Love Story: I Wish I Had Held Back ( Very Touching) by Popflair(m): 8:53am On Aug 22, 2015
Actually this is not really my own story but I just want u guys to have fun and learn from it while reading......
My name is Thomas Ochagla. There’s a
saying. “What can’t kill you can make you
stronger.” But the truth is action speaks
louder than mere words. I don’t know how
strong I will be coming out from this
predicament that I have found myself.
This all started about 2 years ago in my
youth service year in Kogi state. There was
this very good canteen not too far from
Yagba east local government council, where I
frequent often for my CDS. It was the aroma
that lured me to the place, the savory of
scented stew and fried meat, it was
irresistible, I couldn’t just evade myself from
the luscious captivity that overwhelmed me.
Perhaps, a simple restrain would have
changed history, would have saved me from
all these.
As I entered the canteen, I grabbed a plate
and stood on the queue salivating and
waiting for my turn. When it got to my turn,
before me was something more compelling
than the meal that I expected. My eyes got
locked in contact with the young lady who
was serving the meal. She was beautiful
beyond expression, I could hardly compose
myself and it took me some few seconds to
reboot. She then asked. “What food do you
want sir?” In fluent English.
I stuttered. “Give me….. rice N50, dodo N50
and 3 pieces of meat.”
I was going to pay and she refused to collect
the money. I didn’t understand the kind
gesture, I then insisted and she smiled at me
and said. “It’s okay, it’s on me.” I then took a
seat and started eating.
While I was eating, I noticed her looking at
me at some instance. It drove my curiosity
wild and I was eager to know her. She
sounded quite polished and she looked more
dignified than running a local canteen, I knew
there was more to it. As I was done, I went
to meet her and said to her. “Thank you very
much. My name is Thomas. can I know your
name?”
She giggled and said. “My name is Tope.” As
we both smiled at each other like teens
gripped in some high school crush.

So I left the place hoping to return the
following day. I got to my rented room and I
was still thinking of Tope. She was average
height, dark skinned and very attractive. Her
curves were at the right angle and her bursts
were an eye candy. I knew I needed
companion to quench my lust while I served
my country in the beautiful state of Kogi and
Tope just happened to fit into the picture.
Being a nerd and a slacker isn’t a thing to be
proud of. I had only had sex once, thanks to
Seun who took me clubbing then some chic
agreed to get down with me and at the end
made me pay N4,000…That wasn’t funny. I
felt I needed to lay claim of my very own pet,
a decision I soon regret.
The following day I went to the canteen, but
this time around I went there late.
Unfortunately food had finished, but the
good thing was that Tope had time to spare.
She was busy preparing to wash the dishes
and I didn’t hesitate to assist her. She didn’t
want me to get my hands dirty but I insisted.
I helped her in getting water and she was
thrilled that a corper would stoop so low
helping her with the dishes. Well, why
wouldn’t I, it granted me the avenue to view
her heavy kegs that jiggled as she was
washing the dishes.
Suddenly her mother appeared from a
distance, Tope sighted her and she said to
me. “Please hide, don’t let her see you.”
I then hid behind the canteen and after
about 15 minutes she left the place. Tope
then came to meet me and said. “Sorry
about it.”
I then said. “Its’s okay, no sweat. Your mom
is strict right?”
She said. “No she’s not. I am preparing for
JAMB exams and seeing me with a guy would
upset her.”
I then said to her. “Then why are you here
working in the canteen? You should be
attending lessons now.”
She said. “My elder sister is not feeling too
fine and she’s the one in charge of the
canteen. Yesterday was my first day here.”
I asked her. “What course do you intend to
study?”
She said. “Biochemistry.”
I said to her. “I finished with a first class in
Chemical Engineering. if you need any
assistance I will be glad to help you.”
She said. “Wow, that will be nice. I have a
problem with chemistry and physics. You
must be a genius.”
I laughed and said. “No I am not, I just love
to read my books a lot. It takes hard work
and persistence to be successful. My dad is a
Professor and my mom is a Judge, they really
encouraged me.”

