When Cyril arrived to his house every single thing that is found in his house seemed to be his enemy for he believed that the experience he had at the park was a thing he never for once in his life time thought of having. The dream he had of their beautiful moment has taken a place in his mind that it has refused to leave, her attitude in the car has seriously left him thinking because in his whole womanizing experience he has never encountered such drama between him and a girl, even the statement she dropped for him when he asked her a question can’t stop being a surprise to him even when he knew he expected no answer from her at that moment. Cyril was ruminating on all this till when the power of nature overtook him.

**********************

Along the pathway to the female hostels of the university, many students were moving here and there . The campus had become lively again after about four months of industrial action embarked upon by the university workers.  The noise from motor vehicles and auto bikes was soon drowned by human noise in the wake of the increasing number of students in the campus.

Some decades ago, the population of students in the university was half the present number. The university had continued to admit students by fair or foul means

. As long as you could afford the required “runs fee” admission would be yours, whether you merited it or not. Corruption was pandemic in Ebonyi.

Also no less intriguing was the way the university authorities treated their students. They never gave a damn about student’s welfare in the university. The hostel rooms originally designed to accommodate two students now housed about six student occupants, not to mention squatters. The sporadic and intermittent water supply and epileptic power supply in the university all contributed to making life in the campus miserable. Every discerning mind cast blame on EBSU government.

Walking abreast with Jennifer was a fair skin, slim, tall and comely girl. She had blue eyes-relatively small and twinkling. Her hips swung from side when she walked. The black mini-styled skirt and spaghetti styled blouse she had on exposed her natural frame. In her wear she looked decent.

“Zoba, I have never in my life been disturbed emotionally by any guy in my life like this guy I have been telling you about, the very first day I saw him which was the day my elder brother celebrated his birthday in our compound, I ran inside my room because I couldn’t just withstand looking at his face.

. Just as if that was not enough yesterday when I was coming back to school I felt stranded on the way, it was as if all the whole vehicles went on strike, I stood along the road for almost an hour but I couldn’t see any vehicle. Could you imagine that the first car I saw which I was waving to stop for a lift was this guy’s car? When he stopped I didn’t just know what to do, I remained speechless and motionless, he came down from his car and carried my luggage into the car, I can’t stop imagining all these happened babe”.

Chizoba laughed uncontrollably and that attracted the attention of the students passing by, Jennifer felt embarrassed by her laughter and drew her to a corner where she pleaded with her to stop such an embarrassing laughter.

“Jennifer”, Chizoba called her, “Tell me, who is this guy who has really eaten deep into you? Talk to me my good friend; for it is so obvious from the words of your lips band the looks in your eyes that you are already in love with this guy”.

 

Jennifer shunned her and denied ever having a feeling for Cyril, but Chizoba made mockery of her for denying such a naked truth. After some arguments by the two friends, Jennifer then accepted the fact that she was in love but her only problem is Cyril’s relationship with his elder brother.

Chizoba on hearing that changed her mood and became so inquisitive to hear more from her. Jennifer explained to Chizoba “Chizoba sometimes when I remember the drama which took place on the day my elder brother had his birthday I begin to feel ashamed of myself because I just ended up in becoming a wayward girl. I am still recovering from the shock of that day. And the whole thing got soared when told me that he was the Cyril he used to tell me about, honestly I refused to believe it but the truth remains the truth. It looked incredible”. After a while Chizoba acted like someone who just came back from a little trance and told her that falling in love with a guy who is her brother’s best friend or whatever she called wasn’t bad. She went ahead telling her that love had no restriction or any limit at all. All these Chizoba was telling her seemed as if she was pouring water on stone. After some other discussions between the two girls Chizoba brought up the idea of them going to New Heaven Eating Café where the students in the campus go to take their meals, which is only for students that are not consistent in cooking food by themselves.
