Dami hobbled into his room,ignoring the pain he felt in his ankle. He had sprained his ankle while he was walking up the stairs to his room. He pulled off his jacket and leapt on the bed.He laid his back on the bed,his head against the pillow,his gaze on the ceilings. He was tired despite the day being the most unproductive Monday in his life. Dami strongly regraded Monday as "ojo aje". He reckoned one could play around a lot on other days but not on Mondays. He closed his eyes pondering on how the next day would change his life. He tried his best to banish Aisha from his thoughts. He had to start learning how to live without her,to move on. For now, till everything he hadn't even planned work out.He opened his eyes at the thought of how confused he was, everything was happening so fast. He stared at the ceilings wishing the answers to the questions in his mind

"...I just need to make them stop suspecting me" Tiana said putting her rope on. Michelle sighed heavily,the gravity of her breathe was felt over the phone. "I still don't get why you're doing this over a man...I've never seen you go crazy over a man like this before..much less hurt someone" "I didn't hurt her,I simply told her the truth. She deserved to know that the man she's married to is a drug dealer" "You're forgetting that that's the same man you're in love with" Tiana paused at Michelle's words,the sound of her feet tap against the floor filled the room. She kept tapping it so hard hoping the sound would send a signal of relief down her spine. Michelle noticed the sudden silence over the phone. She could faintly hear the tap of Tiana's feet. "Tiana,you really could get in trouble being with this man and you know that. I really do not like this whole thin

"... And I don't think it was Tiana who told her everything" Dami could tell that was what Korede was driving at. Fear and worry was written on his dark eyes. Aisha was Korede’s best friend forever, of course he was worried about her. He was certain Korede cared less about Tiana for now. "I think she did !" Korede pointed out. " She's the only one who would benefit from this. I can't seem to think of any one else who would" "And since when did you start thinking?" Dami asked Korede calmly so his question wouldn't sound insulting. He wasn't in the mood to bicker with Korede. Korede stood speechless. Fury filled him. He could feel his hair pores twitching as a result of Dami's question. This was a side of Dami he wouldn't dare question or infuriate. Dami wished Korede would leave him alone. He needed a moment of solitude.But the young man was sti

Life didn't make any sense, Dami thought as he stared deep into the empty road. He turned to see his siblings sleep soundly. A strong wind came causing Dami to close his eyes defensively.He pulled the blanket he found in the bin over his siblings to keep them warmer. The one they had been using wasn't enough to protect them from the wind.He sat up to lay his back against the wall as the cold moved down his spine. He turned to look at the carton his siblings slept on. He wished he could enjoy the warmth of it.Instead he moved his eyes away from them to stare at the rest of the beggers that were sleeping under the bridge. Most of them sleeping on the bare floor like he was,the rest of them on carton or clothes. Memories of when he used to see little kids beg on the streets when he and his mother went to the market flashed in his mind. He never thought he'd become one of them.It had been two ye

Aisha woke up the next morning with an excruciating headache. Lifting her head from the pillow it’s veins were being pulled by a group of diabolical forces. She closed her eyes as the sunlight that penetrated the window reflected on it. Resiliently,she rose up from the bed to look for drugs that would ease the pain she felt in her head. Her unconscious self found it’s way to the door of the room. When Aisha got to the parlour,she realized she wasn't in her house. She wasn't in Dami's house. She fell to the floor as images of what happened the previous night flooded her mind. She was fully awake now. She pressed her hand against her chest as she began to cry. She wished it was all a nightmare but it felt too real to be one. A gentle pat fell on her back, she jerked and turned to see it was Mutiat. "Don't touch me" Aisha moved away from Mutiat. "Aisha", Mutiat sighed. She wished Aisha could rethink all this and

Aisha wasn't so comfortable sitting alone with Tiana. But since Dami had to leave,she had no choice but to sit a few minutes with her. Tiana on the hand,was so much focused on her phone,she didn't say a word. After a while, Aisha left the table. She left for Mutiat's and Ajoke's. "You're back?" Ajoke asked astonishingly. "Yes" Aisha sat next to Mutiat,she was glad the seat was still empty. "Dami and his friends left already...went to attend to some stuff.I think it's going to take a while" "Oh okay" Mutiat said. "And his secretary?" Ajoke asked apathetically. Aisha raised her eyebrows. She was irritated with what Ajoke asked her. She didn't retort,maybe the five years ago Aisha would have. Ajoke was just too good with words to bicker with. She'd prevail without effort. Instead Aisha poured wine from the bottle on the table into a glass and s

Tiana and Korede's POV *********************** Tiana didn't like the idea of her gown being long but seeing the look on Korede's face she knew she was looking more beautiful than she'd seen herself in the mirror. She walked towards his car,her heels making a comforting sound in her ears. "Good morning". She greeted but no reply. Korede opened the door of his car for her,then proceeded to the driver's seat. He turned on the ignition of his car and zoomed off. Tiana was quite offended because Korede didn't reply when she greeted him. If he knew he wasn't going to talk to her then why did he come to pick her up. She could have just told Dami that she was going to take public bus. She could have just gone to the party herself,ugh!!!. Tiana snorted. After five minutes drive, Korede stopped the car by the side of the road. Tiana didn't say a word or pay attention to him,she was on her

Dami strode to where Aisha was standing,she was cutting theclothes she wanted to sew. He whispered into her ears "Aisha can I see you for a moment please?"Silence filled the room as the workers stopped what they were doing to stare at the both of them. Aisha continued with what she was doing as Dami kept whispering into her ears.All of a sudden she hit the scissors in her hand on the table. The sudden thud Dami jerk, everyone in the room had their eyes open in astonishment . Aisha pushed him aside a bit,then went outside of the room."Aisha, we've never brought any of our discord to work. You didn't need to do what you did out there..." He broke off as Aisha placed her two hands on his chest to push him away . But she didn't succeed cause he was too strong. There was no way for her leave,he had pulled her to a corner,she was surrounded with two walls,an edge and him. For a minute she felt protected even though she had noticed

She came to the office earlier with Korede? Oh my God did she see us? Did Korede tell her? Tiana began breathing heavily. Korede heard the sound of her breath,then looked behind his shoulders to see her."They were inside his office earlier this morning" Korede answered the question for Dami. "Both of them were inside...". Korede got interrupted by the sound of Tiana's heel as she quickened to stand next to him.Dami tucked his hands in his pocket glaring at Korede to hear what he had to say. He knew Korede had seen them earlier while he was having sex with Tiana. It was high time Korede knew about his affair with Tiana. But he didn't know what that his wife was at the company at that time. He could tell his wife didn't see them, Korede didn't tell her anything either. Korede wasn't that much of a nincompoop or careless."They were having a meeting . I wanted us to have breakfast together that was why I lied that they we
