My Life - S01 E15 (Story Episode)

Read Story: SEASON 1 EPISODE 15

TOLA'S POV:

Every single one of our choices had a way of spiking a different route in our life whether positive or negative and had a way of doing a great deal on us–no matter how I needed to convince my self I knew what I was doing with Steve was morally wrong and I was putting him in a corner he dint want to be — I always felt everyone has their garbage but I couldn’t help pity for him, I felt his was worse–going up from a tough background he had just hardwork, talent and discipline to rely on–and suffering heartbreak from in such a manner was capable of shattering one’s life …

I was hearing whispers outside my door and it was becoming way too audible like someone was having a misunderstanding with another but I thought Dad was sleeping, Nife should be too and Steve has left to his room or was he standing by the door talking to himself..

I was at the door already when I heard Nife and Steve having an argument, Nife was asking him what he was doing coming out from my room but why did I have this feeling that her voice was more of a pained tone that felt betrayed and jealous– was Nife hitting on Steve and I dint know ? No way, I would have discovered already ..i felt she was just being suspicious and over protective .. I was about going back to bed as I heard them whisper goodnight but I was halted in my tracks immediately I heard what Nife said next :

NIFE : what is that on your pants ? — I quickly racked my brain as I was trying to come with a brilliant idea to save me and Steve from this mess.. Yes, I just know what to do ..

*****************************

NIFE : Steve, I’m trying my best not to draw any conclusion, but your silence is not giving much options

STEVE : Okay, actually its —-

TOLA :[interrupting him before he exposes himself]Steve, you’re still here right ? abi you want me to pour you water again and scream you peeped on yourself [she said it mockingly as she holding a plastic water bottle]..

STEVE : |Understanding the whole scenario, he played along–putting both hands to cover his g---n as he began to mutter nooooo– amid smiles|

TOLA : Oya run along and tell Uncle Joe tomorrow that i was sleeping when you came over [ she had heard him lie about coming to give her some work from Uncle Joe]

STEVE : [He knew she was probably by her door all this while] okay -o but me I no Sabi lie

He walks away ********

TOLA : [turns to look at Nife who was watching their drama all this while ] Nife, ain’t you going to bed and how cold you imagine that in your mind and you accused that poor boy in such a way ?

NIFE :[ she was already feeling guilty] I’m really sorry, I dint know what came over me; will you help me apologize to Steve ?

TOLA : [laughs] I’m sure Steve doesn’t have anything against you .. just rush to bed now
[she was about leaving when she turned back ] Nife, is there anything going on between you and Steve that I need to know ?

NIFE : [feeling uncomfortable and nervous at once] no, how can you say such now.. goodnight sis

VIVIAN : Stalkers stalk people they have a connection with …[ smiling] are you having feelings for him ?

MICHELLE : [groaning] VIVIAN?!!! no.. I’m not stalking him .. I’m just trailing him ..thats it

VIVIAN : okay but remember I have always seen this scenario in movies, don’t you need to focus on Stanley instead of hurting someone else

me, Dean, Sammy and Nife were already in the school field along with alot of our students, the crowd was much that one could easily get lost and haven’t seen Nelly or Tola sef …
