me, dubbing an assignment from a friend, I was waiting so I would dub from her. I looked at her body, long and lean; she seemed to have moved on from what happened, I decided to push it off my mind.
Toun tapped me with her pen, calling my attention to somebody walking towards us with rage in her eyes. It was Yewande, she came with a friend.
Yewande: why did you send your people to attack my boyfriend. I know you cannot imagine that he could have left you for someone like me, but you took it too far!
I looked at Toun, who was trying as much as possible to ignore us and focus on the assignment
Yewande: his hand and leg are broken, I swear! You will pay
I ignored her as it was becoming embarrassing; the aproko students in my class were already staring.
Yewande: bribing him with money to stay with you was not enough, you had to attack him…you have lost o….
Luckily a lecturer came in and she had to leave, promising me hell later. At this point I was getting tired, I decided I was going to call Abayomi to tell Jafar and his goons to take a chill, or maybe I would need to call Jafar myself. I stepped outside to call Jafar.
Me: hello
Jafar: Hey
It sounded like he was whispering, but it was still audible
Me: about Acho yesterday I think your boys took it too far
Jafar: oh
Me: I don’t want that kind of thing associated with me
Jafar: what thing are we talking about here?
Me: attacks and beatings
Jafar: oh
Me: do I have your word that it would stop?
Jafar: what does my word mean to you?
Me: it would assure me and I would hold on to it
Jafar: meet me in my house by 7pm..
Me: wha…
He hung up.
That guy lacks manners, and he is sick if he thinks I would come to his house, I said to myself.
We were sitted when the vice-chancellor came into the conference room. Earlier, Abayomi had called me that we had been summoned by the vice-chancellor for an emergency meeting. National and his deputy were to our left. Prof Akinbiyi, the VC was a man of medium build, his grey hair was bushy. I wondered if most professors generally scattered their hair to look mofasa.
VC: how are u doing?
We answered that we were fine. He didn’t beat around the bush, he wanted to inform us that the school management would support any candidate that won , that we would be partners and if we had any grandiose plans that might conflict with the vision of the school if elected. After the meeting I had the opportunity to explain to Abayomi what had happened earlier when Yewande came to my lecture hall. I told him I wasn’t comfortable with Jafar’s kind of security.
Abayomi: why don’t you want to go?
Me: why should I go?
Abayomi: are you scared?
Me: nope, but I shouldn’t be visiting a guy by 7pm in his house na
Abayomi: I want you to go, I want you to ask him about National’s involvement in the Ijebu-igbo fracas.
Me: why don’t you ask him yourself?
Abayomi: I would be going to Ikenne to campaign to the medical students, Timi and myself.
Me: how is Timi?
Abayomi: he is fine, he sends his regards
Me: tell him I send mine too
Abayomi: you should call the guy sometimes, he misses you.
Me: why should he miss me, he has Annie
Abayomi: does he?
Me: what do you mean?
Abayomi: I think you both should sit down and talk, that’s all..
Me: I hear…how is kofo?
Abayomi: we are over
Me: because I am going to quit if you don’t stop ramming her
Abayomi looked at me and winked.
Toun and I were watching Prison Break in her room when we heard a knock on the door, it was 7pm and I thought Abayomi had changed his mind about going to Ikenne. Uche was by the door.
Uche: hope you are ready?
Me: Jafar sent you?
Uche: yes, I am waiting outside.
Toun: Tee, should I come with you?
Me: nope don’t worry, lemme just change my clothe
Twenty minutes later, Uche drove me to Jafar’s crib.
