After three weeks of excessive reading, the examination ended and I âreluctantlyâtravelled home for the one week âbreakâ .
I never really wanted to , i wanted to stay in school with Ademilade but my mom constant calls brought me back homeâŠ.
At home , I spend most of my time with my mum ,listening to her talk about her younger days and all that .
Although it was fun , I eagerly wanted to get back to school , I was missing my boyfriend , I wanted to be with him , the calls and video calls were not enough âŠ..
I silently counted the days until the week was over and finally, I will get to see âAde miâ, right on my birth day âŠâŠ
*
*
My sound sleep was disrupted by the sound of my phone ringing, not even my alarm.
I hissed loudly, who is this na?
I ignored it and let it ring to an end, but it began ringing again and I groaned out of my sleep and reached for the phone which was at the head of the bed .
I opened my bleary eyes to check out the caller and noticed it was Shakirat âŠ.
Smiling lightly, I received it
âHappy birthday bestie!â her loud voice rang through
I chuckled lightly. âThanks friendâ
âYou are welcome. so tell me , how are we going to celebrate it?
âhmmmmh!I canât really say until i get to schoolâ
âWhich is today right?â
âYes, Demi will come pick me up at the bus garageâ
â Ehen, So both of una don do your love wan tin tin reach your papa house â. she said teasingly , bringing a smile to my face
âbut he is not reaching my house naâ . I retorted
âOkay ooooo ! I don hear , let me sha know when you in schoolâ
âOkay !âI agreed and ended the phone callâ.
Yawning , I sat up in the bed and scrolled through my phone and saw tons of messages
Jeez! only me , I never knew people love me this much!
I kept on scrolling until I saw the name âAde mi ; then I clicked on it and read it
âGood morning baby. I am already on my way to âSangoâ, make sure you are at the bus garage on or before 9am, please donât keep me waitingâ
Like seriously! Is he for real? not even a single wish for my birthday
Frowning, I dialled his number and it rang until his voice mail picked up
I dialled it again but it was the same, and was about dialling it for the third time when a message from him popped on the screen
âI canât pick , I am drivingâ
Oh yeah! I bet he is
Getting off the bed , I pulled the covers over my younger sister, Chichi who was still sleeping and sauntered out of the room ,climbed down the straight stairs into the sitting room and met my mum praying ..
I leaned on the sofa patiently waiting for her and when she was done ,I rushed to her , hugging her from behind
âGood morning mum!â I greeted
She chuckled, turning around to face me
âMorning dear! how was your night?â
âIt was fine maâ. I replied , staring into her face
She looked so pale , as if she might faint âŠ
âyou alright?â I asked , softly
She nodded. âJust a little bit weakâ
âAre you sure?â I asked to be sure and she laughed lightly, tightening the scarf on her head
âOf course I am . So tell me , why are you up so early?âShe changed the topic
I glanced at the wall clock , it was 6: 30 am
âOr is it because you are eighteen (18) todayâ. she teased
âIt is not that oooo. I laughed lightly ,I am returning to school today, or have you forgotten so soon?â
âOh! I am sorry dear, it slipped my mindâ.she apologised, â but why canât you just leave tomorrow? âŠ.you should celebrate today with your familyâŠ..
âNo mum!I canât, I have to be in school todayâ
She was quiet for a while and then she sighed
âFine! let me go pack up a few things for youâ
âThere is no need for that maâ. I politely declined
âbut why?âShe asked , clearly surprise
âNothing much, I just donât want to carry loadâ
âHan! Han! Is that one talk , i will accompany you to the bus station naâ
Bus station! where Demi will be waiting!
âNo ooooo , you canâtâ. I blurted out and began walking toward the staircase
She laughed . âI can see you are trying to avoid any further questionsâ
Bingo! how did she know?
âhmmmmh!no problem ooo. donât sha forget to go to your father room, so he can pray for youâ
âbefore nko! that is even where I am heading toâ. I muttered as I climbed up the stairs âŠ.
