π«π December Rush Chapter Three:
βYou see the type of friends you have? Just listen to the name of a normal human being.β My aunt commented.
βThat is the name we gave him a long time ago when we were still kids.β I spoke.
βWhy?β
βBecause he was very brutal. He used to beat other children all the time. In fact, most children were afraid to cross him.β
βThat is exactly what I am talking about. He doesnβt sound like a good person to me.β
βDonβt worry, aunt. The name might have survived over the years but his brutality has since evaporated. I am sure he is a good man now.β
βIf you say so. Anyway, he left a phone number. He said you could use it to call him.β
I collected the number from my aunt, went into my bedroom and called him. The first call didnβt receive any answer, and so did the second, the third and the fourth. On the fifth try, I was about to stop the call when he answered. He was very happy to hear from me again. We talked briefly and promised to meet the following day at a local village palm wine joint.
The next day, around afternoon, I went to our meeting place to see him and met him arguing politics with some old village folks. I walked in smiling and greeted everyone. As soon as he saw me, he got up from his chair and embraced me. We abandoned the old men, got two chairs and sat some distance away from everyone.
βMadam, please get us two glasses of palm wine.β He called the lady who ran the place.
βSo, how have you been?β I asked him.
βI have been good bro. And you, where have you been all this while.β
βEverywhere and nowhere.β I told him.
βYeah, I am sure you left traces of yourself everywhere you went.β He laughed.
βWhat are you talking about?β
βHow do you think I knew you were in town?β He asked.
βCompletely by chance.β
βWrong, I heard about the commotion you caused on Christmas day. I heard you caused two girls to fight. You havenβt changed, have you?β He smiled.
βOh! That? Forget those girls. They are village champions. I have a better girl now.β
βOf course, you do. I have faith in you.β
βWhat is your problem now, Naked. Leave me alone.β
βEbuka, I donβt have any problem. I am just wondering why amongst all the girls in this village, you chose to date Cominash. That Malta Guinness.β
βWhy do you call her that?β
βHer size, bro. That short and fat girl is the one you chose to date.β He laughed.
βHey! You have to watch your tongue, okay? Body shaming is something I canβt stand from anyone. That is a very despicable thing to say about a fellow human being.β I was annoyed.
βMy friend, get out. Just say that you are trying to protect your babe.β
βCominash? She is not my babe. It is all over now, but that doesnβt mean I will allow you ridicule her.β
βAlright, I have heard. I wonβt talk about your girl again.β He laughed.
I was about to respond when the owner of the place came to our table, two glasses of palm wine in her hands. She put the glasses gently on our table and left. Like most of the women who owned such businesses, she was thickset and had a broad behind. As she swaggered away, Naked looked at the way she rolled it and licked his lips.
βWhy do you look at her like that?β I asked.
βBoy, she got it.β He spoke tapping me on the shoulder.
βWhat? That woman is old enough to be your mother.β I was shocked.
βSo what? I think I like her.β
βYou are attracted to older women?β
βKind of, but not everyone of them. Just ones that are as endowed as her.β He smiled.
βNo doubt you gave your number to my uncleβs wife. I am sure you know who my uncle is. Back off from my uncleβs wife if you know what is good for you.β
βHahahahaha! My friend, shut up. I donβt have eyes for your uncleβs wife.β
βBetter.β
After about two hours, we left the place and promised to meet again as soon as we could. As we walked away. He removed his phone and called someone. They talked for a while and the someone who appeared to be a female, agreed that they should meet the following day. When the called dropped, I asked him who it was but he told me to mind my own business, but I insisted. So, he decided to tell me.
βWell, itβs a girl I met on my way to the village. She is very beautiful. We havenβt met since we got back. So, we plan on meeting tomorrow.β He spoke.
βWow!! What is her name? Her name must be as beautiful as her face.β I said excitedly.
βWhat is your problem? What do you want to do with her name?β
βNothing, I was just asking.β
βWell, her name is not important to you. So, forget about it.β
βAlright, if you say so, but donβt forget that it is a small town. I am just making sure that we donβt encroach in each otherβs territories.
That evening, while I was alone in my bedroom, I texted Rose on WhatsApp.
βHi Ebuka.β She replied.
βHow are you, Rosy. I know itβs not three days yet. So, I am not expecting any response from you. I am just calling to greet.β
βThat is alright. How have you been yourself?β She asked.
βI am good, it is just that I miss you.β
βAlready?β
βYes.β
βAlright, donβt worry. You know we still have two days to go before our next meeting. So, be patient.β
βAlright, I will and I hope by then, you will have good news for me.β
βDefinitely.β
Late that night, as I laid on my bed alone, I thought of Naked. I wondered the girl he was talking about. A thought came to me that it might be Rose, but I quickly shifted that thought away. I didnβt think that would be possible.
