"easy Jide, even if you use all your father's salary to buy gift for her, am not sure she's going to date you." Darous said, as they both settled on the bench at the front of Jide's father's house after they had both returned from the football pitch on the evening of that day.

"What makes you say that? Did she tell you anything more as to why she can't date me?" Jide said with a look of total gripe and eagerness. The young lad has obviously been blinded with a very rare insurmountable toxins of love and its on that ungrammatical reason that makes him very desperate to be willing to sacrifice his own future at the expense of teenage love. Eager and ready to make use of his own exam fees to buy gift for a girl who might never succumb to his call of love. But albeit his reason for embarking on this errant journey was because he's got an alternative way to get another money to pay for his exam fees.

Should I tell you how he planned to do that? Well yes...I will tell you exactly his alternative way of getting money for his exam fees.

Jide had devise a plan to steal the same amount he's ready to part with from his fathers purse when the latter will be busy watching the Nigeria versus Sweden 2002 Korea-Japan world cup match inside their sitting room at 2pm on the following day. But what remains obviously oblivious to the soon-to-be culprit is the fact that, his father had made up his mind without informing him or his second wife who happens to be Jide's mother that, if Jide his first son, ever steals from him again, that instantly signals the final whistle of his education.

"talk now, wetin she tell you?" Jide asked again, now with more eagerness and tension in his tone when it appears to him that Darous isn't willing to shed more light on the issue.

"it doesn't matter Jide, but please, am telling you as a friend, to stop bothering your....."

"are you ready to talk or not?..." Jide curts in.

"listen....."

"to what?" Thundered Jide.

"are you stupid or what exactly is wrong with you? How can you say you want to use your own examination fee to buy gift for a girl who obviously doesn't like you one bit? What will happen if you drop out of school? Do you think Lola will want to spend the rest of her life with someone that has no future?...." He paused to study the reaction of Jide who appeared expressionless at the moment. He heaved a short sigh and continued. "let me tell you the fact Jide, whether you use yourself to do ritual just to buy something good for her or you do it by robbing the central bank, I can tell you factly that Lola can not agree to date you. Either for money or free."

He ended conclusively, hoping that will will sway his friend's mind away from wanting to date Lola but the other boy wasn't ready to budge, not even if his life depended on it.

"thats where you are wrong Darous..." Jide replied rather calmly than furious.

"am wrong?"

"yes you are. Wait....shey you still remember my uncle that was living with us before we enter ss1?"

"hmmm...uncle Bolu right?"

"yes...."

"ok. What about him?"

"do you know he eventually got married to Alhaji Adaena's beautiful daughter living beside our house after all the problems and troubles she made him went through?" He ended with a questioning eyebrow.

"what!....really?" Darous asked suprised.

"yes na?" Jide replied.

"Ahah, thats awesome..when did that happened that I didn't know of it?"

"it happened the following week your father told you not to come to our house again because of what...I did to your neighbour."

"you mean when you stole Mr Chinedu's Sagem My-X5 phone and said it was me before your father eventually found it with you and you still went on to claim I gave it to you to keep for me?"

"ehn...see it as a payback for telling my father that I usually run out of class during school hours to go home and watch film." Jide stated un-remorsefully and all Darous could do was shake his head pitifully. His friend has always been fond of paying a one naira evil back with a millionaira worth of vengeance. He could go to the extreme of sponsoring a deadly terrorist group to distablilize the peace and unity of a great country just to get even with the ruling president because the latter had asked him to pick litters around the school compound for coming late when they were both in secondary school and the president had been the labour prefect at the said time.

"do you really have to do all that because I snitched on you? Don't you know I was only protecting your future?"

"I don't need your protection Mr Protecter. That duty is meant for my parents alone. All I need from you is to just be a friend to me and as far as am concerned, friends don't snitch on eachother." He paused before he continued after a brief silence. "will you tell me what she told you as to the reason why she can't date me or not?" He asked, eventually bringing the Arsenal of the discussion back to its original fourth position where they'd started.
"well, Lola actually told me the only thing she'd be accepting into her life is Jesus Christ...so I advice you to get that into your thick canine skull."

