The second day was market
day, sikirat came to my house as usual. This time, she wasn’t
looking happy.
ME: sikkybaby, what’s
wrong with you?
SIKIRAT: just leave me
ooooooooo
ME: what’s
wrong?, have I offended you?
SIKIRAT: I heard aunty janet
calling you on phone yesterday saying she has reached home. It means she came
here
yesterday.
ME: rara oooo, she called me
that she wanted to go somewhere, and I told her to let me know when she is back
maybe I could come and tutor her. That’s all
SIKIRAT: are you sure?
ME: yes dear. Don’t
you trust me again?
SIKIRAT: ****smiles*****, u
thought she came here ni, I don’t want to share you
with anybody
ME: ****wahala don dey
ooo****. Trust me dear .
She smiled, we had a 40mins
maths lesson, then a hot 2 rounds of sex before she leaving for market after
collecting her earing. Week after week. I continued my tutorial at the white
house. I don’t Bleep janet there. Instead, I will do that whenever
she
comes to my house. I was always
serious whenever I was around. If janet wants to be free with me, she will send
sikirat on an errand because I told her that sikirat might inform madam about
us. And when its friday nights, I will resume my sexcapades with sikirat. I so
much like sikirat because she was
skillful, smart and
intelligence, but I love janet because of her milk factory. Sikirat was
becoming suspicious about I and janet, but I will keep assuring her that
nothing was going on. And she
dare not to confront janet
about it. Everything was going smoothly Not until about 4 weeks to jamb when
madam called me to see her on a sunday evening and its very important, she was
so scary on the fone. I was scared “cheiii, wind don
blow, fowl yarnsh don open”.
]After church on that sunday,
my mind wasn’t settled. I was wondering what could have happened?,
why madam’s voice was so harsh?, why she wanted to see me
urgently?. I summoned the
courage and went to the white
house.
I entered the compound,
knocked on the door. On entering the house, I met janet, sikirat and madam in
the living room. Janet was sitting beside madam while Sikirat knelt down at the
corner
of the 3-seater.
I was so scared that my heart
was beating heavily. The look on sikirat’s face was indicating
that she was in trouble. Madam wasn’t smiling either.
Janet looked at me with a straight face and this scared me the more.
MADAM: onihaxy, welcome
ME: yes ma. How was service
today?
MADAM: ***dropped her
drinking cup on the stool***. It was fine.
I heard something about you
so I sent for you
ME: ***temi bami, heart
beating heavily, looked at sikirat and still
clueless***, hope nothing ma?
MADAM: there is a problem.
Meanwhile, can you see sikirat over there?
ME: **wahala don happen, dem
don catch us*** yes ma. What was her offence ma?
MADAM: she has started
stealing. Whenever she went to market, its either money get lost, or she buys
item lesser than the list I gave her. I even heard she is having a boyfriend in
this
neighbourhood.
ME: **i looked at sikirat
again, I felt guilty because I knew I was the reason for the food shortage, her
eyez were soaked with tears** mummy, please forgive her ma. She won’t
do that again.
JANET: **interfered into the
coversation**, sikirat is just too lazy
and silly. Her funny
character this days is becoming alarming. It seems she is pregnant sef.
ME: ***screamed** preg what ?
MADAM: sikirat!!!!, is that
true
SIKIRAT: no ma oooo, I’m
not pregnant ma**panting***.
MADAM: first thing tomorrow
morning, I’m taking you to the hospital for a test
ME: ****chaiiii, I don enter
am. But I always condomize my sex?,
or has it ever leaked or
burst?, or is sikirat having another f****r?, can she truly be pregnant?, I
became uncomfortable*****. I trust sikirat very well ma. She doesn’t
look wayward to me, I’m very sure she isn’t pregnant ma. Pls
forgive her ma.
MADAM: you are saying so
because you don’t live with us here. If you live here, you would known
better that she is lazy and useless. sikirat!, get out of my sight, I will
resume with you later.
So lesson teacher, back to my
previous discussion.
ME: ***heart skipped beats
again. This time, I heart beat could be noticed by the movements of my
cloth***. Ok ma. What happened ma?
MADAM: I went through janet’s
lesson note and discovered that it was scanty.
ME: really?
MADAM: yes, infact, I gave
her an exercise from past questions and she failed it.
ME: haa
MADAM: and she told me that
you haven’t be frequent and regular again.
ME: ***i looked into janet’s
eyes with disappointment, she looked at me with a somehow face. “this
is a pure lie, she was the one skipping classes. But how do I justify this****
MADAM: so is this what I’m
paying you for?,
ME: not so ma. I can explain,
eeemmmm.
JANET: ***before I could
utter a word, janet interfered***, no ma, most of the time, we always do oral
tutorial, so I don’t write much notes, he is trying his best ma.
MADAM: but I’m
not satisfied. JAMB is just 3 months away, I can’t
watch you fail again this time.
ME: I will improve ma. I will
try my best
MADAM: this is what I want. I
want you to engage her in tutorials throughout the day. Even saturday and
sunday should be inclusive. After dinner, she should be having sessions before
going to her bedroom. We can
re-negotiate the fees, I just want the best for her.
ME: ok ma. But concerning the
sessions after dinner, it will be a bit difficult because of my area. Its
dangerous walking around at nights.
MADAM: then start living here
for the duration. Afterall I have given you a room here, you are the one who
refused to use it. I will even prefer you stay here so that you can help me to
handle sikirat with iron hand, it seems janet cannot handle her alone in my
absence.
ME: ok ma, no problem.
Chaii, e don happen, living
in same house with my 2 fuckers. How I go take do am?..
