She disconnected the line and I sighed. About an hour later, Richard called me. “Hello, my Kween. Sorry, I’ve not called you all the while.” “Why was that?” I demanded. “Well, Sola is a little bit troublesome, and she has come with some troubles, as usual.” “What kind of troubles?” He seemed to sigh across the line. “Oh, it’s a family thing. As time goes on, you will understand.” I didn’t like the blank answer he gave but I decided not to press the issue further, at least for now. Few minutes to four o’clock, Richard called again. “Hello, beauty. I’m in Lekki right now. Where’s your office and what time d’you close? I can come around to pick you.” I told him the time we closed and the address of where the office was. “I’m not far from the place. I’ll soon be there. Allow me the privilege of driving you home today.” I giggled. “Oh, it’s kind of you darling Richard.” At four, I packed my personal effects in my bag and awaited his arrival. My phone rang again. “Hello, honey,” he said. “I’m at the car park downstairs.” “Okay, dear. I’m on my way.” I picked my bag and left the office. I took the staircase down and moved to the car park. The staff bus was waiting, but I would not be following it today. Richard hooted the horn of his car to draw my attention. I moved towards it. “Hello, he greeted. “This your office building is a nice one.” “Thanks. How was your work today?” “Fine. I came around here to see some clients.” He engaged the gear and drove to join the main road. “So, how was your night?” I asked. “Lonely. I wished you were with me.” I shook my head. “Why couldn’t I be with you? Is your sister so much averse to my presence?” “Is not that.” “So, what is it? I could see it in her that she didn’t welcome me. Why? The way you acted was curious. Why?” He tried a grin. “It’s just that anytime she’s around, I like to be very careful. Don’t worry a thing, you’ll understand everything as time goes on.” I believed he was not telling me the whole truth, but again decided not to press further. We got to Victoria Island and moved on to Lagos Island. The traffic had started building up. The car drifted along with other vehicles. Several minutes later, we got to Anthony. He climbed the bridge and came down to connect to the other side. We were soon at Town Planning Way. He drove straight to the eatery. “First and foremost, let’s have good food. I’ve not eaten since morning.” We took wheat meal with ‘egusi’ soup and assorted meats. While I ate the food, my mind went over the conversation I had with my mother. As much as I wanted Richard, I was a bit uncertain about this his sister’s angle. But wait a minute. Was I not jumping the gun? Richard had not even proposed to me yet. What if he had nothing like marriage on his mind? “This your sister, what does she do for a living?” I asked. “Mummy owns a supermarket. She works there.” “How many siblings do you have?” “Two. Sola and Lola. Sola is the one you met. Lola is still in the university, studying pharmacy.” I nodded again. If Sola would be my sister in law, then certain ice must be broken. As if he was sensing my discomfort, he quickly added: “They are all very friendly and nice people.” After the meal. He bought two jars of ice cream that we would take home. “Don’t worry,” he said as soon as we got back to the car. “You’ll understand better and you’ll get along with her.” I wondered why he kept using the words, ‘understand better.’ But then, he was most likely right. As times went on, I would surely understand better. He drove back home. In front of his flat was his sister, Sola, already waiting for him.

As times went on, I would surely understand better. He drove back home. In front of his flat was his sister, Sola, already waiting for him.Youre here already? he asked, surprised.Yes.I didn't really like her appearance. Did that mean there would be no intimate moment between Richard and me, just as it happened the previous day?Hello, Sola, I greeted.Hi. It was the usual cool way. Thanks for the ride, I told him and handed the nylon containing the ice cream to him. He quickly removed a jar and handed the nylon back. "That's yours. Well see later.See you, again, Sola," I told her. She briefly waved at me. "See you". When I entered my flat, I became convinced that there was something Richard was not telling me; something which I needed to know without further wasting time. There was simply no way his so-called sister would be having firm grip over him like this. I sat in the sitting-room, took some of the ice cream and put the rest in the freezer. Of course, there was nothing like eating any dinner again that day. I watched the television for some time. In the absence of Richard, I wished Omon could come around. I had got her number, so I decided to call her.Hello, Omon. Are you around?Yes, Im cooking. My mum too is around.That information immediately dampened my enthusiasm.I see.If Im able to finish on time, Ill come.Alright, Omon. See you.Yeah.I cut the line. The probability of her coming was very slim. If Richard too failed to surface, then I would have a lonely night. Few minutes after nine o'clock, Richard knocked on my door. "Hello, my queen," he greeted. It was my turn to act coolly. "Hello." He attempted to kiss me but I stopped him. "You have some explanations to do", I said sternly. He looked at me wearily. "What explanation?" I faced him. I had already thought of the approach to use. "I suspect that Sola is not your sister but your girlfriend". He looked shocked. 'What?" "Yes. That's why the two of you are playing hanky-panky game." He shook his head. |
