When the driver eventually stopped at the Asaba motopark, Prieto and Susan was surprised, it was as if the distance traveled from Obiaruku to Asaba was not too far. Only because the two of them were carried away in their conversation, which was leading to more personal and intimate talks. Prieto was happy at the suggestive company, he decided with Susan. When the driver eventually got to their destination, Prieto open the door to the vehicle at the back sit. He dropped from the car and asked the driver to unlock the boot, so he could take his traveling bag.
Susan dropped too, but yet expecting Prieto to initiate a more intimate relationship with her, through the means of the chance she was trying to create by waiting, to at least say good bye to him. The other two passengers, that was inside the vehicle already dropped and they went their way to wherever. Prieto took his bag and looked around the back, he saw various luxurious buses traveling to different part of the state. Susan was looking at him where he stood, but Prieto almost loosed conscious about the lady he had been talking to because traveling to the north was on his mind. He looked again to where the driver parked the car that just dropped them, he saw Susan looking at her watch and pretending as if, he wasn't the one she was stylishly waiting for.
Anyway, Prieto knew the girl was interested in him because If she cared less about him, she would have left like the rest of them. Prieto approach where she was, hey babe! He said. "I thought you already went your way already". "Kindly pardon my half heartedness, I just discovered I am new to this place we are, and I was just busy looking around on how I could find my way forward. Susan replied with smile, "it's okay', while looking at the bag Prieto was carrying. "All this luxurious buses here", Prieto said. Susan replied him, "what about them?". "Do you have any idea, how I could get the ones going to the north?", Prieto asked her again. She said sure "those are the ones at the other extreme". Oh I see! Prieto exclaimed. "So are you just leaving me like that?", Susan asked. Prieto was surprised at her question. "Susan what did you mean?", he asked her. Susan said nothing with the facial expressions of unhappiness.
Prieto got the message. He asked her, "Susan before I travel taking the luxurious, I feel the need to chill out here a while for at least two day, before getting to Jos. "Can you show me the town around?", asking Susan. Then Susan replied, "You mean you don't intend to travel again to Jos today?", Prieto replied, I can equally relax here for a day or two, in a cheap guest house with you. "At least I believe it will well worth the effort with you. Asking Susan, " what she thought about it?". The girl looked at him and said, "why not! We are matured folks, and I won't mind taking you to one of those guest houses. Susan said. They looked at themselves, feeling welcome with the idea of the two of them chilling together in Asaba for a day or two, so they can get to know themselves better.
Prieto was carrying his bag, and Susan asked him if he was serious about his idea to stay for few days. Prieto said yes! and she said okay. Susan told Prieto that if he doesn't mind she could show him to an affordable guess house, which won't cost that much if he is willing to see things in Asaba, at least in his first hand experience in the city. Prieto was excited. "I don't mind Susan", he said. Susan called a motorcycle, to take the both of them to the campus area. The bike man charged them #400naira, and Prieto said let's go carrying his traveling bag with. He sat behind Susan on the motorcycle, with his bag at the front wheel of the bike. The bike man zoomed off to the city and Susan showed her appreciation, by slightly leaning on Prieto chest on the bike. Prieto got the message. He sensed that Susan wants to be his lover, therefore Prieto curdle her by the waist, to show he understood her feeling for him.
As soon as the bike man got to the campus area, at the supposed bus-stop he stopped. Prieto ask Susan, "where are we?". Susan said "we are going to prestige guest house, where you can let off your heavy load traveling bag". Prieto laughed to himself. Ummh heavy load bag drop off! He said. "Well that sounds good to me", Prieto told her. Susan smiled while helping Prieto to carry his bag to the guest house. Prieto asked; "I thought you mentioned campus area to the bike man?", I was thinking we were on our way to your school". "Beside where do you stay?", Prieto asked her. I live off campus. Delta State University is a state University, "I know that for sure", Prieto said, and we don't have boarding houses at the school premises, so all the student stays around the entire vicinity within the city". "I know about that", he answered her. "So I believe you stay with some couple of friends in a rented place?", He asked her and she said yes. "Am not an ignorant fellow, I already passed through the system. All this talks was going on, while the two of them were taking a walk to the prestige guest house.
When they got to the place, which was not very far from the main road, Prieto asked his this the guest house?", Susan said yes. The two of them stepped into the place, and Susan walked to the bar tender. "Please we need a room here! She said to the bar man. Prieto added, "and how do you charge your client?", Asking the bar tender at the reception. He replied the both of them, "we charge #3,000 per day". Okay! Prieto responded. "So in two days, the bill is #6,000?", questioning the receptionist. The man said yes sir. Without any forms of delay, Prieto counted the money out of the #20,000 in his pocket and gave it to the bar tender, who is also the receptionist of the place. The receptionist brought out a key with the room label on it, room 8. He handed over the key to Prieto, and told him to use the staircase, that the room space is upstairs. Susan was still carrying Prieto's bag, which was strapped and hung by her shoulder.
They both went upstairs to the place, Prieto and Susan. In getting up stairs, Prieto spotted the room with the key number in his hand. He encouraged Susan to keep coming close to the door. Excitedly, Prieto slotted the key in to the door holes, and twist it to the left hand side and the door got opened. He asked Susan to come in first, since she was the one carrying his bag.
