Chapter 11

Tobi's pov

My first class today is in ten minutes and I'm 20 minutes away from school.

I'm never late,this is all because of Lisa,this girl is killing me,quite literally,she forced me to take her clubbing like freaking clubbing!! She then forgot she went out with her boyfriend and went on dancing and doing all sorts with her friends.

I was alone most of the time,why I didn't just leave her there was beyond me.

And then I made the stupid decision to drink away my sorrows,I got so drunk that I couldn't drive home,i had to sleep in one of the rooms the club so conveniently had,and my so called girlfriend left me there with a lame excuse.

Why I allowed her force me to go clubbing was beyond me not even Eni could make me go to parties.

I smiled thinking of the time when Eni decided she was old enough to attend parties,she tried so hard to convince me to take her but I didn't listen and eventually she let it go,cause at the time we did everything together,she had always been a social butterfly,wild but still so Innocent,all the trouble I got into as a child was as a result of her mischief and that's why I____

I quickly tuned on the radio in my car to stop my line of thoughts

************

"We are going to have our first test soon, be prepared because I won't be announcing when" The lecturer said

The grumbling sounds and complaints echoed in the lecture Hall

Some said

"Why do they always do this "

"What is this guy trying to prove now"

"He should give us a date jor, as if studying isn't stressful enough"

"We already have like three tests coming up,why are these lecturers wicked"

"That's his business,I have things to do, I can't be studying for a test without a date"

Some just hissed.

There were so many things being said all at once that I couldn't even hear myself think.

Until the lecturer shouted "If you don't keep quiet now, the test will hold right this minute!!"

He then gave a stern look.

The Hall went quiet immediately.

"Good,see you all in the next class" He said smiling like a crazy person and then walked out.

I'm seriously tired,some lecturers are just out to frustrate students.

I consoled myself with the thought of being in my final year and the hope of it ending soon.

I'll be able to start anew when i go abroad for Med school i thought blissfully until I remembered the test and let out a sigh and said

"Well I guess I'm up for an all nighter"

I'm not one of those people that just get things without trying so hard,so I had always spent most of my time studying as a result.

"I'll have to visit the library later today" I mumbled to myself.

************

While walking down to the lab for a practical class,my phone rang.

It was from my mom,I love her to the moon even though she didn't but right now I wasn't in the mood for her complaints,so I just sent her a text telling her I was in class after her three attempts of calling and then she finally stopped

And I went on with my day....

*******

It's currently 3 in the afternoon and I'm in the library studying

My life was so dull and plain,I thought,

I'm twenty and I have no social life,no friends that actually care about me,suck ups and opportunist were all that surrounded me, just people I know due to being an Abayomi, fortunately for me though not many people know me as Kunle Abayomi's son,like who would think an Abayomi will be studying here in Nigeria and not in a school abroad like Yale or Oxford.

I have always been one to hide in plain site,my mom hates it but I'm the child she got.

Me deciding to study medicine and not a business related course made it worse,she saw me as a disappointment and she didn't fail to hide it.

And that is why when she suggested me hanging out with Lisa I didn't fight it,cause according to her I needed to come out.Whatever that means,I just wanted to please her and then I needed someone to help me forget about what I feel for Eni.

It is so wrong,my feelings for her are so wrong.

I guess that's why my mom thinks I'm a disappointment and my dad is never around,cause I'm cursed or something.

After trying my hardest not to call Eni again,I still broke my resolve and called her telling myself that just being platonic with her won't hurt but then she didn't answer.

I took out my phone and called her again.

No answer.

I don't know why I expected this to be any different, I have been calling her for the past two days and she hasn't answered

"This is for the best Tobi,your life is already shit don't make things worse" I told myself

Just when I was about heading home, I got a call, from my supposed girlfriend,

"Hi baby,let's go to the cinema,I want to watch a movie" She said

This Lisa girl annoys the crap out of me,all she cares about is herself the only reason I haven't broken this up is because i don't want to give my mom another reason to call me useless.

But right now I don't give a damn,I'm going to break things off with her right after the movie,I'll give her that luxury,although I really doubt she deserves it or if she'll even care.

"Which cinema" I asked

"Baby it's fields cinema" She said trying but failing badly to sound sweet.

"Sure, I'll see you there" I said

"Wait won't you pi_

I didn't wait for her to finish before hanging up

Well i guess I'm going to the movies, she might annoy me but at least she gets me away from my daily routine of only school related stuff.

I guess I'll have to find a girl that makes me feel alive but I don't find annoying and isn't Eni.

Piece of cake. I wish.

That will only happen when life finally feels I need a break from all this crap,which is most likely never.