âOya now! Birthday girlâ. She hailed, making me smile
She is indeed the best mum in the world!
*
The door to my dadâs room was slightly ajar and I cautiously pushed it opened and went it .
My dad was seated on his bed ,smiling sheepishly as he held a phone to his ear.
He was so engrossed in the call that he failed to notice me âŠ
âNo Angela! I love you but my family comes firstâ. I heard him say
I scoffed silently, who is Angela again?
I cleared my throat to get his attention and it worked, he looked at me, startled,ending his call
âWhen did you get here?âhe asked , harshly
âLong enough to hear you talk to Angelaâ. I mumbled to myself
âPardon!â He raised an eyebrow
âI wasnât talking to youâ. I retorted in a huff , making him scoff
âThen why are you here?â
â Today is my birthday âI grunted my response
âOh!oh! Oh! Happy birthday dear, I completely forgot!
I hissed silently, Like he always remember!
âGo on Your knees!â he instructed and when I did, he began âspeaking in tonguesâ on my head
It was the usual practice in the family and I always do feel excited , but todayâs feeling was different, I was kind of nervousâŠ.
I kept my eyes wide open ,my arm across my chest, staring hard at him
Is he cheating on my mum?Is that why she is looking pale? Is that why he is hardly around? Is thatâŠ.
âIn Jesus name we pray?â his thunderous voice ,snapped me out of my thoughts âŠ..
âAmen!â I replied with a low voice
He smiled . âYou can stand up dearâ
Using his bed as a support , I got up from the tiled floor
âThanks you sirâ
âIt is nothingâ. he assured, âyou going back to school today right???â
I nodded
âGood! I already transferred #20, 000 into your account, manage it for two weeksâ
I widened my eyes in surprise
20,000!for two weeks! Amazing!
âAlsoâ. he reached his hand out for the money on the drawer and handed it to me
âTake this for your transport fareâ
I looked down at the money , counting it silently
5000! for real! why is he acting so nice?
The dad I know will âpractice Economicsâ on youâ and give you the money he thinks is enough, this one he is adding extra , me I donât understand ooooooâŠ..
He cleared his throat and continued
âYou see Uju, I have been noticing the changes in you , the way you dress , the long hours you spend on calls , the designer clothings you wear , the slippers , even your âdevilishâ looking hair â
âDevilish!â I repeated, touching the âlace frontalâ on my head âŠ.
âYes Devilish! Canât you see the way you are looking like a marine spirit? Donât you notice the way boys lurk around the corners of house because of you?Do you think it is right?No child , it isnât , studying should be your main priority and not boys âŠ.
âBut I am not going after boysâ. I defended myself
âI didnât say you going after boys, I am just saying you should be careful, donât let any boy deceive you , face your studies squarelyâ
I nodded . âOkay sir!â
âGood girl! so have your mom packed up some stuffs for youâ
I scratched my hair , confused about what to say
âErm I will erm tell her to erm packâ. I stuttered
He nodded . âAlright then! you should go get readyâ
âThanks sir!â I muttered
Retreating my step, I sauntered out of his room , closed the door behind me and walked through the short passage to my roomâŠ.
*
Pushing the door opened, I walked in to see an empty room and from the sound of water running, I could tell Chichi was in the bathroomâŠ
I collapsed on the bed and reached for my phone and unlocked it to see a missed call from Faith âŠ
So she remember my birthday sef!
I leaned back on the bed , about to dial her number when my six year old brother , Chidi rushed into the room , screaming âHappy birthdayâŠâŠ.
Faith will have to wait!
I chuckled lightly , holding him in my arms, careful not to stain his white school uniform
âSo what will you give me for your birthday?âhe asked
I smiled, pinching his nose lightly
âYou are the one I should be asking thatâ
âHan! Han! but I am small naâ. he squeezed his face and I was forced to laugh
âFine!So what do you want?â
His eyes lit up . â I want you to see me off to my school busâ
âReally! Just that!â I retorted in surprise .
