Chapter 76

He brought out a piece of rolled bunt

Me: Tell me how many people you have killed.

Jafar : ki na son ki ji?

Me: yay! I like the way you speak hausa..

I was tipsy already..

Me: but what does that mean?

Jafar: it means "do you want to hear"?

Me: yes

Jafar: Babu..

Me: yay…"babu" means no!..i know that one..

Jafar laughed..

Jafar : you are correct..

Me : so will you tell me?

Jafar: No, a gentleman does not say those things to a lady

Me: you get sweet mouth o…chai..

Jafar : it's time for you to sleep

Me : what if I don't want to go tomorrow, and I want to stay here instead?

Jafar: I wouldn't allow you..

Me : you will carry me out?

Jafar: wouldn't need to do that, you are a lady..

Me: hehehehe, I won't be a lady tomorrow..

I prayed God gave me the strength to control myself whenever I was high, but he didn't

Jafar: you are more fun than I thought..

Me: so you mean to say you thought I was boring?

Jafar: not that..i just thought you would be uptight like the average daddy's girl.

Me : so you are calling me a daddy's girl?…goodnight young man!

Jafar: goodnight dear, you can sleep on the bed, I will crash here..

Me: you better join me on the bed..

I realized I sounded like a mad woman, he was enjoying himself…he was laughing..

Me : rotten boy, I didn't mean it like that jor, I meant you should not sleep on the floor because of me..

Jafar : I know, its fun watching you talk lie this. I think you have been sad for a while. The wine is releasing you..

He blew out a cloud of weed, the AC converted it to a mist..

Me: I want to smoke too..

Jafar : not tonight..

Me: what if we don't see tomorrow?

He was quiet for a while, I realized I had said another stupid thing..

Me: I didn't mean it like that. I would just shut up and sleep..

Jafar: okay dear..

Me: you wouldn't beg me to talk?

Jafar: not this night ma..

I climbed his bed , wen t to the edge of the left hand side and covered myself with the blanket..

He sat on the right hand side for a while, before he lay down too. There was a gulf between us.

My phone rand, I wasn't scared, even if it was Eli, I had Jafar by my side. It was Toun.

Toun: I am home, how are you?

Me: I am fine, I am so happy you home..

Toun: thank you dear, are you in Jafar's house or Timi's?

Me: I am with Jafar..

Toun: Tana, you don't love Timi anymore, you are crazy about Jafar….dont waste time and let him know. Look at me, I didn't know I had limited time with Abayomi, I was fooling around with Naetochukwu…

Me : babe, I think you should rest…how about we talk tomorrow?

Toun : I love you Tee..thanks for everything…greet Jafar for me..

Me: love you too dear..goodnight..

Jafar was quiet at the other side of the bed, he had extinguished the blunt.

Me: Toun send's her regards..she is home

Jafar : Ok…

He kept quiet again..i wasn't ready to sleep yet..

Me: Oya! Lets just say one more word to each other before we sleep…I will start…"goodnight Jafar, and thank you"

Jafar: sha baki na

I didn't know what he meant again, I didn't care, I just loved the way he spoke hausa…I rolled to his side of the bed, held his face between my palms and kissed him...
