ROMOKE'S DIARY CHAPTER 20

Chapter 20 Vanessa is in the hospital, badly injured and unconscious. Tobi's arrival prevented me from stabbing her to death. She told her parents not to press charges, she said it was an accident. They're taking her to the U.S. when she's fully recovered. She's going to Rehab there, to help her get over the drugs and substances she uses. I told my parents it was an accident too, so they wouldn’t press charges. Vanessa and I knew we would both go to jail if the case gets to court so we preferred to lie to everyone. Sewa was the only one who knew the real reason behind our not going to court. She has agreed to keep my secret and not tell anyone. Tobi has broken off our engagement. 'I cant believe you tried to murder your fellow girl, Romoke. Besides, I already told you to cut all ties with her and avoid her, you didn’t listen to me. I'm so disappointed in you." he said. I knelt and begged him with tears streaming down my face. "I swear Tobi I avoided ...

ROMOKE'S DIARY CHAPTER 19

Chapter 19 I opened my mouth to scream but she grabbed me and put her free hand over my mouth. She pushed me roughly onto the bed. "Vanessa please don’t kill me. Okay? Please I'll do whatever you want, I promise. Just please, put down the knife." I begged. She gave a short laugh. "Romoke my love. You don’t want to die, do you? Yet you don’t care if I die or not. You had the guts to ask your baby sister to threaten me over the phone. Do you think I backed off because of her threats? Both of you are so stupid! And you must think I'm stupid like ya'll, don’t you?" She laughed and sat on the bed, facing me. "Please Vanessa I'm sorry you know I never meant any harm. Sewa was just bluffing and you know it. Please don’t hurt me." I cried. She came closer and traced a finger on my cheek. "Awwww cry baby. I love you very much and you know this. That's why you took me for granted. I was ready to do anything for you, Romoke, but you fucked i...

ROMOKE'S DIARY CHAPTER 18

Chapter 18 "I knew it. I knew you and Vanessa were lesbians. The love was more than normal." Sewa said to me few minutes after Vanessa left. I was stupefied. I stared at her blankly. "Err what do you mean? What are you talking about?" I stammered. "Oh stop it with the pretence. I heard you guys conversation and I heard your sounds when you were at it. You both are so disgusting." She spat. I couldn’t say anything. I just stared at nothing in particular. "I don’t understand how you can still be doing Vanessa when you already have a great guy that thinks the world of you. Do you know how many girls would kill just to have a man like Tobi all to themselves? Oh! You're so irritating." Sewa said angrily. "Oh shut up! Do you think I don’t know all that? Yes Vanessa and I used to be together but I already told her I'm not interested anymore because I'm getting married, but she's a freaking psycho!!!!!! She wouldn’t listen to me. T...

ROMOKE'S DIARY CHAPTER 17

Chapter 17 "I appreciate your telling me all this, Romoke. I understand that its all in the past. We all have some ugly things we've done in the past, but we need to let go and move on. It doesn’t change how I feel about you. When I said I love you, I meant it and I'll love you forever, no matter how many bad things you've done before we met, alright?" He said, holding my hands. My eyes filled with tears. Oh God. What did I ever do to deserve this kind of loving man in my life? He's all I ever wanted and more. I kissed him on the lips. "Thank you so much darling. I was so scared I was gonna lose you, that’s why I didn’t tell you before now. I'm sorry my king please forgive me." I cried. "Hey its okay baby. I forgive you. At least you've told me now, so we're good. I just hope you’ve cut contact with the Vanessa girl. I don’t want you having anything to do with her." He said as he dried my tears. "Yes boo I wont see her an...

ROMOKE'S DIARY CHAPTER 16

Chapter 16 Happiness is not enough to describe how I feel right now. I just finished writing my last paper and we were signing out when I saw Tobi approaching the department. He looked really handsome, dressed in a tee-shirt and jeans. I had no clue he was coming and I didn’t understand why he came to my department. He came to me and we hugged. "hey you didn’t tell me you were coming here. How did you even find me sef?" I asked him. "Never mind about that. You know I love surprising you. Congratulations baby girl. I'm so proud of you." he said. "Awwww thanks darling." He let go of me and went down on one knee. I just looked on in surprise. My classmates were all staring by now. "you're the most amazing woman I ever met. I couldn’t have asked for a better partner. Will you come into my life and complete me forever? Will you marry me Romoke?" He said, holding out a diamond ring in its case. Omg. I was shocked beyond words. My hand went to...

