At Work.
"Ekaaro, ma."
[Morning, ma.]
I called out to the kiosk's owner who had just showered her pleasantries. I'm not really sure how old she was but she looked fifty. She was always the first person to say a hello to me. Even when I'm absentminded, she would keep the pleasantries up till I respond. Somehow, her kind gestures remind me of Lara. She must have been like Lara when she was young. A lady who doesn't really put much worth in self respect.
I hurried towards the building which housed our offices, walking through the large undeveloped and uninhibited compound. I caught the sight of the tree under which I sat the other day to read the ugly news.
I'm sure that there would be no one at work because it's just 7:10am. The resumption hour was 8:00am, and many do arrive 8:30am and even up to 10:00. But both those who resumed 8:00 and 10:00am would write 8:00am and no saint has the guts to rat them out, else you would have to suffer it throughout your stay in the office.
Late yesterday, I had texted Dayo, the secretary of our boss to come as early as 7:00am to work today. I so had it in mind to fulfil the bet or words I'd made or broken with Lara.
And from the look of things, the entrance of the building was already opened. I walked through the door into the public staff room. There was no one in sight.
I walked stealthily through towards the passage which led to the boss's office. I wanted to be sure that twas really Dayo. Because I had also texted our boss and few other people to arrive at work by 7:30am. Badass eh?
I walked through the passage, pressing my back to the wall so I could toss my head halfway through the door to my boss's office to figure out who was there. But that was a risk.
I did and I saw Dayo with her back to the door. She was standing before the boss's work table, arranging some papers. I bet she had no idea of my intentions.
As soon as I figured that out, I took the appropriate position and walked into the office. She turned her head at once without forsaking the duty.
"Dare, the prophet and faithful worker. Why wake me wake up this early?!"
She concentrated on what she was doing as I got to her. She was bent halfway into the table arranging the files. I took advantage of the moment.
I got to her and pressed myself to her backside, her shooted booties, as though we were having a lapdance.
"Woah, woah. What's that, Dare."
She stood up trying to turn but then I wrapped my arms around her and began to squeeze her bounty boobs.
"Is this really you, Dare? You no longer care about what would happen to your spiritual life as you've always argued?"
She argued, chuckling as I squeezed her boobs even harder, doing my best to cup the mounds, roughening her blouse.
"You want my cock, right? You have it."
I whispered into her ears, my stiffened jaw pressing against her delicate cum soft cheek.
"Are you sure about that?"
She pushed her booties back a bit, rubbing it hard against my cock, moving up and down, by and by... going all 360° over my swelling boner.
"You don't have the benefit of doubt."
I muttered, trying to concentrate on the words. The movement of the butts scared the semen traveling up and down my boner which is now poking at my light trouser.
"Very well then."
She turned to face me and wrapped her arms around me. We were almost the same height, but she's thick and curvy with good and succulent boobs. You should wonder why my boss would cheat on his wife and sons with her.
We locked lips and she kissed me ruthlessly. She kissed me as though twas all her plan and not mine. She moved her lips over mine as though she had been waiting for that one time, that day. Her hands roughening my cloth at the back.
I fought my lips free and removed her arms wrapped around me.
"Let's get to work."
I pushed her back till she didn't have nowhere to go no more. The table stood as an advocate as well as an embargo.
I tossed my arm past her and swept the files on the table off it. I made her seat on the table and pushed her to lie back down.
I leaned forward on her, halfway climbing on her as I caught her lips again with mine. My hands roughening her boobs as I sucked her tongues hungrily. My hands on the boobs, sliding up and down until a gentle moan escaped her lips. She was mumbling into my mouth as she struggled to regulate the pleasure.
I slid one of my hands down her belly to her panties. I began to fiddle with the bridge, playing my hand over it as she shuddered underneath me.
I let go of her lips and brought my face to her boobs after she had roughly unbuttoned it, my face plying the cleavages like the haughty hoofs of a crazed horse. My tongue licking the bridge of the bra, seeking to taunt the nipples.
Then suddenly, there was a presence behind both of us. I could feel it but I ain't sure about her. But before my mouth could even let go of her nipples I heard,
"Boss, come now!!!"
Then I heard hurrying footsteps as Dayo fought to stand up.
"What the fuck!!!"
We both turned to our boss who was looking like a dog whose tail had just been cut. Dayo stood behind me, scared to reveal her face.
"Dare! Unbelievable! So you've been a hypocrite all your life. I knew it. All those who claim to be holy are the worst."
He hurried towards me to hit me but then I ducked it and he fell on his lover, Dayo.
He rolled to be floor and stood up hurriedly. He chanted, saliva contending as well drooping from his lips,
"You are not only sacked but doomed. I'll make sure you never get a job not here, not anywhere."
He made for me again and I hurried to the door. The guy at the door wanted to catch but I knocked him out and hurried towards the staffroom.
Before the news could get to those who were just arriving at the staffroom I'd made my way out. I ran through the open field towards the exit cracking up.
"So, being crazy is this interesting."
I muttered as the kiosk's owner called at me again. I waved at her and brought out my phone.
I dialed Lara's number. Mission accomplished.
