Episode 25
The car previously packed behind us overtook, and sped off. Ruth and Hannah waved me from the back seat as they drove out of site.
Where they were headed, i had no idea. I didnât know were i was going either, but i was so convinced i would have fun. The engines started and we drove off.
âYou must be starved, should we get something to eat?â Ehis asked, as he slowed down to take a left turn into a street leading to sizzlers.
I nodded in agreement.
We drove a little further, and Ehis pulled up in front of sizzlers.
âwait here let me get us something to eat.â
He alighted and walked towards sizzlers. I slumped into the seat, and started playing with my phone.
I pinged Ruth and Hannah to find out were there where headed. The replies came in fast.
Just like me, both of them had no idea were they were going. They just wanted to have fun, that is what everything was about.
I easily excused myself, thinking that i was somehow different from them. I was here because i âlovedâ Ehis. Well at least i felt strongly for him and wanted to make him happy.
I spotted him coming out of the restaurant with with two white customized paper bags in his hands. He was walking as fast as his legs could carry.
âG2g, laterâ i hurriedly texted Hannah.
âkk, make sure you use protection o, i no wan hear story later.â She replied almost immediately
I smiled to myself an tucked away the phone, as Ehis joined me in the car. He started the engine, and our journey continued.
We entered a surrounding that seemed familiar to me, then i realised we were heading to his hostel.
I was neither scared nor worried. I thought I was ready for anything that could happen.
We arrived at his hostel, the compound was just the way it was when i last visited, only a lot noisier
It seems many of the students were back from school. Music from loud speakers played at ridiculously high volume made it impossible for me to hear my own thoughts.
Some of the occupants sat outdoors gisting and playing board games. The stares and gazes i was getting as Ehis and i walked to his room made me really uncomfortable.
Some of his friends would call his name out loud and make annoying comments. I just kept a straight face and ignored. I couldnât wait to get out of sight.
We climbed up the stairs into his room. It wasnât much different from how i last saw it, though it was a little untidy.
I sat down on the side of the bed, anticipating what will happen next. Ehis handed me one of the customized paper bags.
It contained a plate of rice and ice cream in a can. This was exactly what i needed, i was famished already.
Ehis headed for the door.
â Iâm coming, i have to buy something from the chemist down the roadâ Ehis said, making his way out of the room.
â ok, but donât leave me alone here for longâ I replied, wondering what he had to buy at this time.
