100. COUNTLESS


The memories of all the awful things I did to Jide, my friend, some years back all came rushing back into my shangoic brain like a tornado. I couldn't help but agree that am the cause of my own undoings. However his twisted way of getting vengeance against anyone that have wronged him might seem extreme, I realized have technically earned everything Jide has and had done to me.

Or tell me, what kind of friend am I? Eh? Judging by everything I did in the past?

But one piece is still missing from this puzzle....how Jide found out that I stole Lola from him?
How? How?
I rose up and began pacing the breadth and length of the room while lost in deep thought.

The question kept echoing continuously in my mind even after I'd returned Jide's diary to where I took it and laid flat on the bed, now staring at the ceiling as I kept on wondering how Jide knew back then that I duped him after snatching his dream girl away from him.

30mins I spent on that thinking task but still couldn't come up with anything as to how he knew.

The only reason I was even able to remember what I did to Jide back then was because the day Jide first asked me to help him toast Lola coincidentally falls in line with the day our Biology teacher made a funny mistake during his teaching period on that day. He wanted to write Biology as the subject on the chalkboard but instead he wrote Batistuta. It was later we found out the reason for his mistake was because the above named Argentine legend was among the goalscorers that defeated Nigeria in the worldcup match that was played between the two nations on the noon of the previous day of that said day. Since then, the man had gotten that nickname. Mr Batistuta.

After several minutes spent on trying to find the puzzle from my past misdeeds, I resigned myself to the fate of the unknown and slowly closed my eyes for sleep to consume my weary body.

*****

I can't really tell for how long I was asleep but it was the sound of my phone that brought me back from dreamland.

Pursuing the remaining sleep out of my eyes with the back of my hand, I slowly used my left hand to reach for my phone lying beside the second pillow and checked the I.d. It was Blessing.

"hello Darous....whats popping?" Came her soft voice.

"erm....am fine. Blessing...erm...hows Jide?" I queried expectantly now sitting properly.

"we thank Gawd...he woke up few hours ago...."

"whaaat?..." I shouted at the sound of that goodnews forgetting that I had to keep a low profile so I don't give Bella and Bianca the slightest hint of my presence in Jide's room.

"yes Darous...."

"wow!...thats goodnews....thats...thats really great...." I chuckled on for some moments before Blessing ended my chuckle trip with her next statement.

"I want to ask when you are coming here." She asked outrightly.

"why?...is something wrong?" I asked feeling slightly anxious.

"nope.... I just want to come home and pick some cloths and stuffs for both of us and you know, it won't be okay to leave him all alone here. He might wake up anytime." She explained.

"oh....I see.....erm...you know what, just give me till...." I paused to check the dial of the wall clock. "eleven. I will be with you by then." I stated assurely.

"ok bye..." She said obviously about to end the call but I quickly interjected with a question.

"wait Blessing...."

"what?"

"did he ask of me when he woke up?"

"who? Jide?"

"no...Donald Trump.... Answer me jor...." I said with a slight angry tone.

"sure...he's the one that even asked to see you...he said he's very eager to see you." She stated and some moments of silence escorted her last speech before she spoke again. "can I end it now? Na borrow credit ah dey use o."

"yeap...yeap....sure....see you later." I managed to say.

"ok. Thank you Darous....Jide is so lucky to have you."

"how I wish thats true. After everything I did to him in the past...." I murmured that to myself after she ended the call.

I had barely ended the call when two angry knocks landed rapidly on the door. I jerked back frighteningly confused on who might be at the doorstep and what could have warranted such heavy knocks by that hour of the day.

The knock landed again this time but it was Bella's angry voice that accompanied it. Then it dawned on me that my earlier noise had Judas iscarioted me. In simpler terms, it sold me out.

"come outside you bloody bastard...you can't hide in there forever..." came again with another level of anger.

If there's one thing I have been able to learn since the inception of all my troubles, its how to man up to any new challenge. Knowing fully well that hiding inside the room won't make this descendant of mother Eve go away, I quickly dial the number of courage and boldness to come and help me on this new ordeal have gotten myself into and fortunately the beating rate of my heart slowed down gradually just seconds later.

