maishot: Obviously, its NOT easy being a heavy PAIN-IN-THE-NECK,
and yet, be a good writer.

(Did someone say 'whatsoever u sow, u shall reap?!')


Princesa has SHUT DOWN. grin

My advice to her...?





Its simple..,


Go face ur studies,
then come back in the next four (4) years.
We'll be waiting.



But until then...


Your suspense is irritating.., no offence. lipsrsealed
i hear, its not like this is easy on me too embarassed

lilrukevwe: @ commenters when I see a new page and d length of
the page its like" seeing a lynx and I think Jesus" but alas I go down
and see some person copy a whole chapter and paste and comment 3 lines
below. It makes the whole reading process boring and annoying. Ii believe people should realize there are others still reading.
sorry about thatsmiley

phew! dnt even know where to start. the questions, the commendation, the Request for update, ave never been shown so much love smiley

just wish i was already dropping the last chapter soon, so as to halt the tension on both sides...

Repogirl, i see ur comment on the last chapter, i've noted that grin don't play by the side and correction noted. but if Daisy interprets Jide's words as love, she's the one to blame oh not me grin

Thanks Ishi, if someone could call ur work boring, then it means mine was given a fairer judgement...

Mynd, no more outbursts from me, i got so much on my hand here already.... i might take you up on ur offer, let me see how it works here...that's after i write the new chapter....


special thanks to all my readers too numerous to mention, you guys are the bomb and you keep me going.

[quote author=Mazi_Omenuko]Granddaughter, don't mind them bad belles, you will always have them in
your midst. I know how it feels; working your brain round the clock to
get an episode written and someone comes to denigrate it with just two
lines.

Keep up the good work.

#dont forget you used to be like this on my thread; that was why I was glad when you started writing. Now you know why I chose to ignore the old you cool#[/quote]ta, who is your grand daughter grin

i was supposed to be your daughter in law, but i divorced ur step son, so let me settle with calling you uncle not that other 'uncle'wink

#oh well, i guess i should say apologies for my attitude back then, i ain't it regretting it now though, but the old me is still here cool

[quote author=Mynd_44]Watch that anger of yours.....it does not help you at all.

As a writer you will get good, bad and ugly feed back and you should not
lash out just cos one does not favor you. If Ishi gets into a fight for
every bad thing someone says what would happen?

Do what you can and move on.

Cheers[/quote]they didn't critic it na, it was an attack on the work, crap,
frivolous.......didn't help me with my mistakes otherwise....

ok then, moving on! cool

'i heard you perfectly well' Daisy
replied his earlier taunt and gently tried to pull her arms away but
Jide held on tightly.

'we are not done here yet' he said calmly.

'then be over and done with' Daisy replied curtly.

Her tone hit Jide. He knew instantly that his worst fear was finally coming to pass, Daisy had never spoken that boldly and rudely to him before, and now she just did!

Slowly he loosened his hold on her palms, feeling momentarily lost and hurt.

Daisy smiled another wicked and sly one at him again, wrenched her arms free, then walked out on him heading towards the hallway. Her head proudly lifted high.

'you don't leave this house without my knowledge' he suddenly called after her.

'that's not an issue' she replied without a glance back at the
distraught Jide.

When she got close to the dining she mocked:

'food, dear Jide'. Then laughed quietly to herself and disappeared
through the curtain leading to the hallway.

She had personally broken the hold Jide had on her. Now Grace could successfully come in. She thought smugly.

but even at that, i write on my notes in my phone not with Microsoft word, so the possibility of me attaching it is huh
LiteratureRe: Story: Taking Chances by princesa(op):
********
Jide drove into his compound at about 7 in the evening. He was feeling tipsy, consequence of the few hours he'd spent alone at a bar drinking whilst he glanced absentmindely at a repeat broadcast of a match between
Chelsea and Barca. He had left Grace's place at about 4pm, not feeling like heading home just yet, he'd opted for a bar instead. Hopefully Daisy and her friend would be over and gone when he returned. He thought.

He hadn't felt like hanging out with his friends either, and though he'd thought of calling Dave since he was the one he could relate more with, he had stopped short before he completed the task. Dele was strange enough and Ade was simply badluck, he could still felt the sour taste of his last gimmicks. And after all that's said and done, he kept to himself
and enjoyed it too.

