Girls' talk

It was almost 2 am before Abby and her brother went to bed. Since her mind was occupied as usual with the thoughts of a certain man, it took a while before sleep came, and she finally drifted off to dreamland.

When her phone started ringing and woke her up, it felt as if she had not even slept a wink. She tried ignoring it, but the person calling, was adamant. 'It seemed as if this person was purposely sent to torture me.' She thought in her foggy mind.

[Who is this!?] She answered the phone gruffly without checking the caller id.

[Are you still sleeping? It's past noon now, *abeg wake-up jor!] Dupe, Abby's best friend said

[Sis, I slept very late now... Please I'll call you back as soon as I wake up.]

[However late you slept, it's now time to get up. I'm dying of curiosity here can't you see?...]

[No I can't see because my eyes are still too heavy with sleep... I can't even think right now.] Abby pleaded. But she knew her pleading was just falling on deaf ears.

Persuading Dupe was never easy, especially if she had set her mind on a course. If she didn't get the gist she wanted over the phone, she won't hesitate to come to the house.

Dupe was like the elder sister Abby never had. They met five years ago at a fashion house where they both did their internship. At fifteen years old, Abby who was still in high school then was by far the youngest out of all the interns.

Twenty-one-year-old Dupe developed a sisterly love for the young girl who refused to be bullied by some spiteful individuals. They thought she was easy to target simply because she was young. How wrong they were... They became friends when Dupe intervenes in one of such situations for her. They've had each other's back ever since.

Abby glanced at the wall clock and saw that the time was truly past noon. She wondered how come she's still feeling tired even though she had slept for more than eight hours.

She put the phone on hands-free mode and reluctantly got out of bed, before dragging her tired limbs to the bathroom to pee. She splashed some water on her face to clear her foggy brain off sleep before going back to the room.

[So tell me who was it?] Dupe's voice gushed out through the phone's speaker excitedly.

[Who was what?] Abby asked, pretending she had no clue about what her friend was talking about.

[Stop playing dumb with me okay? You know me now. You know I won't hesitate to come down there and beat it out of you.] she half-shouted through the phone, her voice feigning anger.

[Josh is here o...] Abby teased her friend. Dupe and Josh used to date before they both decided to go their separate ways. Abby suspected they still love each other, but what was she to do when Dupe was stubborn about not settling with Josh again. And their coming together became impossible when Dupe decided to suddenly get married within months of their breakup.

[Ehn and so!? Abby, you know that name always leaves a bitter after-taste in my mouth. I don't know if you left some chunky part of your memory in dreamland, but do I need to remind you that I'm married now?]

[I'm sorry... It just sort of came out] Abby said apologetically.

[It's okay, just stop talking about him to me. Deal?]

[Deal!]

[So tell me; who was the lucky man that broke the seal to your honey pot? If it wasn't Mike then who?]

[The seal to my honey pot?!] Abby I repeated in wonder and laughed at Dupe's words. Dupe's mouth had no filter and Abby never ceased to get surprised at the vast array of ridiculous words that comes out each time she decided to open her mouth.

[It's Paul... The guy I told you I met six weeks ago... Remember?]

[Ohh yeah... but he hasn't been in contact for some time now...]

[Yeah, he just suddenly showed up, didn't even know how he got my address... I spent the day with him because I forgot my key at home, and you canceled on me. I had no choice but to go home with him...]

[Really?] Dupe asked mockingly and laughed. [Did I just heard you say you had no choice? Hmmnn... Is that the lie you've been telling yourself? Let's blame it on the key and Dupe, right?]

[Yeah it was.] Abby immediately agreed when she realized she was caught and laughed. You can't even pretend with me? *Nah wah for you o]

[Sorry, I don't know how to pretend... *Oya na, quickly tell me everything.]

[Couldn't you tell what happened afterward?... ]

[Abby I'm not dumb. I know you lost your virginity afterward. It's all the in-between juicy details I want to hear. I know and I'm sure you've wanted him all along.]

[Busybody, yes!... Yes, I've wanted him all along... He was looking so hot... God knows I tried soo much to resist temptation and keep my composure around him... But everything just spiraled out of my control...]

[Awwn... My poor, innocent baby... And I presume there was no negative reaction?]

[None at all...]

[Oh thank you, God! Finally! Abby I'm so happy for you girl...] Dupe gushed. Abby could hear genuine happiness for her in her friend's voice. It warmed her all over and made her thank God for the kind of family and friends she was surrounded by.

[So did you cum] Dupe suddenly asked and giggle

[Did I come where?] Abby was confused by Dupe's question.

CUM girl! You know, the hmmmnn, uunhhnn, and ooohhhh...] Dupe moaned sexily so Abby would easily get what she was saying. [The you almost touched the stars before you came back to earth sensation?]

[You want to know if I climaxed?]

[Yes now... Abby cum is very important o. Now that you've found sex, I don't want you to spend the rest of your life faking orgasm.] Dupe said seriously.

*Abeg: means, please

*Nah wah for you: means I'm surprised at your behavior.

*Oya na: It functions as a call to action and depending on the context. It can mean 'come on, 'hurry up' or 'please reconsider'.
