Chapter Ten
It was a 40-plus minutes drive and we reached the mall, he told us were he was. We parked the car and headed for our rendezvous. We found him seated at Gigibonta with a cup of hot chocolate in his left hand, we exchanged our greetings and settled down. He then wave hand to the waiter, as he came Warren told us to make our orders. We all said what we wanted, shortly he brought and handed over to us. Warren was looking like somebody who was in a deep predicament.
''What's up man, you look terrible?'' I said to him.
''Uh...i...i..I'm okay man it's just that I had enough yesterday you know'' he said trying to fake a smile.
I smiled at him and said ''Oh yeah I see.''
Although I knew deep down he was concealing something and I made a parole to myself whatever it was he was hiding he's going to enunciate it to me. I've known him for over two decades so I was able to tell whichever state he was in. His phone rang and disturbed my tho
Chapter Eleven It was a long drive but we finally reached our destination, just at the gate we were told to stop and pay entrance fee before going inside; we did as asked and passed the gate. The only thing i could see was trees and tall grass, i began debating in my head is it a safari or what. And as if somebody somewhere was reading my mind.''Bobby?, have you been here?'' Warren asked.And before he could completely finished the sentence i respond ''No man, this will be my first time''.''Angel?'' he asked.''Me either''. he responded.Warren chuckles and said '' what do you guys do at your leisure time?''Everyone laughed including us whom he asked the question. We finally reached the main entrance, we parked the car and headed to the entrance, we presented our tags to the woman that welcomed us with a bright smile allover her face and told us her appellation was Veronica. She was in her thirties I a
Chapter Twelve We walked down the river to a quiet place where we could catch the fish peacefully. I could see there were other people also catching fish, others on canals, some on boats and others just on the side of the river. “Hey how much for the worms” I asked. “It all depends on how much of it you want” the boy said. He was in his mid teenage wearing a blue overall with gum boots and a weird haircut. Before him was a bucket full of worms. “So, how much is that cup?” I continued. “It's $15 for this one and $25 for this other one. So which one should I give you?” he asked. “Guys, which one should we get?” I asked. “I think the one for $15 will do” Angel said. “No man let’s just get the one for $25, I think it will be enough” Warren said. “Yeah that’s true” Bruce said. “Alright, $25 it is” I said. “Here you go. Though you guys look like you have never done this b
Chapter Thirteen“Guys is it true what you said earlier?” Kimberly asked.“What is that Kim?” April asked looking like someone who is eager to know.“About you guys I mean the time you have been together” she said.“Excuse me, is that what has been keeping you quiet all this time?” Jasmine said.“You know I have been thinking about it like maybe you just want me to feel welcome and all that” she continued.“No why would we do that?” Jasmine replied.“I don’t know” she said.“Personally, I have known Bobby and Angel for years now but these two ladies I just met them last night, just like we did to you” Shancie said.“But you look like you have been together for quite some time you know. Cause when I saw you last night, I could tell how you were laughing and having fun” she said with a gesture.
Chapter FourteenQuickly, auntie Veronica came over to where we were standing, holding a blue bucket with water and knives in it. She put down the bucket and gave us the knives.''Buy the way your ladies have gone on a Safari boat'' she said.''Alright, thanks ma'am''. Warren said.''And how was it sir?, Did you enjoy fishing? she said looking at me with a smile.I had no choice but to grin back at her and said nothing but nodded my head.''Well that's nice to know. Incase you need anything you know where to find me'' she said and turned walking away..Before she could reach very far I realized I had not shown any respect towards her by nodding in response to her question.''Uh... Ma'am do you have an idea what time they could be coming back. I mean the... The girls?'' I asked with a different intonation.''I think in 15mins or so they should be here'' she said.''Alr
Chapter Fifteen “What is it you have seen Kim?” Jasmine asked. “Looking at the beautiful cascading water falls” she responded. “Awwwe that look beautiful” Jasmine exclaimed. “Wow! This is what I would have missed if I hadn’t come with you?” Kimberley said and putting her hands on her mouth in surprise. “I told said you will enjoy this ride. We haven’t even reached the dark tunnel yet” Shancie said. “Is it were we are heading?” April asked eagerly. “Yes of course. These types of boats are the only ones that can go under the dark tunnel. As you can see it has a lot of lights. “Oh okay hope its not that scary. Because I am afraid of the dark” April said. Shancie laughs and says “ No how can you even be scared when you are with all these people on board.” “That’s not a guarantee” she said. “What else are we yet to see Shancie cause you seem to be so conversant with t
Chapter SixteenFinally, we were done cleaning the fish and by then the braai stand was already blazing. We all joined hand in hand in grilling the fish. The woman came through with the beer in a bucket full of ice cubes and we began imbibing.“Hey guys do you remember the after party gradation ceremony of our secondary school?” Warren asked.“Hell no don’t even think about bringing that story up” Angel came in.“Why don’t you wanna talk about it. It was funny wasn’t it?” I said.“Go to hell” he said.“Man what was going through your mind that night?” Bruce asked.“I wanted to impress my crush not knowing I am embarrassing myself” he said.“That was humiliating man” I said.“You would found another way of impressing her not diving in the pool” Bruce said.“You know the problem I
Chapter Seventeen“Did you guys have fun back there?” I asked.“I think the ladies are the ones who enjoyed the most of this trio. Isn’t it girls?” Bruce came in.“Whoa why us? When we both came this side?” Jasmine said.“I know where this is coming from” April said.“Lets hope its not what I am thinking it is” Kimberly said.“What would that be?” Angel came in looking or surprised and wanted to hear it out.“Girl, whatever you’re thinking that’s the case” Shancie said.“Whoa I am now getting lost what are you guys talking about?” I asked.“Him saying that we one the ones who had fun is because of the boat trip” Shancie said.“No! What makes you say that cause I didn’t even bring that up?” Bruce said.“That’s the only thing we did in you
Chapter Eighteen''Oh yeah, thanks'' she said in a nervous voice as she sat on a single seated.“You are welcome madame” I said.I sat on a couch opposite her so that I could continue staring at her and admiring her beauty. I looked at her face thoroughly and paying so much detail to her facial expressions. Her eyes were fixed primarily on the TV watching the sports highlights. She sat with her legs crossed and holding her handbag on top of her thighs and looking around the room.“Its not quite bad, isn’t it?” I said with a wryly on my face.“Ah um its okay I like it” she responded and cleared her throat.“How come I don’t feel like you do?” I said.“Oh really? I think your instincts have failed you” she replied.“Wow! I didn’t see that coming, but I trust my instincts more than anything” I said.“Good to know
