Entry 9: Maybe We Should Just Be Friends

2 Mins read

I woke up in a rush today although I barely got any sleep. I kept thinking about T and checking my phone intermittently to see if my Money Duo request had been accepted. Ma air mi jo, T 🤲🏾

Been a long while since I last felt this way, if at all. If I’m being honest, I’ve probably been hiding behind work to avoid love stories, but look at me now. One thing must break a person and T has broken my hard guy stance, but at this rate, maybe we should just be friends.

As at this morning, T was yet to accept my Duo request and I have been too tensed to check again. I can literally feel my heart pulsating fast. Omo, this love thing na wa.

I think I will ask someone else to help me check. David must have muted me on Slack by now 🥴 But all these my colleagues sef, they will not let me love my love in peace. They’ve been asking who T is since they read yesterday’s entry and I kept changing the topic 🙈

Maybe I should talk to an outsider? Or someone at home? Imagine that my family members hear that I’m drooling over someone. Ehhh, I can imagine my mum literally throwing a party 🤣

Love is sweet sha. A friend once told me of how he spent days writing in a journal to give to the love of his life then. He spent days just spewing sweet gibberish on paper. The relationship is over now though 😬

Beautiful while it lasted, but it is what it is.

Why does love feel so complicated at times? Or maybe I should borrow words from Adele: why does it last in love but sometimes it hurts instead? 

Oh well, let me come back to the real issue. T has not still accepted my Duo request o. It’s been 24 hours now. Maybe we should actually, just be friends 🙄

I hope all is well with T though. Pray for me y’all.

Better yet, give me hope. Share your love stories with me – good or bad. Has your crush ever aired you? Or did you at any point air someone who liked you? Don’t worry, I won’t judge you. After all, to air is human 🌚

👇🏽Lmaooo tell me about it, and let me live through you small as I await T’s response. 

Talk soon.

Love,
Ope 💙
