Meet the family
“You do know that you are not supposed to outshine the celebrants.” I teased Stella as she entered my car. Her lace material fitted her shape to perfection and at the same time it wasn’t too much. Her face had minimal make up but still highlighted her soft features, I already felt proud that she was going to be on my arm today.
“Shut up” She turned her head away from me embarrassed.
“Honestly though, I think my mother will not be too angry since you will be on the arm of her son. You are beautiful.”
“Thank you, you are not so bad yourself. Your Abgada look nice.” Stella complimented me too

MY PERFECT MATCH Lines drawn
I knew my place with Kola was not solid enough to be making mouth at Tomi who has been his best friend for years but I was pissed, that girl had hurt Kola, granted before I met him but she still had to act like she is the most important person in his life. She might be but I was betting on me being special enough to Kola for him to tolerate me and he did. That alone gave me joy, I was ignored by the other ladies in the party, Tomi even had the audacity to introduce Cynthia, Kola ex girl friend to me and I had to bite my lips as I watched as Cynthia tried to flirt with Kola. The guy was just acting dense and as usual, it was endearing to me but I was tired of watching a lady fling herself at my boyfriend while the girl who introduces herself as Kola best friend to others was actively trying to make me look like a fool.
MY PERFECT MATCH Mr. Romantic
I was a little bit upset after Tomi words even if I didn’t let her see it and I acted way more bitchy to Kola than usual so that was why the next day, I took a cab to Kola’s house after church, he had given me his key a while ago so I could let myself in, I was in the middle of cooking when Kola opened his door and saw me.“Hmm” he folded his hand across his chest as he waited for my explanation.“The food is almost ready. I wanted to cook for you.” I said foregoing the apology which I should have started with.“Is it poisoned?” Kola asked and when I glared at him he continued. “Believe me that is expected because with the way you were acti
MY PERFECT MATCH Sign of trouble
It was almost another weekend when I found something troubling, my day started out normal with me exchanging insults with Jess and greeting the boss when he dropped in to say hi, he has been doing that since on Monday but today was less flirty than other times maybe because I finally told Kola yesterday how Kevin actions was making me feel. I wouldn’t put it pass Kola to call Kevin and ask Kevin to take good care of me since I am now his girlfriend, all to show Kevin that I am off the market.My day was still normal then, even after lunch which I had with another intern, the only one whom I warmed up to maybe because I knew he was just too intelligent and it would be a waste if I don’t form a connection to with him. We have been hanging out for lunch breaks now while Kola will pick me up after closing, take me to dinner and then drop me off at home
MY PERFECT MATCH Trouble
When my secretary called, saying Tomi was waiting for me in outside my office. I was dumbfounded, what was she doing here? My first reaction was to smile and welcome her in, my second was to remember that even though my feelings for this girl was still there, nothing would ever happen between us and my girlfriend was a big reason why I shouldn’t entertain any thoughts about Tomi that was not strictly in the friends zone.“Send her in.” I finally said then leaned back into my seat and waited for Tomi to enter my office.“It took you your sweet time to answer me.” Tomi grumbled as she dropped into a chair opposite mine.“Why have a seat.” I said sarcasti
MY PERFECT MATCH Sides to choose.
I don’t want to be here at this mixer but I didn’t have a choice. If I had chosen not to go, I would have given Tomi the chance to talk more trash than what she was already spewing out. And that is the last thing I wanted to do. That girl was dangerous and I needed to keep my eyes on her, she warned me that she will change Kola’s mind about me, I thought she was joking but apparently not, I thought that I didn’t have any reason to be bothered by her but less than a month after she told me to enjoy Kola while he was mine, she was back in his life like she never left. They reconciled on Wednesday, Saturday they were already as thick as thieves together.I stood beside Femi as I watched his girlfriend drag Kola around in the guise of introducing him around and filling him in on things he had missed during his stint at staying clear from everybody. “I am sorry for the way Tomi acted
MY PERFECT MATCH Three is a crowd.
This wasn’t fair, I knew this wasn’t fair but it seems like Kola didn’t know, whatever he thought he was just doing with Tomi as ‘friends’ was hurting me. Still I didn’t utter a single word. Why will I? After all he told me they were just friends nothing else, I couldn’t show my hand more by acting jealous especially after I had asked him those questions. That would just show him that he has complete control over me, that I was in love with him and that is something which I would never show him.“Hey best friend?” Tomi sang as she quickly sat down on I and Kola table in her restaurant, this time she came with a friend. “Hello Stella.” She greeted with her jovial expression still on her face and why wouldn’t she be jovial, after all she had just succeeded in ruining another me and Kola alone time, something that was already hard enough for a CEO and an Intern. Th
MY PERFECT MATCH Threats
I was in Kola kitchen cooking when I received the first call. The gas was on, soft music was playing on the stereo which was connected to my phone Bluetooth, I was in comfy clothes which usually means one of Kola oversized t-shirts that look big on him and practically drowns me, I was dancing along to the song in a beat that made no sense, something I wouldn’t have done if Kola was present, as far as he is concerned, me and the music is one so I never go off beat… well, a girl has to keep some secrets.The music was suddenly cut off, then the automated female voice called out a number slowly, I quickly cleaned my hands as I went to pick my call.“Hello”“Good eve
MY PERFECT MATCH Scared
I was still upset at Stella, I mean why would she just snap at Tomi that way, I get that I might be spending a lot of time around Tomi and her friends these days but it was what I did then and I told her she could trust me, it’s not like I am going to cheat on her with any of Tomi’s friends. I would never to that to her.Liar, you would totally cheat on her, not with Tomi friends but Tomi herself, in fact if you are honest with yourself, you are already cheating on Stella. My mind whispered to me but I shoved the words out of my head, the thoughts were wrong, I was not cheating on Stella, I am just spending time with my best friend. I rubbed my hands across my face in frustration as I battle with myself, should I call her or not. If I call her, I will give her the impression that I am apologizing for a wrong I didn’t commit and that she has the upper hand, if I don’t call and she does, it is basically Stella apology on a golden platter.
