TIDES OF LUST (Episode 10)

 

Spending the weekend with Sandra, was an unforgettable experience. our time together, exceeded my expectations.

Was it the mind blowing coitus between us, her cooking skills, her jovial personality etc. The whole experience was just too good to be true. 

For a fleeting day and a few precious hours, Sandra and I immersed ourselves in a tender preview of life as a new couple. 

As we shared meals together, I observed that her tastes lean toward nutritious and whole foods, avoiding processed options in favor of a more mindful approach to eating.

Sandra's kitchen creations are a testament to her love and devotion, just as her tender touch ignites a flame that never fades.

On Sunday evening, we drove down to her apartment for her to pick the cloth she would wear to school on Monday as she insisted on going to school from my house. 

Sandra's wealth and privilege haven't changed her genuine, down to earth nature. She remained humble, kind, and unpretentious, with a heart full of love and compassion.

She is clean in and out and also very homely.

When we got to her apartment, I was amazed with how captivating it was. Her apartment was nicely arranged, with every properties and furniture's, kept in the right place. 

Being my first time in her apartment, she offered me a drink and to my surprise, she served me alcoholic energy drink. 

She offered me Blue and Black bullet, and she eventually joined me to drink, her's was medium stout. 

One thing led to another, and we had one round of hot steamy love making right on her bed, before we departed to my lodge. 

Sandra booked a cab through her phone, and within ten minutes, the cab arrived her residence to pick us.

The cab dropped us at the school, and then we started strolling to my lodge, holding each others hands.

At that point in time, I felt on top of the world, just chilling alone with Sandra, not until something very drastic happened.

As we walked pass Charlotte's hostel, something caught my attention. I thought I was day dreaming, seeing the sight before me. 

I quickly pulled out my phone from my pocket, and I began dialling Charlotte's number. It rang, but she didn’t pick. 

I unapologetically excused myself from Sandra, telling her to stroll on, giving an excuse that I needed to make a call and will catch up with her soon.

Sandra reluctantly accepted my excuse, and she strolled away.

After I was sure Sandra had took a long distance away from me, I dialled Charlotte for the second time and she still ignored the call.

I became extremely pissed off, then it occurred to me that Charlotte was intentionally not picking my calls, because she was looking at the screen of her phone each time I called.

To say that I was angry, was an understatement. I also felt heartbroken. If they were just talking I wouldn’t have felt that bad. 

Seeing Charlotte peck the guy beside her, was what compounded my misery. 

And as she walked down to her hostel with her big hand bag, I needed no soothsayer to confirm my worries.

She had been with another guy since all this while, the reason her line weren't going through.

“Anyways, there's no need shedding tears over spilled milk. E don bad, be say e don bad”........I thought, and I shrugged.

I pulled myself together, and I rushed down to catch up with Sandra, before another useless boy go begin approach her.

I can't afford to loose two fishes at the same time, not possible.

“Are you ok?”.......she asked as I got close to her.

“Yea am fine, do I look like I'm not ok?”.........I asked nervously.

“Yea, your countenance says something else.....Is it about the phone call?”........she asked, staring at me intently.

“No, no, its nothing......I'm fine”........I replied, and quickly changed the topic away from me.

Even though I tried forcing myself to have a conversation with Sandra,   she was sensitive enough to notice something wasn't right with me.

All through our journey as we strolled to my lodge, Sandra was the only one talking, While I became lost in thought.

Seeing Charlotte pecking another guy earlier, had successfully ruined my happy moment.

I was thinking it was something I could easily move on from, but here I was, being aggrieved.

When we finally got to my apartment, Sandra instantly dashed into the kitchen to do whatever she wants to do.

She came out twenty minutes later, with a plate of fried noodles and egg, which was well garnished  with different veggies.

The aroma from the he food was very pleasant, but surprisingly i wasn't hungry, I couldn't find my appetite.

Sandra dropped the plate of food on the table, and then went to the fridge to get two sachet water Which she dropped on  the table, and then she sat close to me on the bed.

“pascal”.......she called, tapping me gently on my shoulders. I turned towards her, just staring blankly.

“Food is ready, let's eat”.......she muttered gently.

“I am not hungry.....go ahead and eat alone”........I said coldly.

“You've been like this since after making that phone call.......You have been moody and a little absent minded.......whats going on Pascal?”.........She asked worriedly.

“What do you mean?”.......I asked, pretending I don't know what she is talking about.

“Dont even try to act dumb with me......oh, you think I don't know?”........she retorted.

“Know what?”........I asked, staring at her in shock.

“Ever since you saw your crush with another guy this evening.......you suddenly became moody, and I can swéar with my life, that she was the one you were constantly calling”........she said sarcastically.

 

I stared at Sandra in disbelief, I wasn't expecting her outburst, and I began to wonder how she found out.

“its not what you think Sandra, I was only thinking about some impending bills”........I lied.

“Nice try though, but your lie actually stinks.......What is even your problem? is she your girlfriend? For all I know, you have not even asked her out yet and you are being like this. What will happen when you guys start dating and you see her with another guy?”.........she snapped.

I became instantly tongue tied, i didn’t have any defense to put up so I decided to apologize.

“Am sorry Sandy, it wasn't intentional”.......I pleaded.

“Well, you don’t have to apologize to me, you have to apologize to yourself for allowing someone you ain’t even dating yet, to affect your life this way”.........she retorted.

There is this feeling when a very beautiful lady is angry with you and voicing it out. Not because you have hurt her but because she cares about you.

In that moment, you tend to be more attracted to her. You see her exceptional beauty and you start feeling fly and lucky. 

Yeah, that was the exact feeling I had for Sandra at that moment.

After voicing out her anger, she went to the fridge and brought out the bottle of Mc Dowels. 

She poured a good amount of quantity into a cup and handed it over to me.

“This will make you feel better”.......she muttered, putting the bottle back into the fridge.

With one big gulp I downed the whole content of the cup and handed it back to her, squeezing my face tightly.

She left with the cup to the kitchen and latter to the bathroom, to have her bath.

While Sandra was having her bath, my stomach rumbled, and I became hungry. Without wasting time, I started eating the fried noodles and egg Sandra kept on the table.

I finished eating the meal in less than five minutes,. Then I laid on the bed, staring into space.

After Sandra finished having her bath, she came into the room, and began her skin care routine.

When she was done, she joined me in the bed. We weren’t in the mood for any love making, as she just snuggled into me with me cuddling her as she slept off. 

While Sandra slept and snored away, I remained awake thinking about Charlotte. Although the night, she never left my mind.
