My Adaobi episode 4

Episode 4

[]Ada came out to meet me at a spot a little distant from where they lived. She ran to me without her arms stretched for a hug, i hugged her and lifted her off the ground, whirled her around and dropped her. We held each other in a tight embrace for some time before i we disengaged and i observed her all over. She wore lose blue gown but her features were still well defined. I observed her long enough to decide that i hadn’t made a mistake in falling for her. She was my spec and i could trade anything for her even Janet. I took her to a nearby pavement and i sat on it while she sat on my laps.
“Who’s phone did you call me with?” i asked her
“My aunt’s own, don’t call it but i will always call you with it”
“Okay or maybe i will get my sister to do what she did the other”.
She smiled and her facial features lit up. In that moment that we were alone, nothing else mattered, not even the chance that her aunt could bust in on us, all that mattered was that we were together once more and was going to make the most out of it. The time was a little to 6pm and we weren’t in a rush to leave. Her aunt was a nurse and so had gone for her night shift while the husband was still at work.
“When will you be coming to my house?” i asked her
“Whenever you want ”
” I want now”
“You know its not possible, i just got here, it will look like am a bad girl” she said
“Hmmm, are you a good girl?” i asked her and smiled
“Quincy! ” she called and frowned.
” Don’t mind me, you know you are my queen, i was just kidding”. She smiled and kissed me, i held onto her as our lips made noise as we kissed. We laughed and she stood up. We decided it was getting late and we had to leave, i walked her hand in hand to their gate where we hugged and kissed each other Goodnight.

I was back at Janet’s house the next day where we Romanced her maths textbook. This time around, we were in her room and the door was locked on her parents suggestion, they didn’t want her younger ones disturbing us, if only they knew.

“I’m hot” Janet said fanning herself with her fingers.
“Of course you are hot, with your killer curves and everything ” i said pretending not to understand what she meant by being hot.
” Don’t be silly, can’t you see i’m sweating here”
“Yes now, you are smoking hot, why won’t you sweat”.
She hissed at me, got up from the bed and switched on the fan. She came back and sat on my laps. I dropped her on the bed and kissed her. We kissed and kissed and that was all that we did. She had earlier put a stop to our sexual activities ever since she attended a church program where the pastor strongly condemned premarital s-x, meanwhile the pastor had been rumored to be banging the choir girls. Hypocritical..
We ended our supposed mathematics lesson by 5pm and i got up to go. My eyes fell on a Nokia torchlight phone that was on her drawer.
“Are you using it?” i asked her picking it up.
“No, why do you ask?”
“I need it”
“what for?”
“for something, you ask too many questions” i said
“You always say that whenever you are up to something mischievous” she said.
“Don’t worry, you don’t need to know”.

I left with the phone while she saw me off, dragging me along.

I bought a simcard, registered it and gave the phone to Adaobi and that bridged our communication gap to an extent.
She had called me one day and asked me to suggest a school for her, her aunt was going to enroll her in a school and wanted her to make the enquiries herself. She had wanted to come to my school but i wouldn’t have that. It would be a total disaster considering that she may end up in the same class with Janet.
We ended up choosing another school which was a little close to mine and it was where princess schooled. A Clever me knew i had higher chances of seeing her everyday if she was there, my cover was picking up princess from school which was my mom’s duty until Ada came and i relieved her of it. She thanked God that her Son was shaping into a responsible young man who cared about his family while I thanked God for that beautiful opportunity.
I had only one problem. Janet. I was her boyfriend and also her handbag. She loved showing me off like i was an expensive chanel bag. She had insisted she would follow me anytime i went to pick Princess and i had bluntly refused. It became a messy issue, of course she wasn’t stupid, she probably suspected something was fishy. She fought and fought and lost. She was gradually losing her relevance to me, Ada had taken over. All my times were spent with Ada and Janet saw little of me. It drove her crazy until she couldn’t take it anymore. She came into my class one day while we were on break. She wanted to talk and i didn’t want to. She had insisted or hell would be let lose. I was scared of hell so i had to give in.

“Quincy was it something i did?” she asked as she held my hand. We were seated alone at the back of the class. She was getting emotional and i was disliking the whole drama.
“Jane you did nothing and nothing is wrong, i’m still with you, am i not? ”
” No, you are not, you are pushing me away and you know it, and it’s hurting me” she was obviously trying her best not to cry and i prayed she doesn’t, to save me the embarrassment.
“I’m sorry if you feel that way, its just that i have been busy and nothing more. I still love you Jane “. I said that but i wasn’t sure i meant it.
” Then why don’t come looking for me again? Why don’t you call, and when i call, you don’t pick, Quin why?”
” I told you i have been busy, i wonder why you are making so much fuss over nothing “..

The bell rang for end of break and she had to go back to her class. We arranged to meet after school. She would accompany to pick my sister from school. Adaobi didn’t go to school that day so it was safe.

We walked all the way to princess school and walked back together. It was a bit fun as k carried princess on my head. A feeling still existed between us but what i felt for Ada was much more and i had prayed it was not the effect of our newly found love which often faded as time goes on. I accompanied Janet right to their gate, she hugged me and i felt a pang of guilt pierce my heart. She obviously loved me but the feeling was deviating from being mutual.

“Janet” i called her as she wanted to go inside their house.
“Yes” she answered and turned
“I’m sorry but i’m seeing someone else” i said. I felt like I needed to let her know. I didn’t want to disappoint her or hurt her more than she already was. I don’t know how i expected her to react to it but her reaction wasn’t expected.
She barely nodded as a string of tear fell of her left eye. She said goodbye and closed the gate behind her. I carried my little sister home feeling guilty and free.
