Girls are the reason why we guys aspire and work assiduously to be their Somto and not Chuks...And they end up calling us jerk and callous....Una never see anything.!!

"Yes but it's not what you think—there's...there's nothing going on between us." I lied.
"Nothing? what do you take me for, a fool?! " he barked.
"Listen dear, Somto and I are just friends but he has a huge crush on me that's why he keeps sending me love text messages, I've warned him several times to stop sending me such messages because I already have a boyfriend but he has refused to stop." I burst into tears to make him feel sorry for me and it worked to an extent. He calmed down "Why didn't you tell me? why did you lie about him being your cousin?"
"Because I didn't want to cause any trouble between you guys—but I swear, there's nothing going on between us. why do you think I never replied any of his text messages?"(luckily for me, I do not reply text messages, just whatsapp messages and calls, it's a habit I developed in secondary school)
"I never saw any reply." he muttered.
"So you see—I'm not cheating on you." I said sobbing.
He heaved a sigh of relief and placed his hand on my shoulder "I'm sorry—I shouldn't have jumped into conclusions like that.I'm really sorry baby please forgive me." He enveloped me in his arms and I embraced him warmly. 'Phew—narrow escape' I thought.
I pulled out of the embrace and poked his nose playfully. "Don't ever doubt me again."
"I won't I promise, can I walk you home?"
I wanted to say yes immediately then I remembered that Somto was waiting for me outside my hostel according to his text. If Chuks met him there, hell would definitely break loose so I smiled and said "No baby—don't bother, I can go home myself, I'll call you later." I kissed him and we parted ways.
I heaved a sigh of relief 'that was so close, really really close!' I muttered to myself. 'I have to be more careful next time, I may not be able to talk myself out of trouble next time.I'm running out of lies to tell.'
I looked back to make sure Chuks wasn't following me because I had seen many movies in which a jealous boyfriend secretly follows his girlfriend home and catches her red-handed with another guy. I didn't want that to be my case, Chuks could never find out about Somto and vice versa. But having told Chuks that Somto was bothering me (which was a lie), I feared that he would confront him whenever and wherever he saw him again. I could imagine him running into Somto on campus and asking him 'why do you keep texting my girlfriend even after she told you she has a boyfriend?' or 'why are you pestering my girl when she has made it clear to you that she doesn't want you?' I sincerely prayed that nothing like that would ever happen. the last thing I wanted was to be stuck in the middle of a brawl between two guys.
When I got to my hostel, Somto was sitting outside. He smiled the moment he saw me and I smiled awkwardly in return. "How long have you been waiting?"
"About twenty minutes."
"Sorry about that—can I make it up to you?"
"Yeah." he smiled seductively "You can make it up to me by having lunch with me."
I giggled "you're such a charmer. I'll go with you but please let's not go too far from here, infact there's a nice restaurant at the shopping complex behind this hostel—let's go there." I said hastily, pulling his arm.
"hold on miss—why don't you wanna go somewhere nice with me, are you ashamed of being seen with me in public?" he feigned annoyance.
"No not at all—I just feel very tired, I can't go far." I caressed his hand.
"OK, we'll go wherever you like."
At the restaurant, we ran into my best friend Sonia and her boyfriend Chris. Sonia and I had drifted apart since the beginning of our second year. "Hi." I greeted her awkwardly. She rolled her eyes. "Can we talk—Somto give me a minute." I said ignoring her rudeness. "OK, Chris give me a minute." she scoffed.
We walked outside together. "I guess you and that Chuks guy didn't work out...your new guy is cute though. isn't he the one you were crazy about in secondary school?"
"Chuks and I..." I shrugged "well we haven't really broken broken up."
She widened her eyes in surprise "So that guy in there isn't your boyfriend...hmm too bad."
"He is."
"I don't understand...you're still with Chuks right? "
"Yes—it's complicated."
"So you're dating two guys at the same time?" she twisted her lips in disgust "I may have lost my virginity at a young age but at least I never double dated, what you're doing is absolutely horrible and unfair. I can't stand cheaters, I'm going back inside." She eyed me and walked back in. I was quite surprised, I thought Sonia was way worse than me but even she didn't support my decision to keep the two boys I loved in my life.
