章節 60: Sixty

After looking at my room from his window, my eyes caught a picture that was sitting on the top of his mini cupboard.

I got up from the bed and went to have a better look at it. It was a woman in the picture, she looked like she was in her late thirties.

There was a certain resemblance I noticed in her, she had a smile just like Uche's. Was this his mum? but she wasn't African, she was...well... white.

I kept it and picked up the second picture sitting next to it. The same woman was in that picture but with Uche's Dad this time, my guess was right, it was his mum but where was she.

I wondered if she was dead. No wonder I hadn't seen her around ever, and he was always talking about his dad, I've never heard him mention his mum.

I returned the picture frame to where I picked it from, arranging it to look like I never touched it; I didn't know if he was okay with me touching his things yet. I heard footsteps and immediately returned to the bed and sat with my legs folded.

"She's up here." I heard Uche tell Nick as he opened the door to his room. He had put his shirt back on.

"Why is she up here?"

"She got bored waiting for you to return so we were about to start a movie."

"That movie?" Nick looked at the laptop's screen from where he stood.

"No, a different one." Uche replied. Nick just looked at me for a while then joined me in the bed.

"Well, I'm here now. Let's watch it." He said and I saw Uche run his fingers through his curly hair. He gave me a quick look, licking his lower lips before joining both Nick and I in his bed. He didn't sit next to me, he sat near his best friend.

****

Two hours later.

We were done watching the movie. Nick got off the bed with a yawn. He looked at the time on his phone screen before speaking.

"Alright Julie, we have to go." I frowned when I heard him. I didn't want to go home, I wanted to stay here with Uche. I turned to him and saw that he had no distinctive expression on his face. I stood with my feet on the bed, ready to jump off when I heard Nick again.

"Don't do that."

"Huh?" I had to ask because, don't do what? I didn't understand him at first.

"Don't step on the bed, Uche doesn't like that." Nick clarified.

"Ohhh..." I was still expressing my surprise when Uche spoke.

"No, it's cool."

"It's cool?" Nick stopped whatever he was doing on his phone to look at Uche."When I do that, you get pissed but with Julie, it's cool?"

"Well, she's a girl..." Uche was still saying when Nick cut his words short.

"Oh I get it, you are sexist." Nick said and I heard Uche snort out loud. He got off his bed and put out his hands in front of me for me to take. I put my hand in his and he helped me down from the high bed.

"She's off the bed now, end of topic." Uche told his best friend but Nick only shook his head.

"No, we gotta talk about this shit that just happened," I heard Uche snort out a laughter again.

"Really?" Uche looked at him.

"Yeah, really. I can't put my feet on your bed, Kim can't, none of the boys can but Julie can huh?"

"Please Nick, don't stress this out." Uche was still laughing. While I listened to their conversation, I adored Uche's lips as he spoke, lips I could kiss whenever I wanted...and his frontal set which he exposed as he spoke, I could just melt, my boyfriend was a charm.

"I've gotta."

"O my god," Uche sighed when Nick wouldn't give up the topic.

"So you are just gonna let any girl put their feet on your bed," Nick still asked.

"Well, not just any girl." Uche replied.

"April?"

"Yeah April, I know her feet are kept clean..." Uche stopped his words. I think he just realized that he mentioned a name I didn't want coming out his mouth. He sighed. His smile left.

"Did you just call my feet unclean?" There came another question from Nick but Uche didn't seem that much pleased to entertain it.

"Look man, my legs feel a little numb after laying in bed for hours. I'ma just return to bed, if you don't wanna leave yet, thought I could walk you out."

Wow, I don't think I've ever heard anyone use such delicate words to ask a person to leave. Did he think I was mad because he mentioned April? I mean, I don't like that he did but I wasn't mad. Or am I?
