Ok, so where did we stop? Hehehe... So, I'm here at the beauty shop, getting my hair re-locced, if that spelling is right! I am on this natural swing, been on since my emancipation on April 19th 2010.....that's a whole different story....we'll get there someday!
So back to the way we were..... Ok ....so tonight, I continue from last Friday when I started the top portion of this blog! Terrible blogger I must be! So much has gone on in the last week but "Chronicles" is all about yester-years so here we go! From here on, I'll only be using nicknames of my lover.....hehehe. I had really gotten comfortable with boo and he likewise. He was my big "Snugglie Bear" and I was his "Sugar Lumps". We were at his apartment just hanging out after having watched "Love Jones". For some reason, we always analysed movies together after watching them; if the movie was well scripted? How realistic it was, if it mirrored life as we knew it? If the acting was any good? The likes of such were our days in Ago. We were practically attached by the hip. Rolling together everywhere and like he used to say, I was his road-dog, we were like 5 and 6! I decided to go to my hall to fix some dinner and as always he came along. He was hungry for beans and plantain, so I got to cooking. A few of his boys were in the neighbor-hood and before I knew it, I was using 3 kerosene stoves! One for the pot of beans and the other 2 for plantain! He had sent the indigene kids next door to the market to get more plantain as what I had at home could not feed all them mouths. Some where along the line, my dorm mates started bringing out plates so we just had a good ol' community dinner! Lol... We all just hung out that night and I spied out the corner of my eye, his ex walking home and trying to catch a glimpse of what was going on in my dorm. She was friends with a few of his and my dorm mates. So greetings were exchanged then she called out to SB!!! Oh well, they are house-mates so whatever! He goes over to her and I acted non-chalant clearing up plates and cleaning up. He was back in less than 2 minutes and came to check up on me. I could tell he was searching my face and body language for any reaction, but I was back in my zone of "we are just kicking it" so no reactions from me. We say our good-nights and head for his place in the company of Yetunde, Jonomo and Dayo. In their compound, we chilled in the courtyard for a bit as the guys delved into boys yarns, funny thing is I actually enjoy hanging with guys and listening to their "philosophical" ideas on what guys talk about. Lol... Jonomo and Yetunde take their leave. I met Bolajoko, Dayo's main squeeze that night, real cutie of a girl and very shy nice lady. We talked for bit and left them to retire for the night. I get comfy in one of his t-shirts for the night, we are talking and Dayo calls him out saying he needed to talk with him. He leaves but not before he gives me a kiss on my forehead. I guess I must have been really tired because I did not know when I started dozing off! All I hear is the door open because I was startled from my dozing state about to stretch under the covers and tease him about how long he had been gone when I see his ex walk into the room!! I bolted up for a second then caught myself. I said hi to which she did not respond. I go further to tell her SB was in the living room with Dayo if she needed his attention. Still no response from her. At this point, I just turned my back to her and proceed to sleep. I really did not give a hoot what she was there for. I was seething underneath the sheets but I was not going to let her see that! I felt the bed move under pressure and I turned to see what she was doing. She sat on the edge of the bed!!! Gaddamit! What the hell??? Are we 3 going to sleep on the same bed? In the same room? Where the hell was he??? Gosh!!! Well being me, a girl with a lot of pride, I got my day clothes, went to the bathroom, changed and proceeded to look for him or Dayo and let them I was heading to "my dorm"!!! I found them outside in the yard! Calmly, I tell him his "girlfriend" needs him in his room and I was headed to my place. He looks at me like he had just seen a ghost and says what do I mean? I give no further explanations and go to open the gate, he holds my hand to stop me, I was close to tears at this point and angry at myself for that expression of weakness! Coldly and under my breathe, I tell him to let go! I stormed out of there not giving him a chance to see my tears. No guy had ever brought me to tears and I sure was not going to give him the pleasure of that. Mind you, it was 1am!! Way past the curfew time but I did not care!. I ran the street's length to my dorm with my heart racing like crazy, hoping and praying to God that the vigilantes were not anywhere closeby. Getting to my dorm, as expected, the main door was locked! I see the light in one of my mates room still on so I called out to her to open the door but she does not have the key to do so! Meaning she had to go knock on our land-lady's door, waking her up to let me in! My luck could not get any worse! I wait for what seemed like endless minutes till the door was opened. I am so grateful to my land-lady and mate for not asking any questions, I guess from the look on my face, they could tell I sure was not in no mood to talk! I thanked them and made my way to my room, good thing Kemi was with her law mates so I had the space to myself and cried myself to sleep. This marked a new territory in my love-life! He had told me a while back that she wanted to get back with him but did not go into details and since this was all new to me and I of cause did not ask any questions! All the emotions I was going through were new and unknown! Anger at myself for feeling this soft! I was a strong chic dammit! My nickname was "thug nigress"! Jealous? Was that the emotion I felt? But why? It wasn't like we defined our "thing" as being exclusive, we were just kicking it but still!!?? I barely slept that night. I was up and about 6am! Fetching water for my shower from the well in front of my dorm, I look up and see him and Dayo coming my way! Gosh! How to deal with the awkwardness of all these?!?!? How was I supposed to behave? To be continued in next installment!!! Lol..... Love makes the world go Round!! © ~Moby Sugar~