He nodded . âMum is sick and I donât want to stress herâ
Instantly, the anxiety in me increased
âHow sick is she?â
âWe donât knowâ. Chichi answered , coming out of the bathroom
âBut not to worry, she will be fineâ. She quickly added ,making me smileâŠ.
âAmenâ. I muttered
âSo what time will you be leaving for school?â She asked , changing the topic
I shrugged , glancing at the wall -clock
âBefore 8:30â
âhmmmm! and Demi will be waiting for you at the Bus garage rightâ. She said teasingly , winking at me
I shot her a surprise look, how did she know?
She laughed. âDonât act all surprise,I overheard when you were telling your friendâ
Oh right! she wasnât sleeping!
âWho is Demi?â Chidi asked , looking at Chichi and then at me âŠ..
âHe is not someone a small kid like you should know â. Chichi snapped at him
âOkay ooooâ.he raised his hands in defeat , facing me
âSha be fast, I donât want my school bus to leave meâ
With that , he left the room âŠ..
âChichi smiled mischievously. â so you are the one accompanying him to his school busâ
âYesâ I replied , standing up , âthat is what he wants â
âMe nko! what will you give me?â
I smirked. âSee mouth! what will you give meâ. I micmic, âyou that have not wish me happy birthdayâ
âOoops! I completely forgot! happy birthday , long life and prosperityâ. she said in a rush
âNo! It is too lateâ
âPlease naâ. She pleaded as I laughed
âFine!take any of my clothes that you likeâ. I said ..
she screamed with laughter , rushing to my backpack
âThanks sis!âshe appreciated and began searching the pink bag
âI also want the pyjamas on youâ
I looked down at the blue pyjamas
âBut it will be big on youâ
âI donât care! I will wear it like thatâ. She retorted
âAlright!â I simply said as I went into the bathroom to freshen up.
Pulling off the pyjamas, I dumped it into the cloth basket ; then I brushed my teeth and had a long refreshing bath.
When done , I reached for my towel, tied it around my body and returned to see an empty and scattered roomâŠ.
Nawa ooo! See the way this girl just scatter cloth everywhere!
I jumped over a huge pile of cloth to the wardrobe; then I opened it and took out a neatly ironed pink gown âŠ.
Towelling off , i creamed my body , wore my undies and changed into the gown; then I brush down the long hair, put on a white sandals , picked up my phone and dashed out of the roomâŠ.
I climbed down the stairs into the sitting room and met Chidi and my mum talking in whispers .
hmmmmh! What are they talking about?
Seeing me ,they stopped âtheir whisperingâ and started laughing
âhmmmh! Uju , So Demi is the reason why you donât want me to accompany you to the bus garageâ. My mom said , smiling
âErm erm not erm really mumâ. I stuttered, staring hard at Chidi and he looked away , still laughing
What a loud mouthed annoying kid!
âThen what is this I am hearing about him coming to pick you upâ
I sighed deeply, i guess it is time to tell the truth
âYes mum! he is coming to pick me upâ
My mum continued. â why didnât you tell me?â
âi was scared that you might get angryâ. I replied , searching her gaze for traces of anger and to my relief, I found none âŠ
She was quiet for a while and then she exhaled deeply
âI want to see himâ
âWhat!â I exclaimed with shock written all over my face
âYes child , I want to see the boy you are datingâ
But you have spoken with him naâ. I queried
She smiled. âIt doesnât mean. Go see your brother off and when you come ,we will go to the bus garage togetherâ
With a curt nod, I took Chidiâs hands into mine and we both walked out of the house , to the big compound where Chichi was pacing up and down restlessly âŠ
âWhat is wrong with this one?â I thought and said aloud
She looked in my direction as she huffed
âIs it not that annoying driver that wants me to go to school late , he went to buy fuel since morning and he is still not backâ
Chidi chuckled. âthank God I am following school bus oo
âI donât blame you naâ. Chichi looked daggers at him
I smiled lightly âDonât worry he willâŠ. I paused , trailing off when the driver rushed into the compound, panting
âI am very sorry , there was a long queue in the petrol stationâ
âWhatever!â Chichi brushed his explanation aside , climbing into the back seat
That is my sister for you , the Action lady!