"oya...Chisom!" I said to myself just before I opened the door and stepped outside.

***

"after everything I did for you Darous, how could you have payed me back by sleeping with my sister?" That was the same statement Bella had been repeating the moment she saw me step out of Jide's room.

The weather was quite cool and was getting ready to rain when I stepped outside and she met my emergence with series of fist-hitting on my chest as she continue to sob and voice out her anger on me.

She did managed to let me know how her sister had reacted bitterly when she showed Bianca my picture on her phone.

All my effort to make her believe that I didn't mean to hurt her or her sister either proved futile and all I could do was keep quite and let her battery of anger shut down by itself.

Few moments later, it did shut down, cos all she did henceforth was sniffing. I then pulled her closer and escorted her to her room where we began a sobless and angerless discussion.

"I already told you that I didn't know you guys are siblings.....I swear to gawd of...." I was still saying when I was interrupted by someone shouting my name from the compound.

"Brother Darous!!....please come o....I need your help ooo...."

I rushed outside immediately and nearly collided with a woman known as Mama Joy who was panting heavily at the door steps.

"follow me please...abeg..." She said and began running out of the compound and I instantly followed suit.

We got to the gate of her house and I quickly stopped her from entering the compound before I spoke.

"Mama J, whats the matter....you can't just expect me to enter here without knowing whats going on?" I asked curiously holding the panting woman by the shoulder.

She managed to calm down a bit before she spoke out.
"my daughter said you once...told her that you sabi kill snake wella..."

"ah....that one....yes I did...." I answered instantly but before I could tell her that I was only joking with her daughter on the day I saw her crying bitterly infront of a chemist shop because she stepped on a very big earthworm that looks like a snake. I'd tried to pacify the girl but she won't stop crying and it was until I had to tell her that I am an experience snake killer and that I often command most of the snakes I caught to kneel down and raise up their hands for thirty minutes before I kill them that the teenage girl eventually stopped crying.

"thank God I found you at home."

"wait....don't tell me you call me here because of snake." I asked with a nervous look.

"thats exactly the reason why I came to call you. two big cobra dey the back of our poultry now now, dey don dey disturb my chickens for sometime now......abeg help me...." She ended with almost one knee on the ground.

'chisos! This na serious palava o. Me wey be say na temple run mode ah dey always put myself whenever I see snake na im this woman come dey beg to come help am kill snake!...ah! Wetin ah wan do o...how I wan tey escape this palava o...ah Joy, na teenage thunder go strike your left yansh o.' Those are the kind of thoughts that was playing in my mind during the short period the woman and I spent at the gate.

Before I knew it, Mama Joy had grabbed my hand and began dragging me inside. "lets hurry up before the snakes escape again."

"wait..." I said wriggling my hand out of her grip. "I need to go back home and get a weapon."

"which type of weapon?" She asked eagerly.

"erm....cutlass.."

"we have it here...lets go and get it..."

'ah...you have it? Chai...ah don die today.'

"wait...you said the snake na cobra?" I asked trying to use a delaying tactics maybe the snakes would have ran away before we get there.

"yes na. 2 Cobras"

"spell it please. Kobra or co-orbra?"

"which one be spelling again? Please nao...I will even pay you some money if you help me kill it. Pleeaase."

"its not that I can't kill it, but I need to know the type of snake am dealing with. There is Kobra and Cobra. One is immune to cutlass while the other is immune to gun." I paused to clear my throat. "There was a day my father's grandfather came home very sick after he had gone out to help one of his neighbours to battle a ckobra. We used all the medicine in the house but we were unable to heal him. He gave up the ghost after three years of scrotum infection. Same thing happened to my mummy's grandfather. We tried everything to heal him also but we couldn't. Samething happened to my elder sister father's grandfather... Samething happened to my younger sister father's grandfa....."

"am deeply sorry for your loss...but please lets go. I promise nothing will happen to you."

"how can you promise me safety when you can't even protect your own chickens...abeg shift make I go check if the stubborn snake still dey there." I stated all that in my mind as I followed her to the poultry where she handed me a big cutlass and pointed a corner to me where a big Gee-pee tank was located.
"the snake is at the back of that tank." She said and moved back.

