Honestly! "Honey, you now know how the cult operates. Do you now think we are killers ? People generally have the wrong impression about us, they think because you are in cult you must be a killer". He said.
"You were the ones that radiated this behavior, when all we hear is cult fight and deaths" I replied.
"I have never killed anybody before in my entire life. I don't depend on confra to do my fight. I also don't believe in violence"
"I will take your word for it but, if I ever hear anything contrary to what you said I will never forgive you." I told him bluntly.
Our heart to heart conversation took us almost three hours, it was soul lifting. I was really tired but I just had to listen because this is the beginning of a whole new future for us.
We left the lagoon front hand in hand. He saw me off to my hall but, didn't come inside the room. I was happy because, I wasn't yet ready to face anybody.
I was on my way up the stairs when I jammed Angel, the wrongest person to meet.
"Honey I have been looking for you, have you heard?"
"What?" I asked in reply
"That the crew are in cult, 'Omo bone' {Ignore}. Immediately, I heard I went to meet Chinma"
"Aren't you guys fighting?"
"No now! He had already sent people to look for me before I saw the list, so I went searching for him. Anyway, I saw him talking with some guys outside his hall, he was looking sad and lonely."
"That will be the day!" I thought to myself.
"I went to meet him, he bribed the porters so I could go to his room. He yarned with me for a long time, he has a big post in confra."
"Yeah, right and of course this was the trick he used to have sex with her." Thinking to myself again.
"He is the only one that has post, the others don't have. Have you seen Seyi?"
"I didn't know you still remembered him, I thought you were still tripped to remember every other person"
"I do now, do you know they are going to be expelled?"
"I'm in this school as well it's not news."
"So did Seyi apologise for not telling you?"
"Did Chinma apologise to you? I knew before I started going out with him"
"How did he tell you?"
"Let me rest ojare! I will gist with you later".
With that I went to my room to lie down, I didn't see Bisola. Maybe she has gone to see her boyfriend. I ignored my roommates and just slept.
It was Bisola that finally woke me up, only to see Angel again on the bed beside me.
I don't understand maybe I was cursed I don't know, why must she always come to see me.
"You are a wicked girl, why didn't you tell me when I started going out with him?"
"Me tell her, I would rather die first," I thought to myself.
"I didn't think it was important, I wanted him to tell you with his own mouth" I said out loud.
"So all this time those things that call themselves flyers were disturbing me.
I didn't know I had someone to warn him or her.
Chinma would have warned them.
"The power of confra is all she wants, silly thing," I thought to myself.
"Can't you fight for yourself, are you guys Siamese twins because I don't understand why he has to fight your fight."
"Don't you understand, that way they will heed on time." She said.
"Are you serious? I didn't know that". I said sarcastically.
"Honey, you don't know anything, I even ..."
"Go away I'm just waking up" it was said in a joking kind of manner.
My sake came today, about the same thing.
"Can't they just leave the list alone". She came about it too of cause.
"Does everybody have to talk about the list, isn't there a new thing to talk about? Before you the whole room has been discussing about it, now it's you, you shouldn't have been surprised we were told together by Emeka."
"Take it easy nobody is pointing accusing fingers at you. Like you said you knew before going out with him, you should have been prepared for this not to be touchy about it. Our prayer now is for them not to be sent out of school."
"I sincerely hope so too." I said
She was in my room till 10pm, I saw her off to the bus stop to catch a bus to main campus, since she was spending the night at Moremi with her friend.
I woke up with hunger pangs in the morning. I hadn't eaten throughout yesterday.
Bisola had lectures from 8-12 straight. I didn't feel like going for lectures till evening.
After, eating breakfast at the canteen downstairs, I went back to bed. I was woken up around noon by Bisola, she burst into the room
"Bisola, what is it? Didn't your lecture hold again?
"Kasala don burst!" (There is trouble)
"What trouble?" I asked jumping up from the bed.
