The Girl They Called A Boy CHAPTER 81
IRISH POV I didn’t stay to hear the rest of it. I went over to the kitchen to get a bottle of water. It has been one hell of a discovery. Mummy spent the best part of her life gambling and resenting Mr. Smith, who apparently is my father, while he spent his time mourning his dear loved one. How pathetic. I didn’t know how to feel about all of this. Finding out my father isn’t an asshole, and that he is one hell of a fine man, made me truly forgive my mum. I mean, the man is cute. I don’t know how to act around him. I have spent almost all my life resenting him as well for what his absence did to us. I took a bottle of water and turned to go. My heart almost dropped when I bumped into Diego standing right in the kitchen. “You scared me!” I held my chest. I wanted to ask him how he got here, but that would be a silly question. The mafia king appears anytime. “Sorry about that.” I was already taking the water when I noticed him staring at me intensely. “Nigga, I know my face is

IRISH POVGrandma immediately snatched my hand away from him like his touch alone could contaminate me.“Mum, is this you?” the man said, his voice shaking slightly. “I have looked for you everywhere.”Looking closer at him, my brain finally connected the dots. I met him at the resort, the man with the messed-up love story.“I heard about Lucy’s death,” he continued softly. “I am so sorry.”Grandma’s face changed instantly.“It is your entire family that is dead!” she snapped. “My daughter is well and alive, Smith. Now get your silly self out of here before I call the cops on you!”Smith, that name again. It rang louder this time.Didn’t Mum say something about Smith being our father?I slowly turned my head back to him, then to Grandma, and gasped.No way.No actual way.“Lucy is alive?” he asked, completely thrown off. “How? I saw her grave. I even got her flowers just last month when I went visiting.”Okay.Something is very wrong here.Very, very wrong.Because right now, this is
The Girl They Called A Boy CHAPTER 79
IRISH’s POV“You look pretty.”Jimmy said it so casually, like he wasn’t capable of ruining my entire emotional stability with just one sentence.He was leaning against the table, taking a lazy bite of an apple like he had no problems in this world.What do they say about apples again?Exactly, temptation.And this one?Walking, talking temptation with zero self-control.I rolled my eyes slightly, but inside? My stupid heart did one small flip.“I was able to get hold of the person who took the video of us,” he continued, tossing the apple up and catching it like a bored rich boy. “It was Lilly. Your jealous girlfriend.”He winked.I blinked. Then blinked again.That girl.That damn girl will never mind her business.If I still had my “Idris balls” on, I would have scratched her face without blinking.“Of course it’s Lilly,” I muttered. “That girl needs a full-time job.”Jimmy chuckled softly, clearly enjoying my irritation.I didn’t even bother responding again.Instead, I turned tow

IRISH’s POV“Are you okay? What happened?”The phone almost slipped from my hand, but Nicki was fast enough to catch it before it kissed the floor.She didn’t even wait. She started going through it immediately.“Damn!” she exclaimed. “How did they even get a video of this?”She kept scrolling, her face shifting between shock and amusement.“Just breathe, okay,” she added, patting my shoulder like I was about to faint. “You weren’t called a thief or a murderer. Just some homophobic maggots calling you out. It’s nothing serious. The heart knows what it wants. There is nothing wrong with being gay.”For a second… just one second… I had to pause and mentally check my body.Because what the actual fuck is she saying?I slowly turned my head to look at her.If confusion had a face, it would be mine.I shot her a look, what are you even saying right now’?She caught it instantly and mimicked zipping her mouth with an invisible key.Good. Because if she had said one more word, I might have s

IRISH’s POV“His name is not important. He is just a sperm donor. Mum, I really hope you change this time, not you trying to scheme your way into Diego’s heart. You won’t like the outcome.”I almost added that Diego was the kind of man who could slit someone’s throat without blinking, just to scare her straight, but that would be giving away information I wasn’t ready to explain.She held my hands like we were in some emotional Nollywood scene. If she weren’t my mum, I would have rolled my eyes so hard they’d fall out.“Diego, how did you meet him? He is such a nice, handsome man.”And there she goes again. Wiggling her brows like a teenager.This woman has no shame, but I dare not say that loud.“Mum,” I said slowly, already tired, “just forget about it. Just behave and forget about Smith. You will do that for us, right?”She nodded quickly, like a child being promised sweets, then pulled me into a tight hug. Then she whispered, “I think he likes you.”I pulled back immediately. “M

JIMMY“I’m not ready to talk about her. Don’t worry, you will get to know her at the right time. So, will you help me out or not?”She shrugged and rolled her eyes.“Fine. Coincidentally, someone I know is nursing a heartbreak. She wants to prove a point to her boyfriend that she has moved on. This can work. I will set up a date tomorrow. I will get going now. Kisses.”She was gone. Looking at the bottle of champagne I ordered earlier, my mind traveled wide. I don’t even know if all of this makes sense.Is she still with him because of the promise she made, or something else? I struggled with my hair. Love makes one do crazy things.The next day, Becky was the first person to call and inform me about my meet-up with the said girl. That was faster than I thought.Hours later, I was done having breakfast, had my shower, and returned to the same restaurant, but this time, waiting for someone else.She arrived almost immediately. From the pictures and descriptions my sister gave, she was t

“No way, you have to bring in another person. How am I supposed to act?”I can be everything but definitely not a liar. Did I just say that? Funny, I breathe in and breathe out lies every day ever since I set foot in this college. He was still looking at me with that same pleading look, like a pupp

IRISH’s POV“Now stop, Becky. I only placed my head on her…, I mean, his thighs. I had a headache, and he offered to help.”He was making things worse with his funny explanations. He was looking at me for help. I looked away; I’m not about to start a new chapter with a lie. I don’t even know what I

IRISH POVI slowly opened my eyes and stretched my body. Huh… why am I lying down on Jimmy’s bed, under his duvet? I gently raised the duvet, and I was naked. Ain’t wearing anything at all.Just then, the entire event of last night came flooding back like a Netflix recap. I covered my face with bot

IRISH’S POVGuessing from the look on his face, Joshua was as surprised as me.“Come in, son. I was just discussing with your brother’s friend here, who just got this beautiful young lady pregnant.”“Idris, Joshua, here is my first son, 32 years old, well-established, successful, no baby mama drama
