--continuation-- Daniel stormed into his office in an angry manner. "Hey Dan, how far with your meeting with the governor?" Magaret asked as he walked past he office, but he ignored her. His angry look was quite evident and curiousity got the better of Magaret who followed him into his office. "Daniel, what's the problem? I was greeting you and asking question but you ignored me. What is it with the look? Who made you angry?" She asked as he approached his standing figure near the window. "If you take one more step there, you'll regret reporting for work this morning." Daniel muttered. "Baby, what's going on? Did I offend you? Talk to me sweet." She stood rooted to a spot. "Can't you get out of my office? I'll be glad if you could do me this favour." Daniel said. "Daniel! Like seriously? You want me out of your office? You call it a favour? Despite all we have been through together, you should at least confide in me and tell me whatever could be bothering you." She said. "Oh my God! Magaret, don't let me repeat myself." The door into the office yanked open and Jimmy walked in angrily. "Seriously man, you fvcked up big time. Even if Tina decides to go the hard way, Chris is still you son and...." His voice trailed off once he saw Magaret standing. "Hey! Jim. Its like you have and idea of who made him angry. Do you care to share?" Magaret came out of her initial shock at the revelation from Jimmy and asked. "Get back to your office." Jimmy scowled. "What?" She asked turning to face Daniel who had an expressionless look. "You heard me and repeating myself could land us both a letter of appointment termination." Jimmy warned. "Andonce you are back in office, send a message to the HR requestion for your transfer. Tell him I want you transfered to the Finance department as the first secretary and the first secretary in Finance be deployed to my office." Daniel said to Magaret's retreating figure. "What? Did I tell you I needed a new secretary?" Jimmy asked facing his friend angrily. "You just got yourself one, so live with it." Daniel replied and walked towards his desk. "Why are you here anyways?" He asked as he sat down. "I came here because of the drama you performed over there. You got it all wrong man and knowing the kind of person Tina is. You know she could be a pretender and all the dramas she gave you was just to make you think she is emotionally weak and with that American beside her, Dan, am afraid you'll find it hard. You never can tell whatever is in her mind. Tina can do and undo, and the last thing you want is this issue reaching the frontpage of the newspapers. Think of Adeola and her family. You are representing her father everywhere, something you never dreamt of achieving. How do you think the man would feel? Even Adeola who supported you to have your son back, at a point, you'll neglect her, afterall, she couldn't give you a child and she will start to maltreat the boy, then you guys will go your seperate ways. Meaning you'll loose your job, loose a larger percentage of your savings, your properties. Daniel, think about the after effect of this." Jimmy explained. "But you asked me to do this." Daniel sighed. "Yes I did, but in a subtle way. Make peace with Tina, ensure that she forgives you. Meet with your son, but don't take him homw. He had lived with his mother since birth, you are a total stranger. Let him continue to live with his mother, pay him occassional visit, and believe me, when he is matured enough, he will balance things himself and you'll enjoy his company as much as his mother. But you must start performing your responsibilities as a father from now." Jimmy explained. ------------------------------------------ "Seriously, I don't know why we are doing this." The only female on the Private Investigation agency that was established by the Late Idris said. "We have been tailing this CRV for hours now and we don't know where it is headed. Agreed, Agent Tina asked us to stop tailing that terrorist and you just came from nowhere to say we must tail this car just because a lady said he knew the boys who were dropped by the roadside. I mean, we should have left since we saw that someone has agreed to help the boys." The lady continued. "Its like you don't get. Agent Tina herself gave me the undercover assignment to monitor this lady and nab her at any given opportunity and one of the boys in question is Agent Tina's son. Let's just tail her for a while." The present head of the private team of investigators explained. "Than you should have nabbed her at the scene where we saw her leave with the boys." The lady said. "Remember, we are not commissioned. We can't make arrest." The man replied. --to be continued-- |
