Forgiveness is the highest , most beautiful form of love . It takes a strong person to say sorry and an even stronger person to forgive âŠ
*
The drive to school was a quiet one. Honestly ,you could have heard a pin dropâŠ..
I sat there in the passenger seat, wrapped up in my own thoughtsâŠ.
Demi begged me! he wants to take away my hurt!he wants a second chance with me!
should I agree to his proposal? what if he hurts me again?
I was so confused!
heaving a sigh, I glanced sideways and met his gaze for a split second; instantly my heart fluttered making my breathe come out quicklyâŠ
âYou alright?âhe asked calmly
âYes!â I replied and he nodded slowly as he reached to clasp my hand in his âŠ.
I stared at him surprised for a second and then I smiled lightly, leaning back on the seat as a familiar warmth flashed through me , easing my mind ..
*
Finally! we got to school and Demi drove through the huge gate , down the tarred road till he got to my Faculty; then he let go of my hand, parking out in front of the huge building..
âThanks!â I muttered, leaning over to the backseat to grab the nylon bag of clothes when he stopped me with his voiceâŠ
âYou want to take that to classâ
I shrugged âyes ,since i have no other option âŠ.I mean you told me yourself that you have got no lecture today right??
âAnd I also remember telling you that I will wait till you are done with lecturesâ. he drawled and I shot him a puzzled look âŠ
When did he tell me that?
âYou were probably not listeningâ. he added and I nodded slowly in agreement
I was probably not listening!!!!!
he continued âSo what time will you be done with Lectures?â
â12:00pmâ. I replied
You still got my number???â
I nodded , smiling
âGood! call me when you are done, I will come pick you wherever you areâ
âAlright!â I agreed
Opening the door , I was about to alight when he caught me by my arms and pulled me closer towards him until our lips were almost touching âŠ
The coolness of his touch turned to gentle electric currents that work their paths through my skull , making me not to think straight
âAdemiladeâ. I called softly , closing my eyes, anticipating the warmth of his lips against mine, but the kiss didnât comeâŠ..
frowning, I opened my eyes to see him staring at me and instantly, my face flushed with embarrassment
Chai! I don disgrace my self!
âerm I need erm to get going nowâ. I stuttered , slinging my ânew hand bagâ over my left shoulder as he smiled lightly
â Alright babyâ. he leaned in to peck my forehead , make sure you listen attentively to your Lecturer..
I nodded , opening the door wider as I alighted from the car; then I began walking toward the building
âand remember I care for youâ. he called after me , making me smile âŠ
âI care for you tooâ. I mumbled as I climbed up the flight of stairs to the Lecture hallâŠâŠ.
*
The Lecturer wasnât yet in class thus making the class very noisy âŠ.
Chai!so all my rush rush just dey in vain!
standing in front, my eyes wandered around the hall for Shakirat and I saw her seated in the front row close to the window , her gaze fixed on a book she was holding.
I smiled lightly as I briskly walked up to her
âheyâ. I greeted , tapping the desk lightly and she looked up at me
âBestie! Bestie! how are you?âshe greeted
âI am fine oooâ. I replied and she smiled, seizing me up and down
âYou look different!âshe remarked
âhow different!â I blushed
âlike newly diffâŠ. she paused , trailing off as her gaze dropped to my bag and her brow lifted
âLouis Vuitton! Is that a Louis Vuitton?â She asked , snatching the bag from my hand and I rolled my eyes
Which one is Louis Vuitton again? I wondered , sitting beside herâŠ.
â oh my gawd! Juliet , it is a Louis Vuittonâ. she exclaimed loudly, touching the bag like it was some gold , âoh boy! this bag is dope , the last time I priced it , it was #25,000â
â#25,000!â I repeated in disbelief
âYes oooo, it is very expensive. but how did you get it?.. I mean where did you buy it from?â
âI didnât buy it , Ademilade didâ. I corrected ;to my surprise , she sprang up to her feet like a robot and sat down again
âAdemilade bought this for you! Abeg! Abeg! gist meâ. She pleaded as I laughed loudly
This girl is really crazy!
âOya na! my ears are itching to hear the full gistâ
I smiled lightly â well! well! he bought me lot of things including the cloth and shoe I am wearing
âReally?â She retorted with disbelief written all over her face
âhum..hum..â. I nodded , ânot only that , he also bought me thisâ. I pulled down my skirt a little to show her the gold waist chain and her eyes grew wide in astonishment
âWow! this is pure gold!â
âOf course it isâ. I smiled proudly, watching her as she ran her fingers lightly through it
âhow much did he get it?â She asked , gazing up at me
â erm I donât knowâ. I lied,
Reason; I donât want her screaming her lungs out when she hears the price âŠ
She smirked âdonât lie to me Jor , tell me the truth?â
Oh right! She knows me too well
âFine! Fine! he bought it for #50,000â.i stated and Just like I predicted, she screamed loudly attracting some curious stares
I shook my head ,burying my face in my hands as I laughed
This girl no go kill person!
