Poisoned love episode 1

(The Break-up)

Episode 1

Writer: Faith Lucky

Every lady’s dream is to get married to a young, charmingly handsome, educated and above all, sparklingly wealthy guy.

Well, that was the kind of thing person Steven was.

Everything a woman desired – or perhaps, almost everything a woman desired – was found in Steven. Yes, Steven, the son of a billionaire; the King of hearts; the champion of Cariters University.

He was this kind of guy that every lady felt special just having to spend a minute with him.

He was this kind of guy that every lady was ready to defile their dignity for, without a second thought.

Yes, Steven; Steven Damola – also a spoilt brat.

He parked his SUV jeep in the school garage and looked through his phone. There was a message; a message from Cynthia.

It read:

“hello, Steven. I really did enjoy last night. I hope that could happen again anytime soon. Please, give me a call whenever you need me”.

Steven scoffed and smiled.

“of course, I will. Whenever I need you” he thought to himself as he alighted from his jeep with his designers school bag.

Along the eatery in Cariters, Michelle walked along with her best friend, Patricia, laughing and nattering.

But, they were finally interrupted by the presence of Lily and her gang of friends – Stacy, Gwen and Chinwe.

They stopped right in front of Michelle and Patricia, making it difficult for them to you pass on.

“you little bitch”, Lily rasped at Michelle. “I heard you went over to Steven’s home yearsterday.

You really are so shameless, aren’t you?”

“is that what you’re burbling about?” Michelle asked. “is that why you had to disrupt my way?”

She has paused and laughed and finally wore on a frown.

” I know you’re just angry you weren’t the one who had the opportunity of going over to his house. Well, that’s because Steven would never accept you into his bedroom.

“now, get out of my way”, Michelle said and walked away with Patricia, brushing Lily’s shoulders.

“Hah! That little bitch! She’s really getting on my nerves. I might just squeeze her to death.”

“calm down, Lily,” Gwen said, placing her hand on her shoulders. “we’ll look for a way to deal with her.

Mrs Kate parked in front of Cariters University as

she awaited her daughter to get off the car.

“bye, Sophia” she said to her, her hand on her

laps.

“bye, mom”, Sophia replied with a smile and got

off the car.

She waited till her mother drove away before

waking into the school building.

It was magnificent.

That was her first day there in school and she

was really hoping she would have fun in it.

she was really hoping it could perhaps, be

compared to her previous school. It really pained

her a lot that she had to change from it, but

there was nothing she could do since her mom

was transferred by her company to the state.

They had to relocate.

Well, maybe it was going to be fun, because a

week after their arrival, she had made a friend –

Treasure – who was also a student of Cariters.

As a matter of fact, Treasure had been the one

who had recommended the school to her.

She stopped somewhere along the library and

wandered where Treasure might be. She also

wandered where she could find her first lecture

hall.

She finally thought of bringing out her phone to

call Treasure, but she was halted at the sight of

a guy she has seen.

“Damn!” she exclaimed silently.

Was that for real?

She saw him walking with some group of boys,

but he was extremely outstanding.

He had these eyes that displayed a rom-nce

feeling. He had pink l-ips that longed for some

k-ssing. He had this dark curly hair that fitted his

fair complexion.

And when he laughed, smiled, Gosh! It was so

charming.

Sophia saw him walking away and felt a life time

opportunity walking away. She couldn’t help but

wonder if someone could be that cute.

“hello, Miss. Are you lost?” she heard a voice

behind her and quickly turned around to see who

it was.

It was a boy; also good looking, but couldn’t be

compared to the guy she had just seen.

“uh… No. I mean, yes. I’m looking for the GST

department”, she replied quickly.

Episode 2

“the GST department? What course are you

offering?” he asked.

“laboratory science”.

“it… seems you’re new here? I haven’t seen you

in any of our lectures before”.

“yes. I’m kind of new”.

“okay, then. I’m Oliver, and you?”

“I’m Sophia”

They exchanged a warm handshake.

“come with me. I’ll show you to the GST lecture

hall” Oliver said and Sophia walked along with

him.

He took the longest route to the GST department

because he wanted to spend some more time

with Sophia.

It seemed he enjoyed her company.

He led her to the GST department and stopped

at the entrance.

“okay, dear. See you later”, Oliver said as he

patted her shoulders and left.

Sophia looked at him and smiled.

She was about going into the hall when she

heard her name from behind. She turned around

and discover it was Treasure.

“Treasure!” she called happily a

“it’s a good thing I finally met you”.

