WuraSerano:
Amanda was pretty, cool and vivacious.




Despite the fact that Yeni hadn’t given him a child, he still so much loved her, or so he felt. He briefly had a reminiscence of his relationship with her.

He had met her in a friend’s birthday party, fallen in love on the first sight and – barely eight months after – wedded her gracefully. She had all he wanted in a woman: she was tall, beautiful, regal and bewitching. He had called her ‘the total woman’.

It was a blissful affair. Besides many other good qualities, she was good at the home front. Jide had, true to his words, taken on a caring and homely one. As for her miscarriages, he believed the problem would soon be over and he would become a proud father.

His mother had expressed serious reservations about his wife’s state, most of which – unfortunately – were unpleasant.

‘All these modern girls,’ she had often said in vitriol, ‘they would end up with such problem after they had seriously messed around when single. All those abortions!’

‘Oh, no, mummy,’ he would say. ‘Don’t talk like that.’

He had tried as much as possible to dispel her insinuations, but with little success.

It was almost eight o’clock when he got to the gate of his house. He hooted the horn to draw the attention of Audu, the security man. Some seconds later, he hooted it again.

Audu was becoming erratic these days. It was obvious he was becoming negligent in his duty as he was not as assiduous as he used to be.

He finally emerged in his caftan and with all the time in the world, opened the gate wide enough for the car to drive in.

Alex, one of Deji’s junior brothers, came out of the main building to welcome him.

Above the Shadows




Jide was always busy these days. Officially, work closed at 5.00 p.m., but he always remained in office, sometimes as late as 9.00 p.m. Tonight, for the past one hour, he had been surfing the internet on his lap top. The world-wide technological bug had caught up with him and he found himself becoming addicted to the world of the wireless communication.

He was the company secretary to an indigenous oil marketing firm, Exoss Oil and Gas. It was a prestigious job with a fat pay. At thirty-four, he was a figure that elicited envy among peers.
Right now, he was working on his fiction, which he normally did after the official closing hours.

He hoped to make it a blockbuster, as fantastic as the idea was. He would like to be in the league of writers like John Grisham. It was a tall dream, but there was no crime in dreaming.

At ten minutes to six, his personal assistant popped inside his office. She had some papers with her. They were the prints out of the latest pages of his manuscript. Amanda, the P.A had been doing some overtime to get them typed and edited.

She didn’t mind the extra effort. Her boss attached some generous pecks to her efforts. Besides, Jide had recently taken more than passing interests in her. She found herself not resisting his overtures. Indeed, that was an understatement as she had actually been goading him on.

‘How far?’ he asked, his eyes still glued to the monitor.

‘All done.’ She gave him the papers which were all neatly arranged according to their pages. She was always the efficient assistant.

‘Good,’ he said, grinning. His eyes didn’t leave the monitor. ‘Thanks,’ he added as an afterthought. She shrugged it off.

‘Another minute, and we’ll be off,’ he informed.
She didn’t say anything but sat on one of the seats facing his desk. Apart from the muffled sound from the split air-conditioning system and the soft rattling of the keys on the keyboard, everywhere was silent.

After five minutes, he whistled softly and shut down the computer.

‘Whoosh, what a day!’ he exclaimed, looking at his wristwatch.

‘How did it go?’

‘Fine, fine.’

He stood up. Amanda was on her feet too. She removed his coat from the hanging rack and helped him to wear it.

Amanda was about twenty-seven. She had a higher diploma in Business Administration from a federal polytechnic. She was good in secretarial duties and had been an efficient and reliable P.A.

She was still single and that meant she was vulnerable to her boss’ advances. Amanda was only employed as Jide’s P.A some months ago.

At first, Jide did not have any amorous inclination towards her. Then, about a fortnight ago, he practically started noticing how desirable she was and how desirous he was becoming. He believed he still loved his wife, Yeni, but … perhaps if he was discreet enough, there would not be a crime in having a fling with Amanda.

Couldn’t Amanda provide the very much needed succor one needed after the office stress?
Amanda was pretty, cool and vivacious. Jide was convinced there wouldn’t be any harm in trying. For three years now that he had been married, he had never cheated his wife. Somehow, this intending tryst gave him a secret thrill.

‘Let’s go,’ he said, quite irrelevantly as she was set to leave. She nodded as if it mattered. The office was on the eight floor of one of the numerous skyscrapers that adorned the sky of Marina, Lagos.

Standing shoulder to shoulder, they rode the elevator to the ground floor. He had to resist the impulsive urge of grabbing her and crushing her lips with kisses right there. He grinned as he refrained himself.

Nancy nodded. Then an idea came to her mind. 'What if she doesn’t come back?' she asked.

Frank had not thought of that possibility. 'I think she'll come back,' he muttered.

Nancy smiled at him cheekily. Frank got the message. No, no, after he had helped Mick to become intimate with Nancy, he was not going to seek
Nancy for himself. Never.

Towards closing time, Nike called him.

'How're you?' she asked. 'Sorry that I've not called you all this while. I've been down with sickness.'

To say that he was very angry at her would be an understatement. He however bottled his anger. 'I'm getting better,' he said.

'I'm glad to hear that. Frank, I want to tell you I'm sincerely sorry for all that have happened. Please forgive me for all that has happened.'

His mind softened a bit. 'Well, to err is human, to forgive divine. In spite of what that infamous action has caused, I'm moving on.'





Her hijab was back, and so were the actions her father wanted to see her perform. Aaliyah found herself trying to please her father. It was like
she was trying to make up for the time she had rebelled against him. She also found herself becoming less resistant to the overtures of Ade.

That Friday, he came to meet her in the office, smiling.

'I will like to take you out for lunch tomorrow, Saturday,' he said. 'Can I come and pick you in your home, say by one o'clock?'

To his surprise, she did not spurn the invitation. 'That will be alright,' she said.

'Good.' He was obviously delighted. 'I'll be in your house to pick you.'

'Okay.'

Aaliyah was surprised that Saturday when she was informed about twelve noon that he had come to the house as agreed to take her out.

‘Do you really love me?’ I asked.

She stopped to stare at me. ‘How could you still ask such a question?’

I shook my head. ‘I’m sorry, but what your mummy said made me to ask.’

She continued to stare at me, in addition to the curiosity that clouded her face. ‘What did she say?’

I sighed, weighing how best to tell her.

‘Tell me,’ she said urgently, ‘what did my mummy tell you?’

I tried to look very sober. ‘She said your love for me is only a fancy; that I shouldn’t think much of this relationship.’

Her mouth was open. There was no doubt she was astonished to hear what I said.

‘Tell me … tell me you’re joking.’

I shook my head a little bit sadly. ‘Honestly, I wished it was a joke, but that was what she said. I was made to believe that this is more of infatuation or something.’

She was silent for several seconds. ‘But how could mum say such a thing? I thought she was happy for me that I’ve found love.’

I sighed but did not say anything. The micro-wave oven chimed. She removed the burger and up put the plate in a small tray. We returned to the sitting-room.