We finished cleaning up and I decided to
walk her home which she agreed. As we
walked, we talked about our families and she
opened up about the challenges she faced
gaining admission, being the only child
among-st her sibbllings privileged to attend
higher institution. I was so bent in making
her pass her JAMB and I promised her I
would teach her through.
I convinced her to tell her mom she needed
to prepare for her exams and that she won’t
be able to continue with the running of the
canteen. The mom eventually succumbed
and she got a replacement. I made an
arrangement with Tope, for her to be coming
to my place 4:00pm Mondays to Fridays and
1:000pm on Saturdays, which she agreed. My
intentions were sincere, but with a little
thoughts of side attractions. In spite of
being attracted to her, I wanted her more
than anything to pass her JAMB exams this
time around.
Her first day at my place was an amazing
one. She brought me rice, dodo and 3 pieces
of meat. I was really touched and I felt she
truly cared for me. The most enthralling
thing she did again was, she washed all my
dirty clothes, including my boxers… And she
swept my room and arranged my stuffs. No
lady had done such to me except my mom. I
was moved by that and felt more obliged to
her. We couldn’t do any reading that day. So I
walked her home around 6:30pm.
I got to my room and it looked quite
different. Neat and very organized. I laid on
my neatly made bed
and I thought to myself. “Is it possible
something real can happen between Tope
and I….” But I considered the years she
would spend in the University and all.
She came the following day… This time she
wore a fitted gown. I Knew I was going to be
in trouble if I seldom caution myself. I then
told her to list out the most difficult topics
she was facing. I put her through and she
was quite intelligent in grasping, I was really
impressed by her keen interest in
understanding. After studying she then
looked at me and said. “How is your
girlfriend?”
I laughed and said. “Tope I don’t have a
girlfriend.”
She said. “I don’t believe you.”
I then said to her. “Tope, I am not lying to
you. Girls don’t find me attractive, it’s not
that I am good looking. Even while in school,
I never had the chance to date any girl I
admired.”
She said. “Thomas, I know you are special. I
saw it in your eyes the first time we met at
my mom’s canteen. You are special man.”
I was moved by what she said. No lady had
ever said that thing to me before. I began to
feel for her and that was when I started to
really care for her. She looked at my feet and
said. “Aaah.. Thomas. Look at your toe nails.
Don’t you cut them?”
I felt a bit embarrassed and said. “No now…
They are hard and my nail cutter is missing. I
will get another one in town.”
She then said. “Do you have a razor blade?
Let me help you cut it.”
I said. “No oo.. Please I don’t like using razor
on me, it could cut me.”
She then said. “Trust me.”
I got her the razor blade and she
meticulously cut my toe nails neatly. She
then took a napkin soaked it with water and
she cleaned my feet. No lady had shown me
much compassion and care. Immediately I
erased the lustful thoughts I had on her and I
decided to do everything to make her
succeed in her JAMB exams.
Our friendship grew and I found out how
remarkable she was. I began to love her but I
fought really hard not to reveal it to her. I
respected her and I knew she was a good
lady and I didn’t want to start something I
couldn’t finish. I was aware we both had
feelings for each other, but I was afraid it will
lead to nowhere and also I didn’t want to
make a promise I couldn’t fulfill. It was a
tough decision for me, cause I had to fight
every temptation that came my way.
She was really improving in her preparations
towards her examination. She was able to
solve all the difficult problems she once
faced and I was proud she was making a
headway. The JAMB exams came and she
smashed it. She scored 250 and I bought her
a wrist watch for doing so good.

