???????? My Addiction Episode Six:

I walked hastily towards Michelle and after some seconds I came to a halt.

“Hey! You’re Adele’s friend, right?” She asked.

“Yes,” I was still struggling to catch my breath.

“You’re… David?”

“Yeah, yeah, the name is David. Sorry I made quite a bad first impression, it’s nice to meet you,” I stretched my hand to shake hers, she was quite hesitant but she finally reciprocated.

“Okay, I’m Michelle,” she said.

Man! Her voice was like melody to my ears.

“So which way are you going?” I asked, as we began moving slowly towards the road.

“This way,” she said, pointing to her right.

“Me too, where do you live?”

“Tenth street,” she replied. She didn’t sound comfortable letting me know where she stayed.

“Wow, I live two streets away from there.”

“Oh really?”

“Yes, so tell me Michelle. What department are you in?”

“Physiology, I’m in the same department as Adele.”

“That’s surprising, because I hardly see you.”

We were already by the roadside and Michelle was trying to stop a cab. I mustered courage, I can’t let such a golden chance pass me by.

“Please can I have you number?” I could notice a somewhat abrasive look on her face, maybe I shouldn’t have asked her.

She stared at me, like she was contemplating on whether or not to give me her number.

“I just want to have your number, just in case…”

“It’s fine,” she said.

I reached for my pocket and brought out my phone, I unlocked it and gave her to input her digits.

“Thanks, I’ll call you,” I said, smiling to ease the pressure. Meanwhile, my heart was in my throat.

“Okay.”

“Yeah, take care of yourself.” I said.

“Wait!” Michelle called.

“Are you going back to meet your girlfriend? I need you to help me pass a message to her.”

“No. I’m heading home, plus, Adele is not my girlfriend.” I said feigning a stern look.

“Ohh…I thought you two are dating. It’s alright then, we’ll see some other time.”

She boarded a cab and I watched as the driver zoomed off. I didn’t want to enter the same vehicle with her, I was already messing things up. My plan was to text her and see how things go from there.

I knew very well that I was getting myself in a ditch, but I believed that I could be careful enough to play with fire and not get burnt.

It was almost 8pm when I arrived home. I knocked on the door and it took a while before Kelvin finally opened up.

“Guy! What’s up na? Where have you been?”

“It’s a long story, I don’t want to talk about it.” I said firmly.

“Bro, you just left without saying anything. You got me worried.”

I gave a mocking laughter.

“You Kelvin? Worried about me? That should win the lie of the century,” I said laughing.

“Fine, it’s not like I was really worried or something. Look, I prepared soup; egusi soup — your favourite. You can check it out yourself.”

“Is this your way of apologizing for what you did?”

“You can call it whatever you want, I’ve tried. I spent a lot of money preparing that food.”

“So it’s easier for you to spend money on cooking than to simply say sorry for what you did?”

“David, I don’t get you. Why should I apologize, was that girl betrothed to you?”

Kelvin was beginning to get on my toes, for the very first time I was beginning to see the bad side of our contrasting characters.

“Is that really what you’re going to say?” I was dumbfounded.

He rested his hand on my shoulder and said beneath his breath, “I’m sorry.”

I was shocked, I had never heard Kelvin apologize.

“David, we shouldn’t be letting a girl come in between us, a girl we know little about. Look, I’ve washed my hands concerning that matter. There are many fishes in the river, so if you’re reasonable I think you should forget about that. Go and eat something, e be like na hungry dey do you.”

“I’ve eaten,” I said coldly.

“Hmm!” He sighed, he picked up his phone and walked back inside.

What was wrong with me? What was I even doing? I felt like I was just been stupid. But it wasn’t my fault, this addiction was eating me up.

Later that evening.

I was just about going to bed. Kelvin was still glued to his phone, it had become his wife lately.

“Goodnight,” I whispered.

“Goodnight,” he answered.

“Ehen Guy!”

“Yes?”

“Where were you this evening?”

“Why are questioning me like my dad?” I was startled by his question.

“I’m just asking, because you’ve never stayed out that late. Abi you done dey follow woman?”

Geez! My heart skipped.

How could he have thought of that, Kelvin acted like a wizard sometimes.

“Answer na.”

“Fine, you’re my guy, I’ll tell you. I was with Adele.”

He looked confused.

“Adele? Who’s that?”

“Folake.”

“Hahaha,” Kelvin laughed.

“I always knew you liked that girl, but you kept denying it. She’s a fine wine though, so you went to her place or you took her out?”

“Actually, she took me out,” I said with pride.

“Wow, see love.”

“And I still went to her place, but you won’t believe what I found out…”

“What’s that?” Kelvin asked.

“You know that girl we saw…”

“Yeah, Michelle?”

“Yes, she is Folake’s best friend.”

His jaw dropped open and he was mute for some seconds.

“Seriously? Woah! Wait! So they know each other?”

“That’s the painful reality.”

“Does that mean that you like two best friends?”

“I don’t know man, but I’m finding it hard making a choice, I think I want the both of them.”

“That’s my guy!” David said pulling me into a handshake.

“See, you can’t be eating only one type of food. Taste the variety of life, you only live once,” he said, smiling sheepishly.

I knew Kelvin would say such, he was a good friend in a bad way. He kept raining praises on me and congratulating me for finally becoming a man. He was one hell of a friend.

Suddenly, there was a notification on his phone.

“Jesus!” he shouted as he read the details.

“No! I can’t believe it!” He screamed, as he fell to his knees.

Do you know that the more you react and comment on my posts, the easier it is for you to see it.
