Episode 36
She yawned, "it doesn't matter, please, next time, wake me up, so I can go with you" My eyes grew wider ozugbo, kai, this my sister sef, she's becoming too smart for my liking, "hian, follow me for what kwanu? It's an adult discussion, besides, he will be the one to tell you to go and sleep, you will see" "Sha wake me up, if he tells me to go and sleep, no worries, but let these my two legs reach the midnight meeting venue first, that's my own, goodnight" She adjusted her pillow and lay back down, backing me.
I shook my hèad, I guess it's high time we changed venue, I thought to myself, I can't risk my precious kid sister finding out about my sexcapades. I made up my mind to call the pastor later the next day to explain everything to him, so that he will hasten up with the plans to rent us a place. Meanwhile, I still had my uncle to deal with and they will be here to pick us on their way back, a day after tomorrow. I had already gotten him exactly where I wanted him, and it was the best time to start demanding for money from him.
The next day, I went to the back of the house to call my uncle, I looked around to make sure I was alone, before dialling his number, he picked at first ring "So if I don't call, you won't call to check up on me abi? Where's your love? It's only to mount me with reckless abandon you know how to do. Since you travelled, you've neither called me nor sent an sms, at least, even if not for anything, but to check how we are fairing" I kept forming vexing and ranting at him, but he didn't say anything, I looked at my phone screen to check if the call was still reading and wondered why he wasn't saying anything to me, I said "hello" and the next thing I heard was, "Ekene, I have heard you, am observing prayers with my wife and we will be back next tomorrow, keep those files safe for me, I will call you as soon as I get back, so that we can fix a meeting. Regards to your family" and he ended the call.
I almost blew up out of anger, what the fuck? How could he pretend not to know who I was? Has God arrested him? Or was he just pretending for the sake of his wife? I didn't know what to think, my chest was heaving as I closed my eyes and recounted all the time he was pounding away on top of me, and those times he Will call me out at midnight and have me inside his car, or the times I knelt on a hard floor and bore the pains, just to satisfy his insatiable sexual urge.
At that moment, a tear dropped from my eyes, for the first time, I was filled with regrets and my hate for him and his wife grew, kai. I was always indifference about my Uncle because he hadn't done anything bad to me, it was his wife I hated because of how evil she was, I knew the only way to get back at her was to destroy her marriage, that was why I started sleeping with her husband in the first place, but the way he responded to me on the phone, really broke my heart. I wiped my tears and went upstairs, as I made to open the door to my room, he called me, I quickly ran back downstairs to pick his call, but this time, I didn't remember to check around to make sure I was alone before picking.
He apologised for speaking to me the way he did and explained why he did so, "my wife has been close marking me lately, I don't know why, I miss you so much but I can't even get an alone time to call you because of her, forgive me, inugo? How's that side na, I hope you are really taking good care of it for me? You know what I mean" he chuckled, I laughed, "it's okay, uncle, I actually thought you have dumped me or something, I was really sad.
As for my vagina, I know it's what you are asking about, it's not fine o, I have Chlamydia. You gave me infection and I am not happy with you at all, I think it's high time we started doing it with condom, after I finish treating myself and I also need big money o, I need to start saving your money too, it's not only Aunty that will be enjoying it, after all, you are now eating from both of us" I finished. "Hian, is that one the problem?...
