'nothing more' Ade said aloud now, standing up from Jide's desk where he had unconsciously sat during all that musing down memory lane.

'watch out, am coming for you' Ade said to the thin air, looked around the moderately furnished office, adjusted his tie and blew off the imaginary dust from his shoulders, then waltzed out of Jide's office.

When Jide left his office, he headed straight to his father's. It was better to get all the blows today had to offer, he thought.

After that wedding incidence, things became far from being cordial between him and his dad, infact it wasn't only their relationship that had been affected, everyone in his family steered clear from him, and if Jide had glowed in it before, he didn't anymore, infact it added to his pains. Because ever since he started craving for a family with Daisy, the cravings for his
natural family doubled too.

As he walked down to his father's office, which he had rarely entered
the past few months, he longed for forgiveness from him for he too was willing to forgive and let go even his grandmother for their interfering acts.

'goodmorning dad' Jide said soon as he stepped into his father's office.

'morning' his father said without taking his attention from the
newspaper he was reading.

'you sent for me' Jide said when his father didn't say more.

'yeah' he replied, flipping to another page of the paper 'your grandma sent in some items, am sure you know what else to do' he completed, his attention still on the paper.

'and she couldn't call me herself' Jide replied, a hint of rejection in
his tone.

That made his father raise his brows in surprise and peer at Jide from the top of the paper he held. But it happened in a flash, even Jide hadn't noticed.

'okay' Jide sighed and headed out, stopping momentarily when he got to the door and glanced back at the still nonchalant stance of his father.

When the door to his office closed, Mr. Olukoya dropped the paper he had so much been engrossed with and stared at the door which his son had just shut.

It hurt him that his first son had drifted away from him, now he understood why Jide had reacted the way he did and he no longer felt anger towards him.

If anything, he wanted to get back to their former mutual relationship. Even though they hadn't been on a very close level then, atleast they weren't this distanced.

Right now, he could only wish for his son's love and forgiveness, but he wasn't going to push it, if there was anybody who had pride, arrogance and ego in one make up, then that person was Jide, the very child who had taken after him in these traits. Worst still, his was of a modern dimension, they didn't bend easily.

Sighing once more in resignation, Mr. Olukoya went into the business of the day.
