Kehinde Is Not A Gentleman

Lanre was about to make an excuse not to attend when Ify showed up from no where telling her mom she already invited Lanre for the party and Lanre said she was going to go with the back to Enugu. Lanre mentally scoffs but gave a smile to cover it up.

“I did said that, but I can no longer stay back at Enugu. Sorry I did not tell you earlier Ifeoma. My workers called a few minutes ago telling me something urgent came up which I can’t necessarily share. So I will be taking the next flight back to Lagos. Like I’m about to leave”. Lanre said not letting the smile wither.

“We can drop you off at the airport since we will be taking that route home, right mom?” Ify said. The mother agreed.

“Ma are you people also going back to Enugu like right now? Then you have just saved me the money I would have paid for transport from Nsukka to Enugu”. Lanre said excitedly.

“Oh no! I have to wait for a friend of mine. She’s a lecturer here. And it may take an hour extra before we leave. Since you said it is urgent, you should get going”. Mrs. Ochuzi said. Then she told Lanre to call her when she arrives Lagos. Lanre told her she would do just that, while Ify offered to see Lanre off to the shuttle stand.

“You started lying to your mom now, I thought I was the only liar in this world like you made me feel”. Lanre blunted out. Ify scoffs.

“You still sound like the only liar when you lie. You should win the award of liars if it was to be given”. Ify said. Lanre told her she only acts but does not lie. She acts when necessary.

“Hope you understood what I told you earlier? Make sure you never come close to the Governor’s wife again. I don’t want to see you again”. Ify said. Lanre told her but she was dying to make her stay at her party.

“I just wanted you to see how K treats me like a queen”. Ify said. Lanre asked her if she was referring to Kehinde. Ify told her whatever.

“Kehinde is not a gentleman o, hope you know? I mean he is not gentle in bed, the type of man I like”. Lanre said making a crackling sound with her laugh. She looked at Ify’s annoyed face.

“It’s a good thing he has not touched you yet, it means he respects you”. Lanre said. She told Ify she could tell she and K were yet to have any form of intimacy in bed.

“I’m jealous of you, you know! They respect you. Almost everyone see me as a slut, even my own so called accredited best friend. Well, is there not a good reason why we are no longer friends?” Lanre said before walking away from Ify. Ify shook her head. Was Lanre trying to make her pity her just now? She was not going to fall for her drama.
