His pride- The African mate

Strange feelings

Kingsley P.O.V

After the call, I couldn't help myself, I opened the numerous pictures Julie has been sending to me on watsapp of herself and her roommate Amanda.

she always talk of her new friend Amanda and how intelligent she is. Her grades are encouraging, thanks to Amanda.

I had never actually looked at the pictures before now. I had this sudden desire to check out the face of the person that owned this beautiful voice that seems to have enchanted me.

God, she is actually an angel. the innocence in her chocolate brown eyes, her natural pink lips, her creamy light skin, the most beautiful set of white teeth that is suitable for toothpaste advert and her natural dimples that appears on both cheeks.

she seems to love smiling a lot because she is smiling in all the pictures Julie sent to me. suddenly I have this desire to keep those smiles permanently on her face.

what was I thinking? how can I be thinking of a girl I have never met. mtchwww. this can't be happening to me. I left the phone on my bed and rush to the bathroom to shower and prepare for the club. yes, that is the kind of thing I do not thinking about a girl aghrrrrr

I wore a simple white top that shows my abs with fitted blue jeans. yeah, it's all designers. and yes, I love to look good so I workout regularly. matching the clothes with my designers watch and sneakers, I checked myself in the mirror as I brush my hair.

hmmm. the boy is good. I love what I see. After applying my signature perfume I set out for the club with my driver Akpan.

when I got to the parking lot, Apan was standing beside the car.

I changed my mind. Akpan please drive to the Cubana lounge. Yes boss. he replied opening the back site for me.

Throughout the ride, my mind was constantly drifting back to the photos and the angelic voice I encountered a while ago.

After coming out of town, we drove some more miles before we got to the heart of Abuja, where the Cubana lounge is located. The Cubana lounge is a perfect place to enjoy and relax on a Friday night where you can drink while being serenaded with good music. Exactly what my mood need.

I resisted the urge to call my friend Chris. what I need now is a me time. Chris is also an IT student. we have been friends since secondary School. it was because of me that he decided to come to Abuja for his industrial training. He is an Engineering student of my school.

As I step in, I took in the environment. this place never fails to impress me. I noticed some single ladies at some tables. hopefully waiting for people like us for hook up hmmm.

'Kingsley' a loud familiar voice called out behind me. Talk of the devil. it's Christian.

Chris! I returned, hugging my best friend.

'good to see you man' he said hugging me back

You are here alone? I asked raising my brows

Yeah, I needed some 'me' time. he said sounding guilty.

chill men. I am also here for a me time I said patting his shoulder in a comforting manner.

cool then, let's hit the bar together he smiled, dragging me along.

so, xup? he asked as soon as the bar man hand over our choice drinks.

Nothing men, I just feel like chilling alone. You know enjoy my drink while I admire these wonderful art of God I smirked referring to the the beautiful ladies across the room.

kings man! he high five me, you never change.

Who will I change for? I am the hottest bachelor in town, that's good enough.

hmmm. one day, you will be bitten by the love bug. I hope your past will not interfere.

love my foot. love is for the weak not for me

you never know he said sipping his wine.

No no no, I am Kingsley Obi, I don't do love I laughingly said.

How is your little sister Julie? hope she is coping with school life.

yeah, she is cool. But enough about me. How is your work, hope they are treating you good there since you refused my offer to work in my company

Guy, we've been through this before. I told you I wanted to make it on my own. I appreciate the offer but it's best I struggle it out myself

cool men, one love. I a said patting his shoulder.

we chatted about so many things till 1am when we decided to call it a day.

Akpan and I drove Chris to his flat before going home to sleep. wow! I didn't even come home with any girl.

it's not what think. probably, I am not in the mood tonight. tommorow is another day

My mind kept going back to Amanda's sweet voice and beautiful pictures. I need to stop this and go to sleep.

By September I will be going back to school for my Higher National Diploma (HND) hopefully I will meet this Amanda and as usual she will throw herself at me like other girls. I will f**k her and get her off my system. That was my last thought before sleep finally claimed me

My phone ringtone, woke me up from my sleep. I groaned out loud, annoyed at the sudden disturbance from my sleep as I searched for the phone on my bed.

looking at the phone screen, I saw the annoying caller Katherine, my regular babe from school. she is also my class mate. I have explained to her on several occasions that we are not a thing. she seems to understand.

Hi Kate, I mumbled. you just woke me up.

Hello you and good morning. it's 11am and are still asleep? she returned

I am the boss of myself and besides, today is Saturday, it's not a bad idea to sleep in.

hmm. can I come over? she asked unlike Chris, her parents lives in Abuja that is why she is also here for her industrial training. although her presence has not prevented me from seeing other girls. she knows her place.

ok babe, you can come, I need some good action. it's been long. I said smiling

see you in an hour she said cutting the call.

I smiled as I roll over the bed lying on my back. maybe a good s*x is what I need to get that underaged Amanda off my brain.
