Henry.
It was Sunday morning and the weather was very cold because it rained previously middle of the night. Henry being in a strict Christian family prepared for church, there is nothing in this world that would make him miss 6 o'clock mass else his mom would be on his neck for the rest of the week.
Even though he couldn't sleep he still had to go, all his head were filled with thoughts about David..."what would he think of me?", exactly what would David think of him, how will he face David tomorrow, how will he face people if David was loud mouth and told everyone, his mom, "OMG please help", after dressing up he went downstairs.
Mom: Henry you are prepared already
Henry:good morning mum, yes I'm ready
Mom: Benny has fever she can't go today and chibuike has to leave for abuja this morning.
Henry: wow so today that I'm actually ready for church no one wants to go hmmmm.
Mom: I'm already prepared let's go stop sulking
Henry:but mum if I was sick you'd still force me to go
Mom: I don't want to offend the Lord by hitting you this morning let's go you are driving.
They went outside and entered the car. remember...I said henry wasn't Rich but he was very comfortable, his family has two cars, one storey building which some parts were rented out for tenants, that's where they also live. His mom owns a poutry business and also supplies rice to people that is why I said comfortable compared to his friends.
You might wonder about his dad, he died when they were still kids he left only the poutry and the mom being a hard working woman expanded it, that was how they could afford schools and other things.
Mom: my dear what is going on with you
Henry:me..no I'm ok nothing is wrong.
Mom: nnam I know you too well you have been Lost in thought since we left the house.
Henry: hmmm mom I want to ask you something please don't be pissed
Mom:ok
Henry: mom...are my free to be friends with people who are attracted to the same sex?
Mom:what!!!!?
Henry: mom relax it's just a movie I watched
Mom: it better be because if I hear anywhere that you are friends with some kind of person hmmmm till then godi.
Henry never mentioned it again,after church everyone went home.
Soma:knock knock knock
Kevin: who the fucking hell is here at this time of the day
Soma: sir it's me, I'm sorry for disturbing my mom asked me to drop coffee for you.
Kevin:come in
Soma: good morning sir I'm sorry
Kevin: it's fine, who is your mom?
Soma: your cook
Kevin: and what's your name
Soma:my name is Soma
Kevin: nice name, I'm sorry I yelled at you I was lost in thought when you knocked.
Soma:it's fine sir
Kevin:I'm Kevin, not sir stop being too formal you are my age or something we can be friends.
Soma: yes sir .. sorry yes Kevin we can be friends.hope what you are thinking is not that deep you can give me some of it let me think for you (smiling)
Kevin: hahahahahaa stop ,I'm actually thinking about me, thinking if I'm actually who I say I am ....or have I being blind
Soma: it's fine I hope you sort it out I need to go now my mom will start yelling at me.
Kevin: alright.
Soma was the daughter of Mrs Anna the house keeper, she is quite beautiful and intelligent, she has full legs and tiny waist, big eyes and full hair, her neck was quite long and has lines in them, she was fair and has a face that is always curious. Kevin lay back in the bed took his phone and called his best friend Ben in New York, they spoke at length about everything, about school about love life about sex about girls about the city and every other thing.
David woke up with a smile on his face, he quickly rushed down and aunty Deb already prepared breakfast,
David:aunty Deb good morning
Aunty Deb: morning my love how are you, you seem happy this morning.
David: I'm quite happy, has my dad called you since?
Aunty Deb:no he hasn't, please sit down let me dish your food.
Henry Henry Henry kept ringing and playing in his head, he kept imagining how he would actually kiss henry l
If he sees him, how he would react,how he would ask him to move out of the country with him, how everything is going to be.
Lillian: ize this one you are here hope everything is fine
Israel: sis what is it nah, I'm just here to visit you, can't I visit my lovely sister again?
Lillian: hmm ize what do you want this time, no I don't have money no you can't use my car no you can't take my dog.
Israel: sis stop why no, I will return her tomorrow I'm lonely at home
Lillian:no.
Israel went to his sister's place to spend Sunday and also steal her dog, he loved his sister so much because she was the only one he has, he wanted to confide in her about Kevin but what exactly was he going to say happened, that will be a story for another day.
Monday: Israel and Kevin arrived at the house, Kevin went in followed by Mr Israel the owner of the apartment, "welcome to my humble abode Kev" he said"quite nice it cool"Kevin replied
Turning to Stare at Israel."what is anything on my face why are you staring at me like that", "nah you have a very beautiful face don't get me wrong I just appreciate good things". Said Kevin smiling, he sat down and Israel offered him drinks they discussed somethings, mr Israel tried to keep everything formal but Kevin wasn't having it.he kept asking uncomfortable questions, about his love life, his level of education why he chose teaching and all that, Kevin later left and Israel breathed down in relief.
He lay down thinking about his love life and realized that he never really had one, he has never looked at a girl somehow before, he was a Virgin, he did not understand why he should be worried about Kevin, Kevin was his student and nothing more but he couldn't stop thinking about his face, voice accent and all, and why would Kevin call him cutie?? Was it a joke? "OohGod!!". His head went back to when they bumped into each other he smiled and suddenly slapped himself, was he attracted to his student oooh no can't be.....he kept thinking and tossing about in his bed.
Kevin lay down as well and was thinking about everything, about how mr Israel kept avoiding his eyes, how he himself couldn't keep his eyes off him, he thought about his love life his last girlfriend broke up with him cause of her friends, what was it with mr Israel, he was pretty yeah he has seen so many pretty people, why is this one different, "at some point I wanted to touch his face", he murmured, nah he can't be crushing or falling for his teacher is he??.
The next day they both woke up early to run, they ran into each other but just waved, school that day was normal as usual, Kevin was beginning to like it. "Hello" someone called out to Kevin, he stopped and turned,"hey my name is Cassandra I'm in your class, I know you have never noticed me but can we be friends?" She said, "sure we can be friends" Kevin replied. "No Kevin, I mean would you be my boyfriend,I'm quite popular in class and I like you", "what....man you are bold, I'm sorry not happening".these kind of things kept happening over and over again until Kevin's next visit to me Israel's apartment.
"Hi Kev what are you doing here" Israel said as he opened the door,,"come in" "I was feeling lonely at home so I came to visit is it bad?" He came in and sat down. Israel went back to what he was doing, he was cooking before Kevin came, after cooking he went to shower and when he came out Kevin was in his bedroom. He stopped at the door as Kevin stared at him .Kevin stood up and walked up to him, he was way taller so Mr Israel was looking up to him, "I don't know what is happening to me Mr Israel" he whisperd as he stared deep into Israel's eyes, "you are doing something to me I don't know what it is but you are doing something to me Israel" Kevin said with a croaked voice..."Israel couldn't say anything he was just staring something in him wanted to grab the boy and kiss him soo bad but he held back.."Kevin it's time to leave " "I can't move from here Israel, tell me who you are and tell me the meaning of what I'm feeling", "what???"
Kevin went closer and touched Israel's jawline.. Israel tried to leave but Kevin pushed him back and kissed him hard he did not stop, he kept going and going Israel kissed him back hard but suddenly stopped and pushed him "are you out of your mind?? Do you know what you are doing please leave just go Kevin go just get the hell out " he shouted.....Kevin left and he sat down in bed shaking...
Exciting right???? Please tell me you can't wait for the next chapter
