Monday evening, no Lovingtime. Tuesday evening, no Maryjane to bribe to call Lovingtime. Wednesday evening no Lovingtime. Thursday evening no Lovingtime.
Friday afternoon, he was coming back from work and decided to pass through them Lovingtime side. They had closed from work early because saturday was election. As he was passing by the front of the house, he saw a woman, Lovingtime's mum about to go inside, and ran down to her.
Excuse me Ma, is Lovingtime at home? He asked. Who are you? She asked after staring at him from head to toe. I am Lovingtime's teacher in school. He said. Lovingtime is not in school. Lie detected by the mum. When i say school ma, i mean the JAMB lesson she attended, i am her teacher there. I want to put her through some things concerning the upcoming post u.m.e. Ofego corrected. Oh, she said, i am sorry but Lovingtime didn't take JAMB. You are actually looking for Maryjane not Lovingtime and it seems the names are confusing you cause Lovingtime used to accompany Maryjane to her JAMB lectures. Yes, ma! Ofego said amidst fear. She continued, Well, Maryjane is not at home. Since Lovingtime used to accompany Maryjane to her Jamb Lectures, she might know you, so, i'll call her so you can drop your message for Maryjane with her. Okay ma, thank you ma! Ofego said.
As she was about to walk in, she asked, By the way, what is your name? Ofego! He said. Ofego! Nice name. From where? She asked. Delta state! He replied. You look too handsome and younger to be just a teacher to my daughter. She said and walked in.
Wow! Ofego said to himself. She almost found me out. Thank God she didn't. Let her call her for me let me beg my love back jor. It seems this their mother is already liking me sef o. This one that she is saying i look too handsome and younger to be just a teacher to her daughter. Anyway, let her call her for me let me settle this matter once and for all before frog starts jumping.
You again? Lovingtime came out of the gate and asked. Yes, it's me again o. Ofego said. Get out of my father's house now! She ordered. I am not in your father's house na. Ofego said. I am on the road. Please, Lovingtime, for God sake let us stop all this childish behaviour, it wouldn't take us anywhere. I am here to plead with you to forgive me and accept me back. I am a changed man now. I apologise for all the wrongs that i did you. This past days i have not been able to sleep well. It is not that i don't sleep o. I sleep, but not well. I sleep only in the day time. When i want to sleep in the night i will just be seeing your face. Lovingtime through this i have realised that it is you that i love. The other day i was just joking about your sister Maryjane, i didn't mean it. Please, forgive me, and come back, i need you.
Come back to your house? Was i living with you before? Lovingtime asked. No, not come back to my house. Ofego said. Come back to my heart. Without you, it is empty, please, come back. Ofego said crying crocodile tears mix with village dog tears.
She was moved and helped him to wipe off the tears which he made out by rubbing rob on his face when she was not looking.
I forgive you! She said. And i love you! It's just that the way you do things turns me off. I pray you have really changed for good.
I have changed. Ofego said. All those things that i did wouldn't repeat themselves again unless i repeat them which i know i wouldn't as you've taken me back so.
Ofego, just as you haven't been able to concentrate this past days, likewise me too. I have been standing here every morning waiting for you to come and beg like you do whenever you wronged me since we started this relationship. Come here! She said. As he came and she hugged him. So where are you taking me to for our make up date? She asked after kissing him on his lips. It is a surprise! He said. Tomorrow, saturday morning, 10am. Okay, if you say so. Who i'm i to object. You are the head and i'm the tail. Your word is my bond. She said.
The next day which was saturday, Ofego took Lovingtime on the make up date to an election ground and said, This is the best place for a make up date, only if you have your PVC with you, like i do.
Lovingtime hissed and landed him a slap, and he collaspsed.