I took a deep breath and prayed silently that the snake shouldn't be there again.

[T.C.T.L.S.S] To Cut The Long Story Short, You know that awkward moment when you start regretting ever boasting and telling a small girl like Emmanuella that you were very good at mathematics when you were still in secondary school just because you wanted her to face her studies squarely instead of running around the neighbourhood senselessly? And the next day she came back from school and asked you to help her solve a simultaneous linear equation in front of her elder sister that you've been crushing on? That was exactly the kind of regrettable thoughts that was running inside my brain as I slowly approach the Gee-pee tank where Mama Joy assumed the snakes to be and I could hear the woman is already praying fervently with each step I take forward.

'A confluence is a place where two or more rivers meet, wetin we go come call a place where two big cobras meet?' I thought.

Just few inches away from the Gee-pee tank, my phone rang out and before I could even bring it out, one big cobra crawled slowly into view from behind the Gee-pee tank and positioned its head at the small hole beneath the fence blocks that linked to the bush outside.

Cold shivers ran down my spine and I swallowed hard at the sight of that sneaky creature.

The next thing I knew was that, it took me less than eight seconds to get out of the compound and started running madly towards my house. I didn't even let my collision with Mama Joy to even stop me from breaking Usain Bolts record as the fastest man alive.

Umbrella cannot stop the rain, but it allows us to stand and walk in it. So also Confidence doesn't guarantee success, but it gives us the power to face any challenges.

'Darous, with a little bit of confidence, you could have killed that snake succesfully before it escaped.' my mind mentored after I'd gotten home.

***

4hrs later, I was sitting beside Jide's bed inside the hospital, patiently waiting for him to finish the meal I bought for him. Blessing after my arrival had taken the chance to go home.

After Blessing had left, Jide confessed and narrated to me with a teary face the details of every vengeance mission he had taken against me since the day Lola had easily convinced him that am truly a bad backstabbing friend.

I did the same by narrating my own misdeeds to him before we both begged eachother for forgiveness.

I should have told him about my recent encounter with Favour (who claimed to be pregnant for Jide) but for some unknown reasons, I decided not to. I concluded in my mind to convince Favour to meet Jide and explain things to him herself and to help them reconcile with eachother. Atleast, I realized from that moment we spent crying together that Jide was now a totally new being.

Back to the present. I handed him the drugs the doctor prescribed for him and he swallowed it after which he drank a glass cup of water.

"thank you Darous....you're indeed a good friend...." Jide said after eating and now resting his head on the wall behind him. The needle connecting the water drip to his left hand was still there likewise the big bandage on his forehead.

"eh, you no dey hear word ni? I said stop thanking me...." I said with a frown.

"why shouldn't I?..." Jide cuts in with a serious tone. "how many people can do what you've been doing for me even after you found out about every bad thing wey I don do to you?"

"guy, don't forget I hurt you first...." I insisted.

"and you too shouldn't forget what I did to you before that..." He countered.

"thats why am telling you its pointless of you to be thanking me....seriously I should be the grateful one here...." I reiterated

"why? What makes you say that?" He asked, adjusting his left hand to a more comfy place before letting out a fizzle sound.

"hmmm.....am just grateful because fate still gave us the chance to make amends....."

"hun...thats right" He attested shaking his head slowly.

"guy, lets just be happy you are now ok and move on from there" I said and gulped down the remaining 5alive on the stool beside me.

Some moments of silence escorted my last statement as we both engaged in deep thoughts before Jide spoke again.

"anyway, thanks for everything..."

"thunder wan fire you?" I asked in a funny tone.

"chai my friend, you never end your relationship with that nonsense weapon? You suppose don upgrade now"

"no...atleast not until Nepa starts giving us regular lights."

"ahahah! Bad boy. Thank Gawd say ah no die... I swear ah for miss you die for heaven."

"see mumu...infact you deserve an award called Mumu'dor...who tell you say you go make heaven if you die?"

"you self na idiot. How you tey know say ah no go make am.? When ah still holy pas you?"

