Seyifunmi couldn’t help but grin at Dele’s reaction. Alisdare had been her classmate back in Yale while she was doing her first bachelor’s program in Business Administration. They had been close buddies till he broke the friend code. He had asked Rose out behind her back and all that on a dare. He not only took her virginity but also left her heart shattered when the truth about the dare came to light.

Rose had eventually gotten over and she’d die before she allowed him back into Rose’s life. But Dele didn’t know this and seeing him act so possessive and jealous was so entertaining. He had been quiet since they left the cinema but his demeanor spoke volumes He was over the top jealous and that only meant one thing. He was serious about her.

“I actually enjoyed the mousse cake. It was really good.”, she said breaking the silence.

“It was. So, Alisdare and you?”, he asked. It took everything in her not to laugh.

“Yeah. We were friends. Really close friends.”, she said mischievously.

“So, did you guys date?”, he asked.

“Um, no. We didn’t. He was interested in my cousin, Rose. They dated but long story short, he was a really big jerk and he broke her heart. He wants her back or so he says. I say he should go and f*** himself. He isn’t getting her number from me.”, she said. She smiled as she watched him heave a sigh of relief. “Did you think he was talking about me?”

“Well, I did.”, he confessed and she burst into laughter. “Its not funny.”, he quipped.

“It is. You were ready to bite his head off.”, she answered.

“Well, he was just there looking at my girlfriend saying stuff like he wants to get someone back. Of course, I would have bitten his head off.”, he said.

“Awwn. That’s cute.”, she said and smiled.

Tinu sat in her car waiting for his call. She knew he’d have seen the ad she had rented. She’d go all out and beg for his forgiveness. Her phone chimed and she became giddy. She checked her phone and saw a text from Chris.

‘Really? You’re really crazy about this apology thing.’

She smiled and texted back. ‘Id do anything for you forgive me. I’m actually begging for your forgiveness. I want to be a great wife.’’

‘Ok. I forgive you but can you ask the balloon to leave. It’s embarrassing.’

'I took a cue from you. I love you.’

‘I love you too. Are you around?’

‘Im in the visitor’s car park.’, she texted back.

‘Come up. I miss you.’ She bounced out of the car in the speed of lightning.

✴✴✴✴✴✴✴✴✴✴✴✴✴✴✴

Rose looked at the phone in wonderment. None of her friends knew she was working temporarily in FDL. Who then would come to visit her? It had to be Seyifunmi or any of her other thirteen cousins. She sighed and hoped whoever it was wasn’t on an embarrass Rose mission. She put a bookmark in the manuscript she was going through and left the bullpen. She walked to the reception and met the temporary receptionist, Mmesoma talking to a man.

She could identify that gait and physique anywhere. It belonged to the man that stole her heart, took her breath away and swept her off her feet. He made her fall in love with him and give her all to him. She had given him her heart, her soul and her body. But it was all a joke to him, the subject of a hundred dollars bet. It all meant nothing to him. She was just the subject of a bet and nothing more. Bile rose to her throat as she remembered. She couldn’t face him. Not after what he did. What did he even want? To win another bet? She wasn’t interested.

She was about turning to return to her office when a smitten Mmesoma called her name. She cringed and turned to face them. She knew she would forever hate Mmesoma and hoped her time would be up soon. She plastered a fake smile on her face and walked closer to them. She was going to breeze in and out of this meeting.

Please op u need to find a way to differentiate the Rose u are talking about so we d readers don't get confused. Remember there are two Rose in the story and both work in the same company

Well, there's no way to differentiate them. If you read the Rose into the context, you'd know which Rose is in the scene.

Or I could try using their full names- Roselle and Rosanna.

Nice update

Yes, use their full names when writing from the writer POV but when writing from a character POV, u can use Rose.

Thanks for the wonderful update

Phew!!
It's been a long read... and I must say, Dear Writer you sure have your way with words. This story is really captivating... indeed it's an ocean of secrets.

More ink to your pen.. thank you

I was confused too.

this your story getting me emotional..
mixture of sadness and anger..
especially tinu Don't know why buh I have a very funny hidden dislike for her..
maybe because she's too harsh In the decisions she makes..if not for dele I doubt she would still be with Chris...
and why the fvck will she allow her children loose connection with their real father



OP bravo

Thanks for the rather expressive comment. I really appreciate it.

As for Tinu, she is one of the most complicated Characters I've ever written. But let's not forget she's been through a lot, especially at the hands of Dele. I don't blame her for severing ties with him. She could have cut him off totally.

But then don't hate her yet.

it is because he is a gulllble idiot. He allowed chris to take his place in the life of his kids without a fight. I dont hnow what his mum is doing anyways

“Hello, Mmesoma.”, she greeted.

“Hey. This is the person looking for you.”, the receptionist announced.

“Yes. Thank you. Hello Dare. Long time, no see. What are you doing here?”, she said.

“I came to see you, Rosanna. I met your Godfather and he told me where to find you.”, he said. He had called her name the same way he used to all those years ago. Mmesoma excused herself with the excuse she had to use the restroom.

