Episode 11
Maybe Karma wanted her to choose. She wouldn't be the one to break a relationship because of a whimsical fancy. She knew Ibrahim was looking at her. She couldn't have him thinking that Nick was something to her so she ended up ignoring the call.
Ibrahim gave her a questioning look and karina touched her ears lightly and gave a nervous laugh. "That was nobody important" Karina lied. The lie seemed to slap her so hard because she lnew deep down that Nick was one of the most important people she had in her life. "I have turned into a liar, even to my self" Karina thought to herself.
Trying so hard to change the subject, she said "I noticed you still don't drink"
Ibrahim laughed "You know me too well. I am not much of the alcohol person"
karina smiled sweetly "And it is one of the things i loved so much about you, it makes you even more charming" Karina said and hit her head mentally "DRINKING MAKES YOU EVEN MORE CHARMING" who says that?!
Ibrahim smiled staring into her eyes "Thank you, so who is the man in your life?"
Karina swallowed hard and lied again, "There is no man"
Ibrahim seemed surprised. "How is that even possible?" he asked.
Karina stared at her almost empty glass. She felt ashamed. "It is possible because every man who comes into my life come with the intention of breaking me, including you" she said looking at him when saying her last sentence.
Guilt was written all over his face "I thought you said you would not talk about the past again"
Karina could feel her eyes watering "There is a limit i can take Ibrahim. You dont know how i suffered when you left me!. You murdered my self esteem, i began to wonder if the fault was from me. You left me without a single word, you blocked my contact!!, you cut me off totally. I hated you,i really did. Ibrahim you were the cause of my misfortune in my other relationships, yet i still fought for a love i know doesn't exist. Ibrahim you made my life a living hell when you left me. I became the laughing stock at school, every eyes were on me, they wanted to know the next move i would make after i was dumped by the school most popular boy. Ibrahim you might have an awesome personality but you have alot of flaws that could drown you. I don't think i can sit here and make a fool of me for a second time, i am not that dumb" karina knew she had caught alot of attention. Without turn to look at who and who was staring she stood up and left without paying Ibrahim a second glance.

I posted twice today and i really feel gud bout it. Yea, i know, Karina's mood swings are crazy. One moment she is thinking bout getting with Ibrahim and the next minute she is lashing out at him. Would try and update early tommorow.

Episode 10
"She is here with me" a deep voice said. A voice which Karina knew from somewhere. She abandoned her drink and turned around to look at the other stranger.
She was beyond shocked at who she saw. This was unbelivable!. The guy standing behind her and giving a death gaze to the cute stranger was her first love. Ibrahim Bankole. He looked better than she had ever seen him look. She had met him when she was in her first year in the university, and she had fallen inlove with his awesome personality, she had seen him as her mr right. He was briliant, caring, understanding, he had listening ears, and was really charming (so many reasons why a girl would fall in love). He had asked her out after he noticed her in the same class they both read in every night. Truth be told, his reading techniques had been the exact reason why she had taken it as a duty to always attend night classes. They had both been the perfect couple. And after a few months into the relationship he had deflowered her.
She was so lost in thoughts that she had not noticed the cute stranger had left and Ibrahim had taken a sit beside her.
"Karina, you look as beautiful as ever" Ibrahim whistled out. Karina could not help but smile shyly.
"I could say the same for you" she said softly. (What the heck happened to her voice!!, why was she going all soft for him).
"I still regret leaving you" Ibrahim said sadly.
"I still regret giving you my heart Ibrahim" Karina said trying to get her normal self back.
"And why would you say that?" He seemed suprisingly surprised which made Karina pissed off. He had been the one to opt out of the relationship.
"I cant believe you asked me that. You broke up with me because of distance. Ibrahim! mere distance when you claimed you had loved me" she said trying to keep her cool
"Karina, i still regret the day i turned my back on what we had. I really loved you pls believe that"
"I still hate you for what you did" Karina said even if she knew she had never really hated him.
"Let us put our past behind us and start all over again" Ibrahim said and Karina could tell he was already desperate.
"Fine. I wont talk about the past any more" Karina said
"Thank you. What have you been up to?" Ibrahim said to her while he signalled for a waiter to come.
"Nothing really. I work as an external auditor,pretty boring i know and apart from that,it is just me living my normal usual everyday life" karina said playing with her nails.
The waiter came to their table before Ibrahim could speak.
"How may i serve you sir?" the waiter asked
"I would have a glass of ice tea please" Ibrahim said in a hurry to dismiss the waiter. The waiter scribbled something down on his note and left
"That's nice. So tell me, who is the lucky man?" Ibrahim asked and just when Karina was about to give a reply, karma decided to play a trick on her. Her phone began to ring and it was Nick calling.

