The next day, after her boss and his wife had gone to work, and the other children of the house, including little Ngopi had gone to school, I went to see her. She was very happy to see me again.
That day, we talked about whole lot of other things and I came to realize that there was something that we shared together - love for books. We had a huge pile of books in our home library and I promised I was going to give her as many books as she wanted to read in her leisure time.
That evening, my friend, Eddy came visiting. Eddy was dating one of the ladies in that house opposite mine. He said he had come to see her.
"I didn't know you had a girlfriend here, Bro. Which one of them are you dating?" I asked.
"Why are you asking? Do you have any of them in your sights?" He asked laughing.
"Yes, that fair-skinned, chubby one with the fine face. I want to chat her. In fact, we are already moving towards that direction."
"Oh! That one? I know her, but mine is the shorter one. The one called Linda."
"I never knew you guys were dating. You see, when you have a girl in the neighborhood, it's good to tell your men in order to avoid clashes. Anyway, how do you intend to see her now? Her parents are home."
"Yes, I know that. But they always go out at night to have a good time. Once they leave, I will launch my attack."
Eddie and I waited until it was about 7:00 PM, and just as we had hoped, we saw the parents of the ladies leaving to town in their car. We hid behind a flower hedge in front of our compound until they left. As soon as the sound of the car died away, All three of the ladies left their house and came to our compound.
Solange, as the chubby one was called, came straight to see me. Linda went to my friend, Eddy while the third one, Harriet went to see her okada man boyfriend who had just pulled up.
"Hi Solange." I spoke happily. "I am happy to get to speak to you this evening."
"Me, too. How was your day?" She asked.
"Normal and how was yours?"
"Well, I finished my chores early. So, I had enough time to rest. How is your younger sister?"
"She went out with her friends." I replied. "Anyway, Solange, there is something I have to tell you."
"What is that?" She asked.
I had just recently watched Michael Jackson's Thriller. So, I had gotten some inspiration. I decided to use the lines Michael used to chat Solange.
"Solange, you know I like you, don't you?" I began.
"Yes, Phi."
"And I hope you like me the way I like you."
"Yes, Phi."
"Emm!! I was wondering if you'd be my girl."
That didn't go well with her. She told me that she was not ready for a relationship. In fact, she didn't want to date. She said she was hoping that we would just be friends, good friends. She didn't expect that it was going to turn out like that.
I tried to tell her that I meant no harm. I tried to make her see reason, but she refused to even let me speak, got angry and left.
For two days, we didn't talk to each other. Then, on the third day, in the morning, little Ngopi showed up once again with a letter from her. I received the letter happily and read it. In the letter, she was apologizing for her rantings and said she had finally accepted to date me.
I was very pleased with the developments. In my eyes, I was already imagining how she looked without clothes. I already saw myself feasting on her and I couldn't wait for night to come so that I could see her when her boss and his wife leave to town.
I wrote a reply to her letter and sent it back through our delivery guy, Ngopi. In the letter, I was requesting that we meet later that night when her boss must have gone out.
It was nighttime now and her boss was about to leave. Me, Eddy and the okada man were already hidden behind the thick flower hedge, waiting. As soon as the car left, Solange and the other girls came to see us.
I didn't care what Eddy and the other guy were doing. I just wanted to talk to Solange.
"I saw your letter." I told her. We were sitting at the veranda of our house.
"I saw your reply, too. But there is something I must tell you. I have accepted to date you, fine, but terms and conditions apply."
"How do you mean?" I asked.
"No sex."
"What? Why no sex?"
"Because I hate men." She spoke.
"You hate men? Why do you hate men? Is it because of your father and the way he treated you?" I was curious.
"Not really. I can't tell you the reason now."
I didn't want to push her. So, I decided to change the topic for the sake of peace. We talked about other things and about an hour later, afraid that her boss might be returning soon, she went back home."
After she had gone, I started thinking about the whole thing. Oh no! My plans had been bashed. All my fantasies were never going to come true. I was already imagining my self in between her fair and fresh laps. I was already imagining my hands on her large and plump bre@sts. Now, she had said no sex. How could I be in a relationship without sex. What was the use?
Anyway, she was not the first girl to tell me that. A few girls had told me that but we always ended up having sex finally. So, I decided that I would play cool while hoping for her to change her mind sooner or later though the chances were very slim
Two days later, her boss and his wife travelled. They were going to be away for four days. That was a perfect opportunity for me and my guys. Four days of fornication was no joke. I quickly relayed the information to my pal, Eddy, and he showed up that afternoon to see his babe, Linda, who had just returned from school.
