Thanks Love, I don't do Heineken.

pinetulips: describing
Hester was splendid, Xters description is special nd perfect, hows ur
health now lady writer with the Saphire pen? good i guess. Nice work ma
lady.

My prediction is that Hester ll dissapoint Osas when it comes to issues of marriage, she has serious trust issues, but she ll fall in love wth Ethyl, Osas will mend his broken heart with Victoria, Oladimeji will marry Aghata

Love your imagination dear. let's see how it goes.

In no time, he came back and sat beside Ethel.'Tell me pal, do you think it is okay for her to be like that? '

He forgave him and gave him full attention. 'I don't know. Maybe the ladies stuff. '

'This is beyond ladies stuff.' His look was thoughtful.

Ethel raised his brows. 'So what do think is wrong with her?'

'I wish I knew Ethel, I don't know. I am worried. '

'There is only one way to find out, go talk to her.' Ethel suggested.

'Go talk to her? ' He appeared unsure as he stood.

'Hahan! ' Ethel glared at him incredulously. 'I said you should go talk of her or you want me to say it in Japanese? '

Osagie took few steps forward and turned to look at Ethel. 'Let us go together. '

Ethel burst into laughter as he stood.

+++++

****

I think something is wrong, no smiles, no jokes, she has been too quiet for my liking. ' Osagie posture was a relaxed one on the sofa but he was pensive.

Ethel concentrated on the newspaper as if he didn't hear him.

'This is unlike Hester,' He sat at the edge of his sofa. 'Knowing we are both around, she should have kept us company. ' He looked at his friend and groaned. 'Ethel! '

'Huh…?' He didn't even look up.

'Ethel, haven't you been listening to me? '

'Goodness gracious, what is it ehen? ' He gave him a burning look. 'This article am reading contain some mind blowing facts. '

'Ethel am worried about Hester, she did not join us for breakfast. Neither did she take anything for lunch and dinner. '

'You wouldn't know that, we spent ample time out today. '

'Mwihaki complained, besides, I observed. This is unlike her, she would have been here by now to keep us company. I strongly feel something is wrong. '

'Tell me BF when did you become a Psyche and how much of feelings do you now have? '
Ethel peered at him with a smile.

'Flush the pleasantries, am not in the mood! ' His voice rose and he turned aside looking away from him. He had expected him to reason with him and not to make caricature.

'I was minding my own business o! ' Ethel went back to newspaper maintaining his smile.

Osagie stood and walk out to the balcony adjoining the sitting room and started pacing .

He watched him leave knowing he was bothered, he was also bothered but he wanted his friend to come out straight so he could know his true intentions.

....

Fonydear: Am here Queen , have been away for a while. Not going anywhere again

Osagie replayed, play and then slowed the scene. It was a clip on the forced marriage. It was Ethel's copy of the event.

'Gegeege-ge! oooops and up in the air.' He glanced at Hester. 'How did you manage such precision? ' He was referring to the ring, flower and exit.

Hester remained quiet as she watched the scene.

Ethelbert watched her.

'It was Perfect Hess, pure psychology, you worked on their minds. You deserve a drink for such perfection. ' He stood and her got her one.

She collected it and thanked him.

Based on what she heard, the president so upset about the happenings that he grounded two media houses, five reporters got arrested. Yet it hadn't keep most of the media houses from releasing lashing headlines and stories. The president even got on the verge of declaring a state of emergency for his son dignity.

Suddenly she felt choked, she excused herself without the drink.

Ethel knew she was disturbed. Osagie had not noticed since he was engrossed with the clip.

soul minister: sometimes, I get confused in your story and sometimes, I enjoy it (because am flowing).

some scences are missing.

I thought osagie left hester in kenya for Nigeria and met ethel? so how did the trio meet in this last update

Sweetie every transition cannot be written. Ethel went back to Kenya with Osagie.

Jesse4mu: corks pump action* oladimeji or osagie, if either one of you get 2 heart, cross this line* draws line

Huh... I ain't there

Jesse4mu: *kneels on one leg* Hester douglas will you be my heroine??

Let Oladimeji or Osagie catch you.

D9ty7: The Queen of this kingdom is sighing and shaking head. It seems as if she is sweating.
Secretery Whiz give one of those boys a hand fan so he can fan our Queen.
Ur highness!

This one goes beyond fanning Duro.