--continuation-- "Are you okay now?" Mark asked as he brought the car to a stop immediately tha traffic light turned red. "Yes, I am. Thanks." Tina replied weakly. "What song collection do you have here?" Mark asked as he rumaged through the disc plates stuffed inside an opened safe. "They are basically Whiteny Houston's albums from the start till date and a couple of Mary J Blige, Beyonce and Janet Jackson." Tina replied. Mark hissed. "These are not my kind of songs. Nicki Minaj and Izzy does it." He said. Tina laughed. "My son loves Izzy Azalea like crazy." "Oh! My kind of boy, harcore rap does it." Mark enthused as he stepped on the gas, once the traffic light turned green. The drive continued in silence until Mark decided to break it, even though he regretted ever doing so. "The angry man at Godson, what's he to you?" He asked. He could sense a change in her countenance, but it was too late to retract his words. "He is Christopher's father." Tina replied as she looked away. "Your ex husband? I mean, you guys divorced right?" Mark asked. "No." Tina said as she fought back tears. "I have never experienced marriage. Never in my life. The greatest mistake I ever made in my life brought about the birth of Chris." With shaky voice, she explained. "You mean....?" He couldn't find the right word to use, but she still nodded in the affirmative anyways. "Am I to turn right or left?" He asked. "Take the roundabout." She replied. Mark carefully followed her instruction until he was safely out of the confusing link roads. Now he could make mistake no more, but the nerve to ask more questions had failed him. The silence had destroyed the mood, but he was someone who doesn't give up. "Do you mind sharing your story?" After a lot of persuasion and shedding of tears from Tina, she agreed to tell him a bit of her story, afterall he was the closest person to her presently and she could tell him some things, provided things won't go sour like it went with Clara. "But, what does he want with the boy now?" Mark asked, once she was done telling her story. "I don't know o." Tina replied. "I mean. He neglected his duties even while you were pregnant, even though you never pestered him for marriage. Just to assist you with the upkeep of the pregnancy and the baby, but he failed. Now that the boy is how old? He is now claiming the paternity of the child. He must be nuts." Mark ranted like it was his business. "Chris will be fourteen next week." She replied. "For about fourteen years and nine months, he was nowhere. Now he is showing up. Tina, this is your fight, it is your life, Chris is your future. In America, the woman own the child. Take legal step before he decides to take a step. Remember, he is wealthier than you are, obviously. He is well connected, you are a government worker, you have the upper hand. Human right lawyers can help." Mark explained. "A friend told me all of this already, but I am not willing to make Chris go through all of this, it is bad for him. That's why I have been avoiding Daniel." "You can't avoid him for life except you are ready to leave the shores of this country. And remember, this is Africa, the man owns the child and if he should take the first legal step, believe me, you'll loose the case." Mark continued. "I don't know what to do." Tina cried. "You can think over it, talk to relatives about it. Whatever you want to do, I will support you. I can always handle Chris, but please, let the boy know the story sorrounding his birth and who his father is." Mark explained. "Okay." Tina said reluctantly. The journey continued in silence, even though, Mark had solved the problem by tuning to a cool radio station where hot jamz was being aired. Tina's ringing phone made him reduce the volume of the car stereo. "Hello?" She said. "Yes?... This is Christina, Christopher's mum. What happened to my son?" She asked in agitation. Mark couldn't hear whatever the person at the other end of the line was saying, but he had a feeling it had to be something bad, considering the way the caller sounded. "You are the school principal? Okay..." She said. "Tell me whatever the problem is, you don't expect me to start rushing to your school, do you?" She asked angrily. "Calm down." Mark whispered. "Oh my God! Kidnapped? By who?... I am finished.... I'll be there in five minutes." She said. He turned to Mark who concentrated on the road like his life depended on it. "Please, you have to turn back, that roundabout, take the right turn, I need to be in Chris school." She said. "What's the problem?" "Just do as I say." Tina cried. The next thing she heard was a click. He had pressed the central lock. "I am sure that whatever happened to your son, the police are on it. Its dangerous for the whole process for you to show up at the school." Despite her fights and struggles, he still kept driving. --tbc-- |
