CHAPTER ELEVEN*

💗❤️💞🔥

EFYA GWENIBOAT'S POV

Can she really not see how upset I am? I discontinued such a perfect therapy and moment of my life, relaxing my nerves, my heart and mind with such a priceless voice, only for this?

What disaster have I accepted into my home? "Seriously, this is all that it's about Sandy? Do you know what you've cost me? You told me it was "pretty urgent" !" I vented

"Sorry girl , wasn't ma fault she said tell her I said it's pretty urgent and I did exactly that..."

She added, grabbing my bottle for a sip when I snatched it back. " You ruined my mood and you wan'ma water too? Sort yourself out somewhere else will you?" I walked out while she followed back after grabbing one on her own.

On opening my main door Anita's conversation with Brad pierced my ears, as I signaled Nancy who wanted to interrupt from the other side not to.

Sandra peeped.

"Why? I've known her for quite a while and... She's not that much of a difficult person, that poor thing didn't deserve that, you know?" She stared innocently at him whiles taking a lean towards the barricade.

What is she up to anyway, and what are they discussing? Brad tucked in his lips feeling quite embarrassed.

"What are they discussing? It looks pretty sensitive,..  Looking at Brad?" I questioned clueless Sandra.

"Girl I don't know their issues from Adam, but with that devious look written all around her, she's definitely tryna dig something dirty outta him! It could probably be about you... shrrh! She's continuing" she replied quite certain of her prediction.

" Don't feel bad about it... She's just so innocent and indecisive, I'm pretty sure she was clueless as to what relationships like that entailed. Hey! You're a man okay and it's normal, I just felt bad for you when she told me you guys weren't having that between you... It must have been hard for you!"

"Okay, I needn't hear more to know this is about me, but when did I ever have any conversation with her?" I questioned Sandra again.

" I told ya... It's just one of her fibs, she sure would be a good actress, she's pretending to be innocent all too well!" She replied again.

"she's tryna dig something that she can stand against me with..." I discerned.

"Yeah, just like Nancy did back then. Look at her with those unfortunate honesty in her eyes, how can Brad see her true intentions?" Sandra commented.

I took a stare at Brad, he's got nothing bad on me, but Anita is an expert at creating a bomb out of a complete different sets of stories.

I sometimes wonder why she's not a writer but... If Brad surely knew me well back then, he will catch that loophole in her lies, I wasn't slow witted to Know what such a relationship was all about.

We both had that understanding not to get dirty whiles we were at it, we could cuddle, kiss and all that but going beyond those was out of the context.

As I held the door handle to burst out with my wild side held high, Brad's next words upheld my falling self esteem off guard, and somehow threw my intention out the window.

"Aren't you too old for this kinda games? As far as I know Efya she's very confidential with everything she's about..." He began,
"she wouldn't even have such a conversation with her friends, and knowing her the way I do... You don't seem an inch close to someone she will consider a friend!" I subconsciously let go of the door handle.

"I don't like to be used that way... Seriously! I hate people who does that, perhaps next when you wanna hang with me we should avoid centering what others are about!" He added.

"wait, wait! Seriously... There's been a misunderstanding here, why get agitated about such a trivial matter I'm just trying to show my concern okay!"

Anita tried to argue when he grabbed his car keys, he chuckled and raised his brows whiles looking at her face.

"Really? That seems true but, I don't wan'you to! I'll love to connect with you as a neighbor, not your conspiracy partner, Efya is...  Great, it doesn't matter how you choose to see her, it's a big sickness of yours if, you don't like her the way she is!"

I noticed Nancy scoff and shaking her head at that, it does sound pretty touching to me, and Sandra... Well she  just folded her arms with a smirk on her face and narrowing her eyes at Anita's loss.

Yeah I can't tell which side she has taken, not giving Anita any chance to defend her aimless concern, I yanked the door wide open to grab their attention which I succeeded.

Before I would say anything to them, I noticed Nancy rushing towards us, what's she planning? "Oh, you're around? I thought you had gone to church, good morning by the way?" Brad reached out.

"Yeah, I pretty much overslept so I couldn't make it, oh Anita! Never thought I would see you right in front of my door this morning or any other day in general?" I folded my arms pretending not to have heard them earlier, I noticed Nancy slowing down her pace.

"It's opposite, landlady! I came to meet our new neighbor, you know to acquaint myself with him as we will be living together now... Do you have any problem with that sweet landlady?"

"No no! Definitely not, take your time okay, and have a great day Brad!" Sandra replied and dragged me away afterwards.

We headed towards the backyard and Nancy followed, the recurring of events has woken something we long buried and its effect is showing right now.

I'm not gonna go deep on that because it happened before we became friends and it was really hard to get over it, on both sides, I remember it like an edited video from yesterday.

It was such a cruel bullying, but we were just senseless kids okay, better let it go!

"Are you mad at me again? Sorry I did that, seeing someone else do it today, even being the surface aspect of what I did back then, now creates my awareness of how hard it must have been for you back then..." Nancy pleaded again.

"Come on don't think about it, I'm not mad at you! Our lives haven't been that easy why bother with that too? It's long buried okay, let's not allow this place tension between us now... I would really get mad if it does!" I stated, managing to see a smile on her face.

"We're buddies... Though I only wished something cruel would happen to you one day, like an accident where you'll wail and wallow in pain" ... Yeah, this was my prayer back then, I got playful to cheer her up.

"Okay, I'll try and get into one for your sake..." Sandra went wide eyed, she folded her arms and stared our way as if we were bunch of fools.

"Yes I would really appreciate that, and even more when the car is a cargo truck!"

From no where Sandy smashed the back of my head real hard...
