PROLOGUE!!
It was 7pm already in the city of
Abeokuta, and though the night
was matured enought to alter it
darkness, but then someting
was just not right. It was 7pm!
For christ sake and the whole
street of Pansheke was already
desolated. Pansheke area of
Abeokuta had been one of the
of most busy area, especially
with the loud turn out of chunk
of students who ramble along
the road, and the local market
women who found the gloomy
time as the best time to market
their wares. Even that time had
always been the normal closing
time for some civil servants. One
could perceptibly see them,
especially those who didnt own
a ride hiking along the forever
busy street.
But now, it was just 7pm and
not even a trace of student
could be picked or atom of the
market women could be seen.
Even the trekkers & the
commercial vehicles had al gone
into extinction. The whole
surrounding looked like a place
bestowed with curfew.
Only the chirm of obviously the
birds or the likes could be heard.
The skies had given up on the
stars & the moon which also
born the trace of tiny cloud.
Giving little expectation that
would rain. It was a kind of total
weird occurence at Pansheke
that evening.
Meanwhile, at the cross section
of the street, laid a very
beautiful and well decorated
magnific building . The building
with contemporary deco was
surrounded with a massive
enclosure big enough to be
mistaken for Stamford bridge.
From the gate towards the
house laid a fully adorned lawn
with well cultivated and mowed
grass on the right and left flank
leaving a small passage but
broad enough to contain a
moving vehicle. The house was
a duplex with 10 rooms on the
upper floor and a wide sitting
room downstairs to greet any
visitor. Also, the sitting room
contained 2 toilet situated @
right side of it. With a dinning
table and chairs siting corner
somewhere in the siting room.
LG flat screen stayed glued to d
wall facing the entrance with a
well arranged set of home
theatre laid consiously on the
floor below the the flat screen.
“Please dont do this,” Dr Banji
whimpered as audible his gut
could allowed him. He knelt on
the floor with his back and
shoulder forming a crooked
shape, and his head tilted
upward revealing hot tears
dripping heavily from his eyes
while his two palms staying
glued to each other like
someone praying or pleading
vigorously for forgiveness.
Notwisthanding, Dr. Banji was
doing both to the unknown
masked man pointing a black
atomatic to Derick. He was
oblivious of how the horrendous
human got entrance into his
sitting room.
“It is already done doc!” The
unknown masked man groaned
with a kind of husky voice
sending more waves of shivers
to run accross Banji and his son,
Dreick’s spine.
Derick was his only son and he
schooled at one of the prestige
universties. He only came home
to collect somethings which he
was through with and even on
the verge of returning to his
school.
Before *bad fate caught up with
him and now he had black
atomatic gun pointed at his
forehead.
“But who are you, & what do
you want?” Banji wailed ” You
see have got alot of money you
can take away, just dont do this
plss! Dont kill my son!” Banji
again belched out those words
hoping the masked man would
succumb, but instead the
masked man turned to face
Banji with the automatic
grasping it more tightly with
rigor nd positioning it to face
Banji’s forehead.
“You want to know Meeee”? The
masked man brusquely voiced
but still stressed each word
especially the “me” part. “Fine!”
He continued, “I am your doom!
I am the doom you caused on
urself. I am the curse bestowed
on yourself, You’v had enough
chance to to re-write your fate
but you never did. Your myopic
mind was already consumed by
vanities. Now it so unfortunate
but inevitable you will die as a
bereaved, with nobody to hold
your hand nd nobody to survive
you” the masked man spilled,
wavering his head in a gesture
that depict the humane part of
him.
Advancing closely to Banji who
has started too pee, but his eyes
stay glued to the man. He could
see the macho heavily bestowed
on the masked man, coupled
with his heftiness and tallness,
also, the strength he reared. He
could easily swop him for a
wrestler judging from his
athlethic body |
Re: TEMI {MINE} All About True Love And True Betrayal! By Temioluwa Kenny by Nobody: 12:50pm On Oct 30, 2018 |
“So y oou are a dddoom, a
cuurse?” Banji stuttered,
maintaining eyes contact with
his *doom* and indelibrate
avoided Derick, that was gagged
down also secreting large
volume of salty fluid by his
sweat gland through the pores
in his skin. He couldnt even
decipher the whole situation,
her mind reminded him in a
flash how his friend had warned
him not to embark on the
journey to his house. His friend
explained the dreadful dream he
had but instead of Derick to
oblige, he narrowed his words
as one of the inessentialies.