"wait, you think say devil go gree make you, one of his trained and most skilled agent sneak into heaven? Ogbeni forget that one, we both know say Hell will be boring without you jor." I said and we both busted into an uncontrollable laughter before we were interrupted by the emergence of a nurse.
"I can see your friend here has finally elevated your low spirit Mr Jide." The female nurse commented as soon as she finished checking the remaing drips on the hanger and adjusting its tap.

She stood infront of me on her sylph stature as I flashed her a smile. "you are?" She asked

"Darous." I replied with a smarmy smile.

"hmmm...am Amaka...am incharge of attending to your friend" She said with another smile.

"thanks alot nurse Amaka....I can see my friend already owes you his life...maybe you should give me your bank account so I can transfer his life to you?" I asked trying to take a dig at Jide. I took a glance at him and saw he was already dozing off.

"hehehe..." nurse Amaka laughed out loud. "funny you...tell me, how did you managed to do what we the nurses and even his girlfriend has failed to do for the past 5hours?"

"and whats that?" I queried.

"I mean getting your friend to cheer up. Tell me how you did it." She asked with a smiling face but before I could come up with any funny reply, another nurse enterred and our attention was shifted to her as she moved closer to nurse Amaka.

"what is the matter nurse Bose? New emergency?" She queried.

"no...not atall...the emergency patient we have is being handled by the doctor and other nurses..." She explained.

"I see..." Stated Nurse Amaka. "then why are you here? Its not yet time for your rounds, is it?"

"no...erm... Nurse Amaka, that woman is here o and she's looking for you."

"which woman?" Nurse Amaka asked with a confused tone.

"I mean your private patient....the woman you asked to come today for her anti-natal....." She explained further.

"oh!...." Lamented Nurse Amaka as she began heading towards the door."Mrs Adedoyin.." She turned around to face Nurse Bose. "you mean she's here already? I thought I told her to come by 2pm. Why's she here so early?" She asked and didn't wait for any answer before walking out of sight while Nurse Bose remained standing and apparently starring at my dozing friend. I shifted my gaze to Jide and rose up. I beckoned the nurse to join me in laying Jide flat on the bed so that he can have a comfortable rest and she did.

"thank you." She said after we'd succesfully laid Jide on the bed and the latter had began snoring hard.

"what? Thank me? For what?" I asked.

"for helping me with the patient now." She replied.

"ah! Phew! Do you know that this idiot you called your patient is my best friend?" I asked while staring directly in her eyes.

"hmmm...I didn't know you have an idiot as a friend...."

"hehe....but please don't tell him I said that o..." I said in a playful manner.

"ofcourse not...." She replied, obviously taking my words seriously. "anyway thanks alot."

"eh, look here, I won't stand and let you continue thanking me for doing nothing." I said in low stern tones.

"are you angry?"

"what if I am?"

"then I will give you a anti-angry injection." She said with a sexy smirk which on a normal day would have gotten my d!ck erected but seeing as I was only catching fun just to pass time till Blessing comes back and take over watching Jide, I let it slide.

"let me be going jare...nurse Amaka will soon be shouting my name now as if am the only nurse in this hospital." She said and turned around and began marching towards the exit. Just as she was about to fade from sight, I quickly remembered the name of the woman she said was waiting to see nurse Amaka so I hurriedly called her back.

"eh! Nurse Bose...please just a second." She turned around and waited for me to join her at the corridor of Jide's ward.

"hope no problem?" She asked with a slight uneasy stare.

"not atall."

"ok?"

"please who's the woman you said wanted to see Nurse Amaka?" I asked.

"you mean Mrs Adedoyin?"

"yess...." I replied.

"what about her? Do you know her?" She asked with a raised eyebrow.

"I think I do...please can you describe how she looks for me? Maybe she's the one am looking for." I stated and she gave me a description that fully correlates with the same Adedoyin have been avoiding.

"She's the one, please again, can you tell me what she's doing here?"

"you know I can't do that? Its un-ethical and un-proffessional of me to do" She claimed.

"huh-hoh...you also know that it will be un-friendly to me as your patients friend and also un-reasonable to me if you refuse?"

