episode 72-74
Done with the ice cream, she cleared the plate and came to join me on the bed. Just then, the anger in me pushed out the words from my mouth.
“Who is DOD and Ken?” I asked with my eyes still on my phone.
The question must have caught her unexpectedly as it took her time to recover herself before she replied.
“My….. My friends. They are …… my friends.” She replied stammering.
“Your friends or the people you are cheating on with me or is it the other way round?”
“Excuse me, what do you mean?” she asked shifting away from me.
“The question is as simple as it sounds.” I replied sitting up from the bed.
“Purity it’s obvious you have gone through my chats but whatever you have read there is nothing. And by the way, why did you go through my phone?”
I scoffed and looked at her, “And since when did going through your phone became a crime?”
“The moment you started questioning who I chat with and the contents of my chats.” She fired back angrily.
“Is this supposed to be an explanation of some sort? Is this supposed to be the explanation I get that it’s glaring that you are having an affair behind me? You are practically dating three guys and here you are claiming to love the world outta me. Who the Fork are you?” I threw at her standing from the bed.
“Oh! This is interesting. You are mad with me? You call me a cheat? Then look in the mirror. You think I don’t know? You claim all good and loving yet you keep digging everything with a hole behind my back. You think you are a saint? Then let me have your phone, let me look through it,” she retorted charging for my phone.

Then let me have your phone, let me look through it,” she retorted charging for my phone.
The whole thing was too much from me to comprehend. Here is my girlfriend not even denying or giving some explanations for her actions rather she is accusing me or rather putting up a defense.
“You know what, it’s obvious a lot has been going on behind my back. Since when did you start doing these guys, since when?” I asked trying to calm the raging anger in me.
“You are trying to divert this now right? I said you should give me your phone Mr innocent,” she shouted struggling to get hold of my phone.
“Shania is all this your reaction worth it? I need explanations and not attacks. Who are these guys? Is everything contained in those chats for real?”
“Fork you Purity, just gimme your d--n phone,” she shouted pushing me around still trying to get my phone. When it became obvious that she wouldn’t stop, I handed the phone to her and sat back on the bed staring at her.
Collecting the phone from me, she went and rested her back on the wall pressing away on my phone. After going through my chats looking for some evidence to support her claims but couldn’t find any, she reverted to my call log.
“Mr. Innocent, so much for someone that has a girlfriend yet look at your call log. Purity calling you fifteen times in the last five day and you ain’t Bleeping the bit.ch. Need I talk about your S£x mate here, it’s so obvious you guys are Bleeping yourself nuts and who the hell is Constance? A new catch I guess and you look at me and call me a cheat? Go and Fork yourself dude.” She said and turning around, she sent my phone crashing against the wall scattering it into pieces. Picking up her bag, she left without another word.
I sat still dumbfounded at the whole show down. I couldn’t believe what just happened. Just as she left, IJ came in with questions written all over her face. Seeing the debris of my phone scattered everywhere, she picked some before coming to sit beside me on the bed saying nothing. For a while she said nothing maybe searching her mind for the right words.
“Are you ok?” she asked finally.
Heaving a big sigh, releasing the air trapped inside me for long, I nodded without a word.
“Ok then, I will be in my room if you need anything,” she said and left.

episode 74
It has been one month since the ugly showdown in my room. Shania has not contacted me neither have I. we had gone dark probably waiting for who to call first. At first, I thought I didn’t need her anymore in my life, but as the days ran into weeks, I started missing her.
***********
Two days after she smashed my phone, precisely on Monday, of the following week, I was in the office going through some work when I got a call on my small Nokia torch light phone. The caller introduced himself as an agent to one of the leading online market telling me to come out that he has a delivery for me and is in front of my school gate. I asked him series of questions and convinced that I was the person he was looking for, I went out to meet with him.
I met him and he handed an iphone 5 pack to me asking that I check to know if everything was intact. I asked him who ordered for the phone but he said that he wasn’t allowed to tell me as the person requested. After I pressured him the more, her told me that the order was made by a girl and I shouldn’t bother asking of her name as he wouldn’t divulge. After I checked and everything was complete, I signed and he left.
I didn’t need a soothsayer to tell me that Shania placed the order for the phone. Maybe she thought that by that way, I will call her and probably say a thank you which might lead to us talking but I wasn’t even in the mood to talk to her. I left the phone in it’s pack with the intention of returning it back to her. I had kept using my small Nokia phone. I know she might be checking me up on WhatsApp and if she notice that I haven’t been online, it will compound her worries and she will think that maybe the phone was delivered to a wrong person and that will push her to call or rather she has moved on and forgotten about me and ordered for the phone just to pay back for the one she damaged.

Through the first week, I was moody and kept to myself. IJ had understood and kept her distance approaching me from an arms length keeping everything formal and straight. Purity had also acted like she knew that I wasn’t in the best of mood and never contacted.
After the first week, I had decided to come out from my shell. No need killing myself over someone who doesn’t care.
At the office, things started taking a new shape between Constance and I. Her stares were becoming unusual and long. She had started asking some question which only suggests that she has read or still reading my story. If I help her out with a work, I get appreciated with either a peck or a hug.
After so many disturbances, I had invited her over to my house on a Saturday. Constance, IJ and I had had fun through that day as I took them out. Constance had gotten drunk afterwards and I couldn’t allow her go home like that. I had pleaded with IJ to allow Constance sleep in her room but the drunk girl had refused insisting that she will sleep in my room. She had slept with IJ in my room while I slept over at IJ’s