âBye sis! she waved at me
âBye! I waved back and began walking out of the compound , my âloud mouthedâ brother walking beside me
Now it is time to finish him!
âYou abi, so you went to tell Mummy about Demiâ
âEhen! Did I do anything bad?âhe retorted, nonchalantly , he wasnât even remorseful!
âOkay now! Come and see who will buy spider man toy for youâ
Immediately, he became Sober
âHan! Han! Uju, but you promise me naâ
âLikewise Arinzeâ. I stated
âArinze! that one that have been posting me up and down! no oooo, I canât believe him againâ
I bit my lips ,trying so hard not to laugh
This boy is so funny!
He continued. âPlease na ,I promise not to tell mummy about Demi againâ
I smiled lightly, that was what I wanted to hear him say!
âAlright! I will buy the toy for youâ
âYay! he screamed excitedly, âand when will that be?
âWhen next I come homeâ. I promised and he smiled
*
We got to the Junction just in time to see the school bus drive into the parking space .I let go of Chidi hand , bending over to peck his forehead
âNo!â.he shook his head , touching his lips and I smiled , brushing his lips lightly with mine
âI love you babyââ. I said
âI love you tooâ. he responded and began running to the bus
I stood there, watching him till he climbed into the bus and then I sauntered to the main road to look for a bike
I was too tired to trek back home and moreover, it was 8am , just an hour to the time Demi gave me âŠ
Speaking of which, He was yet to call or text me
What is wrong with him sef? Did he forget about my birthday?âŠâŠ hmmm! he dares not or else I will kill him!!!
I soon saw a bike and was about flagging it down when a familiar voice call my name . I looked in the direction and saw Faith waving at me ,smiling
She was dressed in a very long and shapeless gown and was holding only a small handbag!
Na dem! holy at home and wild in school!
I returned the smile and briskly walked to her
âHappy birthday!â She greeted as she gave me a side hug
âThanks ooooâ
âI called your number but you didnât pick upâ
I sighed softly. Wo!Donât mind me Jare, I was with my Dad thenâ
âOh! So Awfar , when are you returning to school?â
âToday! I replied ,
âOkay now! we will see in school?â
I shot her a puzzled look . âAre you going to school like this ?â
âHum! Hum!â she nodded
âWithout any loadâ
She exhaled deeply. âYes ooo!things are very tight at home , even to eat is war, i havenât even completed my school feesâ
âSeriously!â I exclaimed with a wide open eyes , âbut the school portal will soon close na!
âI know and I am seriously worried, I donât even know what to doâ. She said with a cracked voice, making me pity her âŠ..
âhmmm! So how much is left?â
60, 000âł. She replied slowly
Really! Just #60,000!
âNot to worry, I will transfer the money to youâ
She frozed on the spot , staring at me like I was a ghost
âUju! You said you will what?â
âTransfer the money to youâ.I repeated and the next thing that followed was her screams
Yay! Uju! thanks you so muchâ
I chuckled. âIt is nothingâ
âNo ooo! It is something oo, do you âŠ.she paused, trailing off .
Her gaze dropped to my phone and her brows lifted
âiPhone 12! that is iPhone 12 right?â
I nodded proudly. â Demi got it for me on the day I travelled down home
âEhen!so What about your Android phone?â
âOh that! I gave it to Shakiratâ. I retorted, smiling
âhmmmh!your boyfriend is really trying oooâ
âYes oooo!he keeps on buying stuffs for me and sending money to my account even without me asking â
âOh! I can see!âShe remarked softly and swears, i detected a hint of Jealousy in her voiceâŠ..

