The rest of the week saw us going and coming from the hospital to the police station. Claire was taken to court on the charge of attempted murder and several unidentified killings which was done a couple of years back. Surprising, she had pleaded guilty but it got her nothing lenient. The last hearing would be in a week time and only then will I breathe out properly. Tobe on the other hand, kept on fighting for his life. The bullet was successfully removed but then, thanks to the low medical facilities, he had been in coma since then. I kept praying for his quick recovery like he was my husband and Harry had said it in court that if Tobe doesn't get conscious before that week, Claire would have to be given a lifetime punishment.

One evening, while I was checking my schedule for the office the next day that I got a text message. I had not gone to work since Tobe got shot and I didn't care. I had dropped my leave ever since the William's issue and dad had been more than happy to know my reason involved William.

"to remind you of the party tonight, remember, we get to sign the papers today"

I quickly checked the date and realised it was the 10th. Anger quickly washed over me. I was not angry at myself for forgetting the party, but my anger was at Williams, who had never stepped foot to visit Tobe ever since the accident but he had the mind to think about a party. I was sure Leonard had told him but he had chosen to pretend not to know. I went down the stairs to meet Lois watching a soap opera.
She turned to me with a smile.

Lois: Babe.....

Me: Can you imagine this fool?

Her smile quickly disappeared and I gave her my phone, to see the text message. She frowned immediately.

Lois: Isn't this guy too much? We're bothering over out friend who's in the hospital and he has the guts to invite you to a party? Can't the signing wait?

I took my phone from her and called my PA.

Me: Oma?

Oma: Good evening ma.

Me: Thank you. How come I didn't get notified of the party with Lincoln Dayzee?

Oma: But ma, the manager said you won't make it because of your friend's health condition.

I breathed a sigh, thanking God for giving me workers who weren't as selfish as William.

Me: Hope everyone will be there? The board?

Oma: Yes ma. We've got everything under control. How's your friend?

Me: He's fine Oma. I'll be at the party but once I sign the documents, I'll leave.

Oma: Alright ma. I'll inform the others.

Me: No. Don't do that.

Oma: Alright. See you later in the evening ma.

Me: Thank you Oma.

I hung up and turned to Lois who I'm sure is wondering what's wrong with me.

Me: I'll go there, but it's just to put him in his place once and for all.

Lois: Do I come with you?

Me: Don't worry my dear. I think it's in my place to fix this once and for all.

Lois: You'll be fine on your own?

Me: Yes but right now, I need your help

Hallelujah, pamelb is back.

OLAFIMIX:
Hallelujah, pamelb is back.

I'm sorry you guys had to wait for long. I have bin very busy eh, kpele. ma binu, ndo, sorry, sanu

As I stepped into the popular hotel delincoln, I was calculating the time I was going to spend there. First, I'm here to sign those freaking papers, then secondly, I'll talk heavy sense into that rich, bossy, arrogant William. I recalled the incident that happened three hours ago at my apartment and smiled.

Me:....................... ........ I need your help.

Lois: With what?

Me: What to wear.

Lois: You have a perfect mentor for that.

We walked through the stairs to my room and Lois flung my wardrobe door open.

Me: Something simple and nice.

Lois: I'll prefer something hot and classy. A little sultry look tonight won't cause any harm.

Me: But,.........

Lois: You may just sit down and watch me or get out from this room. I was on my own when you asked for help, and help you shall get.

I threw myself on the bed without saying another word. She began to go through my clothes until she got out a blue gown she had sent me once. As usual, I had never worn it. It was still in it's nylon transparent bag. She tore the bag and brought out the gown, giving me a frown.

Lois: Looks like I'll stop sending you clothes.

Me: Those kind of clothes are for special occasions.

Lois: My foot. We only live once.

Me: I know.

She flapped the gown and smiled.

Lois: With nothing much being said, I've seen the right outfit for tonight.

I opened my mouth to argue and she shut me up with her eyes immediately.

Lois: We'll see what heels you have.

She looked through my shoe rack and selected a black stiletto heel that has diamond(fake o) on it.

