Story Of Addition (Love Story) - Season 1 - Episode 101

She sobbed as she felt my hands around her shoulder. The tears in her eyes increased. I wanted to say something but I dint know what to say her. Telling her sorry; would definitely add more pains to her.

I just sat down with her while stylishly using my hands to rub up and down her shoulder. We were like that for awhile when Chidinma broke the silence.

Chidinma: it’s almost 4pm Femi. I think I
should start.

Me: (smiling) okay Chidinma… normal lessons starts tomorrow. mind you: tomorrow is my appointment with Doctor Ayeni. We will go together: that’s if you don’t mind?

Chidinma: (smiling) no problem… we will go
together. Bidemi, do take care of yourself!
Greet Kikelomo for me (waved at Funmilayo).

Bidemi: okay

Chidinma left for her house. Funmilayo and I
just kept staring into each others eyes; not knowing what to do nor say. It was quite long that Chidinma left that Kikelomo entered the room. She dint even greet any of us.

Kikelomo: (serious tone) what are you doing
beside her Femi? I don’t think it’s Bidemi
that have a problem; I think it’s you. You kept
leading her into thinking that what she’s doing is the right thing. Just keep on leading her on; I have said my own and I will continue saying it….. and you Bidemi, what are still doing seating down? you better pack your things and let us go.

Bidemi did not even utter a word. She just
picked her bag and headed straight to the door.
Kikelomo followed her and they headed to the hospital as they ought to.

I was now left with Funmilayo. She just kept staring and smiling at intervals.

Me: what is it?

Funmilayo: (smiling) it’s only brother Segun
that I thought that likes girls. You…. (cuts her off)

Me: (smiling) I’m still not compared to Badoo.
He’s a bomb and he knows that himself.

Funmilayo: I know he’s good but I have not seen girls fighting over him in public.

Me: it’s Bidemi…. I just don’t know what I did to her? she loves me dearly that it scares me; even when I’m with her.

Funmilayo: can I ask you a question?

Me: sure…

Funmilayo: like I have said, it’s just a
question. Don’t get angry over it please.

Me: (thinking) okay

Funmilayo: have you slept with Bidemi?

Me: hanhan…. you are still young to be talking
about sleeping with someone or not. Okay… I
have not slept with her.

Funmilayo: I don’t believe you. If you have not actually done something like that to her; then she has no right to get so attached to you. With what she did the other day and today; I think she can kill because of you.

I kept quiet for awhile and reasoned with what Funmilayo said. If truly I have slept with her; I would have being indebted to her forever. She won’t even allow me to talk with any ladies at all (including my mum and Funmilayo). I tried convincing Funmilayo about not making love to her but she dint believe me.

I decided to let the case rest by telling her to cook rice for me. She headed to the kitchen and
I dialled Motunrayo’s number. She picked after like 3 beeps.

Motunrayo: hello Femi… I’m sorry for not making it today and not calling to inform you.
My dad asked me to do some things and I
couldn’t get it done on time.

Me: it’s nothing jare… I’m missing you. I feel
like hearing your voice and that’s why I called.
I said some interesting words to her and she
kept giggling at the end of the other phone. She promised to see me tomorrow. I looked
forward in seeing her tomorrow. I ended the phone with a smile on my face.

Motunrayo can come over now; at least I
won’t be bothered by the Adeboye’s for now. I was still thinking how I’m going to invite her over with Chidinma still coming
tomorrow when a message tone beep on my phone.

I checked it. It’s First bank credit alert. I
hurriedly checked the message.

It’s an alert of N300k and it’s sent by Adedoyin. I connected a call to her and she picked.

Adedoyin: hello Femi.. I hope you are doing fine now?

Me: (pretending by yawning) yes: I’m much
okay now. The message tone on my phone
woke me up. Thanks for sending me money. I really appreciate it .

Adedoyin: (giggles) it’s nothing. I’m just concerned about your well being. It’s good to know that you are fine.

Me: (smiling) thank you dear. What about
Sarah? Is she not with you?

Adedoyin: no… actually we were together a couple of hours ago before she went to her husbands place. oops, hope she told you that she’s still attached to her husband.

Me: (smiling) yes: she did. What about her proposal?

Adedoyin: it seems both of you have a lot of things together. I never expected her to tell you such things.

Me: (sounding confused) how do you mean?

Adedoyin: it’s something that she ought to keep to ourselves; besides it’s not as if you can help her situation.

Me: (voice saddens) okay.. I now understand
you. It’s supposed to be just business as usual. That’s a very harsh things to say.

Adedoyin: I dint mean it that way Femi. I know that you are very caring but I just did not
expected her to divulge things that deep to you.

Me: (unhappy voice) it’s nothing… it’s not as if I can help her. What do I even have to offer her? Nothing! Your point is clearer now.

She was about to say something but I ended the call rudely before her words starts forming phrases or clauses. She called back like three times before I eventually picked her call.

Me: hello..

Adedoyin: why do you have to end the call on me like that?

Me: my… my airtime got finished.

Adedoyin: and you have to wait for the third time before picking up. You surprised me.

Me: (voice raised) I just don’t want to talk with you for now.

Adedoyin: (voice calm) so it’s because of Sarah that you don’t want to talk with me.

Me: don’t bring Sarah into this. She’s not even aware of what’s going on right now.
It’s just between you and I. From now on, I will stop asking of Sarah from you. If I want to ask her anything: I have her number and I will call her.

Adedoyin: (low voice) so you like Sarah more than me?

Me: if I want to go by what you said: I don’t
like anyone of you asides doing business with her.

Adedoyin: (voice shaking) you are taking it to far Femi….

Me: (Funmilayo enters) I have to go now. My sister just brought in my food; I want to eat and take my drugs.

Adedoyin: okay… tell me you love me.

Me: ooh, my little sister is here now.

Adedoyin: if truly you want me to believe
that’s your little sister, just tell me you love
me or say my name as you ends the call.

Me: (staring at Funmilayo) I love you Adedoyin.

Adedoyin: (giggles) love you too (ends the call)

I looked at Funmilayo and I was not surprised when she asked me who was Adedoyin?

Me: (smiling) she is just a very naughty friend.
She wants to know if I’m truly with you.

Funmilayo: okay… just take it easy with your
female friends, they are getting too much now.
Adedoyin again (now smiling)

She was not really convinced: but who cares anyway? I devoured the food and I la!d down my head to rest. Funmilayo walked out of the room with the empty plate. I yawned.

I’m feeling sleepy. I looked at my phone and puts it on silent. I slept off. I woke up around 8pm in the evening. As expected, missed calls on my phone. I placed the phone under the pillow and I went to the living room. I met my parents with Funmilayo all seated there. My parents asked about my health.

Me: I’m very fine now. Funmilayo can go to
school tomorrow. Chidinma can babysits me
tomorrow.

Mummy: okay, that’s very good.

My dad gave me N5000: incase I needed to buy
anything. I collected the money and thanked
him like I really needed the money. I sat with them and we chatted on family issues.
