Episode 21
There were in the denomination of N1000 naira notes and where in three bundles…
I counted it and it was N600,000 naira *N200,000 naira in each bundle...
I was shocked and at the same time happy…. I gave the money to Cynthia for safe keeping and we plunged into kisses and caressing and forgot about my intention to go to church…
The gesture from my prospective-in-laws had a lasting mark on our relationship..
The money would be used in preparation towards our marriage…
We moved from our single room to a two bedroom and a hall flat..
Our intentions were that by the end of the year, we should be able to finalise arrangements towards our marriage…
Our trip to Ajao Estate her home state and Ajegunle my home state was taken
by the public as a trip to perform the marriage rites and so people started calling
us Mr. And Mrs. Nazeal.
As we were making efforts to make our appointed day a reality, something happened that nearly marred our sweet romance and
relationship…**
**It happened that on that fateful day, I did not
fell well, so i decided to stay at home.. I sent a letter through Cynthia to the office to inform my superior of my incapacitation…
As I was in my hall reading. I heard somebody knocking on my door..
I asked the person to enter and a young man of
about twenty four years old entered…
I asked him to sit down which he did. I watched him very well and saw that this young man before me was agitated..**
Nazeal: Hey, How may i help you??
Man: Hy, I’m Sabinto, and I’m here to see Cynthia..
Nazeal: staring Why if i may ask?
Sabinto: What i have is for Cynthia and it’s between me and her alone…
His answers infuriated me but i tried my best to control my temper
Nazeal: Okay, if you insist.. i directed him to the office where Cynthia works
Sabinto: I won’t leave this place… I want to see
Cynthia now and in this house..
Nazeal: ** My man, I don’t want to be rude but I want to tell you that I own this place, and since you say its Cynthia you want to see, then it would be prudent for the two of you
to meet outside of this place..
**He pretended not to have heard me.. He just sat on a chair staring at the ceiling as if waht i was saying was rubbish…
Not knowing what to do.. I stood up and locked the door to my room, took the keys to the hall,, put on my shirt and walked towards the door..
Nazeal: Get out because me too am going out now…
**But he just sat there looking at me…
