| RUNAWAY LOVE ❤🏃 (A true story) |
My sister had caught me. How in the world did she know that I was inside, and with a woman? I hoped she had not shared that information with her veranda mates. I hated when someone figured me out. In my opinion, I ought to be the only one who figured people out.
"Sister, I am not at home." I texted back though I knew he would never believe me. That was selfish of me. She had just helped me to figure out how to get out of the mess I has just created. Instead of me to be thankful and appreciative to her, I had insteas lied to her.
I waited for her reply but it didn't come. I looked and Mimi and spoke.
"It's time to go now. Common, dress up." I ordered.
"What's your plan?" She asked. "You surely are not insinuating that we should walk through that door, are you?"
"No, we will be going through the window. So please, dress up and let's get out of here."
"Wait!! Did you say the window? So, I will be going through a window?!" She couldn't believe her ears.
"Quite spectacularly so, baby. Now dress up."
"What if I say I am not going anywhere?"
"In that case, let me tell you. Mimi, you are on your own."
"You cannot say that."
"But I have said that already. Remember, I am in my house. I can decide not to go out until tomorrow. But you, you have someone you are answerable to. Soon, your wild cat of a father will start looking for you."
I needn't say much. My message had already gone through. She hurriedly dressed up and came to the window where I was already standing, waiting for her. Very carefully, I helped her through the window and she landed safely on the other side. I also went through the window and met her outside.
I held her hand and we took a back cut that led to the main road. When we got to the main road, we separated. She started going home after giving me a peck. I waited until she had gone before leaving, too.
I walked casually home, hoping to make the guests on my veranda believe that I actually, was not home. While I was going home, I met the supermarket girl on the way. She was tired of waiting for me. She burst in to tears when she saw me.
"What is wrong with you, Rex? I was at your door all day and you were nowhere to be found. I called you several times, but you didn't pick. Where did you go to?"
"What do you mean by that kind of a question. Are you a policeman?" I asked rudely.
"No."
"Did we plan on meeting today?"
"No."
"So, why did you come. You think you can just come to my house like that without prior agreement, or at least a notification?"
"So, must I always call before coming to your house?" She asked.
"Yes, baby."
"I don't like it that way."
"Then, that is your business. Keep coming without calling me and you will keep staying at the veranda hopelessly."
"Okay, how about the money you promised me?"
"I will call you." I spoke and started walking away, abandoning her where she stood.
When I got home, Suzy, too, had already gone to their house. The only person I met was my elder sister.
"Sister." I feigned ignorance. "When did you come? You didn't tell me that you were coming. Why didn't you call me to say you are at my door?"
"I texted you. " She replied. "Check your phone."
I carried her bags and we went inside. She had come for her placement. So, she was going to stay for three months. That meant no fornication for me for three months.
It had been two weeks now since my sister showed up. Ever since she came I had been having a hard time meeting with either Mimi or Suzy. The only good thing was that my sister cooked constantly. So, my hunger had been satiated regularly. But I still wanted to satisfy the other hunger.
One night, I couldn't tell what happened, but it seemed Suzy had been busy all day. So, she had to bathe in the night. You know bathrooms in this Face me I face you houses. It's usually one bathroom for everyone.
When she passed in front of my door with a bucket in her hand, and nothing but a white towel around her chest, I followed. When she got to the back of the house, I made my intrusion known.
"What are you doing here, Rexo." She asked surprised.
"I want some." I answered.
"Some what?"
"You know na." I laughed.
"We can get caught. Someone could come behind here and walk in on us."
"No one is coming." I replied quickly, undoing my zipper.
I pulled the white towel she was having around her body and placed it on a flower plant. She understood what was going on and bent double, ready to receive me. We were at the risk of being caught. So there was no time to savour the feeling. The goal was just to release the tension and that happened in about five minutes time.
I did my zipper and went back to the front of the house, and just in time too. A minute more and I would have been caught. That is because as I went back to the front of my house, I bypassed my sister who was also coming behind to relieve herself. She looked at me and the look in her eyes told me that she suspected me.
For all the three months that my sister was with me, that was the game I played not just with Suzy, but also with Mimi until I finally got caught in a very spectacular way.
One evening, I noticed that Mimi was bathing inside the bath. I quickly went behind and knocked.
"It's occupied." She spoke.
"It's me, Mimi." I introduced myself.
"Bad man, Rexo. What do you want?"
"Just open na let me come in."
"I am afraid, Rex. We can get caught."
"We'll do it sharp sharp and no one will find out. I promise I won't take long."
She opened the door for me and the agreement was that it would be done hurriedly. Everything went as planned, but when it was time for me to leave, the lock of the door, which had been faulty for a while, refused to comply. We were stuck.
We struggled to open it to no avail. The situation was getting bad. Someone could come at any time and realize what was happening. After about forty minutes of trying, and by now we were sweating seriously, we heard the sounds of footsteps approaching. It seemed someone was coming to use the bath.
Someone coming to use the bath was a mixed blessing. On the one hand, that person would help us open the door from inside and hence, liberate us from the bondage that we had found ourselves in. But what if the person was Mimi's father or mother?
As the person approached we prayed that it should be a neighbour that we could coax into secrecy. It was like hoping for the best but expecting the worst. As the person came, she coughed. From the way her voice soumded, we were able to figure that it was a young female. Our hopes were raised.
The person reached the door, realized that the bath was occupied and was about to retrace her steps when Mimi called.
"Please, who is there? Please, open the door for me. We are stuck, I mean, I am stuck."
The person came back and effortlessly opened the door from outside. I froze when I saw who the person was.
It was Suzy, my love.