“Yes! I am your doom, i am your
curse!”
“POOOOWWW”
The blare sound from the
automatic filtered into the air
and immediately Derick dropped
Dead!
“Deeeeeeerrrickkk!!!
Noooooo!!!” Banji shrieked,
motioned towards his dead son
and grasping him with a ton of
pain tracted out from him. He
coudnt imagine his the image of
his son lying lifelessly on his
own pull of blood.
“I swear i would qet back to you
evil son of a b---h!” He cursed
postioning his left index finger
towards the masked man
However, d masked man only
shook his head simultaneously
but with a pinch of sympathy
obviously on him. He then
advanced towards the exit from
the sitinq room, when he qot to
the openinq of d exit, he stood
for 2 secs and altered his last 8
words which dropped like a
bombshell “EXPECT THIS, SAME
TIME, SAME DATE, NEXT YEAR”
—– December 25!
“Rinq Riinq Rinnnnq” A nokia
lumia blared out the incomimq
call totally disruptinq the silence
and joltinq up from his
niqhtmare.
“So it was just a dream” Banji
voiced out with perspirations
pourinq off his brow. He was
concerned with his dream, and
that made him totally oblivious
of the strident sound of call
notification rendered by his
lumia.
Howevar, his subconscious mind
vanished when his phone cried
out the fouth time, Banji’s head
quickly swayed to the flank side
where he placed his lumia. It
was an unreqistered number.
“And who the hell could could
be callinq by the dead of the
niqht” he thouqht, before
raisinq face to check his wall
clock.
“12:15” he muttered,
“hello”
“Yes, hello sir,” the caller
responded. “i’m sorry am i up to
Derick Olabanji Daniel’s father
sir”
“Ohh Yes. And who ammm iii i
tta talkinq with?” Banji
stuttered, joltinq his back up,
movinq it away from pillow
with eyes furrowed, an action
that made him look like he was
ready to receive his death
penalty.
Thouqh the caller’s voice
sounded a deep innocent,
notwisthandinq he could still
sense a kind of qreatly hidden
form of despair in the caller’s
tone
“Okay sir, what happened was
that Derick & I were sleepinq sir
and all of a sudden i heard a
loud cry which actually woke
me up, and before i knew it i i i
ffound DDdderick……, he paused
for like 6secs searchinq for d
best euphemism to present d
next word he was about to
drop.
“What happend to Derick” Banji
voiced coldly but qentle enouqh
to kill his shakky tone, sweat
was runninq all over his body
and hand already vibratin like
when nokia 3310 vibrates when
set on vibration, his hand still
qlued to his ear thouqh like
when exactly a flat screen tv
was asked to huq d wall.
“Derick is Dead sir!! The caller
eventually dropped the fours
words like atomic bomb
plaintively.

EPISODE 1.
“Happy birthday to you My
Temi, I wish you lonq life &
prosperity. i know you are not
dead, i know you are some
where, i know one day i will still
meet you” Eliza muttered to
herself sub-coherently. She had
promised herself she wouldnt
not die, not until she touch her
son again. The fantansy she had
conceived for the past 22yrs.
Yes! Exactly 22yrs ago her baby
was decapacitate from on her
on a false medical assertion that
the baby suddenly developed
hormonal contraction few hours
after his birth.
25th of December was the day,
and she had since then kept an
illusive feelinq that one day, her
Temi would walk up to her
make her smile. She however
spilled out those sub-coherent
words on every 25th of
december to boost up her tiny
hope. She knew somethinq was
not riqht when the nurse
announced to her about her
baby deceased, but she just
coudnt probe it out.
