THE CIRCLE (EPISODE 4- TRIANGLE)

Monday
Project Lab day.
I leave for the Lab by 9am.

1pm.
I am done at the Lab.
Chinonye Onah is done too so we leave together.

We meet Igwilo Chinedu close to the school's gate.  He's having a chat with Kingsley Ugwu.
We exchange greetings briefly although we are occasionally interrupted by passers-by saying hello to Igwilo especially.
Igwilo is a popular figure.
A shuttle is loading so we hurry up and join in.

I stop at Ojukwu hall to see Blessing. Thankfully she is in.
I've missed Bae.

Blessing is heating up some food. I came at the right time.

"Bae will you eat yam porridge?" Blessing asks.

I no get option na

Abi?

We eat.
I sleep off .

4pm.

In my dreams, someone is tapping me by the shoulders. I open my eyes. Its Blessing.

Lets go to class. Nelo said Madam is around.
"Lets go to class", she says again.Are you with your MCB Note?
"Yes", I reply.
I'm sleepy.

6:30pm
Lecture is over.
I tell Blessing to accompany me to Sweet Mummy.
Bae wants to go there too.

I buy items for okro soup. I have stwew items.
Blessing wants to make Ofe-Akwu

My phone rings
Its my darling sis.
"How are you, baby?"

I switch to my last born voice.
"Ayamfain". You haff nor call your baby since I say and strech my lips forward to allow the baby attitude sink in.

"Oya sorry" How was the wedding you told me about?

It was fine o. I met Crush.

Sis laughs.. "You did not meet Ofeshe?

Noo o. Me Adon like Ofeshe.

Ok na. I say make I know how you dey. Oya take care o?

Oo.. Bye bye

Tuesday
Its 8am
Haematology class is holding, Basil (Swash) posts on whatsapp.

I dial Ugochi.
Uh Uh, haemat is holding.

I know. Just saw it on whatsapp. Are you going?

Yes.

I'll come to your room by 8:35. Be ready oo.

Oooo

She hangs up.

8:30am
My phone rings. Its Ugochi.
Jor Jor, lets go o. Eluke is already in class.

Haba. When?

She just entered. Be coming out. We'll meet at Manuwa bus stop. Do fast o.

I'm trying to draw my eyebrows.
Oh God!

Ugochi is waiting.
She gives me 3 hot flashes; the kind I gave Chidi the other day.

8:40am
I meet her the bus stop. We leave.

This girl, you can waste time.

Its not my fault na. Don't worry. We'll beat swash when we get to class.

After Class
I'm not in a cheerful mood.
Geme is taking selfies with her iPhone.
I join her. The pictures are lovely.
iPhones have wonderful cameras.

My mood is brighter.

Tuesday evening is as usual only that I attend Bible study after MCB class.
Joint Campus Christian Body (JCCB#) executives come to pass a message.
A programme is coming up. Chibuike Ihejirika is part of them. He makes the announcement.

I enjoy Bible study classes a lot.
It pays to listen to God's word.

I'm exhausted.

To be continued...

ONE NIGHT

They met at a bar Him a fine, reserved  young man Her a bubbly young woman Once she set her eyes on him She knew she wanted him So she went and she sat and they talked About life, love, family,  work, About  Everything They talked their souls away Late into the night It felt like they were old friends They bonded And when they raised their heads It was midnight And they were alone 'Let's go to your place' she suggested She could not bear to spend a second without him "Oh No! " Yours will be fine They left in the darkness of the night The security man opened the gate 'Welcome Aunty' He said "Thank you" She opened the door to her house and they walked in, He gazed into her eyes Her feet were unsteady She closed her eyes and waited And come did he The taste of his lips was a mixture of orange juice and alcohol and cream It drove her mad Carefully he kissed her And when his hands went to t...

Lagos Na Wa : 5

I write this with my face covered. Please don't laugh at me. Remember Lagos Na Wa Episode 1 where I shared the tale of how I almost was taken to  Seme border?  If you didn't read it, go through my wall. It is some where there. So after the Lagos tour,  my rectum was dilated and ready to spill meaning I was pressed. I wanted to poop. Jesu! The urge was so strong and as soon as the bus entered the Island,  it intensified. I carried my bum bum with the poo ready to drop and sat in the bus. I got to Elegushi  bus stop,  alighted. A man I asked for directions to pointed at ahead of him and said that was the gate of the  Estate I was looking for. I ignored the Okada men at the bus stop and started trekking because I was scared of what the speed and bumps would do. That turned out to be a bad decision. Left,  right,  right and left. No gate insight. I convinced myself that I could do it. God knows I couldn't. My ancestors were just la...

The Error of 'Don't you Know you are a Girl? '

Part 1 Dear Society, When you want to correct a female going wrong, especially a child,  do not remind her that she is a girl. Do not tell her to stop because she is a girl. Tell her to stop and change because her actions are wrong. When she wears a skirt and sits with her legs wide open,  tell her to close them because it is wrong to sit with your undies exposed. When she talks arrogantly,  correct her because it is wrong to speak that way. Don't tell her to be polite because girls should be. Sensible humans are polite. Politeness is not gender specific. When she dresses indecently,  correct the wrongness of the dressing. Don't make it about her gender. Decency doesn't apply to one gender. When she is unable to cook at 18, remind her that it is only reasonable for an adult to be capable of making food for his/her survival. No gender needs the skill more. When she rides her car in a rough manner,  remind her that wrong driving has sent many to their...
