MY DESIRE
EPISODE 13
JOSHUA’S POV
On Monday I went to Mr Kunle Coker’s office to sign the deal, he was so happy to be awarding the contract to my company.
We signed some papers and he issued me the cheque of a 100 million dollars, my hands were stiff when immediately I held the tiny little white piece of paper called cheque in my hand.
MR COKER
I hope you guys will work and bring me a God result.
JOSHUA
most definitely sir…. I really appreciate this sir.
MR COKER
common it’s nothing, I told you before that I admire you alot.
JOSHUA
thanks sir.
We shared a gla-ss of wine to celebrate the signing of the deal before I left.
Immediately I left Mr Kunle’s office and entered my car, a texi ma-ssage entered my phone…. I check it, it was a ma-ssage from the person I love so much.
I turn the car around and immediately drove straight to the airport….. I saw him, standing alone with his bag beside him…. I came down from my car and rushed to hug him… he hug-ged me back excitedly too.
wait, you guys think I’m making a mistake by saying “him” ? of course not, I know exactly what I’m talking about.
I’m a ga-y , I’m attra-cted to men, that’s why non of my staff has ever seen me with a woman, that’s why I kept ignoring amanda like I don’t know how she feels about me.
I wasn’t mo-lest ed as a child, no form of abuse whatsoever…. I just found out that I like men, it all started from my SS2
There was this new house mate we got in my ss2 that looked very handsome, the way he talks, the way he carries himself…. there was no way you wouldn’t fall for him.
Our school once you enter senior cla-ss, you will be transfer to the boarding house…. the only time we had to go home is when we have holiday.
So back to my story, tommy caught my attention the first day he was transferred to our school, and luckily for me they gave us the same room, we had to share one room.
Tony wasn’t friends with me, he made friends with almost every one in the boarding house, including our other room mate James…. but he nevt spoke to me.
This continued for a whole term, the next term when we came back to school, he suddenly became friendly with me… most times he sleeps on me my bed.
You know that feeling you get when you like someone? I liked Tony in some kind of weird way but I couldn’t differentiate it, maybe it was love, maybe it was infatuation that would soon go away, or I just liked him because his a cute guy…. middle of the term I couldn’t control how I felt about him again, then it was becoming clearer to me that what I feel for him isn’t likeness that will just go away… it was a serious feelings.
I tried to keep my feelings in check, sometimes when he sleeps on my bed I felt like ki-ss ing him… but the fear of teachers finding out held me back.
So one night, as usual he slept on my bed, it was cold, I laid very close to him that I could feel his fresh breathe entering my nose….. I was so tempted to ki-ss him, his eyes were closed so u thought he was sleeping…. I brou-ght my li-ps closer to his and almost planted a ki-ss on it…. but the thought of hurting my mum crossed my mind, what if Tony report me to the teacher and they send for my mother?
will she survive it after losing her other son which happened to be my twin?
I started to withdraw my head back but Tony pulled me by the ne-ck gently and ki-ss ed me pa-ssionately for a while then he pulled away to stare at my face.
TONY
don’t tell me you are a coward, I didn’t want take the first time because I was trying to give you the chance to he my boyfriend… but I ki-ss ed you first so I’m the boyfriend, you are my girlfriend… you belong to me now, I don’t want to see you messing around with any guy or girl.
I was shocked and happy at the same time, why was I happy ki-ss ing a guy? I have no fuc-king idea but I was greatly happy.
I couldn’t say anything, he pulled me closer and ki-ss ed me again….. because we didn’t want the other students to judge us and make us look like devil with great horns we decided to keep our relationship a secret.
No one knew we were dating, not even James our roommate, that one that sleeps like a bag of sand, if you take him from the bed and kept outside he won’t even know.
Tony told me I was the third guy he has being in a relationship with, he said he ignored me the first term because I was entering his eyes and he saw me like someone that would ki-ss and tell so he just held himself…. but during the holiday he couldn’t stop thinking of me, that he missed me so much that he wish he knew where I live so he could come visit me.
Tony and I didn’t have se-x while at school, we couldn’t, he said it would hurt like hell so we should wait till the school is on vacation so we could do it using quality pain reliever.
First time we had s-ex , he gave me the opportunity to hit him from the back because he didn’t want to hurt me…it was the next time that he fuc-ked me, yeah he was right, it was painful very painful and if we had done that in school it would have broken me down.
You can judge me as you like, I don’t care…. tony and I dated for two years and half before his parents sent him outside the country to further is studies.
It wasn’t easy being along without Tony, he was my first love and I loved him so much… that was why I worked times two, I studied ha-rd to gain scholarships to study abroad but unfortunately for me they didn’t pick me…. the next day I tried again and I was finally given scholarship to study abroad but it was in Canada not in London…. that was how tony and I parted ways.
two years after I got to Canada I decided to give a relationship a trial, but it wasn’t with a girl, it was with a guy name Scott…. Scott liked since my first year but I didn’t care because I was still in love with Tony my first and only love.
Scott and I only dated for just a year, he did everything to keep the relationship but I wasn’t feeling it so I had to take a walk….. i didn’t go into another relationship until I met Anderson, the one I’m staring at his face right now….. he looked so much like my first love Tony, they way Tony spoke, if I didn’t know better I would think Tony and Anderson were blood related….. I loved him the first day I saw him, it’s being two years and we are still strong and so much in love.