“I know you would have grown
handsome like your father, tall
like him annnnd” he bursted
crying. Her husband image had
been one of the virus she
wished she could just format
from her memory, but
unfortunately she coudnt as his
image had kept on haunting.
“hmmmm” Eliza sighed, as her
husband image struck her once
again, she knew her husband
would not feel a dam itch about
where she was riqht now. Of
course, she knew he never loved
her, he only feigned a sort of
emotion towards her to succeed
in grasping her wealth. He
mastered her weak point and he
shrewd on it.
“You stole me away from mum,
you stole me away from people,
hmmm, you make me a nobody!
Dami” she wailed “You
eventually broke my heart into
debris? I thought you love me
Dami?” Eliza had started to
weep this time, she couldnt
even control the the tears
gushind out from her eyes,
make it seems she just lost a
close relative to a fresh death,
totally unperturbed by the
passerby and poured out more
of her hot liquid from the eyes.
She squinted her eyesbrow, and
raised her left hand to hover her
face. Something she did to
prevent her eyes from the
scourging sun.
The type of sun thay shone that
afternoon could send cecity to
the eyes in a jiffy and might as
well burn the body like that of
hell fire.(though have never
been there and i will never be
there)
She tried to use her feeble right
hand to dispel the clump of flies
flying restlessly to have a taste
of the pesky sore sitted below
her kneecap as breakfast or
lemme say brunch.
She counted the money some of
her generous clients had
dropped on the bowl she
descreetly placed infront of her.
“i have made enough for today”
she muttered to herself as she
tot up 525N. “Some clients could
be funny shaa, as they wont feel
any remorse dropping 5N, some
would even demand for change
after dropping 20N. Anyways
she is just a street begger! still
inhaling the oxygen at the lenity
of these her clients” Eliza
thought.
She stoop up on her once sexy
legs that might have sent
hundreds of male folks to planet
pluto during her prime, of her
which was now so wobbly as a
result of some excessive hiking
and pestiferous sore.
She made to leave for for crude
shelter that stood not many
miles away from her business
post or office center leastways.
“Happy birthday to you once
again My Temi. And curse be to
anyone out there who took you
away from me” Eliza voiced
silently clenching her teeth that
depicted anger, hate and pain.
Her memory had started up the
her reminiscent mind, as her
encounter with Dami her long
lost husband started buzzinq in.
An encounter that undoubtedly
changed her life! |

EPISODE 2
30 YEARS AGO!!
“Heyy mum” Eliza shouted, as he
paced forward to hug the
middle age woman who had
also extended her shoulder to
reach for daughter’s huq. They
both stayed glue momentary in
d their warm embrace, swaying
each other from left to right
with smiles clearly expressed on
their faces. It is no argumeny
that the two had been away for
quite sometimes and were just
uniting. The affection imbibed
realy frenzied their untion.
“You are welcome dear, we
missed you” the woman
express, still joltin Eliza to & fro
“Yeah mum, same here too, 18
months were just way to far and
i have been dying hard to be
back here mum'” Eliza explained
still keeping her mouth
grinning. They later disengaged
away from the hug, now staring
at each other eyes with a pure
emotions clearly drawn
“So how have u been doing my
dauqhter” the woman
questioned rhetorically
” Fine mum, you know things
would always be cool over
there,” she quipped, still tryin to
maintain the display of her
crystal white set of teeth.
They both advanced towards
the majestic sittinq room wit
their hands holdinq each others
back.
The look on Eliza face quickly
described her suprise. Her eyes
had scanned the the room and
admitted that the room had
seriously undergone some
heavy chanqes.
The colour of the room which
had already been repainted with
yellow color tinged with
crimson totally rusticated the
sky blue that was formely used.
She knew that would be her
mum’s idea, because she always
knew colour blue had been her
mum greatest antipathy. Also,
the settees and the sofas had
been replaced with crisp
massive new sets. She realy
admired the new interior
decoration employed in the
house.
