C8 Yusuf

Ever since I gave Adnan a go ahead to court Fatimah, he had always been disturbing her with calls. I know I didn't love her but to tell you the truth I was already beginning to be jealous. Don't ask me why, I also didn't know!

On my part, however I couldn't quit smoking but I had minimised the amount of beer I used to consume. And about women, forgive me but I didn't really think I would stop as of now. If I ever had the chance, I would definitely do it.

Please don't blame me, blame my evil family. The more my father and sister put pressure on me, the temeritous I become. I didn't want this life but what could I do? I was already getting used to it, people should know this by now.

Yesterday was fresher's orientation day, and in the night a party was thrown in Eko Hotel. I was there and I had fun with lot of my friends except Adnan whom was somehow devout, and even more godfearing ever since he met Fatimah. Both of them didn't attend the party but Fatimah's friend was there. Yes, Qudrah... or what was that even her name? She was there and in my presence some guys got her very drunk and took her to the top floor.

Actually, no guy would see a girl like Qudrah in such a place and let her be. She looked so hot in her outfit. Wallahi the moment I saw her in the club I knew she would certainly be deflowered if she was still virgin. I was in the bar when she came with a smile and picked a conversation with me. We greeted and the next thing I told her was "Go home" but as stubborn as she was, she refused to adhere. So I left the bar with a bottle of beer because the more I looked at her; the more I felt horny. She was wearing an indecent outfit and I was literally scared of having her, what if Fatimah learnt I used her friend? She would never forgive me.

Fatimah was a girl I never met before, she was special and even though she didn't used to look sexy or hot in whatever dress she might be in she was still special to me and I didn't know why. Having Qudrah means infuriating Fatimah. The girl I had that night instead was a very young girl and I regretted it afterwards. It wasn't my fault though, she was the one that approached me while I was dancing with a bottle of beer in my hand. She asked me to give her the beer and I shook my head. "Girl, you are too young" I said going through her body with my eyes. She was so hot and had ample bosoms. Even God knew I loved big bosoms.

"I am 18!" She screamed due to the music that was booming in the hall. "Please, give me the..."

"Okey, okey!" I said handing the beer to her.

"Thank you" She took it to her fill and then dropped it on the floor. The next thing she began doing was acting weirdly, and that was how I took her to the top floor and did what I had in mind. It wasn't with her consent because she wasn't in her senses, this means I had raped her. For the first time in my life I had raped someone. I was so sad that I dropped N50,000 cash close to her and left.

The following day I couldn't wake up in time so I missed Dr Marwan's lecture. I had to go to his office and explain myself to him and when I did, he told me only those that went to the party missed his lecture and he would deal with them. He had given a test and that would be his only test for the semester. I was shocked, I implored him but he said nothing will make him give another test. I was stuck there when Qudrah and some 100level students came as well. "All of you, get out of my office!" He said.

We left his office looking at each other like owls, 8 girls and 3 boys with me included. Immediately we stepped out of his office I saw Fatimah and Adnan waiting outside, they weren't happy as well. Fatimah glared at me before embracing Qudrah who was already in tears.

"Man, I am sorry" Adnan said embracing me.

"I fucked up again" I whispered into his ear.

"Yeah, I know" He said averting from me.

Just then, Dr Marwan came out of his office and yelled at us to leave the premises before he lose his temper on us. Well, we did as he said with Fatimah glaring at me as if I was the one that invited her friend to the party. We headed to the rest area and sat there together with other students. Some left the faculty while some hanged around. I sat on the same bench with Adnan while Fatimah sat with Qudrah.

"Did he invited you there?" Fatimah asked Qudrah, I knew the HE she was talking about so I wasn't confused at all. "Was he the one?"

"No," Qudrah sniffed. "It was my own choice"

"Okey" Fatimah suspended the anger in her face and continued. "Now I think it is clear to you as to why school partying isn't good, it was even a simple test. He only asked us the definition of Business Administration kawai"

Qudrah didn't stop crying, I knew she wasn't crying because of the test we both missed but because of what happened in the club which, presently, only me knew about it. I only stayed mute while Fatimah kept on coddling her...

"Just keep praying, maybe he will give another test next week. Crying won't solve anything, as you can see some people aren't even worried at all" Fatimah glanced at me. "Although they are literally used to failing their courses already..."

I didn't say anything to her despite knowing she was ironically referring to me. Yes, she had every damn reason to hate me and say whatever she wish. After all, I was a bad guy or wasn't I? She might've heard a lot about me from people or even from her boyfriend, Adnan. Was he even her boyfriend? Whatever the case might be I would deal with him later.