âHa! Juliet! so na 50,000 you carry around your waist like this âŠâŠwell! I am not surprised as Demilade is richâ
âhow rich?â I asked, curiously
âVery richâ. She replied , making an expansive gesture with her arm
âSeriously! Is he into yahoo?â I asked the question that has been bothering me for a while
She laughed loudly, clapping her hands together
âSwears! You too funny! yahoo ke! no oooo, Demilade is the only son of SAN Adeoye Adamsâ
âAdeoye Adamsâ. I muttered
The name sounded so familiar, I tilted my head a little as I tried to recall where I have heard the name beforeâŠ.
âhe is the speaker of the national house of Assemblyâ. Shakirat hinted and instantly, I remembered
âYes! Yes! Yes! that Fat man they do show talking on NTA newsâ
âYes oo, that have chop Nigeria money finishâ. Shakirat added and we both laughedâŠ
âAnd what is so funny?â a female asked from behind me and I quickly looked in the direction to meet Susannaâs angry gaze
I scoffed silently,what is she doing here?or does she have a carryover in this course as well?if yes , she must be really dumb!
âOh my! oh my! Look who we have here , the asthmatic patientâ. She jeered and some girls who were seated close by laughed
I bit my at my lower lips as a familiar sense of shame engulfed me
she smirked evilly as she continued âDo think Demi can ever love a sick fragile thing like you? no, he is only using you to whirl away timeâ
Really !Demi ! Is that the reason why she is embarrassing me?
âI will make my warning short and brief , stay away from my Demi, he is my boyfriendâ. She warned , shooting daggers at me
I smiled lightly . âNo, tell your boyfriend to stay away from me or else I might be tempted to want to own himâ
âWhat!âshe exclaimed in anger
âYes, and that is because I love himâ. I blurted out , then gasped as I realised what I have done âŠ.
Oh no! This is not gonna end well!
Instantly, i heard the surprise murmur rolling up and down the hall and even Shakirat was not left out , there was a vague look on her face
âJuliet!â She called softly as Susanna laughed bitterly
âLove! how dare you say that to my faceâ. She raised her hand and swung to strike me but Shakirat caught her hand before it could get to me .
âDo you have a death wish?Shakira growled as she twisted âthe witchâhand
âLet go of me! Let go of meâ . The witch screamed and Shakirat smirked
âJust because I allowed you scold at her doesnât mean you can hit her too. If you have problems in your relationships , then fix it with your boyfriendâ
having said that , she let go of her hands and shoved her away roughlyâŠ..
âYou b—h!â Susanna cursed ,panting heavily and was about charging towards Shakirat when the Lecturer entered the hall; immediately, the noisy hall became quiet as everyone acted like nothing happened âŠ.
âEveryone bring out a sheet of paper, we will be taking a testâ. The Lecturer loud voice rang through the class and as expected , the class became noisy once again âŠ.
I laughed quietly, what a funny class!
âbut Juliet do you really mean what you said?â Shakirat asked in whispers
âerm what did erm you say? erm the Lecturer erm said we are taking a testâ. I pretended not to understand and she scoffed silently
âI am talking about Ademilade , do you really love him?â She rephrased her question and i sighed, I couldnât avoid her question this time around
Do I really love him? I asked myself as I
listened closely to my heart for an answer but the only thing I could hear was the pounding sound it made âŠâŠ.

Ademilade

The pounding in my head increased as I drove over to the Leisure centre
I was falling ill and I knew it âŠ. well! I wasnât surprised as it was getting close to that time of the year, the particular time where I have to go through some fetish stuffs to be whole againâŠ.
I sighed in frustration as I was getting sick and tired of all of it âŠ.I mean what kind of illness couldnât be cured at once? why must i keep on going to that strange place?
And to make it all worst , my dad wasnât even helping matter , he keeps on supporting that âBimboâ he calls a wife âŠ..
Sh*t!!This is so annoying!
*
Getting to the Leisure centre, I parked out in front and on alighting, I stopped short .
Rinzy, the last person in the world I had expected to see at this particular moment , was standing right beside my car.
