I met Femi on my way to work February 2017. I was running late so in desperation I joined Palmgroove/Onipan bus. My office is at Surulere. When it was time to pay I stretched my hand to pay but the conductor said someone at the front has paid for me, I looked and saw a handsome dark skinned man turn his head and smiled at me, I didn't know whether to smile back at him or say something, instead I nodded my head like agama lizard.
I came down at Palmgroove instead of the last bus stop because I felt I have a better chance at getting Ojuelegba bus from there, I noticed the man at the front seat also came down from the bus, I walked towards him and said THANK YOU!
I felt uncomfortable after all I can afford to pay for my fare. He introduced himself, I did same, he told me what he does for a living etc, a bus came and we both entered, he paid again, at Ojuelegba we alighted, exchanged numbers and went our separate ways as I proceed to Bode Thomas.
He called me a day later, we talked for hours, that was the beginning of his daily calls. Weekly we meet for lunch at a fast food joint along Adeniran Ogunsanya street, he seemed like a nice guy so a month later I agreed to visit him at his house in Ogba. His apartment is so neat I was impressed, I stayed for two hours then we decided to go have pepper soup at a nearby joint then I left for home.
My third visit I insisted I cook he agreed so I made him Jollof rice, chicken and fried plantain, we enjoyed it. We watched a comic movie, played Scrabble and laughed all through. He insisted I sleep over, after a little argument I greed. A few minutes to 10pm I told him I need to wash the dishes in the kitchen, he said okay. As I walked to the kitchen I noticed that there is a door on my left close to the kitchen, I grabbed the handle to open it asking 'Is this a store room?' in a flash he rushed from the living room and pushed me so hard I fell on the floor....TO BE CONTINUED
