I
remember you, just like yesterday; the moment you stepped into my life.It was a
sunny morn,’ we were still in elementary school. There was primary one but you
chose primary two. The moment I saw you, my heart knew one thing for true- it
was you. Right from the door to your seat, I knew what we had was true, it was
a chemistry that I learnt in biology, the velocity in your propensity that
turned my brains off momentarily.
I was shy to approach but you can’t hold
emotions to keys and lock, so I came close. It was your friendship I wanted; I
wasn’t Caleb or any other random guy
that just wanted the goodies over your chest. I wanted to know what you liked,
what you ate, who you truly were, I wanted to get close, to know what you felt
and what was in your head and what happened to guys like me that were always
scared.
It
wasn’t easy at first, but you let me into yourself, we became friends, I joined
the choir, the daughter of our choir mistress. I loved you to death!! But how
could I ever tell you what I felt. In primary four, I felt millions of
electrons every time you passed my side with a smile. I did all could, I became a regular visitor
in your home, but I could never tell you how much I felt.
What
a life!!!
When
courage finally came, I got there late. Nnaemeka got there first, I came with
the true gospel- love, He came with selfish desires-lust. You had it all…most
endowed. Little wonder we clashed over you. I knew I could never have you. I
just simply knew.
Your
breasts were ample, full fleshed; your waist had that angle- sepesepe figure
eight. You matured early, like a flourishing stream with a killer hour glass
figure. Heads always turned to look whenever you made that move. I knew you loved
me; but you fell for him!! He kissed you; I never got the chance to. I could
never make my move, you betrayed me. Who didn’t you have?
Who?
Men
lusted after you. You always indulged them, fueling their “mountain dew” with
your “sparkling grape juice.”
When
I finally moved on, I let go of you. I chased Gloria: She was cool, dated
Ogechukwu even though it was meant to be only you, I kissed Nene severally,
desperately danced withChelsy and Adum at our SS2 class party. I got home that day;
my light green shirt was thoroughly stained. I frolicked with Yetunde, to
totally forget all about you.
I
cut off communication as I normally do. Patiently waiting to forget you. I
needed a reset, a brainwash, just anything that could let me go a day without
thinking of you.
What
did ever do to you?
Ehn,
what?
Even
though I did all I could do to keep you away, you never let me go. You begged
me after secondary school. You told me the whole truth but I doubted you, how
did you expect me to believe Nnaemeka never kissed and caressed you, that Caleb
never lay his hands on your hourglass figure or that tolunever squeezed those
huge frontal lobes on your chest? How?
Do
you think I was a fool? I had informants about. They told me how each guy had
his own half of your national cake. I loved my girls to be pure, and truthful,
in all loyalty and honesty. I had plans for you; that is why I became a geek
with books, not just caring about looks because I had our futures planned in my
mind!!! Our beautiful kids, houses and cars. Your diamond ring, worth millions
of dollars, swimming pools, our black mayback!!!
But
you never came back. You went everywhere and expect me to take you back?
Never!!!
Go
somewhere else. You’ve made my life a living hell!! The love I have for you has
suffered the wrath of hell, it no longer hears, feels or cares, our love is
dead. I am sorry, baby girl I have found someone else.