It was friday night around 9:30pm. I heard a
knock on the door and it was Tope. I was
really surprised seeing her there and I said to
her. “Why are you out this late?”
She said. “I told my mom I was going for
Vigil.”
I then said. “Come in, you lied to your mom
abi?”
She couldn’t answer me.
I made her noodles and she ate. We both laid
down on the bed, I knew what I feared the
most was revealing its head. I had just my
boxers on and I don’t like sleeping with much
clothes on. She then said. “Do you have water
in the bathroom, I want to shower.”
I then knew that night was going to be an
intriguing one. I said. “Yes there’s water in
the bathroom. You can use this towel it’s
clean.”
She took the towel and went into the
bathroom. I didn’t have condoms with me
and it was late to get one. After about 15
minutes she then came out from the
bathroom wrapped in my towel. She then
put off the light switch and laid beside me.
She apparently didn’t have any clothes on.
Before I could say jack…. My erection had
manifested. But I vowed not to make the
first move.
About 10 minutes passed and no move was
made. She then rested her head on my chest
and put her left laps on my leg. And I thought
to myself. “If we spend the night like this it
won’t be bad.”
I then put my left hand on her left shoulder
and began to handle her shoulder a bit. Next
thing I felt was a grip on my joystick.
She said. “I have never held one before. You
are the first and you will be the last. I love
you Thomas I came to give you my body,
please be easy on me, I am still a virgin.”
I was put in a dilemma, I wanted her and I
didn’t want her at the same time. I couldn’t
think of what to say to her than. “Tope I love
you too.” It escaped me quickly before my
thoughts. I was letting my heart speak not
my head. I damned the consequences of
tomorrow and embraced the passion of now.
I had just less than a month to wrap of my
service year and I needed to hold on to
something to linger in the archives of my
memories
She began to kiss my chest, sending
electronic signals to my sexual hormones.
Unleashing the demon within me. She kept
on kissing and using her lips to clinch my
nipples, that was the last straw that broke
the camels back. I then took charge and laid
her on her back. I sucked her nipples tenderly
and caressively, she moaned embracing my
head while at it.
Although I had read about it in books: How
to deflower a virgin. With no practical
experience I knew it was going to be a long
night. While I was sucking her nipples my
right had was handling her region. She was so
wet with slimy stuff, but I didn’t mind. I knew
I had to handle with that place too.
So I later decided to put one finger inside her
honey well. It was really a difficult task and I
didn’t know where the orifice was, not that I
could put on the light and search for it. In the
quest of ransacking the opening, I put my
finger in her butt hole, she then said. “Ah
Thomas thats my anus. Raise your finger up a
bit…. No a little bit down….Yes there.”
She directed me to the spot but it didn’t
seem like an opening. I then applied little
pressure in putting the tip of my finger
inside, She closed her eyes and said. “Be
careful, it hurts a bit.”
The tip of my finger finally got in, so I started
taking it in and out continuously. She then
said. “Thomas, please I want you on top of
me. I need you to do the real thing.”
I then said. “It would hurt, I don’t want to
hurt u.”
She then said. “You deserve it Thomas. I love
you.”
I couldn’t decline her, so I mounted on her
and I said. “Tope you have to help out here,
you have to use your hand to align it to the
position.”
She then assisted me to it. My cap was just
on the surface of her vagina. I then started
to apply little pressure on it. I really didn’t
want her to feel much pain.
She then said. “Thomas just do it….Just do
it.”
I couldn’t push it in, I felt it was gong to hurt,
it was just so tight. While I use still applying
pressure she then tilted her waist towards
me, causing an abrupt intrusion. She
screamed and held me tight. There was a
snap inside of her, I felt it. I knew it was
better I remained inside of her.
It was very obvious she was in extreme pain,
I could tell by the grip she had in her
embrace. She then said. “Continue Thomas,
continue. Don’t stop no matter what.”
I then started thrusting… She closed her
eyes pretty tight trying to bear every pain
she perceived. I get sorry for her but happy
for myself. The feeling inside of her was
soothing and mind blowing. Her tightened
grip on me enthralled me to an ecstasy I had
never experienced before. After about 10
minutes I climaxed inside of her. It was so
compelling I had to lie on top of her and
remained inside till I shrunk out of her.
I then put on the light and the bed sheet was
stained with blood, it was a gory sight. she
helped removed it and washed it that night.
We both showered and laid on the mattress
and started talking. I said to her. “What came
over you?”
She said. “My friend Bimpe got deflowered
last week by a guy that never truly loved her.
She gave it to him because she wanted him
to stay. But I gave it to you because you are
truly caring, loving and supporting. I have
written JAMB exams 4 times and because of
you I made it this time. My life would have be
noting without you.”
I said to her. “Tope, I truly care about you.
But don’t you think that was too extreme?”
She said. “It had to be you. It would have
been with a guy that doesn’t deserve it. We
have known each other for 3 months and you
never asked for it. I have no regrets Thomas.
Even though we don’t end up together.”
I then said. “You are sweet girl Tope.”
She said. “One more thing.”
I said. “What?”
She then said. “We have to do it one more
time in the morning, my friend told me the
more I do it the more I enjoy it. I need to
enjoy you Thomas. I know you are finishing
service soon and I won’t see you again.
Please let me have the privilege.”
I pondered for a while and I said. “Okay
Tope, no problem.”

We had sex that morning, though she was in
pain but she bore it all because of me,
because of her love, her commitment, her
passion for me. I knew in my heart that if her
circumstances was a bit better I would vow
to marry her against all odds. I loved

We had sex that morning, though she was in
pains but she bore it all because of me,
because of her love, her commitment, her
passion for me. I knew in my heart that if her
circumstances was a bit better I would vow
to marry against all odds. I loved her and I
became so fond of her.
We became more carnal and grew in
intimacy. Everyday we engaged in lascivious
delight and Tope began to enjoy the
pleasurable ecstasy each time we entangled
in the salacious act.
After my service year had ended, I decided to
stay back for a week so as to bid farewell to
Tope. I knew everything we had was going to
end as soon as I departed from Kogi state,
and she knew that too. She couldn’t help but
cry all through the last few days I spent with
her. I felt for her, I was moved but I couldn’t
change what fate had put before us.
The day I was leaving, she saw me off to the
garage. As I waited for the vehicle to be
filled, she was sobbing inordinately, her face
covered in tears and her nose licking…. It was
a sorry sight, I hugged her close and she
cried out loud. “Noo…My life! My life! Oh God
why?”
I said to her. “Tope it’s okay baby, I will miss
you dearly.”
She then said. “What will I do now? Where
will I start from? I cannot love anybody
again. oh God please…”
I was able to calm her down and she
stopped sobbing. We had already created a
scene and people were beginning to say
things. I then said to her. “Tope, please I
need you to have this money, it is N12,000
get a good phone so we can keep in touch.”
She said. “Of what good will it be Thomas?
When I know I cannot have you forever.”
I then said. “Please Tope, I just need to know
how you are faring, to know if I can help you
with anything, to hear your sweet voice
again. Please Tope it means a lot to me.”
She took the money and she started sobbing
again and she said. “Good bye Thomas, good
bye…” As she ran away in tears.
I stood and watched her fade away in sight. I
had tears in my eyes and felt an emptiness
within. The vehicle got filled and I embarked
on my journey to Lagos. As I journeyed I
reflected on the sweet moments Tope and I
shared. I then realized they were the best
times of my life and I felt privileged to have
had such memories.
I got home and met my family, everyone was
happy to see me again. I sure did miss home
and all the comforts, but nothing compared
to Tope, whom I missed dearly. I knew I
would probably not see her again and
everything we had would only linger in
thoughts till they grow dim with time.

