So, This is Love? Episode 10 – Judith Onyoyibo
When I got to the house, I dived into my bed.
“My sweet bed. I missed you”.
I romanticized my bed before falling asleep. I slept for over 5hrs.
I woke up famished. I walked into my kitchen and grabbed two packs of indomitable noodles from my kitchen’s cabinet.
I broke the noodles into tiny bits and poured them into a small pot and added water to it. I allowed it cook for 10mins. I was too lazy to either boil or fry an egg, so I ate the noodles like that.
After eating, I laid on my bed again.
“What next?”. I asked myself.
I remembered that Stephen got me a phone. I reached out for the phone. It was right beside my bed.
“Nice phone”. I said in admiration.
Since I was yet to retrieve my line, I decided to make do with my old sim for the meantime.
Few hours later, I got a call from an unknown number.
“Who’s this one again”. I said before taking the call.
“Hello o”. I said calmly.
The caller refused to say anything.
“Hello”. I reiterated.
“Janet”. The caller said.
I froze at the sound of his voice. That voice has been embedded deeply into heart.
“Mike??”. I asked in disbelief.
“How have you been?”. He asked.
“Have you been trying my line all these while?”. I asked.
“No! This is the first time I’m calling you in years. Why did you ask?”.
“Nothing. So why are you calling me?”. I queried.
“Can’t I call you again”. He said laughing.
I felt a stung of butterfly in my stomach.
“Please don’t do this to me. Don’t make me crumble”. I said in my mind.
“I have missed you”. Mike said.
“What about your wife?”. I asked.
“Let’s meet. Pick a date”. He said prevaricating my question.
“Why should I meet up with you?”. I asked.
“Come on Jay baby. We are not enemies”. He said seductively or maybe it’s just my mind playing tricks on me.
“Will you be chanced tomorrow?”. I asked.
“Sure. I will send a driver to pick you up”. He said smiling.
“Do you know where I live?”. I asked.
“Oops! I will just send you some money instead”. He said.
“Suit yourself”. I said.
“I can’t wait to see you”.
“I have to go now”. I said before ending the call.
5mins later, I received an alert of #100k from him. He sent a text afterwards. It read;
“Hunters Hotel at Isolo. See you by 5pm tomorrow. Loves”.
Through out that day, I kept reading and rereading the message. I was in a high spirit the whole day that I didn’t take any smokes.
“Who needs smokes when Mike is there?”.
“Mike still think about me. He hasn’t forgotten about my existence. He wants to meet with me. Meeee!!! Gosh!”.
Happiness almost finished me the whole day.
The next day, I booked an uber who drove me to the hotel.
Mike joined me shortly. He booked a room and we both went in.
He didn’t even wait for me to settle down before he started making advances at me. All my efforts to tame him proved abortive.
“Are you séx starved?”. I asked angrily.
“I miss you. I can’t resist you”. He said whilst removing my blouse. He successfully offed my blouse and he started unhooking my bra.
I was already shaking.
“What about your wife?”. I questioned.
“Leave that boring soul out of this. I regret leaving you for her”. He said.
He planted a kiss into my mouth.
“I miss you so much”. He said and continued with his romance.
“I miss you too. No! I almost died from missing you”. I said with his lips still intertwined with mine.
We got intimate. It was indeed mind-blowing.
“You’ve gotten better. I couldn’t even keep up with your pace”. He said and drew a deep breath.
I smiled sheepishly. “If only he knows what I do for a living”. I thought within.
He drew me to himself. He used his hands to fondle my whole body affectionately.
“I missed this”. I said.
“Same here baby”. He said and planted another kiss in my mouth.
We got intimate for the second time after which, we both fell asleep till 3:10am.
I was awakened by his ringing tone. His wife kept calling him nonstop. I took his phone and put it in do not disturb. Mike was completely wasted. He was fast asleep.
I looked at him and smiled mischievously.
I removed the duvet from his body and started working on him with my hands. He opened his eyes.
“You are going to kîll me Janet, you naughty girl”. He said with his two hands under his head.
“Do you want me stop?”. I asked seductively.
“Not at all”. He said whilst gasping.
Not too long, he reached climax.
“You are the best at what you do”. He said appreciatively.
Cuddling, we both fell asleep.
I woke up and saw that Mike had already left.
“How could he leave just like that? We didn’t even have a meaningful conversation”.
I reached out for my phone to call him and noticed he already sent me a heavy alert and also a text on why he had to leave early.
I was a bit sad but the alert helped in calming my nerves.
I got dressed and left the hotel.
When I got down from the Uber, the person I saw first was Stephen.
“Ese”. He shouted while walking towards where me.
“What are you doing here? Are you stalking me”. I asked angrily.
“Stalk you for what? I came to see my Uncle. That’s his house”. He said pointing to a house that’s opposite my compound.
“I know you helped me and I’m grateful but I’m not comfortable around you. Please when next you bump into me, pretend like we’ve never met”. I said angrily.
“What did I do to you?”. He asked calmly.
“You didn’t do anything to me. Just mind your business. For your information, I’m not a decent girl neither am I a wife material, so perish any thought you have in your mind. I don’t have plans of marrying a pastor “. I said and walked out on him.
He was dumbfounded.
To be continued.