"thats bullshit. How does her church life gets involved with her dating life.?"

"I don't know, but judging by the way she reacted after I told her you love her, am sure she's damn serious." He stopped and noticed the change in his friends countenance so he quickly added. "am sure she's really a religious addict if not yet a religious trafficker already gan self."

"hmmm," Hmmmed Jide after a brief moment as he shifted in his sitting position. "wetin go happen be say, na the gift go fit do am. Help me buy better gift dash her, she no fit say no to that na? Or what do you think?"

"What I think?" Darous asked, holding his right palm on his chest.

"yes na?"

"well apart from the fact that you're willing to spend your exam fees on a lady, I think you are a talented idiot. How can you place your own future lower than the pleasure of having a girlfriend?"

"Darous, no go there again o...no go there...ahaha, shey you no dey there when Abdullahi and Michael dey abuse me since Ss1 say ah no fit get a simple girlfriend till ah die?"

"so all this suicide huzzling to toast Lola na simply because you want to prove them wrong?" Darous asked rubbing his palms together in a 'I can't believe this' manner.

"ehn nao"

"at the expense of your own future?"

"Darous...."

"my friend, na devil's first eleven dey pursue you...."

"wait... Ah dey come." Jide interrupted as he rose up and entered the house while Darous was left sitting down on the bench thinking of what just transpired between them. His friend just subconsciously gave him a tangible reason to take Lola for himself.

"how can he deliberately steal a phone from my neighbour and be saying it was I that stole it just because he wants to revenge?" Darous stated in a soliloquizing manner. "well, I think this is my chance to pay the idiot back for the humiliation and severe beatings I received from my Dad on that day. Yes, I must get even with this fantastic idiot..." .

***

"take this and help me buy something nice for her." Jide handed 6 wads of 100naira notes to Darous who reluctantly collected it.
"Darous, I trust you on this please no fvck me up. Friends always look out for eachother.."

"thats if they are on the same team." Darous completed the phrase mentally as he rose up, tuck the money in his boot-cut jeans and exited the place with just one mission in mind which is to get even with his friend but their actions begs for this question: Who's keeping the scores?

***

The 3rd term examination of Egba Comprehensive High School in the suburb of Abeokuta there in the gateway state came and went like a flash.

While brilliant students were being promoted on the merit of excellence, so were the dullard students that got repeated were also failed on the merit of woefulness and worstfulness.

While the promoted students were getting 'keep it up' remarks from both their class teachers, principals and well wishers, so were the repeating students getting remarks such as, 'there is still room for improvements', 'Try harder next term', 'Advice to withdraw', 'I will rather use my money to raise a poultry than send a legendary dullard like you to school', 'This result is the end of your education', and etcetera synonym phrases from class teachers, principal, vice principal, guardians and parents respectively.

However cruel and disdainfully that kind of plight might portrayed itself to be for those that failed to get promotion, still can't be compared in any measurable terms to the fate that befell a certain Olabanwo Olajide of Ss2A who after failing to register a single present mark during the examination process due to failure to pay his school fees, was also sent parking from home by his own father when the latter had found out that his son didn't pay the money given to him for the required fee and that errant act had been the cause of his failure to get promotion from the penultimate class to the graduating class. And to further add more to his C.V of failures, all his effort to get the Girl of his dream crashed in absolute futility.

Ironically, the contrary is the case for a certain Idowu Oluwadamilare a.k.a Darousmart of the same school and class whom had not only passed in almost flying colours but was also crowned with the euphoria of being appointed as the assistant senior prefect boy of the next session while Lola, his new girlfriend was also appointed as the social prefect girl. His own appointment can't be said to be fully based on his blurred brilliancy as there were hundreds of students who were absolutely more brilliant than him in the school and academically arguably more qualified for the post. So therefore, his appointment can be said to be parcentagely based on his unrivalled neatness, dutifulness, unlatefulness and mostly out of the percentage was his handsomeness.

Then something happened.

