Excerpts

Before she arrived that evening again to spend yet another night, she had bugged the living shit out of me, calling my phone at least once every hour. I knew no peace since I met this girl. She was gradually creeping under my skin, such that I felt freer when we were together. She told me repeatedly how she liked me and how happy she was that she met me. She was the new girlfriend I did not realise I had. However, she must have noticed I was not especially buttering myself up to the whole mushiness and was distant.


She then asked, "Am I coming on too strong?",

and I replied, "Are you coming on at all?". I tried to be nice but it was beyond me.



A short extract from the story pRevieW came from.

I'll tell you something... I really don't enjoy reading fiction on blogs. But after reading this excerpt on my reader, i told myself "i have to reconsider my stance". Dude, you got me. It's even nice that they are not long posts.

I enjoy this excerpt.

rethots said...

Hmmm, do not 'em come on too strong sometimes? Subtle is the watchword....

bumight said...

lol @ 'She was the new girlfriend I did not realise I had.'

its funny how babes or even dudes just inform you that u're in a relationship, and u're like 'when did it happen?'

ps: i still like the 20 naira note better!

Flourishing Florida said...

baroque, d love cynic!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! very nice write up.

@ aloofar: hmm, daz explains y u don't visit my blog anymore.

Joy Isi Bewaji said...

bee dearest! u should try poetry you know.
u could try not being too nice if u don't dig someone's 'audacity'.

i know i dont!

holler.

~Sirius~ said...

I hope this isn't happening to you right now.

I would hate me, If I was a guy and a bug-a-b-oo came running along.

Toluwa said...

interesting...short and interesting!

Nigerian Drama Queen said...

Lol@ "I tried to be nice but it was beyond me". It's funny how men say one thing (or don't say anything at all) and women hear what they wanna hear....

How've you been?

Anonymous said...

wow...DAMN!!!

but in ma mind both stories NEED clarification badly...do you ever do clarification, Mr? lol...

bArOquE said...

~Aloofar, thanks, but you need to know that this is not fiction...

~rethotz, you can say that again!

~bumight, leave that 20naira issue na, we have upgraded...meanwhile you sound like you have been in that surprising situation before

~FFF, me, love cynic??? LOL

~Isi, for once you agree with me...& i do poetry

~Sirius, i was the one that looked for her trouble, & no its not happening right now...what a way that would be to start the year!

~Toluwa, it was extracted from a not quite finished 4page story...short & interesting

~NDQ, you have said it all, most women are very guilty of this crime

~Chari, you might have to read the entire story to understand...someday, it should get posted here

Joy Isi Bewaji said...

lol! i always agree with u bee, always... that's why we argue so often. LMHO!

Anonymous said...

GooD! but my question is - why didnt you just inform her of your stance... some people (both Men and women) cannot read subtlety, so...
Well cant wait to read the rest.

Naija Idol said...

some girls r just too clingy. as in wtf??? baroque honey, how PH?

bArOquE said...

~Isi, we argue so often because we always agree...i dey come, make i digest that one...LOL

~Temite, it wasn't about declaration of stances, she did those things people do, ASSUME, neglecting all i had been saying, OR NOT SAYING!

~NaijeezeeIdol, PH is BLAZING HOT (weather), not forgetting the manic traffic...*shakes head*

badderchic said...

you are cheating on me abi?

Shubby Doo said...

hmmm... replied, "Are you coming on at all?"...hmmm

Jaja said...

I tried t be nice, but it was beyond me. Let me fondle that for a while...

bArOquE said...

~ShubbyDoo, do you wanna come on?...hmmmm?

~Jaja, oh my broda, its been a while...btw, please fondle it all you want

bumight said...

Lolia said...

You got skills barouque, nice update..been waitin for ya since 2008!!

Anonymous said...

nice post... love the short, sweet and provocative.
i blame the clingee for the state of the clinger. it's called being honest enough to say... "f off, you, psycho-clinger you!". but then again the clingee excuse is "i don't wanna be mean" translated as "i'm loving the ego-boost right here".

miz-cynic said...

I thot i left a comment on this post.anways lol at bumight...na real McRandy....thank God u know being nice is beyond u.I'll play devil's advocate here and say.....why did u not just tell the girl ho ha.i dont like u...leave me the heck alone. the baroque i know doesnt send....in go yan the girl ho ha...i'm not feeling u...except there was something...like the "rape"" u wanted to gain tht u had not gained yet...as in she must to drop.

bArOquE said...

