Chapter 14

It felt like my whole world was suspended and it was just the two of us in it. The more he ignored me, the more I missed him. I wish he could listen to my heartbeat and decipher what it says.

I knew i felt something for him. It was different from what i felt with Ken. I was always happy to talk to him, my heart beats faster when he was close to me and I laughed to even his silliest joke.

Even though he claimed not be angry at Bola's outburst at the restaurant, it's been a week and he had kept his distance. He was always busy to talk and gave excuses on every available chance of meeting.

Bola didn't see anything wrong with what she did and Ken had agreed. I was bemused and we ended up creating a spectacle at our last hang out.

Bola you have never been so embarrassing but l for the first time i am highly disappointed in you, I said not minding how loud i was.

She rolled her eyes and stuck her fork into her food, not acknowledging my outburst. She took her drink and took a sip and when she finally saw i wasn't going to stop starring at her without she giving a reply. She finally talked.

Mikun, what the hell is your problem huhn? Whats your problem? You have been acting like a crazy a woman over boy. You should be ashamed of yourself ! She shouted back, her voice louder than mine whilst she gesticulated with her hands.

You don't treat a human like that. That was really low of, really low. I retorted, not backing down from the heated argument.

And that was why you left us to follow that fool, said Ken, who had been pressing is phone all along.

I was enraged and my eyes got a bit teary because i couldn't hold the gaze Ken tore at me. I couldn't find the words, instead i sunk in my chair speechless.

Bola,let's leave here,Ken said. I watched them both sauntered towards Ken's car. He had brought his after the stunt i pulled on them yesterday.

We haven't talked since then. So i was in my bed room crying over losing my friends and my lover who doesn't know he was one.

I was standing in front of mama Yinka store, there was no one. No sign of her or the charcoal she used in roasting her corn. The place was empty. I saw a lady selling beverages, so I parked my car and moved closer to her.

She made me realise mama Yinka husband died three days ago, he was in car accident. I felt bad about not knowing what had been happening with Yinka, so i begged the woman to show me to their house since she said it was close.

After some minutes,we were in front of small house, the compound was like a linear settlement with small houses on both sides. A particular house with more people drew my attention. Then i saw Mama Yinka, her face was swollen from tears. She didn't recognise me at first, she thanked me while i sat on a small stool. While i survey the rest of the compound hoping to see Yinka.

I finally saw him.
And it wasn't a pleasant meeting
