Alex
She exhaled deeply, then allowed her eyes to meet mine. So I could see the sadness in them.
"If I tell you I don't, then I would be one terrible liar." She chuckle. But I could tell it was filled with unhappiness.
I looked away and stare out the window to the beach.
"I do miss home very much," Her lips curved upward. "I so much miss the life I uses to live before now. I lived without fear. Had no fear in the world. I lived like a bird; free to fly away whenever it wanted, and returned home whenever it felt like." She was trying to sound strong but I knew she was despondent, unhappy about everything. "Sometimes I wonder how my life would've been if it wasn't for this situation-" Exactly what I had thought a couple of times. "-Would I still be working at Daily Planet? Would I still visit my G

MiaNo wonder girls were easily attracted towards him. It was like he swallowed a magnet, which magnetized the female population towards him, wherever he went. They practically swoon at the sight of him. Even married women.I hated Tunde Ibrahim with every single pore in me, but if he wasn't after my life, I wouldn't have met Alex. Wouldn't have been riding in his car with him, wouldn't have been attracted to him. I was starting to cherish every moment we spent together, even though they weren't romantic, except he wanted to kiss me. Because I obviously liked him. Liked everything about him. I was so used to his presence, that I always missed him when he wasn't close to me. I always wanted him to be next to me. I felt protected, felt in a way woman. And felt needed. Because he was the first guy that I was starting to get attracted to. And he was in his in way as well.

BoluIt was insane how some notorious criminal escaped jail and was suddenly out taking down the lives of the innocent, with his fellow goons. It was getting worst on a daily basis, that people were even scared to visit public places; banks, shopping malls, and the rest. Because there was enough bloodshed caused by these men.They robbed, stole, and made sure they killed people.This was being carried over by the headlines, all over Nigeria.And what stunned the hell out of me, was that the head of these men, was after Charles and Ruby.Flashback.“Hello, Bolu. Can I bring Ruby over to your place? I know today is your day off, so I was wondering if she could spend sometime with you.” It was Charles who had called.

Bolu“Really sorry for the inconvenience.” Charles begged.While I nodded and let everyone into the house, then closed the door shut behind me.I was wondering what had gone wrong, because it looked like something terrible had. Charles had stains all over his shirt like that of a vomit. His mom looked as confused as I am. While Max had run his hand over his balding head, for a couple of times. It looked like he was really frustrated and wanted to shit on his pants. Even Ruby was staring out the window as if waiting for some ghost to show up.What the hell was really going on?Someone cleared his throat and it adverted me away from my curiously disturbed thought.When I looked at the person, it was Charles. And no one had taken a seat in my sitting room. They were all standing on their full height. That was when it slammed through my senses t

BoluI couldn’t swallow the chewed bread inside my mouth. Couldn’t come up with words to say because many thoughts were racing through my mind, causing my heart to go haywire. And rendering the hair on single pore of my body to stand up.Charles came at my side, on seeing the expression on my face. He made to take hold my hand into his, but I was quick in snatching it away. The still had a lot of talking to do.He bowed his head, but didn’t move away from my side.“Since Mia was being rescued by Alex on that day, and one of his men was arrested, and the other killed by Alex, which I believe you know. Tunde Ibrahim sent his more than ten of his men to kill Charles and Ruby at the grocery store today. Which adds a stamp to the fact that me, my family, Charles, his mom and Ruby aren’t safe anymore.” Max concluded, looking so scared and dejected suddenly.And for the upteenth time, my mouth

BoluAfter they left, I felt restless althrough. Couldn’t stay at home anymore, so I decided to go see my friend’s at Jordan’s house. So my disturbed thoughts wouldn’t overwhelm and consume me.While driving my car, I kept having this feeling that those men were going to come for me as well. Maybe they had traced Charles to my house, and then decided to come harm me on the later.“There's no way I am going to put your life at risk. I would be damned if something terrible happens to you. Us staying here would only endanger your life. Even as we've come here to spend an hour, with me and Max trying to figure out a place for us to head with our families, doesn't make you safe. Because we're in your house. And they could trace us and come here.” He had explained, while putting his hands on my shoulders.If he know that him coming with his family and friends would put your life at risk, why then did h

“Why are you even outside?” I looked away from her, then asked. I was glad on the inside that being here was taking my mind off Charles and his family. Even Alex and Mia together. It was insane how I haven’t thought about them today. Seeing how he had acted with her that day at the hospital, had hurt so much. The way he had gave all of his attention to her unconscious state, how he had brushed a strand of hair away from her face, it was just too much for me to bear. And now, I was quite glad I wasn’t dwelling in thoughts of Alex having a thing for Mia.“Don’t try to change the topic.” She warned, jerking a finger at me. “But I came out for the smoke. Jord and her husband are having a heated argument, so I chose to leave to give them privacy. Well not really a fight, it’s Jordan turning the house upside down and crashing things because she’s mad.” She explained, taking a drag of her cigarette

BoluPresent."She's good to go.""No more seizures?""I uh, can't guarantee you that, Miss Afolabi.One doesn't get completely free from seizures. That's why the surgery that was carried out is call temporal lobe surgery. The seizures come back after years. But most cases, they don't. So let's hope there'd be no more seizures." He explained with a straight face. "The temporal lobectomy lowers the number of seizures one has, make them less severe or even stop them from happening.""Thank you, Dr Sylvester." I smiled and stood up from my chair, stretching my hand towards him for a handshake. And he stood up, took my hand in his, and caressed it. Giving me this flirty look. I shook my head mentally because men would always be men.&nbs
