HOW I MET MY CHEATING GIRLFRIEND

Episode 22

"Yes, it's a deal! I won't let you down." I replied.

"Well. It all depends on you. But I love you so much, Oscar. I also promise I won't disappoint you." Betty texted.

When I reached my house, I left to take a shower that evening. When I was just at the middle of it, my phone rang. I had to come out of the bathroom to pick up the call - of course I was alone in the house - hence, I  had a lot of freedom.

"Are you not yet through with your meeting?" Sweeney asked.

"It's when am back in the house and was taking shower first." I responded.

"Have you finished?"

"Not yet. You called when I was in the bathroom and I had to come out and receive the call."

"Finish up then!"

I went back to bathroom. This time, I was much faster than before. After I had finished, we talked with her about so many things, amongst them the campus life and her experience. "Everything is okay. But..." She said.

"But what?" I asked.

"Hunny, there's a certain boy who's really disturbing me. He got my number from the class WhatsApp group and he keeps on texting and calling me. I told him I have a boyfriend but he still insists!" Sweeney said.

"Who's that an uncultured boy? Please  give me his number now..." I requested.

"But don't fight him. Just show him you're my boyfriend so that he can stop following me as if he's my shadow."

Sweeney sent me the number. Unfortunately, I tried to reach him without any success that night. The following morning, I had to call him again. "Hi man?" I began.

"Hi!" He responded.

"Do you know Sweeney?"

"From?"

"Moi University," I answered.

"Yes. What's up with her?"

"How are you related with her?"

"Why do you ask? And who are you?"

"Am Oscar, her boyfriend. She told me you've been disturbing her and it's high time you stop it!"

"Haha! Bro...I thought you're her dad...just a boyfriend? Haha."

"What's funny about it?"

"She has been telling me about you. Am aware you exist. So, just leave me to do my part." He said.

"What do you mean by that?"

"If that's difficult for you, then marry her and stay with her in your house."

He hanged up the call on me. I tried to call him again and he never received. But wait, did he tell me to leave him do his part? And what was this his part? My good moods for that morning got destroyed and I had to seek the truth from Sweeney.

"Sweeney, are you dating that boy?"

"Are you out of your mind, Oscar?"

"Please answer my question. Are you two dating?" I asked with a commanding voice.

"No!" She answered.

"But he told me that you have never told him you had a boyfriend. You accepted his request. So, he told me to leave me do his part..."

"Please my love. That boy is lying to you. I haven't met with him privately. There was a time he came to our room but even Njeri was around. I told him I had a boyfriend. I can't cheat on you. How could I give you his number if at all we were dating with him?" She explained. I had to believe her.
