Chapter 9 💜
I and the girls planned to meet at Debra's house before going to Janet's party. I didn't want to go with Ben because Moyin said she'd go with him...I'll prolly fight with her and end up making Ben worried till he crash into a tree and we all die and then go to hell fire.
Mom had gone to work before I even woke up.
Moyin helped Mercy with the cooking, jollof rice with fried fish. Williams wasn't around, he left since the previous day.
While eating at the dining, Tife brought a new puzzle to the table, eating and arranging at the same time.
Dotun and Ben weren't bothered, they were busy on their phones. Mercy was also less concerned, she was the reserved type.
Just then the evil spirit from the kingdom of darkness decided to attack.
"Boluwatife, you know what you're doing is very bad" she started, calling him by his full name.
Tife didn't move an eye lash to her direction, he was always like that when arranging a puzzle or whatever, he'll forget other people existed.
I knew quite well that Tife wasn't doing the right thing, he was eating and wasn't supposed to do what he was doing at that time, mom would have totally scolded him buttt, I'm Benita and not mom.
"oya, dide, gbe kini e lo fi si nu ile and come back to eat "she ordered in Yoruba (carry that thing to your room and come back to eat).
Tife grumbled a bit looking up with half pleading eyes and half 'why are you disturbing me eyes'.
I still didn't say anything even when my baby brother looked to my side for my intervention. I gingerly put my spoonful of jollof rice to my mouth and waited for one more word from Moyin.
She stood up and walked over to Tife at the other side, she pulled his ear "oya stand and go and drop that thing olorinla". (big head)
He screamed and that was it. This was my moment , I stood up and walked over to her "First and foremost, my brother's head is not big in Jesus' name."
"But Kehinde..."
"Must you call me Kehinde? Are you mad?" I screamed
Tife hid at my back. My brothers were already looking at us expecting the worst.
"what he was doing wasn't right and you sef, you know it but being the drama queen that you are, you'd always want to cause a scene" She screamed back.
"If e sure for you, call me a drama queen one more time " I threatened.
Moyin knew me well, she knew I was mad and stupid and always looked for silly reasons to start a fight. She just shook her head and walked away to her seat.
"Alright girls, enough" Dotun ordered.
If only she had said one more thing.
*************************
We met at Debra's place. We did our make up and everything there. I wore a tube with a short suspender... Revealing.
Being the slay queens we were, we took pictures and posted online.
We chose to enter a public bus. Aisha obviously complained that it was low life.
"why don't we just go with Debra sister's car? " Aisha whined.
" because we want to do something different today " Olivia smiled.
Even with all Aisha's protest, we found ourselves in a bus.
" Wasiu bus stop wa oh! " Debra yelled at the conductor.
Aisha had her face twisted in disgust all through but the rest of us found it fun, we didn't get to do things like this at all.
" Change nkor? " I asked loudly.
The ugly dirty conductor frowned at us as he counted out some money handing it to Olivia.
" Excuse me, can you not put your armpit all over me? " Aisha frowned at the conductor.
" se ti ya werey ni abi e fe ki fo e leti? (have you gone mad or do you want me to slap you?) " the conductor growled.
" mr conductor, you should bring your voice low! " Olivia sighed.
" where dem bring all these children from? " a passenger complained.
" I know this one na, na all these big men children" another passenger pointed at me.
"it's rude to point at people " I exclaimed.
" oga driver, drive faster na " Debra yelled at the driver.
" na wa oh, make me we do drop all these children abeg "
" wahala won ti poju "
" dem no get home training "
My friends and I ignored their rude remarks, when would Nigerians learn to mind their business?
We got to the bus stop after causing a little scene. Aisha claimed that the lady right beside her touched her hand, but the lady denied saying even if it happened, the bus was tight and it was expected that bodies touched. But Aisha wouldn't agree.We had no choice too, we had to support our friends by shouting at the lady.
