Interesting.

Interesting.

Nice one.

Nice one.

I had forgotten about her and the niece she said would be coming over to stay temporarily in my place. Now, I was being reminded.

“Okay. I think she will have to meet me in the office. I’ll be in the office then. Or better still, send her number to me.”

“I’ve given her yours. I’ll send hers to you, right away.”

“Okay.”

“Thanks.”

“You’re welcome.”

As soon as the line was disconnected, as if on cue, Edith’s call came through.

“Hello, sir. Is that Mr. Henry Alashe? This is Edith, Aunty Linda’s niece on the line.”

“Oh, Edith, your aunty just called me now. She said you’ll soon be arriving in the city.”

“Yes.”

“I won’t be at home when you come. Can you take a cab to Apo? I’ll send you a description to my office.”

“Okay, sir.”

“Alright, see you, Edith.”

About thirty minutes later, I got a call from one of the security details that A Miss Edith Bulus would like to see me. I told him to allow her entry. Another couple of minutes later, Edith came into my office.

“Good day, sir,” she greeted, curtseying.

“Good day, Edith. How was your trip?”

“Fine, sir.”

“Okay. You have to give me a couple of hours before I’ll close for the day. You will stay at the secretary’s office. if you’re hungry, tell her. She will get you something to eat.”

“Thank you, sir.”

I went back to work. At exactly four-thirty, I decided to call it a day.

“Did you have anything for dinner?” I asked Edith as we moved down to the car park.

“Yes, the secretary got some food for me.”

I nodded, knowing that I had instructed the secretary to do that. She put her luggage in the booth of the car and joined me at the front seat.

“So, what will you be studying at the university?” I asked as I drove the CRV out of the assembly complex.

She smiled. “Political Science.”

‘Hmn, interesting. You want to join politics too?”

“Ah, no o,” she said quickly. “Maybe I’ll just work in the Ministry like my aunt.”

I nodded. Deliberately, I had decided not to stare at her or study her, but I could still say something about her, all the same.

Edith couldn’t be more that eighteen. She was a petite one who was still budding into full womanhood.

She had a light skin and a pretty face. In a way, she reminded me of when Kike first came to live with my parents in Lagos. But then, the former was much bustier. I quickly checked myself and stopped making comparisons.

In my flat, I took Edith to the room she would be staying. I showed her the bathroom and the toilet she would be using. I also showed her the kitchen.

“I don’t cook but eat out. However, if you want to cook, you can always use the kitchen. There are still some foodstuffs, but if you need any, let me know.”

“Thank you, uncle.”

She went to her room while I sat in the sitting-room to watch the local news. She seemed to be the reserved type, so I let her be.

The following morning, I woke up five-thirty to start preparing for the day. After I had dressed up, I went to knock on the door of my guest.

She was obviously still asleep.

“Hello, good morning.”

“Good morning, uncle.”

“How was your night?”

“Fine, thank you.”

“I’m on my way to the office. aren’t you going for lectures or something?”

“I’ll soon be going.”

“Good. You can help yourself in the kitchen.” I dipped my hands into my pocket. “Have this in case you need something. Then, have this key. That’s your own key to the apartment. When you’re going out, lock it.”

“Okay sir. Thank you, sir.”

I left the apartment and went off to work. That Tuesday, immediately I closed from the office, I went to the club I went to once in a while to cool off. I took a couple of bottle of beers and spicy sharwama before I left for home.

Edith opened the door of my apartment for me.

“Hello, Edith.”

“Welcome, uncle.”

There was a total transition from the Edith I had seen the previous day. She had changed from the girl that looked like a very timid one to one that was very sexy.

She was wearing a T-shirt and bum short, like a young university student that she was, but seriously looking like a pretty young thing.
