MOM'S BEST FRIEND - Episode 26 LIFE AFTER SCHOOL My life returned to normal after Titi’s departure, until graduation. By then I’ve been able to set up a few businesses here and there. It enabled me to open up to mom about my financial status and she was more than glad. Her son was already a CEO before leaving school. That way, I didn’t have to look for a job like most of my graduating colleagues would. Mom prayed for me and blessed my car thinking it was newly acquired. She even invited Mrs Olu over for the weekend. As they say, one man’s meat is another man’s poison. Titi’s final exit from my life became a blessing to Mrs Olu. My interest in having a relationship began to dwindle. Mrs Olu gave me all the sex I needed. One Sunday morning, after smoking some high grade weed Ibrahim brought from his last trip to Ghana, I skipped church. An idle hand is the devil’s workshop so I picked up my keys and decided to drive around aimlessly. That was how I bumped into Nancy, my golden haired friend. She was returning from a salon where she went for a manicure/pedicure session. As we talked, she held out both hands in front of her breasts like the nails were yet to dry. I told her to get into the car so I could take her home and she hopped in. We got talking and she described me as a very crazy dude with innocent looks. That was when we both tried to recall how we met. My flashbacks came instantly and I remembered. I just returned from taking a pee in the toilet inside the nightclub. Then this slim beauty walked up to me as I lit up my Benson and Hedges cigarette. “Can I use your lighter?” she yelled over the loud music. I passed her the lighter and she brought out a pack of Benson and Hedges too. She opened it and was disappointed. The pack was empty. By the time, I was smoking my last stick too so I had none to offer her. Quickly, I suggested that we go get some at the bar and she followed me. After getting another pack, I bought a bottle of scotch and we danced together. She was at the club alone and that was good for me. Before I could use my lyrics on her, Ibrahim called me. I excused myself and raced home. Money over everything was my motto. I needed to be online right away to give Ibrahim some required details on the job. Shortly after attending to Ibrahim, I slept off. Later that morning, I woke up very hungry so I decided to eat out. As I entered the neighborhood restaurant, the first person I saw was Nancy. From there, we became friends and found out we both resided in the same neighborhood. That was my own story but Nancy had a more elaborate version. She adjusted herself into her seat and asked, “Will you like to hear the truth?” “Of course. Why not?” I responded. Then Nancy started. “Before I asked you for the lighter, I was in the toilet too. I could hear you talking to some lady over the phone. You asked if you should go over to her house and fvck her. Next thing, you started promising to be gentle next time. I guess she was complaining about the size of your thing…” Nancy said before I cut in. “Wait! You heard all that?” I asked and she nodded in affirmation. Then she continued, “...that night I was feeling somehow from the alcohol already. I eavesdropped on your conversation and it became worse. As soon as you left, I followed you. You dropped the empty cigarette pack in the trash can but I picked it up. I just had to find a way to talk to you…” she confessed before I cut in again. “So, we’ll have had a one night stand if I didn’t leave at the time?” I asked. Nancy got shy and could say nothing but “Hmm!” after swallowing some saliva. She just focused on the road and didn’t say anything else. She was obviously getting lost in her thoughts. My c0ck began to breathe between my thighs. The rude boy in me showed up and I began to drive toward my house without her permission. “Tunde, this is not the road to my street”, Nancy protested. “Oh yes I know. I just have to show you my house in case you feel like coming over sometime,” I said. I slowed down in front of my house and pointed to my apartment. “Really? You’re just gonna show me your house from the roadside? That’s rude. Please take me home.” Nancy said. I apologized to her immediately and hit the reverse gear. I parked in front of the gate and we both entered my apartment. “Wow! Big boy. So you live alone?” she asked. Before I could give an answer, Nancy said, “Okay! Let’s leave. I guess that’s all you have to show me.” My head rang instantly and I picked the signal. “Not so fast, there’s another place you need to see,” I said. Then I held her by the waist and led her to my bedroom. To be continued…