>>>FLASHBACK contd..<<<


"urm.....Lola..." Darous cleared his throat as they both stopped beside the road linking to the school gate. This new task from Jide is gradually becoming a more daunting task for him.

Although he had been able to find a cunning way in the past to toast Bukky and Hajarat, two of the most beautiful girls in school and had been dating and dated both respectively since he was 15years old and apparently in SS1, but what he's never really done is to toast on someone else's behalf. He only agreed to do this because he saw how desperate Jide, his friend appeared while asking him to help him out. He couldn't turn him down also knowing how embarrassed Jide always feels whenever the rest of their crews were discussing any girlfriend related issue.

"you shouldn't have treated her that way na...." Said Jide.

"who ask you to put mouth inside this matter?...eh?" Abdullahi retaliated angrily. "look here, always stay on your own Girl-less path and never ever cross to any girl-ful issues like this....you hear?". Abdullahi retorted further at Jide at the end of the drama reheasal that always held at the end of every thursday schooling activities when the latter had bumped into an un-invited conversation going on between Darous and Abdullahi, and had been unable to restrict himself from spitting his own opinion which unfortunately resulted in total embarassment for him. "and if you ever and ever again, put your mouth in my matter again, I swear, I will use this biro..." Abdullahi warned further waving an Eleganza pen at Jide's face. "I will use this biro to shook your face a thousand times that satan will have a hard time recognising you in hell. Idiot." He hissed and rejoined the others while the embarrassed Jide was left standing like someone that thieves had just robbed off his last penny.

Remembering fully well of that incident which happened in his immediate presence was what prompted Darous to subconsciously acceeded to his request in the first place cos turning him down at that moment would have hurt the dude badly. Moreover, this is his friend and yes he has to do this for him.

A FRIEND IN 'need' they reshuffled and added just letters 'i' and 'd' to make IS A FRIEND 'indeed'.

So friendlically and no matter what it takes, even if it means sacrificing his own feelings on the way, Darous feels he has a sense of obligation to do this for the sake of friendship.

Wait! did I just said his own feelings? Oh! My bad. I didn't mean to tell you that fact, atleast not yet. I wouldn't want you to found out just yet that Darous has also been a secret admirer of the elegant beauty standing presently before him. Yes he has feelings for her, the same girl his friend had ask him to help ask out. Complicated isn't it? Yes thats just one of the ironical scenes from the theater book of life.

It all started when providence brought the two of them together when, Darous and Lola were both sitting for the Junior Waec Exams two years earlier and Lola's seat happens to be beside his own based on the alphabetical order the seats were arranged.

Barely minutes after the commencement of the exam had Lola started whispering Darous name. It seems as if Lola had not prepared atall for the exams as she was always calling on the not too brilliant Darous to give her most of the answers to the questions asked. Even asking him for the plural form of 'FART'.

Truth be told, it was the way her pre-breasts always engrossed his vision whenever she calls on him for an answer that initially connected his xender application of reasonings and generousity to her before the exchange of answers began and thanks to the invigilators negligence of duty, the teenage examination malpractice went unnoticed.

Like I said earlier, I didn't mean to tell you that just yet, but I guess thats what happens when you're the one God created just after Basket mouth.

"Lola, you know my friend nao..."

"which one? Abdullahi Olowopere or the tall Uwala Michael?" Lola who was obviously basking in the euphoria of getting the chance to talk with one of the most sort after boys in school asked with a smile just before they stepped outside the school gate.

"no....no...." Darous replied as calmly as he could.

"or Seun, baby onifun(doll with no intestine)?." She asked with another smile trying to prolong the conversation.

"none of the above Lola...its Jide...."

"oh....that idiot...?"

"cut it Lola...thats my best friend you're calling idiot....."

"Sorry....sorry." Lola said with an apologetic look.

"its alright...its ok... Lets just get to the main reason why I wanted to see you...."

"which is..?"

"my friend likes you. He wants you to be his babe and I swear to you on the life of our Maths teacher Lola, you won't regret it...I promise you." Darous stated with a serious look.