ROMOKE'S DIARY CHAPTER 15

Chapter 15 Vanessa wont talk to me. Its been three weeks now. She deleted all our pictures off her social media, deleted me from her BBM, and blocked me on Whatsapp. I've dialed her number more than a million times, I think maybe she blocked my number too. What in the world is wrong with this girl? How hard can it be to forget everything and move on? I don’t know what to do. I'm just confused. My phone rang. Its Tobi, my boyfriend. I pick it up. "Hi babe." I said. "Hello gorgeous, where you at? I'm in front of your hostel. You busy or what?" he asked. "Oh. You and your surprise visits. Okay just chill I'll be downstairs in a few." I said as I got dressed. "Hey baby" I said as I got into Tobi's car. "Love of my life, how are you?" He asked me as we hugged and kissed. "I'm alright, just tryna read up that's all. You know my exams start next Monday." "Yes sure, I know that. All the best, darli...

ROMOKE'S DIARY CHAPTER 14

Chapter 14 Tobi was exactly my type of man. Tall, dark skinned, with a great sense of humor. We connected instantly. He and Cole are family friends but he schooled in the U.S. He's been away for 6years and he got his Masters Degree there too. His parents forced him to come home so he can settle down and find a wife. We got talking and we seem to have a lot of things in common. He's a totally great guy. "You're so lucky Romoke! I envy you. I just pray everything works out well because you guys are a perfect match."Sewa said as we were in my room one night. "Chill now. Its just been 2weeks we met. I'm not rushing anything abeg. Besides he hasn’t officially asked me out so we're just friends for now. But the guy is hot, no doubt." I said with a wink. "Yes I know. But very soon you guys would start dating and then marriage would follow." She said. "Nawa oh. Wedding planner. Are you tired of seeing me or what? I don’t even think I...

ROMOKE'S DIARY CHAPTER 13

Chapter 13 Its been more than a year now. I'm starting my final exams in a few months. We've finished shooting the first season of my TV series and its showing from next month. I'm now among the biggest girls in my class and department. I realized that ever since I met Vanessa, most of all these 'slay queens' started trying to talk to me and be my friend. I now own a lot of expensive hair, wigs, shoes and bags, all courtesy of Vanessa. Her parents have relocated to the states and her mom sends clothes and other stuff to us almost all the time. She's going to join them when she's done with NYSC. Vanessa is serving in Ibadan, but we see each other almost every weekend. Sometimes she drives down to Lagos to pick me and we go to Ibadan together for the weekend. Other times, we spend time at her parents' house in Ikoyi. "Romoke are you sure you guys are not lesbians? I'm suspecting both of you. You guys spend too much time together and its beginnin...

ROMOKE'S DIARY CHAPTER 12

Chapter 12 "Romoke come, who is your boyfriend?" My brother, Jibade asked me as we ate in Salado, one of the restaurants in school. I looked at him. He was more handsome now, although darker in complexion. He looked like one of those abokis. "I don’t have a boyfriend. Do you have one for me?" I asked him. "Are you kidding? You're single? I don’t believe that. Look at you now, you've changed a whole lot. You've even upgraded to an iPhone7. you look happy. Its only a man that can be behind all this, so stop lying." he said cheerfully and I laughed. "Abeg make I hear word, guy. I'm single I don’t have a boyfriend. My female friend got me the iPhone for my birthday 2weeks ago, so I don’t know what you're talking about." I said. "Haba! Female friend? For real? Tell me more. Is she Buhari's daughter? Wey she dey dash person iPhone7 for birthday. She go fit buy car for her boyfriend be that. Come, link me up with this your...

