âI seriously do love you. I donât know what else to say in order to convince youâ i said softly, searching Jeniferâs eyes.
âYou donât understand. All iâm saying is that what you are doing isnât right. Moreover your friend Tony is very much in love with me and i love him too. Thereâs no vacancy in my heart right now. Please just do the right thing, go and forget about meâ she pleaded solemnly.
âno i canâtâ i answered strongly, frowning my face.
âvery well then, Tony will get to hear of your disturbance. I canât hide it from him anymoreâ she threatened and stood up. I equally stood up and faced her.
âyea do the right thing and tell him. It makes no difference to meâ i breathed, kissed her left cheek and hurriedly left the apartment.
It wasnât as if i was escaping or something. I only left in order to give her the breathing space she needed in thinking over my advances.
I knew she wasnât going to tell Tony anything.
As i headed to my car which i intelligently parked some distance away from the compound, my phone rang again. It was still Tony calling me. I breathed deeply and answered.
âoga Tonyâ i hailed,
âwhere are you?. You havenât been answering your callsâ he asked.
âoh sorry. I left the phone in my car, so where are youâ i answered,
âiâm just leaving your house, thought you were thereâ he said.
âfine letâs meet at Prestige hotel. Letâs chill out there for a whileâ i suggested.
âno i rather go home and sleep. My day was stressful and hard. Jenifer also isnât helping at all, sheâs been acting so strange lately. I wanted to discuss many things with you but we can leave it for tomorrowâ he said and hung up. I shrugged, switched on my car engine and drove home.
.
Tony wasnât a graduate like me. He equally was about two years older. However he made good money when he left the country in his early twenties. He came back few years later to establish in Benin city. He had a good number of buses plus properties scattered around town. We both came from the same village which helped in making our friendship very strong.
As i drove home, I thought about him, his girlfriend and my plans. I sure wanted the girl which truly was the highest act of betrayal any man can do to his friend. But i cared not, hissing as i noticed that my joystick was half erect.
I tried making it go down but it refused. The little love play i earlier had with Jenifer truly was something else. I was so close in getting the treasure.
I hissed again, grabbed my phone and called Selena. A call-girl{pr0stitute} i befriended during my final days in the university. We constantly did favours for each other and that helped in sealing our friendship.
âEminem how far?â she greeted as she answered my call.
âare you free??â i asked,
âyes ooâ she answered,
âjust come over with a friend. Please she should be as beautiful as you areâ i said playfully.
âwe will be there by 9pmâ she answered, laughed and hung up. I smiled to myself with satisfaction.
There is nothing like spending the night with two experienced bit.chesâŠ.