I quickly composed myself
âGuy! Awfar!â I greeted as he moved closer
âScrew the greetings and let us get down to the main issueâ.he snapped at me
I was a bit taken aback by his reaction but still,I maintained my cool
âWhat issue?â I asked calmly
âMy sister! stay away from herâ. he replied bluntly and from the frown on his face I could tell he meant business
but can I really do that? I donât think so
I heaved a sign, âSee Rinzy! I know what you thinking but believe me when I say I deeply care for herâŠ. I mean you even agreed to her spending the night in my roomâ
he scoffed âThat is because she was weak and needed to restâ.
âwhich still means you have a little trust in meâ
âTrust! and why would I trust you? ehen tell me , you Crazy flirtâ. he spat out , staring at me with contempt
I stared at him , surprised
Why do I have a feeling that this is more than me being friend with his sister? did i offend himâŠâŠwait a minute!
âDaniella! Is this about her?â I probed on and that was it , he flared upâŠ.
âYou bastard! you knew I was dating her right? why then did you sleep with her?â
âThat is because she is cheapâ. I answered nonchalantly, âyou should try dating someone who wouldnât have a reason to cheat on youâ
âI know!â he agreed , his voice was surprisedly calm ,âbut that doesnât mean you are innocentâ. he quickly added
Oh yeah! Whatever!!!!
âSo we are cool now right?â I spoke slowly as the throbbing pain in my head was taking a toll on meâŠ.
âNo we arenât and we can never beâ.
And with that , he glared at me ,huffing as he stormed awayâŠ..
my eyes followed him till he took a sharp bend and then I climbed up a short step to the Leisure buildingâŠ
Wo!If he likes , let him go and hit his head on the wall, I like his sister and I am going to date herâŠ
*
Entering the hall, i went over to my âusual spotâ, making signals to a chubby lady as I sat down
She came rushing to her, her two heavy âJugsâ bouncing as she ranâŠâŠ
I smiled lightly, leaning back as I admired her body shapeâŠ.
âLady gee!âI hailed as she got nearer and her smile widened
âAdeoye! she called , addressing me by my surname, wetin make I bring for you?
âRed wineâ.I simply answered and she grinned mischievously
âYou âŠsure âŠsey âŠna âŠ.only ..red wine âŠyou ..want â. She winked seductively ,using her hands to shake her boobs
I licked my lips, watching her for a while and then I looked awayâŠ.
âYesâ. I replied and she shot me a surprised look ⊠well! She should be surprised as it was my first time saying âNoâ to her âŠ.
âbut why na? shey my body don dey tire you?â she frowned
â No, I am not just in the moodâ. I answered truthfully and she hissed loudly,walking away
âDonât forget the wineâ. I called after her; then I took my phone out of my pocket, about to dial Keweâs number when I heard a familiar voice call my nameâŠâŠâŠ Dave âŠ.
I scoffed silently, what does he want?
I looked in the direction of the voice and saw him walking towards him, a strange smile playing about his face which spelt out only one thingâŠTrouble
âAwfar!â he greeted as he sat down opposite me
âWhat do you want?âi asked , ignoring his greetings and he smirked lightly
âCool man! I am not here to fight , I came to ask about the welfare of the girlâ. he said and my heart skipped a bit
âWhat girl?â I managed to ask
he chuckled softly, âAre you for real? I am talking about the asthmatic one , the one who collapsed on the walkway, the one you were going all crazy aboutâŠ.hmmmh⊠what is that her name again?âŠ. JulâŠâŠ
âShut upâ. I barked at him before he could call out the name , donât ever call that name with your flirty mouth â
I was trying so hard to hold my anger!
he was quiet for a while and then he smiled
âI am not surprised by your reaction, i was also smitten by her beautyâ
âAnd What is that supposed to mean?â
âNothing!â he answered with the same strange smile ; instantly, I bolted upright, picked up my car keys and stormed out of the hall..
I couldnât stand the bastard any longer!!!!

After Lectures , Shakirat and I walked out of the Lecture hall , holding hands as we talked about the âŠâŠimpromptu testâŠ..
âChai! that lecturer need to be flogged, how can he conduct a test without informing us ?âShe retorted , frowning as I hissed loudly
âDonât mind him , he is looking for who to give carryover â
âLike Susannaâ. she added and we both laughed
âHan Han!but that is too much â. I stated , trying so much to control my laugh
âWhat! Did I lie?â
âNo oooooooâ I answered as we climbed down the long stairs to the exit door; Then we walked out of the door and to my upmost surprise, Demiâs car was parked out frontâŠ
âIsnât that Demiâs car?â Shakirat observed , looking towards the car and I nodded slowly,my mouth opened in surprise âŠ.
