A story written by Priscasmart… If you missed part Two, read it HERE!!!
I immediately left for the snacks bar,and bought him a bottle of coca cola and meatpie,I wondered within myself “what are my coursemates going to think?that a girl like me could be subjected to such humiliation” I knew that this incidence was going to lower their respect for me. Femi started eating,and there was silence on our table I just sat there watching chuks and Femi,who were sitting opposite each other,
Femi was giving me a look that indicated his disappointment and this made me look away.on the other hand, Chuks had this soft look in his eyes, the kind of look that could comfort someone in distress. I looked towrds the area wher my coursemates sat, as soon as they say my eyes they all pretended to be doing somethign else,but I knew they were watching us.
Femi finished his meal and cleared his throat,he apologised to chuks and extended his hands for a handshake accompanied with a smile, chuks accepted his handshake and his apology.Femi got up from his seat,greeted Chuks and left without saying a word to me.
I tried to signal him to stop,but he didn’t respond. On a normal day I would run up to him and plead with him till he decides to change his mind,but this day was not a normal day,My coursemates were watching,they had already enjoyed the previous episode,I couldn’t afford to create another one.
Few minutes after Femi left,chuks and I decided to go home and so did our course mates. Chuks and I walked ahead of them since we all decided to trek,I apologised to chuks and he said it was okay,that the person I really needed to apologise to was Femi, I knew this but I just couldn’t figure out a way to and this made me really moody,but before we got to the schOol gate,i was already cracked up with laughter from chuks and his funny jokes.one thing that amazed me was how my course mates kept shut about what they just watched,not even one of them asked what went wrong, I had a feeling they were going to ask Chuks later. We said goodbye and retired to our various destinations for the evening.
I couldn’t rest when I got home,I kept dialing his number though he cut my call whenever he saw it,I knew this because whenever I dialled his number it read”number busy”…I didn’t give up,I kept sending apology text messages for two days,I even sent some christian messages just to make him know I was sorry,all of these were to no avail. Within those two days,I visited his place up to 4 times, his roomate kept saying he was not around.
My sorryness was turned into anger,so he has decided to ignore me right? I’ve done worse things and it didn’t take him so much time to forgive me,since he has decided to ignore me,I’ll ignore him too,he would be the one to beg for my calls,my pride got the better of me and i resolved to ignore him and anything that has to do with him until he comes back begging(which he usally does),afterall,i had tried. Unfortunately,I didn’t know there was more to come… I thought I could carry on well without Femi, I forgot all we had been through in our first year in school,if not for his assistance I wouldn’t have paid my school fees on time ,I decided to forget all the good times we had, all the times he had been there for me(too many to count). I let my pride overrule my love for him, I kept saying to myself”afterall,I’m pretty and intelligent almost any guy I like would want to go out with me, who does Femi even think he is?” These thoughts greatly affected my actions,I decided to pay no more visits and ignore his call and instead spend more time with chuks at least that way I could overlook the feeling of loneliness I was experiencing. unfortunately, I couldn’t really stick to my decisions, in fact no day passed without me dialing his number,I kept thinking of him (dnt blame me,the guy was my FIRST love,wats a girl gonna do?)
After two weeks of no contact,I jumped to the conclusion that Femi and I were through,I had to deal with a strange feeling of heartbreak accompanied with depression. It took me about a month to get over Femi,,I couldn’t bear the thought that I had lost femi,at some point I got worried but my pride wouldn’t let me dial his number again, “two weeks is enough, he has to be the one to call first” I kept saying this to myself. One week later, my phone rang and although I deleted Femi’s phone number,I still knew his phone number in my head. As soon as I saw his number,I felt joy inside and hurriedly picked his call. “My superman(I usually called him that),I said with a playful voice…hey! what’s up he replied with a very formal voice. immediately he said this,I knew he wanted to say something serious. “There’s something I would like to tell you,he said with a more serious tone
