Blue Peril: The Genesis
Hello People, My name is Adriana, and I love shoes, i would
just buy shoes and put them on display and just be happy just looking at them, I
know this is not a good first impression but truthfully I’m into shoes. Today is
not about shoes though, I kissed a guy today and I did NOT feel a thing, well
maybe except disgust; which is weird, a kiss never disgusts me, I mean it’s a kiss
for crying out loud. So why did a kiss disgust me?
I decided to come here to share the stories behind my love
life on here and try to make them as short as possible and spread them over
time. This is my first Piece, Do Enjoy.
*************************************************************
I live in a world where uncool is a synonym for Virgin, not
to talk of being a kiss- virgin too. I was 16 and in SS2, I wasn’t bothered, I only
cared about physics assignment – I had a strict teacher, Chemistry lab work and
who I was going to disturb during Prep. Although I got a lot of attention from
boys, wasn’t bothered either.
Not for long
Strolling along the road with my friend one Saturday during
visiting hours, She stops to greet this tall, slim, handsome boy, then she
introduces us, we all got talking, I was so engrossed that I didn’t even know
when my friend left us. We kept talking for hours about God know what.
There were a lot of boys with the “good – looking” appearance
all over the school but not all of them had a good command of English and could
make me laugh like Joseph did, and just like that I became one of them, you
know those “Snr Adriana, Snr Joseph wants to see you outside” category of
girls, I was so shy I would see him for a short while then go back to my hostel
“Still Thinking about it”
Quick Question: When we were younger, why did we believe in
keeping the boy waiting too long even if we liked him?
I had senior friends who would go for prep- after- prep,
come back and start a tell – it – all discussion
about “happened” during the prep after dark, my young mind would pick up on
stuff and arouse my curiosity.
Finally, I decided to become Josephs girlfriend so I joined
the prep – after – prep band wagon, gradually since basically prep after dark wasn’t
for ‘talking’ we started running out of things to say, I starting panicking.
Not for long either.
“Adriana, tell me, have you kissed Joseph before?” She
dropped it on me like bomb one prep - after – prep night.
“Because I kissed segun today and it really felt good” She
continued
Trying not to look in her eyes “Errrmmm…. I’ve never kissed
before, I really don’t know how to”
I almost laughed out at the shock I saw on her face.
Recovering from her shock, she tried to convince me about
how awesome and harmless kissing is “You close your eyes, there can be tongue
involved, you let him lead and soak it in”
I sat there nodding my head and soaking it all in like an
agama lizard and with every intake if the words I said good bye to a little
piece of my innocence.
One prep after prep, trying to say goodbye to my “love” then
he put his lips on mine and for a second there I would have sworn all the blood
I had in my whole body went up to my brain so I couldn’t send the signal to my
lips to part ways to give way for his, so I stood there two hands by my side,
lips closed and he trying to stick is tongue in my tight closed lips, now what’s
the definition of awkward again? I just gave the shy smile and left for my
hostel, of course I had to go back and give my tutor feedback, I couldn't crush
her feelings and tell how much bad a student I was.

| Literally |
“It was nice” was my reply and she just smiled, gave me the I
– told - you – so look and hugged me like
saying goodbye to my innocence was something to celebrate.
After numerous Preps after dark and attempts to have a non-tongue-forcing-kiss,
I finally learnt to part my lips while kissing and my life never remained the
same.
Met my friend on my way to his class after School on a
Friday, She greeted me longer than usual, that was where I got suspicious “Seriously
Bimpe What’s going on?, let me go I need to see Joseph”
Reluctantly she let me go without saying a word to reply me.
As I walked to see Joseph and one of his friends playing as
usual but this time before they could sight me their tongues were doing a little
playing too, rubbing my eyes clearing my throat by the window side making sure
the saw me, then I walked away. We saw each other a couple of times after that
incident.
But Not for long.
I broke up with him. I was miserable, but of course I learnt
a huge lesson about peer pressure in this first phase of my love life, do
things for you not because your friend thinks it’s a good idea or because your
friends think its cool, so at least you would be responsible for your Actions
and not blame someone for your mistakes – people that won’t be there to clean
the mess when the water boils over the cooker.