__________________________________________ Jake was seated at a conspicous place inside the popular eatery, Mr Biggs. He has been seated for roughly an hour, but to him, it looked like ten minutes, afterall, it was Serena, the only girl who gripped his heart like it was meant to be. He had a bottle of malt on his table and two meat pies. Even though he wasn't a fan of any of the two. His plan was buying chicken and chips to go down with the wine he brought with him which he intended sharing with Serena, but he couldn't start eating something they ought to eat together, hence, his reason for consuming two things he didn't like. As he picked at the pie, his drink untouched, he watched a family who sat very close to his table as they bickered and chatted happily. The family comprised of the father, the mother and three children. A girl who looked thirteen and two boys who looked eight and from the look of things, they were twins and it seemed they were at Mr Biggs to celebrate their birthday. Jake's mind went back to nine years ago when he clocked ten and ome of his paternal Aunties took him to a treat at a fast food joint around old Ife road, Western Fried Chicken it was called. He remembered how much fun he had in the two hours they spent eating rice, meat pies and Ice creams. Five years later, when he was posted by WAEC to write his November/December GCE exams in Loyola college which was just a three minutes walk from WFC, the eatery he was wat five years ago, he discovered that the building had been converted to an event centre. For the records, whoever owned the eatery lacked business sense for locating such an eatery with high standard equipment and services in an area such as that, when he ought to know that the turnout of people would be low. Old Ife road was never a densely populated residential area. Neighbouring areas such as Agodi Gate was a sixty percent market place and thirty percent residency, but that's not his problem for now. WFC can fold up all over again for all he cared, the most important thing was Serena showing up in her ever elegant apprearance. The thought of that alone sent cold shivers down his spine, but his ringing phone cut short the excitement. And seeing who the caller was, he hissed before picking up. "Hello love." Stephanie said excitedly. "How far?" He replied. "Am okay. I got to your house now and your mum said you went out..." She was saying. "Yes, I did." He snapped. "And your housemaid told me you were dressed like a just wedded groom and you also stole a wine from dad's bar. Can you imagine that funny girl." Steph said laughing. "I'll call you back. I am in the middle of something." He said. "Are you with Henry? Whats with the wine?" She asked. "Steph, I'll call you back. Where are you now?" "Your house of course. Mum is going shopping and she insist I go with her." "Fine. As soon as I am done here I'll meet you at home." With this he hung up and continued waiting for Serena. ------------------------------------------ "Jake has bombarded my whatsapp with messages o. Should I call him back?" Serena asked Taiwo who was engrossed in playing her guitar. "You said what?" She asked. "Jake, he is at Mr Biggs already for the past one hour and he's been sending messages asking where I am. Should I call him back?" Serena repeated. Taiwo dropped her guitar and walked up to join Serena on the bed. "You seem obsessed with this guy and I don't know why." She began. Serena wanted to argue, but with a wave of hand from Taiwo, she swallowed her words. "Why can't he call you?" She asked. "He said he is afraid." Serena replied and Taiwo bursted into laughter. "Okay.... Okay. Lets put him out of his misery. Give me your phone." Taiwo said as she snatched her friend's phone and dailled Jake's number. "Hello, am I speaking with Jake?" She asked. "Yes you are. Serena, is that you?" An agitated Jake replied. "This is Serena's friend. She told me she was coming over to see you and she left my house about an hour ago, only for someone to call me that she collapsed while walking on the road." "Oh my God! Where is she now?" Jake asked. "Group medical, you know the place, don't you?" Taiwo replied. "Of course, I do. I'll be there before you know it." He had said and Taiwo hung up immediately and bursted into laughter. "I didn't collapse o." Serena laughed. "Of course, you can't." Taiwo replied. "What's the next step?" She asked. "You'll switch off you phone or remove your sim card so he doesn't get to reach you. He will spend roughly an hour searching for Serena inside group medical. And from his journey to Mr Biggs and now to Group medical to and fro, he wud have spent close to five hundred naira. Just play by my rules." Taiwo explained. "Yes boss." Serena said laughing, even though deep down, she was not in