ROMOKE'S DIARY CHAPTER 11

Chapter 11 "It was nice meeting you, Vanessa. You're an amazing person. Thanks for making my weekend exciting." Sewa said to Vanessa as we pulled up in front of Madam Tinubu Hall. "Its nothing dear. We'll get to hang out a lot, so don’t bother thanking me. We're friends now, alright? I should even be thanking you guys for freeing me from boredom. At least, now I've got company" Vanessa replied her. "Hmmmm okay then. Please don’t forget my modeling I told you about. I really want to start ASAP." Sewa said. "Sure I wont forget. I'll start working on it and I'll get back to you, okay?" "Okay thanks. See ya! Bye Romoke I'll come to your hostel tonight." Sewa said as she got out of the car and went into her hostel. "Look at this girl o. My mom would kill her, she sef she knows she's just deceiving herself. They would never allow her to model." I told Vanessa as she reversed the car and made for my ...

ROMOKE'S DIARY CHAPTER 10

Chapter 10 "Where did you meet this big girl from? See how massive their house is. See her car. I'm sure she's not 25 yet. Wow" Sewa asked me in an excited manner as we waited for Vanessa to bring us ice-cream. "She's one of the actresses in my TV series." I replied her in a bored tone. "Mehn! Her father must be very rich. Look at her hair. She should just dash me the wig. It looks pretty expensive." Sewa continued blabbing. "Why don’t you go and remove it from her head now, ode. You cannot just shut up for once. Look at the hair on your own head. Didn’t Cole give you 30k to buy it? You're still looking at someone else's wig nawa for you. Abeg I don tire for your matter, only God can help you" I said as I glared at her. "Haba Romoke, calm down now. I was just admiring the hair, wetin happen? Besides this one on my head dey learn for where that her hair dey. Cant you see the difference? Don’t you know expensive hair when...

ROMOKE'S DIARY CHAPTER 9

Chapter 9 I woke up the next morning with a bad headache. I sat up and put my head in my hands. I saw a naked Vanessa sleeping peacefully beside me. Oh wait!!! I'm also naked. Omg! What happened last night? Did I dream all that stuff? I kissed a girl and sucked boobs. I'm a lesbian. Oh my God. What have I done? Just then, Vanessa stirred and opened her eyes. "Hey sugar, you're up. What's wrong? Do you have a headache?" She asked as she sat up and touched my forehead. "Fuck you're burning up. I'll go check for some painkillers." She got out of bed and put on a T-Shirt. "I'm fine Vanessa I'm just hung-over that's all." I said to her. "I know you'd be fine, but you have to use something. Maybe Caro could bring us breakfast in bed. Chill okay, I'll be right back" She said as she went out of the room. I stared at her as she left. Vanessa is a lesbian, and I was her partner just a few hours ago. I've ne...

ROMOKE'S DIARY CHAPTER 8

Chapter 8 I could hear soft Bryson Tiller music playing. Someone was in the bathroom as the sounds of running water filtered in my ears. I feel like I'm in a dream. I don’t know if I'm awake or not. So this is how weed makes one feel. Wow. I heard footsteps in the room and I opened my eyes with difficulty. I looked around the room. It all feels like a dream as my mind isn't registering some things. Vanessa was in front of her dressing mirror, a towel wrapped around her body. She was applying one of her facial creams. She glanced at me. "Are you awake or you're sleeping with your eyes open?" She asked me. I tried to say something but nothing came out of my mouth. Vanessa laughed softly. "Oh my God, you're so gone. Look at how red your eyes are. How would you now look like when you smoke weed proper? You're such a learner" She said as she came towards me. Her towel dropped on the floor, bringing her naked body to full view. My eyes went to he...

ROMOKE'S DIARY CHAPTER 7

Chapter 7 "Hi Romoke" It was Vanessa calling me later that week. "Hi Vanessa. How are you?" I replied cheerfully. "I'm alright. I wanted to know if you'd like to go clubbing with me this Friday?" She said. "Oh really? Errrrr okay sure I'd love to. Who's taking us?" I asked her. "Who's taking us how? We are taking each other. Just both of us." She answered laughing. "Ah!! Okay that's alright. I forgot you're a big girl" I teased her. "Oh please! What time do you finish classes on Friday, so I'd come pick you up?" "I usually don’t have classes on Fridays, its just rehearsals from 10am till like 1pm and I'm done." I told her. "Okay that's great! I'll pick you up by 2.30pm, pack clothes for the weekend" She said as she hung up. Hmmmm. Cash madam. She can afford to take herself clubbing and buy drinks obviously. Its good to have money, I thought to myself a...

