I FELL IN LOVE - Episode 2
Wemmy got back to her lodge and collected her
key from Sophia, She showered and fix herself
something to eat. Emmanuel showed up later in
the evening looking tired.
“Don’t tell me you are just coming from your
supervisor’s house?”
“Yes, the man just released me"
“Let me get you something to eat”
“I’m not hungry we stop by In a restaurant on
our way back”
“Are u going home or you want to sleep over”
“I’ll sleep over” he replied
“Then you should call Feranmi, i really enjoyed
his company”
“I told you he’s a great guy, I really admire his
kind of person ever since he moved in last
semester”
He called Feranmi later, he thanked him and
informed him he won’t be coming home, he
passed the phone to his girlfriend who in turn
thank him as well.
Ever since that weekend, Wemmy always make
sure she spare little time to say hi to Feranmi
whenever she visited Emmanuel. They now relate
well, there was a day she ran into him in school
and they chatted for some minutes.
Feranmi got a call from his childhood friend,
Richard who informed him that his sister just got
admission into UI and he told his friend to send
her phone no, he promised to check on her. On
Friday evening, he called the number his friend
sent him.
“Hello this is Feranmi on the line, your brother’s
friend”
“Uncle Feranmi! She shouted gleefully”
"I’m happy to hear from you, my brother told me
you’d call”
“Yep, its been long I saw you, I doubt if I’ll still
recognize you” he said jokingly. Richard told me
you stay off campus, just text me the address”
“When are you coming”
“Are you at home now”
“Yes” she replied
“Then you’ll see me soon”
“It’s a lie! She said jumping with joy and the line
went off.

He alighted from the bike, and she was already
waiting for him in front of her lodge. She jumped
and hugged him tightly. He handed over to her
the things she brought for her.
“Thank you big brother”
“You are welcome little sis" he said teasingly.
They both went into her room where they gist
and he gave her loads of advice on academics,
social life on campus, boys and UI in general.
“Allow me take my leave now, I’ll check on you
during the week, at least let me take care of you
a bit before I graduate”
“Alright, but please Uncle Feranmi,before you
leave there’s someone I’d like you to meet, she’s
been like a big sister to me here, she’s in 500l
too, you need to thank her on my behalf”
She took him by the hand and led him to her
room she knocked at the door and she came out.
“Wemmy!”
“Feranmi!”
“You guys know each other” Sophia asked
pointing at both of them.
“What are u doing here” she asked
“So this is your lodge” he asked
They all entered into Wemmy’s room and there
they answered each other’s questions.
“Thank you for taking care of my little sis,she
told me so much about you”
“It’s nothing, we are once jambite too and I know
she needs a lot of care and attention”
“I like your room, it’s lady like”
“Thanks”. They all got talking for some minutes
before he left.
When he got home, he went straight to
Emmanuel’s room and downloaded everything
that happened to him and they laugh over it, its
really a small world indeed, its late already so he
retired to his room to sleep.
During the week, Feranmi payed Sophia a visit,
they chatted for a while and he stood to his feet
prepared to leave.
“Are u leaving already” she asked
“No, I want to check on Wemmy, I’ll come back
to your room before I leave”
Feranmi went to Wemmy’s room, as usual they
got talking again as if they’ve known each other
for ages.
“How’s your project going, hope your Supervisor
is not too hard on you like that of Emmanuel” he
enquired
“Not really but he’ll make you write one chapter
for like 10times before approval” she said and
they both laughed.
“Yours” she asked
“I guess I’m lucky with mine, he’s one of the
most simplest Lectures in my department”. He
checked his wrist wash and realize its getting
late. I’ll be leaving now he announced.
“Ok, thanks for stopping by, I’ll see you on
Saturday” she informed him.
“Please bring Sophia along”
“I will, goodnight”
“Goodnight” he said and hugged her. There is
this strong current that runs between them that
made them refrain from the hug immediately.