A week passed and I didn’t hear from Tope,
as I suspected. I knew she must have taken
the decision to stay aloof, it must have been
very hard on her. I had no option than to
move on and face the reality before me.
Through my mom’s connection, I was able to
secure a very profitable job in one of the
biggest oil companies in Nigeria, in just 3
weeks after my youth service. The company
made arrangements for me to travel to the
U.S for a 10 months managerial course. I only
wished I could tell the good news to Tope,
but there was no means, she didn’t have a
phone, she wasn’t on social media and not
even an email account,
Few days later I traveled to Texas, U.S. It
was a wonderful learning experience and I
was well taken care of. I met people from
different parts of the world and I had a great
time. At the end of the exercise, I returned
back to Nigeria and the following day I was
assigned to the position of an assistant
manager. I had my own office and desk, it
was too good to be true. My salary was
wow!! My life was beautiful.
After 3 months of working I was able to
acquire a brand new car. I could afford any
luxury that I wanted. My fashion changed, I
got lots of cool natives and suits, expensive
wrist watches, perfumes… I didn’t know how
to spend my money, every month it kept on
growing in numbers and since I wasn’t really
an out going type with only few friends I had
a huge savings.
A former course mate at the University was
having a wedding. I was invited and I felt it
was a very good opportunity for me to meet
up with good old friends. I came late for the
church wedding so I took a back seat and
shortly after the church ceremony ended and
we all dispersed to the reception not too far
away.
At the reception I took a secluded seat. I
never really liked to mingle and I decided to
just observe from a distance. I saw lots of
old faces that made me smile. It was really
good seeing their happy faces again. But a
face I would never forget was Ella’s. I had a
major crush on Ella for 2 sessions and a
semester, until she and Osas started dating
shortly before we all graduated. Ella never
reciprocated the feelings and it was difficult
to open up to her. She’s a beautiful fair
skinned lady and very decent. She was into
crafts: She made beads, shoes, bags and
cloths. She carved out a name for herself on
campus.
I was so pleased to see everyone smiling and
having a good time. I was busy with my
phone and next thing, I looked up and I saw
Ella coming my way. My heart beat began to
accelerate faster as she approached me. She
had a smile on and I knew I was in trouble.
She pulled out a seat on my table and sat
down, she then said. “Look who we have
here… Mr Loner. You haven’t really changed
have you?”
I said. “Hi Ella, so good to see you.”
She then said. “Thomas, o Thomas. The guy I
liked so much but never had the balls to walk
up to me.”
I said. “Wait…You don’t mean it.”
She said. “You never knew I liked you? Why
did you think I was always in your class
hanging with Chioma?”
I then said. “Oh my God… But you ended up
dating Osas now?”
She then said. “You are pathetic Thomas. If
you knew how long I came around your class
hoping you would act. You know, I knew you
have always been serious minded, focused
and very dedicated. You were not just man
enough.”
I then said to her. “Are you still with Osas?”
She said. “Osas and I broke up during service
year, he wasn’t serious at all.”
I the said. “Is it too late, Ella?”
She laughed and shook her head. “Thomas,
you are still pathetic. You haven’t changed
but it’s still cute though.”
I then asked her. “How about your craft
business?”
She said. “It’s doing well, I use my house for
now but I really need a place because
sometimes I get large orders and no space
to work. I am thinking of getting a job so I
can save up to get a place for my business.”
I then said. “Okay…. Ella, I know I messed up
in the past. I am sorry about that, I was very
shy and immature. I have really changed,
trust me on this. I have always admired you,
always patronize your crafts even though I
never needed them. If there’s nobody you are
seeing, please consider me. I am begging
you.”
She then said. “Aww… How sweet. you know
what? Let me have your number. Meanwhile,
lets go meet up with our friends over there.”
I then gave her my business card and she
was like. “Wow!! Thomas, you here. I have
always known you were special.”

My brother, don't mind Nlanders, as long as you dont put Tonto Dikeh, Munachi Abi, Maheeda they will not comment. It happened to me too so I just shunned them and I'm writing a book instead. I advice you to write a book, its a win win situation for you. The glory and the money will be yours.

Like yours, mine is also a true life story but I didn't include any romance in it because I wanted it to be purely substance and not indecency even though I know that's what sells in Nigeria.

I also plan to publish online since Nigerias shy away from reading hard copies.

