CAN'T SEEM TO FIND MY PEN!

      Written by E PLUS The Storyteller,✍️

 

So, you are at that point where it looks all bleak, you are pondering over your lack of motivation to write, or to even put down a word🤷 you're literarily lost, and it feels like you can't seem to find your pen! WHAT NEXT?

 

 

He was my best friend, or so he taught! Or else How can you explain the outrage and uncontrollable emotions I had muddled up in my head, all in the name of vengeance...

 

   Indeed, the 'devil walks in the dark!' and works hand in hand with the notorious

'Green eyed monster'.

 

I have been a victim of exploitation and injustice all my life, and this accounts for the roller coaster of emotions! But I know, It wasn't intentional, I just..., I just...

 

  Well, it all happened that fateful night, my best friend(Najite), had called me up for a concert- he wanted us to go and see one of the famous act of all times, he was so excited. Then I had the perfect plan(well, almost perfect) that would change everything, for the worse!

 

I had always thought that being a victim of failed relationships was Najite's fault, all my ex girlfriends ended up with him! 

 

They(all) wanted him, I can't say what the attraction was, but he had a way with ladies...  So, despite all his claims to be innocent and oblivious of all the happenings, I never forgave him! I was only counting the days and minutes, I would actually have my pound of flesh!

So, you can imagine how elated I was, when the opportunity, came knocking on my door. Without any hesitation, I obliged him, and got prepared.

 

"Obus, I don near your house o! You go come out sharp! Sharp! We are almost late for the concert, abeg Na front seat I want make we stay." Najite exclaimed, over the phone.

 

"No wahala! I don ready" I responded, and the call ended.

 

Few minutes later, Najite called, and in no time I was out of the house. Hidden in my pocket was a weapon, I intended to use. I had made up my mind to deal with Najite- he was having such a good life despite all that he had done to me! I wanted vengeance! As I stepped into the car, Najite was all smiles.

 

"How far?" He asked.

 

"I dey." I replied.

 

"Oya nau! This is it o! One of the biggest concert of all times!" Najite said, excitedly.

 

"Na so!" I responded, while I reached out for the weapon in my pocket, and immediately Najite started the car, I pounced on him without mercy!

 

Needless to say, I was shaken, just seeing the brutality I had inflicted on him.

Najite, never made it! And before long, I was arrested, and locked up, behind bars.

I have spent half of my entire sentence in prison, thus far and I must say:

 

THE GREEN EYED MONSTER led me to my actions, and I should have been wise enough not to have given in- nothing justifies my actions, I truly regret it!
