A Letter To My Boyfriend – Episode 14
At Lagos(in Dozie’s house)
Austin was seen relaxing on a cushion with a frown
face
wen Dozie walked in adjusting his shirt.
“Austin.
food is ready” Dozie said.
“I’m not hungry” Austin replied. Dozie went and sat
beside him.
“You can’t be like this. You have been trying her
number
all day. You have to eat” Dozie said.
“I mean
how can I eat when I haven’t heard from her since I got
down
here. I have no appetite. I need to talk to her” Austin
replied.
“Has it gotten to that?”
“Sure. it has”
“No no no no, let’s I forget. has her number gone through
again today?” Dozie asked.
“Last time her father picked her Call. Her phone has
been
ringing no answer. I even tried calling her with another
number
still no response” Austin said and Dozie laughed. Austin
kept
staring at him wondering what was funny.
“Which
means, you have to try again later. Have you tried
sending
her a text message?” Dozie asked.
“yes about ten of it still no response”
“what’s going on”
“what’s happening?” Austin asked adjusting upright.
“Austin.
I think this whole thing started the day your line was blocked.
I
suspect that her father blocked her line so that there will be
no
communication between the both of you” Dozie said.
“What
in Gods name was he thinking doing such thing?” Austin reasoned.
“He
wants you to come looking for shantel in his house so he will
get
back at you. can’t you get it” Dozie said and Austin concurred.
“what
do I do now?” Austin asked.
“Aww. I think you should not give him that chance. that’s
what
you should do” Dozie replied. Austin buried his face on a pillow
feeling sad.
