Chapter Sixteen
Nahlela
When Timi pitched me his ridiculous proposal or business arrangement or whatsoever at Chambo Masters, I got so angry and left. As I was stepping outside, a bike was just from dropping someone there so I took the bike and went home. When I heard a knock on the door, I thought it was one of my neighbours, so I opened the door without asking who it was. I was about slamming the door in his face but he blocked it with foot and then he let himself in. I wanted to unleash all my anger on him, I wanted to hit him, bite him, strangle and do anything and everything possible to inflict pain on him but I was normally not a violent person and most unfortunately, I didn’t even have the strength to.
As he stood there talking to me, all I wanted was for him to leave. He had seriously disrespected me and it hurt because he was someone I was starting to feel comfortable and even tru

TimiI had royally messed things up. From the way things were, I didn’t think Nahlela was going to forgive me anytime soon. The whole incident had made me realize how much she meant to me. We hadn’t known each other for long but I really wanted to be with her. I made up my mind that I wasn’t going to stop till she forgave me and I wasn’t going to rest till she accepted to be in a relationship with me.Who would have thought that I would loss my mind over a girl in this way? I had always had my way with girls. I didn’t chase them; I rolled with girls that knew the drill. No feelings and no emotional shit. Even when there was chasing, they chased me not the other way round. The only thing I had ever chased in my life was a football. Now I had to do the chasing. I meant it when I said Nahlela was not like most girls so I had to think out of the box.

NahlelaIt had been two weeks since I last saw Timi. I had not received any text or call from him and I wasn’t going to be the one to take the first step. I scrolled through our chats again and had that urge to text him but I decided against it. It had been like this for the past two weeks. Every day I was fighting with the decision of if I should text him or not. The cake he sent me was really delicious. The day we had lunch at his place, I think I had mentioned to him that my best type of cake was plain cake and I preferred butter icing. He really did pay attention to detail.Christmas was just a week away and I had to meet mom to make a list of the things we needed. Every year, mom and dad made a small barbecue part on Christmas night with close friends, relatives and neighbours, but this year they decided to host it on Christmas eve instead. I finally woke up from the bed and started pre

TimiVacation in Nigeria wasn’t a bad idea after all. Aaliyah had come up with a list of places she wanted us to visit. We went to the Lekki Leisure lake, Jos wildlife park, Port Harcourt Tourist beach, The Benin City National Museum, Tarkwa Bay and Terra Kulture. We entered the famous buses which Nigerians called “Danfo” and mom almost had a heart attack but Aaliyah and I were enjoying it way too much. We loved seeing her dramatizing. We had family time and bonded a lot. Honestly, I can’t remember the last time we had time as a family, just us with no outsiders. Mom complained about the strong pillows, old building and a lot of other things but dad asked her to relax and try to make the best out of it and she did. She even surprised us all by saying it was the best vacation she had ever had and she was definitely coming back to Nigeria for a getaway with her husband, no children invited.

TimiIt was Christmas eve and we were getting ready to go to the Samgena’s residence for the barbecue party. I was hoping that mom and dad won’t want to attend, but dad was looking forward to catching up and remembering the good old times with his old friend. Aaliyah initially refused to go but changed her mind at the end. Dad and I finished preparing and were waiting for mom and Aaliyah. Mom was a designer and she always insisted on looking like one. In fact, she always tried dressing up all of us, but I always managed to escape. Dad on the other hand had no choice because he always did everything his wife wanted. Aaliyah didn’t loathe the idea because mom always gave her fashionable dresses for free.The traffic on the way was too much. The road was filled with parents who were going back home from the market after doing last minute preparations, youths who wer

NahlelaI was surprised to see Timi in the kitchen. Even though I had told mom and dad that I had invited hi, I hadn’t. I was even more surprised when he said dad did because dad had not mentioned anything. Coincidentally, his sister was Kadmia’s course mate in the university; we really live in a small world. She tried pretending like she didn’t know me but I didn’t let her. I called her out on it and she finally accepted. I liked her already.For the whole night, I was socialising with guests and making sure they were okay but I kept on avoiding Timi. Even when I spoke to him, I was being formal. I even referred to him as “sir”. I knew it was driving him crazy but I didn’t care. At one point, a white lady whom I had never seen cornered me and complemented my dress. I thanked her and somehow, we started chatting. She told me that she was a designer and she said her daughter was even

TimiI didn’t expect Nahlela to say yes when I asked her to spend the day with me. I didn’t even expect her to reply my text initially. I called Jackson the gym manager and told him that I wanted the indoor pool for the day. I thought of decorating the place with rose petals and candles and all the shit girls loved but I decided not to. It was probably going to send Nahlela running towards the other direction and I never wanted that. By twelve, I was already at her place. I went up and knocked at her door. When she opened, the sight that welcomed me was a beautiful one. She was putting on camouflage bum shorts, with a white crop top and sneakers. On her hair, she had cornrows with her natural hair; no extensions. She looked prettier than before. Mo touch of makeup on her face but every part of it was well defined. This was not the first time I was seeing her in reveal

TimiI woke up when Nahlela and I were entangled in between the sheets but I managed to adjust without waking her up. She looked so beautiful and peaceful in her sleep, like a baby. She was completely naked and her body was enticing and inviting. I wanted to touch and suck her whole body starting from the crown of her head right down to the sole of her feet and of course I wanted to concentrate on some areas. The idea was tempting but I didn’t want to wear her out. When we made love for the first time, I noticed that she was extremely tight. I wanted to stop but she insisted that I go on. I asked her if it was her first time and she tried avoiding the question but I insisted till she finally told me that yes, it was. I wanted to stop but she still insisted. I didn’t mind waiting but when Nahlela sets her mind to something, she doesn’t rest till she accomplishes it. I wanted to talk about this when she woke up; she wasn&

NahlelaI had always been the girl who planned on losing her virginity on her wedding night but I met Timi and those plans went out through the window. When we were making out, he tried to slow things down but I didn’t let him. He asked me if I was sure and I said I was. He still tried taking things slow but I woke up and pulled him to the room. Maybe I had wanted this all along, because he was even on his way back when I opened my door and invited him in. I didn’t tell him that I was a virgin because I didn’t want him to stop. I knew that if I told him, he wouldn’t even touch me, but being the keen observer he was, he started figuring it out and I had no other option than to tell him. His hands were magical. He made me feel things in places I never ever imagined will be sensitive to touch.Having sex with him without defining our relationship was not a wise thing to do but at that point,
