Being a guest in Steven’s house was quite interesting… Then was nothing but it was okay.. Steven was the nicest guy, I’ve ever met.. I know he’s struggling hærd to maintain both of us and I wished I could do something to help.
During my early stay in his house I did nothing, I was too re occupied with myself trying to figure out some issues.. No matter how hærd I try to remember, I just can’t.. I began to wonder I was going to be alone forever but then Steven assured me everything was going to be alright and he was going to help me find out who I was and he was going to keep looking after me till I’m ready to leave..
Steven did his best by going to police stations and other places asking and trying to get answers about who i am and where I was from… I felt so happy seeing him do so much for me, even though I was a stranger… I began to get closer and attracted to him..
Steven was the shy type from what I could see, he was too nervous to have a chat with me. So I decided to make it easy for him… We soon began to get acquitted and all that..
At first I didn’t want to get too close to him cause I was afraid he might use the opportunity to enter between my legs but I saw differently, Steven made sure I had my privacy and only checked on me whenever I called on him… Such a gentleman.
So on my part, I decided to help keep the house tidy and neat and thanks to Elena, she showed me some few tips about maintaining the house, I swept, washed, ironed his clothes.. I arranged everything in order and every where was neat.
Steven was surprised about what I did to the house and he was grateful, since I was now doing everything in the house especially the cook Steven always gave me some money to buy the groceries and keep some for myself …. We soon became friends and we did help each other to get things easier for the both of us.
So one Saturday morning, I woke up with a start cause I had a weird dream, but it felt real in the dream I saw myself in a wealthy life style and I was a well made business woman.. I saw a lot of things in the dream and what I saw next was the thing that woke me up.. I was driving in a car when another car crashed into mine…
Maybe it wasn’t a dream but my memories.. But if I crashed in a car what was I doing on a grass, cause that’s where Steven found me, A lot of thoughts filled my head.. I was confused about what I had experienced.
So after i had prayed, I woke up and went to the living room, as I arrived there I saw a note on the table, it was from Steven… It said he had to leave early for the market but he had made some breakfast for me..
I didn’t care much about the breakfast, I wanted to talk to him about the dream I had and now he’s not here…
I sat on the couch covering my face with my hands.. Thinking about what to do.. Just then I remembered Elena..
So I wore some clothes and went to see her.. Elena was busy sweeping the house when I came. We exchanged pleasantries and after that I told her about my dream… She listened attentively to every word I said, after that she gave me her own idea about my situation.
.
Elena ➡ Well, I cannot say whether or not if it’s a dream or not… But judging from your looks I can tell you’re not one of us..
.
Monica ➡ What do you mean one of us?
.
Elena ➡ I meant you don’t belong among people like us, you’re from a very distinguished background… And I mean it… Even the way you talk and behave.. And your manner of approach.. It’s different..
.
Monica ➡ So you’re saying.. That my dream might be real..
.
Elena ➡ Maybe.. Have you told Steven..
.
Monica ➡ No he left, before I could even tell him..
.
Elena ➡ Don’t worry, everything will be okay.
.
As we were talking, I noticed a lady standing in front of Steven’s house, she was looked quite young and like those campus slay queens, she wore skimpy clothes, which barely covered her body…
Elena and I went to see who the lady was and why was she here?
.
Monica ➡ Excuse me?
.
Uzoma ➡ Yes?
.
Monica ➡ Who are you looking for?
.
Uzoma ➡ I’m looking for Steven, is he around?
.
Monica ➡ No, he went out… And who are you?
.
Uzoma ➡ I’m Uzoma.. Steven’s girlfriend.. Nice to meet you.
.
Elena ➡ (shocked) Girlfriend…. You must be mistaken, Steven has no girlfriend..
.
Uzoma ➡ Well, now you know..
.
Monica ➡ Well, he’s not here… You can now leave…
.
Uzoma ➡ This isn’t your house, so mind your business..
.
Monica ➡ Yes it is, I’m in charge of the property… I’m Steven’s house guest!
.
Uzoma ➡ (shocked) House guest? Liar… Steven never mentioned anything about a house guest..
…
Monica ➡ Well now you know! I’ll let him know you came… So please leave.
.
The arrogant b*tch didn’t believe what she heard, she gave us a mean look and hissed before walking away…
After that, Elena and I went back to our houses… To be honest, I felt jealous when that girl said she was Steven’s girlfriend which I know it’s a lie… Steven and I always talk to each other if he had a girlfriend he would told me about it… Though I haven’t told or shown him yet but I adore him.. No.. I am falling for him.
After a while, I decided to go out and go around the neighborhood… After spending weeks here i had gotten used to the place by then everyone knew about me but they all thought I was Steven’s cousin or something..
With the money Steven had given me I went to a nearby beauty salon to get my hair done and paint my fingernails.. Don’t get me wrong I have this habit of looking fashionable every time.. Since Steven was providing the money, I always came here on weekends to work on myself.. Though Steven was spending quite a lot of money on me.. He never complained, he was saw to my needs without me asking… I hated being a burden on someone so I began to save a little money so I could pay me back someday.
