Chapter Twenty
Timi
It 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,

NahlelaEverything between Timi and I had been going on smoothly. He finally told me everything I needed to know about himself and I was almost done with the article. We spent most of our free time together and we enjoyed every moment we had together. His family had one more week here but he instead spent most of his nights at my place. We were cuddling one morning in bed when I received a call from a private number. I picked it up and it was his mom. she apologised for not calling me since and she asked if I was free to meet up with her later. I didn’t want to meet his mom without telling him so I covered the speaker and asked if he was okay with it before accepting to meet her. I agreed to meet her at her house at twelve noon. She wanted to send a driver to come and pick me up but I told her not to worry that I knew the house.When I reached the Nkwain’s residence, Mary welcomed me and

TimiI opted to drive but dad insisted that Mr John drive instead. We rented a Sienna mini-van because just Aaliyah had four suitcases and as for mom, there was no need trying to count. She kept on saying the bags were hers and dads but we all knew dads’ tiny suitcase. We finished packing the bags and got into the car, dad sat at the front seat, mom and Aaliyah took the middle seat and I took the backseat. I took my phone out to tell Nahlela we were on the way already but she had sent me a text already.Nahlela: Good morning handsomeTimi: Good morning babeNahlela: Slept well?Timi: Yes, babe. I trust you did tooNahlela: YesNahlela: On your way already?Timi: Yes

TimiI went out of the club and looked for a quiet spot to call Nahlela. She picked up the call but she sounded sleepy, I asked if I woke her up but she said I didn’t. We chatted for a while and then I told her I that I wanted to go back and meet the others. we said our goodnights and then I dropped. I had spoken with her for just a few minutes but it was the highlight of my day. I decided that I may as well let go and enjoy myself instead of being a mood killer. Karen had a little too much to drink and she said she was feeling as to puke. Her friends wanted to take her out but I opted to take her out because I was tired already and I was looking for an excuse to leave. Immediately we reached her hotel room, she ran to the bathroom and started puking. I felt sorry for her because she really seemed weak and helpless. I took a bottle of water from the fridge and gave her to rinse her mouth

NahlelaI woke up before my alarm rang. I tried sleeping back but my eyes were clear so I took my phone and started going through social media. I checked Facebook and twitter but they had nothing new. Just the same old jokes that resurfaced at least four times a year. I checked Instagram and there was nothing interesting there so I decided to check snapchat. I was going through people’s stories when I stumbled on a video of Timi. He was sleeping on a chair and a girl in a tiny lace nightie was taking the video. Then she had captioned it with something about him being so cute when he is asleep. I screen recorded it and took screenshots of the two pics of him she posted. At that moment, I really didn’t care if snap chat snitched on me because I was really pissed off.It was a Saturday and work for me was optional. I had planned on going but now I was in no mood.
