The next morning, she was awoken by the sounds coming out from the backyard. She yawned tiredly and winced in pain as she felt pains all over her body. The bed was small and she had managed to help herself from falling during the night.She sat up on the bed as she looked around the room. Amos was nowhere to be found and she wondered where he was off to. It was morning already and she could see a ray of the beautiful sunrise which settled on the window. She stood up from the bed and tied the cloth firmly across her chest as she walked out of the room. She couldn't notice a presence around the house."Oops! Everyone must be in the kitchen," she exclaimed as she hurried out immediately.She knew she would get scolded by Mrs Eno for sleeping so late when she was supposed to be up early, assisting in the kitchen. African moms are like that; strict and intolerant, she thought as she walked out of the house."Oh, our Iyoba(Queen mother) has arrived," she heard Mrs Eno sing in appraisal as
She became flabbergasted as she saw him walking away angrily."Wasn't that why we're here? Why is he angry?" She asked inaudibly."Amos! Wait for me!" She called as she ran over to him.She stood in front of him and he stopped and looked away from her."Are you jealous?" She asked with a smile."I'm not. Why would I be?" He asked with a scoff."If you like me already, you can just tell me so I can consider you to be on the list," she said and they both laughed."I don't like you, but I'm concerned about you. You don't deserve to be hurt," he said with all sincerity.Her heart sank as she got lost in his eyes and she opened her mouth to speak but the words became stuck."Thanks for being concerned about me. You're sweet," she said and planted a peck on his cheek.His lips broke into a smile and he touched his cheek while she giggled."Come on, where are we going?" She asked, climbing on his back."Let Me take you to somewhere you'll love," he said."What are we waiting for?" She asked
He tried to speak but the words became stuck in his throat and he could see her eyes welling up with tears.He didn't know what to do or say at the moment and he felt guilty for bringing up the topic about her mother."Nat..we..we..can stop talking about this if you want to," he said with concern."It's fine, I want to talk about it. You know, my Ex doesn't even know about it. I'm not comfortable telling it to people and the only person who knows the truth aside from my family, is my best friend who betrayed me," she related as she sniffed and wiped the tears off her eyes."I want to know, how did it happen? What led to it all?" He asked curiously."My mom," she said, raising her head to look at him."She was the beginning of my problems. She was an avid cheater despite the fact that my dad was a loving husband to her. Adrian had a twin brother whom we lost due to my mom's negligence," she related."I..I never knew he had a twin," he said."Yes, we were so little then. My mom would br
Waking up on the bamboo bed, she looked beside her and saw him sleeping peacefully. It was dawn already and she could see the sheets spread over their bodies. She recalled how he had sex with her last night and they ended up in the room for another round of it. Right now, she felt like he was taking advantage of her body and she was losing her guard. He opened his eyes slowly as he heard movements on the bed. He could see her sitting on the bed with her back facing him. He heaved a sigh and licked his lips as he recalled the pleasures of last night. "Hey," he called slowly. Without a word, she swung out of the bed and he sat up right immediately. "Nat," he called in surprise. She didn't respond and he could see the fury written all over her face. He watched her dress up slowly and then a knock came on the door. She sighed in frustration and walked over to the door. He could hear her conversing with his mother and then she walked out of the room. Walking into Mrs Eno's room, she
He gulped with his eyes staring at her, dumbfounded. "How can you say such a thing, Natasha? Why would I be seeing Alex?" He asked with a scoff. She sighed and looked away from him. "Why do I have a feeling that you're both hiding something from me, I mean, what's up with you and Adrian?" She asked, looking into his eyes anxiously. He heaved a sigh and placed a hand on her shoulder. "I've told you before, Alex and I are just friends. Adrian wouldn't want me to be around you because he knows I'm just a lothario," he said with a sexy smile flashing across his lips. Her nerves relaxed and she nodded slowly. "I hope that's the truth," she said and he smiled and moved an inch closer to her. "Are you jealous?" He asked, touching her chin. "Amos,you should stop this. I don't like it when you flirt with me," she said, feigning anger as she tried to push his hand away. He chuckled and dropped his hand from her chin. "I'll miss you," he said. She kept silent and gulped. She was going
"How dare you, Alex?" She thundered, her eyes blazing with fury as she stormed into the room with aggression. "What's the problem, babe?" Alex asked innocently as she made her baby lie on the bed. "Why didn't you tell me the truth about Amos? Why didn't you tell me he was the same guy, flirting with you?!" She asked with her furious eyes looking at her face deeply. Alex's eyes bulged and her mouth dropped open in dismay. "How did you find out?" She asked slowly. "Come off it, Alex! Father saw his pictures and he told me the truth!" She yelled. "Babe, stop yelling. You need to be calm," she pleaded calmly. "I can't be calm when you're already taking me for a fool!" She said angrily. "Nat, I'm not taking you for a fool! The truth is that he pleaded with me not to tell you about it," she explained, walking to the bed. "And you decided to be loyal to him, not minding my emotions?" She asked angrily. "Babe, be calm. Everything happened in the past and I'm sorry that I hid it from
"She asked me out, and it's pretty cool. As soon as we're done at the club tonight, I'm taking her home for a steamy Friday night," he said with a chuckle as he brushed his hair in front of the mirror.Jason's laughter could be heard from the phone which was lying on the shelf."Man, you've got to be careful not to fall into Adrian's traps again. What if she gets pregnant?" He asked from the phone."She's not going to get pregnant. She's a big babe and she knows how to play her cards very well," he said, buttoning his satin blue long sleeve top."Guy, I gotta run along, I don't want to keep the goddess waiting," he said."Alright, man, have a wonderful night," Jason said before the call ended.He quickly grabbed his black brogues shoes which he put on hastily. He looked at his golden wristwatch and it was 7:15pm."Damn, I'm late!" He cried as he stood up from the bed and grabbed his car keys.Stepping out of the car, he heaved a sigh of relief as he looked around the lit up building. H
The young man charged towards him and he ducked as he saw him throwing a punch over his face. He grabbed him by the waist and landed his back on the floor with a loud thud and they both began to scuffle with their fists."No! No!" She screamed, watching the men scuffling on the floor. With her whole strength, she tried to push Amos away from Kelvin's body which was lying on the floor.She began to cry as she hit his back vehemently. Just then, she saw a few men running towards them and she made a sigh of relief, recognizing them as Kelvin's friends.She rushed towards them, pleading for a helping hand and she ran behind them as they ran to the men who were still fighting on the floor.She could see the men hitting Amos who stood up from Kelvin's body and they helped raise Kelvin up from the floor."Are you alright?" She asked, touching Kelvin's bleeding nose.He began to pant heavily with his eyes looking at Amos who was standing beside the car, watching them."This fight is not over y
