After that incident, I left the hospital and quickly took a bike to the hotel.

I packed all my things and headed back to school.

I called my twin, told him everything and he patiently listened to my crying more than talking. As usual he made me feel better.

When Fisayo gets better, I'll have to explain everything to him and if he feels he wouldn't continue with me, I'll gladly accept, focus on school and become a reverend sister!

Aisha and Debra came back and I appreciated the fact they understood me and didn't mention anything that happened.
Aisha only said I had to get some medicine.

"you look miserable, remember this old cartoon, fat dog Mendoza? That's how you look like " she said.

I laughed at her effort to release the tension in the air.

I laughed harder when Debra disagreed with a serious face " no, she doesn't look like Mendoza, she looks Scooby doo"

"I love you guys, even though you're both calling me a dog "

Aisha smiled at me while Debra said " eww".

##########

I called my dad and asked him if I could get a car.

My brothers had but I was there stuck with nothing.

My dad had once asked me if I wanted one but I stupidly said "no"

I made up my mind to get a car as soon as possible after the hot sun almost melted me after class.

I waited impatiently for a bike, I had to go and see Fisayo in the hospital. He had been there for four days now.

"care for a ride? " a guy in my class had asked.

I smiled at him " no thanks ".

I excused myself from where he had parked his car to talk to me.

I walked further on to wait patiently for a bike.

" come on sweetheart, you're too pretty to be under this hot sun" he said again as he stubbornly drove to where I was.

Yen yen yen.

I wanted to be nice, I honestly wanted to.

"um please.. Um, I'm not exactly going to where you can take me to, thanks for trying to help " I said again walking faster this time.

He still stupidly drove to my side again and said "Alright, I've been seeing you in class for quite a while and I have to admit, you're such a beautiful lady and I'll really want to hang out with you"

I brought out my phone, I already decided to call Yusuf the bike man I was fond of, there was no bike around, the ones that passed all had passengers.
Speaking with Yusuf I thought that would make this guy drive away but no, I was wrong.

"sweetheart, honestly you didn't have to call somebody to come pick you when I can easily do that, alright why don't we hangout somewhere, tell me, where would you like to go? "

This guy was just an agent sent from hell to frustrate my life!

" tell me, where'd you like to go? We can hangout at my place or yours , you pick "

My forehead wrinkled in anger.

" both! " I yelled

" both, what? "

" why don't you go hang out at your place, while I go to mine!! " I yelled again. Some students standing at a block laughed.

Fortunately for me, Yusuf came along to pick me.

***************

Fisayo had still not woken up.

I usually bring him a flask of food while coming hoping he'd wake up to eat, but for the past four days I had always returned the plates home full.

I held his hand, crying.

"please darling, I need you to wake up, I'm sorry for hitting you with a vase, I promise to always listen to you... I'll do anything you say, I would... I might stop talking to Timi for you, anything, I promise, I'll really do anything " I cried as I place my head on his chest squeezing his hand tightly.
It was something I was fond of doing.

" anything? "

What was that? Did he just say anything?
I raised my head up cleaning my eyes.

" Fisayo? "

His eyes opened slowly, he smiled weakly.

" anything? " he asked again

I didn't answer him, I knew I couldn't. I screamed.

" he's awakeeeeee! Doctor, nurse! Anybody, he's awake! "
I ran outside and came back with a nurse, she checked him, felt him and I looked at her anxiously. She smiled at me " he's fine dear ".

She walked out to get the doctor.
I was so glad,still crying, I held onto his arm tightly, I didn't care if I was hurting him.

I didn't even know if I was crying because I felt guilty for hurting him or because I didn't want the person I loved to leave me.

"anything? " he asked me softly again. I squeezed his palm as I watched drift off to sleep.

" my dear, you need to go home and rest, your friend would be okay, I promise you "

I looked up to where the voice came from, it was the doctor, he was an elderly man.
I nodded as I stood up, I glanced at the flask.

" don't worry, I'll get the nurse to make him eat " he promised with a smile.

I squeezed Fisayo's hand one more time before smiling at the doctor preparing to leave.
As I held my bag tightly at the door, the elderly doctor said

" go to the nurse at the reception , tell her to give you a prescription for body pains, she'll show you where the pharmacy is "

I smiled and thanked him, he knew I was fagged out.

