The devil who loved me - Chapter 68

We returned to the hotel, already we heard news that lectures for that day had been suspended. Sparrow was at the Hotel lobby when we got in, you could see from his eyes that he was devasted…I gave him a hug and went inside the room, soon i was surrounded by Timi, Abayomi and Toun.

Me : Abayomi, dont you think we should just let go of this elections?

Abayomi : I have been thinking about it too, i never imagined it was going to be like this..

Timi : but we have come too far, elections is next week friday..

Toun : If you guys step down now, they have won..Eli and National…

Toun walked to where Abayomi stood and looked into his eyes…

Toun : You have always wanted to be the SUG president, please dont give up…

He answer her…

Me : But we are not even sure of winning, its 50/50…

Timi : you have a point bby…

Abayomi : i will call Jafar, lets hear what he thinks…

Abayomi placed the call, after some seconds, he hung up..

Me : what did he say?

Abayomi : They are taking Aji’s corpse to the mortuary, he will drop by on his way back..

Timi : that settles it then…

Toun : Please i have something to say…

we all looked up, apart from Abayomi…

Toun : You guys are more than my friends, you are my family..thats why i am begging you guys to forgive me…

Me : Toun , stop! …for what?

Toun : Tana, i have to say this…I slept with Naetochukwu thinking it will make things right, but it was a stupid thing to do…i am sorry Abayomi…please forgive me. I aint saying we should go back as bf and gf…but i need to know you have forgiven me, so it can reduce the dirtiness i feel on me…

It was Timi and my turn to look down…But the idiot didnt day anything…so i looked up and went to hug my friend, Toun…i helped her wipe away her tears…Yes i am a hugger!..

Abayomi and Timi left the room and i was left alone with Toun…

Toun : Thank you dear…

Me : Dont worry, Abayomi will come around…

Toun : i hope he knows i am really sorry….

She started crying again…

Me : stop it, its not like he didnt sleep with Kofo and all…

Toun : does that justify my action? in the car?…

Me : Alrigjt, lets eat…food makes things better…

She giggled amidst her tears…

Toun : Glutton like you…

there was a knock on the door, i wondered if Jafar had arrived so soon..

It was Timi.

Timi : Toun, Abayomi wants to see you…

I was surprised, but she was more surprised…

Toun : serious?

Timi : Yeah…

Toun bounced from the bed and started powdering her face…looked at herself in the mirror and left…

Timi : those people are crazily inlove!

me : Yes o…

Timi : do you love me like that?

i wondered where this question was coming from…

Me : ours is different…

Timi : explain…

Me : Those people are as good as married….

Timi : and we are?

me : modern lovers…

Timi : this has to do with Jafar right?…

me : oh no Timi…Ahn ahn…

Timi : i dont know, i just feel this vibe about you guys…

Me : you are getting Paranoid…

i sat on his lap and gavd him a full kiss on the lips. he started carrying me to the bed…

Me : Timi, i am hungry…lemme call room service.

He grudginly let me go…i picked up the inter-com and dialled ‘0’…

Me : Hello, is this the kitchen?
