I'm this person who always gives the benefit of doubt to people, I mean, if I don't have any reasons to think of you in some negative way, I won't. I tend to see the beauty in everyone, until otherwise becomes the case. So I had this mindset when I got into the university and loved everyone as they came, male and female. Infact I vibed more with guys you know, not in a bad or promiscuous way but in a friendly way.
I had male friends who lived in the same hostel with me, who would even fall asleep in my room, till midnight and then I'd wake them up to go to their own room. These ones are more like brothers to me even now, long after leaving the university. I had a very close departmental friend too whom everyone thought I was dating, but, we seemed to each other like brother and sister, even down to this day. We never ever had canal knowledge of one another, neither did we ever think of it.
Don't get it wrong, the fact that I was free with these people didn't mean that I was loose, infact I once slapped a hostel mate when I was in 100 level for trying to kiss me. I can be brutal like that!
I then proceeded for youth service in Ibadan, Oyo State and met this Yoruba demon 😂, Femi, a corper as well. I thought this one was going to be like the people I was used to where I was coming from. We were friends and had laughed and joked a couple of times and I felt safe with him. I lived a bit at the outskirts and visited a dear female friend who lived in Bodija sometimes. This weekend she wasn't around and I said to visit Brother Femi this time after he invited me over.
He made dinner, we ate, joked and laughed until I fell asleep. This "demon" boy began to pester me at night, ah guy wetin dey sup, babe na you know I like you, let's do the do. That was when I knew I had finally fallen into the devils trap. Heiii God....2am, do I begin to scream? This silly boy didn't want to take no for an answer. Who would believe that this was never my intention of visiting? How was I this foolish? This was how I battled all night because he didn't let me rest and I didn't want to give in. A body I kept throughout the university would now go like that inside small youth service of 1 year. Lailai!!!
By 6, 6.30am, I excused myself from his house like an OS who had finished for the night. I was ashamed of myself, I won't lie. I blamed myself for taking everybody to be the same, never again after that experience though.
