Episode 4
Iād never being this satisfied in my entire life. Tobe and I were officially together, school was becoming more fun as almost all the girls envied me, wanted to be me. Hell. I was dating the son of the vice chancellor, the cute guy every girl wanted to be with. Hmmm.
Things wouldnāt get better. Heās found us a better apartment which happened to be a two bedroom flat, each room with itās own bathroom, a big sitting room, an awesome kitchen and a cool sitout. Franca had whined and complained about how we were going to be spending more going to school and coming home but I cared less. Who sigh? My boyfriend wonāt make sure I lack money. I was living in paradise just three weeks after he had asked me out, jocularly.
Some days after weād settled down in our new apartment, we were in the kitchen, making spaghetti when the big discussion came.
Franca: So what plans do you have already?
I looked up from where I was slicing Irish potatoes.
Me: Plans about what?
Franca: Tobe and yourself.
I smiled. Iāve learnt to smile each time Tobeās name was called. That was how much I had fallen in love with him.
Franca: Quit being dramatic joor.
Me: Maybe you should rephrase.
Franca: See this girl, you think Iām joking with you?
Me: I know youāre serious. But Iām yet to figure out the plans youāre talking about.
She dropped the knife she had and came closer to where I was standing.
Franca: Weāve being friends for years. You better not start hiding stuffs from me now o. Not because of Tobechukwu o.
Me: Ahn Ahn. Stop nau. Okay. Weāre very serious and I love him a lot. Heās everything Iāve dreamt of and wanted in a man.
Franca: Ewww.
I frowned at her and she smacked me playfully.
Franca: Kidding. Sex yet?
Me: A little romance here and there. Maybe heās not ready for sex.
Franca: Or maybe itās you whoās not.
I shrugged my shoulders.
Franca: Either ways, just be careful. You canāt trust men this days.
Me: I hear. But you trust Charles.
Franca: Mine is different.
Me: Same here. Mine is different.
Franca: Fine. Letās get back to the food. Iām starving.
She went back to chopping the tomatoes. I was sure I had seen something in her eyes but I couldnāt place it. I just couldnāt.
I shrugged it off and continued with what I was doing.
The dinning was quiet as we ate. I had gotten used to saying something while I ate. Franca was busy on her phone, any discussion I brought up, sheād give it a straight answer immediately and go back to whatever she was doing with her phone.
I picked up my phone and called Tobe. At least, Iāll try to engage him in a discussion while I ate.
Tobe: Queency
Me: My love. Howāre you?
Tobe; Iām alright. Just missing you a lot.
Me: I miss you too dear. Iām eating and felt I should engage you inā¦.
Tobe: Nope. You felt I should engage you right.
I laughed. Which ever way, he was right.
Tobe: Howās FranC (he now called her name like it was Francee)
Me: Sheās fine. Do I hand her the phone?
i peeked at Franca and she waved her hand in a ānoā
Tobe: But you just said you were eating? Iāll talk to her later in the evening okay?
Me: Okay my dear. Tomorrow is Friday, mind if I come?
Tobe: Sure. Iāll get the house ready for my princess.
Me: Please do.
Tobe: I love you Pamela, more than life itself.
Me: I love you Tobechukwu, my Prince in shinning armour.
