It was a Friday night, and we had just wrapped up exams for the semester. I planned to sleep, because my sanity depended on it.
All those late nights, when I burned several midnight candles and slept off thinking about various definitions of medical terms. Yeah, I think I deserved a 12-hour sleep.
But guess who didn’t think so? My classmate. He talked my head off about having a sleepover at his place, together with some other classmates. That was the last thing I wanted to do in that moment. As my people would say, my tired was tired.
But he wouldn’t hear it. So after listening to him talk for what seemed like an eternity, I finally cracked and told him yes. So my friend and I hurriedly packed up an overnight bag and followed him with some of our other friends back to his place.
Apparently, the plan was to gist, eat and then rest. Personally, I planned to participate for a few minutes and then sneak off to sleep. I didn’t know that they had other plans. When we got to his place, we dropped our things, changed into pyjamas, and started the yap sessions.
Everything from the just-concluded exam down to the couples in our class was discussed. And then, out of nowhere, someone suggested we go to a bar nearby to “cool our heads”.
I immediately declined and made myself comfy on the bed, but they managed to drag me out. After locating a bar and settling down, we ordered drinks. Surplus, the guy who initially convinced me to attend the sleepover, ordered Tiger beer and goat meat peeper soup for me.
The drinks came, we downed our bottles and ordered some more. In no time, we had begun to laugh at random things, and the overall pitch had gotten louder.
Instantaneously, we picked up where we left off in the gist. I found out that our class rep was dating one of us. That was so funny and weird because I didn’t know him to be a lover boy type.
Suddenly, some of his past behaviours began to make sense. I’d occasionally catch both of them seated together on the bus that drove us to the hospital for clinical postings.
I’d also see them exchange glances and smiles every once in a while during lectures. It all made sense now. Who would have thought? Some more juicy secrets flowed that night, and we all laughed and had a blast.
We stayed until the bar was ready to close, and they had to tell us to leave😅😅. I was pleasantly surprised at how much fun I had that night with my classmates, some of whom I had never spoken to socially.
We eventually found our way back to his place, and we still danced to some music before finally retiring for the night. I thoroughly enjoyed the night with them.
