My Life

Chapter six

Dotun’s POV

College for me as been an interesting one, I made new friends, studied hard and party hard, am not a heavy drinker but I drink alcohol in decent quantity, at first I maintained my gentle boy streak from secondary but as time goes on I found ways to explore and enjoy myself, I didn't go looking for ladies but I often see them winking and leaning towards me suggestively and as a smart guy I don’t waste the opportunity, don’t get me wrong am not a Casanova but am a man, and a man has needs but it all stopped when i met Lizzy at a friend’s party on a Friday night, I saw her at the other side of the room and I felt drawn to her, she was a real beauty, short curly black hair that frames her oval face perfectly, she was wearing a short red shirk that stopped just above her knees with a white top that frames her body so well, hugging her in all the right places, something about her reminds me of Ire, maybe it was because she was wearing Ire’s favourite colour, I walked up to her and said hi, love your skirt, compliments your colour and she looks at me and said thanks, but the dry tone in which she said the thanks and the hard set of her face i knew she was not a one night stand lady and she somehow reminded me of her once more, Ire was that kind of girl who doesn’t take compliments well, she could smell a guy’s intention from a mile away and so she always responded to flirtatious compliment in a dry tone just like Lizzy, I laughed and she was taken aback by my reaction, well at least that got her attention, after my laughter subsided I explained to her why her response was so hilarious to me and she couldn’t help but smile as well, we became fast friends and I soon found out she has some traits that I admire so much in Ire, like the passion she shows when it comes to women affairs.

Lizzy and I started dating after a year of been friends and I love her so much though she was an extreme feminist, we went for parties, clubbing on Fridays and enjoyed the weekends together. Life was good and between studying, partying and hanging out with friends and Liz, four years went by so fast, I dated Liz for two of those years. It was fun and I enjoyed my college days but life must go on.

Ire’s POV

College days was fun, I did a lot of exploring, going for road trips with friends, speaking more in public, I had to learn, my course of study require presenting to lecturers and public from time to time so it became a regular thing for me, most time am considered the spokesman or woman for my team and I find I love explaining things, initially I was shocked at this development been that I use to be very shy and when I went from shy and I didn't know how I went from being shy to a spoke person but I guess practicing paid off and now that I am, I absolutely love it, on Saturdays I go to gym to do aerobics, play volleyball and basketball and I watch movies or go to the cinema with my boyfriend Tony, he was a nice guy but I knew he was a player, he is always trying to hide for one girl or the other and he always has a backup story to cover for his act, Sandra he said was a family friend who would ask him for money if she sees him and Laura was a friend's girl but she would also bill him, this way he's always hiding from one girl or the other everyone we were walking together, but this didn’t matter to me at all cause I have vowed not to be intimate with him and I was simply using him as a cover so no other guy would disturb me though I was been very careful not to enter any trap, he was nice to hang out with though, his stories are usually funny, corny but funny, though I knew most of them were made up cause I ask him about some of the incidents intentionally at times and his answers are always way off but, it keeps me entertained so I don’t mind and I certainly didn’t tell him I knew he was a big fat liar.

And just like yesterday four years was over and it was time to move into the real world.