“You know you still have
enough time to admire them”
her mum chipped in, who
noticed her dauqhter’s eyes
quiverin around. “but riqht now
you have to qo take a bath then
settle for your favourite i
prepared for you”.
“Aiit mum” she nodded, as she
hopped on the stairs up to her
long waited room.
Her room was of medium size
with a cool scenery. The room
had the mixture of cream and
blue colour. It had blue colour as
the background then stripped
with cream colour in a parallel
and horizontal line giving out a
pleasing look of rectangle shape
on the wall. A big round bulb
illuminated the room giving it a
shimmering look. Tapestries
layed comfortably on the wall
with the wall paper of rihanna
staying glued to the wall.
Eliza found out that her room
was clean to her expectation,
she wasnt expeting to meet
dust and rubble everywhere. Her
bedcover had been changed
credibly to her mom.
Then her eyes caught a portrait
of someone on the wall adjacent
to where the wall clock layed
tickling peacefully.
“Who could have put it back?”
She thought, she remembered
vividly that before she travelled
she had fuddled the portrait
some where that could be
mistaken to hade in the house.
Whatever the case maybe, a
disgusting look stood in her
eyes facing the portrait. She
however waived whatever thing
she felt for the picture
momentarily, she wouldnt let
that thwart her happy mood.
________________________________
After about 30 mins, Eliza was
done with freshening up, she
swiftly took a look at her
reflection staring back at her
through mirror, she smiled took
notice of her beauty once aqain.
Indeed! Eliza was a pretty
damsel, a very fair lady in her 24
years but acquisition of a
teenage body. Her oval face
coupled with a set of crystal
white teeth stamped her beauty
with a moderate but soft
bossom. Her long sexy legs
never seemed tired of holding
and carrying her big bum
shooting out apparently behind.
Eliza had a killer body and
definately guys would telleport
from planet pluto just to have
her.
She soon found herself on the
dining table with her mum.
They had a light but warm
conversation spiced with
excessive emotion, while each of
took their time to devour their
plate of amala with ewedu soup
and meat. It was quite evident
they both had missed each
other.
Eliza attention soon swayed
from her food at what next she
saw pacing towards them at the
dining. “OMG! Is this a guy”? She
thought rhetorically as the
charminq fiqure alighted
towards them. She never
remembered she left such a
cutie in their house the before
she left to USA for her Masters
and her mum had never made
mention of anybody now
staying with them since her
arrival few hours ago.
She stared at the fiqure as he
finally advanced towards her
mum, tilted his head down and
jumbled some words |
Re: TEMI {MINE} All About True Love And True Betrayal! By Temioluwa Kenny by Nobody: 2:19pm On Oct 30, 2018 |
she coudnt
grasp into her mum’s ear. She
momentary felt embarrased as
the thouqht of being an
acquaintance in her very home
was sternly visible in the way he
approached her mum.
Nevertheless, that never
stopped the glimpse look she
passed at the him seductively.
“Probably he doesnt know who
i am” she thouqht aqain. This
time she could notice him
handing her mum a crisp naira
notes with a car key and
immediately turned to leave.
“Wait, Dami” her mum coughed
before pointing to Eliza, “This is
my daughter, i told you she
travelled outside the country for
her masters, she just got back
this afternoon”
“Oh realy?” Dami quizzed with
raised eyebrow, “Hello madam”
now turninq to face Eliza with
his hand muzzled out for an
handshake.
“Hiii” Eliza qiqqled, returninq the
handshake, “And you can call me
Eliza” she quickly hinted him
innocently. “Alriqht madam
Eliza, you can also call me Dami”
“hum hum, i said *no madam*,
just call me Eliza” Eliza pointed
and waved his left index finqer
in a qesture pointinq out a
correction. “Alriqht E e eliza, i
had betta qot used to that”
Dami smiled, freed his had and
left the room.
Eliza eyes trailed him from
behind as he paced towards the
exit, with seductive grimmance
curving out from her face. She
was oblivious of her mum eyes
staring at her in ire.”I think you
should know that he is just our
new driver” her mum muttered,
placing an emphasis on the
words “new driver.”
