9th act of betrayal

Life began for me all over again and this time i made new resolutions and promised myself to keep to them i committed myself to church and even became a worker in church just to ensure i didnt fall into temptation again. I had one or two christian brothers who thot i was the chosen one for them FOOLS IN SHEEP CLOTHING! i wasnt going to be fooled by all this christian madness i thot i would rather be with an unbeliever than with all these hypocrites.




well time went by made one or two trips to kano to check what was going on and made my way back only to meet my long lost Femi at the airport he had grown bigger and he looked finer only that he seemed so different he was so happy to see me and vice versa we had lost touch for a while. we exchanged nos and promised to call each other. Femi kept to his promise he called me and thats how we became pals again, he visited me, we went out on dates and seemed to be crazy bout each other. He asked me to be his girlfriend and grow in love i thot that was cool and was down with it but i had a problem femi's phone was always ringing and he seemd to be whispering alot of times when i asked he would say its my sister or my aunt or my mother i just wasnt comfortable with it one bit.





Time went by femi and i drew closer and became each others soul mates his family liked me especially his dad who thought i was a rare gem his mother had only met me once she was always in and out of the country on business trips he was the the third son and her favourite. He was already talking marriage and even though i trusted him Joshua experience just couldnt get out of my head so i told him to wait till i was ready. Besides he was going for a programme in the USA for about a yr how was i sure he wasnt going to leave me for those yanki girls. so i just let the marriage issue die oh





femi and i had mad fun and i often wondered why we never really dated anyway the d-day came and he had to travel to Yanki for his programme he was also a citizen. I cried my eyes out and thot i was losing him forever but he continued to promise he was going to come back for me blah blah blah! like i couldnt travel habi idoit!




Before he left i had already started working with a bank, so when he left i put all my energy and emotions into the bank like it was owned by my father! Femi kept to his words he called religiously. We kept late nights talking endlessly on the phone bout everything ang nothing gave him detailed informatiuon about every stupid thing. It was fun but i had my reservations i didnt like love across the sea, but i was willing to give it a go!



5months after femi left his calls reduced he started giving excuses he had so much to do he had to work, pay bills do this do that! oneday i told him " no be by force to stay in another mans counrty and be suffering if u cant cope come back home" that made him angry he dropped the phone on me and didnt call for two straight weeks and when i called it went to voice mail i was furious and angry. I visited his home his dad only assured me all was well but i didnt trust anyone. things didnt get better between us when he called he was nasty and unpleasant i was getting fed up and started thinking of calling the whole thing of which i did but then he called and begged and begged and i agreed but in my heart i felt nah this aint gona work.




Went for church service one sunday after the close of service i met an old school mate of mine he was with his friend Tokunbo he intorduced us, he hinted his friend liked me i was polite but not interested the guy was good looking no doubt but men i had too many issues to add another one to it. he gave me his card which i binned and promised to call which i never did.


I saw him again in church the following sunday he seemed to come to church because of me so i thot, because immediately after the service he was practically running after me. Anyway he accused me of not calling and insisted i gave him my no which i did reluctanlty, before i got home that day he had called me like 5times the guy was desperate, all nah runs!




We became friends and we talked alot he was still in a realtionship he was trying to get out of cause he felt he and the girl werent just jellying, he was trying to get out of it but his folks were mad about the girl they felt she was a good innocent girl blah blah from what he told she was still a virgin my gosh that was great news! RUBBISH! Anyway he told me he liked me i liked him too but told him about femi but never told him we were dating. Infact i didnt say much about him.



I visited his house once and got a very cold reception from his folks i immediately knew why it was because of the other girl not because i wasnt good but they wanted to see their son with only one person and that was the other girl, wetin concern me with all these madness!



Anyway Tokunbo and i started dating and he somehow sorted himself out with the other girl she cursed and cursed and cursed to make matters worse they worked in the same office i wasnt bothered one bit. Femi was still misbehaving but i cared less, my dad didnt like the fact that tokunbo was visiting too often my mum felt nothing she refused to say anything.


Tokunbos parents didnt like me and they never hid that from me i on the other hand was just crazy and hoping my life would get sorted out.



But you see no matter how carefree anyone is the truth is we all have a deeper conscience deep within. femi started calling more often and things started getting better between us infact he seemed to be calling when i was with tokunbo and i always had to lie i didnt understand why i was playing games i guess just didnt want to put my eggs in one basket i couldnt handle another heartache so i thot.





Tokunbo and i had already started sleeping together and all the church demos went out of the door, we started arguing more often he was stingy, selfish, cruel and sturborn the guy was so proud of himself , the love making sucked but i still didnt leave him oh i just didnt. Then i deceided to test him i told him about Donald and the abortions not just one abortion this time he told me it was my past and told me he also had secret to tell me too. I was curious which secret man dey get? But yes he did have a secret Tokunbo was once a cult memeber and had killed innocents peeps before, he asked me to keep it a secret and i likewise told him it was his past. But men i begin dey rethink oh if i annoy this one he no go kill me one night? Abeg oh!.



The fights we were having was becoming unbearable i guess i was liking him more than i imagined so every little thing he did got to me things i over looked before i couldnt anymore oh it was becoming something else. His birthday came i spent more than 30k on his gifts we seemed to have a good time that night we made love which sucked as usual, after much said and done he told me he didnt think we were meant for each other that it was all over the night of his birthday after he had collected my gifts and slept with me. I knelt down and begged this skinny man oh lailai he said no. Days upon days i heard nothing from him my friends called to ask what went wrong he said nothing. well i wiped my tears and consoled myself i still had my femi, only for me to miss my period again! i must have been cursed femi was to arrive next month! this was going to be one hell of a reunion oh!