Lois: Yes. Since it's a peep toe, I'll have to repaint your toes.

She went out and came back immediately with her cutex bag, I refused to argue, I just gave her my feet and allowed her do the job, all the while, thinking of what I would look like in that gown.

Now I'm here, in an off shoulder gown that stopped just on my knee. The v line that should have rested on my back stopped just above my ass, leaving my back on display. She had applied my makeup like I was going for my wedding, then parked my hair in a messy bun.
My toes had being painted blue by this same friend of mine and I must confess, I looked like an updated version of Pamela.

I walked into the reception and I can swear that every head turned towards my direction. I clutched my Gucci black purse very tight and went straight to the receptionist who was staring shamelessly at me.

Receptionist: Good evening ma, how may we help?

Me: Good evening my dear. Please where is the party taking place?

Receptionist: Oh! Take the elevator to the seventh floor. You're welcome madam.

Me: Thanks.

I dipped my hand into my purse and brought out two #1000 notes. I placed it on the counter and walked out. I could hear her excited chattering but I couldn't look back. I found the elevator and got in, checking my purse to be sure that my phone and car key were in good condition.

The ride up was smooth since I was uninterrupted till I got to the seventh floor. I stepped out from the elevator and my ears smiled to my brain as I heard the soft music playing in the background. I planted my "formal" smile and began walking down the hallway. I saw my employees and they all waved at me with smiles on their faces. I was about turning to a corner when I heard a familiar voice. I don't know why my ears are so sharp to things that end up ruining me. I turned to make sure that the voice I heard was right. Yes. I was right.
She's here, flesh and blood.

who is here dear,gud nyt

Franca is here, flesh and blood, .... something gonna happen here o

More brains to your brain!!

Sweet Pamelb you promised us three updates today, ooya show face.

Ehe! I don land again.
Still thanking you guys for your encouraging comments.



I wanted to go to her and say hi but on a second thought, I turned and made way to where the important guests were. I greeted as I walked cause I knew most of the people there. The people I didn't know, were introduced to me and we always ended up with the phrase, "I hope we work together soon".
I would smile and move on to the next person, using my eyes to search the area for William.
Someone tapped my shoulder and immediately I turned, she enveloped me in her arms. Her small figure told me who it was and I smiled.

Anna: Good evening. You look very beautiful.

I smiled and looked at her. She was dressed in a black flowing gown. Her low cut hair had a golden spray by the side. Her make up wasn't heavy as usual and she looked young and beautiful.

Me: You're looking beautiful yourself.

She giggled and I hugged her again. She held my hand immediately and began to take me back the same way I had come.

Me: Hey. Wait.

She stopped and turned to me, her eyes, bright with excitement.

Me: I'm on heels.

Anna: I know. I want you to meet my cousin. I've told her a lot about you and she's been dying to see you. Thank God you're here.

Me: And I hope they're good things you've been saying?

Anna: Of course. You're good so why won't I speak goof of you anywhere? Come, I saw her around this place.

I followed her and yes, you're right. She took me straight to Franca. She was with some guys and they were laughing hysterically.

Anna: Hi sis.

Franca turned to us and her eyes settled on me. She looked surprised.
I waved at the guys with a smile and I could notice them stare shamelessly at me.

Anna: Sis, meet my friend, Pamela, the one I've being telling you of. Pamel, meet my cousin sis, Franca.

I didn't know how to take that introduction. But one thing was clear, she wasn't angry and I was surprised. She was either going to snub me or become a friend again.

Me: Hi

She enveloped me in a hug and my eyes became misty. I held her, prolonging the hug until Anna cleared her throat.
We disengaged from each other and Franca wiped her tear while I struggled with mine.

Franca: Anna, actually, this is Kaima. The girl that used to visit our home when you were little, when you normally came during the long vacation. I know you won't remember her. We ended up being roommates until we got separated.

Anna: Wow. This world is really a small place.

Franca: True.

Anna: Alright. I'll leave you two together now so that William doesn't start looking for me.

Franca: Anna, I've told you about this relationship with........

Anna: See you later Sis.

