THE DEVIL IN ME
EPISODE 6
THE ER0TIC DESIRE
I stood up from the bed with anger still bubbling inside of me like a boiling water, all of a sudden I remembered that I haven’t done my assignment which is due to be submitted the following day being Monday.
I quickly grabbed my bag from the night stand, unzipped it brought out my note book try to mutter every concentration I could get within me. I let the pen take control, like the book warm I am, I love education, this is where I am the king, I rule this world of academic and nothing can make me hate it either.
My parents are very proud of me for that, before I know it, I was done with the assignment in no time at all. My tummy started grumbling and I remembered that I had my last bite at my father’s house, went into my cubicle kitchen, looking for what to prepare, after searching for sometimes.
I finally decided on making my favorite garri and soup though I had made the soup before going for weekend, I just brought it out from the freezer microwaved it and started digging into the mountain of garri that I made.
I love garri and soup because it gives me much energy, I can’t imagine myself staying a whole week without eating garri it will be like a man who has been imprisoned for years. While still in my seventh heavens, enjoying my egusi soup and my delicious meal, a knock interrupted me and brought me back to reality,
“Oh! Oh! Who is that person that is disrupting this great feast of mine.” I muttered to myself.
“Who is there?” I inquired, response that came from the other end shook me,
“It’s me Ibudu,” still molding my eba and sweating like Christmas goat, I asked him to let himself in.
“Aaaaaaaaah! Ikemba you are enjoying oo, omo see food! No wonder you dey fresh for this campus so nah this kind thing dey keep you going abi?” he said and laughing at the same time. I laughed too, offered him a seat,
“Stop teasing and come and join me in the great feast,” we both laughed again sarcastically, he laughed further and said.
“Hmmm! If I should join you now I wouldn’t be able to make it home, I just came down from my mountain before coming here, so go ahead.” he politely declined.
“If you say so then, so what brought the Ibudu one of this campus into my lodge?” he laughed,
“Ikemba, you can say that again.” he proudly replied,
“Okay! I am here because of the night club I mentioned to you earlier on, if you don’t mind coming with me, there will be lots of drinks, dance and babes. Guy, you should come and loosen up a bit you are too tight.
I will personally arrange a beautiful babe that can give you lap dance that will loosen you a bit and if you want anything further she can take you there.” I just sat down there staring and listening to Ibudu in awe, not being used to this lifestyle, I politely declined his request.
“Ibudu, am so sorry am not a night person like most of you and moreover tomorrow I have 7 ‘O’ clock classes, if I join you know I will useless myself tomorrow, am so sorry I will make it up to you some other times,” I told him, he tried persuading me further but I stuck to my ground, realizing that he can’t win this with me he decided to use blackmail,
“You know that one of the babes there will be Adaobi, don’t you want to desperately be with her? In fact if you are love sick as you profess why can’t you come with me maybe she will give you a chance there?”
“What did you just say? Did you just say Adaobi will be there?” I asked with my emotions building up,
“Yes.” he replied.
“Not only will she be there, she is going to play games if you know what I mean?” My brain working overtime, I thought about another guy’s hands around her not to think of heaven knows what else will happen. Feeling sick in my stomach, I felt like throwing up all the food I have eaten.
I excused myself from Ibudu, went with my dishes, dumped them in the sink without washing, an unusual phenomenon, I opened my wardrobe found a pair of jeans and white shirt I slipped into them told Ibudu I’m ready.
Ibudu being thrilled with my actions, asked.
“Are you really coming to the party?” I answered,
“Yes.” still looking confused, he said,
“Okay we are good to go.”
Arriving at the party, the hall was already filled with so much sweaty bodies, music, dance, smoking, shouting and someone even threw up. I was fast enough to get out of her way or else I would have been drenched with the mess. Like Ibudu said there were lot and lots of naked or half naked girls, guys everywhere, over flowing drinks.
Ibudu being used to this already, found some of our course mates, they found an empty table, Ibudu ordered for drinks and cigarettes, this was served by a nearby sales girl, Ibudu just got caught up as a blonde girl came over to seat on his laps. I was so taken aback that all I could do was to stare at them having their so called fun, finally one of Ibudu guys said,
“Guy where are you from, why are you staring at us like a zombie?” Ibudu cut him off:
“Don’t mind him, he is a papa’s boy!” I stared at Ibudu to prove that am not a papa’s boy as Ibudu claimed. I took one bottle of the vodka from the table and drank directly from it. The effect almost knock me off but I stood my ground, the burning that came from it, I felt nauseous, the last hours spent at the party were a blur for me. I could not even remember how I got to my room.
To be continued.
