At the upper lobby of the Newton hotel, Jimi and Imade sits opposite each other. He pours more wine into Imade’s glass goblets.


“Imade, am not comfortable with you taking just wine, why not let me order for something very light for you.”


“Sincerely................. Jimi have taken too many food junks today, am very ok with the wine.”


“Ok........... if you insist.”


From the way they interact, one can easily tell that they are still trying to get along with each other.
Jimi being a cool guy, he doesn’t want to be too hasty about their parents intentions. So he decides to converse with Imade like just a friend.
Few minutes they talk and the next minute they observe silence, each time their eyes meet. They both looks away.


The slow music plays in the background as they both enjoy the serene environment.




At the magnificent mansion of the George’s family. Few hours after lmade and Jimi’s dinner date. She walks in still looking stunning in her dress and takes her seat.
Her mum who was focused on the Tv turns to Imade who sits next to her.


“How did it go .”


“ Nice date Mum.”


“Good !” Smiling radiantly.


“And am expecting you two to do more of it.”


“That depends on him, mum I need to get some rest.”
She stands to leave.


“Oh.......... lest I forget, Oyin came around to ask after you.”


Immediately, she turns back and exclaimed.


“Oh.......my....... God........ how I wish I was home. Mum I haven’t seen any of my old friends since I came back from London.”


“I gave her your new digits and she promised to call.”


“I can’t wait to hear from her, have lost so many contacts and have been so bored not having anyone around me.”


Just as she attempt to climb the staircase, her phone rings.


“Hello !”


“Hi Imade ! this is Oyin.”


“Huuuuuh..................Oyiiiinnnnnn” she Screams joyfully running and climbing the staircase.
Her mum smiles shaking her head. She turns back to focus on the TV.

Interior of Jimi’s office
The two clients sitting before Jimi Craig stands to take their leave after the conclusion of a short meeting. Jimi turns the swivel chair around to check on his phone that has been beeping for a while, which he deliberately ignored because of the just concluded meeting.
Seeing that it was his mum’s call, he quickly places a call through to her.


“Hello mum!”

“Hello Jimi, how is work ?”


“Good mum”


“ Ehen...hen, Jimi you know the weekend Is Close. I have already told Imade about what we discussed.”


“What we discussed? What did we discuss?”


“Of course the dinner date that I suggested you take her.”


He acts shocked


“Wait mum, you asked for a dinner date on my behalf ? You are kidding me right. Am supposed to do that myself and at a convenient time.”


“Jimi, what time could be more convenient than this weekend. The dinner date is supposed to be a make-up for your absence at their recent occasion, you shouldn’t prolong it.”


“Seriously mum, with the way you are going about this whole thing, it looks like you will soon propose to her on my behalf. “


“Son...............if you take too long to give her a ring, I will definitely do it for you. For Christ sake, Ebuka your childhood and best friend is married, what are you waiting for ? This is a new year, you need to be fast about it. Let me leave you for now, I will call you later to know how it goes”


She hangs up.

Jimi was stuck in a heavy traffic on his way from the office.


The time was about 11.30pm. Jimi waits patiently after hooting the horn. His gate man quickly opens the gate while he drives in. Before he could pack the car properly, his phone rings.


“Hello mum.”
“Jimi, are you out of the traffic now ?”


Jimi speaks tiredly


“Mum, I just drove in now.”


“Huuuuuh........” she sighs


“Even Ola my sales rep told me about the traffic jam, he said it was so bad.”


“Mum it was terrible, the time is about 12.00 midnight and am just getting home.”


“I really feel bad that you couldn’t make it to D’GEORGE’ dinner party, but I thank God that you are home now. Imade and her mum were so looking out to see you at the dinner, they felt bad too.”


“Mum you should have explained things to them.”


“Of course I did, but you should make it up with her.”


“I will definitely call to apologise.”


“Apologise alone ?”


“What else am I suppose to do ?”


“Jimi, you should try to make it up with her, may be take her on a dinner date Or something.”


“Really............... mum are you wooing this lady for me already ? See I have to go freshen up now.”


“just ensure you take enough rest, because of the traffic stress.”


“I will, goodnight mum.”


“Good night son.”



At Mabel’s home, the gate keeper brings the luggage in one after the other. Mabel (Tokunbo’s cousin) plumps on the nearest couch tiredly. In few minutes, her phone rings.


“Hi Didi ! I just got home.”


“let me be on my way to come and see you.”


“ No...no... no Didi, I will be stepping out soon.”