I will encourage u to write a novel to your credit if you have enough content.

You can title your book TOPE since she gave you her viginity with no strings attached but dont make the story only about her but there will be a chapter called TOPE about her. At least them Yorubas attention will be drawn to it too.

After the reception, I dropped her home and
when I got home I called her and we spent
over an hour talking on the phone. We kept
on talking for long over the week and the
prospect of Ella and I starting a relationship
grew by the day. We decided to fix a date
the following weekend and we chose
Saturday. So on that day we went to a nice
restaurant to have lunch.
We cracked school jokes and talked about
old times… It was a wonderful moment. I
then asked her. “Ella about your business.
How much will it cost you to relocate and
restructure your business?”
She said. “Well, it will cost me N350,000.”
I then reached out to my small bag and
brought out my cheque book. Then she said.
“Thomas…What do you think yo are doing?”
I told her. “I am writing you a cheque of
N350,000″
She then said. “I can’t take it, I am sorry, I
just can’t take it.”
I said. “Its a loan, you can pay me when you
ready to.”
She said. “How much interest?”
I then said. “N1 ”
she lauded, hugged me and that was it.
I really wanted to do something very
important in her life, so she would know that
I was very concerned about her future. When
I got home my mom called. She wanted to
know my next move. Obviously marriage, I
told her about Ella and she wanted to see her
the following weekend. I then told Ella if she
would like to pay my home a visit and meet
my family. She delightfully welcomed it.
She came over and my mom really liked her.
They talked for over an hour and I even felt
left out. It was a good thing. She had lunch
with us and she also helped in washing the
dishes, my mom was so proud of her, even
though it was their first meeting.
After I had dropped Ella off at her place I got
back home and my mom called me. She said.
“Ella is a good lady, she will make an
awesome wife. She’s creative, she’s got her
own business, she’s going to have time to
run and maintain her home, have time for the
kids. I mean what else do you need?”
I said. “I know Ella is wonderful.”
She then said. “When are you proposing to
her? you better do it soon. before someone
else does.”
I then said. “Well, we will be traveling to
Calabar in 3 weeks, for her friends wedding. I
think that when I will do it.”
My mom said. “Good make sure you do your
thing.”
Ella and I became so close, I went to see her
family and they gave me a warm welcome,
her siblings were so friendly….. Things were
getting more and more interesting.
We travelled to Calabar for the wedding. I
had with me the engagement ring and I was
praying she would say yes, a part of me was
sure… She decided we stay in different hotel
rooms because she told me she was still a
virgin that she needed to keep till that
special night, I felt so lucky…
After the church ceremony at the reception, I
gave someone my phone to make sure he
captured the moment. I then called Ella’s
attention. “Ella.” As I knelt down with the
ring.
She said. “Oh my God…”
I then asked. “Will you marry me?”
She covered her eyes and screamed. “Yes!! I
will.”
To my surprise, people around were clapping
and that made me very uncomfortable. After
the event we headed back to our hotel
rooms and I called my mom telling her the
good news. My mom was really glad.
That night, I went on Facebook to post the
proposal picture. I noticed I had several
unread mails so I took my time to read them.
There was one mail that took my attention
the most. The sender didn’t have a profile
picture so I went ahead to read the mail.
It said. “Please are you the Thomas that
served in Kogi over a year ago? please call
this number ********** Tope.”
I felt very disturbed and I called the number
immediately. Unfortunately the phone was
switched off. I checked when the message
was sent and it was about 4 months ago.
I got back to Lagos and kept on trying the
number with no success. On wednesday
morning it rang. I waited to hear the voice
and it was Tope’s. I then said. “Oh Jesus,
Tope I just saw your mail are you okay?”
She began to sob. “Thomas, my Thomas
please came and help me. I need your help
now more than ever….”
I then said. “I don’t get you Tope is
everything alright?”
She said. “Nothing is alright, please come I
need your help.”
I the said to her. “I work now, I won’t be
chanced to travel.”
She then said. “How about saturday it’s very
important.”
The line then went off.
Memories of Tope came back, I was
confused and very bothered about her
situation. I kept on calling but the phone was
switched off. I then sent a text message to
her. telling her I would be coming on
saturday, but will leave on sunday morning
because I had to prepare to travel to Port
Hacourt on wednesday on an official
assignment. She responded the following
day with the address and her location.
I had made arrangements with a driver to
take me there with my car and I told Ella I
was going on a business meeting at Abuja. I
left very early in the morning and I got there
around 11:30am. The location was a church
far inside the town, it wasn’t easy locating it.
I saw Tope by the gate of the church,
standing. She looked pale and mucky, she
had lost weight and she looked very
unpleasing and troubled. I came down from
the car and she ran towards me.
She embraced me and said. “Oh Thomas….”
As she wept deeply.
I held her back by her shoulders and said.
“Tope…Please talk to me what is wrong?”
She then said. “Come to the church with me
and you will know everything.”

