I drove to Lekki art and crafts market. I was sad and I had cried my eyes out. I sat in my car for a moment. I didn't know why I drove here. I guess it's the beauty that radiates from the products; row of stores with unique home crafts,custom furnitures, gem stones, art works,shebra beads, chevron beads, wooven bags.. Here the African cultures leaves.
I couldn't go back home after leaving kenneth's house, I had cried so much like a jilted girlfriend. Like he said, we weren't even dating. I had gone to see him sad; I had to leave Nigeria, but I left his place miserable.I thought we could make plans on how we would save our "relationship" , I wanted to know if his father was sending him outside the country too.
Alas! He had no intention of having a relationship with me. He said he didn't want to lose a friend. It was the reason he had pleasured me at the hotel instead of sex. I didn't understand why he wasn't attracted to me.I was gobsmacked. And when he asked if i loved him, I was tongue-tied. Even i couldn't give a reply.
"Mikun, you don't want me like that. Maybe for sexual pleasures but you are not in love with me." the last thing he said before i stormed out of his room.
I felt i lost something. I didn't know what it was, I couldn't accept that i loved him either and i wonder why I wouldn't stop crying.
I stepped out of the car to window shop. I like the things here, I shop whenever my mum brings me here, but today i didn't feel like buying, just staring and smiling at the traders.
Then I sighted an acquittance; Olayinka the son of the corn seller. He was negotiating a custom craft. That's a luxury. I wonder why he wants one.
Hello, remember me ? I said interrupting his negotiation.
He turned back, trying to remember me, I doubt he would.
"Hey, you are the lady that patronize my mum." He finally said.
"Good afternoon. How's mum? I haven't been to that side in a while".. I said, starting a conversation.
"She's good . Thank you. And I am sure she misses you." He replied.
"You are also here to get some goods, i presume." He added.
"Yess," I said. I lied.
We talked a bit more, he noticed I had eyes bag but thought I didn't get enough sleep.I was glad for his assumption. i watched him negotiating. He was getting an art work for his boss for his birthday.
He had a startling look when i asked for his contact, I quickly added that i wanted to talk to his mum.
He was looking really good. More than the last time i saw him. I remembered, he had caught me before falling in front of their store, with his hands wrapped around my side boobs unintentionally i remembered how fluttered he was. He had look more embarrassed than I was. I volunteered to give him a ride but he declined.
I watched him go deeper into the stores, he wanted to get something for his mother too.