Her mum’s word interuptedly
jerked her off her sub-conscious
state of mind and reviewed the
kind of killer look bestowed on
her by her.
“oh i see” she blurted, before
she stood up from the dining
and hopped up to her room
upstairs.Tbc |

EPISODE 3!
As soon as entered her room,
she pounce on her room, with a
great flop, gouge her head
between her 2 pillows in other
to block her eardrum, an effort
she though would save her from
her mare. She never intended to
fall for any guy at the moment,
not to talk of a cypher, an
ordinary driver. But, the more
she tried to block her thinking
faculty, the more she failed
woefully! She coudnt just erase
the image, the mild smile, the
soft cool voice and the well
rounded cute face. Even her ex
became insipid where Dami was
concerned. The whole of Dami’s
habitus wholesome kept
erupting her mind. She
pondered vaguely on her bed
for some minute, before siting
and soliloquizing.
“No it cant be, Eliza wake up! He
is just a driver, better guys are
out there waiting for you, you
know you wouldnt stoop so low
to go intimate with just a
driver? Just few hours in Naija
and you are already head over
heel inlove ..hmmm, Damm,
what is wrong with me? Am i
going crazy! Am i insane!” Eliza
sprewed those words like a cark
having ignorance of her being
audible enough for any outsider
to eavesdrop.
“Definately this love at first
sight, after all, she cant dictate
for the heart. As the heart
always wants what it wants. But
is she really sure this Is not lust?
No it cant, its pure love from the
bottom of the heart” Eliza mind
pondered thoughtfully. But
then, she recalled how her
mother painted him blight
abrasively, the cold stern look
registered on her face when she
said “I think you should know
that he is just our new driver*
“hmmmmm” she threw out a
sigh. ” if i am not backing out
from this then Mom have to
support me on It” she prayed.
Later that evening, Eliza woke
up and checked the time on her
phone, it was 6pm, she
remembered she was caught up
by sleep while she was thinking
about Dami,leastwise nobody
can cheat on nature. She
wondered if her mom had even
come around to check on her.
She took a long glimpse at the
window and found out that the
sky had betrayed the time, as
the sun still shone broadly and it
threw laser beam from the sky
reflecting very well in the room
through the window blinds.
She decided to take an amble
walk around the house, more
over, she needed to find more
about him. She had decided to
quizz him and make him relate
with her colloquailly. That was
what she wanted and she was
ready to get. Any informatiom
about where he stays, could
help her. She was not ready to
let her charming prince slip
away from her. Damilola.
“Ahh oga welcome, i be dey
greet you the other pimme, as
me and big oga enter u no
hear.” Kofi their spooky gate
man voiced as he saw Eliza was
tramping towards him. He knew
Eliza as his *madam daughter*
because he had been working
with in the compound before
Eliza travelled.
Kofi was a dark black hausa
man, wish i could see any
synonmous word to describe his
type of blakish. But a risible
fellow who always plant smiles
on anybody that bump into him.
He once had an accident that
made his left leg shorter than
the right one and which always
create a funny senery with the
way he wobbled when walking.
“i am sorry Kofi, i guess i didnt
notice you” Eliza replied with a
simper trying to conceal her
laughter.
“OK oga, so wefin me bring
come from U-es-Pa? Kofi asked
again throwing Eliza off her
balance as she gave a wild
derasive laughter.
” You know what kofi ? Its never
called U-es-Pa. Itz called U.S.A as
in United State of America.
Okay?
“Okay oga. Unifed State of
Amelika? Kofi said again.
“okkkk, whatever. I brought
some stuffs for you i know you
will like, i wil bring them over
for you.”
“Ah tanku oga”
“So how about seeing the driver,
do you know where is he? ”
Eliza sagely asked.
“You mean deripa?”
“Yes, where is he ?”
“oga he don goo oh, me don
ofen gate por am since” He
answered waving his hands in
monstrance to buttress what he
said
” Ar rre you sure ?” Eliza asked
with puzzled look hanged on
her face.
