I Love My Life

Episode 3

I got to the lecture hall just as the lecturer was going in. We settled down and the lecture began. It was one of those boring lectures that makes you nod your head and battle with sleep. The lecturer was an old man with grey hairs and beards and his voice was more of a whisper. But wetin man go do? We endured this suffering for the next three hours, which left most of my course mates dozing on their
seats. If truth be told, no one grabbed something from the old professor who has refused to retire from his teaching job. We inhaled a breath of freedom as the staunch man adjusted his glasses and left the hall saying, “You have my quiz next weekend.”

Their was an air of excitement in the auditorium.

Some were making phone calls, others were playing music; either the latest or trying to show their versatility in the music world while the rest were either hanging out with their friends or in a corner with their bae. I was too tired to do any of
this, so I plugged in my earphone and tuned on “#King_Kunta” by #Kendrick_Lamar, setting it on repeat. Kendrick Lamar be my best for music ooo
but I always respect #2pac_Shakur. As I was still swimming in the ecstasy of the music, I felt someone touch my shoulder. It was Kelly, a friend of mine but not part of my cartel.

My cartel were those who were like me. Lemme introduce myself a little…. I was voted the most handsome in my department and am tall and slim too, fair skinned and curly hairs.

The best basketball player and a guru in table tennis. I ve won 3 trophies for my department and am athletic too. So I was
actually the ladies guy. So my cartel were made up of two handsome guys and a brainy girl who happened to have a crush on me and we topped the department too.

Me: Eh heh, what is it now? Kelly sat beside me and removed one of the ear piece.

Kelly: my man ke way? This one you siddon like this, person die??

Me: Nothing spoil ooo, I just wan relax.
Kelly: That’s cool. I heard Eve is back
Me: Good for her
He looked at me, astonished.
Kelly: why re you this way? You are supposed to be happy.
Me: Oh! I should start dancing because she’s back. Oya, start going! I mean start going before I get angry. Kelly stood up and stretched his starched shirt with his hand, smiling.

Kelly: My guy whatever that is wrong with you, just know that your girl don hammer…. She don see money… Excess one.
5mins Later
Kosi came to my seat and sat beside me,wrapping her hands around me, her face close to mine. She was the brainy girl in my cartel. She was well endowed with front and back and was extremely beautiful like Rita Dominic. But she wasn’t the runs girl. She was proud of who she was and always stuck to her man but she didn’t have any yet. She was waiting for me to run around and still come to her. On weekends, she will come to my lodge, cook and wash my clothes for me and then spend the rest of the weekend with me but the surprising thing was that we saw ourselves as siblings… We slept together and wake together without any negative feelings. Most we could do was to cuddle ourselves when there is cold.

Kosi: I saw you shouting at Kelly, what’s wrong?
Me: Nothing serious sweetheart. I wasn’t just in the mood.
Kosi: Are you sure? You know I don’t want anything to happen to this your fine face.
Me: I know you care so much. Thanks a lot.I love you
Kosi: I love you too
She rested her head on my shoulder while I inserted one of the earphone in her ear.She smiled when she heard the song__#Locked_Away. After sometime, she turned to me…
Kosi: I want to kiss you………………………