support. --tbc-- |

CHAPTER 9 Mark led the way out of Chief Olukolade's office into the secretary's office. "Enjoy the rest of your day sir and ma." The beautiful lady said. Tina noticed a bit of resemblance between the lady and her one time best friend, Adeola, who happened to be the CEO's daughter. Maybe they are cousins afterall. But, a niece to the CEO can never be given the secretary job. But on the other hand, the CEO's secretary wields as much power and authority as the CEO himself. Afterall, considering the person of Chief Olukolade, his believe was that he will never give an unqualified family member a top position in his company and allow a qualified outsider walk around the streets of Lagos with dusty shoes in the name of job hunting. This was the situation when he proposed to his daughter a vacancy in the human resource department where she'll work in the HRD hall where several other ladies and men worked with their own cubicle, but Adeola refused, saying, she would either take the Managing director position or nothing which her father refused to heed to. This made Chief Olukolade recommend his daughter for the head of various department in friend's firms and she was employed in one of those firms, but she resigned after marriage on insistence of Daniel who had taken the position of the Managing Director. Tina replied the lady with a smile, but Mark ignored her like she just spoke in Swahili. "I am not convinced of the man's innocence." Mark said as they walked into the elevator. "What do you mean?" Tina asked. "I mean, he is friends with this Major General." "Point of correction, he was friends with Major General Tukur, but not anymore." Tina corrected. "whatever. General Tukur was a part of General Eze/Mark Anthony led government in the late 80s. Tukur later served in subsequent millitary governments and he led the African Union/United nations peace keeping troop to Russia during the cold war in 1991. It was after the cold war that Danny Lovato left the shores of Russia to establish himself as the most notorious terrorist in the world after Osama Bin laden. Can't you see a connection between Tukur and Lovato." Mark explained. "I still don't see how this point to Chief Olukolade." "Chief confirmed that remains from the Dodan barracks in Lagos which served as the government house until 1991 when Nigeria got emancipated democratically and governance was moved to Abuja. The remains and treasures accumulated by the Abacha government was shared to top army officials by the Abdulsalami government. And Chief Olukolade confirmed that, Tukur assisted his business with his own share. What does that tell you?" Mark continued. "That's business. And do you know why the two men fell out?" Tina asked. "You are speaking this way cos you know Chief personally. That's purely sentimental and it won't take you anywhere. I think a different agent should be assigned to work with me on this." Mark said angrily. "Don't forget, its my call. I choose whoever work with me. I choosed you." Tina said with a toturing laugh that almost made Mark loose his anger, but the blow of fresh air, as a result of the elevator reaching the ground floor changed Mark's mind. "We'll talk about it later." Mark muttered before walking out of the elevator and Tina followed. The scorching 1pm sun hit Tina's forehead as she walked into the parking lot, but the dizziness that she felt the moment she saw a figure leaning on her car almost made her loose her balance. She should have seen this coming, afterall, she knew Daniel worked at Godson, but probably her desperation to end the reigns of Danny Lovato made her embark on such journey. As much as she hated public attention, she realised she was getting oneas Mark held her firmly. "Young man, you are making her uncomfortable. You presence could do her harm, why not fvck off?" Mark warned Daniel calmly. "This is not your business Mr fake American accent. I have business with Tina and not you." Daniel replied rolling up his sleeves. "Daniel, you can't achieve anything by going the hard way. Be calm and be gentle." Jimmy adviced a visibly enraged Daniel who wanted a man to man fight with Mark. But Mark was having the laugh of his life as he enjoyed watching the angry african man in front of him. The laugh further infuriated Daniel who was challenging Mark to a fight. "There is nothing you can do about it, so far you still live in this Lagos. I want my son and I will go any length to have him under my roof." Daniel had screamed before Mark sped out of the company's premises, not minding the fact that he knew nowhere is Lagos. Daniel's last words kept ringing in Tina's head as Mark sped on, that was when the realisation hit him that sooner than later, Chris will know who his father was, because she knew, Daniel would stop at nothing in claiming his son. Hot tears rolled down her cheeks as she imgained he life without her son. --to be continued-- |