“Yes oga” Kofi afirmed
“Okay” Eliza veered towards the
house with discontentment. So
she would be unable to see her
prince charming. She thought
she should go back and ask him
of his appartment, but she later
decided against it. She didnt
trust the lousy gate man, and
even if she got his appartment,
what is she going to do? She can
throw herself just like that to a
guy who is not even aware of
her feelings. Only time will tell.
Her thought came to an halt
with Kofi voice yelling after her,
” Oga seh make i com polet am
for my gift you pring come from
U-es-pay ?” |

EPISODE 4
AFTER 1 WEEK
The whole week was a pack full
of boredom. Her mom was
always going out on business
issues, while Dami had been the
driver that drove her out to
places. So her mother and Dami
were always out together and
most times came home late.
That was unfair on her part, as
the Dami’s work schedule had
not been in her favour.
It had been a week now she set
her eyes on her charming prince,
and that was actually the day of
her arrival. She wanted to know
more about him, get wind of his
intrests, play with him and joke
with him. Every nights she slept,
she always dreamt of having a
relationship with him,
relationship full of series of
mirths, laughter and fun. A very
risible relationship, and
whenever she woke up it
became dawned on her that it
didnt seem her reverie was a
forthcoming reality.
She wanted to quiz her mom
about him, but the killer look
her mum pierced into her on the
day of arrival had always made
her quail.
Her mind had been benumbed,
totally unresponsive to
anything, only the thought of
Dami was allowed. It was not as
if she hadnt fallen inlove before,
she had, but not as compared to
what she felt for Dami now. She
only prayed her love should be
reciprocated by him.
____________________________
It was Sunday evening, Eliza had
been indoors as usual, but being
Sunday made everywhere a
little bit resilient, the reason
that, her mother would stay
indoors too, even visitors would
come visiting. Eliza’s mother
belief was that Sundays are
meant for resting while the
remaining week days are meant
to work and earn more money.
A kind of woman who didnt
indulge lazy people.
Eliza’s mind was still sinking in
its distress, she had hope to see
Dami today but alas, she hadnt
caught a glimpse of him up till
the moment. “Why would i be
expecting to see hims sev, when
the house is his place of work,
and since mother isnt going out
today definately he is not
coming to work” Eliza thought,
incognizant that Dami lived with
them, in a different apartment
laying at the outskirt of the the
same compound and the reason
why she hadnt caught a glint of
him was because he left home
early, before she woke up and
also returned late in the evening
while she would have retired to
bed.
Later that sunday evening, Eliza
plodded out of her room as a
result of fatigue from sleeping
too much. She carried her
drooping body outside their
lawn, before settling down on
white chair placed beside a light
blue iron table. She brought her
new simcard with a phone
along.
She had bought the new phone
with simcard on her way from
the airport, she knew she
needed it because of the
invalidty of her previous line as
soon as she stepped in Nigeria.
Because, the network was not
registered here.
The thought of Dami invading
her mind had not made her
consider their usage.
While she was trying to fix the
device, the phone slipped from
her hand and hit the grass
covered floor, with patency the
grass really helped in preventing
it from shattering into debris.
Immediately she stooped,
reaching out to pick up her
device, a familiar hand swiftly
gripped hers. Eliza tilted her
head to see the face of the
familiar hand, Lo and behold,
her eyes nearly pop out from its
socket beholding who the
person …
To be continued … |

EPISODE 5
The way at which Eliza stared at
the person made it her eye balls
grew too big for the socket,
even at the verge of
combusting. Her mouth also,
was still wide opened like that
of whale that swallowed Jonah.
While her heart momentarily
stopped beating like it had gone
on indefinate strike. She saw
Dami mouth moving, spraying
out some words but it seemed
her ear had also join the strike,
as she couldnt pick out anything
out what he said. She just stood
there astounded.
“Sorry, may i help you with
this?” Dami softly quizzed
producing that wild smile
waived with some sort of *love
pellet* that enchanted Eliza for
days.
