I got my seat in the plane, I was to share space with one old man…
His hair was grey all through… beards were full grown…
The man looked to be probably in his late 70s….
After the announcement was made, I put on my headset and went into a relaxing position.. In about 30minutes, we took off…
All the months I spent in S.A, I’ve been with Nolly, who according to
me, is the most beautiful I had set my eyes on. Nolly is that near
perfection everyone talks about… but then, I’m going to meet Shola… who
tied me down with pregnancy, although our love is still there.. To an
extent…
He was busy reading the airline’s magazines, looked like a first flier…
Me: Sir, did you enjoy your stay in S.A?
Elder: *He looks towards me, folding the magazines….* Well son…. You know, I can’t really say it was all fun…and it wasn’t..
Elder: Do you school there?
Me: Yes sir… I school in here in Pretoria… I’m studying I.C.T…
Elder: Ah! That’s good… * As he continues with his magazine*
The conversation wasn’t going as planned so I decided to try my sleep again…
I slept this time around and was woken by 2:45pm, the Pilot announced our arrival to Lagos…
I tried to peep towards the window through my sleeping neighbor….
I could see those houses… Oh baby!
I was so nervous, I couldn’t help myself as we began our decent towards the runway….
After the flight attendant announced the safety precautions, the man was woken.. and he sensed my nervousness…
Elder: Son, what’s going on…
Me: Girlfriend sir…
Elder: Oh… girlfriend … aren’t you young to be in a relationship?
Only if this man knew, I’m not just in a relationship, I’m going to have a family also…
Me: Yes sir… I’m still young… but we are in love..
Elder: Hmm, what do you know about love….
As smart as I could be, I checked his hand to see if a ring can be spotted… NO RING!
Me: Sir, I understand… Thank you!
We buckled our seat belts as the sounds of the engine started ramming harder in our ears…
5 minutes, we’re on the ground in Lagos.
After another 5 minutes, we taxied to the arrival jetway….. as we were asked to prepare for deboarding….
Sitting towards the tail section, it took some time to deboard.
We got out of the plane and through the jetway….
After recovering my luggage, I entered the airport….
And my eyes started wondering….about and about….
Until someone tapped me…
Stranger: Guy, your paper don drop for ground…
I looked on the floor to pick what must have fallen, I saw the paper and
thanked him… after which, I went on towards the exit of the airport.
And there she was, sitting, probably she had been standing all day or
she has been wandering about in the airport… she sat like she was tired
of everything….
Instead of going straight to her, I navigated my way and approached her from the back….
To God be the glory, there was a vacant space beside her, so I dropped my luggage somewhere as I went on to her seat…
Me: Hi… is anyone here *Pointing to the vacant seat*
She looked up, curious to see who could be disturbing her, when she was still expecting her boyfriend….
Shola: Jesus * as she screams so loud * Oh my goodness….
She stands up and tried to hug me… but there was this bulging hindrance….
Her stomach was there….
I put my hands on the stomach….
Me: Wow baby!
She just looked beautiful…. The pregnancy made her look like a wife…. I was so happy…
Shola: How are you? How was your flight?
We started our journey back towards the exit as I got my luggage…
Me: My flight was good… and boring of course…
I put my right hand on her shoulder with the other one on my luggage…
We were out of the airport… and as expected the airport taxis are always present… our hustling brothers….
Driver: To where?
Me: Magodo!
Driver: 3k…
I remembered currency issue so I ran back to get my rands changed.
I was back in no time as I put my luggage in the booth…
I was exhausted from the journey, but here is the love of my entire life sitting beside me after how many years…
Me: Baby, I don’t understand why you’ve to risk yourself… look at your condition now…
Shola: I said I’ve heard… but one thing is if you come to Nigeria 100times, I’ll be at the airport waiting for you…
Me: Yes I know… but not with a baby at hand…
Shola: I understand…
She brought her mouth closer to mine as she took a glance at the driver’s rear mirror….
I responded and kissed her lips…
I didn’t see any difference but it’s Sholas’
Due to the usual Lagos traffic, we got home after spending about 1hour 30minutes on the road
My sister was waiting anxiously….
We got down from the vehicle as I went on to knock the gate…
At once, the gate was opened…
Kemi: * hugs me tightly * Jide!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I responded as she my luggage for me…
To be honest I was overwhelmed that I didn’t realize my pregnant
girlfriend had followed me home… yes my mum know I got someone pregnant
but they’re still against the whole thing…
My sister doesn’t even know anything…
We entered the house and I was so exhausted… shola went to the kitchen straight… I was surprised…
I went on to my room, as my sister came on to meet me…
Kemi: Jide… how are you?
Me: I’m okay… but I’m tired.. so tired sef.
Kemi: Sorry…
Me: Who tidied my room like this? *spotting was all in place and there
was this huge scent….* *I was about hugging her for a job well done…
Kemi: Ah!… it’s sister Shola o…
Me: Sister Shola how? How do you even know her name?
Kemi: ahnahn…. What do you mean… she’s been coming regularly now… so she
came to tidy yesterday… that’s why the scent is still around..
Me: *looking confused* I don’t understand what you’re saying o…. like this same shola?
Kemi: Yes now, your fiancée….
Me: How did that happen?