"ahahahahah...Gawd...." Lola suprisingly bursted into an uncontrollable laughter to the shock of Darous.

"whats funny?...." Darous asked slightly confusedly.

"is that the only way your friend can think of apologising for what he did to me?....telling you to toast me for him?"

"what apology? What did he do to you Lola?" Darous queried agogly now fully confused about the path the discussion just swayed.

"don't tell me he didn't tell you how he's been telling everybody in class that am his girlfriend?...."

"what?" Darous lamented eagerly. "Wait...Jide really said that? are you sure about this Lola?"

"ofcos am 100percent sure. Or why do you think I hated him in the first place?" Lola stated while readjusting the straps of her school bag.

"hmm. So whats going to happen now? You can't forgive him and forget?"

"forgive him? Even if I do, I can't date him. He's such a looser and we are not in the same class."

"ahah...how can you say that when you're both in the same SS2A.?"

"am not saying technically but figuratively am way above his level." Lola said as they both rounded a corner not too far from her residence.

A moment of silence escorted Lola's last statement before Darous could find his voice again.

"erm....Lola, why can't you just forget...."

"forget what? No no no....I can't...."

"why can't you?"

"nothing. Please can we just not talk about any Jide-like related issue again?"

"hmmm....then what do we discuss? I can't go back to him without any good news." Darous asked after pondering on her statement for sometime.

"then find a good news to tell him."

"like what?"

"well," Lola shrugged. "you can tell him Jesus loves him. Thats goodnews."

"funny you...."

"tell me something Darous, do you like me?" Lola asked in her attempt to change the topic.

"sure...everybody likes you...." He replied shyly.

"I know, agapely. But do you like me? I mean you."

"what would you do if I tell you I don't?"

"nothing."

"are you sure?"

"yes..."

"you sure you won't wake up nakèd at midnight and start cursing my creator?" Darous said sarcastically.

"com'on....I won't...and I can't. Its a free world. You can like and hate whoever you want."

"ok....I....." he paused when he saw how eagerly and anxious she was staring at him as they've both stopped behind the uncompleted building at the back of her house. "I...I...."

"Please say it nao."

"well, I like you." He declared finally.

"yes! I knew it...thats why you helped me out during the exams right? Cos you like me?"

"well, actually, I can't say. Lets just say, my brain always malfunctions at the sight of beauty..."

Lola was totally elated the moment those words started flooding out of Darous's mouth. To her, getting the attention of one of the most handsome boys in school is one thing, but getting complimentary words from him is another great feeling entirely.

"then, whats stopping you from asking me out for yourself? Instead of hiding under the umbrella of your friend." Lola asked taking a quick glance at the back entrance of her house probably checking if there's anyone watching them.

"I....I don't know...know....maybe...cos my friend already likes you...."

"I will rather date the first born of lucifer himself before I agree to date a miser like your friend. Please can we not bring him to this topic again?"

"ok. So...." he was still talking when Lola quickly wrapped her arms around his neck and drew him towards her face before she placed a kiss on his lips.

The kissing moment lasted longer than the excitements of Nigerians when APC won the presidential elections and dollar started forming boss to naira few weeks after.

"now tell me, do you like that?" Lola asked after they had disengaged after the kiss.

"like what?"

"the kiss!"

"hmmm....yeap...I do..."

"fine, if you want more of that, then get your friend off my back." She said and started walking away towards her house.

***

"how far...? Have she accepted me?" Jide queried Darous the moment they saw eachother on the evening of that day.

"ah...erm...Jide....hmmm..." Darous stuttered

"wetin happen na? Talk...did she accept?"

"nope...nope...she said..." He stopped scratching his head to come up with a good lie as Jide starred anxiously and eagerly at his face. "she said you've offended him and will never forgive you talkless of dating you."

"oh! I know." Jide lamented dejectedly and Darous was very happy to see that reaction.

"and unless you are ready to spend more than five hundred naira to buy gifts for her, I don't think she can ever date you." he said all that, knowing how stingy Jide is whenever money is concerned to further spice up his claim thinking he will back down.

