A tale of Val

-->
Although I was a virgin at 21, my mind was already a book of porn. I've imagined all the ribald and horrid things I’d do to the first lady that entered the mouse trap that was my heart. Then came Valentine's day. A day filled with all opportunities to love and lie emotionally-legal lies. To love in truth or lie with all sincerity. Valentine's day is a day of shower on all love or lusts in drought. A day to live out some or most of your fantasies depending on resources, time and space. So, it was February 14th that year and an opportunity for me to live my fantasies, tell all the lies and reap the fruits of lust thereof.

I have been dating this sweet girl for less than three months, we started our supposed love affair some weeks to Christmas and it survived through the harsh financial climates of January with a bright hope of Valentine. But time and space have denied us the opportunity to consummate raw emotions beyond casual hugs once in a while. And then came Valentine!

Several sleepless hours of midnight calls have secured the time and venue for the celebration of love. I saved all I had, starved myself and suffered my body with the consolation that all the pent up emotion in me would be relieved. I was prepared to give my angel the best in exchange for a rest for my throbbing nerves.

Nothing could be reassuring on a valentine day than a planned meeting in a lonely, private place; a friend's place, home alone or any other venue that ensure ambience for two. We agreed to a time out to an eatery in town, then a lovely time together at a friend's place. Since we were both in the university and living on campus, off campus was it!

I must have been prompted out of bed by lust but love took over as the day unfolded. I went to get a bouquet of roses and a superb hand-made card which came handy as Val approached. I felt like a prince in shining armour as I stepped out in my favourite outfit, doused in perfume headed for the eatery. My joy knew no bound when I saw my angel stepped out of the cab and cat-walked elegantly into the eatery and towards me with all eyes in the eatery on her. I felt on top of the world!

We had a great time eating, drinking and gisting, holding hands and laughing at silly jokes. We took a cab to my friend's place and the tale will never end as I live.

I let us in like the owner of the apartment, tastefully furnished for a student's lodge. We could barely hold ourselves as we got down kissing, hugging, cuddling and pulling our articles of clothings off. I was ready for my first experience into a woman, I wasn't sure it would be her first; bros no time!

We were both half naked when I had a rude knock on the door. I was startled but quickly collected myself as a “man”. I strolled to the door and asked who it was, before I could comprehend what the thick raging voices were saying the door was on my face. As the guys stepped into the room and saw my girl trying to fit herself into her tight-fitting jeans one of them turned to me and gave me a upper-cut and a heavy left just above my brow...I blacked out as flashes of all the colours that make Valentine's day gushed through my sight.

I didn't come to life until 3 hours after. I opened my eyes starring at a clinic wall with several posters pasted on each other. The bigger poster has been mutilated so it read in part “we treat but..” I asked myself “but what”?.

I later learnt that my angel was a sister to the kingpin of a very dreaded cult group on campus and he had been silent about our relationship until he was told I was laying his sister. He was the one that gave me the Mike Tyson cut on my brow. It was a very serious lesson that kept me a virgin until I graduated from the university.