And she was off. Franca hissed and turned to the guys. She excused herself and led me to a quiet lobby where we sat down. A waitress was passing by so we picked a glass of wine each.

Franca: You're looking very beautiful.

Me: Thanks. You too ain't looking bad.

She smiled and sipped from her glass. She looked very slim but also beautiful, like she was now into modelling. I don't know why people will put themselves through lots of troubles all in the name of modelling.

Franca: How has it been for you? You look like you've achieved a lot for yourself.

Me: All thanks to God. I manage my dad's business empire now. What about you?

Franca: I'm into modelling now. The ambassador of DeLegit women clothing line.

Me: Never heard of that but I'm happy for you. You know, Lois also has a clothing line.

Franca: Lois. That name rings a bell. Right. My replacement right?

I smiled at her use of words. Replacement. Glad she knew that word existed. Not when she replaced me with some silly girl, mixed with alcohol and cigarette.

Me: And you know, this William, he was the neighbour we never got to meet.

Franca: Serious?

Me: Yes. He lived with his best friend. We only got talking after you left.

Franca: Wow. Then I missed out on a lot. Actually, I'm also here because I'll be endorsed as the face of his hair cream company next week. All thanks to Anna that got me the connection.

Me: Wow. She and William must be very serious then

Franca: Not true. He's just using her. And she knows that. I've talked and talked but she is so stubborn.

I was tempted to ask her about Anna's parents then I remembered her own parents. They had moved out of the estate after that misunderstanding I had with Franca.

Franca: Tell me, what do you think?

Me: My dear, I wouldn't ask u to bother her over this issue hastily. Talk to her about......

Franca: Help me. She sees you as a better friend. Please will you talk to her for me?

Me: I don't know. I have history with William so......

Pamelb kisses and hug for you you be better pikin fine girl. Two more to go

OLAFIMIX:
Pamelb kisses and hug for you you be better pikin fine girl. Two more to go

I yaff die

Tankx dear.

Simply means you are good

PamelB:
I yaff die

The MC spoke into the microphone, his voice blasting through the hidden speakers, welcoming everyone to the party. I looked at Franca and we both stood up and began to walk to the large hall that was beautifully decorated. We stood just beside the entrance, like, we were almost the last people in the hall. The MC ushered William in and he came up to the stage, neatly dressed in a white suit and blue shirt inside. He had a new haircut, bottom line, he was his usual cute guy. I heard someone beside me gasp and I turned to see two girls. They were both fair and beautiful. They began to speak to themselves

G1: You're right. He's really cute. So finally, he fell for you

G2: I won't say that. I actually fell for him but now, I have him in my webs. He's all mine.

G1: Then, how come he didn't invite you?

G2: Well, he's a lot busy. Planning an event as big as this can make you forgetful a times.

G1: You're right. But I'm sure you noticed the little girl that was with him when we got here. I believe this guy just used you and has dumped you. Sorry

G2: You know what, I regret bringing you here. You're the worst kind of friend there is.

MC: .................. beautiful, hardworking, cute, CEO of De Bernards, Miss Pamel Bernards.

I snapped out from eavesdropping on the two girls. I had used their discussion to block out William's welcome speech. I don't even know why I'm been called. I looked at Franca as everyone turned to look for me, she hugged me and gestured for me to walk.
Over the years, I've appeared before lots and lots of crowd. My mother, my mentor, had taught me to walk with my head up. Then Lois, had taught me the catwalk that made me a figure in the business world.
Before I could put up my business smile, a path had being cleared for me to the front.

I began my graceful walk to the stage, waving at the faces I recognised like I was in a fashion show abi beauty pageant. I got to a point and stopped waving. I had seen his face. He was staring at me with surprise and fascination. I remembered why I had come, to vent my anger on him, that is, after signing the papers.

I got to the stage and ignored his outstretched hands which I'm sure he had stretched, expecting a hug.
My board of executives were already on stage and someone I guessed to be William's company lawyer was also there with files in his hands.

I had gotten an applause from the audience and it was just right to speak to them

Me: Good evening you all.......

Thanks for the updates ma