When I got back inside, I was in a foul mood. I didn't touch my food, I was in deep thought. "Baby what's wrong?" Somto asked concerned. "Nothing I just lost my appetite."
"Did your friend say something bad outside?"
"No, it has nothing to do with her—I'm sorry can we go home?"
He looked really upset "Fine." he said without looking at me "I need to study anyway." We left the restaurant and he walked me back to my hostel without saying a word to me. Sonia stared at us angrily as we walked out, I wondered what was running through her mind. I thought she would be happy to find out that I finally got Somto, afterall she was one of the few people who knew about my feelings for him in secondary school. It would have probably been better if I told her that Chuks and I were over, now she knew my secret and we weren't even friends anymore. 'What if she told Chuks?' I thought in horror.

'No she wouldn't do that—she's definitely not a snitch.' I assured myself.
I switched off my phone for the rest of that day cause I was tired of all the drama surrounding my life. I began to regret meeting Somto that day at the ATM, he was better off in my head as a fantasy boyfriend and should have remained that way. He should never have come into my life because if he hadn't, I would have been happy with Chuks and my life wouldn't be so complicated. I hated having to sneak around and cook up lies all the time, it was exhausting.
The following day, I went to lectures as usual. I wasn't planning to see anyone that day, I needed a break from both guys. I just wanted to be alone or better still, hang out with my female friends. I went to the cafeteria with two of my course mates, Angel and Osas. We were having drinks and talking about the latest gists on campus when Somto showed up from nowhere. I was quite surprised and kinda annoyed, 'did he have to ruin my little break from all the relationship drama in my life?' I thought angrily.
He greeted my course mates and flashed his charming smile. Angel couldn't stop staring at him and licking her lips, "Hey—eyes off my boyfriend." I joked, snapping her out of her daydream. "He's hot! but I thought you were with Chuks—what happened na?you guys have been all over each other since that fresher's dinner night and everyone in class still thinks you guys are gonna get married someday." Osas remarked, laughing innocently.
My heart leaped and Somto's countenance changed instantly.He looked confused "Babe what's she talking about?" Never has he sounded so serious since we met. I was dumbfounded "Uhm—we need to get out of here right now." I said hastily, pulling him outside with me. He yanked my hand away from his arm when we got outside. "What was that girl talking about? who's Chuks?! " he yelled.
"Calm down—you'll cause a scene." I whispered, trembling.
"I'll calm down when you tell me what I need to know."
"She was talking about my ex-boyfriend." I lied
"I don't believe that!" he barked "I'm neither deaf nor stupid, I know what I heard so don't lie to me."
"I'm telling the truth—Chuks is my ex-boyfriend."
Somto was about to raise his voice at me once more when I heard a familiar voice behind us "So now I'm your ex-boyfriend?" I turned back and I received the shock of my life. Chuks was standing right there and Sonia was with him. She was holding her waist and eyeing me furiously.
"What's going on here?" Somto asked gripping my left hand furiously.
"Hey you—take your filthy hands off my girlfriend!" Chuks barked, freeing me from Somto's strong grip.
"Who the hell are you? " he asked turning to Chuks.
"I'm Jane's boyfriend." he made sure to emphasize the word 'boyfriend'
Somto scoffed "Is this a joke or what?"
"No it's not." Sonia cut in. She walked up to us, gave me a deathly stare and continued "This filthy human has been playing games with both of you."
I felt like slapping her "How dare you! I'll never forgive you for this...I thought we were friends."
She scoffed "friends? we stopped being friends a long time ago."
I looked at Chuks, he was in tears while Somto was staring hard at me. I didn't know whom to approach first. Chuks broke the silence "Jane—If someone had told me that you would do this to me, I wouldn't have believed them..."

I tried to speak "I'm so..."
"Let me finish!" he barked "Do you have any idea how far I was willing to go to please you? do you know how many times I went to bed hungry because of you? " he wasn't crying anymore, he was furious.
"I didn't mean for any of this to happen—things just got complicated." I pleaded."
Somto spoke after a few minutes of silence "How long has this been going on? how long have you been fooling me? " he was breathing so heavily I thought he was going to pounce on me any minute. "Somto listen I.."
