Episode 1
Emeka was still confused.He had never traveled across state to visit a woman before. It has always been the other way round. Tina had told him that she cannot leave the house locked and come to Awka to visit. Her parents travelled to the village and won’t be coming back for days. That’s what she told Emeka and suggested it would be better if Emeka come to Asaba and spend some days with him. They would be home alone and have all the fun to the fullest.
Emeka was a student of Nnamdi Azikiwe University Awka and would be having an exam in a week time. He met Tina on facebook a month ago and they started talking. He had asked her when they can possibly get to see each other.Tina had always replied “soon” and seems to be that soon.
Emeka’s phone rang again. It was Tina.
“Hello baby, please are you still coming today? I miss you already. I can’t wait to see you ” Tina sounded like an angel.
Her voice excited Emeka the more. The head started welcoming the idea of going to meet Tina in Asaba. He had told her countless times how he loves her and how beautiful she looks. Now, he has the chance to be home alone with her for about four days before he comes back and use two days to prepare for his exam.
He couldn’t imagine having a soft feel of those heavy backside he saw in her pictures. The thought of s*****g those her round titties all night drove him crazy. He is surely going to have a good time in Asaba.
“Yes, my dear. I’m actually making preparations. I will soon be on my way ” He finally replied.
He could hear Tina’s happy giggles from the other end of the telephone. She sounded so happy and this made Emeka so convinced that this girl is madly in love with him. He smiled too and licked his lips in anticipation for the delicious girl that awaits him.
He looked up at the small clock hanging on his wall. It was few minutes past 8am.
There was a knock on Emeka’s door. John who didn’t even knock twice or wait to be told to come in pushed the door open and came in.
“Goat.. You no wan get sense. If you knock you suppose wait to know if person dey or not. You be mumu” Emeka told John as he stood up to get few clothes ready for the Asaba trip. John was one of his closest friends. He wasn’t bothered by Emeka’s words and Emeka knew that it meant nothing.
“But wait.. Why I suppose even knock before I enter? and where are you going with these clothes ” John asked after he sat down.
“Which one I go answer first. Okay, I dey go village and for why you suppose knock and wait… You no add wait.. You say why you suppose knock. You suppose knock and wait because… because.. What if I dey on top woman? ” He stopped and started laughing.
“Thunder fire you there” John shook his head. Emeka knew why he was laughing and he knew John was also aware. He remembered when he visited John in his apartment on his way to school to borrow one of his textbook but on getting to the door, all he heard was “ahhh uuuh John harder harder yes I love you baby…… ” He gently opened the door, went straight to get the textbook and zoomed out. John saw him but the girl he was p******g was too carried away to notice that someone entered. Emeka gave him two thumbs up before zooming off. John had to run with the speed of light to lock the door before an unwanted person comes in.
“Why the sudden travel. Our exams starts in seven days time. Hope all is well?” John asked Emeka who was almost set.
“Serious student.I know our exam is in seven days time. But i think i can still use two days to prepare. I will spend four days in the village” Emeka replied with his mind already in Asaba.
“Guy hope no problem sha? Talk to me o i be your person o” John querried.
Emeka lied that his Family asked him to come for an important family prayer which will last for four days and that he will also pray for exam success during the family prayer.
“So you go use two days prepare for exam?” John asked again.
“Even if i no prepare.I will pray to pass”
Emeka doesnt hide anything from his real friends but this time he found it really awkward to admit that he is traveling across state to be with a woman for four days despite having an exam in seven days time. A woman he never met before. A place he has never been to before. Tina said this is the perfect time for them to meet and be together because she never knew when such an opportunity would surface again and she was never allowed to go out.Emeka must not miss this opportunity. The exams can wait, afterall not everybody reads for exam. People ask their friends for help in the exam hall and still pass in flying colors so his own will not be an exception. He must go to Asaba and nothing will stop it. Four days home alone with Tina. This is honeymoon. His mind was already made up.
Emeka was an adventurous young man, 24, handsome and fair. This made him spend less time and effort in getting any woman he wants. He doesn’t spend much because he is a man of sweet words. He has mastered how to talk his way out. He doesn’t believe in keeping girlfriends. He has female friends who are friends with benefits. When some of the friends with benefits are no longer beneficial,he forgets them and looks for replacement. No strong emotional rollercoasters,no girlfriend wahala at all.
He believes in exploring and tasting varieties. He explores the thick, slim, dark, fair, tall,short ,fat and even older women. He wants to have the full experience so that when he finally settles down, his soul would be satisfied with the fact that he played the game to the fullest.
