The
girl that made the groom unable to sleep neither alone nor with his wife woke
up from the bed of the groom’s best man at 2am.
She
did not plan to go out with anyone that evening since the next day was Sunday
and she had church to attend, but the best man had been too persuasive. He
bugged her throughout the wedding reception, becoming her personal usher, and
when she announced that she was leaving, he volunteered to be her chauffeur.
But for his car- a Audi S8 2015 model, she would have gracefully refused his
offer to drive her home so as to go with the friend that brought her to the
wedding.
When
they reached her friend’s hostel- where she was staying, she turned to her
“voluntary chauffeur” that hadn’t stopped talking throughout the fifteen
minutes of their journey and asked, “Do you do mobile banking?” “Ye...es” he
answered surprisingly. “Then these are the terms” she said, in a soft straight
official voice; “we’ll have one round only, you’ll drop me at my place by 7am.
You will pay twenty thousand naira into my account now. If you are not okay
with it forget about it”. Seeing the shock in his face, she made to alight from
the car, he stopped her, “okay!”. She expected him to refuse her terms, in fact
she gave those terms to drive him away; he surprised her.
It
was the persistent knock on the door by 2am that woke her. At first she did not
want to wake up, she tried her best to cling to the sleep she battled out of
the hand of the best man’s snoring; her best was not enough. She woke up with
curses on her mouth, turned to the best man-he was still light years away from
waking up. Her tapping of him grew into shoves, the only reason she did not
believe he was dead was his snoring.
Back
then, when he accepted her twenty thousand naira charge for one round of sex,
she thought she had made huge profit. Right now, she was feeling grossly
underpaid. The best man grinded out of her every penny; that she did not collapse
from exhaustion is a miracle. He did not just stop at drenching all her energy;
his snoring refused her the sleep she needed to recuperate. Just when she
succeeded in falling asleep, the knock on the door shattered her dreams,
literally.
The
best man finally came back to life, “somebody is knocking at your door” she
said, he heard her at her third time of repeating it. It took the 120kg man
forever to get to the light switch and as long as that to get to the door.
However, she didn’t care, she shut her eyes as she tried to get back to the
sleep the knock had driven away. Her eyes did not remain closed for long; a
voice woke her, a shocked voice.
He could not believe his eyes, but it was
definitely her- the girl that had charmed him at his wedding, the girl that
caused the beginning of the end of his just beginning marriage. She was not the
only he wished not to believe, he did not want to believe that she was in the
bed of his best man, best friend and confidante, the only one he told about her
during the reception... Episode 4 next week friday..
