๐ซ๐ December Rush Chapter Three:
โYou see the type of friends you have? Just listen to the name of a normal human being.โ My aunt commented.
โThat is the name we gave him a long time ago when we were still kids.โ I spoke.
โWhy?โ
โBecause he was very brutal. He used to beat other children all the time. In fact, most children were afraid to cross him.โ
โThat is exactly what I am talking about. He doesn’t sound like a good person to me.โ
โDon’t worry, aunt. The name might have survived over the years but his brutality has since evaporated. I am sure he is a good man now.โ
โIf you say so. Anyway, he left a phone number. He said you could use it to call him.โ
I collected the number from my aunt, went into my bedroom and called him. The first call didn’t receive any answer, and so did the second, the third and the fourth. On the fifth try, I was about to stop the call when he answered. He was very happy to hear from me again. We talked briefly and promised to meet the following day at a local village palm wine joint.
The next day, around afternoon, I went to our meeting place to see him and met him arguing politics with some old village folks. I walked in smiling and greeted everyone. As soon as he saw me, he got up from his chair and embraced me. We abandoned the old men, got two chairs and sat some distance away from everyone.
โMadam, please get us two glasses of palm wine.โ He called the lady who ran the place.
โSo, how have you been?โ I asked him.
โI have been good bro. And you, where have you been all this while.โ
โEverywhere and nowhere.โ I told him.
โYeah, I am sure you left traces of yourself everywhere you went.โ He laughed.
โWhat are you talking about?โ
โHow do you think I knew you were in town?โ He asked.
โCompletely by chance.โ
โWrong, I heard about the commotion you caused on Christmas day. I heard you caused two girls to fight. You haven’t changed, have you?โ He smiled.
โOh! That? Forget those girls. They are village champions. I have a better girl now.โ
โOf course, you do. I have faith in you.โ
โWhat is your problem now, Naked. Leave me alone.โ
โEbuka, I don’t have any problem. I am just wondering why amongst all the girls in this village, you chose to date Cominash. That Malta Guinness.โ
โWhy do you call her that?โ
โHer size, bro. That short and fat girl is the one you chose to date.โ He laughed.
โHey! You have to watch your tongue, okay? Body shaming is something I can’t stand from anyone. That is a very despicable thing to say about a fellow human being.โ I was annoyed.
โMy friend, get out. Just say that you are trying to protect your babe.โ
โCominash? She is not my babe. It is all over now, but that doesn’t mean I will allow you ridicule her.โ
โAlright, I have heard. I won’t talk about your girl again.โ He laughed.
I was about to respond when the owner of the place came to our table, two glasses of palm wine in her hands. She put the glasses gently on our table and left. Like most of the women who owned such businesses, she was thickset and had a broad behind. As she swaggered away, Naked looked at the way she rolled it and licked his lips.
โWhy do you look at her like that?โ I asked.
โBoy, she got it.โ He spoke tapping me on the shoulder.
โWhat? That woman is old enough to be your mother.โ I was shocked.
โSo what? I think I like her.โ
โYou are attracted to older women?โ
โKind of, but not everyone of them. Just ones that are as endowed as her.โ He smiled.
โNo doubt you gave your number to my uncle’s wife. I am sure you know who my uncle is. Back off from my uncle’s wife if you know what is good for you.โ
โHahahahaha! My friend, shut up. I don’t have eyes for your uncle’s wife.โ
โBetter.โ
After about two hours, we left the place and promised to meet again as soon as we could. As we walked away. He removed his phone and called someone. They talked for a while and the someone who appeared to be a female, agreed that they should meet the following day. When the called dropped, I asked him who it was but he told me to mind my own business, but I insisted. So, he decided to tell me.
โWell, it’s a girl I met on my way to the village. She is very beautiful. We haven’t met since we got back. So, we plan on meeting tomorrow.โ He spoke.
โWow!! What is her name? Her name must be as beautiful as her face.โ I said excitedly.
โWhat is your problem? What do you want to do with her name?โ
โNothing, I was just asking.โ
โWell, her name is not important to you. So, forget about it.โ
โAlright, if you say so, but don’t forget that it is a small town. I am just making sure that we don’t encroach in each other’s territories.
That evening, while I was alone in my bedroom, I texted Rose on WhatsApp.
โHi Ebuka.โ She replied.
โHow are you, Rosy. I know it’s not three days yet. So, I am not expecting any response from you. I am just calling to greet.โ
โThat is alright. How have you been yourself?โ She asked.
