EPISODE TWENTY
Will you… oh my Gaffar wants to propose to me?
Oh no!
“Will you take this gift from me”? He said while he put the package forward to me. I came out of the shock while every other person left saying “what a joker”.
I couldn’t really see what was in the package but I took it anyway and I gave him a big hug. We drove out of my hostel while we gist and I told him everything Adenike said.
He laughed over it while he said; “don’t worry, he who laughs last, last best”. For some reasons, I’ve grown to love this man and I won’t gamble spending the rest of my life with him.
We got over dinner while he drove me down to my hostel. I was about stepping out while he pulled me back and boom we were already kissing. I felt this thing in my tummy that made me wanted more but he stopped.
I rushed down immediately feeling shy while he ran after me saying; “wait up, you forgot your gift”. He gave me the gift without looking back while I rushed into my room.
My room mates weren’t in so I took much time to reminisce over what happened then I remembered he gave me a gift. I opened it and to my surprise, it was a phone, Gaffar got me a sophisticated phone.
As days went faster, things started to wax strong between Gaffar and I. I’ve grown too close to him and I now see him as my soulmate the spot kayode once shared.
Its no denying that I miss kayode, I mean he was there for me when no one was but times has changed.
I’m sure he left because he had better options. I use to feel no one could take kayode’s place in my heart but meeting Gaffar, has been a total change in life for me.
Gaffar is a very sweet, caring, understanding and romantic person. Little gestures he shows makes me love him more. derives so much pleasure in helping the needy seems doing it makes me happy.
Hmm my Gaffar I can’t believe I’m this lucky, I mean how could he have chosen me of all people out of millions of girls around him? He isn’t even afraid of showing me to the world even though I’m not in his league.
He tries his best, he buys me clothe, he feeds me, listens to my problems and helps in solving them.
I just wish I never wake up from this dream, I hope this happiness lasts forever. Although, my friends are happy for me except for Adenike who now takes me as her rival. In just a short time I’ve grown to love Gaffar.
Knock! knock!! knock!!! Was the sound that brought me outta of my thought.
“Who’s it”? I asked.
“Its your ancestors o you hear. We’ve been knocking since and your silly self can’t open the door”.
I smiled at the statement for I know it was coming from Adenike so I just got up to open the door. She’s been less rude and saucy since the day I gave her a piece of my mind which gave her the shock of her life.
Although, she has not stopped being rude she has only reduced it but I don’t give her replies all the time. “Haba Sholape, we’ve been knocking at the door since” said Omotara.
” I’m sorry girls, I was lost in thought” I replied.
“Hmm tell us what you were thinking about” Omotara said.
“Who wants to hear her wretched thoughts? I’m not interested in listening” Adenike protested
“Look Adenike, is not by force you listen, you can block your ears or better still leave the room when we’re done, we’ll call on you” Zainab said.
While Omotara waved her hands in the air signalling for me to ignore her.
“So back to you baby, what’s making you think? Zainab asked whith smile.
“Well I’ve been thinking of Gaffar and how true is love could be or am I hallucinating” I said.
Adenike burst into a thunder of laughter clapping her hands together saying; “look at this mumu, you think Gaffar loves you? You’re a fool now. You’re not his type at all if you don’t know”.
“I mean there are people like me there he didn’t choose me but you. I’m sure G.money is blind if not I wonder what he’s doing with you” she added.
“Don’t worry, when he uses and dumps you, you’ll be smart. He only date girls like me just me” she said angrily. “Haaaaaaa Adenike, why are you such a devil? Leave this girl alone. If Gaffar doesn’t love you, would you force him? Be careful o hanhan” Zainab said.
She turned to me looking guilty, she was about saying something when Omotara said “follow your heart babe. If you’re happy with him, so be it”
I felt bad about what Adenike said but I had to let go because I find happiness in Gaffar.
