"Bro, I am seeing your movement, hehe," Abel told me jokingly. "Sha, the girl is sexy, she gets things back and front." My bro, you have sharp eyes." I was just smiling as Abel was trying to compliment me for choosing to go into a relationship with Amarachi. Amarachi is one of the most beautiful girls in my department. But she had one fault, style. She does things in an old-school way, from dressing, walking style, talking and even eating style.
She is beautiful and blessed with an enticing front side and backside. She is fair in complexion. She is tall and I love tall girls. One of the nights when Abel inquired why I asked such a girl out, I told him, "My guy, the thing is she is just too beautiful. I don't know why a lot of boys don't pester her. I will see why, we are already on the journey." Abel smiled and said, "That's why I like you, my bro, you are just too smart."

Abel is my best friend in school. I often discuss my secrets with him. I tell him everything about my life and he does so as well. We were more like one blood. We share the same sleeping bunk. He sleeps in the up bunk while I stay in the one under. One night when we felt everyone in the room was in deep sleep, we began to discuss the kind of girls we love. He told me about the features he would see in a woman and he would never end a relationship with such a woman.
After telling everything about his likes and dislikes, it was then my turn to tell him mine. Then I told him everything I would love a partner in a relationship with me to possess. While still telling him, he interrupted, "Hey!!! Hold it there gee, why do you like tall girls because I took love for tall girls." I told him that I love tall girls because I'm tall and it wouldn't be hard for us to have a hot kiss when we wish to do so. I wouldn't have to squat or bend to kiss. "Ha ha ha!!!! You are the most stupid and funniest friend I've ever had. What a stupid reason." Abel to me. " Yes, it may be stupid for you but sensible for me." That was how we ended our talk that night.
The next day, after our early morning lecture, I waited at our usual spot where I often meet Amarachi. She was already aware that I was there waiting for her, so she headed straight to the cashew tree. When she met me, we had a light hug. In my mind, I told myself," One day, I pray this hug is gonna get more tight." I never knew the relationship would end that day. We took our little walk to the cafeteria to eat. While walking down to the cafeteria Amarachi did one of the things I never expected her to do. Though she wasn't feeling too well, she was having a little runny nose. A student in a higher institution who has passed some formal education should know how to manage a runny nose. As the catarrh was running down Amarachi's nose, she quickly folded her fingers and cleaned the catarrh. She flung her hand and the catarrh fell on one of the passersby who got vexed and embarrassed us.
We apologized to the victim and he left squeezing his face and murmuring some words. While I was still trying to calm my temper, I saw Amarachi wiping her fingers on her dress. This was the biggest bombshell I received. Since we had just begun the relationship, I didn't want a sudden end to it, so that people wouldn't wonder what sort of relationship we had. So I didn't react to her actions, I controlled my emotions and we moved on. She was silent till we arrived at the cafeteria. There I began to advise her and encouraged her to modify her style of living. She listened as if she heard everything I said. I called her "Ama baby", meaning "Amarachi my baby."
When we arrived at the cafeteria, I went to get food for two but the waiter told me that food for two was not ready, the food ready at that time would only serve one person. I was so furnished that I could finish a mountain of food. I went back to Amarachi and told her, "Ama baby, the food available is only for one person and I'm so furnished, you said you took snacks. I haven't taken anything so let me eat first when the food is ready I will get it for you, okay? She didn't respond so I tapped her shoulders and left to get the food. When I returned, I sat by her side. While eating, I tried to engage her in a talk while waiting for the food to be ready. From the look on her face, I knew Amarachi wasn't happy.
I didn't want to go straight to ask her if she was sad. I continued to tell her some of the funny events that occurred in the boy's dormitory last night, how boys made a video record of the dormitory master while he was sleeping with his tongue out of his mouth and eyes wide open. After telling her all this, I expected her to laugh but she didn't so I decided to ask her if that was not funny enough. She didn't respond and I then asked her plainly, "Ama baby, my heartbeat, any problem, why are you not talking again? She hissed and faced the floor. I crossed my hand on her shoulders and she shook it off. Then I knew I had committed.
"Baby talk to me. This isn't how things are done. If you have something bothering you, you are free to let me know. Problem shared is half solved." Then she finally said her mind, "You couldn't even sacrifice for your girlfriend. All you care for is your stomach. What if I was fainting?". "Oh my God!!!" I exclaimed.``But you didn't tell me so, that was why I decided to ask you first but you didn't say a word, I ….." She didn't even let me finish my statement and she walked out of me and warned me never to get close to her again. I was left stranded and confused. "Which kind of girl is this?" I asked myself a question I couldn't answer.
When I got back to the hostel, I told Abel everything and he laughed, "I remember jokingly saying you were stupid, I guess I have seen someone more than you." Abel said as he continued to laugh at what I didn't see to be funny at that moment. At the end of the whole discussion, Abel advised me to apologize to her.
"I can't, even if my father tells me to do so. I did her no wrong and you expect me to apologize. What should I apologize for? I replied Abel angrily. "So this is how sudden this relationship is gonna end?" Abel said, speaking in a Black American tone.
"Yes, let it end. I don't care anymore."
And this was how my relationship with Amarachi suddenly ended for a very silly reason.