โI am good, it is just that I miss you.โ
โAlready?โ
โYes.โ
โAlright, don’t worry. You know we still have two days to go before our next meeting. So, be patient.โ
โAlright, I will and I hope by then, you will have good news for me.โ
โDefinitely.โ
Late that night, as I laid on my bed alone, I thought of Naked. I wondered the girl he was talking about. A thought came to me that it might be Rose, but I quickly shifted that thought away. I didn’t think that would be possible.
The village was getting boring. I had broken up with Chancele and Cominash. Rose was still to get back to me with her decision. Life was getting boring. I still had two days to go before meeting her. How would I spend the coming days? After a careful thought, I decided that I would go see Cominash and make up with her temporarily. I couldn’t put all my eggs in one basket. I preferred Cominash because Chancele’s brother had warned me to stay away from her sister.
The following day, in the afternoon, I unblocked Cominash and texted her. She replied immediately. It was like she was waiting for my text.
โWow!! Ebuka, you texted me.โ She wrote.
โWhat is the meaning of that? Have I not been texting you?โ I asked.
โYou have, but I noticed that you blocked me.โ
โCan you blame me for that? You brought your mother to my house to embarrass and disgrace me in front of everyone, in front of my uncle’s wife. What did you expect me to do?โ I was trying to turn the table.
โI am sorry about that. I know you were very angry that day. I tried to text you later to apologize but I realized that I had been blocked. I am truly sorry for my mother’s actions. The whole thing was her idea, not mine.โ
โAnd the fighting? Was it your mother’s idea too?โ I asked, claiming to be angry.
โNo, but Ebuka, you betrayed me. You cheated on me. I was so shocked when I found out that you had another girl.โ
โWhich other girl?โ
โChancele, of course. That stupid girl. What does she have that I don’t have, Ebuka. Tell me so that I can make up.โ
โI am not dating her. I mean I was not dating her. She is the one who has been forcing herself on me.โ
โAre you sure?โ
โYes, she has been throwing herself on me. I have never had anything to do with her.โ I lied.
โThen, why was she behaving like you guys had something going?โ
โIt’s because she had been giving me some petty cash, that is why. You know her father is a rich cocoa farmer.โ
โSo, if you needed money, why didn’t you tell me. Have you ever asked me of anything, and I refused?โ
โNo, but I didn’t just want to bother you. You know I love you so, very much, and I didn’t want to stress my baby.โ
โAwwwn!! That is so sweet of you. Please, don’t be angry with me again. You know I thought you and that foolish Chancele had something going and that was why I reacted without thinking. Please, forgive me.โ
โAlright, I have forgiven you, but you need to prove to me that you are really, really sorry about your actions.โ I spoke.
โAny way you want, I will prove. How do you want me to prove, just tell me and consider it done.โ She was very desperate.
โAlright, I needed some money to spend because my parents haven’t sent me money yet. So, I borrowed fifty thousand from my uncle’s wife. She wants her money back. I would be happy if you can help me with the money.โ I lied once again.
โIs that all?โ
โYes, that is all.โ
โAlright, I will give you. How do you want it? Should I send it through MoMo?โ
โNo, I want it in cash. I will come to your house tonight and get it.โ
โWhat? Do you want my parents to kill me. You cannot come to our house after all that has happened.โ She was alarmed.
โDon’t worry, I am not a fool. When I say I am coming to your house, I am not saying that I am coming to walk right through the front door. I will come behind your house and hide behind your kitchen. I will then, flash you. Once you see my flash, you will come and give me the money. Is that okay by you?โ
โYes, that is a perfect plan. We see tonight, then.โ
When she went offline, I smiled to myself. Look at this mumu, I thought to myself. According to her, I love her. Anyway, let her keep dreaming. Tonight, I would go and collect my cool fifty thousand. That is the money I would be spending on Rosy on New Year Day. Cominash could continue remaining dull and foolish, I didn’t care as long as she was giving me money.
That night, I went to the back of their house, flashed her and she came to meet me. After taking the money, she was about to leave when I stooped her.
โNot so fast na. Let me at least take one mop.โ I spoke.
โWhat? Here?โ She was surprised and amused.
โYes.โ
โAlright, make it fast.โ
She was wearing just a miniskirt. That made things easy because there was no time for preliminaries. I simply turned her around, pulled the skirt up, shifted her pants and got in from behind. As I started pounding away, she completely forgot that we were behind their house and started moaning.
โShhh!! You have to be silent.โ I rebuked.
โI am sorry, but I can’t help it.โ
We were still in the heat of it when we heard footsteps approaching where we were standing. Then a voice spoke.
โCharis, where is that your stupid sister, Cominash. I thought you said she came to the kitchen.โ It was her mother.
โYes, Mum. I saw her going behind the kitchen.โ Charis replied.
โBehind the kitchen? At this time? What is sheโฆanyway, let me go and check what she is doing there.โ
I froze.