But just when he thought he'd ended Jide's chances of threading further on wanting to date Lola, Jide gave him the greatest shock of his teenage existence when Jide shook his head briefly and came up with a least expected reply.

"guy about that one, my Pman just give me 600naira, my exam fees, if I give it to you, you fit help me buy something nice with it na....."

"what!" Darous declared in shock. "your exam fees?"

"yes Darous. I love that girl more than my life."

TheBlessedMAN:
THE events of the next episodes are what transpired during the 7months prior to last night.


3.

I woke up the following day, around 6.am, i lived in a self-contain apartment that consists of 1 room, 1 toilet and a kitchen. My room served two purposes, Bedroom and Living room, so it was moderately furnished to serve those purposes very well.


I went to the toilet to do what every sane human being will do in the morning before heading for the kitchen to prepare something for myself. I checked the cupboard, i still had two packs of Spaghetti, so i quickly put hot water inside a pot, and put it on the gas stove.(for the sake of Chumzypinky, Pamelb, Smartestpopqueen,and rachealfst that doesn't know how to cook spaghetti, let me teach you).

I waited for the water to reach its boiling point (you can't know that, if you are not a science student), i added seasonings and pepper, i also added a moderate quantity of salt, i applied enough Vegetable oil and i left it to boil together for another 2mins after which i squeeze the spaghetti into moderate lenghts and pours it inside the pot.

While waiting for the Spagg to be ready, i went back to my room, to pick up my Lenovo A850. I pressed the top power botton and the screen came on. messages started flooding in from my whatsapp app, and when i clicked on the app, all the mssg came from one sender, NIKE, my Girlfriends younger sister.

Let me quickly tell you about her before the Spag gets done.


Me and my gf have been dating for close to 8months, i met her on Facebook, i checked her profile, and pics, but i couldn't find any pics to relate to her pics. I also realize that she stays not too far from where i am living my Bacheloristic life.
(i dey come, make i check the spagg.........ok, it remain small. Ok. Lets continue)

I chat her up, and you know, after too much persuasion and threats of commiting sweetcide if she doesn't behave well, she finally gave me her number and we started talking on phone. I spent the first week trying to make her see me as a friend, the second as a lover and the third as an husband material.

So she invited me to her house the fourth week, and i was very glad i will be seeing this lady for the first time.

I got to the address she gave me and i called her to confirm if am at the right place, because, where i was presently was at the front of a mighty duplex.

I waited at the gate for what seems like forever before the gate was finally opened.

And behold, before me, stood a very beautiful young lady of maybe 17yrs old. This girl is the perfect definition of BEAUTY.
She stood at a bit above average height of 5ft 6inches, with a fair complexion and a set of ample breas't with a very alluring oval face that compliments her beauty and stature.

She was claded in an armless pink top and blue jean trousers.


"you are Darous right?"

"yes, i am". I answered and returned my lustful gaze at her lusicious body.

"ok, you can come on in". She ushered, but i was unable to move for what seems like 40mins as i continue staring at this beautiful girl and her body.
'oh gawd of Sango come and see babe mehn? This babe fine no be small. Make i just handle this chick for just 1week, chai, those attentive brea'st go suffer o. Ah, i fit sell my grandpa to ritualist just to take this girl anywhere she wants.. I swear, Sango go repent, if he just jam this kind girl. Omo, i don hit am today'.


"hey Mister, are you alright?". She said, bending down with a confused look and wavering her left hand at my staring face, and that was enough to bring me out of my lustful thoughts.

"Oh.. Hummm (i cleared my throat) you were saying?".

"I told you to come in, and it was as if your mind is out of town". On a normal day, i would have beaten an ugly girl to coma if she used such phrase with me, but this beautiful descendant of Eve is very special.

"oh.. My bad.. Pls am sorry.. Can i come in now".

"Sure.. ". She closed the gate and proceeded towards the main entrance. "Pls follow me". She replied with a smile.

'ofcos, am ready to follow you to Hell, even if the hell is mean't for you alone'. I thought.


