The Reunion (Nigerian Themed novel)

🌹12🌹

                  🌹Bacons and sausages🌹

Victor's Pov.

I woke up to the aroma of sausages and bacon that sifted across the room, my eyes were still blurry and it was difficult accentuating my surrounding, using the back of my palms i rubbed my eyes removing the thick covers from my body. My eyes widened in shock as I took in my surrounding, not only was it strange but it looked too girly.

Beside the bed i laid on, a small thermometer sat on a table along side some tablets with half glass of water that had been covered with a lid.

What was happening?.

After the news from my parents ,had I in any way passed out and had been admitted to a hospital?.

But hospitals weren't so girly and from my experience bacons and sausages weren't made in hospitals.

I took in my appearance and realized I was clad in just a singlet and my boxers.The suit I had worn earlier was draped on a pink couch . The room was half the size of mine and occupied two student sized bed with few furniture's clustered around.

Was this some sort of joke!

"Finally your awake ".Came a feminine voice filling the room ,first I thought I had seen a leg but it went out of sight following loud chuckles outside the door, then a not so familiar head peeped in looking me over.

"Good morning am Ronke, Kemi's Friend". She greeted waving from afar.

I threw my head back and the flash back came in, reminding me of why I was here. Kemi had come to the lounge and I had embarrassed myself throwing up every second but after all that I couldn't recall how I had followed her home.

She was going to definitely see me as one of those loose men that go about drinking till stupour.fuck!!.

"Are you ok?". Ronke questioned jolting me back to consciousness , unlike kemi she was chubbier.

Feeling uneasy and awkward I ran my hand over my head sighing .

"I guess am better" . I replied almost in whispers." Where is Kemi?. I questioned increasing my tempo.

"I am here". A feminine voice echoed from within as she pouted her face to the door , holding a tray on both hands. Ronke whispered something to her making her chuckle hiding her gaze away from mine.

Was it a habit for them to gossip in front of strangers or it was just me.

"Good morning". Kemi greeted walking to my direction, she wore a black mickey mouse sweater and grey shorts revealing her light skinned thighs .She placed the tray to the table and sat on the couch.

"I am so sorry about the inconveniences, I swear am not usually like this " .

I was explaining my self and i didn't like any bit of it, her facial expression wasn't comprehendible but she nodded at intervals with her gaze keenly on me.

"I understand you ". She replied with a faint smile on her face.

"You do?". I replied almost immediately surprised at how she took in the whole situation lightly.

"Ya sure I do"." I have been in your shoes too so i get the whole situation". She replied opening the plate of food she had brought it. Again the sweet smell of bacons and sausages filled in making my stomach dance deliciously.

"Are you been serious?" . I questioned sitting up and waiting for her response .

Did her parents also deceive her just like mine did? .

She cleared her throat handing over my cellphone to me, i hadn't realized it wasn't with me.

"Am sorry I didn't mean to pry in your personal life ".She replied making me all anxious as I flipped the phone, my gaze still on her.

When she said personal what had she meant? I was hundred percent sure that the news most be on the lips of every blogger by now, so nothing was personal about that.

My eyes widened in shock as I reread the message on my screen , the cold atmosphere instantly became hot and i found myself sweating in the singlet i wore. Kemi seemed to had understood my distress and walked over to the bed taking my hands in her small soft palms.

"Just be calm ok". She pleaded.

"You said you have been in my situation before right?" .I questioned not sure of why I was asking that".

Well some times when you find someone that has been in your present situation before, it makes you feel relieved.

She nodded her head removing my hands away from hers, as she stared into space fidgeting with the words.

Was she pained like me ,did the memories hurt her so much?.

"Well after it happened I became a shadow of myself. I could barely eat , everything irritated me". She explained not mincing out words, I sat listening with rapt attention.

She sure had a bad experience.

"So did your family apologize to you after it had happen ?" . I questioned.

"Apologize keh? She retorted faking a laugh. "My mum warned me severally about the guy, but I was drunk in love and then it happened". She concluded.

I felt like I had misheard her or maybe my sense of hearing were suddenly faulty.

What was she talking about ?

Glancing back towards my phone I scrolled through the previous messages and my gaze caught the short text from Sharon.

Hey Vic things hadn't been smooth with us ,I guess you know .. maybe we are not meant to be.

Xoxo Sharon.

The whole situation became hilarious yet sad, I wasn't a bit surprised that she would suggest a breakup, infact I had taught of it but wanted to face the problem I had in my hands first...... not a relationship problem.

Wait all this while did kemi think I was sobbing over a broken relationship ,to think that she had started to explain her own heartbreak story. It was quite amusing.

Guessing that she had misunderstood me or maybe we had both misunderstood each other i played along to avoid any inconveniences .

"So why did you guys breakup ?" . I questioned gesturing to her to lend me the food from the table, guessed she had forgotten to hand it over since she was all engrossed in the story she was telling.

She kept going on and on with the story and i swear i barely could hear what she said , the message i had read kept reminiscing in my head. It was from kelvin.

Impressive that you now know!! While mum had been suffering with cancer all this year's ,you flew from countries to countries .. You killed mum Victor you did! you had all the money.

The message sent shivers down to my spine and i was only good at hiding it from Kemi but i couldn't bet on how long I could pretend and shield my heart from erupting.

One thing Kelvin wasn't aware of is the fact I was deceived and even if mother had died of cancer that was just another news to me. What more was I deceived of?.
