Shadow Of Love

Episode 19

[]People kept on staring at us or was it me?
Vanessa, she was fair and the most beautiful among us. She was my height. Her breasts were small though but she made up for it downstairs. Her hips are massive and if I wasn’t straight, I would be ogling her behind all day.

Cynthia, just like me. Good looking with all the endorsements God could provide on the day of her creation. She was the tallest and always had a smile plastered on her face.

As we stepped out of the hall after hours of sitting on our behinds, I felt like digging into the ground as it looked like people were going to bore holes into my body with their eyes.
I was putting on a jean trouser which I marched with a jean snicker, a white tank top and a jean blazer. It was among the outfit Tobe had gotten for me. Lois had complimented on my outfit immediately I had stepped out from my room and I had seen Franca’s reaction. Now, I felt like hiding somewhere because I’m not used to all this attention.

Cynthia: So where do we have lunch?
I listened to them argue. Maybe that’s how they do it everyday. Finally, they all turned to me and sought for my opinion.

Me: Well, let’s just go to my house and make something ourselves or better still, get take aways from any fast food, then go to any of our apartments and eat. I’m dying from all this eyes.

They laughed and hugged me. I was surprised.
Cynthia: It’s like this everyday, just that you’ve not noticed.

Vanessa: How will she notice when her head is always up?

They laughed again and I began to wonder if that’s how everybody sees me.

Me: Didn’t know I walked like that.

Lois: Anyways,I think we’ll buy food at shoprite. It’s the closest. Then we’ll go to Pamela’s house and spend some time.
Everyone agreed and we left. We were at the cab stand when Tobe’s call came in

Me: Hi dear.

Tobe: Queency how’re you?

Me: I’m good dear.

Tobe: You just walked past me and I must confess, you’re really hot and sexy. You’re beautiful.

Me: All thanks to you my love.

Tobe: Those are your friends?

Me; Yes. We’re going to shoprite to buy what to eat.

Tobe: Wait for me. I’ll come and drop you girls.

Me: Thanks boo.

He hung up and I gave my friends the news.

They were excited. We didn’t wait for long before a car parked beside us. Tobe got down and I was surprised. It wasn’t his SUV or the sienna. It was a new car.

Tobe: Hey babe.

We hugged and shared a quick kiss.

Me: My love.
