HAUNTED LOVE
(HE IS TOO SHY)
BY CHIBUIKE SMART
EPISODE 16
GINA’S POV
I had already arrived Rosemary’s house, in my car, looking really hot, yeah hot! my mirror told me so .
 
I honked and the gate opened automatically as I drove in and packed my car at the parking lot, while over looking the cheering noise made by some teenagers who were in the pool, as they popped up a bottle of champagne, while the foam popped out in torrents flying through the wh0le atmosphere.
 
I picked up my phone and dialled, Christabel’s number to know if she was already in there.
 
And as if she was already anticipating my call she picked up, I could hear noises from the background and I didn’t need a soothsayer to tell me she was already there.
 
“Hi sweetie, where are you?”
She said scre-ming, as the voice from the background was booming out in its apex.
 
“I’m already outside, can you come out so we can both go in together?”
 
I pleaded and she accepted.
 
Few minutes later, I saw her catwalk towards me, with that shy smile of her.
 
She came forward and I pecked her on the cheeks, while she did the same.
 
“Welcome, baby girl.”
 
“I can see you are really having fun in there.”
 
I said smiling at her.
.
“Yes dear, but it would be incomplete if I don’t dance with Ken this night.”
.
She said smiling innocently, as I could see this excitement and yearning in her eyes.
.
I couldn’t help but sigh, gently in my heart, as the popular saying, “This life no balance.” Appeared in my mind.
.
“Why don’t you forget about Ken and move on? there are many cute guys in our class and in Ss3 also, why don’t you just chose from there, I don’t want all this to end in premium tears, or you just forget about relationsh¡p for now.”
.
I said to her, while holding her arm that I squeezed gently.
.
She just smiled, gently and just shook her head.
.
“I love Ken, and that’s it, even if he doesn’t notice me, but I’m ok, loving him, I will be fine, but I have this feeling that this feeling would be reciprocated in due time, just Chillax dear, and moreover the new guy, in class, who has been with Ken all day is cute, he looks perfect for you, don’t you think so?”
.
She said smiling naughtily and I couldn’t help but smile bitterly, as I didn’t know what to tell her, guys are just disappointment to me unless proven wrong by the individual.
.
We both walked into the blaring of the music.
.
Immediately we entered, I looked forward and I turned to have a clashing eye contact with Ken, immediately we exchanged eye contact he immediately turned sharply and left the area he was in to another side, the new guy followed him to the place he went to.
.
They both look very much close as I wondered what the relationsh¡p was with the both.
.
Christabel who was with me seemed as if she noticed what happened and stared at me suspiciously, as she asked.
.
“Why the reaction from him, immediately he saw us?”
.
“I dunno? you can go ask him, moreover isn’t he your proposed boyfriend?”
.
I asked her as I walked towards the bar area, when I heard someone say.
“May I be buttered and sugared for consumption if it is not the one and only Gina.”
.
I turned to know who it was and I couldn’t help but smile.
.
STAN’S POV
.
I felt her soft l-ips press against my cheeks, as the wetness, clicked on it.
.
wow! so soft, I muttered in my mind.
.
“Is he your friend?”
.
She asked Ken.
.
“He is a Friend and also my cousin bro, Shey you see he is very cute don’t come and be crushing on him ooo!! his gf no go spare you.”
.
He said smiling like a guy who’s girlfriend was pressing his mumu button (wink)

.
Since I knew this Ken, this is the first time he has talked sense.
.
“Wow! your cousin bro? he is actually very cute, I would love to know you more and would you care for a dance later?
.

.
Do you know what it means to dance with the celebrant, that one na public eyesight it go be, though I know I got moves, but I don’t know how to dance salsa dance, or all this rom-ntic dance, God save me.
.
“Ohhh no problem dear, I would be very much glad and I would feel honored.”
.
I said smiling like a fool.
.
She smiled and left, while I stood transfixed.
.
“Mumu! na so person take de blow, see as I advertise your mumu self finish. no come de get ideas ooo!! before your head go swell pass Sydney Talker.”
.
He said drawing me from my thoughts.
.
“Guy abeg, if she mistakenly call me to dance, what would I do? I never dance for public before.”
.
“Guy you be mumu ooo!! your dance na my dance, use this your big head for one’s. OK the thing be say you go drink small, so you go shark and get bold.”

“Guy I don’t take alcoholics.”
.
I said in protest.
