DIARY OF AN ADDICT - Episode 89

.
Me: No ooo. I don’t think I can do that sir
.
Oga: I am just kidding anyways. I wish you the best. Be fast about it and get back to work. We miss you here
.
Me: I’ll sir. Thank you sir
.
Oga: You’re welcome. Bye
.
Call ends
.
I felt important and proud of myself when my boss said, “we miss you here.” Nothing can be so fulfilling than knowing that you’re seen and regarded as an important personality where you work. That utterance meant so much to me. Inside of me, I decided to put in more effort once I resume work. That’s the only way to pay back the love, support and prayers I received, especially from my boss
.
6pm. I began counting down to the moment. I called Ini’s number but she didn’t answer it; probably her madam was with her. I sent her a text message instead
.
“This day is the second most important in my life. I can’t wait my angel. You’re welcome to my world.”
.
She replied my message with such a romantic touch that can make one dance Unclad from Apapa to Oshodi. You know that kind of feeling now;
.
“The queen comes to her king tonight. Handle me gently for I am delicate. I am all yours.”
.
I read that message like 500 times: I read it loud and soft, high and low. I was mad that evening. I didn’t know when I started singing ‘Yori Yori.’
.
Cynthia almost spoiled my mood with her call
.
Cynthia: Hello Femi. I was told you called me earlier. Sorry, my phone has been off since yesterday. I came here to charge it
.
Me: Yea, that girl told me. So how are you?
.
Cynthia: I am fine o. Ah Femi, I wish you were here with me
.
Me: Ha? What’s going on?
.
Cynthia: I am too lonely here. All my friends have got themselves guys to roll with. Na only come dey solo