Re: Love Story: I Wish I Had Held Back ( Very Touching) by Popflair(m): 10:08am On Aug 22, 2015
She embraced me and said. “Oh Thomas….”
As she wept deeply.
I held her back by her shoulders and said.
“Tope…Please talk to me what is wrong?”
She then said. “Come to the church with me
and you will know everything.”
She held my hand and led me into the church.
I didn’t know what to think or expect, I just
needed to know what was wrong with her.
We got into the church and what caught my
eyes was the site of children playing on a
mat spread on the floor. Then I said. “Okay
Tope we are in the church, tell me what is
going on? And why did you decide to blank
me out completely?
She said. “I thought it was the right decision,
ending everything we started 2 years ago.
But I was wrong and I am sorry.”
I then said. “Okay, now tell me why are you
not in school? Is your mother okay?”
She then gushed out in tears. It was
becoming irritating and I grew impatient
and….. I heard a tiny voice of a kid saying.
“Mummy sorry.”
The little boy then embraced her by her leg
and she carried him up.
I was shocked the baby looked very much like
me when I was little…. He had the shape of
my eyebrows and my droopy eyes. I then
stuttered. “Is… That your child?” As sweat
began to drip from my face.
She then replied sobbing. “This is our
Thomas….This is our son.”
I then said. “How come, how is it possible?”
She said. “He is 2 years old, you are the only
man I have slept with, he even looks like you.”
I then said. “Oh my God!” As I sat down on a
bench because my knees became weary. “Tell
me everything Tope.”
She said. “3 weeks after you left Kogi. I
became ill and I was vomiting. My mom then
asked me if I was seeing any man. I told her
no. She took me to see the doctor, he ran
some tests and the result was that I was
pregnant. My mom beat me in the hospital
with her slippers. When we got home, she
threw my stuffs out and disowned me. I
went to meet my closest relative and in spite
of all the pleas my mom refused to take me
back……” As she started sobbing.
I held her hand tight to comfort her and said.
“Continue.”
She then said. “My relatives insisted I tell
them who was responsible, but I refused. I
didn’t want to implicate you and I know you
didn’t mean it. You have always wanted to
help me. So I did not tell them. 4 months
later, they started maltreating me and I then
decided to leave. A pastors wife took me in
and I was there for 1 year. That was were I
gave birth to junior and worked with the
church’s primary school.”
I then said. “You mean this church?”
She said. “No, I came to this church about 6
months ago. I had to leave the other place,
the pastor made some advances on me, I
reported to the wife and she threw me out. I
have been here since. It’s been terrible
Thomas….”She began to cry out.
My mind was heavy and I knew I had to do
something about her situation. She suffered
because of me, her education, her family. I
felt so much indebted to her. I then said.
“Tope, I know everything can’t be okay, but I
will do everything possible to make sure you
get the best in life. God has blessed me with
a good job and money is not a problem. I will
get you an apartment here in Kogi and every
month I will send you N200,000 for you and
Junior.”
She then said. “His name is Thomas.”
I took a pause and looked at him, he was
already asleep. I didn’t know whether to
touch him , carry him or something. I was
just too unprepared for these before me.
She then said. “I cannot stay here in Kogi.”
I then said. “Then where do you want to
stay? You can’t come with me to Lagos”
She said. “Thomas, I have nobody, nobody. I
have been rejected by my family, friends and
relatives. The only person I have is you and
my baby. I can’t stay far away from you…
Please.”
I said. “Tope, a lot has happened these few
years. I have moved on and you being close
could affect everything my mother has
established for me, everything I have worked
hard for recently. It can destroy me Tope.”
She then said. “Thomas, I understand but I
need someone to run to, someone to
depend on. I will never interfere in your life
again. I just need a new place to start all
over, I don’t want my baby to go through
what I went through. I need to further my
education, you helped me once and I know
you can help me again. I can’t provide for and
protect our child Thomas”
I started to reflect on everything she said. I
looked at the child, my child and I felt so
sorry. I knew I can’t deny them solace, cant
deny them what they want. That’s my blood
she’s talking about. I was hasty in conclusion.
I looked at my watch and it was almost 1
pm. I then said. “Tope, if we have to go to
Lagos we have to go now. Go pack your
things, I will be waiting in the car.”
It took us about 5 hours to get to Lagos. I
lodged them in a hotel and handed her
N50,000 in case she needed anything urgent
that night. I then left for home. I avoided
everyone and went straight to my room. I
was very unsettled and completely in
distress. Ella had been calling me but I was
too weak to pick her calls.
The following day, I drove to pick Ella so we
could go to church. She noticed I was not
myself and she asked me. “What is wrong
Thomas? you have been acting strange.”
I said to her. “I am pretty ill, but I will be
fine.”
I insisted it was a flu.
After church service, I dropped Ella at her
place and I went home to get some stuffs
for Tope and Junior. I got Tope a new Phone
and Junior, some of my old toys and lots of
candies. I got to their hotel room and she
appeared more relaxed. Next thing I heard
was. “Daddy!!”.
I saw the excitement on his face, it sent a
cold chill through my spine. Then Tope said.
“Junior, come on stop that. He is uncle not
daddy.”
He then said. “uncle!”
I smiled, for he looked so adorable. I gave
him his goodies and he said. “Thank you
uncle.” I was amazed and there was this urge
inside of me to spend time with him.
I then said. “Tope, try and relax today,
tomorrow you will go shopping with Junior.
Here is N150,000 for you 2. The driver will
come tomorrow in the morning, he will also
help open an account for you as well. I have
told him to secure an apartment for you in a
very good environment. It will take you guys
3 days at most to furnish and set up the
place to you taste.”
She then said. “Are you not going to be
around?”
I said. “I told you I will be traveling this week
and will be very busy. I may not see you till I
return from my trip. But I will always call
you.”
She took a deep breath in and was downcast.
I then said. “I know you have suffered
because of the decisions we made in the
past. I cannot erase the past but by God’s
grace, I can make your future and Junior’s
better. You will write JAMB again, you will
pass and you will gain admission, junior will
go to the best schools and he will make us
proud. But you need to keep to your word.
And I will keep to mine.”
I then hugged her then I left.
At home in my room, I was deep in thoughts.
I was wondering if this my plight will remain
secret. Ella and I had our wedding penned in
s few months, our families are involved and
the planning had begun.
Days later, I was in Port Harcourt and I was
kept abreast about the progress being made
regarding Tope’s accommodation. I was very
impressed at the development. I just wanted
her to have a place she could call home and
raise our child. Ella noticed something
different about me and I was tired of giving
her the excuse that I was ill. I later told her I
developed cold feet regarding our planned
wedding. That I will be fine.
I returned to Lagos after my official
assignment and the first place I went to was
Tope’s new apartment. I made sure it was a
far from my place to avoid any trouble. I got
to her door and I rang the bell. She then
opened the door. She was looking more
gorgeous than ever. She had her hair done,
her nails, she even added little weight. She
had a smile on and I just stood there looking
at Tope…. She had a bum shorts on, with a
half top. She was amazingly sexy, I just
couldn’t help but stand there and look or
should I say lust on her.
She then said. “Are you going to stand
there?”
I said. “Oh sorry.” As I entered the
apartment.
The sitting room was beautiful with a touch
of different shades of purple. I was very
impressed by her choice

