Bimpe was tired of running from the kitchen to the toilet and back to her room, all in the name of dodging her brother. This was to avoid another sex escapade from happening between them.
Her brother arrived a week ago.
She tried to convince him to go stay at their uncle's place but he wouldn't budge. She tried convincing her uncle too. She told him it was unsafe for two opposite sex to stay in the same room. But none of them was getting the information she was indirectly passing across.
It was a Sunday evening and she had just finished cooking dinner. Her brother was nowhere to be found and she was trying to sort out things for the next day's class.
She wished he would just get himself a girl. Maybe that would stop him from lusting after her.
He had been acting all gentlemanly since he arrived and Bimpe couldn't help but feel bad for the kind of shit he has indulged them into. All thanks to their parents.
Yes. Her parents were to be blamed.
At the age of 25, Ayoade informed his parents of his intentions to marry Chidinma, the Okrika seller's daughter. A neighbor in the market where Bimpe's mother shop was located in Abeokuta.
His parents were hysterical and they yelled at him. They called him all sort of name. They called him an idiot for making the wrong decision at the wrong time.
"A wrong decision of marrying the woman you love? Or a wrong timing of marrying early as a man at the age Of 25?" Bimpe couldn't help but ask herself.
Chidinma was a pretty girl of 18 and was Salamat and Bimpe's, classmate. When Bimpe got to know of the relationship between Chidinma and her brother, she supported them wholeheartedly. Chidinma was a lovely and calm girl. Besides, her brother's happiness was all that mattered.
That was two years ago.
Bimpe could vividly recollect all that happened. She watched her brother wallow in depression. She heard his cries in the middle of the night when their parents were already fast asleep, after having overworked themselves in the daytime. It used to pierce her heart hearing the anguish, hurt, and pain in the cries of a grown-up man like her brother.
Her parents were against the marriage. They claimed he was still young but Bimpe knew there was more to it than being young. They were against inter-tribal marriage.
Her brother was emaciated out of depression.
And alas! Chidinma and her father disappeared from Abeokuta, all of a sudden. No one knew where they went to. Some claimed they relocated to their hometown. But Bimpe knew the truth. Her parents were responsible.
That was the end of her brother's love life and the beginning of her troubles.
She was always there to pacify him. It wasn't easy getting over the pain of not being with the woman he wanted.
Then, he began to seek happiness in having sex with Bimpe.
Initially, Bimpe couldn't deny the fact that she enjoyed sex with her brother. But the reality of their atrocities dawned on her when she realized she was pregnant.
Pregnant for her brother.
Her brother used to be a sweet boy but she was beginning to hate him. Seeing how gentlemanly he has been acting since he arrived from Abeokuta, the affection, pity, and love she had for him came rushing back.
If only he would just let her be so she could have a boyfriend. Her sexual relationship with her brother facilitated her break up with her first boyfriend. The one who took her virginity.
Idris was a good lover. His foreplays and kisses were heavenly. She loved him and still loves him.
Coming to the university and seeing Saleem brought back memories of him. Saleem was his look-alike but Idris was shorter. Now, she found herself falling helplessly, irresistibly in love with Saleem.
She was willing to give it all it takes, just to have him. The mere thoughts of him arouse her. She couldn't help it. She just wanted to have a feel of him. But Salamat was in the way. That was why she devised a plan by deceiving them about her withdrawal from the department. This will enable her to take them off-guard. The number one plan was already executed.
The number two plan was to ensure their paths do not cross for the main time. The number three plan was to gain Saleem's trust and the fourth plan was to strike.
Strike hard and deep, so she could achieve her aims. It was going to be a sweet show, she smiled to herself.
"What are you thinking of that is making you grin so wide like you've just won a lottery?" Ayoade asked, as he came in and jerked her out of her reverie.
Bimpe frowned at the intrusion and said, "Nothing."
"Hope you are not thinking of a guy?" He demanded but she was silent. He gasped and moved close to her. "Bimpe, you have a boyfriend?"
"I wish I do but it seems your abominable acts towards me are pushing all of them away."
He heaved a sigh of relief and smiled. "Am I not enough for you? You don't need any of them. I am here for you, my Bimbim", he said affectionately.
That was the nickname he gave her and she loved it. He knew she loved it and he uses it to his advantage.
"Ayoade, don't start. I don't have strength for any trouble tonight" Bimpe uttered resting her hands on her jaw.
"I am trouble? Tell me you don't enjoy it when I feel you up?"
"You are disgusting. Have you no shame? I am your sister for crying out loud", she yelled furiously.
"I know but I love you and I know you love me too. As long as I have you, I don't need any other woman. You satisfy me."
"Ayoade", she said calmly while trying to control her anger
"I love the way you call my name," He said with a smirk.
This increased her angry and she shouted, "I am your sister for crying out loud. How can you derive pleasure from sleeping with me?"
He used his hands to cover her mouth and frowned at her. "Do you want the neighbors to hear you?"
Bimpe tried talking but it came out as a mumble. He pushed her gently to the bed, with his hands still on her mouth, and carefully undressed her with the other hand.
She succeeded in removing his hand from her mouth. "So you know this is wrong but you keep doing it."
"Just shut up and enjoy", he smirked and placed his hands firmly back on her mouth.
She struggled to get out of his hold but he was stronger. He admired her nude body and kissed her all over.
Then, he was lost in a world of pleasure as he was oblivious to the disgustful look on the face of his sister.