Has me he been waiting out here for long?
Shakirat hissed âI bet he is here to pick up Susannaâ
âNo, he is here to pick meâ. I quickly corrected and she shot me a puzzled look
âTo pick you!â
âYes,he told me to call him when I am done with lecturesâ. I explained
âOh! So you called himâ
âNo I didnâtâŠ. I mean I was about toâ
She stared at me blankly for a moment and then she grinned mischievously
âIs there something you arenât telling me?â
âSomething like what?â
âhmmmhâŠ. you should know what I am talking aboutâ. She winked at me as I faked a frown
âGo away jor!â
âOkay ooo!i need to get going, my sister would have been aroundâ
âAh ! Sister Balikis! I completely forgot she will be coming today , my regards to herâ
âAlright bestieâ She bade and I nodded , running all the way to Demiâs carâŠâŠ
*
The window to his car was wind up so I had to knock twice on it ; instantly, the window rolled down to reveal a sleepy eyes DemiladeâŠ.
âHey babe!â he greeted , smiling weakly as I stared at him , observing
his lips was pale!his eyes dull!his face whitish!
âYou alright?â I asked, staring intently at him
âGet inâ. he instructed , ignoring my question and when I did, he started the ignition ,pulling out to the road as he drove offâŠ
During the drive , i kept on glancing at him
There was something about his facial expression, it was like he was worried about somethingâŠ
âYou alright?â I asked for the second time
âYesâ.he answered with a light smile , I am just a little bit weak
Thank goodness he didnât ignore me this time around!
âOh! Sorry! I said and turned away from him, staring out of the windowâŠ
I had lot of questions to ask him but I guess this is not the right time âŠâŠ
*
We soon go to my hostel and he parked out in front
âThanks!â I muttered
âIt is nothingâ. he assured, leaning over to the back seat to get the nylon bag of clothes and when he did, he handed it to me âŠ.
âI will call youâ
âAlright!â
Opening the door, I alighted from the car in slow motion and climbed up the short step ;turning back , I found him still staring at me
âBye!â he mouthed and I nodded , smiling lightly as I walked through the passage to my room..
The door was wide opened and I walked in to find Faith laying on the bed ,a headphone over her ear
Seeing me , she sat up in the bed, smiling
âWelcome!â She greeted
âThanksâ. I answered, making use of my nose
Why is she greeting me sef?
dropping the bag on the bed , i ambled to the mirror stand ;then pulled off my skirt to stare at the waist chain.
âWow! It is beautifulâ Faith remarked
âOf course it isâ. I agreed, staring at her through the mirror to see her staring back at me
Now it is time to pepper her!
âAdemilade bought it for meâ. I added and immediately, her gaze dropped âŠ..
Ha! Ha! Crazy b—h!
*
*
Ademilade
*

To say I was scared would be an understatement, I was more than scared of the weird feelings growing in me , the feeling changing me into a completely different person âŠ..
Obianuju! that girl, what exactly is she doing to me??
Seeing her face alone excites me and funny as it may seem, I was already missing herâŠâŠ.
The sound of my phone ringing snapped me out of my thoughts and i reached for it , checking the caller
It was my Dad
I received it , placing it on speaker
â Hello Ade!âhis baritone voice rang through
âYes sir!â I answered , stepping on the brake as I made a right turnâŠ
he continued âhow are you?how are you feeling? I hope you are okay!
âYes! Yes!Why did you call?âI asked coldly
There was a long pause and then he sighed
âYou need to be in Abuja next week , your mother has made all the necessary arrangementâŠâŠâŠ. he tried to say but I cut him off
âShe is not my Motherâ
âSeriously Ade, it is high time you start calling her mother , Canât you see the effort she is making just to prove herself to youâ
âEffort! I laughed bitterly, what effort!âŠ..oh! You mean the Fetish oneâ. I drawled making him scoff âŠ.
âYou should be grateful you have family who deeply cares about youâ. he scolded and that was it , the anger took over and I flared up
âGrateful! deeply cares! No dad , I am sick and tired of everything, I need to know what is wrong with me? why do I need to bath some stupid concoction whenever I am sick?âWhy?â I screamed into the phone
he sighed âI understand how you feel son and I promise to answer all of your questions when you are homeâŠ.
