1285 Words
As I reached the floor, Richard came back and helped me get up.
“What exactly do you want to tell her?”
I asked him.
“Bro, that girl really annoyed me. I want to actually know her reason for doing what she did.
“But I told you the threatening message she sent to me.”
I replied.
“Bro…”
Richard was fuming in anger.
Back then, in school, he had always had anger issues, and it seemed like he still had those anger issues up to that moment.
We looked around and Ivy was gone.
“You could have allowed me to show her something, bro.”
Richard said.
“Leave her for now, bro."
We had more discussions about our lives back then in school, finished up our drinks and got ready to depart.
It's already getting late.
“Thanks bro for your care and everything I do appreciate."
I said to him,
“You don't need to thank me, bro, that's what I ought to do. "I still have your back. Any update let me know”.
He replied to me.
We had a handshake and parted ways.
I got home freshened up.
I made some food and ate.
I sat down, flashed back at the scenario Richard almost created at the bar.
“Thank God he didn't later confront her.”
I said to myself and dozed off.
I woke up the next morning and it was a Saturday morning.
I brushed my teeth and went out for Saturday jogging.
On my way jogging, I saw some ladies with big bums doing the same.
Their big buttocks were jumping as they jogged.
I remembered my last experience and got myself immediately.
I can't trust women again.
I shifted from their lane and stayed where I wouldn't see them.
“I don't need any temptation."
I muttered to myself.
I was done with my morning exercise, so I headed for home.
I got home freshened up and made some food.
I ate and picked up my phone..
“What’s good bro, hope you are getting yourself from the trauma you went through."
Richard's message came in.
“Sure I'm getting myself."
I replied.
“I would love to come know where you live”
He said.
“That won't be a problem at all, bro. I will send you my address so that you can come tomorrow or something
I sent him my address and we chatted more.
After 48 hours, Richard came by..
“My bro.. Your house makes sense o.. You will give me an update o..”
He teased me.
“We're just packaging bro.. Nothing much."
I served him wine from my refrigerator and we drank.
We talked, ate and played different board games.
We were done with everything, and it was time for him to leave.
“Your place is not actually bad, man, thanks for today."
He said.
I saw him off till he entered a vehicle and zoomed off.
On reaching the next day, I went to campus to attend some lectures.
We had our lectures and when done, I stayed back to have some rest before going back, only to see Ivy again from a distance with those particular girls I had seen her with before.
“I said it, they are doing the same thing with her. Bunch of bitches..”
I said with anger.
Anytime I see Ivy, I always get angry, and I don't want to be setting my eyes on her again, but she keeps showing up.
I just left that spot before the worst would happen.
I went home, did my normals and slept off.
It was Sunday morning.
I hurriedly freshened up.
I don't wanna be late to church.
Done freshening up, took some meals because I didn't want anything like hunger or something to distract me at the church.
Done with everything.
I put on my well ironed senator clothes, put on my church shoes, applied my nice perfumes.
Wished to look nice in the presence of God.
Done with dressing, I left my house.
Our church was located inside the campus, so I headed there.
On reaching there, I sat down with all holiness.
Listened carefully and heard all the words of God.
All the church activities were conducted, and the holy mass was dismissed.
I suddenly felt someone tapping me from behind.
I looked back, lo and behold, it was Ivy.
“Hi Chad, long time..”
She started.. With a smile on her face.
“What do you want again?”
I asked angrily.
“Calm down.. I believe you saw my message.
She said, giving that devilish smile.
I was actually boiling inside.
“You are actually so sweet Chad. I haven't had a chance to compliment you since then”.
She said, still giving that devilish smile.
“I heard all about you, babyboy”.
Her friend added immediately.
Irene was tall too, slim and dark.
Not actually popular like Ivy, but they both seemed to be tight friends.
“I would love to have a taste of you."
She said and they laughed.
“What do you mean?"
I asked her immediately, furious.
“Nothing much Chad”
Irene replied.
She already knew my name.
“So Ivy told her everything, including my name.”
I muttered to myself.
“Ivy, what gave you the guts to do what you did? I sent you a message, and you didn't give a damn reply.
“Remember the message I sent to you Chad, but I would love to have you again."
She said as they walked away.
I sat down thinking about what actually was going on.
I was so angry and down, deep thoughts.
After thinking for like 20 minutes, I stood up and left the church.
I went straight home.
I did my normals and took my siesta.
After 2 hours, I woke up, grabbed my phone and headed to gist Richard.
“Bro, you won't believe what happened at church today."
I sent him a message.
Richard is always online.
He replied to me within 5 minutes.
“Get me lit”.
He replied with some emojis.
“Try and guess."
I sent it to him.
“You had an encounter with Ivy?”
I knew he would guess right because he knew my worries.
“I know you will get it."
“She and her friend came to me o.. After church was dismissed.
“What did they do?”
He asked, curious.
“Bro, they were just saying different rubbish I can't even say with my mouth. Saying, "I was sweet.." This.. That..”
She went ahead to ask, “Hope I saw the message sent to me”.. I was really shocked by her friend. You won't believe what she said.
“Tell me”
He replied, kind of laughing.
“She said that she had heard all about me, and she would love to test me… I was short of words bro.”
“This is getting serious o Chad.”
“Come visit me, let's discuss more."
Richard said.
“I would actually love to come know where you live. I will tomorrow
“Alright bro”
He replied and sent me his address.
I got there the next day, and he welcomed me warmly.
We walked up to his room.
He offered me a drink.
We sipped gently and had discussions regarding what I told him the day before.
We also had other discussions.
As we discussed, Richard started acting strangely.
Immediately, some two feminine men stormed into the room and had the door locked.
