EPISODE 6&7
*continues*
Days later
At exactly 5pm on wednesday evening, days after Jenifer's birthday. I
got a very urgent phone call from Tony.
"please can you come over to my house. I need your help" he begged.
I left all i was doing and headed to his house, where i saw my friend
very nervous as ever.
"oga Tony you frightened me with your call. What's happening?" i asked
as we shook hands.
"A lot is happening my brother. Can you believe that as we speak this
minute, Irene is in a bus heading towards here" he complained.
"Irene" i repeated the name, staring at him with a little confusion.
"don't tell me you have forgotten Irene?. The nurse from our village i
once told you i had a little affair with, when i returned to the
country some years back. Remember i told you she wriggled her way into
my family's heart before i left her for Jenifer?. She swore never to
let me be. Claiming that i'm her husband whether i liked it or not" he
explained desperately.
"it's okay, yea i got it. I remember very well. So what's the problem?" i asked,
"you know i can't let the girl stay. What if Jenifer finds out?" he lamented.
"you made the mistake by first allowing her to get on the bus. You
could have told her you aren't in town or travelling out. Well, since
she's already on her way and probably knows no one else in this city.
I suggest you take her in for the night, first thing tomorrow you send
her home. It's already late for any other plan" i suggested. He
breathed deeply and looked at me.
"brother, I love Jenifer so much. I'm planning to marry her in a
couple of months. I can risk anything spoiling my plans." he prayed.
"well you have to risk this" i smiled and stood up. The door bell rang
at that exact moment drawing our attention to the door.
"she's here" he added with a little frown.
"cheer up bro" i smiled, headed to the door and opened it for Irene
who smiled at me, holding a small travelling bag. I returned her smile
and dutifully left the apartment afterwards, heading to Jenifer house
with a dirty plan.
The opportunity i was waiting for was finally in my hands.
20 minutes later. Jenifer's apartment
"I beg you in the name of God, what are you doing here by this time?"
Jenifer asked with surprise when she answered her door to see me. I
smiled, while she blocked the way, stopping me from gaining access
into the apartment.
"I know you think Tony is the perfect guy. I equally know you are
having strong doubts about your true feelings for him. The answers to
everything is now available my dear. Just move over to his house and
see for yourself. Don't call or tell him that i spoke to you. It
should be our little secret" i winked and left, smiling with
satisfaction.
My bag of explosives were well laid and ready for action. All that was
remaining was to visit the crime scene the next day and check the
level of damage they created.
EPISODE 7
*continues*
I was very restless that fateful night. I was just a step away from
turning Jenifer away from Tony. I was so close, very close. How could
i sleep.
Early the next morning. I headed over to her place to confirm if the
tricks i pulled worked as planned. I went to Jenifer's house not
thinking of anything but my plans.
By 7:45am i got to her apartment and knocked anxiously on the door. I
was totally anxious as ever.
The door soon opened to reveal Jenifer looking very terrible like
someone down with a deadly flu. I smiled inside while displaying an
innocent look with my face.
"you are now happy huh. It's what you have been praying for. Yes i
caught him with another lady. I did as you asked and caught Tony with
a woman. I can't believe he is cheating on me" she cried, leaving me
totally relieved with her outburst. There was nothing this time to
stop her from accepting me.
"be clever, boy" i quickly advised myself, rushing up to hug her with care.
"you shouldn't be crying for anyone, more especially a big jerk like
Tony. Calm down, I beg of you" i pleaded, holding her softly. She
struggled and tried to break away from me but i held her strongly.
"my dear i know i shouldn't be saying this but i think it's good you
found out Tony's true behaviour on time. Seriously baby" i murmured
carefully.
There wasn't any doubt my feelings for Jenifer turned me into a very
terrible person. Making me do Something very immature and
irresponsible. As a human being i felt guilty and bad but the urge to
continue with my plans were stronger than the guilt i was feeling.
A knock on the door quickly sounded breaking up my thoughts.
"I think Tony is here. He probably has come to beg" she informed me
while i drew back with shock. Strangely it never occured to me to
reason towards that direction. It never occured to me to plan what to
say and how to act if Tony was to show up at her house which caused
the shock i got on hearing that he was probably the person knocking. I
equally knew he was going to be surprised to see me there and so had
just few seconds to think out a reasonable explanation to give my
friend.
I wasn't yet ready to expose myself to him.