“But you just came in now, Where are you rushing To?”


“Didi, I need to see my cousin Tokunbo, you know I haven’t seen her since she broke up with Jimi.”


“Oh, that’s true though. You only sent me to help you check up on her. That’s ok see you tomorrow then.”




The Beauty Palace stall is a very modern one. Tokunbo has put in her best to make her stall a classy one.


The two cousins ( Tokunbo and Mabel) sits close to each other. Mabel fixes her eyes on Tokunbo after a lengthy conversation.


“Have you and Jimi spoken after the break up ?”


“He called me on Christmas eve.”


“I still can’t believe this.” Mabel mutters.

Tokunbo dismissed the topic


“I told you about my new beauty products.”


“Yes you did.” Mabel replies.


“That’s all I have in my head right now, I don’t want any form of distraction.”

Few days after Christmas, at D’ GEORGE’s Group of company, the board members breakes into applause as Imade is introduced by her Dad as the new Ast. Managing Director of the company.


Everyone congratulates her, while she gives her speech of acknowledgement before the meeting rounds up.


The end of the year is almost near. The company prepares for two event celebrations. A welcome party for Miss Imade George as the new Asst. Managing. Director and secondly the annual end of the year dinner.


The company’s administration goes about dropping a substantial gift at each table of the staffs. Everyone appreciates the gift and they all prepares for the Big Dinner party.




Interior of Imade’s bedroom. She sits on the bed with her mum.


“Imade, I must say am happy to see the woman you are becoming. Being the new Asst. Managing Director of your dad’s company, am so proud of you.”


Smiling radiantly

“Thank you mum.”


“Now let me tell you this, your dad’s initial plan was to make you the Managing Director, not the assistant. But I discouraged him.”


Looking surprised by her mum’s statement
“But why mum, you don’t have confidence in me ?”


“Not that.”


“So why mum ?”


“Daughter, giving you the whole responsibility of a Managing director, will definitely get you too occupied and you won’t have time for yourself. Imade you are 26, I want you and Jimi to get married on time.”


Imade cuts in.
“Ohhhh.......... muuumm........... not again. You talk like Jimi already proposed to me, for Christ sake you just introduced us to each other. I haven’t even known him too well.”


“Save yourself the stress Imade, if your mother can present a man to you, just know that he will make the best husband. I know Jimi’s background, trust me he is from a good home.”


“Ok mum, he is a cool guy, I agree with you............but am a lady, am not expected to obtrude myself on a man. Being a family friend or not, Jimi Craig still needs to express his feelings for me. I can’t just assume that we are already dating.”


“Yes Imade, I won’t say you are wrong. But let me tell you a real fact, when a guy’s mother likes a lady, she would do anything to marry her into the family.”


“So ............ I don’t understand.”


“I know you are not aware of this Imade, Mrs Craig (Jimi’s mum) admires you so much. she talks about you all the time.”


Imade is flattered, she smiles shyly
“But mum............”


"Ssssssshhhh.........there is no but. Jimi’s mum told me that he is back from his business trip, all you need to do for me at today’s dinner is to look as stunning as ever.”

She walks towards the door as she finishes her statement.

Imade shakes her head smiling.

It’s the Christmas eve, everywhere looks colourful with different fireworks around.


Jimi in his hotel room in Ghana. He sits with all concentration before his system.
Shortly, he stands to grab a bottle of wine and pour some in the cup then settles on the couch.


He stares thoughtfully for a while before getting his phone to make a call.


The female voice comes from the end of the phone.


“Hello”


“Hi Tokunbo! Merry Christmas.”


“Merry Christmas Jimi!”


“Did I wake you up?” Jimi asked


“No, I wasn’t sleeping.”


They both went silent, how time changes. the one time lovebugs who couldn’t do without each other, now interact like strangers.


“Actually, I just thought about the last Christmas eve and I remembered that we were together..............”
He paused for some minutes before adding.


“I feel it’s necessary to check on you.”


“Ok...................”


Both silent again.


“So ................what’s your plan for the Xmas?”


“Hmmmm..............I intend to go to the cinema. But if there is a change of mind, then I’ll just do my cooking and relax back home with some home movies .”


The silence came again.


“Ok...............Wish you a merry Xmas Tokunbo.”


“Same to you Jimi”


“Good night!”

“Good night!”


Jimi hangs up and leans his head back in thought.




At the George’s residence, the chef and the domestic staff seems to have a lot to do for the Christmas. They are still quite busy in the kitchen moving from one kitchen cabinet to the other.
