"Babe,I blocked him,he still insisted on trying again.You know we've been dating for a year and we've broken up six times but I think I still love him",Biola said as she rushed into my apartment.
I was short of words as I recalled what has been happening in the so-called relationship.
***************************
I remember when we went to Abeokuta for a wedding on a Friday.We were there till Saturday,so we decided to visit her boyfriend in Ibogun since it's close.When we got to his apartment,we met some girl in clothes Biola confirmed to be the cloth she bought for him for valentine.I expected her to confront him,even if he wants to give his clothes out,it shouldn't be the one his girlfriend gave him for valentine. Surprisingly,my friend said "She might be his neighbor,she liked it on him and he gave her.It's no big deal".The girl left unwillingly,the guy even made it clear he wanted us to leave soon.Fiam,my friend went to cook Jollof rice,wife material hundred yards.We sha watched Netflix for hours.It's a room and parlour apartment,so he went to the room to take something. I quickly told my friend "It's 3pm,e don do,make we dey commot abeg,time don go" and she said,"No problem,let me go kiss him goodbye".After ten minutes my friend came out in his hoodie, smiling like mumu.
"Biola Wetin sup,where your cloth? I thought you wanted to kiss him goodbye"
"Babe I'm sorry I need to spend time with my baby,see you Wednesday".Naso I open mouth reach Abeokuta that evening.
One time,he posted a picture of him grabbing a girl's boobs on Snapchat.When my friend confronted him,he apologized and said it was a mistake.She even told me she saw a message of him asking for a girl's nudes,he said it was prank.The second time he broke up with her,he said she complains about everything,said she's too jealous and insecure.My friend nearly died,she said she couldn't live without him.When I advised her to let him go,she said I wasn't happy for her,that I wanted to turn her to 'da bi mo se da'-how Yoruba account for dark human instinct to seek comfort in misfortune.
There was this house party we went too.He played truth or dare and did all sorts of things in front of Biola ooo. My friend said it's understandable, that he didn't have a choice.When he left Biola to dance with his so-called bestie at his birthday nko.Their love is beautiful indeed.