__________________________________________ "You must be high on mango leaves, you are thinking of going over to see Jake. Are you okay at all?" Taiwo asked when Serena was done with her story. "Taiwo, I am fine. He is still my friend and I can go to see him anytime." Serena replied. "I can see you are sick in the skull. He is still your friend, after all he did to you? Is that what friendship is all about? Are friends not supposed to love one another? Did he love you at all? No strings attached, did he love you?" Taiwo asked angrily. "Taiwo, you can't understand." "Of course, I do. He has been ur dream man since like forever. Your shining amour, isn't it? You obviously was in love with him and you still are, but the boy felt nothing for you. He realised your gullibility a long time ago, and decided to play with your emotion. He has been in love with that witch, Steph, but decided to pay with your head small." Taiwo ranted. "Seriously, Tee, I don't know why you are taking this personal. Afterall, its me, and seeing him doesn't change anything." Serena replied. "Serena, believe me, I will continue to take this personal until you grow up. Maybe you don't know, your brother and my sister are billed to get married, which automatically makes you my in law, their union makes us one family and anything that goes wrong with you goes wrong with me too." She paused and gave her friend a long look. "I understand you perfectly. Jake is dating Steph and they are obviously in love, nothing can change that. He invited me just to talk.." "Talk about what?" Taiwo cuts in angrily. Serena opened her mouth, but no words came out. "Look here, he has nothing to talk about. It is one of their usual tricks. Is he not a guy? He will probably apologise to get back into your heart and probably make you a side chick, remember that you are on probation with your dad, and him seeing you with Jake who already made him believe you are forcing yourself on him will only disappoint your dad more. Serena, come on think! Grow up!" Taiwo explained shaking her friend vigorously. Serena kept quiet and though over her friend's word for sometime. "And I must confess, you dad is a very gentle man. If it were to be my dad, despite the fact that he doesn't care about us, if he should see a guy with you, he could kill you, now think about his reaction if he realised that any of his daughters is forcing herself on a man. You can ask Bro Dave how he felt the first time he met my dad. You need to feel the tension before my dad shook hands with him and accepted him. Thats for my big sister who is not a kid, now think about me, a small girl." Taiwo explained further. "If you check my contact, you can't find a single male name on it. If my dad should see Emmanuel on my phone, I must call that Emmanuel and if God want to punish me, the Emmanuel should just jokingly say 'hello dear' at pick up. Then I am in for it. Serena, you don't need this now. I understand our different upbringing, but, even if you have a guy you love, you should put him down below your list of priorities, you still have a long way to go." Taiwo explained. Serena was hugely impressed with Taiwo's brilliance and fluency. Even though all that she said were not new things. She herself knew that going into a serious relationship could mean doom, but there is something like situations that we couldn't help and before you knew it, you are deep inside it. "And if you don't mind, we can play with Jake's head." Taiwo said with a smile. "How?" Serena asked. "Are you in or not?" "Of course, I am." Serena replied. "Good. Pick up your phone now and send Jake your reply. Tell him to meet you at Mr Biggs at Idi ape. That should be about a thirty minutes drive from here. Let him spend two or more hours there, after which you'll tell him something came up and you couldn't come again." Taiwo explained like a movie director who has a movie script already mastered. "Taiwo." Serena drawled. "Just do it. He must cry too." Her friend replied. "Wait for the next line of action from me. I'll be back, lemme go take my bath." "You mean, you haven't taken your bath today? 11am?" Serena asked, shock written all over her face. "What's so spectacular about that? I am in my father's house, no Jake to impress, no Obi to look good to." She said mocking as she picked her towel and walked towards her bathroom. --tbc-- |
POST HIDDEN |