"Why are you apologising to him? " Chuks interrupted angrily.
This angered Somto "Guy wetin dey worry you? nor vex me oo." he remarked angrily.
"Listen Somto or whatever you call yourself—this is between me and my girlfriend. you were nothing but her side nigga, accept it or leave it." snapped Chuks.
Things were getting heated and people began to troop out of the cafeteria to watch the free nollywood movie that was about to unfold before their very eyes. I caught sight of Angel and Osas standing among the crowd of students. 'This is so embarrassing—this is gonna be an everlasting disgrace.' I thought painfully.
Somto and Chuks continued arguing "How dare you refer to me as a side nigga, do you know what Jane and I have been through together?" Somto retorted.
"I met her when she was still a fresher, we've been together for so long.how on earth did you get into the picture?"
"If you've been with her since forever, how come I was the one who deflowered her? " Somto asked angrily. Everyone gasped including me. did he just tell Chuks in front of everyone that he deflowered me?! 'that's so childish.' I thought angrily 'real men don't kiss and tell.' Chuks faced me, I could see intense pain and disbelief in his eyes. "What did he just say? "
I tried to speak but only air came out of my mouth. He gripped me "Are you deaf? tell me I didn't hear this idiot right! "
I tried to say something but before I could open my mouth, Somto landed a thunderous slap on Chuks' face. "Who are you calling an idiot?! you slowpoke." he turned and looked at me with fury in his eyes "this is all your fault Jane—you're officially my worst mistake." I felt a stinging pain in my heart as he walked away. Chuks who was just recovering from the dirty slap, picked up a stone and threw it at him angrily. The small stone hit his neck and he turned back angrily.
"You bastard!" Chuks screamed "You wanna fight right?" The crowd began murmuring in excitement. I could hear some students screaming "fight! fight! fight! fight! "
My heart nearly jumped into my mouth 'this is getting really scary, I had to step in.'
I ran up to Chuks and held his hand, "Please don't do this—you don't wanna risk getting expelled over such a small matter."
"Small matter? you call your infidelity a small matter." he replied in a murderous tone.
"Don't beg him! " Somto yelled "Let him come and fight." he too sounded like he was about to kill someone. Chuks pushed me aside and threw a punch at Somto. The punch split his upper lip and blood trickled out. I could hear cheers from the crowd. "Someone please call the security men!" I yelled desperately as Somto spat blood and gripped Chuks by his collar. He landed a punch on his left chin, the punch sent Chuks sprawling on the ground. Just as he was about to get up and continue the 'punch party', two uniformed security officers arrived at the scene and the crowd of students that had gathered eagerly at the scene disengaged quickly, no one wanted to be taken as an eyewitness. One of the men held Somto "You sabi fight abi?" he remarked sarcastically. The other helped Chuks up and dusted his trousers. "Both of you are coming with us—including the young lady." he said calmly "instead of una to face book, una dey fight for woman." the sarcastic one remarked.
"This isn't over—watch your back." Chuks whispered to Somto as we were all led away by the security men.

At the security office, while the two male security guards tried their best to settle the matter amicably, the female among them rained abuses on me. She said so many horrible things to me "Ashawo...i just pity your mama. only you, two boys. na so your toto dey scratch you?"
I buried my head in shame as one of the male officers giggled. "After listening to all of you carefully, it's safe to conclude that the girl is the biggest culprit here... I would have sent you all to the school's disciplinary committee but that may lead to your expulsion so I won't do that, instead I will advise you as a father to leave here in peace and face your studies squarely henceforth. Your parents didn't send you here to mess around with the opposite sex, focus on getting your degree for now, after that you can think of dating and marriage. Is that clear? "
"Yes sir. " we replied in unison.
"Is not by saying yes sir.. " the woman cut in rudely "Are you sure you can keep your yansh in one place?" she said eyeing me furiously.
Tears began to trickle down my face, her insulting remarks were just unbearable. Chuks and Somto walked out and went their separate ways while I stood there crying. The kind male officer moved towards me and was about to place his hand on me, when the woman shouted "Bayo nor touch am ooo—this girl na winsh. she dey use men play ball. " she turned to me "Oya disappear from here before I change my mind and take you to the disciplinary committee."