John saw him off to the park where he boarded a bus heading to Onitsha. From Onitsha he will take another another bus to Asaba which is in Delta state.
The Journey from Awka to Onitsha was smooth and an enjoyable one for Emeka he called Tina severally assuring her that he is on his way. Tina continued to smile happily over the phone. Emeka begged her to make sure her phone is charged so that he will not be stranded when he gets to Asaba. Tina guaranteed him that her battery can last for a full day. She told him she can’t wait any longer. She can’t wait to finally welcome his Dickson into her honeypot. Emeka had told her he got a big Dickson that will drive her crazy. She wanted to talk dirty like they normally do but Emeka reminded her that he was in a bus that she shouldn’t worry. He promised her that she will be alright. He vowed to do her well like never before before terminating the call not minding if people heard them or not. Besides, it’s nobody’s business. They should go and mind their business and stop eavesdropping on other people’s conversations.
In an Hour, Emeka arrived Onitsha and notified Tina that he is almost there. He told her to get ready to come pick when he drops at Asaba.
The first Bus he saw loading enroute to Asaba had only five passengers in it. He thought to himself that the bus will take time to fully load. He walked forward and met another one. It had about seven people. He entered making them eight. He looked at the time, it was 11am. The bus driver wasted no time in collecting money from him the moment he settled in.
“I will be in Asaba before 12″ He said. It was a 14 seater bus including the driver so they needed five more passengers to fill it up. Emeka was hopeful. If anybody had told him that he was the only passenger in the bus, Emeka would have disagreed because other people sitting in the bus were behaving like they were running late.
At regular intervals, one of them would say ” Driver load persengers na. I Don go late.What is all this?”
Emeka relaxed he had others speaking his mind. He looked forward and saw three beautiful girls coming into the bus. He was happy for at least, they will soon be on their way.
The moment the three girls entered, the two men sitting beside told him “Bros abeg shift make we come down. We wan go buy something we dey come ”
He adjusted and they came down. He watched them head straight to the driver as he squeezed some change into their hands.
“Maybe the driver owes them change ” Emeka thought.
“Asaba two chance, Asaba two chance” The driver kept shouting. He had no conductor. Since he collected money immediately from passengers, he saw no need for a conductor.
Two more passengers made their way into the bus and the driver as usual wasted no time. He collected money from them as soon as they sat down.
Almost immediately, the same thing happened again, two people came down from the bus and made their way to the passenger who also squeezed some change into their hands.
This senerio continued until it dawned on Emeka that he was actually the first passenger on that bus. Those seven people he met earlier were used as bus fillers to deceive people into believing that the bus was almost filled up. They were paid a some little amount of money to do the job. After getting paid, they go into another empty bus and sit down waiting for real passengers.
This really baffled Emeka. As in how can an able bodied young man leave his house in the morning for this type of stupid work. He thought about it over and over again and blamed on the hardship in the country. He had spent more than two hours there and yet the bus is still not filled up. He was very bitter. Before he knew it, hunger set in. He had to satisfy the stomach. A seller nearby helped his life with gala and soft drink and asked if she could keep the change. The way Emeka looked at her on hearing that request made her produce his change immediately. It’s like she forgot that a hungry man is an angry man. Coupled with the bus loading experience, his anger was too big and anyone whom he decides to unleash the anger on would be like someone hit by a trailer.
As he drank the chilled Coca Cola,he took consolation in the fact that soon he will be with Tina. His head on her breasst will calm him down. Rubbing his hands on her thighs will reduce his anger. When she finally take his Dickson into her mouth, all this bad experiences will be forgotten. It will be a thing of the past for sure.,
“Oh my Tina, I am coming my dear” He murmured. I am coming to make you cΓΉm. He smiled sheepishly almost forgetting everything in a hurry. She had told him he will go crazy when she spells coconut while riding him. One thing he likes about Tina is that she talks freely on the phone with him. She likes talking s*x and how she likes it.
The last passenger got into the bus and it was time to move. Emeka smiled,finally the wait is over.
The driver got in and jammed the door. Turned the ignition. No way. He tried again. No response.
“Na fuel. Make una no vex. Make I rush go buy fuel” The driver said, took a little can from the bus and hurriedly went away.
Twenty minutes later, there was no driver in sight. Some of the drivers came down to get some air. It was then they discovered that the car had flat tyres and was looking like a parked vehicle that had not been operated for days.
It dawned on them that the so called driver had ran away with their money. The bus broke down there two days ago and the owner abandoned it.
By now it was almost 3pm. All the passengers came down staring at each other like people who were delivered from some evil spirits.