Jide pushed open the door to see Daisy relaxing comfortably on the
settee, wriggling her legs in pleasure while she answered a call. She didn't notice him at first, but when she did, her countenance changed
and she hurriedly mumbled some words and cut the call.

Jide walked forward, he had half expected her home, since that happened to be the new status quo. He noticed she was wearing a pink short gown, he'd never seen it on her before, grudgingly he admitted that it flattered her complexion and made her look more sexy than he could ever
remember she was. But he wasn't appeased.

'madam' he stressed with a sarcastic tone, 'I see things are uping wonderfully well in your camp?' he added.

Daisy said nothing. She forced her eyes to stay on the television, while she wriggled her hand frantically. How had Brenda 'coached' her to react to him? She wondered helplessly. Yes! cool! Brenda had said: 'act so cool and nonchalant when he brings up that attitude'. Daisy glanced
at her shaky palms and exhaled, so much for acting cool. She thought drily.

Jide stood now, considering the form of Daisy as she sat there
pretending that he wasn't even in front of her. Her and this pink gown of hers which exposed her thighs conspicuously and a neckline which revealed a tip of the pure haven he was sure lay just below, he felt a sudden urge to drag her up and kiss the immobility out of her limp body
and draw a sound out of her silent lips. God! She was teasing and
driving him insane with all that annoying docility of hers.

Daisy felt uncomfortable, she sensed his hot gaze on her skin, suddenly she felt weak and started blaming herself for not running to her room
when she heard his car drive in. Losing fate but determined to leave the parlour, she stood up, colliding directly into him.

Jide made no move to shift.

Daisy muttered an incomprehensible apology or something and made to by
pass him, but before she could take a step forward, strong hand grabbed at her arm and pulled her back.

Daisy found herself in facing Jide, it was the closest she had ever been with him, immediately her heart started thumping. The smell of alcohol wafted to her nose, she couldn't bring herself to stare at his face. Her height perfectly matched his, though she was a trifle shorter.

After what felt like hours since they'd been standing, Jide finally
spoke between clenched teeth.

'don't think you call the shots around here, because of your seeming new acquired power, i still remain the MAN here, hopefully, you're not
planning on remaining 'chaste' forever are you? Cos i own every damn thing about you,' a pause, then 'Everything' he stressed.

His eyes travelled appreciatively then, from her face down, lingering on her bossom, then sliding up again to her face, where his eyes met hers peering intently at him.

Their gaze locked. One defiant and unyielding, the other surprised and awed.

Somehow, those words of Jide had melted something in Daisy's heart and
she had found herself bravely staring up to match his gaze. The
expression she'd seen and read on his face dissolved all her senseless
fright and in its place was a renewed feeling of strength and power.
This man that had terrorized her in fantasy and reality was finally
falling for her! As that realisation struck her, Daisy found her heart
pinning for revenge, a desire to make him suffer just the way he'd made
her. If love had ever inhabited her heart for this man standing before
her, she didn't feel it at that moment.

Jide on his part, had become lost and awed at the depth of her eyes, he
didn't know they were this beautiful and compelling! But then this was
the first time ever he was actually seeing this woman that was his wife.
She was indeed charming with an angelic face, he felt he would happily get lost in the spell her eyes cast.

Daisy smiled slyly then, a grin playing at the corner of her lips. Jide could bet that that smile of hers could light up the whole house, even his heart was already electrified by its warmth...no, maybe not warmth, the eyes held...something like mischief?

Danhumprey: Pls,can any sane Literary critic and fan,make any
sense out of this posthuh What with all the typos glaring in our
face,and yet you said you passed Jamb and got automatic ticket,abi
admission? Is dat how to spell 'ofcourse','being' instead of 'been'and
and other words wrongly misspelt? And yet you are critisizing somebody's
effort at contributing to an important piece of literary work. If you
were him,will you have done better?

Your own situation is like that of a teacher swapping role with one of
his student in his own class. That moment when the teacher turns to a student.
lets clap for him then, do you have a sense of synergy? can you confidently say that his piece match that of the others smiley
