That
night was a fun one…
After
the movies, we went to a bar. Kendra spent some real cash which didn’t even
help matters…where she had gotten the money was all I could think of…
Until
I was drunk…Yes, we had much to drink but luck was on our side. We were able to
get home safe.
Morning
came and i was feeling all hungover.
I
got out of bed one time to pee but didn’t make it back into my bed. I found
myself sprawled at the foot of the bed when I finally woke up. I smelt really
bad so I showered immediately, then stopped by Kendra’s room.
She
was awake but still in bed. I jumped into bed with her.
“What?
Can’t you give a sister her bed? She asked jokingly.
“Maybe
if the sister gives a sister her space sometimes.” I replied.
“That
doesn’t even make sense.”
We
laughed…
“Last
night was wow.” I sang, when the laugh ended. “The movie, the expensive drinks…”
Kendra
sat up abruptly. “And this is the point where you ask about the money again?”
she interrupted, in the same tone as me.
“I
wasn’t even thinking of that.” I said, in defense. Then I sat up too and faced
her.”But now that it’s been brought up…”
I continued, giving her a questioning look.
She
met me gaze for gaze and it became a battle
of the stares that only lasted five seconds. She gave in when I didn’t back
down.
“Fine.”
She said, looking away but kept quiet after that.
“Fine
what?”
“Fine,
Yemi gave it to me.” She finally said, doing her best to avoid my eyes.
“Yemi?
Why?” I said, thoughtfully. Then, “Did you sleep with him?”
“No.”
she said, instantly…in aloud voice that didn’t convince me at all.
“He
has a girlfriend.” I continued.
“I
said no…”
Then
guiltily, “I mean, not in that context.”
“What
are you saying Kendra, you said you’d never…”
“They
broke up!”
That
shut me up. Then, “But they were really into each other.” I said in a small
voice.
“I
know…but I guess it’s like they say, nothing lasts forever.”
“So
where do you come in?” I asked, trying to find out the whole story before any
talks. I mean, it’s not bad to look out for your friend. Kendra has always
looked out for me. I felt like it was my turn to look out for her. And yes, I know
where she might want to come in, I mean Kendra has been crushing on the Yemi
guy since forever and had watched him move from one girl to the other all the
while dying a little, inside. The last girl as I had just found out didn’t even
last six months.
Really,
where does Yemi, giving her money come into the story?
I
prodded her and she told me everything.
Yemi
and his girl broke up…he came to drink at the bar…she tried to comfort him but
he got drunk anyways…she drove him home…promised to check on him the next day…actually
did…one thing led to the other and she became the comfort.
And
then he gave her money…for being the
comfort is what I couldn’t help thinking. When did all that happen? I tried
to wrap it around my head without judging her, after all, I had my own Daniel
situation.
Just
then I remembered the trip with Daniel. I ‘d not told Kendra yet…How did I forget I asked myself. I
decided to tell her…
“He
asked me to come over this evening.” Kendra’s voice drew me out of my thoughts.
“No,
you’re not going.” I said without thinking.
“Chill
out girl, it’s a get together…I was going to go with you.
“Now
we’re going.” I blurted out again and we both laughed.
“But
promise me one thing.” I continued.
“Yeah?”