Eddy told me that he would love to use my room for his operation that afternoon. Our house was a big house with about five bedrooms. However, all the rooms were empty except for the room that led to the garage. That room was originally meant to be a store room, but we had transformed it into a bedroom because it had a door that led directly out of the house.
I quickly agreed to borrow my room to Eddy to have his afternoon time fun with his babe. I agreed not because he was my friend, though that was a good motivation, too, but also because I wanted to watch small cinema that afternoon.
Our house didn't have a ceiling yet. It needed a ceiling and painting, too. Those were the only two things that were left. It was still a new building. Because it didn't have a ceiling, if you climbed up the roof, you could, of course, see what was happening in the next room.
So, as soon as Eddy nad Linda got into the room, and locked the door, I waited for about five minutes. Then, I went through the back door of the house, got to the living room and climbed on the rafters. I had to be careful so that they didn't know I was there. If they found out, my cover would be blown and I would miss my cinema.
As soon as I got on the rafters, I looked down on my bed and Eddy and Linda were lying there comfortably. Eddy wanted one mop but it seemed Linda was resisting. You know women and their chakara. They know very well that they would still finally release the thing. But they would first of all play hard to get in order for you to beg.
"Let me just take one mop noh." I heard Eddy say. His LGA was already hard.
"That was what you said last time and stayed forever." Linda complained.
"I know, but today will be different. I will do it sharp sharp and before you know it, we'll be done." He tried to convince her.
"Na so, how about that girl I saw you with yesterday? Why don't you go and take it from her?"
"She's not my girlfriend na. You are my girlfriend. See, you shouldn't be denying me this thing. It's my right and I shouldn't beg for it."
"Your right indeed!"
She finally accepted and as they started taking off their clothes, I got excited knowing that I was going to be watching live knacking for the first time since I became an adult, but my plans were ruined.
"Phi! Phi!!" I heard someone calling me. "Where has he gone to?"
It was Solange. It would have been embarrassing for her to see me perched high up on the rafters because I wanted to watch Eddy and Linda make out. So, I quickly climbed down from my high perch, almost injuring myself in the process. As I landed on the ground, Solange walked into the living room.
She looked at me suspiciously and asked me where Eddy and Linda had gone to. I told her that they were in my room, making out.
"What?! Under this sun?" She exclaimed.
"Yes, what's wrong with that?" I asked.
"That's how people do and give birth to albinos."
"Mumu!! There is no biological proof that procreation in the afternoon sun causes albinism." I told her.
The thought of Eddy and Linda making out as we spoke seemed to have gotten to her. So when I proposed that we go to one other empty room in our house she didn't hesitate. When we got to the room, we started kissing immediately.
She was wearing only a mini skirt. So, it was easy for my hands to roam free, and surprisingly, she didn't resist when I sent my hand under. When she didn't resist, my confidence level upped and I dragged her down on to the bare and was going to remove her pants when she held my hand.
"What's the matter?" I asked.
"I don't want it. I told you already that sex shouldn't and would not be involved in this relationship." She was firm.
"I thought you changed your mind?" I asked, disappointed
"When did I?"
"Okay, please, let me do it just this one time and I will never ask again." I begged.
"No."
"Okay, let me put the head, just the head."
"The head indeed. Soon, you would push the whole thing inside."
Vexed, I tried to apply force, but she pushed me violently, got up from the ground, adjusted her dress and stomped away. I sat on the floor of the room for a while, waiting for my LGA to go back down. After that, I went to the veranda of the house and at that same moment, Eddie and Linda were just walking out of my room.
Eddy walked to me, smiling.
"Boy!" He spoke. "Thank you very much. I will see you later."
"Don't talk to me." I replied.
"What?" He was confused.
"I said, don't talk to me."
"Why? What have I done?"
"You have gone and enjoy yourself and you are coming to smile with me." I mumbled.
"What did you say?"
"This man, leave me ya."
Realizing that I was in for talking, he went home. As he went, I realized that I had overreacted. It was not his fault that Solange refused me ebube dike. So, why should I have transferred my aggression to him?
For three whole days, Solange avoided me. I couldn't understand what I had done wrong. All I wanted was to make love to my girlfriend. So, why was she keeping me in the dog house?
On the fourth day, I managed to get her to talk to me. I asked her what I had done wrong.
"It's not about you, Phi. It's about me." She said in tears.
"What do you mean?" I asked, puzzled.
"I told you I hate men, right?"
"Yes, you did. Why?"
"It's because of something terrible that happened to me."
"Really? What was that?"
"Some years ago, while I still lived with my father, my friends visited me one day and invited me to club."