I was so sure all the passengers were happy when we dropped from the bus.
Janet's house was filled already. We got searched at the gate by 3 muscular men and Olivia flirted with the 3.
Music blared from different angles, I could see some of my former classmates and bunch of new faces. There were lots of cute guys and my friends made up their minds to go flirt with as many as possible... Just the girls that claimed they had boyfriends.
"why don't we go say hello to Janet first " Debra suggested.
" No, she's going to feel so high of herself " Aisha warned and the other girls agreed.
I laughed" Let's just say hi, yunno it's her party we came to "I advised. So we all searched for her and then we found her and made sure to compliment her dress with fake smiles then wished her a happy birthday.
The girls all left to different sides with the aim of flirting. I was left on my own, so I went to get a fruit juice just when I saw Jude, actually he bumped into me
"heyyyy" I cried, I was lucky the juice didn't spill all over my body.
"Sorry" he muttered as he bent to pick his fallen phone. I stood there like an idiot staring at the hair of the guy I always loved... I had always hopelessly tried to weave his thick hair.
"didn't expect you to come here, I thought you never liked Janet "he started with a sly smile.
I took what he said as extremely rude, I bit my bottom lip trying to push back whatever insult that was cooking in my mouth not minding if I was about to insult my ever popular cute ex boyfriend dressed in expensive clothing..... Just stop it.
" well, I'm here.. So, shocker! " I replied dryly.
He looked different, it's been a month I last saw him.
He smirked as he walked away, his shoulder harshly bumping into mine. He was so immature, the fact we broke up doesn't mean we couldn't be friends. He was so stupid!
I walked away to get another fruit juice when I heard some people talking:
"Yeah, they once dated.. Wetin I hear be say, she no sabi bang guys. She's a lesbi " the first guy started
Laughing, the second guy replied "with all the fine face and big breast wey she carry. Some girls ehnn".
"I swear, you dey follow am for IG? Black Benny "another one said.
I swallowed a lump, I was black Benny and they were talking about me, they obviously saw when Jude and I bumped into each other.
" I swear, her bobby massive, all her pictures reach for soapy " the third guy continued and that sent them laughing.
They didn't throw any look at me, but oh God I felt I was in the centre of their little gathering. I had to go home, was that what they all thought? That the popular Jude and Benny broke up because Benny wasn't good at "doing" and was a 'lesbian' Kill me!
I walked away making sure not to fall, cause I was sure losing my hold. Jude was so mean, was that what he told everybody?
I started searching for my friends, I wanted them to know that I was about going home, I wasn't interested in the party anymore.
I dialed Aisha's number :" Hey, where are you? I need to see you guys "I said to the phone.
My brother!
He should be here, he would take me home! I called him and he said he arrived about 30 minutes ago and was standing at the snack bar. I started searching around for the snack bar, people were too many here,they were pushing and pulling, how many people did Janet invite to her party?
Just then, I saw a small gathering at the front, I really wasn't interested, I just wanted to walk along and search for Ben but something caught my attention.
Wasn't that Moyin in the centre over there ?
Yeah, it was my cousin, even if I couldn't recognise her on her over too much make up, I would definitely know my black mini skirt and crop top that she borrowed to wear... Pig!
Even the wig she wore was mine.
She was lovingly holding somebody's arm. I couldn't see clearly but since it was my cousin over there, I had to push my way in to see...
Moyin was holding Jude's arm continuously battling her mascara filled eye lashes at him. My own mascara oh.
I could see girls eyeing Jude with lustful eyes.
He was truly a cute guy, even in some cases, he looked cuter than Fisayo just that Fisayo was sexier. Why didn't I invite Fisayo to the party sef?
Jude's eyes caught mine.
"oooh, I just spoke about you some seconds ago... As I was saying, y'all should meet your Lagos finest boy's new girlfriend Moyin and that girl over there is her cousin and my ex.......
Jude just humiliated me!
