Pleasure With Pain Part Six.

“Sorry, can you please shift a bit” the voice of this young lady brought me back to the scene, because i was lost in thought, as the sight of her made me wonder if she was a student to be on OAU campus or not. I adjusted my back-pack closer to me, giving her enough space to sit comfortably. Another
man came, and in no time, the bus was filled up. “E sanwo o” A man came to the window, telling us to pay, and we did, I just gave him 500, since that will save me the stress of waiting for change. The bus was ready to move, and it did move. I looked at my left, i saw ‘baba apari’ (bald old man), i looked at my right, i saw a damsel. “Should i start a conversation with this beautiful lady or just keep mute “I thought to myself, and concluded i was going to do the later.
So i just minded my own business, as i gently brought out the story book ‘Romeo and Juliet by William Shakespeare’ out of my backpack. I loved this story so much, though I’ve red it thrice already, i
don’t mind reading it again. As the sound of hooting vehicles and that of moving cars provided the ‘sound effect’ for my reading, I just focused, ignoring all other things. “So guys read this too?” I couldn’t believe it was the girl i wanted to form for that finally broke the silence. Well, whether i believe or not, Its true, and i had to reply her. “It’s not for girls only, so i see no reason why i can’t read it.” I answered. “So you are also going to resume in OAU?” She asked, When i heard the word ‘also’, i knew i cannot be more correct in my thoughts.

The girl:: Same here. With this your love for literature, you

must be in the arts and humanities

Me: At all, I’m in the sciences, in fact, I’m going in for

microbiology.

The girl: Are you serious? I’m going in for microbiology too.

Me: So, i just met my first departmental friend (I said

looking straight into her cat eyes), so whats the name of my

FDF?

The girl: What’s FDF?

Me: First departmental friend of course!

The girl: You are so funny. Anyways, the name is Moji and

you are. . .

Me: Dapo

Moji: Really? That’s my younger brothers name.

Me: That’s great! Anyway, its nice meeting you

Moji: Same here. . .

We continued the conversation, and we were just choosing topics at random. We talked about politics, the country, the music industry and lots of stuffs. I’ve discovered that when you have someone to talk to, journey seems to be faster. That was how i met my second mate, and my first
departmental friend. “But wait o, how come i haven’t met any guy?” I said to myself. Well, at the cafe, there were four guys waiting to do registration, it was only the girl i talked to and made friends with. “I have not even entered campus and I’m already behaving like a girl-freak, if i enter campus,
what will happen? When did i become like this? I wasn’t like this before!” I thought to myself