I looked at her with teary eyes and ran out without saying a word. I went to my hostel feeling devastated. Now almost everyone in school thought I was a LovePeddler. I knew that in no time, the story would travel round like wildfire and then I would be unable to show my face in public. I wasn't wrong at all, despite staying at home for three days hoping the situation would die down, the day I stepped out, curious eyes stared at me wherever I went and tongues wagged. All my female friends and roommates stopped associating with me, all except Lola—the same girl I had shut down rudely when she tried to advise me.
I cried in her arms as she consoled me one afternoon "please don't say 'I told you so' just tell me that everything will be alright." she sighed "But I told you so, didn't I? you should have ended your silly games a long time ago, you could have prevented all this embarrassment."
"Do you think I'm ever going to come out of this? " I asked, still sobbing.
"I hope so but—" she had a worried expression on her face.
"But what? " I asked, sitting up abruptly.
"I don't know if it's true but I heard some really disturbing news on campus today." she whispered.
"What did you hear?! " I asked curiously
"Bring your voice down! " she whispered " I heard that Chuks recently joined a dangerous confraternity in order to get a good revenge on Somto."
I gasped in shock and horror. "Jesus! is he planning to kill him? " I yelled.
"I don't know what he's planning but tell Somto to watch his back—he's a promising young man, I don't want to see him dead because of your foolishness."
Somto was leaving for his I.T in a month's time, I had to warn him to be very careful but I hadn't spoken to him since the day of the incident involving him and Chuks. I grabbed my phone and dialed his number with shaky hands. I was scared to death, I never imagined that a handsome, quiet and intelligent young man like Chuks would go as far as joining a confraternity just to get revenge. I tried calling Somto severally but he rejected all my calls. I decided to text him, he deserved to know what was coming for him. "Chuks is after your life—please watch your back!! " I texted. I was sure he received the text because I got a delivery report.
Meanwhile I had to continue attending lectures despite the gossiping and ridicule that trailed me wherever I went because my grades were suffering terribly. I needed to make a C in all my courses at least because in my department, a D in any course meant automatic transfer to a lower department like Fishery or Botany. I tried as much as possible to put everything behind me but I couldn't. I was constantly plagued by the fact that Somto's life was in serious danger because of me and that Chuks had been pushed into cultism which was definitely going to ruin his life and reputation. All these wouldn't have happened if I simply told Somto that I had a boyfriend. My inability to get over the crush I had on him despite having a boyfriend has landed us all in a hot mess.
I tried to contact Chuks and possibly convince him to forget about everything and move on with his life but all my efforts to reach him failed. He completely blocked me out of his life. One evening, Lola ran up to me panting. "What's happening?!" I asked gripping her, there was fear and horror in my voice.
She tried to speak but she needed to catch her breath "Somto...Somto...." she stammered. I tightened my grip on her arm "What happened to Somto?!" I yelled, bursting into tears.
"He...he...he got shot!"

"Shot! " I screamed. "By who? "
She squinted "Who else...who else if not Chuks? " she sounded like she was about to cry. I was speechless, the world became blank before my very eyes. I stood like a Zombie until Lola poked me "What are we going to do?! "she screamed.
"Where is Somto and how did you even find out?" I asked in a strangled voice. She looked at me like I was out of my mind. "He's in UBTH... why are you so calm? " she asked looking flustered. "Let's go!" she screamed pulling me by the hand. We flagged down the first taxi we saw and headed straight to University of Benin Teaching Hospital. We met about six other students there and they informed us that Somto was in the accident and emergency ward.
I was devastated but not a single drop of tear came out from my eyes, I was obviously still in denial about the news. "What about Chuks?" I asked hastily "He tried to run away but he was mobbed by some angry students, he was later rescued by some security men and handed over to the police." one of the students replied.
"He's going in for attempted murder—or murder pending Somto's survival." another student quickly added. I gasped, it suddenly dawned on me that I wasn't dreaming, everything was real! Somto's life was hanging on a thread, Chuks was in police custody and I was right here in a hospital.

