Episode 45

That Saturday night was like hell, I could not sleep all through..

The previous scene kept displaying on my head, my greatest fear now is someone else finding out that melvin kissed me, chai am as good as deadā€¦ā€¦

After my conversation with mama femi, my mind was a bit at rest, atleast she has been the only one who truly understands meā€¦..

I made sure I didnā€™t have to see melvin all through the party, how can I even see him, tola has been the bridge, she was all over him like a flyā€¦ Only if she knows melvin has given me those lips she longed forā€¦. I smiled like a winnerā€¦ Come whatā€™s my joy self. . melvin lips?, ah God melvin still has a week before leaving this house and he is gonna be around all through the week, how do I cope with this Shameā€¦ I seriously just have to be myself ā€¦..

The following day was a Sunday, it happened to be an hectic one, there was alot of work to do, I was too busy to think of anything ā€¦

Thank God I didnā€™t have to see melvin all through the day, not even tola or precious had access to his room that day, except nkechi who served him his three square meal in his roomā€¦.

I wonder why he has refused to show his faceā€¦.

Or his he regretting?


We all retired to bed all stressed up that nightā€¦ I slept like a baby putting all my thoughts and problem behindā€¦ā€¦

Keji!! Keji!!

Me: Still sleepyā€¦ Ehn ehnā€¦ I managed to open my eyes, it was nkechiā€¦.

Nkechi: Which kind yeye sleep you dey sleepā€¦. Morning don reach nah. ..

Me: Flew up from the bedā€¦. Yee! ā€¦ I quickly ran to the bathroom, shower, put on my uniform and ran out of the room, I know trouble is serzly waiting for meā€¦.

Tola: Donā€™t tell me you are just waking upā€¦.

Yee!! I don die today.

She was with melvinā€¦. I guess melvin has finally decide to come out of his hide and seek gameā€¦.

I made sure I didnā€™t have to make eye contact with him.. I really canā€™t help the shameā€¦

Me: Stammeringā€¦ Go-od mor-ning ma.

Tola: And what is good about the morningā€¦ So this is how you do wake up late rightā€¦.

Melvin: Tola calm down okay, there must have been a reason for. ā€¦ā€¦

She was weak yesrernite so I told her to rest well before waking up. .. Mama femi cuts in from no whereā€¦.

Ah thank God, atleast this witch wonā€™t have to swallow me alive..

Melvin: Keji is that trueā€¦. Moving closer to me and looking all worriedā€¦

Me: Shifted back. .. Am okay sirā€¦.

I hurriedly left their presence while mama femi followed meā€¦..

Me: Mama if not for you today ehnā€¦

Mama femi: Didnā€™t you see melvin reaction when I said you were weak yesternite..

Me: I donā€™t careā€¦ I said challantly putting on my apron.

Mama femi drew me back suddenlyā€¦.

Mama femi: What do you mean by you donā€™t care, and what was that attitude forā€¦. She asked angrily.

Me: What attitudeā€¦ I asked out of fear..

I was so scaredā€¦. Mama femi harly gets angry.. And I donā€™t want to get on her bad sideā€¦ Neverā€¦

Mama femi: The attitude you displayed in the sitting room, what ever happened between you both is your personal problem, your boss is your boss, so avoiding him is like disrespecting himā€¦ What gut on earth do you have to walk out on himā€¦ Answer me, she shouted angrilyā€¦

Now this is getting out of hands..

Me: Cus I felt that was the best I could do, so as to avoid any means of trouble, am scared of any one knowing about this, and most of all, avoiding melvin for now will he the bestā€¦ I said. Mama femi: That is still not enough reason to avoid himā€¦ It is wrong .. She said and walked out angrilyā€¦.. Leaving me close to tearsā€¦.

What should I do?, everything is just so complicated right now, I know i should be happy that melvin noticed me, at least that was all all wanted, he even kissed meā€¦ Am just confusedā€¦.. Even if melvin is for real, we shouldnā€™t be doing thisā€¦

What will become of me if they find out. . ehhh nah die be that.

But still I cant keep avoiding melvinā€¦

I we still lost in my thought when I heard a car left the compoundā€¦ I just hope it is precious and tola, atleast the house will be in peaceā€¦ I sighed and continue with the dishes, then Nkechi barged in suddenly..

Me: Shockedā€¦ Yo scared meā€¦.

Nkechi: No vex jaeā€¦

Me: No wahala.. Precious don commot abiā€¦ I asked her..

Nkechi: Yes, nah she and tola commot, he be like say dey get outingā€¦.
