Chapter 4

Iyunade walked into the house to meet her two housemates, Bunmi and Stella, in the living room watching their favourite Crime Investigation series, Hawaii Five-O while munching on popcorn. 

"What's up girls?" she greeted as she went to sit on the sofa.

Olubunmi Soriyan, a girl  Iyunade as always envied.

She was one of the most beautiful ladies in the university of Ibadan.

 A beautiful light-skinned girl who stood at 5 feet 7 inches. Her hair was cut low in the famous Anita Baker style and she was blessed with dark eyes framed with long thick lashes. 

She was also in the Agricultural Science Department like Iyun. She wasn't from a very rich home, but her family was comfortable and not lacking in anything. One thing to note about Bunmi was her preference for older, father-figure like men. There was no reason, she just preferred them. 

While Stella Enoabasi was dark-skinned and had curly dark natural hair with doe-like brown eyes. She could be described as cute due to her petite stature and innocent-looking facial features. 

However, what she lacked in height, she made up for in curves in all the right places. Stella, like Iyun, had to cater for her family which consisted of herself and two brothers who were living with one of their aunties from her mother's side. They had lost their parents in a fire accident four years ago. She was in the Department of Economics. 

Whenever the three of them went to a public place, they turned heads. It was just a norm for them and they didn't care anymore. 

"Iyun! Iyun! Iyunade, The Number One! Any other Iyunade is a counterfeit," Stella praised, raising her two hands up like a person about to be arrested and stomping her slipper-clad feet on the ground. 

"Stella, how many times do I have to complain for you to stop praising me like that?," Iyunade asked with a grin. 

"Babe, na you na (It's you)," replied Sarah. 

"Wo, na you sabi sef. How you dey na babes? (How are you babes?)," she said turning to Bunmi.

"I dey oo but I no too happy right now (I am fine but I am not too happy)," Bunmi replied, making Iyun smirk.

"Bunmi Bunmi, what happened this time between you and Senator Oladipupo?" Iyun asked knowingly. 

She had known Bunmi for a very long time. They had met and become friends since their first day in the University. She was even with Bunmi when she met the Senator for the first time. They had met Stella shortly after that. Somehow they had gelled and become fast friends even with their different personalities and backgrounds. 

The Senator always did his best to take very good care of Bunmi. He was the one who got the 3-bedroom apartment they were living in at a lease. His reasoning being that no girl of his and her friends would be caught staying in a common cluttered campus hostel.

 Each of the rooms in the apartment had its own toilet and bathroom, so the girls had their privacy when they wanted it. The apartment also had a fully furnished living room, dining area, kitchen and a mini store. The Senator got them a generator capable of powering the entire apartment and a solar inverter. Indeed, the girls were living in comfort. 

Iyun knew Bunmi was not always happy whenever she and her sugar daddy, Senator Oladipupo, had a disagreement. And it seemed like that was the case now.

"You know me too well, Iyun. Yes, the senator has started again. He says we can't meet this week again. It's been two weeks since we last saw each other and I am getting broke," Bunmi complained and Iyun smiled. 

She couldn't stop being jealous of Bunmi's life.  Bunmi had everything she wanted, she had a well-paying sugar daddy unlike that stupid Chief Adeakin. She didn't have any problems in her life like her piled-up ones. 

"You complain too much. I am sure the Senator is just busy, you know he can't  joke with you," she assured Bunmi.

"I know na. But I have missed him."

Iyun and Stella glanced at each other before erupting into laughter. 

"Na im you miss, abi im money? O girl, na wa for you o," Stella said in between laughter. 

Bunmi glared at Stella before flinging the throw pillow at her. Iyun shook her head at them and wiped away the tears that had slipped out whilst she was laughing. 

"Now to business. Girls, I need a well-paying job tonight. I desperately need ego (money)," she told them as she looked from one to the other. "So if you know any, abeg hook a girl up."

"Hmmmm. I get one job like that but I no know if you fi do am (I have a job but I don't know if you can do it)," Stella said. 

Iyun gaped at Stella like she had grown a horn on her head.

"Stella, you are funny o.  Why won't I be able to do it?  Na money we dey talk about o (It is money we are talking about oo). All you just have to do is give me the details of the job and I am off," Iyun assured. 

"The job is to be a waitress at Onyx Club around Dugbe area. The club is a very big and popular place for the rich. An added advantage for the workers is that they get to cover their faces with masks," Stella explained. 

"Ahhh! Stella, you are not good o. We have been in this house since morning and you didn't tell me about the job,"  Bunmi accused. 

"Aunty! Shut up. Why will I tell you when I know the Senator will send money to you soon. It is only Iyun I can introduce to job offers like this," Stella replied. 

"Thank you, my friend. Leave Bunmi alone o, she is hungry that's why she is saying rubbish.  Let me go and try to sleep before tonight jare," Iyun said as she stood up. 

"This is how you people will be excluding me everytime," Bunmi grouched in reply. 

I pray I get enough money tonight oo. Iyun thought as she walked to her room.