“Oh. This is really a bad time. I’m really swarmed with work so I won’t be able to get down to catch up. So if you’ll excuse me, have a nice day Alisdare.”, she said. As she turned to leave, he held on to her hand.

“Can we meet during the weekend then?”, he asked.

“Um. Dare, it depends on when I finish the works I have to edit. And that isn’t something I can rush through.”, she said.

“When will you be free then? Rosanna, we need to talk.”, he all but begged.

“Dare, I honestly want to tell you a particular day but then I don’t know. And frankly, I don’t want to see you. Truth be told, I’d rather you don’t come here anymore. We’re not exactly friends and I don’t want us to become enemies because seeing you will only bring back the hate and resentment I felt towards you all those years ago. I don’t need that sort of negativity in my life. Please, Dare I beg of you, leave me alone.”, she said.

“Rosanna, I..”, his words were cut short when Roselle came to take a stamp from Mmesoma's desk. She muttered a cold greeting to both of them and left.

“Alisdare Dwayne Shaw, please. Leave me alone.”, she put in and walked away.

Alisdare sighed and wished she’d listen to his side of the story. Yes, it had all started out as a bet. But he fell in love with her, hook, line and sinker. He didn’t plan it and he didn’t know when he did but he did. When he slept with her that night, it wasn’t just sex he made love her. By the morning, she was gone and she didn’t want to see him again. He wished he could go back and redo everything.


✴✴✴✴✴✴✴✴✴✴✴✴✴✴✴

Rose was shocked when she got Ose’s text. She hadn’t been expecting him to reach out after the book launch incident. Her shock grew when he asked to meet up with her at a café the first met. What did he want to tell her? Was he going to let her down softly? Or was he going to reciprocate her feelings? The former seemed more like it. He had a girlfriend right? She wouldn’t go. She’d rather not hear him reject her to her face.

She had to face her job and stop daydreaming about Ose. She picked up a memo she needed the receptionist cum typist to work on. She left her office and bumped into her namesake in the corridor.

“Rose, why are you skulking outside my office?”, Roselle asked.

“Im sorry. I wanted to see you.”, Rosanna answered.

“Can you walk and talk? I’m kind of busy.”, Roselle put in and started walking ahead.

“Ok.”, Rosanna answered and walked to catch up with Roselle.

“So?”, Roselle asked.

“Um, I was wondering if I could get a transfer to our Ikoyi office.”, Rosanna put in softly.

“May I ask why?”, Roselle asked.

“Um, it’s kind of personal. I’m sorry but I really need it.”, Rosanna answered and Roselle stopped right I front of the reception.

“What is it with you rich kids and being so entitled? What makes you believe Felicia doesn’t want the Ikoyi office to be closer to her husband and son? Or that Linda who is pregnant doesn’t deserve it? You’ve only been here for what? Two weeks? Three? I don’t know?”, Roselle barked.

“Actually, five.”, Rosanna interrupted.

“Do I look like I care? Cause I don’t! Rather than asking for a transfer that you don’t deserve, you can get back to the work you’re paid to do. I want the final draft of The Deep on my desk by two. Just because your father owns the company doesn’t mean you can go and come like you please. If that’s how Sizzle was being run, there might have not been a company left for him to buy. Now, get back to work.”, Roselle ranted.

It was then Roselle and Rosanna noticed their audience – Alisdare, Ose, Mmesoma, Mr. Koko and Mr. Amaechi.

“You can clear out your desk.”, Mr. Amaechi put in when she was done.

“Sir, I..”, Roselle stuttered.

“Sir, I believe there is a perfect explanation for this. Why don’t we just listen to Miss. Pepple's side of the story.”, Mr. Koko intervened.

“Yes, sir. I’ve been sloppy at my work and Miss. Pepple was just setting me straight.”, Rosanna explained quickly.

“Is that how she scolds all members of staff or just those affiliated to management?”, Mr. Amaechi asked.

“Its how she scolds everyone. Even authors.”, Ose quickly added.

“Who might you be?”, Mr. Amaechi asked.

“This is our newest author, Mr. Lawrence. He’s the writer of one of our fastest selling novels.”, Mr. Koko explained.

“Well, Miss Pepple, your employment status is still tentative. I’ll discuss with Me. Koko.”, Mr. Amaechi said and led the way to Mr. Koko’s office with Mr. Koko following him sheepishly.
Rosanna looked from Dare to Ose and to Roselle and left the reception in embarrassment. Mmesoma snuck to her desk slowly thankful she didn’t get caught for leaving her duty post.

Yaaay, I love d onslaught of new characters.

Alisdare and Rose's story had me "awnning" in my mind. I'm a sucker for those, sure he made a very terrible mistake but I would love if they got together.

Chris and Tinu are no longer hyping me again, it's the 2 Roses I want to read of.
Dele and Seyifunmi....hmmmmmm. I "smell" wedding bells.

Overall, dis story is really great, d way u interwined d characters is nothing short of splendid, fantastic, fabulous and so many words I can't type out.