__________________________________________ Serena followed the address given to her by Dave and she got to the supposed estate where Taiwo lived with her family. Once her bike stopped at the estate gate, since bikes are not allowed into the estate, she paid the bikeman and approached the security post. She stated her mission, her final destination and when the security men are conviced that she posed no threat, after conduction a thorough search, she was allowed into the estate, with a paper map leading to different houses plus the names of the families occupying each house. "Thanks." She said as she walked down the tarred road towards the Akinyemi residence. Five minutes later, she stopped at the gate numbered 106 and pressed the bell. "Am coming." A female voice said to her through the speakerphone and a minute later, she heard hurried footsteps approaching the gate. "Good afternoon." Serena greeted the young lady standing in front her. To say she was ugly would be a total disrespect to ugliness and the ugly, awful was the right words. "How may I help you?" She asked. "My name is Serena and I suppose this is the Akinyemi residence. I am Taiwo's friend." Serena replied. "Where are you from?" The lady asked. Serena wanted to say the planet Mars, but the thought of being denied entry by this obnoxious and annoying lady who seemed to develop hatred for her because she was good looking made her answer politely. "I am Taiwo's friend." Serena repeated. "What if you are not?" She asked. "Are you saying I am lying to be someone I am not?" Serena asked a little bit offended. "Why not invite Taiwo and let her confirm if she is my friend or not." This was not going as planned. Serena's plan was to shock Taiwo by meeting her at the front door or already seated in the living room. "Come in. The sun is too much." The lady said. Afterall, she has her good side too. "Thanks." Serena said as she stepped into the compound inside which a massive duplex stood with nothing disturbing it. The vast compound alone looked beautiful and habitable enough, such that she wouldn't mind passing the night in there, so far there won't be rain overnight. The garage was locked and Serena could swear with all she had that the locked garage is housing two cars, probably new cars, while three cars were parked inside the compound. She recognized the Mercedez benz G-wagon which she had seen Taiwo's father drive when she sat her UTME weeks ago. That gave her the conviction that she was in the right house. Minutes later, a casually dressed Taiwo walked out of the house with an angry stare. "Hi." Serena greeted once she stopped in front of her. "You can go." Taiwo said to the ugly lady who nodded curtly and excused herself. She stared at Serena for close to a minute without saying a word. Serena tried to lighten the tension by smiling, but it seemed Taiwo was ready for her. "Why are you looking at me like that nau?" Serena asked jokingly. "Shut up and come with me." Taiwo muttered, took hold of her left hand, as she dragged her towards the house. Serena wanted to have a look of the compound as she walked into the house, but Taiwo gave her no chance as she dragged her, such that Serena almost fell at a point. Once they were inside the house, Serena couldn't shut her mouth as Taiwo dragged her accross a place she called, the visitor's room, to say the interior decor of the house was beautiful was and understatement. "Welcome to my room." Taiwo said as she shut the door into a room which is almost twice the size of Serena's room at home. "What should I offer you?" Taiwo asked. "I am okay for now." "For where? You can't be okay. In short, you are not okay. Be right back abeg!" With this, Taiwo zoomed out of the room excitedly. She returned minutes later with a one litre pack of fruit juice and a glass cup, a disposable plate sat beside the fruit juice pack on a flat tray. "Here, they are yours." She said as she dropped the tray on a stool. A minute into her drink. "Am sorry for the other day." Serena said?" Taiwo laughed. "I am over it already. I just want you to apologise, that explains my reason for not chatting you up or calling." If there was a thing she loved about Taiwo, it was her bluntness. She was someone who dwells not much in the past, and she doesn't ask too many questions. "But seriously, you are a big girl o. The things in your room alone is more expensive than the things in my house." Serena said. "Seriously, you are crazier than I ever thought you to be." Taiwo said playfully. "But, how do you manage? I mean, with all these things and one could hardly tell if you are rich." Serena asked. "Na God." Taiwo replied. --to be continued-- |
seyitanhep1:I think you missed something. When Mr Thomas left home, he left with a car wich was parked at d airport. Which is the Taiwo you know? |
TrishaP:Aunty, why na? Like seriously, I never saw things from that angle. At least, not yet. That part came up because I wanted to show you another side of Taiwo. Simple! Serena won't follow her mum's footsteps overnight and the story won't run forever. So, u can rule that out. |