She took me to a Largely and tastefully furnished sitting room. She urged me to take a sit and went upstairs.


I was in that position for almost 5mins before she came down the stairs.


"Can i offer you drinks, while you wait for her?". She flashed me that Konji provoking smile again and i was having a hard time controlling my lower department.


I almost replied 'YES' before her last word settled in. 'HER'
I stood up immediately.

"Her?... Wait, which her? Are you not Joke?". I asked anxiously.

"ofcos.. Am not, am her younger sister". She replied taking a step back away at my sudden change in look.

'chai. Sango don suffer. Or is this a joke? It had better be.'

"have your seat, and she will be with you shortly". She walked towards another direction, as i slowly took my seat on the sofa.

'This Joke had better be beautiful like this girl.. Or else.. Sango go vex'.

T.b.c. Wait make i check my Spaggetti. He go don do. BRB.

PROLOGUE CONTD.....

"Will you just for once in your miserable life, just do as you are told and Back off!?". The lady said, amid anger and with the rate at which she was fumming now, am not sure, if she can take another 2mins of my friends stubborness.


"I just want.. Want...want to knw".


"you don't want to know any damn thing about me, loser, all you are interested in is how you are going to satisfy your stewpid sexual urge..". She retorted,but no, Jide is not ready to give up either, the arguement was starting to get very tensed, and am afraid the ending might not be pleasant atall. The lady was now walking away, so, i quickly went to my friend and tried to speak some sense into him.

"hey". I said tapping him by the shoulder as he watched the lady walking very fast down the untarred road "the, lady said to Back off. Just give up already, its getting up to 3hrs now. no be every lady can be as gullible as Blessing, just as you dey always tag her. So, guy, unless, you want to suffer another round of embarrasment, then you can go after her".


"what are you saying? That i should just let her go? Now that am very close to getting her". He replied rhetorically.

"ogbeni, u are not close to anything, the only thing you are close to here, is getting slapped".

"she can't do that, and for your info, am not backing off, not until i atleast get her number and residence". He replied walking away.


"why not also get her Birth certificate? U this glorified idiot." i fired back at him, cos i was already getting more angry at his stubborness.

"na u sabi. Call me whatever, i wil make sure i get her". With that determination, he took off, and ran as fast as his legs could carry him. I also followed suit, and fortunately for us, we catch up with her, as she was about to enter an Hairdressing salon. I was damn tired after the whole 200meters run, so was my friend. We were both sweating hard. I stopped a few distance behind the salon as i keenly view from there, hoping Jide doesn't get into trouble.

After 2mins, i watched as the lady gave my Friend a resounding slap. I hastily rushed down there to know what went wrong.


"did you just slapped me?". Jide cried out,holding his cheeks. That looks like a very dumb question.


"nope, i didn't, i only used my left hand to straighten that cheeks of yours, and worst will still happen if you don't back off now". She replied him angrily and entered the salon.


*****

"Jide, take heart o, infact, na Gawd go judge am,". I said, trying to comfort him for the humiliation he suffered back there.


"ah, emi (me) Darous, emi, me,(he was beating his chest rapidly) almighty Jendor? She go pay o. I swear on my fathers grave, she go pay". He cursed angrily.


"she go pay?".

"yes, i promise you that"


" did you gave her your bank account?".


"Darous, no whyne me o, i dey vex".


"who u dey vex give? Na me slap u ni, abi u b born idiot, when that b*tch dey dash u slap, why u no vex? U wan dey vex for me, na thunder go fire u and your stupid vex."

"No vex abeg, u suppose understand now".


"the only thing i understand is that, her slap sent your memory back to factory settings. So i am greatful to her for that."


"ok, i know say i fork up, but it was also wröng of her to raise up her hands against man. So she will pay for that".

Through out our journey home, Jide could not stop rubbing his cheeks, he was busy lamenting, how he will make her pay for what she did.
I just hissed and went straight to my room, i laid on the bed thinking of how i will tidy my girlfriend's sister, the next day.