She let out a sigh and I gave out a victory smile when she said "ok. I'll tell you." and so she did.

The next thing I know after She told me all I need to know about Adedoyin was that I got home, and started packing all my properties from my room, after which I ran to the garrage to hire a truck where I started onloading all my belongings and few hours later, I was already on my way to Ekiti state.

But on the way, I couldn't stop asking myself this question;

"how am I sure am not infected already? Eh? Abi which kind life be this self?"

Adedoyin is carrying two things in her body. One is Pregnancy, while the other is??

Well, you can GUESS IT!

The next thing I knew was that, it took me less than eight seconds to get out of the compound and started running madly towards my house. I didn't even let my collision with Mama Joy to even stop me from breaking Usain Bolts record as the fastest man alive.

Umbrella cannot stop the rain, but it allows us to stand and walk in it. So also Confidence doesn't guarantee success, but it gives us the power to face any challenges.

'Darous, with a little bit of confidence, you could have killed that snake succesfully before it escaped.' my mind mentored after I'd gotten home.

***

4hrs later, I was sitting beside Jide's bed inside the hospital, patiently waiting for him to finish the meal I bought for him. Blessing after my arrival had taken the chance to go home.

After Blessing had left, Jide confessed and narrated to me with a teary face the details of every vengeance mission he had taken against me since the day Lola had easily convinced him that am truly a bad backstabbing friend.

I did the same by narrating my own misdeeds to him before we both begged eachother for forgiveness.

I should have told him about my recent encounter with Favour (who claimed to be pregnant for Jide) but for some unknown reasons, I decided not to. I concluded in my mind to convince Favour to meet Jide and explain things to him herself and to help them reconcile with eachother. Atleast, I realized from that moment we spent crying together that Jide was now a totally new being.

Back to the present. I handed him the drugs the doctor prescribed for him and he swallowed it after which he drank a glass cup of water.

"thank you Darous....you're indeed a good friend...." Jide said after eating and now resting his head on the wall behind him. The needle connecting the water drip to his left hand was still there likewise the big bandage on his forehead.

"eh, you no dey hear word ni? I said stop thanking me...." I said with a frown.

"why shouldn't I?..." Jide cuts in with a serious tone. "how many people can do what you've been doing for me even after you found out about every bad thing wey I don do to you?"

"guy, don't forget I hurt you first...." I insisted.

"and you too shouldn't forget what I did to you before that..." He countered.

"thats why am telling you its pointless of you to be thanking me....seriously I should be the grateful one here...." I reiterated

"why? What makes you say that?" He asked, adjusting his left hand to a more comfy place before letting out a fizzle sound.

"hmmm.....am just grateful because fate still gave us the chance to make amends....."

"hun...thats right" He attested shaking his head slowly.

"guy, lets just be happy you are now ok and move on from there" I said and gulped down the remaining 5alive on the stool beside me.

Some moments of silence escorted my last statement as we both engaged in deep thoughts before Jide spoke again.

"anyway, thanks for everything..."

"thunder wan fire you?" I asked in a funny tone.

"chai my friend, you never end your relationship with that nonsense weapon? You suppose don upgrade now"

"no...atleast not until Nepa starts giving us regular lights."

"ahahah! Bad boy. Thank Gawd say ah no die... I swear ah for miss you die for heaven."

"see mumu...infact you deserve an award called Mumu'dor...who tell you say you go make heaven if you die?"

"you self na idiot. How you tey know say ah no go make am.? When ah still holy pas you?"

"wait, you think say devil go gree make you, one of his trained and most skilled agent sneak into heaven? Ogbeni forget that one, we both know say Hell will be boring without you jor." I said and we both busted into an uncontrollable laughter before we were interrupted by the emergence of a nurse.
"I can see your friend here has finally elevated your low spirit Mr Jide." The female nurse commented as soon as she finished checking the remaing drips on the hanger and adjusting its tap.

She stood infront of me on her sylph stature as I flashed her a smile. "you are?" She asked

"Darous." I replied with a smarmy smile.