__________________________________________ Serena woke up this morning in one of the best moods of her life, such that immediately after the morning devotion, she started doing her chores. She swept her room, cleaned the living room, the dusty electronics, cleaned the dinning room, crossed over to the kitchen, moved to the front of the house where she swept a portion of the compound and left the rest for the gateman to take care off. She hummed Joel's HAPPY DAY as she cleaned the garden. Then her mind flashed back to her last meeting with Taiwo which was five days ago, then she realised the bad friend she was. It was high time they settled their differences and move on like nothing happened, but none of them was willing to be the matured of the duo. Their pride and ego won't allow them make the matured call for peace and in the absence of a third party, they would continue keeping malice at each other. But Serena in her very happy mood decided to make the call and settle her differences with Taiwo. But, such things can't be done on phone, then she decided to pay her a suprise visit so as to apologise, but one problem was that, she didn't know her address, which was where Dave would play an active role. She concluded as she carried her cleaning materials and made for the main house. She knocked gently on his door and moments later, a handsome looking Dave, dressed in a sky blue shirt and a black slim fitted trouser. "Hi." He said. "Can I come in?" She asked. "Sure." He replied stepping aside and opening the door for her wider. She gingerly walked into her brothers room and the sight she beheld suprise her because she didn't know her brother to be a fan of hardcore rap music as giant posters of tupac, Biggie, Ludachris, Cardinalofficial, Lilwayne, Jay Z, Eminem were all pasted on the wall. She didn't know the last time she entered this particular room, not even by mistake. "I need a favour from you." She began as she sat on his bed. "What's that?" He asked as he zipped up his laptop bag. "I need Sister Bolaji's address." She said. "Sister Bolaji? Who is that?" He asked. "You don't know your girlfriend again?" She replied with an offended look. "Don't give me that look jor. I was taken by suprise, you know, I wasn't expecting you to ask for her address, I mean what business do you have with her?" He explained. "I have no business with your girlfriend, I am going to see Taiwo." She replied. "And you can't ask from Taiwo abi?" "Well, if you must know, I am not on good terms with her and my sole aim of visiting is to suprise her and apologise." Serena replied. "Serena of life! Always picking fight with everybody. I hail o." He said mockingly. "I didn't pick fight with anybody. I only want to make peace, because I felt it needed." Serena replied. "Peacemaker. All I know is that, you are in a way at fault. Abi no be you?" He said mockingly as he took a step backward. "Whatever. Are you giving me the address or not?" "Of course I am. Who am I not to give you the address?" He said as he explained to her how to go about her intended journey. ------------------------------------------ Jake rose up from his bed with a sad look on his face. Even though it has become an habbit for him to wake up before 7:30am of recent, he still woke up everyday wishing he hadn't woke up at all. Even though he slept late every night, he still found it difficult to sleep for three straight hours without waking up. Either he was up around 2am thinking about his life so far, the decisions he had made, his future, how the decisions may affect his life later on. Other times, he was thinking about his American girlfriend who was always pestering him for a return to the state after his extended stay in Nigeria. The height of his thoughts was always his decision to stay back in Nigeria because he loved Serena and days after his stay was confirmed, he with his own hands destroyed all he had worked for. Now he had to settle for Stephanie and Serena seemed to have moved on. He felt like the looser because he had no iota of love for steph and his decision to spite Serena was all a waste. He picked up his phone and sent a message with shaky hands. - Ten minutes later, Dave had driven out of the house with their father, which means Serena had the house all to herself, but there was nothing spectacular about it. No friend to invite. As she was fixing herself a quick breakfast, a message flew into her phone. It reads; I know I am the worst person you've ever seen and I don't deserve your friendship. Do me this last favour, CAN WE PLEASE MEET? A part of her wanted to reply with a quick YES, but remembering what Taiwo would say, she decided to show her the message before giving him her YES. --to be continued-- |
