Bleeding hearts

” Mom, mom, mom come ooo, the yellow anty is dragging the ‘handbrake’ of broda Ezeashi oooo. She says she would cut the ‘lugi’ ooo, she’s dragging it like she wants to. ”

Little Kelechukwu ran towards the direction he had come from. I followed him immediately, my inner instinct told me that Eziashi Austine was on it again, but this time I was going to give him a piece of my mind. The fact that he is the only child in the family should not be an obstacle to him always misbehaving. If I weren’t smoking Igbo in the bathroom, I’d be drinking Alomo in the kitchen, or smelling Daddy’s tobacco in the closet … in a house full of kids! haba na, he was getting too much, who knows what he did this time.

kelechukwu stopped in front of Austin’s room, I also paused. My nose caught a strange smell, something smelled like oiled cucumbers (not the Anambra type).

I leaned into the room with the intention of surprising the scoundrel. It seemed like I was deep in a heated argument with someone, I quickly opened the door to prevent any physical confrontation.

” walahi mi moni must complete before I leave here … if not, heaven will receive a visitor without a third leg and Insah Allah, I know it would not be me.

I opened my mouth in shock, I couldn’t believe my eyes. Standing menacingly close to Austin was a tall, very clean blonde girl, as fresh as a yellow papaya, she was dressed like one of those girls in the playboy mansion, and by the gods! He had Austin’s ‘Handbrake’ in his lean, steady hands!

From the looks of things, Austin wasn’t enjoying ‘manual labor’. His face was contorted like the ‘yansh’ of a mallam when he’s ‘shitting’ some hard shit. His eyes looked at me pleadingly, begging me to come to his aid.

I ran quickly to separate the disputed duo.

“Ka chineke ne me si ugwu … what the hell is going on here?

eeeeehhhh … young lady, do you want to kill my only brother for me?

Can someone tell me what’s going on here? I screamed.

Austin began to mutter incomprehensibly amid loud gasps.

‘is … this, this, they were almajiri …

The girl cut him off immediately …

“Auntie, abeg tell this useless brother of yours to pay me my money ooo, let me pay my 100 thousand before the heavy kasala is unleashed here today ooo … abi you think I’m one of those little girls with whom you mess with “.

You know the part where they say ‘Blood is thicker than water? Well, it’s actually very true because even though Austin was wrong, the blood in me moved me to his defense.

“Abeg Abeg Abeg … who is your aunt? Heh, answer me! Let Thunda divide the balls that produced the dirty mouth you just used to call my brother useless … you are crazy, please if you don’t know how to talk just shut up and get out!

The young woman was caught off guard, calmed down and tearfully explained what had happened the night before … I was surprised beyond all expression.

I paused, looked from person to person, my mouth opening slowly as the situation began to unfold.

It seemed like Austin had regained his strength, so I asked him to explain his own side to the ‘Nigerian movie’ that was unfolding before me …

“Auntie, don’t worry about this criminal oooo … I saw her on the street, I toasted her ooo and she agreed to be my friend. We got home and ‘we help each other’ now she is asking for money. I told her she that ‘I liked it more for free’, real men don’t pay for sex, why should she? After all, she enjoyed it too. “

“Thunder fire your dirty mouth! … Free … eehhhh! He’ll be like saying you’re crazy, who are you toasting with, I’ll be like your level to you? Boy, if you don’t pay me my money. Gas over here na na “the girl shouted now very wild.

The little kelechi laughed … ‘Uncle pays him the money oooo … can’t you say that even touching the body doesn’t add money to the market?

Come closer that your dirty mouth day, I yelled at him … the little boy kept laughing as Austin ran to hide behind me. The young scoundrel lacked the courage of a man, but he was always doing things meant for strong men.

Nedu eeeee (I called him by his pet name) huh … so this is what you do now? Do you spend the little pocket money I give you on this? now you bring home prostitutes huh. Austin oooo, where did you learn this from ooo …

“Ehhhn, abeg, abeg, abeg, I am not a prostitute ooo I am a professional sex therapist please. I refuse and I refuse to be called a prostitute Abeg,” replied the blonde girl.

‘Ehhhh, chisos ooo., The wonders will never end. So prostitution has turned professional, chai … what will I not see in this country, I said as I crossed my arms over my ‘pimple’ on one breast.

I turned to my brother very scared; So Austin, are you now employing the services of a ‘sex therapist? I asked the scared young man with my finger pointing to his ‘handbrake’

‘hmmmm … well, since you enjoyed the services of this young lady, I think I should pay her a lot without delay because’ in the place where the person has to work, they cannot cut ‘… saying like this, I closed the door and dragged Kelechi away from a scene that was obviously going to get complicated.

Two hours later, Austin arrived in the backyard with one eye swollen and without his gold wristwatch and necklace.

” aunt chai … walahi, the Kano girls are crazy oooo, that girl almost killed me …

I looked at him blankly, although he did the wrong thing, but I didn’t dare reprimand the young scoundrel. He was sweet and he looked so innocent, as well as being the only brother she had. I just wished I could change him to be the responsible young man my father always wanted him to be …

As I stood there looking at it, my mind went back to my younger days as a teenager. I was roughly the same age as Eziashi Austine when I met Obinna, he was every woman’s dream … tall, handsome dark ebony with a smile that could melt even Jessica Korchia’s heart. I had instantly fallen in love with him.

Obinna did things most guys wouldn’t dare to do … she made me surprise meals, rinsed my clothes while I washed them, and even did my makeup every morning. His generosity knew no limits for me or my friends. I felt on top of the world … like Queen Elizabeth on Mount Everest …

Everything was fine and smooth between us until I missed my period … then I saw a brand new Obinna, a beast in the flesh of Prince Charming.
