The m0an!ng suddenly paused as I heard T.J's
door open. His babe started screaming at him
"who is that prost*tute there with?"
"so this is how you behave, you must to kill
me today o." She continued talking and
ranting till I heard a heavy slap, and she
screamed painfully, I got up and made to
move outside to see for myself, but I was to
change my mind when I peeped through my
door net to see that there was nobody
watching them, I mean how can such be
happening and the other neighburs nor the
landlord did not come out? For this reason I
went back on my bed and sat down and
decided to use my ears and imagine with my
head what was going on.
When I thought it was all over as T.J shut
back his door while his babe was sobbing
outside I heard heavy raps again on the door
and this time around T.J must have rushed out
with so much annoyance because I heard a
louder screaming from his babe and I couldn't
hold it anymore as I rushed outside to see T.J
beating her up like a kid.
"bros abeg e don do, abeg" I pleaded as I
dragged her away fryo him.
"today, you must kill me o" his babe screamed
among her other rants as I dragged her away.
She was quiet bigger than me but a man got
to do what he got to do so I pulled her away
towards my room as she continued screaming.
T.J just went back into his room and jammed
it angrily. The bitter woman followed me into
my room as I tried consoling her.
At that instance I hated T.J, why will a man
beat a woman? I detest men who beat up
their women, I don't see them as men, I feel
they are bullies. My Dad have thought me
never to raise a finger on a woman. He
believes they are babies, the best way to
punish them is not by beating, it's by giving
them the 'Silent Treatment.'
Inside my room she continued sobbing as I
held her head to my chest and continued
consoling her, rubbing her eyes and tears
away. Before long my singlet was soaking
with her tears. As I consoled her the m0an!ng
from T.J's room resumed, and I knew he was
a He-goat! After some time she calmed down.
She just clinged onto me like a baby while I
continued stroking her hair.
"Women! Was this not the same lady that
pushed me away when she realised I was not
her T.J? now see as she is holding me" I
reminisce in my head.
And suddenly I remembered Ada's threat and I
shuddered like a woman experiencing orga$m.
Yes! Where is my phone? I have not even
pressed it since she came. Let me ask her the
venue of thier place. I picked up my phone
and checked time, it was already past 9pm. As
I checked time I noticed the whatsapp icon at
the right hand corner of my screen.
I pulled down the screen of the Andriod to
read the chats. 348 messages from 6 chats.
I scrolled through and noticed Ada's message
is also appearing on the screen. As I opened
her message I saw "WPX street, along WPX
lane, Gwarinpa Estate." That was all, no
further threats. What a wise babe I thought.
So I no longer have any excuse.
What if I decided not to go , what will she
do?
T.j's babe was still laying her head on my laps,
she made to sit up and spoke up
"what's the time?" she suddenly asked.
"past 9" I replied.
"let me start going" she said with a sad voice.
"you will excurt me shey" she added.
"where do you stay?" I asked
"Ushafa"
"D--n that was really far," I thought.
"it's already too late dear, doubt you can get
a bike and a drop by this time"
"what will I now do?"
"sleep over here, early morning tomorrow you
can now leave" I suggested to her, I noticed a
beam of smile on her face at my suggestion.
"so I can stay here till moro?"
"why not dear" I spoke with her gently and
continued cuddling her. I took excuse from
her to go and take my bath. By the time I was
through and back to the room she was tying
just a wrapper while laying on the bed and she
asked me to make her a warm bath which
took few minutes and she used my soap not
bothering about sponge as she leaves to take
her bath too.
While she was in the bathroom I began to
think about the events of the day and I
realised that alot have happened today, a
whole lot of uncompleted event. Starting
from Miss Lisa to Ada and finally T.J's babe.
None was a complete action. I thought of how
I was going to call my madam tomoro
morning to complain of increased headache
that will not allow me come to her house and
how I was going to locate the venue Ada sent
to me instead of going to work. It seems like
it will be adventurous but I was really scared
as I don't know what her plans were.
