The Bet...

Sup guys, did you miss me?...probably not yet aye..no sweat, soon enough. So yeah I left you guys the other day to go coach my soccer game, I just had to come brag. Uhmmm we won 17-2, I mean total domination. I had to tell my kids to stop scoring after a while. Had a blast tho. Felt like Phill Jackson there for a sec. I’ll try to tape the next game we play and put it up.

So uhmm yeah my lil story, where was i…Actually before I do continue, I want to bring back the last statement Kolade made before I got off the phone…"well I heard that Wunmi has a boyfriend, she’s even engaged…he’s an older guy, apparently everybody knows about him and think its wrong that you’re messing with her”

To anyone else, this might not be a big deal, but for someone trying to clean up his reputation, this is terrible news. See I have a past, history that suggests that im not to be trusted, Somehow I always end up in the wrong place at the wrong time with the wrong girl. I’m usually never apologetic about it, but two of those cases were a different good friends’ girl… both times were different kinds of messy.

One story?
Well in what was one of the most intense moments of my life (at the time) I had to look Tony in the eye and tell him that I slept with his ex, that he obviously still cared about. The look of disappointment in his face really cut deep, I felt so dirty and so low. He didn’t get mad, not animated…He looked at my face as I looked at everything else but his, all he said was ‘why?’…I thought about reminding him about ‘The bet’….but it just felt silly.

The Bet?
Well I had just gotten out of a 1 yr relationship with Tola after she caught me talking up her friend on tape at her birthday party (more about that later) and we were still at that stage where getting back together was still a possibility so things were a bit murky. I meet Remi at a party, ok face, banging body…e.t.c. we flirt hard, back n forth..i run into her every once in a while and the flirting never stops, it got to one of those points where it was obvious that I should make a move, but I stalled cus I wanted to make sure Tola and I were completely done.

Now while I’m stalling, Kolade takes it upon himself to ‘hook Tony up’ with Remi. Now this was a bit of cockiness on my part, cus I coulda stopped it early, but I really felt like he’d have no chance (last time I ever underestimated any of my friends ever again) with her. I saw them chatting, her smiling and flirting back but I still kept my cool….Tony comes to meet me to ask for a pen to get her number (no cell phones back then J), still I doubted. To cut the long story short, they start dating and after Tola heard all the other stories about who I cheated on her with, she said she’d only get back with me over her dead body….so basically, I was assed out.

A yr later, Tony and Remi hit hard times, they break up but remain on speaking terms. Nothing big. You know, life goes on type stuff. So Tony, Yemi and I are hanging out and somehow the convo comes up about Tony being into Tola long before she and I dated, but I ended up beating him out...
Tony: I guess that makes things 1-1 between us (yeah we were quite young and silly)
Me: huhn?
Tony: I couldn’t get Tola and you couldn’t get Remi

Lol ok this probably wouldn’t have hit as hard as it did if Yemi didn’t ‘ooooooooohhhhhhh’ as hard as he did.
Me: lol, what are you talking about, I coulda gotten Remi, I just left her for you when I saw how interested you were
Tony *laughing real Hard*: nah mehn, you couldn’t have gotten her, trust me I know this. I know everything that went down. She said she didn’t even look at you like that.

More ‘ooooooooooohhhhhhhhhh’s from Yemi.

Me: lol, whats funny is that I can get that now if I wanted
Tony: its not possible.
At this point, Yemi has gotten past the ‘ooooohs’ and aaahhhhs’ he is literarily on the floor laughing.

A couple months later, I run into Remi at a party, we start talking about general stuff and all of a sudden she’s like ‘do you ever wonder how it would have been if we end up dating?’ I coulda taken the high road here n said ‘nope’ but I didn’t…that question started a whole string of inappropriate exchanges between us and the next thing I knew, she was riding home with me, in my room, in my bed….

I wasn’t able to answer Tony’s question…’why?’ cus the reason I thought I had just wasn’t good enough, we sat down quiet for a long time…I’d never seen him like that. I realized then that as bad as I felt when he called me out, I should have let it slide, the one thing every man should have is extreme pride and confidence in his girlfriend or ex and I took that away from him.