The in-car navigation system stopped in front of a rowdy and crowded bus garage , full of touts . I drove into garage, parking out in front
Is this the âSangoâ garage?â I wondered
and rolled down the window, looking around
Immediately , two of the touts rushed to me
âTwale baba!â they hailed in unison and I nodded in response
âAnything for the boysâ
I scoffed silently, boys! Do they still see themselves as boys?âŠ..well! since they need a tip off from me , they should as well answer my question!
I faked a smile . âIs this place âSangoâ garage?â
âYes baba!â. The fairer between them replied and I nodded , looking around
âGood!â
I dipped my hands into my pocket and took out a thousand Naira note , handing it to him
I have no money to waste!
âHelp me manage thatâ. I begged
and without waiting for their response, I rolled up the window,glancing at my wristwatch
It was already 8:50am ,My girlfriend should be here in 10 minutes!
Reclining in the seat , I reached for my phone, about to call Kewe when his call came in
I received it
âGuy!awfar! I was about to call you , how did it go?â I said in a rush
He sighed. âFine bro! I was able to secure the hall at Times Square hotelâ
âThanks! I appreciated , âhow much is the rental fee?â
â#50, 000 for an all night party !â
I shrugged. âThat is a bit fair, I will transfer the money to you nowâ
âThere is no need for that , Tobi has already settled the billsâ
âTobi!â I repeated in surprise
âYes ooo! he paid for it saying it was his birthday present to your girlfriendâ
âOh! I exclaimed softly, âwhere is he? Is he with you?â
âNo!but he is somewhere sha, flirting with a bar girlâ
I laughed loudly, Tobi will never change!
Kewe continued. âso where are you, have you gotten to her place?â
âHer place ke! no ooo, do you want her father to skin me alive?I am in one noisy bus -park like that waiting for herâ
He laughed hard and long
âSo you havenât seen her?â
âYes â.i replied and that was the exact moment I sighted her walking towards my direction, a slim woman beside herâŠ.
âShe is already hereâ. I told kewe , â i will join you guys at the hotel as soon as I get back to schoolâ.
âNo qualms!donât be longâ
âAlright!â I agreed and ended the call
Opening the car door , I slid my legs out one after the other as I alighted , my gaze fixed on the woman beside my girlfriend
Who is she? I wondered, staring hard at her and only then did I notice the stricken resemblanceâŠ.
F**k! her Mother!
quickly, I rushed to them , putting on my best smile âŠ
âGood morning ma!â I greeted , nervously
Her mother smiled. âmorning dear!!how are you?
âI am fine ma!â I replied, glancing at Uju whose face was squeezed up in a little frown
What is wrong with her?
Her mother continued. âHmmm! so I have finally gotten to see the guy who is Dating my daughterâ
I chuckled nervously as she stared into my eyes deeply
âI know what you did to my daughter , I knew you deceived her into taking her virginityâ.she whispered , making me swallow hard
Why is she saying this now?⊠I mean she was so friendly when we talked on the phoneâ
âerm i am sorry ma , I deeply regretted what I didâ
She smiled lightly. âIt is a good thing you accepted your mistakes and please donât ever hurt my daughter againâ
âI wonât maâ. I promised
âGood! Also put God first in whatever you do ,read the bible , abides to its teachingsâ.she smirked, âI hope you understand what that meansâ
I shook my head negatively
âSimple! Donât get intimate with my daughter ever again until you pay her bride priceâ
I laughed inwardly, is she for real! I should not have sex with my girlfriendâŠ..very impossible!
âAlright ma!â I merely agreed and she nodded, smiling
â Let me get going, I wish you both safe journey back to school
âThanks ma!â I muttered
âAlright dear! she said and then faced her daughter who was still frowning
âUju!okay now! I will be on my way now and please do not forget all of my advice
âI wonât mum!â
Her mum continued. âBe a good girl and face your studies squarely
âTrust me na! i will come out in first classâ. She boasted, making me smile
I have really missed her!