The village was getting boring. I had broken up with Chancele and Cominash. Rose was still to get back to me with her decision. Life was getting boring. I still had two days to go before meeting her. How would I spend the coming days? After a careful thought, I decided that I would go see Cominash and make up with her temporarily. I couldnβt put all my eggs in one basket. I preferred Cominash because Chanceleβs brother had warned me to stay away from her sister.
The following day, in the afternoon, I unblocked Cominash and texted her. She replied immediately. It was like she was waiting for my text.
βWow!! Ebuka, you texted me.β She wrote.
βWhat is the meaning of that? Have I not been texting you?β I asked.
βYou have, but I noticed that you blocked me.β
βCan you blame me for that? You brought your mother to my house to embarrass and disgrace me in front of everyone, in front of my uncleβs wife. What did you expect me to do?β I was trying to turn the table.
βI am sorry about that. I know you were very angry that day. I tried to text you later to apologize but I realized that I had been blocked. I am truly sorry for my motherβs actions. The whole thing was her idea, not mine.β
βAnd the fighting? Was it your motherβs idea too?β I asked, claiming to be angry.
βNo, but Ebuka, you betrayed me. You cheated on me. I was so shocked when I found out that you had another girl.β
βWhich other girl?β
βChancele, of course. That stupid girl. What does she have that I donβt have, Ebuka. Tell me so that I can make up.β
βI am not dating her. I mean I was not dating her. She is the one who has been forcing herself on me.β
βAre you sure?β
βYes, she has been throwing herself on me. I have never had anything to do with her.β I lied.
βThen, why was she behaving like you guys had something going?β
βItβs because she had been giving me some petty cash, that is why. You know her father is a rich cocoa farmer.β
βSo, if you needed money, why didnβt you tell me. Have you ever asked me of anything, and I refused?β
βNo, but I didnβt just want to bother you. You know I love you so, very much, and I didnβt want to stress my baby.β
βAwwwn!! That is so sweet of you. Please, donβt be angry with me again. You know I thought you and that foolish Chancele had something going and that was why I reacted without thinking. Please, forgive me.β
βAlright, I have forgiven you, but you need to prove to me that you are really, really sorry about your actions.β I spoke.
βAny way you want, I will prove. How do you want me to prove, just tell me and consider it done.β She was very desperate.
βAlright, I needed some money to spend because my parents havenβt sent me money yet. So, I borrowed fifty thousand from my uncleβs wife. She wants her money back. I would be happy if you can help me with the money.β I lied once again.
βIs that all?β
βYes, that is all.β
βAlright, I will give you. How do you want it? Should I send it through MoMo?β
βNo, I want it in cash. I will come to your house tonight and get it.β
βWhat? Do you want my parents to kill me. You cannot come to our house after all that has happened.β She was alarmed.
βDonβt worry, I am not a fool. When I say I am coming to your house, I am not saying that I am coming to walk right through the front door. I will come behind your house and hide behind your kitchen. I will then, flash you. Once you see my flash, you will come and give me the money. Is that okay by you?β
βYes, that is a perfect plan. We see tonight, then.β
When she went offline, I smiled to myself. Look at this mumu, I thought to myself. According to her, I love her. Anyway, let her keep dreaming. Tonight, I would go and collect my cool fifty thousand. That is the money I would be spending on Rosy on New Year Day. Cominash could continue remaining dull and foolish, I didnβt care as long as she was giving me money.
That night, I went to the back of their house, flashed her and she came to meet me. After taking the money, she was about to leave when I stooped her.
βNot so fast na. Let me at least take one mop.β I spoke.
βWhat? Here?β She was surprised and amused.
βYes.β
βAlright, make it fast.β
She was wearing just a miniskirt. That made things easy because there was no time for preliminaries. I simply turned her around, pulled the skirt up, shifted her pants and got in from behind. As I started pounding away, she completely forgot that we were behind their house and started moaning.
βShhh!! You have to be silent.β I rebuked.
βI am sorry, but I canβt help it.β
We were still in the heat of it when we heard footsteps approaching where we were standing. Then a voice spoke.
βCharis, where is that your stupid sister, Cominash. I thought you said she came to the kitchen.β It was her mother.
βYes, Mum. I saw her going behind the kitchen.β Charis replied.
βBehind the kitchen? At this time? What is sheβ¦anyway, let me go and check what she is doing there.β
I froze.