of taste and luxury. I
knew she had it in her…
She then said. “I know you must be hungry.”
I said. “Yes, I am starving but where is
Junior?”
She said. “He’s asleep, come let me serve you
dinner.”
She sate me down on the dining section and
she served me a dish. I opened it and what I
saw took me through memory lane. It was
rice, dodo and 3 pieces of meat. Just like the
old days. I looked at her and she was all
smiling. Flash backs began to usher in my
thoughts, visualizing faded images in my
memory that was once clouded. I began to
fill a little spark.
After the lovely meal, she started taking me
round her beautiful apartment, and the last
place we stopped was her room. It looked
cozy and very calm. She then stood before
me and said. “Remember the first night we
spent together?”
I said. “Yes I remember. How can I forget?”
We both stood there looking at each other.
All I could see was a lady I once loved with all
my heart and she buttressed my thoughts
with a touch on my face. Her hand on my
face felt like those times. I heard voices in
my head. “Kiss her!!.” repeatedly. Then I
kissed her, she kissed me back and we
started kissing aggressively. I pulled off her
shirt and her nipples… Oh my God!… I had
missed them. I haven’t been intimate with
anybody else and my cup was more than full.
I grabbed unto her breast and I began to
suck her nipples. She then said. “Oh Thomas,
there hasn’t been anybody else apart from
you. No one has touched me and no one will
but you. Take me Thomas.”
I was unbuttoning my shirt and she was
pulling her bum shorts… We were naked and
kissing, catching up from where we stopped
years ago. I then inserted into her, she
moaned. She was so wet and creamy. That
feeling, that same feeling, everything was
coming back to me. We made love not sex, it
was love. When we were done she said. “Oh
Thomas, you released in me again.”
I then said. “Oh shit, I am sorry.”
She then laughed and said. “It’s okay, I am
safe. My ovulation had passed.”
We both laid down on our backs in silence.
She then broke the silence and said. “Is she
more beautiful?”
I then said. “Come on Tope. Please.”
She said. “Is she better than me? Does she
satisfy you like the way I do?”
I said. “I am afraid, I can’t answer you.”
She then asked. “Do you still love me?”
I said. “I can never stop loving you Tope.”
She said. “Then why can’t you marry me?”
I then said. “My family and her family are
already involved.”
She said, “I love you with my life, and I
understand you have moved on. I cannot ask
you to leave her for me.I want to ask you one
thing Thomas. Will you choose to marry a
lady you love or a lady you are trying to
love?'”
I then said. “If I am left with that choose I
will choose you. But I told you, our families
are already involved.”
She then said. “Am I not worth fighting for?”
I became bewildered and completely
helpless. I couldn’t answer her question. so
we slept off. In the middle of the night she
woke me up by sucking my manly, I was
completely lured and ignited. Overwhelmed
by the flame of passion I grew. She then
posed in a doggy position and her bum was
just right in front of me. I stood to mount on
her and rammed into her till we were both
wasted.
The following morning, I left for home.
Unfortunately I met Ella at my place, she was
seated in the sitting room and my mom was
comforting her. She was in tears. My mom
then asked me. “Where are you coming from
Thomas? Your chairman said you guys
arrived last night”
I said. “A friend of mine was having a party so
I had to attend.”
My mom then said. “Is that why you
switched off your phones Thomas?”
I told her. “My batteries ran down.”
My mom then said to Ella. “You see
everything is fine, I told you.”
I then went to my room and Ella followed. I
had to pretend to be happy with her to erase
the doubts she was having, so we played
board games and watched TV. When it was
dark I dropped her off and came back home.
I was going to my room and my mom called
me. She said. “I gave birth to you, I nurtured
you, I took you to the best schools in the
country. I made you you got the best job a
graduate can have. I have always looked out
for your interest. I am your mother and I
have been good to you since the day you
were born. Now Thomas, tell me the truth.
What is going on?”
At that moment I knew I couldn’t keep it
within me. I told me mom. I told her
everything that happened. She then said. “I
am totally disappointed in you. I brought you
up well, only for you to be bewitched by that
girl. I blame your father for making you serve
in Kogi state. Now Thomas, you will take me
to where you are housing them.”
I sad. “Now? It’s late mom.”
She said. “Now Thomas. And who else knows
about this? ”
I said. “Nobody just us.”
She then said. “It is going to remain that
way.”

