Feeling Fooled

Sophia was confused for a moment,

"I don't get you, why are you surprised that I know Bola?" She paused,

"have you met her before today?"

Sophia got up from the couch and walked towards Tunde, who had his hands in the pocket of his trousers and was looking at another direction.

"T have you met Bola before now?"

He looked at her briefly, before turning away.

"Yeah, I will tell you all about it, but please can I get to eat my food first?"

Sophia kept quiet for a moment, looking intently at him, whatever it is he has to say, she can sense, it isn't good.

"Fine, let me go get your food." She walked past him into the kitchen.

As she turned on the microwave to heat up Tunde's food, she could feel a knot tightening in her stomach. For some strange reason, she felt uneasy about whatever Tunde has to tell her.

She found herself nervously tapping against the microwave, as she waited for the food to get warm.