This was the fifth time her phone was ringing and the number was strange. That apart, she didn't feel like picking any calls, same as the day before.

Her legs were crossed, she looked up from the magazine she had collected from Ethel. When it was the seventh time, she picked the phone and dragged the receive key. She waited

''Hello Sweetheart …''

She held her breath.

''Sweetheart? ''

'Hi, who am I on to? '

"I am your one and only sweetheart, don't ever forget. "

'You are nobody to tell me what I should or shouldn't do Oladimeji. You shouldn't give yourself hope on me 'cause you are making the biggest mistake of your life.'

'Hester you should be apologi …'

'Shut your trap and listen to me! I don't give a hoot about the relationship you had or have with my parents but you will never have me. Let me give you some pieces of information that will be handy since your head is not yet upgraded. Hester Douglas can never be yours, you don't mean a thing to me, you don't belong to my class, we are not of same social status, you are not my calibre, we don't share same beliefs, we don't have same physiology about life and our value system has no similarities!'

He exhaled. "Hester I love you and I've forgiven you for everything you have ever done to me. I expect you to be sober, your tongue to be bridle, I expect you to be apologizing. '


'To blazes with you and expectations Oladimeji Adeniyi! Open your eyes, clean your ears, wake up Oladimeji wake up, get a wet handkerchief and wipe your face. You have crossed your rubicon with me, I was proud to announce to the world that you have no hope with me. Pitch your tent somewhere else.'

'No matter how far you run, you can never hide, I will come because you are mine.'

'Yeh! Please …please, I am afraid Oladimeji, I am quivering, very funny.' She laughed. 'You should be ashamed, I have broken many of your rules and you have never been able to do a thing. I am not afraid of you that is Why I jilted you at the altar, that is Why I did what a thousand and one wouldn't dare. I am not browbeaten about the power you possess. let your tail lie between your legs, lick your wounds, pick up the broken pieces of your heart and move on.' With that she ended the call.

She hissed and picked the magazine.

Oooops! I did it again! How did my description of Hester go?

'He is the hope Nigerians cling to of ever getting to the ovation level in the next couple of years.'

'You are a presidential candidate? ' She stood six feet tall and looked up at him, she had a diamond face with her thick black long natural hair starting from half her forehead, with captivating brown eyes she had inherited from her grandpa, with a skin colour that reminded one of Milo
ad. One wouldn't call her fat nor slim.

'Yes I am. You seem surprised. Are you like that man that don't even know when Nigeria had her independence. '

'When you're through, you will explain in simple terms what that means! ' Osagie retorted.

Hester smiled. 'I am better off, It's just that politics is not my turn on.'

Ethel smiled too, then waited. He had never felt the need to obey the rule - allow the lady to extend her hand first. He had never considered it important …until now. He glanced at Osaz who had seen through him and didn't hesitate in giving him the "You see! " look. Then he placed his hand over his mouth as he was beside himself with laughter.

'You are actually waiting for me to extend my hand.'

Geez! She had read his mind.

'I know you to an extent, I have heard so much about you though have not had the privilege of meeting you one on one …until now. Victoria... told me so much that can as a matter of fact make up for your biography. ' She grinned when he went wide eyed .

He beamed in fond remembrance. She had also told him so much about Hester.

'Here we are, you being good friends with my Osagie, we are not strangers while act like one? 'She opened her arms.

He covered the distance and an Italian hug was established.

'Perfect! ' Osagie clapped enthusiastically. 'wish I had a camera. '

'Give us a standing ovation then.' Ethel commanded.

Osagie stood still clapping and then he whistled.

'You should cure your bf of this craziness.' Hester joked.

'Hmmm Hess …' Ethel began. 'You wouldn't believe how much time, where have been to, the concoctions have had to swallow on his behalf. All, to no avail.' Ethel told her amusingly and settled beside Osagie.

Osagie burst into bouts of laughter.

Hester followed suit. Laughing, she excused herself.

'I told you, I will trim your wing.' Osagie delivered a well formed fist to Ethel side.

'Yeh! Yeh! ' He exclaimed and bent over.

Hester hurried in.

They both became serious.

'Is everything all right? ' She looked from Ethel to Osagie.

'Yeah! sure! ' They chorused.

She glanced at them skeptically but left once more.

Ethel dropped down on his knees and bend over clutching his side. 'Mummy …' He cried.

Osagie laughed merrily.