Her driver then took us to Tope’s apartment.
I knocked and Tope opened the door and
said. “Sweety, I was just …….”
My mom said. “Who is your sweety?”
Tope was scared to her teeth and she said.
“Sorry mummy, I didn’t see..”
My Mom said. “Don’t call me mummy. You
mother disowned you because of your
treachery.”
We all stepped into the apartment. My mom
then said. “Do you know who I am?”
Tope said. “No ma”
My mom sad. “I am a Judge in Lagos. I can
make life very complicated for you if yo try to
destroy what I have spent almost all the
years of me life to build.”
Next thing Junior walked into the sitting
room and cried out. “mummy, mummy…” He
stood still as he saw the crowed.
My mom saw him and said. “Oh my God,
Thomas!!” As she held my hand tight.
There was silence for a minute. Then my
mom said. “The deed has been done, but if
you truly love my son you will have to let him
go. I was very angry but now I don’t have to
show it because of him. He is innocent and
does not have to suffer from your
recklessness. I will make arrangements for
you 2 to relocate to the UK. That is were you
will spend the rest of your lives. You will have
to get your educational documents and
necessary documents for that effect.
Tomorrow, you will leave for Abuja and you
both will stay there till your visas are ready.”
Tope was just sobbing and didn’t utter a
word. My mom then said. “My personal
assistant will come tomorrow morning to
facilitate the arrangements. This is the best I
can do not for you, but for him. Thomas, you
have 2 minutes, I will be waiting in the car.”
She left for the car and I stood there looking
at Tope. I then said. “I fought for us Tope
and now see what it has led? I don’t think I
will ever see you again. Good bye Tope.” I
then looked at Junior, I carried him one last
time, kissed his cheek and blessed him. I
dropped him down and headed to the car.
We got home and no word was uttered
between my mom and I. The following
morning I went to work and resumed my my
life the way it was before I went to see Tope
at Kogi. I knew I would learn to love Ella but I
can’t love her the way I loved Tope. But I
later came to understand that what
transpired between Tope and I was lust, lust
was the basis of our friendship and what
reshaped our destinies. Love builds but lust
destroys.
Tope lives happily in London, she got
enrolled in the university and she’s almost
done. Junior is almost done with his primary
education, he loves football and likes to play
drums. Ella and I are happily married and we
have a daughter, she’s 2 years and she looks
a whole lot like my mom. Tope and I still
communicate once in a while. She still vows
to wait for me no matter how long it takes. I
know what happened was a mistake and it
still remains a secret but for how long?
THE END….

@OP
I cried at some point reading your writeup because it made me to remember some things that happened in the past. It is still a secret today, the truth will come out someday.

Is it a crime for children of the poor to marry children of the rich? I know it's hard but it is possible.

What you think is Lust now, you will later realise it is Love and because a child is involved who is a boy his your first child. Hope He is not bearing your surname?

Life is a mystery my brother, Tope could have had a miscarriage if God did not want the Thomas Jr to live. It's called DESTINY
