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.

    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!

    ~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

    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".

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