~Lucious, just might be updating soon, doubt if it would be the rest of this story

~Jarrai, i got skills? dont make me blush, tell me about it...happy '09 to you too love

~kmplx, AS THE NAME IMPLIES...complex

~mizcynic, Baroque is not an outrightly rude bastard, or is he?...anyway, she had 'dropped' & i was waiting for her time in the city to run out...few days left!

The Activist said...

Me, I was about to tell you not to give in to obssession b4 I realise na fiction. keep it coming

miz-cynic said...

baroque!..* a deep sigh of exasperation* u this guy....so she's still on board....interesting....

standtall.....the dude said no be fiction.....abi na by force. lol.

Afolabi said...

You did give her what she wanted. But the problem, I think, is the timing and maybe speed.

Lighty 'neferet' Kopearl said...

i'lld feel guilty if i had a bad word for the lady in ur excerpt bcos boy!!! i can be a lil clingy sumtyms much to my own annoyance sef. but dat every call an hour i cnt do sha!!! and i take a 3 day break to let the dude do d callin wen am annoyed wit myself lyk dat.

but e go beta now, evry1 is chasing acceptance and love.

bugger.

on u baroque i think ure scared of loosing ur free space. maybe ure not scared, maybe u just dont want to. or at least not to her.

it shall be well. enjoy thrusting tho! lol!

Anonymous said...

:) touché

bArOquE said...

~standTall, if i shout say NO BE FICTION, it would seem like i'm trying to prove something...

~mizcynic, on board, HOW? with who? abeg oh...why are you exasperated? mnwhile, help me tell standTall oh. LOL

~Afolabi, i did get what i wanted, with my timing & speed...i dont know if i gave

~Lighty, i dont mind clingy, (esp if its you *wink*), just dont hang in my hair...the calls were maddening at some point...then imagine when its a phone that calls out the names...hehehehe
...you were so frigging right about the space theory. LOL

~kmplx, lets have a cup of coffee! please!

Tyger said...

if this is not fiction.. then the preview too is not?

if this is not fiction, who did this happen to? -- baroque?

nobody likes bug-a-boos they bring out the meano in some of us

but please tell me you are not going to justify the rape with the "bug-a-boo"

Afrobabe said...

Hey, isn't this an old story???

miz-cynic said...

tyger ....pls let us tell him o....the charisma shizzle wont work with us o....let us join mouth and condemn wht is bad....lol.baroque:-d girl said stop even if it was at the point of "4 thrusts".like ibiluv's post one time.

FineBoy Agbero said...

Ok, forward dis opeke to me; i go deal with am agbero style!!!

Thot i was here some time ago; realized i wasnt!

nice blog! (even had to read some back posts)

Anonymous said...

:p

bArOquE said...

~Tyger, yes, & neither is Preview...they're all from the same one long story...RAPE or whatever you call it; in that situation again, i will do exactly the same thing...no apologies sweetie...tell your man to stop 5mins after penetration (after a 30mins+ long foreplay & see what happens

~Afrobaby, yes, but never been told here...only a bit from one other end of the same long story...does it look familiar?

~FBA, she happens to be in Eko, so it wont cost you much...unlike me...well, you're welcome here, i always offer first-timers coffee, hope you like decaff?

~kmplx, thanks for turning down my offer! *shakes head & walks away*

Afrobabe said...

Just looks like something only YOU would have written babes...

ibiluv said...

so.........a classic case of she's dreaming of the stars and you only see the *punny*

sometimes you dont even see the punny

so i ask........

does she have a clearer picture now?????????

Anonymous said...

don't believe i rejected or accepted...

bArOquE said...

~Afrobaby mi, it does abi? am i becoming so stereotype?

~ibilurvy, i dont think her eyes were even open...but she sure does have a CLEAR picture now...wherever she is

~kmplx, my dear, your silence to a request as that was taken as a refusal...its a lil too late to declare otherwise

Anonymous said...

ok.

ablackjamesbond said...

'i dont think her eyes were even open'...hmmm

miz-cynic said...

SO THTS WHY U DIDNT REPLY MY OWN COMMENT ABI...ok o.

Chris Ogunlowo said...

Queen of My Castle said...

bumight said...

bArOquE said...

~QOmyC, ma cherie, if i'm driving distances, it would be in your direction...

~bumight, you're gonna tell the truth & nothing but it someday, right?
