Tochi (short story) - Season 1 - Episode 3

☆☆☆☆

I got up to a warm meal of indomie prepared by my brother. We both sat on the bed while our two lodge mates kossi and Emeka sat on the rug, we surrounded the steaming food dished out in a large saucer. I was really moody as i did more staring at the food than i ate it. All of a sudden, my brother laughed and turned to me “Guy which level nah. How you go dy sleep, dy call baby and dy smile like mumu at the same time, nawa you o.”..

I looked at him and hissed. Emeka and kossi were visibly trying to suppress their laughter. I was weak and fuming inside at the same time. I thought to myself “so all these perfect romance was just one stupid afternoon dream”.

I put my fork into the food, rolled up some noodles and put it in my mouth, i swallowed hard. Staring across the room and softly asked


“But Martins why naa”

From the corner of my eyes i could see him raise his head up with a frown on his face aimed in my direction


“why what? He asked


“Why must you wake me up at that instant, you just disrupted my kiss with this chic and i no go forget am”

For some seconds he looked at me with a puzzled look on his face like he was trying to understand what i meant and then they all burst out laughing.

Kossi looked at me and said
“Oga no vex, go back to sleep and collect that kiss make we see if this indomie go do us” they laughed


“But seriously that girl must be nicki minaj, guy imagine how you were smiling and screaming my baby, imagine wetin for happen if you completed that kiss, maybe you would have scattered my pillow with your teeth” Martin said amidst laughter.

I got up, stretched myself to breaking point, hissed and walked outside, i could hear them eating and laughing as I left.
I walked outside the gate. The sun was still high up, i noticed a familiar figure walking past, i stared sheepishly at her as she walked down a bit and catwalked into a logde adjacent to mine.

Two guys passing by stared hard at me, one of them with a wicked grin on his face shouted in my direction. “Guy easy nah, no be only you see her”
I gave them this killer frown and noticed other passers-by stared at me like i was doing the Michael Jackson moonwalk. I stared back at myself and noticed how my reproductive organ was raised in an awkward angle


” yaaay, this Ada no go kill me for this world” i half screamed and ran inside..