Her mother faced me , âAnd you too Demi!
âYes ma!â
âIt is Mumâ
âOh! Alright mumâ. I corrected myself and with a wave , she crossed to the other side of the road!
I stood there , watching her till she climbed into a taxi and then I faced my pretty girlfriend
âHappy birthday baby!â
She hissed loudly and began walking to the car
âKeep the wishes to yourselfâ
I chuckled softly, following behind her
âI am sorry nowâ. I apologised and that was it, she flared up
âSorry! did you just say that? no! no! no! I canât listen to that, I can never listen to that . Today is my birthday and my âprecious boyfriendâ did not send me as little as a text message
Chai!if only she knew âŠâŠ
She continued, holding her waist as she vibrated
So tell me,why didnât you message me? why didnât you pick my call?
âThat is because i was busyâ
âBusy!â She rolled her eyes, âunbelievable!
I smiled lightly, pinning her against the car
âBusy fixing up your birthday giftâ
She swallowed hard , her intense gaze fixed on my lips
âMy birthday gift!âShe muttered , pouting her lips
I stared hard at her lips , her sexy lips, i was tempted to kiss her, delve my tongue into her throat and make her moan out my name but no, we were in a public place and I donât want to be seen as crazy!
âGet into the car!â I simply instructed and when she did , I climbed into the car ,pulled into the road and drove speeding off to schoolâŠâŠ

Finally! After a four hour drive, Demi got to his houseâŠ
He drove through the gate into the compound, parking in front of his apartment, right beside a âŠ..black Benz
Hun! Did he buy a new car?â
Opening the door , we both stepped out of the car at our different ends: and then we climbed up the short step to the balcony
Using his key, he was about to unlocked the door when it creaked opened.
I shot him a puzzled look . âIs anyone inside?â
He merely shrugged and opened the door wide and we walked in to see âŠ..Susanna
Instantly , my heart exploded in me
â what are you doing here?â I yelled
âAnd what does it look like to youâ. She snapped at me , moving closer to Demi , â I am here to spend the night at my boyfriend place
âBoyfriend!Demi scoffed, âdonât embarrass yourself and please leave quietly
She huffed. âDonât tell me you are choosing this thing over me â.she eyed me coldly
âI am not a thingâ. I butted in and Demi sighed, pulling me closer
âSee Susanna!what else can I do to make you know that i am no longer interestedâ
Nothing oooo!You are mine and mine alone
âThen you must be sick!he retorted in a huff , pleeeease leave my house,I have lot of things to take care of
She shook her head vigorously. âI wonât do that , i canât do that , I love you soâŠâŠ
âBut I donât love youâ. Demi cut in âŠ.
âNo! you love me , you are just confused, please take your word back , tell me you love meâ. She pleaded so desperately
I stared in surprise at her, she was obviously delusional
âNo Susanna I donât love you and will never ever willâ. Demi stated , making me smile âŠ.
Embarrassed by her tears, she grabbed her hand bag and ran out of the house âŠ
And as for me , I collapsed on the sofa, laughing
âChai Demi! I really love the way you gave it to herâ
he smiled lightly, squatting in front of me
âI love you baby, Donât ever doubt thatâ
âAwwww! I love you tooâ
âI know!â
âEhen! before I forget, where is my birthday gift?â. I asked , stretching out my hands
he chuckled, âI knew you would askâ
âBefore nko! where is it?â I repeated
âActually. he cleared his throat, â I want to throw an all night party for youâ
I widened my eyes in surprise. âLike seriously!â
âYes! the party will hold at time square hotel by 9pm
I nodded slowly, it was my first time celebrating a big birthday and i didnât know how to feel about itâŠ.
