DIARY OF AN ADDICT - Episode 9

.
Me: (Feeling like Obama, I was like) Errrmmmm, considering my status, one who commands unwavering fealty and reverence, I’ll speak to you about the place tomorrow
.
Grace: Jooor oooo. Igwe! I hear you sir




Me: Thanks my queen
.
Grace: Queen. Abeg o. Thanks for the call. You made my day
.
Me: You’re most welcome. Have a splendid day. Bye
.
Ends call. Now, am I a genius or not?
.
As promised, I called Grace the following day. We exchanged pleasantries as if we’ve known each other for ages. Talk about Grace’s maturity; she’s just second to none. I was about telling her our meeting point when she said, “See let’s meet at your place. I’ll prefer your place to anywhere else, I don’t want to be too exposed.” I don’t know if I should leap for joy or scream. Anyways, I was so happy she chose to come, at least, I’ll have all the time in the world, confidence, freedom and what have you. Wednesday, 2pm was our agreed date and time. “Ok sir. See you Wednesday. I got to go now. I’ve a whole lot of chores to do. Bye” “Bye Grace.” The call ended
.
This deal was struck on Monday. So, that leaves me with almost 38hrs of preparation. Quickly, I removed all my curtains, bedspread, dirty laundry and every other washables for washing. I cleaned all the cobwebs, dusted the chairs and electric appliances. You know now, I just cleaned everywhere. I rushed to Emeka’s shop for a nice air freshner (only God knows the last time I used one, lol)
.
When I got back from Emeka’s shop, I saw Grace’s missed calls on my phone,and a text message which reads: “Don’t bother to call back. I just wanna warn you that I don’t like seeing people around when I go a visiting. I hope you’ll understand. Bye.” .
Jisos! My heart raced faster again. Do I understand? Nne, I don’t only understand you, in fact, I upperstand* you sef. Immediately I called all my friends who loved coming to my house for PS3 Video Game that, “Guys, I won’t be around on Wednesday until very late into the night. I’ll call you when I’m back.” Tho’ they felt a little disappointed, they realised that was very unusual of me. So they agreed. Whatever appointment it is I have I placed on hold
