*** ‘darling wake up….else we would be late ….we have an appointment with the doctor….’ Boma shook his sleeping wife gently…. ‘hmmmmm…..’ she turned on her side….she couldn’t let him go, no, not when he was about to kiss her…. She always saw his face in her dreams…that moment was theirs alone…he was saying something about getting married to her and starting their family…. ‘kiss me my love….kiss me ife mi’ Yinka stared deeply into her eyes…. ‘I would do anything for you baby….’ She whispered and clamped her hands round his waist as he pulled her gently towards him…. His mouth tasted different… he smelt of brandy and chocolates…but she loved it….she loved the way his tongues danced in her mouth…she wanted more from this kiss….she couldn’t get enough of Yinka…. ‘touch me baby…’ she moaned softly…it felt so real….felt like magic as his hands caressed her laps…she was loving this…. Boma smiled happily…his wife had finally agreed to his needs…he loved the way she acted….like she was asleep but still commanding him …he knew what Ife liked and he would give it to her…. ‘I will touch you baby….’ He replied and lay beside her….it had been long he lay so close to his wife…they quarreled most times and over trivial issues…. ‘yes…do just that darling….’ She smiled as Yinka broke the kiss and caressed her laps… ‘I love you so much Ife….’ Boma groaned and bit her ears softly…but the thudding of the door brought this special moment to an end…. ‘Boma!’ Ife screamed and sat up… what was he doing in her bed? She quickly opened her panties and checked if he’d done anything wrong to her body…. ‘yes darling…let’s continue where we stopped…’ he ignored the knocking…he was quite sure his mother was at the door…hell. She needed to give them privacy…. ‘continue what? What are you doing in my bed? Are you trying to rape me?’ she gasped at the possibility…what was going on here? she was kissing Yinka in the dream and he caressed her body…how come Boma was the one in her bed? ‘excuse me? Are you drunk? What are you talking about’? Boma suddenly lost interest in his wife…why did she cease every opportunity to insult him…even this early…. ‘you havent answered my question…what were you doing in my bed Boma? I thought I told you I was seeing my period….why can’t you be patient?’ she was agitated…. ‘calm down Ife….maybe I misinterpreted you….forget this ever happened….i came to inform you about our appointment with the doctor this morning…you should prepare….’ He felt hurt by her rejection, but he wouldn’t show it… ‘oh, so you already fixed an appointment eh?....let me freshen up…see you in thirty minutes….’ She paused as the knocking resumed…. Who on earth would pounce on her door that early? ‘Boma….warn your mother…cause am very sure she’s the only one capable of doing this…’ she hissed angrily…that old witch wouldn’t spoil her morning…. ‘hey calm down…let’s see what she wants….’ He walked slowly and opened the door…. ‘What are you doing here’? Ife exclaimed as her sister walked into the room with her luggage…. ‘I’m so sorry to barge in on you two like this…. Goodmorning In-law….’ She smiled at her sister’s husband…. ‘and morning to you Moji….let me give you guys some space…darling hurry up…remember our appointment….’ He returned Moji’s smile and walked out of the room…. ‘Goodmorning Ife….am in real big trouble….’ Moji sighed and fell on the bed…. The only person that could solve her problem right now was Ife… ‘what’s going on Moji….are you travelling somewhere?’ she wondered why her sister had two large boxes in her possession…. ‘it’s a long story sis….but I’ll be brief about it…so yesterday I got a sack letter and my rent also expired last week….i’ve used up all my savings….can I crash with you here for few days? I promise to find my way out when I am buoyant ….’ She hoped Ife would approve… ‘whoa….and you had to come now? You know I was about coming over to your place…this isn’t a good time Moji…but I have no other choice but to let you stay….just be careful around here….my mother in-law is around and she’s difficult to please….so…welcome…’ she hoped her sister found a place as soon as possible… ‘yay! Thanks my dear sis…how about Boma? Do you think he would approve’? Moji was concerned… ‘Sure….Boma would do absolutely anything for our family….’ Ife replied…. ‘then…I’m ready for breakfast….’ Moji announced excitedly and ran out of the room…. ‘funny girl…I hope you find your own place….’ She mused and picked up her phone…. She needed to speak with her baby…. Yinka was etched permanently in her mind and she couldn’t get her mind off him…. ‘pick up baby….’ She dialed his number…. ‘hello Ife….’ He sounded unhappy….she could read him like a book…. ‘Yinka? What’s wrong…..? you aren’t your cheerful self…’ it wasn’t that difficult to know when he was sad…. ‘it’s huge…I’ll call you later…okay? I love you baby’ he had to be honest with her….he had to let her in on the lion’s plan….maybe she would have a solution… ‘okay dear…I understand…bye….’she closed her eyes and wished she could take his pain away…. …………………………………………….. ‘what do we have here’? Moji opened the cabinet in search of some cereals…the dining room was empty and she wondered if Boma and Ife had anything to eat…. She dropped the pack of golden morn and decided to make some breakfast for them both….she was an excellent cook…and the least she could do was to offer them her culinary services why she crashed with them…. ‘irish potatoes it shall be….’ She fetched a chopping board from the cabinet and placed the potatoes in a clean bowl set for peeling…. This was the toughest decision she’d to make…she hated bothering Ife about her problems…she had helped their family a lot….Seun’s education abroad wouldn’t have been possible without Boma’s sponsorship….she had a lot of respect for the man…he was very kind and generous…. Her only prayer for them both was for God to bless them with their own child….. She heard some footsteps approaching the kitchen….she turned around and faced an old woman….Boma’s mother…. ‘Good morning Ma….’ She bent her knee as she greeted the woman…. ‘morning….’ The woman observed the strange looking girl steadily….who was she and what was she doing here? ‘I am Ife’s younger sister….i came on a visit….’ Moji quickly added as if she’d read the woman’s thoughts…. ‘hmmm welcome….’ The woman replied and walked into the kitchen…. ‘Mama what would you like to have for breakfast? I am already preparing something here…or can I fix you a toast’? she smiled kindly at the woman…. Maybe Ife was exaggerating because the woman didn’t seem that horrifying…. ‘ehm….i wanted fixing Breakfast for Boma…your sister has been starving my son….look at the time she wakes up….but since you’re here…you can do that for me…thank you….’ She wondered where Ife had gotten her character from, as the girl that stood before her was far different from her disrespectful mother in-law…. ‘are you sure you don’t want anything Mama’? Moji pressed on….the woman reminded her of her late grandmother…. ‘no child… I don’t eat in the mornings….hurry with the food…I shall return soon’ she smiled at the young woman and strolled out…. ……………………………………………… ‘this taste so good Mama….i really appreciate your efforts….’ Boma sipped his coffee, feeling satisfied with the breakfast he just had…. There was nothing like a mother’s cooking…. ‘I didn’t prepare that’….the woman was displeased with her son’s non-chalant attitude towards the things that went on in his house…. ‘wow….then who did? Who could cook better than Mama Boma’? his attempt to make her smile was futile….so he gave up…. ‘look here Boma…..you need to send that woman away…so tell me, If that young woman wasn’t here to make you breakfast…you would’ve gone to work on an empty belly….’ ‘Mama…what are you talking about’? he peered at his watch and wondered why his wife hadn’t yet showed up…. ‘I’m highly disappointed in you Boma….sometimes you make me wonder if I truly gave birth to you….you disappoint me greatly….’ She hissed and walked out of the dining room, as her haughty daughter in-law walked in…. ‘I’m set Boma….’ Ife pawed sweetly and gave her mother in-law an icy look…. ‘so? Aren’t you gonna greet my mother’? why was his wife this difficult…. ‘well…lest I forget….Moji would be staying with me for few days….i hope you don’t mind….she can help with the house chores and cooking…so let’s go’ she walked out ….wondering what the scowl on her husband’s face was for…. ‘I hate that I love you Ife….’ Boma was greatly infuriated by her insolence but he would tolerate her…he would do anything for her love…. **** Chidinma stared at the young lady that walked in unannounced…. She was a bit surprised by the words that she’d uttered…. ‘So Ma, how is work’? Ego ignored her friend completely and faced Mrs Oluwatosin…how could Imaobong do this to her? What would Mrs Oluwatosin take her for? What if the woman thought her a gold digger? Her friend had gone too far this time and she had to be put in her place…. ‘I don’t work Ego….’ She knew the outbursts of the other young woman had unsettled Ego…she was immediately uncomfortable…. ‘good morning madam…’ Imaobong finally recovered from her embarrassment…one look at Ego’s tight face was enough to let her know that she was in trouble….but who could blame her? She was over excited for her friend…. ‘morning my dear….welcome…’ Mrs Oluwatosin glanced at the young lady once more… no, she wasn’t going to be discouraged….the young woman seemed rash and somewhat loud…she hoped Ego didn’t share some of her characteristics…. She ignored the words she had heard earlier and decided it was irrelevant to her purpose of visiting Ego…. ‘so my dear….i want you to come and dine with me tonight’ she watched Ego’s face closely….. she knew a gold digger when she saw one…but Ego was neither a pretender neither was she a greedy person…. Chidinmma trusted her heart….it never failed her…. It wouldn’t now…. ‘dinner with you’? Ego was thrilled by the invitation….but was it necessary? It appeared the woman wanted repaying her for saving her life that day….. But she wouldn’t have it… she did it out of her goodwill and not for any kind of material gain…. ‘yes…don’t you want to taste my cooking? Come nne, I will make you Abacha….please….’ Chidinmma wouldn’t let this one go… ‘please don’t beg me…I would come for you Ma….’ She was secretly excited about the whole thing…she wondered if Olayinka would be present… ‘okay then …I have an appointment with my doctor….give me your number so we could keep in touch….’ Chidinmma was pleased by what she’d achieved so far…. ‘here it is Ma….’ She handed the woman her complimentary card…. ‘okay….have a nice day Ego, I’ll be expecting you…come around 6p.m….don’t be late….’ The woman reached out for a hug which Ego couldn’t refuse… She was starting to like this woman… ‘I’m so sorry Egodiamaka….i never knew you had a visitor…I would never have done something like that….’ Ima walkd to where her friend stood immediately Chidinmma closed the door behind her…. ‘how could you do this to me? That woman would have a bad impression about me….do you even know who she is?’ Ego hissed angrily… ‘no…but I am sorry, I didn’t mean for that to happen…please believe me’ Ima couldn’t piss of the only friend she’d made since she started walking with SAZAD foods…. ‘that is Yinka’s mother….the woman that got shot close to my house….you’ve ruined me Mimi…how could you? Why do you always do this to me?’ Ego bit her lip …. ‘my god! I’m so sorry….’ Ima gasped….she prayed she hadn’t ruined anything…Ego would be so mad at her…. ‘just forget it…let me be on my own for a while….’ She settled in her chair and ignored her friend totally…but Ima wouldn’t budge…. ‘I said am sorry…you can’t get rid of me…I know I make you angry mostly but I am still the only friend you’ll ever have….i understand you Ego and I don’t judge you….if this makes you happy….we have both been selected for the training at Olive Groves corporation’ Ima winked at her friend…praying Ego would even look her way… Well, it sure did…. ‘wait are you serious? That name sounds familiar…isn’t that where Yinka works’? Ego’s face brightened… ‘yes I told you that minutes ago…but you’re wrong…Yinka doesn’t work there…he owns it…’ Ima replied…she couldn’t wait to go over there…. |

*** ‘bring me all the files from the legal department….there’s something I want to check….’ Yinka called out to his secretary…. He’d just finished speaking with the manager of SAZAD foods and the man had brought a proposal….it seemed fair…. It would be a kind of industrial training programme for the workers who were being chosen to represent their company….but it all rested on the lion….the old man who was about to ruin his life…. He just couldn’t imagine getting married to someone other than Ife….it wasn’t going to happen…the old man was just making empty threats…he wouldn’t dare tamper with the family business by disinheriting him just because of some stupid game…. He would call Ifeoluwa later …he missed her already….he remembered how he made love to her in his office….he shook his head and smiled…. ‘things we do for love’ he mused as he went through some files….she was just the woman for him….even the way she made love…she knew how to give and receive pleasure…. ‘knock knock’ someone tapped on his door….it had to be Ngozi his secretary….the girl was just clumsy…he’d wanted replacing her times without number….but she managed to persuade him with some sorry story about her mother who has a cardiac problem and needs money…. Well, he wasn’t a devil, he was going to tolerate her as long as possible, till he found someone better than her…. ‘come in Ngozi…’ he replied…. ‘Ngozi? Is that your latest chic’ a familiar baritone replied…. Yinka raised his head up and smiled….it had been so long, okay it was just six months…but he’d missed his friend badly…. ‘Yomi….you’re back….you didn’t tell me…I missed you badly guy’ he gave him a bearhug and they both shook each other…. ‘I called….maybe you were too busy to pick it’ Yomi replied and settled in one of the chairs…. ‘whoa….am sorry bro…I was busy at the time….’ Yinka quickly went through his call log and was amazed to see that his friend had called him approximately seven times….but he’d called at the time…Ife had come to visit him…. And that was bad timing….. ‘busy you say? Man you still look as fresh as ever’ Yomi had gone for a six months training in Qatar, as it was the norm for Olive Groves corporation to send their workers abroad for training yearly….he was quite happy he’d returned home to Nigeria…. ‘so how many arab girlfriends do you have now’? Yinka raised his brows and focused on his friend…Yomi was a die hard player…..that was what made them different….he was a hit and run type of guy…while Yinka was a faithful lover…. ‘guy….bone dat tin….i had to enjoy myself sha…but them arab girls aren’t to be compared with Naija babes….dem lack assets…you know what I mean?’ Yomi winked and crossed one leg over the other…it felt good to be back…. ‘hahahahaha….you have to change….’ Yinka chuckled softly…. ‘so what about your madam…are you still bleeping her?’ he referred to Ifeoluwa….Yinka was the closest friend he had and they told each other everything….though he’d disapproved of Yinka’s affair with Ife…he wouldn’t listen… ‘she dey o…..but Yawa don gas….’ Yinka had a lot to tell his friend …. ‘guy….i hope say her husband never catch you o…’ Yomi sat up…eager to hear more…. ‘that would’ve been better…..’ his grandfather had really put him in a tight corner…. ‘wow….then this is bad….i warned you about her Yinka…now she’s about messing up your life….’ Yomi shook his head sadly…. ‘no…she’s not the one that wants to mess up my life….it’s my grandfather….’ He replied… ‘the lion? Ko ye mi? I don’t understand ….’ Yomi was confused…. ‘knock knock….can I come in sir?’ Ngozi’s high pitched voice broke their conversation…. ‘you know what? Let’s hang out tonight….we have a lot of catching up to do….’ Yomi rose up from the chair…he had enough work on his table too…. ‘no problem Yomi….see you later then….’ Yinka nodded at his friend…just like old times, they would catch some fun…. ‘come in Ngozi….’ he beckoned her in….he didn’t miss the lustful desires in Yomi’s eyes as he stared at the young girl…. He would call him to order later…. *** ‘good morning all….’ The manager addressed the workers….there had been a slight change in the firm and he had to let them know about it…. ‘why does he look so serious’? Ego whispered to Mimi who sat beside her and was too busy responding to her chats on BBM… ‘I dunno….maybe his wife didn’t give him some last night….’ Ima grinned…. ‘so…I called this meeting because it’s very urgent….for now, the seminar would be cancel…we’ll have to resolve this other issue first….’ He paused as some of the workers murmured…. ‘we all know that SAZAD FOODS has one of its roughest year of production….and it’s a miracle that we have been able to continue without having to retrench some workers…however, ’ He paused again as the murmuring heightened…. ‘this sounds serious….Mimi, you should listen to this…like we’re about to get a sack letter’ Ego was a bit disturbed….Mr Idris Agbo wasn’t usually this gloomy…. ‘no…you can’t say….’ Ima dropped her phone and looked up…. ‘however….We sent a proposal to the biggest and strongest Company in Africa and the world…. Olive Groves Corporation….some of our best workers would be sent there for training….you see, we can borrow their ideas…we can learn from them….so some workers would be selected and they are to resume with immediate effect….’ He continued…. ‘that is a good idea sir….but what happens to the rest of us’? one worker voiced out his fears…. ‘well…nothing would happen…but this company rests on those six people that would be selected….they need to be make most of it….that is the time they’ll be spending over there…they shouldn’t lose focus…we shall lecture them before they leave’ he concluded the meeting and vacated the conference hall…. ‘wow….that sounds interesting….i know about that company….’ Ima smiled excitedly…she hoped she would be chosen…. ‘wait….isn’t it that company we heard on the news last night’? Ego wondered…. ‘yes it is…the very same one….’ Ima replied as they both returned to their offices…. ‘I’ll be back…let me use the ladies’ Ima excused herself ….while Ego walked down to their office alone…. …………………………………………………… The news had been everywhere,most of their family friends had called her before she’d even gotten the chance to leave the house…. They’d called to congratulate her about the success of Olive Groves Corporation….something Yinka had failed to tell her…. ‘stubborn child…your grandfather would teach you a lesson….’ Chidinma looked around the office and tapper her feet continuously…. She had come to see Egodiamaka and she was being directed to the waiting room beside the main office….she couldn’t wait to set her eyes on the young woman…. She removed her phone once again and went through the fashion blog Tessy had registered her with…..she needed to get busy and she hoped the meeting wouldn’t take so long, she had an appointment with her doctor…. Whatever happened, she could always come back…. ‘madam, Miss Anderson is back’ the young receptionist informed her and she smiled happily at the girl…. ‘thank you very much dear….’ She almost tipped the girl but she refrained from doing so…. …………………………………………………………. Egodiamaka waited patiently in her office for the visitor she had been told she had…..she was surprised as she wasn’t expecting anyone…. The door creaked slightly and fell ajar….then the woman smiled as she saw her angel, the angel that had saved her life…. ‘Mrs Oluwatosin….’ Ego exclaimed surprised to see the woman in her office…. ‘Egodiamaka….how are you doing?’ the woman walked closer and gave her a hug…. ‘welcome ma….please have a seat…what can I offer you? Am so pleased to see you here Ma….’ She was quite excited…and she wondered if he was here? if Yinka was here…. ‘calm down Nne….i am alright…I came to see you ….’ She looked around the well furnished office…. ‘thank you Ma…how is your health? Hope you’re very okay’? she was concerned…. ‘yes dear, all thanks to you that saved me….’ She pointed at Ego…. ‘ No, all thanks to God almighty….he’s the one that deserves all the praise….’ She smiled at the woman…. ‘yes Nne…. You are right, i nwetere ya’ ‘so…Yinka told me this morning you were in some kind of trouble…I hope you’re fine Ego…I was so worried about you…..’ she scanned over the young woman …. ‘he did?’ Ego’s heart fluttered…did he really care about her? ‘Yes dear….’ ‘well…I lost my transport fare and the driver gave me some kind of trouble….’she narrated her ordeal to the woman…. ‘ wow, thank God Yinka showed up….’ She knew her son was meant for Ego viceversa…. Before Ego could reply….Mimi burst in excitedly…. ‘Ego you are a very lucky lady….Yinka Oluwatosin is the boss of Olive Groves Corporation….my dear, you need to hook up with that guy o…as fast as possible….’ She suddenly went quiet as she noticed Ego’s pained expression…..and who was the other woman…..? |
*** ‘wake up sleepy head….’ Ima had woken up earlier than her friend….they had to prepare for the seminar…. ‘hey….can I just have ten more minutes? Wanna complete my dream’ Ego groaned….she was having a beautiful dream…. One of those dreams she usually had whenever she was happy…she dreamt of her parents and herself in a field of flowers….enjoying a picnic together….but she usually woke up feeling terrible…. Just that this one was different, this dream was perfect….because she knew deep down, that she wouldn’t feel bad later…. Her day was going to turn out for the better…because she’d seen him in her dream…and he was kissing her, again. ‘what’s that smile on your face?’ Ima wondered what her friend was still doing in bed…. ‘alright….i’m up…satisfied now’? Ego sat up abruptly….then she yawned and rubbed her tommy…she needed to take her breakfast as soon as possible…. ‘what time is that seminar again’? Ego replied feeling sick as she stared at the bedside clock…. ’10 o’clock….we still have time…more like two full hours…so chic prepare’ Ima patted her on the back and left for the bathroom…. ‘do you mind closing the door….’? Ego called after her…she didn’t want to inhale ammonia that early…. ‘whatever’...Ima rolled her eyes…. ‘I have a bad feeling…you know…like something unpleasant is going to happen….’ Ima continued…. ‘am not hearing you’ Ego deliberately ignored her friend…. Without much wasting of time, she walked to the kitchen to fix herself a toast…luckily there was electricity….it just made everything easier for her….. ‘so? Am back’ Imaobong washed her hands in the sink nearby and joined her friend on the table… ‘why do you have a feeling something bad is going to happen’ Ego asked as she poured some milk into her coffee… ‘hmmm…I just feel it….’ Ima replied trying to shake the feeling off… ‘or your prophet told you so’? Ego winked…. ‘hold it right there girl….that man, is genuine….what he says comes to pass…look at my engagement to Bruce….he had foreseen it….i seriously wonder why you keep doubting this man….’ She regretted taking Ego for the program…. ‘okay…no fighting….on the other hand, I feel today is my lucky day…you know one of those days you wake up on the good side of bed….’ She threw her hands in the air… ‘sure….just that my left eye keeps twitching…that signifies doom you know’ Ima couldn’t help being cautious…such signs stood for something…. ‘superstitions….Nigerians for you….’ Ego chuckled softly…. ‘so how did you get home last night’? Ima decided to change the topic…. ‘uhmmm…remember that Yinka guy I told you about’? Ego dropped her cup and shifted closer to her friend…. ‘yes? The rich guy…the one whose mother you saved….’ Ima replied… ‘sharp girl….he came to my rescue…he just showed up suddenly, I was flabbergasted….like he was an angel….he even paid my way back….i think he’s a nice person….’ Her heart fluttered as the memories rained down on her… ‘hmmm…Ego, I hope you aren’t falling for this guy o, see the way you’re just praising him…be careful….by the way, do you have his picture’? Ima was curious…. ‘no….i wouldn’t lie to you Mimi but I feel something for this guy…I’m a bit surprised at myself cause I don’t usually do this….tripping for a guy so fast….he’s just so different…’ she paused and remembered the lady that was with him…who was she? ‘is it okay if I check him out? And by the way….what do you hope to do with this guy’? ‘well…nothing….what kind of question is that? I just like him…he rescued me…that’s all…’ Ego was lost for words….what did Mimi expect her to say? Mimi was an extrovert to the core…and she was quite forward when she liked a guy, she could walk up straight to him, and tell him about her feelings….but her, she was wired differently… ‘so you just want to be a secret admirer abi? …no problem….i’ll check him out….what if he has a girlfriend or a fiancee? Have you considered that before nurturing feelings for him’? Ima knew how Fragile Egodiamaka could become when she truly liked something… ‘I don’t know…but I saw one lady in his car….never mind…just check him out…’ she stuttered…. ‘hmmm…what’s his name again?’ Ima asked… ‘Yinka Oluwatosin….’ *** Chief Gbenga Oluwatosin sat cross legged in his rose garden….life had never been so good….finally he had peace…he was satisfied with his life generally… He’d spent a good number of years on earth…and within those years he’d worked hard and built a business empire that would rise to the apex of the global market one day…. He flipped to the next page of the business magazine and smiled proudly as their name was mentioned yet again….Olive Groves was in its time of glory….and he prayed within him, that it would never fade…. He had his grandson Olayinka and his first son Vega to thank for…his late son Tony, wasn’t very interested in the family business….thankfully, his son hadn’t taken that from him… It baffled him sometimes, that Yinka looked more of his uncle, Vega Oluwatosin …in deed and character than his late father…. The young man was very responsible and industrious….but the lion felt he was overdoing it…he had become too absorbed in work to see other things that mattered in life… One of such things was a family…a beautiful and united family and it was best to start a family early…. He smiled mischievously as he remembered the expression on his grandson’s face when he’d read the statements of his will…. He’d meant every word though, Olayinka had to get a wife…he had to settle down…all his grandchildren had to settle down….even his favorite….Tessy. He had his plans for her…but they would tarry…. He enjoyed her company and wouldn’t let her go that easily…. ‘look who’s here…’ a honeyed female voice broke into his thoughts….and he knew the owner of that voice instantly…. ‘Olateni…..come over here…I’ve missed you girl… Aro re so mi.’ He drew her closer to himself… ‘grandfather? Missed me? I paid you a visit last week remember? And don’t pretend you have amnesia because you don’t’ she kissed his forehead sweetly and he smiled…he was a happy man…beyond blessed to have such a granddaughter…. ‘have a seat….what would you like to eat’? he faced her…. ‘I’ve had breakfast already…maybe I’ll take lunch but I’m fine grandpa….i missed you two’ she smiled at him… No one could understand the bond she shared with the lion….where he terrified everyone, including his own sons….he amused her … She was the only one that could understand her grandfather….the Lion was a very complicated man…yet so down to earth… He possessed a heart of stone….but deep down he was very emotional…though he hardly talked about his feelings…. ‘So….how’s your cousin taking it’? he hoped Yinka wasn’t planning on wasting his time…. ‘Truthfully, from the look on his face…I think he wouldn’t go through with your plans…he’s bent on not getting married….he keeps saying he isn’t ready’ she explained to her grandfather…. Yinka wasn’t being totally honest… The only reason why he had refused to get married was because of Ifeoluwa…how could he sacrifice his whole life for that LovePeddler? ‘really?....what makes you think so? Is there something I’ll love to hear Teni’? her angry expression hadn’t passed the lion by…was he being kept in the dark about something? ‘nothing…it’s just that I saw the way he looked this morning…he isn’t ready grandpa….’ She lied…she couldn’t tell the lion about Yinka’s affair with a married woman… He would’ve been so disappointed in him…. ‘well…I’ll startle him…I’ll put fire in his chair…i am always patient…but I need to set up my plan B….’ he rubbed his chin thoughtfully… ‘plan B? what’s that’? she wondered what her grandfather was up to…. ‘I’ll need your brother…..he would be useful in this game….Yinka would have to obey his grandfather ‘I don’t think that’s a good idea…you disinherited him remember? You’re not his favorite person right now grandpa….just let it go…Yinka would do what it’s right when he is ready…’ Tessy didn’t like the idea of Dami coming back to Nigeria…. Truthfully, she wasn’t that comfortable with her brother and Yinka seeing each other…..those two had bad blood between them, it was better the lion kept Dami out of it…. ‘so tell me…..when are you getting married? I should arrange a fine man for my princess’ he winked at her….she was so beautiful, just like Margeret, his late wife was…before the drugs took over her... ‘come off it grandpa….i’ll do fine choosing a man by myself…I don’t want your games o….so how are you doing…when do we get to celebrate Yinka’s success…though he failed to mention it…I saw it on social media’ she tried changing the subject…. ‘hey…don’t play smart…tell me when you’re getting married’ a smile played on the lion’s face…he was teasing his granddaughter… ‘grandfather you’re scaring me…..i’m still in my early twenties okay? We shouldn’t even be talking about this….’ She rolled her eyes… He observed her for a while, she was his little princess….something bothered her…he read her like a book…. ‘you miss your parents?’ he arched a brow….his first son had taken his wife on vacation to Greece and they’d cruelly left Teni behind….. ‘kind of….but that’s not what’s bothering me….’ She looked straight at him and wondered how her question was going to sound…. She was curious, for many years…no one spoke about her late grandmother, Margeret Oluwatosin but her father usually told her she looked like the woman…. She saw pictures of the woman quite alright, but her children and husband, the lion rarely spoke of her….she had to know more about her grandmother…. ‘what is it child’? the lion wondered what could sadden his little princess this much…. ‘don’t be offended o….can you tell me about my late grandmother? I want to know more….’she stroked her fingers anxiously…. The lion didn’t respond…he simply stared at her for what looked like ages….how could he bring himself to tell her about her devilish grandmother? His marriage to Margeret had been a total mistake… She wasn’t worth remembering….she had cheated on him severally and had made several attempt on his life…. He cleared his throat and tried to find his voice….he leaned back on the chair and searched for words…but they eluded him…. Luckily, his phone rang and broke the akward silence…… ‘excuse me Olateni’ he picked up the phone briefly…hoping she would forget about the matter when he was done talking with whoever had called…. ‘Good morning Sir….’ The caller was the first to speak…. ‘morning….this is’? the lion hadn’t bothered checking the caller identity… ‘Mr Idris Agbo….the manager of SAZAD FOODS LIMITED…..’ the man paused after introducing himself…. ‘oh….Mr Idris….i remember you very well…but you should be talking to my grandson Olayinka, he is the C.E.O of olive Groves Corporations right now….’ The Man had visited him some months ago with a business proposal, which he was yet to look into… ‘I did….but he said I should clear with you first….that you have the final say sir…’ Idris replied…. ‘good good…what was that your proposal about’? the older man tried recollecting…but he couldn’t …. ‘SAZAD FOODS would love to send six of her workers to the Olive Groves marketing and administrating department for a six months training….’ He explained…. ‘oh? So what did Yinka say’? the lion wondered why his grandson hadn’t called him personally…definitely, the boy was still angry with him….but it was for the best… ‘He read through the proposal and said it was okay….’ ‘good good…..then I approve…have a good day Idris…’ he ended the call and faced his lovely granddaughter… ‘Teni….we should go have lunch…I am hungry….’ he walked towards her and rubbed her head…. ‘lunch? It’s still morning sir’ she wondered why her grandfather had to ignore her question….she would find out soon enough…. ‘hmmm…..okay….let’s have some fruits then…after which we would go horse riding’ he hoped she had forgotten about the Margeret issue…. |

SONGS OF LOVE(A SONG FOR BOLA) EPISODE 20 BY ROSE AKPABIO *** ‘good morning my children’ Makanjuola called cheerfully as the trio walked into his room…. He couldn’t miss the sad expression on their faces and he wondered what had happened in his absence… ‘where’s your mother’? he was glad to be back home…had Evelyn finally abandoned him totally? As she always threatened…. ‘Dad how are you feeling’? Bola forced a smile….she’d had a long talk with her siblings and had decided it was best for their dad to hear it from them than someone else…the pain would be too much to bear…. ‘hey Bola…what is it? Why are you wearing this gloomy faces? Aren’t you children happy to see me’? ‘dad….’ Dami started and paused….not knowing how to relay the words to his father…. ‘what is it…where’s your mother…’? ‘She died a week ago….’ Bola quickly chipped in as Fikayo had started crying again…. ‘no, Evelyn?....’ he pressed his hands firmly to his chest as his heart raced….what was happening to him? ‘dad please don’t die….i love you so much’ Bola rushed and knelt beside him….. ‘I am confused Child….what happened to her’? he held her hands tightly…like his life support was there… ‘she died of a heart attack according to Dr. Aliyu….we found her lifeless in the parlor…there was no sign of any ailment…’ Dami explained and handed some documents over to his father…who read through them quietly…… ‘Fikayo….come over here…’ he beckoned on to her….his daughter had suddenly grown pale…. ‘you have to be strong, I know you were the closest to her…but you have to stay strong, you have your whole life ahead of you….Bola wasn’t even this mature when her mother died…but look how she’s doing now…follow her footsteps…your mother was a good woman, though she had her weaknesses…but wherever she is, I’m very sure she’ll want you all to be happy’ he kissed her hair softly… ‘I promise to be strong for you, dad….please don’t die too’ she sobbed and hugged him…. ‘we’ll all pull through this….’ He had to call the chief about his proposal soon…their company was falling apart, it needed resurrection…maybe the merger was a good idea…maybe they needed to be partners…. ‘knock knock….’ The maid walked into Makanjuola’s room…she was dressed in black just like her family who’d begun mourning…. ‘goodmorning sir…please there’s a man outside…he says he came to pay his condolences….’ ‘did he tell you his name’? Dami asked… ‘yes, Vega Oluwatosin….’ The maid replied…. ‘oh, send him in…’ Makanjuola felt honored that Chief’s son could actually visit them…. ‘I need to go to the kitchen right now dad…’ Bola was about leaving when her father called her…she wasn’t prepared to see Vega….he couldn’t see her like this…. Evelyn’s death brought back memories about her mother ….she felt so much pain…he couldn’t see her like that…. ‘Fifi come on…let’s go say hi to Vega….’ Dami beckoned to his sister…. ‘yes dad’? she walked closer to him…. ‘sit…I want to talk to you dear….’ He smiled at his beautiful daughter…. ‘go on dad….’ She wondered what he wanted to discuss with her…. ‘it’s about that young man…I saw the way you two looked at each other ….do you like him?’ he wasn’t blind…. ‘no dad, isn’t he Fikayo’s fiance’? Bola lied…. Why was her father asking her this?.... ‘I know….look up ….Fifi never liked him… I almost forced her into marriage with him….be honest with me…do you two know each other’? ‘yes dad….’ She couldn’t meet her father’s scrutinizing gaze…. ‘well…it seems you aren’t ready to open up to me….but I just want you to know that I approve……’ ‘why dad? You don’t even know him….’ She wondered what her father was getting at…. ‘you are right…I don’t know him…but my instincts tell me he’s meant for you…go now…go see him’ he shooed her away and she laughed like a little girl…. ……………………………………………….. ‘Welcome Vega…..’ Dami offered him a chair…. ‘thanks Dami…how are you Fifi’? this was very akward for him, but he had no other choice but to come see Bola here… He’d gone over to her place but there was no sign of life there and she’d been ignoring his calls…. ‘don’t look at me that way…I totally support you and Bee…’ Fifi brightened suddenly as she saw Vega’s guilty expression…. ‘whoa….okay…so am sorry for what happened…how are you holding up’? his face broke into a smile…. ‘I don’t know…but everyone tells me to be strong…so I’ll be…but it hurts like hell’ she knew she wouldn’t get over this for a long time…. ‘hey…..it’s gonna be fine’ Dami rubbed her shoulders and winked at Vega as Bola walked towards them…. He had to admit that even in her state of mourning, she was still adorable…. ‘good morning….Bola…’ he rose to his feet…. ‘Vega….’ She smiled briefly…wasn’t he ever going to give up? ‘I called you….’ He began but she waved him off… ‘let’s talk outside….’ She suggested and they both walked out to the garden…. …………………………………………… ‘listen Bola…I am really sorry for everything I did to you in the past…I know this isn’t the right time to say this…but I can’t help it…please just give me a chance’ his voice was husky with emotion…. ‘please….’ He begged softly…how long would he be punished for his crimes?.... ‘I’ve broken up with Carol….it’s you I want…can’t you see?’ he wondered why she was silent….this was going to be difficult…. ‘Vega….i know you’re sorry…but I don’t know if I could ever trust you….what if you betray me? What if you hurt me again? I am tired of hurting….i want something real…something concrete…and I don’t know if you’ll be able to look beyond my past…I wouldn’t lie I don’t care about you…I do, but right now am just being careful with my heart…it’s in a really fragile place right now….’ She gave him a piece of her mind…. ‘okay… I would never judge you Bola…I’ll marry you…is that what you want? Closure? I’m ready to do anything for you….’ He was desperate to win her love…. ‘marriage? That’s funny….why would I want to marry right now?’ she chuckled softly and he felt glad he was able to ignite a smile… ‘okay…what do you want me to do?....tell me…I love you so much Bee…’ ‘I don’t know….just make me happy…I’m in a bad place right now….’ She forced a smile… ‘I understand perfectly….i’ve been there once….when my parents got divorced newly…it was very painful for me….’ He unlocked the memories… ‘tell me about your mother…you rarely mention her…’ she was suddenly curious…. ‘well…I lost her a long time ago and it hurts like hell…but I choose to stay strong because I have a father who truly cares for me…I don’t know what I’ll be without the lion….’ ‘the lion’? what was that? ‘oh, that’s what we call our dad’ he grinned boyishly….and she was charmed by it…. ‘oh that’s nice….how’s your brother Tony’? she asked…. ‘hmmm….’ He hesitated…contemplating within, whether to tell her the true story about his break-up with Carol or not…. ‘we had a fight…and I haven’t seen him since then….’ He avoided her penetrating gaze, god, why did she have to be this pretty? ‘a fight? About what….?’ She pressed on…. ‘let’s say he hurt me very much and I don’t know if I could ever forgive him…’ ‘well…whatever your decision…remember life is too short to keep grudges…the sudden death of Evelyn has thought me a lot…we may not have the opportunity to say goodbye…’ she advised…. ‘yes….but he hurt me very deeply…it’s not that easy to let go…’ he couldn’t help it…. ‘well…it’s easy…remember the way you treated me before now? How you humiliated me? And blocked me out of your life?’ she was trying to make a point here… ‘I’m sorry…’ he whispered quietly…. ‘no don’t say that…I’m not going over this…to make you feel guilty….though it was hard for me…I tried and let go …even now, am still trying to look past all those hurts…because I feel something for you…and when you love somebody…you forgive that person no matter the gravity of the crime…so if Tony really means anything to you…you’ll forgive him…am curious though…what did he do to get Vega mad?’ she watched him closely…he seemed like a secretive person…could she handle that? ‘I feel stupid and ashamed of myself for holding a grudge when you easily forgave me…I promise to make peace with my brother when I leave here….’ he was going to do just that…. ‘good for you…’ she tapped her fingers on the table…waiting for his reply…. ‘well….he slept with Carol years ago when I travelled abroad…and they both kept mute about it…I just discovered that recently…’he paused as a smile played on her lips… ‘wow…so you had to act on it…’? ‘I’m not done…that wasn’t the real reason I broke up with Carol…I felt like a horrible person if I just had to wake up and tell her I never felt a thing for her…that was part of it…it was a cover…I realized, what I felt for Carol was nothing but Care…but love …love is different…it’s deeper and it’s wider….and that’s what I feel for you…’ he reached out for her hands…. ‘I don’t know what to say Vega…’ she wished Rose was here to tell her what to do…as her heart fluttered hearing those sweet words from him…he was pouring his whole heart to her…. ‘please say you feel the same way too….’ He tightened his grip on her…. ‘I’m scared Vega….’ She rubbed his fingers with her… ‘okay then….’ He rose to his feet….he was probably going to look stupid but he had to do it anyway…. ‘are you leaving?’ she suddenly felt hurt? Had she pushed him too far? ‘no…I want to give you something special….a song of love…a song for Bola…I know you like music…’ he winked…. ‘are you kidding me? Ride on dear’ she clapped her hands…. ‘alright….it’s a song by John legend… ‘all of me’…. ‘all of me….loves all of you, love your curves and all your edges…you brown eyes and her lips too…..give me all of you….’ He sang with his eyes closed and hoped it worked else he was going to kill his father…. Uknown to them Fifi and Dami had been watching from behind……. ‘bravo!’ she cheered him….she hadn’t felt this happy in a long time….he actually made her laugh while she wore mourning clothes…. And at that moment…she knew Vega would be hers…till the end of time…. …………………………….. ‘he has such a bad voice…John legend would probably arrest him for changing those lyrics…’ Fifi chuckled softly… ‘I bet he sings better than you’ Dami winked at her…. ‘shut up Dami’ she replied….months back when their mother was still alive, Dami’s words would’ve emanated into a big fight…but she couldn’t now, he was all she had left….aside father and Bola… ‘I told you they would be good together….with her he doesn’t get bored….i’m glad she’s happy’ Dami pressed the phone to his ears…. He missed Rose…he yearned for her company…. ‘Fifi…I want to go on a picnic with a friend and I want you to come….’ He couldn’t leave his sister alone in this house….father could do fine by himself as some of their family members had already arrived…. ‘sure….how about Bee…wouldn’t she be interested’? Fikayo was concerned…. ‘well…looking over there….i don’t think she needs our company very much’ Dami smiled and pulled his sister away….they were done spying on Bee and Vega….. …………………………………………… ‘so tell me you love me….’ He released her after he’d kissed the air out of her lungs…. ‘I love you….Vega…’ she searched his eyes for any sign of deceit in them…but she found none….his orbs were filled with sincerity…out of their depths came flames of passion and she was gladdened by what she’d seen …. ‘so….what next’? he tickled her….. ‘what next? Be careful….my dad could work in on us….’she wriggled in his arms…. ‘good…that’s why we should get a room….’ He smiled and winked again…. ‘I’m not doing that with you again….’ She looked away shyly…. ‘really? Somebody is not being honest…..okay…let’s go over to my place and I’ll cook you dinner….i won’t do anything you kick against….i just want to spend time with you Bee…. I love you….’ He pressed his lips firmly to her forehead…. ‘are you sure?’ she looked up at him…. ‘I love you complete…..now go get your backs…I’m taking you home’ he liked the sound of that….’home..’ His house had felt empty and he was forced to go stay with the lion for a while….now he had a reason to go back…. ‘let me pick this….’ She wondered who’d called…. ‘hello good afternoon…is this Bola Makanjuola? A.k.a Bee?’ the familiar female voice asked… ‘yes…and who am I speaking with please’? she’d heard this voice before…. ‘Miss Mo from the golden voice contest….there was a change in the rules of the competition…out of the five selected…I was made to choose just three contestants by the organizers and sponsors of the contest…. After which they would be mass voting at the SONGBET site for the winner….so I’m calling to congratulate you for being the first of the three….while Doshima came second and Carol third…congratulations dear….You shall meet with the organizers nextweek for the trophy…wear something nice…the national television Authority and other mega t.v stations would be there to grace the show…’ ‘I can’t believe this…Voting had started already’? she scratched her head…she’d been shut out of the world too long… ‘yes…a week ago….’ Miss Mo replied…. ‘my step mother died approximately a week ago, so I was too pre-occupied with that to know about the recent developments in the contest….’ She breathed a sigh of relief… ‘I’m sorry about that Bee….have a nice day ahead…’ Vega watched her intently and wondered who she was speaking to….was it a guy? He felt foolish….for having such thoughts…it was unlike him to feel jealous…. ‘I just won the competition’…. She yelled and jumped in the garden…. ‘wow…golden voices? You deserve it love…Your voice is soothing…it is beautiful…pure magic…’ he embraced her…. ‘awww Vega…how long does it take to get to your place? We should hurry? We have a lot of celebrating to do’…. She kissed him briefly on his cheeks and ran to get her bag… ‘I love you so much’ he whispered and felt his lips…. His eyes trailed after her….he’d seen their future…though he wasn’t a seer…the future wasn’t dark like the garment she wore… Neither was it dull like the gray of the sky…. Neither was it filled with flowers like the garden where they’d kissed…because flowers usually faded…. Their future was theirs alone to write…and he was ready….to write a future for them…where love would flow like a river… with no ceasing or unending…. Because they were meant for each other….she was his beginning and he was her end…. EPILOGUE *** ‘Where are you my love’? Vega hadn’t spend a lot of time in the office…he needed to get back to his beautiful girlfriend…. He considered himself the luckiest man on earth….though Bola had asked him to wait till she was ready…his patience was gradually running out….why couldn’t they just seal their relationship? ‘am in the kitchen babe….’ She smiled and stirred the porridge expertly…. She’d missed him so much….Vega was a very nice guy, he had a good sense of humor…his snoring made her laugh….but he had a good heart above all…. ‘what’s cooking’? he winked and loosened his tie as he walked into the kitchen…. ‘your favorite…’she turned and faced him…. ‘I like what you’re wearing….why can’t we just get married Bee….’? She was frustrating him…. ‘give me one reason why I should get married to you apart from avoiding the Merger the lion offered my dad…’ she wanted him to marry out of love and not because of some business deal…. ‘my god? You think I am that shallow to marry you just because the lion suggested the only way he could help was a loan to be sealed by marriage’? he scratched his head…. ‘okay…I apologize…but let’s take things slowly…we’re still getting to know each other….’ She just got to know that his mother, Margeret, was shcizophreniac…..and the lion had once dated her mother…. ‘alright I give up…but I need a kiss right now’ he tapped his lips…she wore a mini skirt and a crop top…she looked very beautiful in her ensemble… He could swear she was pregnant by the way her breasts swelled and shone attractively….that would make him so happy… ‘I don’t trust you…what if you do something funny’ it was Vega’s nature to turn a kiss into love making…she couldn’t risk that…already her period had been delayed for that month …. ‘okay I promise…’ he beckoned to her … ‘I love you darling….’ He breathed close to her neck and glided his tongue down her throat…while his hands rubbed her tender laps…. ‘Vega….you promised not to…’ she moaned…. ‘yes I did…but I can’t keep my hands to myself…’ he undressed her horridly and his hands caressed her tits… ‘you’re killing me softly…’ she pressed herself against him and he covered her mouth with his…. The end. ………………………….. |
