I have this girl who was and still is the only person I can turn to in case of anything. I would introduce her to people as my girlfriend since a lot of explanation would complicate things. We met in class after the admission in the university and our friendship is this intimate one such that everyone who know or see us would think we were dating. She is more than a girlfriend to me, a family.
My phone rang but the lazy mood and dizziness I had from the sleep couldn't let me. Picking it was a struggle. It went silent and my mind relaxed a bit. It rang for the second time and this time one of my roommates handed it to me. The caller made me jump out the bed and pick it with a lot of excuses (which would be lies) as to why I had not picked the first attempt. It was my father and I had to strain to make my voice sound normal as he expected on a Monday, a time like this, I would be either in or through with the first class. He was brief and just asked for my fee statement. I got my laptop and rushed to the WiFi place so as to send it through the email.
Down the stares I happened to meet the guy who had come with the cookies and this became more tempting, should I go and send the email first or should I listen to this 'pal'? Enticing he was that he told me that I could use his internet since he had more than enough data bundles. We walked back into the room and I managed to send the mail. My roommate left for class and again we were the two of us. I made us coffee for i had not taken breakfast yet and listened to some hard music (hip hop).
I really didn't understand why it was so hard to tell this guy that I was afraid of getting addicted to drugs. The relationship I had developed with him had made my relationship with most of my friends be weak. The funny part is no one could even tell that we were friends since we never walked or did anything public together. He could text me asking if I was in my room and the other important stuffs we would talk was weed and cocaine. This was really confusing but still the more we did this stuffs the more my confusion lessened.
For the very first time he got some rolls from his backpack and a lighter which made me uncomfortable. Before I could talk my phone rang again and this time round was my girlfriend. I looked at it and thought of ignoring it but still I loved her and picking it was not by choice. She wanted to know something with a software I had installed in her laptop for some projects we were doing. As I explained to her my friend back here was busy lighting a roll. I reached for the lighter and tried to show him through some signs to wait. As soon as the call ended I explained to him that I have this condition in my body and smoking would do no good. 'Lucky me' he had some cookies that we took. This time I took more cookies than the previous days. We decided to watch some comic clips in youtube which made us laugh to the extent of our ribs aching. Listening to us laughing made me hallucinate that the room was full. I felt dizzy and things around me as earlier started forming some funny shapes. This made me laugh even more but an acute pain made me see darkness.
My life was going astray and did nothing to prevent it. Instead I started pushing away my close friends not sparing that person who meant the world to me. Darkness was the realm that I was dwelling in.
Sad.