He continued. âeverything you need is inside the room and also Chioma will help you with your make upâ
âNo! Shakirat will help me with itâ
âYour friend?â he asked to be sure
âI nodded , She is a makeup artistâ
Oh! If that is the case , invite her overâ
With that , He reached for the master key sitting on the centre table and handed it to me..
I looked at the key and then back at him
âWhat should I do with it?â
âIt is yoursâ. he simply replied and I shot him a confused look
âThe car is outsideâ. he added and instantly, I heard a high pitch squeal, I didnât realise it was my own until much later
I stared dazedly at him. âMy car!â
He chuckled.âYes! the black Benzâ
Hastily , I got off the sofa and dashed out of the house , climbed down the short step to the black Benz, My carâ
My eyes watered as I stared it , it was just too good to be true
âMy car! I muttered in disbelief, â so this is my car?
âDo you like it?â a voice asked from behind me âŠ. Ademilade
I turned around, hugging him tightly
âThank you! Thank you very muchâ
He pulled out of the hug to stare at my face and then he smiled
âHappy birthday babyâ.he whispered and I nodded slowly
I was too gobsmacked to say anything, Tears of Joy rolled down my cheek, all I could do was to stare at my carâŠ.
âI need to go Join the others at the hallâ. Demi said softly
âIs the party going to be a big one?â I asked
He shrugged. âSome like that , you should also invite your friendsâ
âAlright!â I said softly and he winked at me, climbing into his car
Smiling, I watched him drive out of the compound and then I dialled Shakiratâs number
She picked it on the first ring
âHello Juliet! howâŠâŠ.
âI have got a âbabyâ. I squealed so loudly , drowning her voice âŠ..

The drive was a fast one as I broke the speed limit , wasting no time to get to the hotel , Time square hotelâŠ
I drove into the compound,parking in front of a large hall, then I alighted from the car and walked into the hallâŠ.
Standing in front, my eyes wandered around for Kewe and i saw him seated at the extreme corner with âŠâŠTobi and Bola
I sauntered up to them
âHey!â I greeted , smiling lightly as they looked at me
âAh Demi! I was even about to call youâ. Kewe stated , â what about the birthday girl?â
âShe is at homeâ. I replied
âWhat home!âTobi said teasingly and I gave him a playful glare, sitting down beside him
âThanks man forâŠâŠ
He scoffed, cutting me off
âWhat did I do? moreover Kewe was the one who paid for the drinks
I shot Kewe a surprise look
Tobi continued. â And Bola took care of the food aspect
I stared at them with my mouth wide opened, I was speechless
I never expected them to do all this
âKewe chuckled. âAbeg close your mouth Jare or you wan make fly enter
We all laughed
âThanks guys for everythingâ. I appreciated
âNah! You donât need toâ. Bola said, waving it off with his hands
âSo have you gifted her the car?â Kewe suddenly asked
I nodded
He continued. âhmmmh !So tell us , how was her reaction?â
I smiled proudly. âWell! she was erm happy and âŠ. I paused when i heard someone call my name âŠ.
âDave!â Tobi muttered, nudging at me to look sideways and when I did, I saw Dave walking towards us , Prince and Tony following behind him
Who the hell invited them?
âDemi!âHe called again as he got closer, âwhere is the birthday girl?â he grinned
Why is he asking about her?
âShe is not hereâ. I answered rudely
âOh! when is the party starting?â
â9pmâ. Tobi replied him
â9pm!âhe repeated , squeezing his face , as if thinking
âI guess I will have to waitâ. he sighed and began walking to the next table with his âescortâ
âWho invited him here?â I asked in whispers, banging my fist on the table
âI donât knowâ. Kewe replied
âThen how did he get to about the birthday party?â
They exchanged confused look among themselves
I bit my lips in anger , turning side ways to Dave and met his cold gaze
He smiled lightly and then looked away
Instantly, a cold chill washed over me , leaving me with a deep feeling, a feeling that he âŠ..::is stalking me âŠ.
