Fausat the fish seller episode 5

Fausat the fish seller. Final episode
Two days later, early in the morning, seyi’s knock on the door woke me up. I opened the door and she came in. She said since I wanted a break up, well she will let me be but only in one condition. She asked if I remembered the first day she agreed to date me, how I carried her on my arms from the gate into my room. She said I should be carrying her like that from her room to the gate every morning when she’s ready to go to school, for 7days. With that, I was free to go with fausat. I thought about her condition, if I refuse, she won’t do me anything but, I felt like accepting it. I want to do it for her, for the sake of the love we had shared in the past. I accepted, she left my room immediately. I went and took my bath, took my breakfast and left for school.
I was in school when fausat called me, she asked me where I was, I told her I was at the ATM stand, close to Library in school. She said she was coming to meet me there. 5 minutes later, behold gorgeous, beautiful fausat walking towards me. All eyes were on us as she hugged me so tightly. She wore a black jean trouser with a pink beautiful short sleeve top. She has this fine face and a beautiful body. After withdrawing, both of us left for tantiz to take our launch. As we were going, all eyes were on us. The way she was walking and smiling with me, that sweet confidence she oozes; people were just looking at us. As we got to motion ground heading to tantiz, we saw seyi seated ontop of the block seat students normally seat on. She was stirring at us as we walked by. I felt pity for her; fausat saw her and laughed in a mocking tone. She was so gentle and cool as she seated.
The next morning was Tuesday, I already knew that seyi had a class by 8am. She had already finished preparing, she stood at the entrance of the flat, it seems she was already waiting for me. I had earlier accepted her conditions and that day was the day I would start. It was about 6:47am. As I saw her, “good morning” she greeted me, “how was your night” I asked, she didn’t even bother to answer that; “waiting for you” she said. I stretched out my right hand towards her shoulder area and the other to her kneel. I carried her. As I carried her out of the flat, heading to gate, my neighbors who were outside saw us and began to laugh, hailing us, “love nwantiti” one of the elderly man there said, only if they knew that that the love has gone sour, and that all was not well with us. I dropped her outside the gate and came in,side while she left for school.
I repeated the second day, third, fourth and, on the fifth day was a Saturday, I didn’t know where she was going that morning, but she was all dressed up as at 8am, I was washing my cloths outside when she came to tell me that she was ready. I greeted her, she didn’t even answer me. She turned her back and left after telling me she was ready. I rinsed my hands and followed her. I know she was pained, she has the right to be because I have disappointed her, I failed her when I left her, I allowed my friends to mock her because I was cheating on her. As I carried her, I noticed she had lost some weight, she was so lite on my hands. She must have been thinking and worrying so much that she doesn’t even know that she was losing weight.
The 6th day was a Sunday, I carried her to the gate. When one of my neighbor’s 6 year old daughter saw us, she started laughing and said, “uncle is carrying aunty seyi” I smiled when she said it.
The final day was a Monday, it was a public holiday. I just woke up, as I was browsing on my phone, a text came in, it read “am ready,” it was from seyi. I checked the time and it was 7:15am, I didn’t know where she was going. I stood up, I went outside my room and saw her at her door, she wore a very beautiful gown. I could remember, I accompanied her to the place she went to buy it. The gown was sleeveless with beautiful flowering stripes and designs. The first time we went out together as lovers, that was what she wore and all eyes were on us that day as we walk down the streets of somorine. “You are looking gorgeous” I said to her, “Thank you” she replied. “How was your night” she asked. I was surprised she asked how my night was, because on previous days when I started carrying her, she doesn’t even ask me. This day, I noticed that her countenance changed, she seems to be in a good mood. I told her my night was great. I carried her, she has indeed lost some more weight. As I was taking her to the gate, she was looking into my eyes, our eyes were just gazed at each other. One singular thing on my mind was, “God please let this thing not happen,” Is this the end of the union! Some kind of strange thoughts and imaginations started popping up on my mind. Immediately I dropped her outside the gate, she left. It looked as if I was free, I felt relieved. I realized that the decision I want to take at that moment was right and was the best. I had to rush in,side the house and prepare as fast as possible, do it before I change my mind. I took my bath and off I went to gate. Immediately I got to fausat’s house, I knocked at the door, she asked who was that, I told her it was me, she rushed out immediately as if she was waiting for me. She was going to hug me but I resisted. I flipped her body away, “am sorry, am no longer interested in this relationsh¡p, am going back to seyi,” I said. She laughed, “stop all these nonsense joor,” she said. She asked me to come in,side but I refused. “Are you serious” she asked. “yes I am” I replied. She landed a slap on my right cheek. Well I deserve it, I caused it because I belittled myself, I brought it upon myself when I started double dating. I turned around and I was leaving the place. Fausat was calling me but I never answered. I left the place and left it for good, never to come back there again. I went to a friend’s place to stay, I know fausat must surely come to the house to check on me, so I didn’t go back home.
2 days later, I made up with seyi, the love of my life; together we shall be.
