Dedicated to
Angelisto for wishing me quick recovery
Viviend for calling to check up on me
Am not that strong but I just wanna drop something


Onome
I busied myself by assisting mum in the kitchen,we tried out a new dish had always wanted to prepare but couldn't because of my busy schedule.Afternoon came and I found myself playing ludo with mum of which I won twice..afterwhich I fell asleep on the sofa until the
cute doctor showed up.
Am sorry,I woke you up.He apologized giving his Mr cool smile.

What do you want?I asked avoiding his gaze

Come on,about our date??I promise you won't regret it.

How can you go on a date with someone you barely know? I asked angrily.

I know you..apart from treating you at the hospital, seeing you at the supermarket, bumping into you at the hospital I really do know you.
So tell me what else do you know?

You attended Uniben,your favourite colour is black,you like your hair falling across your shoulder,You prefer been natural , you are an only child,your..

Uhmm is okay..stop right there.I'll be back in a jifty I said and hurried upstairs.

I came down a few minutes later dressed in a black gown which ended at the knee level on a nude sandals,my natural hair falling across my shoulders..He was right,I loved been natural and I applied a little makeup on rare occasions.I took my phone and nude Gucci purse and headed downstairs.

Ehimare

I just couldn't stop staring at her..damn she was beautiful. I loved her been natural.. In fact she needed no makeup..If she applied makeup I bet guys would go crazy.She had this long thick black hair that rested perfectly on her shoulders..her lips were full and pink,gosh I felt like kissing her senseless.For the first time I noticed her lashes were long too..wow,and her hazel eyes ..I was lost staring at her.

Shall we...I heard someone scream.

Am sorry..I was lost staring,you're beautiful

Have been calling you for what seemed like ages she said in a frown.

Am sorry ..
******
I drove gently out of the compound but before playing"drunk in love".She sang along like her Iife depended on the song without missing any line.I had wanted to ask her if it was her favourite or something but had decided to let her be..I hadn't seen her that happy before...
I had put the car to an halt before she asked'
Why did you bring me here?

It was a beach..like who would take a lady to a beach on a first date?but I wanted to.

While I was younger..It had been my favourite place,my dad once said he proposed to my mum here and she accepted.. And ever since then it held a special place in my heart.I told her.
Wow..that's quite romantic of him...but we just met..she said turning away sadly like something was eating her up.

I placed my hands on her shoulders..
Hey look at me...please.
She did after a few seconds.
This might sound funny..but I think you should try it out..whenever am upset I scream at the top of my voice and I feel better,I want you to let it all out..let everything you're feeling out.
She gave the "can I stare" and I nodded yes.

I watched her scream at the top of her voice accompanied by tears...and I heard her say those words several times"I feel used"

She fell into my arms,and I patted her back.

You're gonna be fine,It's alright to feel used..and it also alright to break down but the important thing is you're okay now.

When she had calmed down..she told me everything about Ray without missing a word. I didn't know if I should tell her he was my best friend..I was scared of her reaction that I kept that aspect from her.We talked at length about family,work and every aspect of our lives..she gave me that not true kind of look when I told her have never dated.
The night came to an end when I took herback home..
I stepped out and open the car for her ..
Thank you for everything she said giving me her killing smile.

Thank you for letting me..so are we friends now?I asked all smiles.

Yeah..sure who wouldn't want to be friends with you..

Wow..my head is bursting.. So can I call you "mariposa"?

What's Mariposa?
It means firefly.
What..I saw her eyes lighten up..wait am I a fly?
I laughed as she punched me playfully.
Noo noo..you just don't know the meaning of "firefly"
What does it mean

back home..
I stepped out and open the car for her ..
Thank you for everything she said giving me her killing smile.

Am not saying I teased

Pleasssss..she begged making me to laugh

On one condition.. You are spending your lunch break with me.

But..oh..fine.I will ,just tell me.

I will during lunch break..I ignored her frown and hugged her.Goodnight Mariposa I said and pecked her forehead.

Goodnight she said almost in a whisper.. I entered my car.and drove away like a kid who just took his first walking step.

