I was busy with the maiden Ghana steemit meetup event hence the undue break from the series but thank God everything was a success for the Ghanaian community.
Recap from the last episode:
...After all the hustles I went through I was able to master courage and proposed to a lady for the first time and I was now waiting for a reply whiles in school...
Episode 08 begins.....
If you recall from previous episode, I said she was not exactly my taste and I was only trying myself for the real deal, right?
Well, here I was on campus, I could not concentrate in class. I was distracted and I could not even learn for exam. Why was I overwhelmed waiting her reply if indeed she wasn't my taste in the first place?
I could not just bring myself to terms with this, what was happening to me? I could not even eat well. Even at nights no matter how tired I was from the daily hustles I was mostly like;
It was now 3 weeks after I proposed to her and I was yet to have a word with her. You remember my school had a lot of restrictions and even though I managed to sneak in a phone I was not able to contact her. I was going to wait for a week more until I could have my answer. The weight of this wait was just becoming too much. Jumping the school wall to go check her out started coming to mind, but really? I could be sacked from my school for that and what would I tell my parents?
Or I should just be like;
Thanks to my fears, I managed to beat the urge. I read books on how to stay strong and in control. I don't know if you can imagine how it was like for me, I was always like;
Frankly at this time, every day seemed like another year. everyone close to me could tell that something was wrong somewhere but I didn't share the story. Finally it was time to leave campus. As my colleagues were excited about getting food to refill their chop boxes I was filled with another kind of excitement. I was going to have my answer. I think I used about 3 days to iron my white shirt and trousers in preparation for that outing and even on the D-day I was like;
As soon as I got home, I plugged in my dead phone and switched it on immediately. It was as if I was a jonkey who had missed cock for a year. I dialed her number as soon as my keypads allowed me. puuuun puuun puuuun it ranged and ended with no answer. I dialed again almost immediately and had the same results. "I am sure she is bathing or doing something engaging" I rationalized to myself. That was the only way I could handle the situation. I was pacing all over my room because I did not want to even sit and crumple my shirt in the least bit. Later my brother came in and realized I was too restless and he wanted to know why. I was like, "ohh everything is cool ooh challeh" meanwhile I was like;
After half an hour she still didn't return my call. Now I had to spam her with calls haha. I collected my brother's phone and dialed and she did not answer that too. This gave me more vim because it only meant she was busy and not what I was beginning to assume. After all, why would she avoid me?
All this while I had not taken breakfast and that was 11 o'clock a.m so I decided to eat something but my nervousness could not stop, I didn't want her to call back and I wont be ready to meet her. So I ate the food like:
After gulping down the food I kept waiting and dialed her again after a couple of hours and that was about 1:00 pm and she still did not answer. We were to return to school at exactly 4:00 pm and a minute after that would mean you did not return and the punishment was grave. Meanwhile I also had other stuff to take care of before returning to campus. Now this girl was wasting away my entire day and there was nothing I could do about it. Come on! I dialed her again and this time I had a reply of a sought. "I will call you back later" text appeared on my phone. I didn't even know how to feel at this moment haha. I was like;
After another hour of struggling to bring myself to believe the hard truth that she was not interested in me after all, I decided to get down town to get a few stuff for school. At exactly 3:30 pm when it was about 30 minutes to roll call on campus and I was busy preparing to run back and face my disappointments my phone ranged. Who was that? It was her, like seriously? I felt like I should not answer the call and see if she would call back.
Really? what if she never calls back? Though I didn't want to answer the call I was like;
What excuse was she going to give me now? I was 30 minutes away from real trouble, what did I do?
After a whole day of pain, what am I to do? what did we discuss on the phone?
Let's find out in the next episode of this series. Thanks for reading.