JACK’S POV
I called JJ to know if he would he chance for me to bring my girlfriend over for him to see, since he has been wanting to meet with her…. but he told me he wasn’t available
JOSHUA
Anderson is in town, I’m spending some time with him.
JACK

JOUSHA

JACK
alright, I will leave you two to enjoy yourself and catch up .
JOUSHA
thanks…. please do take care of the house while I’m away.
JACK

I ended my call and dropped my phone on the bed…. my babe stare at me for sometime before she spok
JOY
babe, who was that on the phone?
JACK
that’s JJ
JOY
oh, so are we still going to see him later today?
JACK
hold that thought babe, JJ won’t be free to see us today…. his girlfriend is in town so he would be spending some days there.
I could see how her eyes popped open in amazement and shock.
JOY
so as you boss say form holy, holy him too dey knack? as some point I thought that guy want to join Father or something….. his the most talked about on social media but no one knows who his babe is.
Well, she’s right aside me that is aware of who my boss is dating I can swear that no other person knows… he trust me so much that was why he told me.
JOY
have you met his girlfriend before? is she pretty? is she from a wealthy home? oh lucky girl, she’s dating a boss and a big a-sset.
Why does her word annoy me so much? was she wishing to be his girlfriend or what?
JACK
And what is the meaning of that? are wishing to be his girlfriend or what? hope you know I wasn’t a boss before you accepted to date me…. you can still break up with me so you can be with him…. that’s if he will even look at you….. ru-bbish.
I got up and carried my shirt, picked my phone and car keys and left angrily…. she know better than to run after me…. whenever I’m angry I like to cool down my head before I reason with you.
As I drove throu-ghthe street of Abuja I kept thinking why my boss had to be a ga-y of all things he could he.
why was he attra-cted to men instead of woman? how can one even like his fellow man when they are millions of pretty women out there for him to choose.
I found myself driving into his compound, I must have been so lost in thought to have come to his house even when I wasn’t needed.
I parked my car and came down, Sonia was cutting the flowers, I didn’t know she could do that too.
SONIA
good morning jack
JACK
morning, its actually afternoon…. why are you doing this?
(I said pointing at the flowers)
SONIA
I felt so bored inside so I decided to do it, I didn’t even know time had gone like this.
JACK
I’m surprised you did it very well, were you a Gardner in your first life?
(I joked and she laughed)
I was glad she found my joke funny, she suddenly remembered something.
SONIA
that remains me, I made sandwich, it’s still very hot, do you care for?
JACK
I love sandwich either in the morning or evening, it’s already afternoon….i can’t have it again… but thanks
SONIA
oh, I see… so what would you like? I will cook it for you.
JACK
actually right now I’m okay, but when I’m hungry I will tell you..
She nodded her head and returned back to what she was doing.
JACK
you should get some rest, I don’t want you to fall sick, beside this sun is too hot.
SONIA
I will soon round up… I’m a strong woman, I have never fallen sick in my life
(she said proudly)
JACK
(I laughed)
I believe you… sha leave the sun please.
SONIA
okay I will, but believe me I’m not lying.
JACK
I didn’t say you were lying.
SONIA
but I see doubt in your eyes.
JACK
trust me you don’t know what you are seeing.
I told her and headed inside, not long she came inside too, she didn’t talk to me, she went straight up to her room, I guess to freshen up because the next time she came downstairs she was looking fresh and breathe taking
SONIA
I wanted to know what JJ would like for lunch
JACK
about that, you shouldn’t worry, you can cook what we will eat, JJ isn’t coming home for days.
SONIA
why? did he travel?
JACK
his in town, his just spending some time with his babe who has been away for a while.
SONIA
oh I see….. but, why didn’t he bring her here so I could cook them a cook meal.
JACK
I don’t know…. please excuse me
Anytime people thinks his dating a woman it annoys me so much…. my girlfriend thought she’s unlucky because she didn’t land with the boss, but got to date me the employee, now Sonia wondering why he didn’t bring his girlfriend over…. if his so ashamed of showing the world his a ga-y then why go into it? I have tried all my best to see if I could help him, but every single thing I tried failed.
JOSHUA POV
I and Anderson stopped at an expensive eatery to get some food stuffs before we headed to his house, immediately we entered his living room he dropped the bag in his hand and started to ki-ss me, I missed him so much, I dropped the stuffs I had too and started to ki-ss him back….. soon the ki-ss got so intense that we ended up having a pa-ssionate love making.
ANDERSON
(Breathing high and wide after climax)

JOSHUA

ANDERSON
Hope you didn’t cheat on me while I was away!
JOSHUA
common babe, you know I will never do something as horrible as that to you, to us.
ANDERSON
I trust you, just wanted to be sure.
JOSHUA
I’m hungry, let’s go eat something.
ANDERSON
I still want around round babe
JOSHUA

ANDERSON

I came down from the bed and wore my boxer, ki-ss ed his li-ps quickly and headed downstairs…… he joined me soon wearing a rope without boxer in it.
JOSHUA