“Ohh ok” Eliza nodded
sporadically, jolting back to her
sit with all her numbed body
resuming to work. Dami was the
last person she espected to see
at that time. She wasnt aware of
all the time Dami had spent to
notice her fumbling with her
phone before the phone finally
slipped out of her hand.
Anyways, she however felt good
he came around to help and
probably, she could use the
moment to spice things up for
herself.
Eliza watched keenly how Dami
strainlessly fixed her device up,
he firstly detached the simcard
from it holder, then uncovered
the back casing of her device
before removing the battery
then hitched up the sim inside
the sim connector port beforw
he later punted back the back
cover. What a genius ? She
thought.
Not realising how the little or
tiny things your crush or lover
does, it will always seem great
and intrest you. What Dami did
was not out of speciality, it was
jus a normal thing other guys
out there will do. But the
emotions she fostered towards
him made all what he did
exagerated.
” You know stuffs like this could
be annoying sometimes” Dami
broke the silence,handling the
device back to Eliza. He had
actually noticed the look of
astonishment in Eliza eyes, the
reason ? He didnt know, but
might wanted to know. All he
had to was to feign ignorance
like noticed anyting
“Yeah, exactly and especially to
feminine folk like me” she toned
dabbing the surface of the
device with the hem of the
clothe she put on.. “Anyway
thanks and i think i am owing
you one”
“Owing me one ke ?” Dami’s
mind repeated, while his jaw
instantly dropped. He didnt see
any big deal with his kind
gesture and was not even
expectin any form of reciprocal.
” ohh noope.. I am good, you
woudnt stress yourself over my
flimsy gesture”
“Are you sure”?
“Yes dear..its nothing” he
muttered, also nodding his head
convincingly “had better take
my leave”
“Aiit”
Eliza’s heart didnt hesitate to
puke out throuqh her mouth as
the word *dear* flew out from
Dami’s lips. Her joy knew no
boundary, for him relating to
her romantically means he
definitely felt something for her,
so she thought. And, it actually
did help because it buttressed
what she felt for him too in her
own world of fantansy.
“I would never let you slip away
from me” she thought to herself.
“Hey! Wait”
Dami halted his movements
before tilting his face towards
her “hope no problem dear?”
“Jeeez! He just said it again, he
likes me, i am so sure” Eliza
mind kept bubbling like that of
a secondary school girl in love.
“Hope you can help me out with
driving moro? I will like to go
out, but i am scared, i really
have a kind of phobia for
driving in this country” she lied.
“Hmmmm, Sure, anything for
you dear” Dami thought before
answering. He knew on
Mondays, he was always
resuming his work with Eliza’s
mother after some insipid rests
on weekends. But this particular
Monday, her madam had
informed him she wouldnt be
going anywhere due to reasons
unknown to him.
Probably Eliza knew that and
reason she wanted to make
good use of the lapses
“okie, 12pm moro then” she
uttered softly, forcing out a
feign look that concealed the
happiness dacing inside her. She
watched him closely behind as
he disappeared into the lawn.
“Yes! I am gonna use the best of
my opportunity, Lizzy baby wise
up, you wouldnt want to dull
yourself now” All these words
kept sprewing out of from Eliza
mouth as she advanced towards
their siting room.
“Welcome baby, Dinner is
ready.”
Eliza turned her face up to find
her mom gaze resting on her.
After some minute Eliza settled
down with his mum on the
table. Eliza took her time to
served both of them their dinner
while her mum folded her hands
ajaw.
Alot of thought running rapidly
through her mind, she had
eavesdropped on Eliza and Dami
while they were in the lawn and
apparently, every single words
Eliza peed out from her mouth
had fallen peferctly on her eagle
ears.
Now, she had umistakably
confirmed her fears. She couldnt
fanthom Eliza had quickly fallen
inlove with Dami, a common
driver she just barely a week
ago. And though she had not
even a pinch of faux against
him, as a matter of of fact, she
had always seen him as her
most loyal and trusted employee |
