The devil who loved me

There was a knock on the door again..Timi went to open the door…

Timi : Ah Jafar howfar?

Jafar : i dey…

Me : Jafar…sorry for the Aji….

he shrugged it off…

Jafar : please call the other guys, we have to talk…

Me : Abayomi and Toun?

Jafar : Yes.

Abayomi and Toun walked into the room with the same unreadable look. While Toun came to sit on the bed wit me, the three guys stood.

Abayomi : So Jafar, i am thinking of stepping down…

Me : yes…

Jafar : Timi, you are with them?

Timi : nope

Toun : Me too, afterall by next week it will be all over..

Jafar : I have not been completely honest with you guys…

i didnt like the sound of that, nor the grin on Timi's face…

Abayomi : please go on…

Jafar : You guys are an innocent pun to a bigger puzzle. The VC of this school,was appointed by the last govt. After the next state election, there is a deal with National to disrupt school activities and inturn make the VC culpable. Eli is the link between the government and National. The government puppet is the present DVC, Prof Agbaide… he is eargerly waiting.

Abayomi : But the governor can just get a new Vc…

Jafar : i said the govt, not the governor. The people around the governor want to milk the school…

Me : Why are you against them?…so sponsoring is was just for face value…?

Jafar : The DVC is among the founding members of Eli's group…We are fightinh for our survival…if they win….we are finished in this school…

Me : Jafar, Eli said he bam"ed you…why are you guys in seperate groups now?

Jafar : True, he was the one that initiated me…but he broke our creed…and started corner bamming people.

Toun : what is corner bamming?

Jafar : Initiating people on his own, without permission from the congress.. He was booted out. He joined his present group…his lust for blood and violence sped him up the ranks…

Me : Hmmmmm

Jafar : If you guys wanna step down i understand..but you will still be protected till this ish is over…

Abayomi : Wow…ok…we will call you to let you know whats up…

Jafar : i will be glad

Toun : i am sorru about Aji…

She came to hug him….ok….Toun is now a hugger too…

Jafar : please be on the low…will see you guys later…

He was walking out, i quicky followed him…

Jafar : Sparrow is ok yh?

Me : Yes, it is relieving to know that he is nearby…

we walked to his car when i noticed he was alone…

Me : Why are you alons, where is Uche and the rest of your guys?

Jafar : They are in Aiyegbami, this is not the time to be on the open… Its dangerous…

Me : Are u crazy! so you came alone! what if you are attacked?…what if you are ambushed…!

I didnt know where the tears came from, but my eyes were filled…He held me and used his sleeves to wipe my eyes…

Me : i dont want you to die…

Jafar : I wont die…

Me : You better not…

Jafar : Or?

Me : dont joke with me young man!

Then we started laughing, i still had tears in my eyes….i didnt even know why. Once again i watched him drive off…i ran back to the room and fell on the bed…Toun asked me what happened, but i didnt answer her, i didnt want her to see my tears…I must have slept off, cuz when i woke up, it was getting dark..

Toun was watching Disney channel, i wanted to go pee, i was still feeling sad…my phone rang….