Onome
I climbed the staircase like a teenage girl sneaking without her parents permission. The last thing I wanted was my mum seeing me,unfortunately the lights turned up and I saw mum smiling at me..
Mum..
Baby,it's not fair.You don't wanna tell me about your date.
I didn't say a thing but smiled at her..
I know that smile mum said after me,but I climbed the stairs hurriedly and landed on my bed.I tried all I could not to think of everything but I just couldn't. I hummed drunk inlove while showering and went to bed sleepsmilling.
Morning came,I threw my alarm to one end of the room with my eyes still closed..if alarms were humans,I would have killed hundreds.That was the 3rd one I was throwing for d week..and they all got ruined.
I heard that gentle knock that got me frowning.

Mum...

Good morning baby.. how was your night?

It was fine..morning mum.I opened my eyes gently and smiled at her.

Baby can we talk when you get back from work today?

Sure..I said standing up,and heading for the bathroom almost immediately.

Can I pick up your outfit for you?

I heard mum say from my room

No mum..have picked it out already on my head.I let the water carress my body thinking about my lunch date with Ehis.I got clad on a white jumpsuit and orange blazer,.applied a little makeup with my hair styled perfectly,I carried my white Gucci bag and left after pecking mum.

Just when I had put my car to an halt,I got a beep from my phone.I smiled when I opened it.
"Morning Mariposa,just a remainder not to forget our lunch date".

We had exchanged numbers during our date the previous night..I rested my back on my car while I texted him back.

" I won't, as long as you tell me the meaning of Mariposa".

I smiled as I greeted everyone I met at the elevator down to my office.

Am sorry..I should have called at least when you said you weren't feeling too fine ,my secretary said the moment I walked inIts okay, am all good today

Lunch break came and as expected Ehis showed up at my office with flowers.He was clad in a navyblue suit which hugged his body perfectly.I couldn't help but stare at him,gosh he was just too cute for a" doctor".I could bet ladies were praying to get I'll for his sake.

Hi beautiful he said..bringing my back from my thoughts.

Hey..hi..I stammered trying to get hold of myself.

You look breathtaking he complemented

You don't look bad either'

And your office suits your kinda person,I must say it's nice.
Thankyou.

Shall we?he said

Yea sure...we walked out holding hands..I could see lot of angry stares from the ladies and jealousy from the men's but that wasn't my problem.. I couldn't understand the warm feeling I felt or the butterflies dancing in my stomach.

He took me to one of the best eateries,he had made special reservations earlier...I could see eyes feeding on us,a careless waitress had even fallen with her tray of drinks staring at us'..I only prayed it didn't cost her..

Are you okay?he asked when he noticed my mind was far off.

Yea..Isn't this too much?for only a lunch..Thankyou.

You worry too much..Just make an order of what you wanna eat alright,nothing is too much for you.

I smiled shyly and turned to the waiter'

So what does Mariposa mean?

Uhm..okay'

It does mean firefly ,When fireflies come into our lives they are there to guide us to ways of living that are more earth-friendly, and soul-friendly. Fireflies teach us the value of living simply, and relying on our own inner voices for illumination. Fireflies also come to us with a message of creativity, and remind us that our paths are made lighter by the beauty that we allow into our lives.
So you are my firefly'

..I...I..I stammered.
Shh..he interrupted, let's get back to our meal.

I smiled at him,then at the food..there was something about him that made me feel at home.
**********************
Raymond

I had contacted my car dealer and ordered for toyata Camry 2.2 the a month ago .. I had wanted to give her as our wedding present but I couldn't wait anymore. I was ready to get my woman back no matter the cost.She had complained of been the only one taking cabs at her office,and maybe I could win her heart back with it..

I dailed her number for the umpteenth time but my calls were diversed into voicemail. I drove to her house like a wounded animal.

My world came crashing when I saw my very Jessica in the arms of a woman..she moaned loudly unaware of my presence.

Jessica..I screamed surprised at my own voice.

Oh Ray...come join us she said not even sparing me a glance.

I felt tears fall from my eyes.. this was more than I could take...

I dragged my feet from the ungodly sight and drove away'

I wasn't gonna be the loser I kept saying to my self as the tears spilled uncontrollably.

Yes..I could never be a loser,I was gonna apologize to Onome and move on.I knew just how much she loved me...she would take me back.I changed directions and headed for her office..
