Episode 7

'Hello' Nino laid tired on his bed, he was still recovering from the journey. The journey was smooth apart from when they had a flat tire around Ibadan, Zibu's dad wouldn't allow her phone rest. He called every 30 minutes to inquire where they were, like they were suppose to teleport themselves to Lagos. At some point she had to put the phone on flight mode.

'guy how far na, How was the journey?' Fa'ad said

'Guy allow me sleep na, it's just 7 A.M'

'Well, the journey was cool then' fa'ad laughed

'Guy you never update your blog since that day, how far na?'

Nino looked at the phone with disgust and hung up. After that call Nino couldn't go back to bed, at that point if fa'ad was in front of him, a slap would have done justice. After much deliberation, Nino finally left the bed, got his laptop from his bag and started typing away. He needed to update his blog, before he started unpacking.

"I don't even know why i am even doing this" He muttered to himself

I've bin Looking for love all my life apart from parental love or friends love.. I searched so hard for this kinda love but it was so scarce, i gave up all hopes. Then i came across an Ibo girl and "mistakenly" asked her out, Unfortunately for me this girl was so not what her physical self depicts and she also thinks off point, not that she was not beautiful but she wasn't just my type, very annoying girl. I mean, which girl calls her boy friend 15 times in 30 minutes all in d name of "i just wanna hear your voice". It might look like I'm feeling myself because a girl is head over heels in love with me, but guys you too check am out now. HABA!!.. I just kept her there so i can boast whenever boys boast of girlfriends too. GOD so love me i never "touched" her let alone "kiss" then d worst of them all "SEX"..

On this faithful day on Facebook, i met this girl, we have been Facebook friends for a long time but i never for once initiate a chat with her or commented on any of her photos or updates but that day i was in my "prime" mode. Normally, all i wanted was for us to be casual/literal friends because i was kind of thinking the girl was too beautiful to be my gf{i get intimidated by very beautiful girls}, I'm this kind of guy that believes I'm not up-to the task of taking care of "very" beautiful girls. How much does it cost to manage a Rolls Royce Phantom or Lamborghini? Do the calculation.. So i messaged her as a normal guy would have done,thinking she was gonna snub me like other Facebook chicks do...but fortunately for me she replied and we started chatting...we chatted for some minutes then it turned to hours, then days, oboi!! e enter weeks.

So, i thought we could take this to another level,then i asked for her number (No rushing) thinking she wasn't gonna give me or I'll have to persuade a little. But to my greatest dismay, she gave me the number then i called and she wasn't that friendly on the phone (1st time) After that 1st call i didn't have any intentions of calling her again because i thought it was gonna be irrelevant, you know those kind of girls you meet online and just get to know them and add them to your contact list for a +1.. Unfortunately for me my phone got faulty, after 2 weeks i decided to get another phone on switching on the phone with my old Sim in it the 1st message i received was from her saying and i quote; "Sup¿ tried calling buh ur fone's lyk swtchd off.hp u gud.just wntd 2 check u up. Tkea" just a friend checking up on a friend as usual, so i assumed. I didn't want to think she was interested in me, at this point it would send me into "Franic" mode (Freaked + Panic). Don't judge me.

Then we started texting back and forth, it then became like an addiction, i was always on my phone 24/7 i never allowed my friends touched my phone without my consent, i was getting to know her and she was engaging me more, it was like I'd never ever go bored again cos she was very jovial and she never makes a conversation go dry though i did most of d joke-cracking but she'd always tried to reciprocate gestures. As at the time i wrote this original note she has sent me 923 messages and i have sent her 1009 messages and this is just 3 weeks 5 days after we started exchanging messages.