I rushed into the waiting room panting and sweating profusely. One would expect me to be drenched in tears after all that had happened but I just didn't feel the urge to cry. I was overwhelmed with anger, regret and fear. I was angry at Chuks for trying to kill Somto and I regretted ever getting involved with either of them. I also feared for Somto's life, all these had happened because of me. if I hadn't loved both of them, Somto would not be in the hospital fighting for his life and Chuks wouldn't be in police custody for attempted murder. I caught sight of Somto being wheeled out of the A&E ward by two nurses and three surgeons . I ran up to one of the nurses and grabbed her arm "Where are you taking him to?!...is he going to be alright?" I asked, I could feel tears welling up in my eyes. She stopped and urged the surgeons and the other nurse to continue without her. "Who are you? are you related to the patient?" she asked calmly. "Yes I am...is he going to be alright?" I asked bursting into tears. She held my hand softly "He's still alive but I can't say anything else for now—just pray he makes it through the surgery they are about to perform on him." She walked away, leaving me all alone. Lola was nowhere to be found, she must have lost her way while trying to run after me(Ubth is a very big and complicated hospital).
I sat on the floor and wept even more, I released all my pent up emotions that very moment. I didn't care about the people staring at me. Suddenly, a doctor walked up to me and tapped my shoulder. I was startled by her touch, I quickly wiped my eyes with the back of my hand. "You're disturbing our patients." she said frowning.
"I'm sorry." I muttered standing up. I was led to the waiting room where I sat down with the friends and relatives of other patients. I was sobbing and begging God to spare Somto's life. I would never forgive myself if he died because of my mistake. "God please spare him—it's my fault, take me instead!" I pleaded desperately. I couldn't imagine what would happen if he lost his life. An intelligent 400level Mechanical engineering student preparing for his I.T, the only son of his parents for that matter! I would definitely die of immense guilt if he passed away. worst still, the whole school knew that I was partly responsible for what happened and his parents would definitely find out about it someday.
Lola finally found me after about twenty minutes. She was panting "I've been running around looking for you...any news? " she asked panting. "He was taken to the theater about twenty minutes ago." I replied without looking at her. My eyes were red and swollen from crying. She sat beside me "How are you feeling?"
"I don't know." I replied blankly
She placed her hand on my shoulders "Be strong—we'll pray for him, he will make it." I nodded and hot tears streamed down my face. "I will never be able to forgive myself for this." I cried until I fell asleep on the chair. I was jerked awake by the grunting of an old accident victim. I woke up and found Lola sleeping soundly. 'she's indeed a true friend' I muttered inwardly. I checked my watch, it's been over two hours now and still, there was no news of Somto. I walked back into the ward and saw the nurse I spoke with earlier, she was trying her best to pacify a huge woman dressed extravagantly in a red laced skirt and blouse. A huge gele stood perfectly on her head and her gold purse and shoes shone brightly in the ward. I walked closer to them and to my greatest surprise, I discovered that she was Somto's mother! I felt a lump in my throat, she must have taken a flight from Delta immediately she heard the news. Someone in school must have informed her—perhaps one of Somto's roommates did. She was sobbing and saying things like "Who must have done this?... my son is a quiet person, he doesn't look for trouble...all he cares about is his studies." Her phone rang and she picked it up. "Honey where are you?...our son is in the hospital fighting for his life and all you care about is business! if I don't see you here in the next one hour, don't bother to call me your wife again!" she hissed angrily. I wondered if she knew that her son was shot because of a girl—'she can't find me here, I can't let her find out about my involvement in the attempted murder of her son' I muttered. As I was about sneak back into the waiting room I heard the shrill voice of the nurse "Hey—where have you been?" I froze. "You're related to Somto Okoye right?"
Somto's mother squinted, she wore a confused look on her face "She's related to my son?—young lady who are you please? " she asked frowning.

Chuks has taken this too far, you never own a girl until you put a ring on it... U should always expect the worst in any relationship either dating or normal fwendship.
A cousin of mine just end his almost 5years relationship 'cos of genotype, anything can happen.
If you are taking any revenge at all, it should be on that bit*h, not a fellow man like you.
Bitches ain't loyal