“I’ve also been looking for you. Welcome to

Cariters. Come on, we might be late for lectures”

Treasure replied and walked into the GST hall

with her.

The lecture lasted for two hours and at that

time, Treasure and Sophia were already

exhausted. They decided to have lunch together.

They were still existing the GST hall when Oliver

walked up to them, a napkin around his neck.

“hi, Sophia” he greeted excitedly and waved at

Treasure.

“hi,” Sophia replied.

Treasure was starring at them.

“uhm, how about we hang out for lunch?”

Sophia was tempted to agree but quickly had a

second thought about it.

“I’d really love to, but, I’m already booked with

my friend” she replied and adjusted the

textbooks she held in her hands.

“maybe next time” she added.

Oliver starred at her for a while without saying a

word.

She was beautiful. He admired her.

“okay, then. Next time” he replied and left with a

smile.

It seemed Treasure was just waiting for him to

leave so she could unleash her curiosity.

“when did you and Oliver become acquainted?”

she asked with a grim look.

“just today”, replied Sophia as they continued

walking. “he was the one who showed me to the

GST department.”

“hm. Well, you better be careful around him”.

“why? Is there something wrong with him? He

seems a nice person”.

“well, yes. He might look like a nice person, but

you know, there’s a saying that, birds of the

same feathers flocks together. He’s a friend of a

jerk”.

“a jerk? And who’s the jerk?”

“believe me, darling. You wouldn’t want to know

him”.

They walked into the eatery together and settled

down on a table.

They ordered for some light food and kept

themselves busy with it while going through their

lecture notes.

Shortly, Sophia saw him again – the unique

charming guy. The guy that had almost held her

breath in suspense when she first saw him.

He came into the eatery with some boys, Oliver

included, and settled down on a table that was

distant from theirs.

“Treasure,” Sophia called. “who’s that guy over

there? The one sitting next to Oliver?”

Treasure starred at him and flinched.

“who? The jerk?” she asked with a disgusted

look.

“wait, hold on. Don’t tell me he was the jerk you

were referring to? What on earth makes him a

jerk?”

“Oh, my Gosh! Girlfriend, don’t tell me you’ve

also contacted the virus?”

“virus? What virus?”

Sophia was still starring and smiling at him.

“the virus that every lady in this school contacts

about him.

“he’s a womanizer; a chronic one”.

“what?” Sophia shriek. “really? Does he have a

girlfriend?”

“girlfriend?” Treasure asked and scoffed. “take a

look around this eatery, Sophia. Just take a look

around. Every single lady in this eatery is

starring at him – every single lady. They’re all

starring at him and trying to entice him. As long

as you’re an admirer, you’re his girlfriend.

“I can fearlessly say he’s slept with more than

half of the ladies in this school”.

“what? Are you serious?”

“of c, I am. That’s the kind of person Steven is.

He’s indeed a charming guy, and that’s why he

flirts with every single lady that comes his way.

He uses them and dumps them.

“and you know, the worst part is, these ladies do

you realize he has other lovers, but they still take

delight in laying down their bodies for him. I just

don’t understand how girls could be so foolish.

They don’t mind if he cheats on them, just as

long as they get a bit of his attention”.

Sophia was a bit debilitated by Treasure’s story.

She felt bad that the guy she had admired was a

womanizer.

Well, she really wouldn’t blame him. He was

really very handsome.

“hm. So, tell me. Are you also an admirer?”

Sophia asked.

“of course, I’m not. Please, you know I already

have a date” Treasure replied sharply.

“you know”, she continued.” there’s this certain

lady,Lily. Steven had broken up with her a couple

of months ago after using her uncountably. She

had almost ran mad when it happened. It’s a

miracle she was able to return back here in

school.

“right now, the lady who seems to be on board is

Michelle. But, that doesn’t mean he doesn’t flirt

around with the other ladies. When I say he has

a girlfriend on board, I mean he has someone he

uses for regular supply”.

“that’s too bad. I really thought he was a nice

fellow” Sophia said.

She suddenly felt sad and weak.

*

She was done with her lectures for the day and

walked along the road to get a cab. Her mom

had texted her earlier that she would be unable

to pick her up from school due to her tight

schedule at the office.

Treasure was still having an evening lecture and

she couldn’t wait for her.

She stopped by the roadside, hoping to catch a

cab soon because she really needed some rest.

Still waiting, an SUV jeep pulled up in front of her

and she wandered whom it might be.

The driver lowered his glasses and starred

through the window of his car.

It was Steven