Tony and I worked things out, and probably got closer than we’d ever been, but the potential for disaster was big enough for me to learn my lesson and stay away from any girl my friend’s been with, for a while atleast, but that’s another story and im sooo done for now.

Gotta go back to work..:)
Later guys.

Love at First Sight

Its Saturday morning and I've been up since six. I haven’t been able to drink, so its almost pointless going out on Fridays anymore. I'm sitting here watching Steven Seagal movies on tnt…and im phasing in and out. Obviously, they’re not exactly attention grabbers. It's funny, I keep thinking about all the girls I've ever dated, which one of them I shared the best sex with, the first one I fell in love with..e.t.c.

Love, lol…yeah I know a little about it. I remember the first time I fell in love. It was almost at first sight, even if I didn’t know it then. I remember the moment like it was yesterday. I saw her, Wunmi, walk into a party with her friends, she was 5 ft 4, 115 lbs tops, beautiful caramel skin and her lips specially made for me…her friends were also beautiful but I swear I didn’t notice. All I could see was her, all I wanted to see was her. Right then and there I joked with Steve that I had found my wife.

Usually I'm not big on going to talk to a girl in the midst of her friends (especially naija girls and their fronting), but I had to make an exception in this case, surprisingly, she was welcoming. After a couple of my sweet words, flirts here n there…we exchange numbers and that’s where this ordeal began.

The next couple of months would be some of my most ‘caking’ moments ever. Wunmi and I got incredibly close, almost inseparable. She wanted to spend all her time with me, and vice versa. I’d skip classes to be with her, she’d call off work to be with me… we couldn’t keep our hands off each other.

I remember the first time we had…well sex?...she was over my place, we’re watching a movie and one thing leads to another we’re making out..her clothes off, mine follow. I’m getting ready to put my condom on when she stops me. She kisses my lips, my neck, couple kisses on my chest, then my stomach..she kisses my pelvic area..my hearts beating fast. She grabs IT…stops and looks at me..smiles and proceeds to give me the best head I've ever had…for 2 minutes that is, since that’s how long it took for me to ‘arrive’....unfortunately I wasn’t able to get back up to have the actual sex. It was quite embarrassing, but she made me feel ok. We cuddled for the rest of the night. Lets not get it twisted..i got plenty other opportunities and I "Hit it, Hit it, Hit it like I couldn’t miss."

On this beautiful Friday, same routine..she was at my place, we’re watching a movie, she’s laying on my chest, my arms around her, staring at her like I've never seen anything so beautiful. My phone rings, its Kolade, one of the boys (you’ll hear more of them as the stories come along), he’s like "yo I heard some stuff, I had to tell you…he never starts a convo like this, so he’s got my full attention.."whats up?" I ask…."well I heard that Wunmi has a boyfriend, she’s even engaged…he’s an older guy, apparently everybody knows about him and think its wrong that you’re messing with her"….I'm speechless. "I’ll call u back"…I hang up the phone and look at her…my hearts beating, I've never been in this position before…I'm stuck. So I call her "Wunmi….."…

Oops, sorry guys, I have to go to my game, im coaching the first and second grade soccer team of my district…I promise I’ll continue as soon as I get a chance.
Laters folks.

Introductions - This is me

My first post:). Ppl say Blogging is cheap therapy. well, we'll find out soon enough...I'm going to tell my stories, as i rememver them, as i see fit. im going to tell the truth and nothing but the truth. Hate me or Love, to be honest, im hoping for the latter.

Before i start, i need to put a discaimer up. Im not a writer, im not going to be structured, i'll use ellipses where i should use commas...it might be annoying at first but hopefully you'll get over it.

My name is wole, last of 7 kids, born and raised in kaduna, My parents were a lil more than slightly above middle class. Lol we werent stinking Rich, but i got everything i ever wanted. Eventually i moved to the states at age 14. Lame as can be, i was retardedly shy, incredibly small (5'4 100 lbs), black as night and just really awkward. But through a whole series of events, i was able to come out of that shell to become the person i am today. Some will say a good man, some probably indifferent and most will call me bad, very bad...But i maintain that i am just misuderstood.

...So with all that said. i'd like to welcome you to my world
Enjoy!
