I hadn't taken a nice shower like this since mum first got back from the hospital; the bath had taken longer that day because I aimed to impress.
Just thinking about it made me review my life since she passed on. I drank, smoked, occasionally used drugs and had meaningless sex with unknown people who were getting boring by the way, this night what i need is something different-a distraction and I hoped Fayo had that.
When I left the shower, Fayo was nowhere in sight but a note on the bed told me she was at the pool area waiting for me. I quickly dried my body and wore a short since I was going to the pool which was not difficult to find but what I didn't not expect to see, was Fayo smoking looking so relaxed with her eyes closed.
I slowly walked towards her and admired everything I could; she seemed to always things under control although I knew she was a big teddy when emotional. Her swimsuits exposed her breasts, hips and no doubt butt but she still had that elegance drip.
"Take a picture so you could jerk off later", she suggested with her eyes still closed that freaked me out.
"Why did you bring me here", I asked, tired of playing her games and wanting to sleep already.
"When I was a little girl my mum shipped me to leave with grandma with the excuse of wanting to spend more time with dad; I was mad angry. I refused eating of showering, I burnt my toys and decided I would grow up to be a warrior", she stated and placed her legs in my laps but I was busy laughing at her story.
"Eventually, I grew up and realized that mum sent me to grandma's place to save me from the terrible heartbreaking of one- remembering I was raped, two-seeing my dad being arrested and taken to prison", she continued and inhaled from the cigarette again.
"After years of questioning what my dad could have done to be convicted for such a long period of time, mum finally told me it was for killing a man that had raped a young girl not older than me back then", it made me happy that he was there for a good course and not for something I could not forgive.
"What is the point of this story because it has nothing to do with how I'm feeling", I frowned and collected the cigarette from her, taking a drag. She smile but continued.
"I found out recently that the girl that man raped was me", she dropped with tears in her eyes now.
"What the actual fuck! How did I not know this?" my voice thundered surprised us both.
"I was mad, not at my dad but at mum and Tim who kept it from me for years before telling me. I remember having nightmares of someone hurting me but she'll ignore and say I should pray against the monsters", Fayo explained with so much sadness.
"Tim on the other hand knew the same thing happened when I was entered university but instead of staying and helping me deal with it, he left for fucking England in the name of school when he had a scholarship here in this country, so when I finally found out he was aware of everything and still left, I exploded and lashed out on him. I hated that he ghosted on me when I needed him the most since I could not tell my mum", Fayo's voice was hoarse now from either smoking or crying.
"I'm sorry you felt that much pain, this is my first time of hearing such sad story", I consoled and hugged her. I knew she has her demons but I could not imagine how difficult it must have been to go through a terrible ordeal twice and alone.
"It might not be the same story with yours but your sister's decision to leave seems like a huge betrayal to you because she's leaving you to deal with the pain alone especially knowing how much you depend on her", she rightly said making me really angry.
"I don't want to talk about it", I warned quietly because a bottle of wine was placed in front of us by a young lady who was surprising eye-raping Fayo and not me.