Lekki. ~Dare Ofegu~"What are you going to California for? You won't put your mother in the darkness of it all, would you?"I had tried to avoid her gaze in the first place but there is no use anymore. She wasn't the type to be beaten so easily. I knew my mother too well, she wouldn't stop until she had gotten to the root of the matter, believe me. Or better still, you can see for yourself."We already had this discussion, mom. I got an offer to work with a company over there. You know that I write poetry, so one of the companies in California read one of my poems on allpoetry.com and wanted to meet me in person. I have been postponing it but now that uncle is ready to help, why should I let the opportunity slip off my palms?"I quit talking but the stare she was wearing said it all. She was not ready to give in, I could bet on my life. Then she said,"I had a dream."I stood up at once and
Airport.~Dare Ofegu~"I don't want you to go, yet I can't stop you."Lara remonstrated, her right arm tucked in my left. We were brushing sides and standing in the broad gleaming hallway of the Nnamdi Azikwe International airport."I can't help it too. I must go find that traitor and ask him why he had done that to me after the trust. I even told him that I was giving him the last chance and that if he betray me again, twould be the end of our friendship."I explained, untucking my arm as I wounded it around her waist instead. She took a peek at me, I could see surprise splattered on her face."You can't just expect a lion to stop being a lion because you rescued it and make it live in your house. One day, the killer instinct which defines its being would always flare up."She looked away. I scoffed,"Kola is no lion. He's but a hyena. A very funny creature which hardly works but always want to
California."America."I muttered, looking through the window of the taxi. It seemed to too real to believe. I didn't know why I kept doubting whether or not twas true.My experience in the plane had been extraordinary also. Feeling yourself floating amongst the clouds you had always thought to be an illusion. The clouds being your only neighbors."Your first time?"The taxi driver looked at me through the rearview. I looked away from the window to the tough but hospitable face of the driver with scanty beards. I was trying so hard to compare him to the car drivers back in my country."Yes. My first time."I nodded, trying to convince myself. I was the only one in the taxi. I tried to remember boarding a car from Onipanu to Mushin back in Nigeria, we always have four passengers at the back, two at the front. But nah! I'm riding solo in this Taxi, how refreshing."You want me to
CLEAVER'S AVE. ~Dare Ofegu~ "Come,the dogs won't bite you." As I watched those words escape the woman's small lips, a lot of questions stumbled on themselves in my mind. Questions like... Are you the dogs? Are the dogs you? Have you been a dog before? Were you a dog in your formal life. How could be so sure? But the questions only drooped on my consciousness because I didn't want to be rude. I didn't know her from Adam, neither from Eve. Hehe. But then, strangers should watch what they say to newbies. The memory of a man who was told the same about a dog but was ripped into pieces by the Rottweiler is evergreen in my mind. I found my words, trying not to stutter, though obviously she could see that I'm scared, "You can't be so sure, ma. Dogs are at the mercies of their owners." She shot me a smile, standing behind the two dogs whose dancing tongues were caught between the bridge of t
Morning. ~Dare Ofegu~ "Wakey Wakey!" I heard the call from outside the door of my room. I rolled in bed mumbling inaudibly. "Mr Dare, are you awake yet?" The call came again. I fisted the duvet in my hands, trying to knock off the intrusion but then there was little I could do. "I'm coming in now." That was the final call. I turned over, my face to the white ceiling of the room which seemed endless. The duvet half-tucked into my chest. I was in pajamas. I heard the doorknob bothered and the door creaked. Then came a sequence of barking. "Morning, Mr Dare." The woman called again but even before I could stand up, one of the dogs had jumped on the bed and climbed on me, licking my face with his wet tongue. I could feel my chest wailing for help. Its 130 pounds almost capable of digging up my intestines. "Shit." I wrestled with the dog and ma
Samantha's Hood.~Dare Ofegu~"What do we do now?"I asked no one in particular, standing before the enormous gate of the opulent building."Talking to you, Theo."I looked down to my right at the American Akita. We've been standing there since few minutes ago and no idea popped into my shallow brain yet.I had thought that as soon as I get to the gate of the building of the Billionaire, I would just knock on the door and enter through. But then, here we are, and I'm still struggling to place the appropriate thought of what to do."I guess we should go back and think of something. That's the appropriate thing to do, else we would make a fool of ourselves."I was staring at the metallic giant who I ain't sure whether or not twas staring back."But there should be a gateman here at least. Or what do you think, Theo?"Theo had been indifferent all along. He had been s
Big Basin Redwoods State Park ~Dare Ofegu~ "What's this place?" I have been meaning to be quiet all along but I just couldn't help it anymore. Who would had been able to help keeping quiet, when you're being led by a strange lady through the woods. Through thick barks, unusually tall trees, dry path stalked by fallen dried leaves and twigs. A kinda creepy forest. At first, I'd been quiet also because Theo was. I have always believed that if anything is wrong, a dog would be the first to figure it out. And since Theo had been indifferently playing along, I found no need to be jumpy. But now, I couldn't help it anymore. "It's been over 20 minutes since we've been walking through this place. Are you taking me for sacrifice or what?" She stopped walking at the accusations. She was at the forefront, myself and Theo behind her. Then suddenly, she spun around and cracked up, "Is that what your bl
A week Later.~Dare Ofegu~"Thanks for the food."I looked up from the several dishes to Sarah who was standing as usual beside the table to the left."It's my duty."She smiled and I resumed eating. I plunged the tip of the fork into the steak, holding down, for the knife to do its justice. I had a cut and took a bite."Why don't you join me? You've been very helpful. I won't want to treat you like a maid or stuff. You're like a mother to me, and no sane person watches his mother stand while he eats."She hesitated,"No, I'm fine. It doesn't really matter --""I insist."I interrupted and she gave up. She took two steps towards the table and pulled the chair before her. She settled into it, her palms on her laps."If I may say, young master."I dropped the cutlery at that. Believe me, I wasn't expecting such mushy approach. I shot her a gaze,"You're maki