You might not have got it all wrong though. Depending on how forward he was should determine your reaction and impression of him. Permit me to ask, did he make entries for a relationship on the spot or asked for your number?

He asked for my number. Said i was fine, quiet and nice. Saying things a guy attracted to a girl wld say, and he would want to see me again after which he asked for my contact.

JanuaryTempest:
Yeah, hence I'm saying you must have touched him emotionally, moved him, reason he took that brave step & asked you out despite his embarrassing position infront of your eyes. IDK but I feel it came from a very grateful place. Good samaritans or good people in general are hard to come by nowadays, so when you do meet one, it's like an angel descended from the heavens. And you're female to boot. He must have thought "wife material" or whatever.

True sha. I shouldn't blame the guy.

ronald4lif:
Hmmm you're just being presuppositional and aren't certain his advances was designed to take advantage of your charitable gesture. Asking you out after offsetting his tfare doesn't imply he's baleful.

Has it occurred to you that your rare act of benevolent towards him, especially as a lady, might have ensnared you to his heart and his intentions were genuine?

I rly dnt read mind,so i wldnt be able to know if his intentions were genuine. I must hav gotten it all wrng. True. But not all guys intentions are usually genuine. For me, first impression rly matters alot. And my first impression about him wasnt gud. so u wnt blame me.

Lol, maybe your gesture made him see you as the kinda chic that'll have his back. The wind beneath his wings Or maybe someone, a stranger, has never done something so kind to him before & was moved/overwhelmed with emotion, hence the proposition.

Very nice of you, btw.

Tnk u
I cld tell it wsnt mainly bcoz he was moved or overwhelmed with emotion, he wanted sth more, frm d way he spoke he made it pretty obvious.

What's the reason for the lampooning exactly? That he asked you to pay his tfare or that he wooed you? Don't guys usually pay for ladies tfare without making a humming out of it

Helping a person out is not a problem but when dat person tries to take advantage of my help it becomes a problem. He could have saved d wooing and ended it with just a thank you(it wldnt hurt)

You were kind enough to pay his bills, he was man enough to still ask you out..
I see nothing wrong in his action. You either give him a yes or a stern "No" and don't make issues out of it. Thank you

I am not making issues out of anything.

So many people dont see this as nothing, i dnt see anything wrong in helping a stranger out. But today after entering a bus and meeting a guy who asked me to pay his transport (after which i did), this guy started asking me out. Inside a bus. After paying his transport. No shame. That's a real big turn off. So pls guys what do u think.

Episode 9
Karina sat down in her sitting room sulking. She was being a chicken, no one had to tell her that. She had tried to think about a million things to say when shw called him but nothing came up. And guess what!!, she ended up chickening out. She didn't call him. Couldn't. She needed to get out of her house fast, because she felt she was already having a huge mental illness from thinking. Truth be told, she felt empty.
She stared at the television and yet still couldn't make sense on what they were doing. This was insane. She was insane. She had broken the number one rule of their platonic relationship. She had fallen inlove. She stood up from the chair, grabbed her car keys and left the house with no idea on where she was actually going.

* * * *
"What's a lovely lady doing all by herself?" Karina looked up to see a guy on suit. He looked nerdy but was a little bit cute, but not her type.
"Maybe this lovely lady wants to be left alone" Karina said averting her attention back to her drink and taking a long sip of her cocktail.
"Why are you being so rude, its not a crime if a guy wants to talk to you and know you better" the guy said still standing his ground.
Karina knew she was tuck in a bad situation. She didn't want to embarass the stranger, neither did she want to embarass herself. Just when she was about to open her mouth and make matters worse, she heard a voice.

Why do always think I hate you? I don't. Honestly.

You seem like smart lady with a great personality and a good heart. What's there to hate about you?

I just like messing with you, that's all. And I only mess with people I don't hate. If I hate someone, I would find that person repulsive. I won't want to have anything to do with that person.

So you see, I don't hate you.

So does that mean we v made a truce?