ROMOKE'S DIARY CHAPTER 6

Chapter 6 Back to school finally! Seriously I think the stress of school is a contributing factor to my being small. What with going for classes, running around for assignments, the never ending rehearsals. All these things sef wont let a girl increase in size or height lol. Sewa has resumed too, she's in Madam Tinubu Hall, ahile I'm in Amina Hall but I try to check on her as much as possible to know if she's doing okay. She's dating Cole now, and they seem pretty good for each other. They've been togther for like 2 months and Cole posted her picture yesterday on IG with the caption 'I wanna start my forever with you.' Hmmmmm how cute. I advised her not to get too lovey yet tho because its still early. "I'm not gonna post him on my own page yet sef I was surprised when I saw that he posted my picture. We're still in our baby stage. When I'm sure we're exclusive, then I can go ahead. I wanna tell him to take down the picture sef but I d...

ROMOKE'S DIARY CHAPTER 5

Chapter 5 I woke up with a start. 'Oh! I slept off. What time is it?' I check my phone. Its past 11. Why is this girl not back yet? I dial her number. She doesn’t pick her phone. This girl is just sick. Okay I have the guy's number she sent to me let me check for it. I dialed it. 'Hello' I hear a deep voice. 'Hi good evening this is Romoke, I'm Sewa's sister.' "Oh hey there Romoke, yeah Sewa is with me. We were just about leaving." His voice was wow. "Ok please I'd like to speak with her' 'Okay just hold on a moment' he said. I hear faint talk in the background. "Hi Sister." Sewa said. "Sewa are you okay at all? Why didn’t you pick my calls? Do you know how worried I've been? What exactly is your problem?" I was literally shouting. "Chill sis, my phone is in my purse I had no idea it was ringing. Emabinu egbon mi" She laughed. "You're sick apparently. Get back to this house i...

Sewa dropped her phone and looked at me "Please let me borrow the dress now big sis, I'll return it I promise." "Sewa we need to talk right now" I said as I sat beside her on her bed. "I'm so disappointed in you. You don't need all these things you're doing, its too early. You're too young to be having sex or following guys. You need to focus, because for real I don't understand why you….." "Oh my God okay okay I've heard you but please I have to go see this guy at least? Please I'll be careful I promise I'll drop his number with you so you can call in case anything happens. Please sister" She made a face and put her arms around my neck hugging me tight. This girl!!!

Please you don't need it for now, you just have to…." Sewa raised her arms in the air "Oh my God bla bla bla not tonight " She stood up from my bed and walked over to my wardrobe. She started scattering my clothes looking for what to wear. I stared at her back view and realized she was way too hot for her age. Perfect figure: slim waist, rounded hips, long legs…… No wonder all these guys are on her case. I sighed. "Yasssssssssss!!!!! This is the perfect dress for tonight. Cole is gonna die when he sees me in this" Sewa exclaimed. She was holding a short black dress I got last month. "No way S...

ROMOKE'S DIARY CHAPTER 2

CHAPTER 2 "Hey sis" Oh no! Here comes my annoying sister. Sewa walks into my room, wearing one of my T-shirts and a black bum shorts. She looked so beautiful even without makeup, her long legs were in full view all thanks to the bum shorts. I felt a quick pang of envy. Why wasn't I this tall and fine? Damn. "Romoke I need something to wear I'm going on a date with this guy on IG. I mean he just slid into my dm like 2weeks ago and we've been talking every other day. So he wants to meet and chill, that sort of thing. We're just gonna have dinner that's all" I stared at her. "WHAT?!!!!!!!" I exclaimed. "Since when did you start going on dates?" I asked her, with my mouth agape. "Oh come on big sister, I'm 17 remember? Almost 18? In a couple of months? Oh don't be so rigid you're acting like Mom. Besides Mom isn't around to shout and stop me from going. As you well know, Dad and Mom travelled this morning so...