"hmmm...am Amaka...am incharge of attending to your friend" She said with another smile.

"thanks alot nurse Amaka....I can see my friend already owes you his life...maybe you should give me your bank account so I can transfer his life to you?" I asked trying to take a dig at Jide. I took a glance at him and saw he was already dozing off.

"hehehe..." nurse Amaka laughed out loud. "funny you...tell me, how did you managed to do what we the nurses and even his girlfriend has failed to do for the past 5hours?"

"and whats that?" I queried.

"I mean getting your friend to cheer up. Tell me how you did it." She asked with a smiling face but before I could come up with any funny reply, another nurse enterred and our attention was shifted to her as she moved closer to nurse Amaka.

"what is the matter nurse Bose? New emergency?" She queried.

"no...not atall...the emergency patient we have is being handled by the doctor and other nurses..." She explained.

"I see..." Stated Nurse Amaka. "then why are you here? Its not yet time for your rounds, is it?"

"no...erm... Nurse Amaka, that woman is here o and she's looking for you."

"which woman?" Nurse Amaka asked with a confused tone.

"I mean your private patient....the woman you asked to come today for her anti-natal....." She explained further.

"oh!...." Lamented Nurse Amaka as she began heading towards the door."Mrs Adedoyin.." She turned around to face Nurse Bose. "you mean she's here already? I thought I told her to come by 2pm. Why's she here so early?" She asked and didn't wait for any answer before walking out of sight while Nurse Bose remained standing and apparently starring at my dozing friend. I shifted my gaze to Jide and rose up. I beckoned the nurse to join me in laying Jide flat on the bed so that he can have a comfortable rest and she did.

"thank you." She said after we'd succesfully laid Jide on the bed and the latter had began snoring hard.

"what? Thank me? For what?" I asked.

"for helping me with the patient now." She replied.

"ah! Phew! Do you know that this idiot you called your patient is my best friend?" I asked while staring directly in her eyes.

"hmmm...I didn't know you have an idiot as a friend...."

"hehe....but please don't tell him I said that o..." I said in a playful manner.

"ofcourse not...." She replied, obviously taking my words seriously. "anyway thanks alot."

"eh, look here, I won't stand and let you continue thanking me for doing nothing." I said in low stern tones.

"are you angry?"

"what if I am?"

"then I will give you a anti-angry injection." She said with a sexy smirk which on a normal day would have gotten my d!ck erected but seeing as I was only catching fun just to pass time till Blessing comes back and take over watching Jide, I let it slide.

"let me be going jare...nurse Amaka will soon be shouting my name now as if am the only nurse in this hospital." She said and turned around and began marching towards the exit. Just as she was about to fade from sight, I quickly remembered the name of the woman she said was waiting to see nurse Amaka so I hurriedly called her back.

"eh! Nurse Bose...please just a second." She turned around and waited for me to join her at the corridor of Jide's ward.

"hope no problem?" She asked with a slight uneasy stare.

"not atall."

"ok?"

"please who's the woman you said wanted to see Nurse Amaka?" I asked.

"you mean Mrs Adedoyin?"

"yess...." I replied.

"what about her? Do you know her?" She asked with a raised eyebrow.

"I think I do...please can you describe how she looks for me? Maybe she's the one am looking for." I stated and she gave me a description that fully correlates with the same Adedoyin have been avoiding.

"She's the one, please again, can you tell me what she's doing here?"

"you know I can't do that? Its un-ethical and un-proffessional of me to do" She claimed.

"huh-hoh...you also know that it will be un-friendly to me as your patients friend and also un-reasonable to me if you refuse?"

She let out a sigh and I gave out a victory smile when she said "ok. I'll tell you." and so she did.

The next thing I know after She told me all I need to know about Adedoyin was that I got home, and started packing all my properties from my room, after which I ran to the garrage to hire a truck where I started onloading all my belongings and few hours later, I was already on my way to Ekiti state.

But on the way, I couldn't stop asking myself this question;

"how am I sure am not infected already? Eh? Abi which kind life be this self?"

Adedoyin is carrying two things in her body. One is Pregnancy, while the other is??

Well, you can GUESS IT!
