It All Started With A DM....

Chapter 26 💟

Fisayo didn't come back to the room. It was past 11 already, I called him several times but he didn't pick, some minutes later he switched off his phone.

I was worried and tired at the same time. I had cried my eyes out, I then had to spend a long time in the shower then later decided to read, school had to come before anything... Before Fisayo. I had to convince myself.

I tried reading but the words just kept on playing and jumping around. At a point they looked like they were dancing.

I then decided to exercise my body, I needed to do something to take my mind away from Fisayo. I couldn't call the girls, I didn't have to disturb them with my life's burden all the time.

While stretching my legs I made up my mind.

When Fisayo comes back, I'd explain everything, I'll let him know how I went to the bar with Olivia and how she added TM to my drink, I'll just have to tell him everything.

But at midnight, he was still not back.
I couldn't deceive myself anymore, I was hurt and feeling bad, I needed to talk to someone.
My friends were out of the list, I couldn't call my brothers, they wouldn't say much.

I scrolled through my contact list hopelessly.
There was nobody to call, out of frustration, I scrolled up angrily and the contacts stopped at T.

Tammy, Tee, Tedius.... Timi.

I couldn't call Timi, we weren't talking, I mean he embarrassed me by asking me to cook the other time and besides, he was partially the reason for my fight with Fisayo, I couldn't talk to him!

Did he really embarrass me?
Goat! Learn to cook

Was he truly the reason for the fight?
Maybe, maybe.

He had tried calling me before but I didn't pick.

The little time I spent with him, I got to know he was an hard guy, he didn't care if you liked him or not. He never tried to impress anyone and he wouldn't want to force himself on someone.

Fisayo was probably thinking I had something going on with Timi, ew no!
He was just an annoying frie... He wasn't even my friend.
He was just an interesting person.

I have never one day admired him or think of having a future with him, no.

Fisayo was just so stupid for not waiting to listen to me, I had to let him know he was really stupid, he was even 'stupider' for slamming the door on me and was 'stupidest' for staying out late.

I called Timi and while it was ringing, I changed my mind and ended the call. What was I going to tell him? Why does it even feel this way? Why do I have to think my brain out before calling him?

I wanted to die when he called back almost immediately. Should I pick this or not?

I picked it but didn't say anything.

"Hello "

" Benita "

" you called me and now you're not talking "

" for Christ sake, I can hear the music playing in the background, stop being childish and talk to me, I have something else doing "

That was it!
Who was he talking to that way?

" What's wrong with you, why would you think I was being childish by not talking to you, what if something was happening to me and I couldn't talk?

I hated it when he laughed. He was laughing hard at me after what I said.

"Nothing is happening to you Benny. God I've missed your silly talks, how are you? "