After a few hours, I was done and fixed up, I checked myself and saw how lovely I looked.. I paid the beautician and went off to buy groceries, I went to Sabon gari cause it was the best place to buy food stuffs and it was more fresh and better than the ones back home and not mention.. The buyers were quite generous whenever I came to buy their stuff.
After that, I went back home to get the food ready… Before I could reach the house, I noticed someone was following me… At first I didn’t mind but then it was getting scary and annoying..
Even as I reaches the house, the bastard even followed me there as well, as I went into the house, I heard a knock on the door… I was very terrified if only I had a phone, I would have called Steven or Elena..
The knocking kept hitting the door and after I brief moment I decided to open the door. I asked who it was and The person claimed he was Mallam Ibrahim.. I recalled Elena telling me about a guy with that name but I never paid much attention so I opened the door.
.
Monica ➡ Yes?
.
Mal. Ibrahim ➡ Ebening madam! How are you?
.
Monica ➡ I’m fine.. How can I help you?
.
Mal. Ibrahim ➡ You may not know me but I helped clean ya wounds…
.
Monica ➡ Okay.. Thanks… Anything else..
.
Mal. Ibrahim ➡ Uhm yes.. You see Monica, you’re a very attractive and beautiful lady and I would like to take you out sometime..
.
Monica ➡ Thanks.. But I’m not in relationsh¡ps right now…
.
Mal. Ibrahim ➡ But can you at least consider?
.
Monica ➡ Okay.. I will goodbye…
.
I slammed the door at his face and hissed going back to the kitchen… How can I be in a relationsh¡p with someone that is a stalker… That’s really creepy and annoying… The idiot almost gave me an heart attack..
After that, I went to prepare everything for the evening… Later that night.. Steven returned home looking tired and down… I could tell business was bad today..
.
Monica ➡ Evening..
.
Steven ➡ Evening… wow, you look great..
.
Monica ➡ Thanks, how’s business ?
.
Steven ➡ Terrible..
.
Monica ➡ Sorry why don’t you rest and eat something then we can talk about it..
.
Steven and I heard to the table, I served the food and we prayed and then began to eat.. From the way, he was gulping down my food, I must say it was delicious.. I loved watching him eat away like that… In the process of staring at him, I lost myself thinking about him, Steven looked up and our eyes met.. I quickly shifted my gaze feeling nervous… Why was I nervous? I felt my heart beat so fast.. I could swear Steven was hearing it as well, after the meal, Steven and I packed the meal and went to the kitchen..
.
Monica ➡ Tell me, what happened today?
.
Steven ➡ Well, I was scammed and I don’t know where to get money to replace the goods I’ve lost..
.
Monica ➡ Like how much do you need?
.
Steven ➡ 100k
.
Monica ➡ Well, you’re in luck, I saved some money from the moment you give me, it’s half the money you’re looking for, it’s not much but it’s better than none.
.
Without warning, Steven hugged me and thanked me for saving his business.. His arms were around me, so I hugged me too instead of standing and looking at me… Just then I remembered something, I pushed him off, Steven looked surprised wondering what happened.
.
Steven ➡ is something wrong?
.
Monica ➡ Do you have a girlfriend?
.
Steven ➡ No..
..
Monica ➡ Well, who’s Uzoma?
.
Steven ➡ Uzoma, she came here!?
.
Monica ➡ Yes she did… Is she your girlfriend?
.
Steven ➡ No.. She is my mom’s neighbor that’s all… There’s nothing good on between us.
.
Hearing that made my heart jump with joy.. But I didn’t let Steven know I was happy about him not having a girlfriend..
Steven and I began to wash the plates together.. As I was about to put the plates back on their shelf, I stepped on a slippery place where the water gathered and fell on the ground hurting my ankle… God it was painful.
Steven quickly checked on me.. He reached down and grabbed my leg.. I felt a twitch all around my body as I felt Steven’s hands.. He began m-ssaging my ankle slowly… And it felt good.. I bit my l-ips so I wouldn’t mo-n..
Seeing that I couldn’t stand properly, Steven picked me up in his arms and took me to my room.. He tended to my ankle and suggested I took a rest.. After that, he left and went back to his room.
That night all I could think about was Steven, I couldn’t sleep, whenever I closed my eyes, I saw his face,… That handsome face with a cute smile… My heart kept beating quickly… I tried to shut him out but I couldn’t…
I had to take a bath pouring the cold water down my body, I heard it makes you have a good sleep, after that I wore my pajamas and went to sleep… While I was sleeping, I had that same dream but this time I was something else part from that.. I saw who I was and some familiar faces.. I knew who I was but where I came from was still a mystery…
I woke up with a start, yelling in fright… Steven quickly came to my room grabbing hold of me.. I held him tight telling him not to leave me alone… He understood what was happening and laid down close to me with his arms around me… He rubbed my hair assuring me everything would be okay… Eventually we slept together in my room that night.
That morning when I woke up, Steven had already woken up and sat next to me asking me about what happened last night. I told him I had a bad dream but I didn’t tell him that I finally knew who I was….