I did as he said and when I got back to school Debra slapped my head in the typical Debra way and told me it was the first time she had seen me smile in four days.

**************

A driver came to drop my car for me. A Toyota Venza.
My papers and everything were ready, I trust my dad to get everything ready for me.

I was so glad, I finally had a car.
I couldn't drive even with my years of being with people who could drive, I didn't learn a bit. I only knew how to hold the steering wheel, yeah that's all.. You heard me right, I only knew how to place my two hands on the wheel and just look on.

Aisha and Debra were happy for me.
We jumped around the car chattering up and down.

"You know my dad got me a Benz last year right? " Aisha reminded.

" madam Benz, you don't have to remind us " Debra hissed in annoyance.

Debra collected the car key from the driver and she drove us around campus while Aisha and I screamed in delight.

After we had enough, Aisha took turn to drive us back, she promised herself to tell her dad to get her car next week, she had a car already but none of us saw it as important to need a car in school...stupid?

"heard you got a new car.. Hmm, that's nice " Olivia mumbled dryly. She kept on forcing herself to talk to me.

I posted a picture of me and my new ride on all my social media account.
I don't know why but I was upset when I didn't see Timi's comment on any of them.

Fisayo was to be discharged the next week .
I had already gone to see him, he didn't ask me the weird question : "anything?".

I told him about my new car and he could see how happy I was.
I kept on ranting on how the sun always annoyed me in school because I had no car, he listened to me smiling and when I kissed him, I could see him smile.

His smile lightened my world.
His smile was my sunshine.
His smile was my source of living.... So I thought, it had to be.

During the week, I decided to go to the salon to get treatment for my natural hair, Timi called me.

"Hey, so you didn't want to tell me you got a new car "

" uh! Good afternoon to you too " I mumbled

" so my dear pumpkin, I figured you have been avoiding me since the day I took you to the hospital, you were not even grateful enough to send me a message or call me, what's wrong with you? "

" did you call me to give me a long speech, I'm making my hair right now, you should stop disturbing me " I said dryly.

" you're making your hair? Shuku and base or all back and base? " he asked .

" yeah, very funny" I said full of sarcasm

"How have you been? " I found myself asking

" is that you Benita? What did you do to my Benita, you hardly ask how I am... "

" What's your problem exactly? "

" Let's hang out pumpkin, why don't you come pick me up with your car then we'll go shopping, I'll foot the bills "

Why does think he can order me that way? Who does he even think he is?

" look Timi, I can't hang out with you because my boyfriend wouldn't like the idea, he'll be discharged next week besides that, I can't even drive"

He laughed.
Yeah he had to laugh his non stop laughter and as expected I got upset.

"what makes you think I want to hang out you, what's so special about you? " I asked in annoyance.
The hair dresser had been looking at me wondering why I've still been on the phone.

" forget it, I'm so special, you just don't know but you'll know later on, besides I'm so bored, Ifeoma traveled recently "

So now Timi clearly made me understand I was just an item of amusement for him. His girlfriend Ifeoma had traveled and now he wanted me to come keep him company.

I felt hurt and I promised myself it's best not to have anything doing with him.

" since you clearly have no respect for me, I think it's best we end this friendship or whatever it is that is going on.... I don't want to have anything doing with you again and I promise not to ever call you! "

The next day, I called and asked him if he knew any driving school around but he simply reminded me I promised not to call him again and with that he ended the call.

How juvenile!

To hell with him anyway.

Debra tried teaching me to drive.

-Benny stop holding the steering wheel with too much force na
-but this is how they hold it on the Tv.

-You know you have to on your blinker while turning.
-I think the blinker would be more beautiful with different colours, what do you think?

-it's like you're stupid, was I the one who invented a car's blinker, how would I make it colourful?
-Let's try to be creative.

Debra wasn't patient with me.
It wasn't any better with Aisha.

-why don't you respray this car? We can get one of the best car spray person to do it, I'll pay the bills.
-um, okay.

-babe, is it possible we go to Dubai, this weekend to get revolving wheels?
-Dubai? Why... But...

-I know it's a new car but would you like to buy a very expensive engine? I don't mind paying
-Aisha but I thought you wanted to teach me how to drive.
