"Oh my God!" Chisom exclaimed, "Mr admirer is gay?" She questioned another shock evident on her face.
"I don't think so. Besides, you shouldn't believe everything the internet says sometimes they can lie because I saw the way Ryan was looking at Chimamanda. It wasn't ordinary" Chidinma defended.
"Okay, no problem, he might not be gay" Chisom said. Besides, he has a masters in political science just like you, why don't you give him a chance for the sake of the same spirit you bookworms share? Chisom pleaded.
Chimamanda rolled her eyes in disgust "I am not interested" she replied bluntly.
"Come on, little sis, Chidinma whined Ryan feels something for you, you have seen the bouquet with cute messages he sends here, and I know your desk has a share too. I've seen you turn down his numerous dates, and he still comes back to ask. Give him a trail na." Chidinma pleaded.
Chimamanda lets out a tired sigh, she looks at both of her sisters and holds their hands
" You both know, I am a coquette, and I don't settle for guys, Have you forgotten Jide or Tope, or that Idiot Dozie, or Fred, or is it short Francis, or the last bugger and stalker Kola? You name them, I play and dump guys I don't keep them" Chimamanda said defending why she shouldn't listen to their pleas.
"That's why you need Ryan in your life to change Sis" Chidinma pressed on.
Chimamanda chuckled and said "wow so he is now Jesus Christ who can change my life now, right? she turned and looked at Chidinma who shrugged. "besides you would have been a good lawyer. Why did you have to waste your time in mass communication?" Chimamanda asked sarcastically.
Chisom giggled, she was acting as a watch dog. "Don't be sarcastic Chimamanda and you know I hate to argue, I wouldn't have survived with a professional course like law and don't even think of deviating from going out with Ryan.
" Alright, let's place a bet"Chidinma suggested. "Cool, bring it on" Chimamanda replied.
"Good, if you go on one date with Ryan, I'll make you my cover for my next fashion magazine, you'll be my fashion icon, your interviews will feature and any other thing you want me to add".
"cool, let's do it. Besides, it's just one date, even though I really want to go out with him" Chimamanda thought to herself.
Chidinma's fashion magazine is one of the most trending fashion magazines in Nigeria, Africa, U.S.A, the UK and Canada, so it was a big offer.
"I'm in, just a date tho" Chimamanda rolled her eyes reluctantly like she wasn't so interested.
" You've made a good decision, you won't regret it, ” Chidinma said almost immediately.
"Hurray" Chisom screamed at the top of her lungs excitedly like a little girl that was handed sweets.
"I'll get to be the photographer as always, right, Big sis"? Chisom asked Chidinma.
"" Definitely " Chidinma winked at Chisom.
The girls went back to their dress hunting after so many changes, Chidinma settled on a Silver off-the-shoulder dress with a low neck line exposing her boobs a little and a slit that stopped mid thigh.
"Glow sister and bring a boyfriend back home" Chimamanda teased. Chisom giggled.
"I pray so, I'm already tired of being single, I need my prince charming" Chidinma whined.
Chidinma checked the time, it was still 2pm so they all went downstairs for lunch. she was meant to start preparing for the show by 5:30pm since it was slated for 7:00pm. They ate their lunch of spaghetti and meatballs with orange juice.
After lunch they crawled back to Chidinma's room to gist and play games, they took pictures and posted them on their different social media platforms. Once it was 5:30pm Chidinma went to the bathroom to take her bath. She dressed up in her dress while Chimamanda did her make-up.
She gave her a perfect brow with an arch contouring her face perfectly . She applied black and silver eye shadows and finished it with a sexy car eyes effect with the eye liner, lined her lips perfectly and applied a shiny lipgloss. Chidinma looked at the mirror and wore a very big smile on her lips, she stood up and hugged Chimamanda.
"Thanks, sis, you always enhance my beautiful face in a professional way" Chidinma beamed with smiles.
"You are welcome, Sis" Replied Chimamanda.
"Now sit and give me a sexy pose" Chisom said cutting them short from their moment.
Chidinma sat down and took pictures posing in a sexy manner, she also took some while standing after she wore a customized heel designed by their mother with a clutch purse.
She kissed each of her sisters goodbye after the picture seesion and left with their mum who was already set to go in a Toyota Prado Jeep.
The day for Chimamanda's date with Ryan came quickly. She was so nervous because she hadn't really gone out with a guy she was so attracted to. She couldn't concentrate well at work as she lost concentration on many occasions and her subordinates were looking at her with worry. They dare not ask her any questions relating to her personal life, or they will be fired by her and replaced immediately. Chimamanda couldn't take it any longer, so she took a sick leave and went home early. She hated looking soft or vunerable to people and it pisses her off when someone tries to pity her. She cursed herself for being so nervous and leaving work early. "It's just a date Chimamanda and Ryan, is like every normal guy you go on a date with, everything is going to end tonight after a make-out session. Stop being a weak girl, be a strong woman, you can do it". She chided herself on her way home from work.
