THE LECTURE ROOM was filled with multiple sources of noise. Students were shouting, various ringing tone popped from each corner , doors slamming as people came in and out of the class.
Snack wrappers, rotten corn cobs, and fresh orange peels lay strewn about like dead leaves. A cloud of flies gathered around the filthy crumbs of leftover puff-puff. The squeaking ceiling fan circled lazily and stirred the putrid smell across the congested room.
There was a dustbin right by the entrance of the class and Eniola wondered why her classmates prefer to liter the floor. Not even a tinge of pity on their faces as the old mama cleaner bent her unyielding back to clean their mess.
The class rep, Esohe, was reading something out to the class from the freshly printed paper in her hands. Her tiny voice drowned by the loud chatter that traveled around the 200seater lecture room. It's just a battle of words, nobody listening - everyone talking. The noise was ear-crippling that
DAYO HAD DRIVEN to Ikoyi to visit his favorite tracks, The Chase Race Track. He loved the smell of the tracks, the speed and the rush of adrenaline that always seem to cure his numbness.The tracks was what kept him sane.Dayo yelled in victory as his orange turbo viper shot past the finish line. The crowd went crazy as the other race cars flashed across the finish line.He'd won. Again.Dayo climbed out of his car and was quickly surrounded by his friends and some sexy girls they brought to the tracks.Omah returned with an unopened bottle of champagne, "I told you he was going to beat that motherfucker! Abi I no talk am? (Or didn't I say so?)," he shouted.He popped the cork, causing the champagne to spill over. The girls giggled as he poured each of them a glass.King, the owner of the racing tracks approached them. "I have to get you racing again so I can make some money off your ass,"he grinned."You could make a cou
THE SUN WAS sinking low, embracing the snowy white clouds that lazily spreads across the sky. The sky was ablaze with swirling shades of orange and pink, as if someone had smeared burning flames across the twilight.Traffic hawkers thrusting their goods into moving cars, bus touts harassing a danfo drivers for not paying their due, fake cure-all vendors yelling, beggars soliciting the charity of bus passengers.A slight breeze blew the odor of stale sweat, salvaged by the smell of cheap perfume mingled with exotic colognes.Few yards away, a grungy old man in tattered clothes scowls, then a smile suddenly spreads on his lips. His demented smile bared uneven brown teeth stained by years of stale tobacco smoke.A little girl of about six ran alongside a rickety Toyota Corolla, balancing a tray of oranges on her tiny head.Eniola stopped to buy some roasted corn from the one roadside vendors. "Ekasan ma (Good day ma), how much is this one?" Enio
THE RAIN LASHED hard against the roof, thunder crashed and the shadow of a lightning flashed across the room. The weather was perfect for cuddling and further naughty stuffs.Rain, champagne, beautiful girl. Could it get any better?Patricia Eze was by far the prettiest girl in the department of computer engineering. She had her fair share of toasters and most of the girls in her class were really envious of her. She had light skin that glowed like the sunrise, and her body was molded to perfection, with curves in all the right places.Patricia moaned into his mouth, as Dayo's hands disappeared under her red silky blouse, pushing her bra up and cupping one of her breast.Dayo felt a sting of pain when her acrylic nails dug into his bare back. Groaning, he pinned her hands above her head and kept a firm grip.Throaty moans filled the room as his hands skimmed the soft flesh of her thighs. She lifted her hips to meet his, making him
THERE WAS A profound silence in the room. It was so quiet that you could hear a pin drop on the tile.Eniola leaned forward in her seat, her full attention on the flat screen hanging from the wall opposite her. She tensed as the referee brought the whistle to his lips.The goalkeeper crouched in a ready position, bracing himself for the penalty kick. Lionel Messi pretended to kick the ball to the left side, causing the goalkeeper to hesitate long enough for him to kick the ball to the right side of the net.The ball whizzed past him and smashed into the net."Goal ball !" Folarin screamed, jumping off the chair.Eniola clapped. "WE DID IT! Up Barcelona!" she said, jumping up and down while hugging her brother.Daniel's face twisted with annoyance at the loss of his team. "Ode ni keeper yen(The goalkeeper is a fool)," he yelled, cursing at the goalkeeper.Folarin smacked his back. "Guy, no blame am nah. I knew y
DAYO HAD JUST finished watching a match at Blue Ocean with his friends and was returning home. His car was running out of fuel and he had only stopped to fill his tank when he saw Eniola."Hey. Need a lift?" he asked.Eniola hugged her soaked clothes tighter around her body. "No thank you."Dayo swept his gaze over her body. She was standing in the rain shivering and her teeth clattering and she was still as stubborn as hell.He wouldn't get into his car if it was him too, considering how big of a jerk he had been to her yesterday. Dayo couldn't believe how angry she had made him. He had never lost control of his emotions, not even when he had found out that Tina was cheating on him. Annoyed? Definitely. But never angry.Dayo groaned. "C'mon, Eniola. You are going to catch a cold, besides there are no buses here. So you don't really have a choice.""I'm sure there are bikes around here somewhere. I'll manage, ehn," she said, turning ar
THE MOANS CEASED and the door opened, revealing Abbey in a blue boxer shorts. He was sweaty, shirtless and looked like he just ran a marathon."Omo,I'm so fucking hungry," he said, rubbing his hands on his flat stomach. He didn't seem to notice that she was in the room until he was a few steps from the kitchen, where he stopped abruptly and turned around. "Eniola?" he asked.Dayo answered him. "She's staying here for the night."Eniola smiled nervously. "Hi," she said, trying to keep her eyes from going any lower from his face. The guy was half naked!Abbey didn't seem embarrassed at all and only returned her smile. "Hey, I'm Abbey. I'm the nice guy," he winked, shaking her hands.The girl that had been screaming emerged from the room and folded her arms on her chest. "Ade Banks 'The Terminator," she hailed.She was standing in the doorway wearing a long white robe with a purple hair bonnet on her head."Jemima, what's up?
DAYO MADE HIS way back to his room carrying two mugs of steaming hot coffee. The bathroom door opened and Eniola slipped out sheepishly, hugging herself. She was wearing Dayo's shirt that reached all the way to her knees.The shirt drowned her, against the soft cotton her nipple stood erect and knowing that she was wearing only her panties under the T-shirt stirred his arousal. How could she look so damn sexy in only a white oversized T-shirt?She wasn't wearing a bra and he was painfully aware of it.Eniola cleared her throat and crossed her arms over her chest. "Thanks for the shirt," she said, smiling nervously.Dayo realized that she was feeling uncomfortable and looked away. He drew a deep breath, "Glad to be of help," he cursed under his breath as his voice came out husky."You read all these books? I didn't know you were into these kind of literature," she said, trying to ease the awkwardness as she walked over to his
ENIOLA STARED WIDE-EYED at the red pantie trimmed with black lace that was lying inside Dayo's bathroom drawer. She had just finish using his shower and opened the drawer to check for a face towel when she found the pantie.Fucking pervert!A sudden knock on the door made her jump. "Eniola? Please open the door, I need to grab a hoodie. It's freezing out here.""Just a minute please," she yelled back.She quickly closed the drawer and rushed out of the bathroom. "Good morning," she smiled."Morning, doll face. Sorry to disturb you, I just want to grab a hoodie," he said, strolling into the room.DAMN! He wasn't wearing a shirt. He should be wearing a shirt. Why the hell wasn't he wearing a shirt?!Broad shoulders, muscled chest, flat stomach...Tattoos crawled up his upper arms all the way to his neck, swirling in shades of pitch black and red.Eniola's eyes followed him as he walked around her to his wardrob
