My ex was my first. We met in university when life was still simple and it was a smooth ride. Years later, we parted ways amicably when I left the country. He always wanted us together but we kinda met other people and moved on. So I thought. My ex was still hung up on me but I didn’t know. When I returned to Nigeria and reconnected with him, the girl he had just broken up with prior to our reconnection, reached out to me on IG and said plenty stuff like, ‘oh so I’m the ex who never allowed her man love her completely, there’s always that ex’. Thing is, I only indulged him after he confirmed he was single, which was true from what she said. Anyways, a while after the drama, I made a discovery that a particular guy who had always been on my case, was her brother. I did like her brother, but told him I couldn’t, cause I didn’t want to be the weapon fashioned against that girl.