Ryan looked great in his white body con Tee and his slightly ripped denim with a white sneakers to match, he was exceptionally handsome. Chimamanda couldn't help but admire the handsome creature before her although she was still feeling nervous and shy but she brushed it off. "Good evening mi lady" Ryan says as he took Chimamanda's hands into his and kissed it. "You look ravishing and Elegant Darling" Chimamanda blush Scarlett as he complimented her. She muttered a thanks "you don't look bad yourself" she added, "you know he looks more than what you just told him" her subconscious queried her. She wanted to say more to him but she didn't want to sound cheesy or awkward. She quickly tells her sisters good bye and entered the Range Rover sport Car door that was opened for her to enter by Ryan. "Um I was thinking if we could go to my house" Ryan said nervously, scratching the back of his head waiting anxiously for her to say something, he searched her eyes expecting an answer Chimam
"Princess, take care of business while I'm away, take every decision on my behalf and if you find it difficult you can always call me" Chief uche instructed. "Sure thing Dad, I'll do just that, have fun with mummy" Chimamanda replied. Chief and Mrs. Uche Odenigbo were travelling, they usually go on Vacations and tour and this time they will be gone for a week and as usual Chimamanda takes over Odenigbo group while Chidinma takes over her mum's company. Chief Odenigbo turned to his eldest child, "Chidinma take care of your sisters and protect them like a mother hen will protect her chicks, you know you are the next Alpha of the Uche Odenigbo's park after me right?" He asked grinning. "Yes Dad, I know and I'll protect them" "Chisom you know i hate to leave you behind but I need to catch fun with my wife, I promise I'll get something specially for you on my way back" Chisom's face lit up with excitement as she heard what her father said "Yes Dad, please do I'll love it. The girl
"Let me talk to Dad alone." Can you guys go to Mom please? " Chimamanda begged. Chidinma nodded and held onto Chisom, leading her to their mother's hospital room. "I'll be right back and keep an eye on my uncle for me," she whispered to Ryan. He nodded in affirmation. Chimamanda walked into her father's room. The room was almost silent apart from the noise the ventilating machine and monitor made to show its capacity and usefulness. The room was spacious. A few brown-coloured couches and a table in between were placed for visitors. A window was close to the hospital bed, but the brown curtains were not drawn. The only sources of ventilation in the room were an indoor air conditioner, which was reduced to the lowest unit, and an air purifier placed above the head of the bed. She walked across to his bedside. He looked pale. Tears flowed down her eyes as she saw her father's state, but she cleaned it immediately. She didn't want to be in a vulnerable state in front of her father.
One week had passed since the accident that placed Chief Uche Odenigbo and his wife in a state of coma. Chimamanda and her sisters have been restless. All their efforts to get the people behind the accident proved abortive. The family of Chuka, Chief Uche's driver who died in the accident, were consoled and settled appropriately by the Odenigbo group. The experts were brought in to check the car if it indeed had a break issue according to what the eye witnesses testified to, but the experts confirmed it was negative.According to them, they stated that someone wanted Chief Uche and his wife dead because the brakes of the car were tampered with, which resulted in the accident. The people who tampered with the brake were smart. They knew the angles where the CCTV was installed and hid well without the CCTV capturing them while tampering with the brake.The security men at the Odenigbo's Mansion were changed; more CCTV cameras were installed at strategic positions in every direction
"Will you accept this poor boy that is begging to be your boyfriend?"Chimamanda was standing in shock, never did she expect this to happen soon.She was so shocked to say anything she looked like someone who was struck by thunder and lightning bolt."So this playgirl is going to be in a serious relationship" her mind kept screaming.She looked at Ryan, the man she was willing to commit to. It was not going to be easy on her end but she couldn't say anything less than yes to this handsome man looking intently at her piercing her soul with his beautiful gaze."Yes Ryan, I'm going to be your girlfriend" she finally says.Ryan hugged her in ecstasy, he was joyous and it was evident like pregnancy.He took her hand, kissing it in the process "Thank you"Chimamanda nodded "It almost sounded like a marriage proposal tho" she joked."Then I guess I gave to make more impressions when I will ask you to be my wife" Ryan replied."Let's go already it's late, I'm sure chidinma will skin me alive

There was a special club for the high class in the social ladder, they were granted a V.I.P pass due to the fact that they are their father's daughters. They had their own clubs littered around the city, but Chimamanda refused to go there because she wasn't ready for their eye service since they already know her as the boss, and a part of her past still drags her to the same club everytime. The music coming from the large speakers filled their ear drums as they walked into the club. Already excited by the feeling, she noticed some eyes on her.

"Yes, Ma'am" the bartender replied looking at her with a bright smile. She didn't seem to care as she looked around the club for any hot guy. The Bartender passes the drink to her, Larvish is a trade mark