Oh yeah! The normal lines he use in avoiding my questions
he continued âMusa will come pick you up next week , please donât try doing anything stupidâ. he pleaded and without waiting for my response, he banged the callâŠ.::
Ahh!â I screamed , banging my fist on the steering wheelâŠ
My head was hurting , my hands shaking that I had to pull out of the road to calm my panic and when I did, I drove home , speedingâŠ.
*
At last! after a rough drive, I got home. I drove into the compound and parked out roughly in front of my apartment; then I alighted from the car to see Susanna seated on the floor in the balcony , her chin propped up with her hands âŠ
âHey!â I simply greeted , walking past her to the door and she scoffed , jumping up to her feet
âWhere are you coming from?â
I glanced over my shoulders to be sure i was the one she was asking that and yes , it was me ..
tsk..tsk.. tsk⊠she is insane!
Ignoring her , I unlocked the door, pushing it opened as I walked into the sitting room
âDemi oooo! I am talking to you , where are you coming from?â She repeated , vibrating as she followed behind meâŠ
I hissed silently â is she blind to see I am in no mood for arguments?â
She continued. â I waited endlessly for you this morning but you didnât show up; I was worried sick about you thinking you were sick, only for me to get to school and be told you dropped off that ⊠stupid asthmatic patientâ
I stopped in my track ,turning to face her
âStupid! did you just call her stupid?
âYes, and I will call her more namesâ.she replied, shooting daggers at me
âDonât push it Susannaâ. I warned; then began to walk towards my roomâŠ
âNooooooo! Demi!come back here , I am not done talkingâ. She yelled like a crazy woman and I scoffed
âGo talk to yourselfâ
*
Pushing the door opened, I walked into the scattered room and collapsed on the bed ;
I was too weak and tired to do a thing!
I kicked off my shoes , about to lay down when my gaze was caught by an object laying on the tiled floor âŠâŠ.An inhaler , Obianujuâs inhalerâŠ.
It must have fallen out of her bag!
quickly, I got off the bed to pick it up; then I hurriedly wore a palm slippers and rushed out of the room to the sitting room where I met Susanna watching the television âŠâŠ
Seeing me , she paused whatever she was watching to stare at me curiously
âWhere are you going?â
âOut!donât wait for me , I wonât be sleeping home todayâ. I lied , I just wanted her get the f**k out of my house âŠ.
âHan! Han! Why na?â She queried
âThat is because I need to take care of somethingâ
âhmmmhâŠ. okay ooooo. but what about the money you promised me?
âIn will transfer it to youâ. I replied and her eyes lit up
âand make sure you lock the door when leavingâ
And with that , I walked out of house slamming the door shut ; I opened the car door, climbed into it and on starting the ignition, I zoomed off !!!
The inhaler is like her life and I needed to take it to her , but deep down in my heart , I knew it was an excuse to see her pretty face âŠâŠ..
*
Getting to her hostel , I parked out in front and alighted from the car .
I climbed up the short stairs to the passage; then I walked through it to the last room, knocking on the door twice ..
âI am coming!âa familiar voice answered and I smiled knowing it was obianuju.
What followed next were quick footsteps and in a split second, the door opened to reveal
âmy pretty girlâ
She was wearing a singlet crop top on a black leggings and believe me when I say she looked so hotâŠ
âDemi!â She called out in surprise, what are you doing here??â
âI erm came to erm drop thisâ. I stuttered,bringing the inhaler out of my pocket
I felt nervous all of a sudden without even knowing why!
her eyes widened in shock.â Oh my gawd! my inhaler! It must have fallen out of my bag , thank you so so muchâ
âIt is nothingâ.I assured
smiling lightly, she opened the door wider and I walked into small cosy room ..
âwhat can I offer you?â She asked
â a seat!â I answered and her face flushed with embarrassment
âoops! Pardon my manners! Please do have a seatâ. She chuckled nervously, pointing to the bed and when I did , she sat down beside me âŠ..
âSo now that you are seated, what can I offer you now?â She repeated,grinning from ear to ear..
âYour heart!â. I said softly , staring intently at her and she froze on the spotâŠâŠ.
âMyâŠ.heart⊠I canât .. I canât give you thatâ
âWhy?âAre you scared I would hurt you? Please donât be, I promise not to hurt you, i promise not to break youâ. I pleaded desperately as she stared at me , confused
âI am afraid of fallingâ. she told me , searching through my gaze âŠ.
âThen I will catch youâ. I assured as I pulled her close , hugging her ..
âSusanna! who is she to you? she whispered
âNo oneâ
âReally! then who am I to you?â
âMy girlfriendâ. I answered and she hugged me back , burying her face in my chest ; And even without seeing her face, I knew she was smilingâŠ.
