Chapter 18: Deal.
Omotayo.
It's being more than twenty four hours already but Kendrick was still a no show. The only person I had seen so far was his lap dog, whose name I still didn't know even after I attempted to talk to him and even offered to pay him triple of whatever he was getting from Kendrick an offer he refused immediately and he even stopped talking to me at some point.
He was obviously getting sick and tired of me since I had made it my mission to frustrate him but giving up was not something I planned on doing anytime soon.
"Why hasn't Kendrick shown up? It's been more than twenty four hours already." I whine childishly, earning a frustrated growl from my him.
"Just wait patiently and shut the hell up already!" He raised his voice angrily but I persist over and over again, getting immense joy from seeing the stress lines on his forehead.
"I'm begging you miss, please

Adebayo. Anger and fear were the only emotions that clouded my thoughts at the moment. I tried thinking positively and pushing any negative thought out of my head but I could not help the negative scenarios that kept popping up in my head. The only thing I could think of at the moment was Tayo's safety. The thought of her being in any kind danger at all scared the shit out of me."Bayo let's calm down first before jumping into any conclusions. You know we're still not sure if she was kidnapped or if she ran off on her own for personal reasons." Arin utters foolishly and I could not help the look of disgust that formed on my face. Is he being serious right now? "Can you hear yourself bro? Are you really making any sense to yourself? Imagine your sister were in her shoes right now and then someone out there is still assuming she ran off, wouldn't you feel upset about it? You heard it yourself when I spoke wi
The Beauty of Love Chapter 20: Released.
Omotayo."Has Kingsley finally decided to grace me with his presence?" I ask irritatedly, wondering the bastard sleeps at night knowing there's someone out there suffering because of him. "It's been more than three days already and I'm still tied up here like a dog! Does he not know how uncomfortable it is to wear the same clothes and underwear for more than three days? He should have at the very least provided a change of clothes!" I yell nonstop at poor Gabriel who simply stares back at me with a blank expression on his face but I could definitely tell by his twitching eyes and lips that he was struggling to hold back a laugh."I can't believe you're actually in the mood to laugh right now. Are you not feeling bad for me? I stink!" I whine childishly and he laughs."I think he's finally going to show up today but I can't say for sure and I would have helped you get new clothes and

Omotayo Gabriel and I quickly exchanged phone numbers as soon as he arrived at Ikate. He had wanted to wait till he was sure I was safe but since I didn't want him to be seen by Ini, I refused and told him it was best to keep his identity a secret for the time being. I thanked him for the help so far and he handed me a few naira notes in case I would still have to take a public transport before my Ini showed up.I'm honestly doubting I would board a public bus looking this shabby, my hair looked way too bushy since I barely ever make my hair and usually wore wigs, my breath was definitely at its worse and I didn't think I had the confidence to talk to anyone asides Ini in this condition. My clothes were very dirty and a little part of my white pants trousers were already torn and although I didn't really have the courage to look at my face in the mirror properly but from the glimpse I got, I looked like a characte
The Beauty of Love Chapter 22: Bayo.
Omotayo The sickening stench of drugs, injections, blood and pretty much everything that makes up a hospital started to get to me as soon as I finished eating. I've never liked hospitals and the mere thought of having to spend one more night for supposed observation, irritated me like nothing else. Both Temi and my mom had left after I had repeatedly assured them that I was perfectly fine with staying by myself and though I tried sending Ini home to get proper rest, she quickly refused and since then she hasn't even moved an inch. Not that I mind though since she already assured me she'll only leave when Bayo comes around."So wait, you're telling me chief Onuh, that man you have a case with had something to do with your release?" She asks. "I can't say for sure but Gabriel, the guy with me had told me chief wasn't aware of his son's hasty decision and I don't know how he got to k
The Beauty of Love Chapter 23: Frozen Lips.
Omotayo. I still had not regained composure from what just happened. My entire body had suddenly stiffen including my lips and I'm pretty sure I just embarrassed myself one hundred percent."Oh, I'm so sorry for suprising you like that. I didn't mean to make you uncomfortable." He quickly apologises and I cover my face in shame and didn't even realise when I growled out loud. "Tayo, are you okay?" He immediately asks, making me wish the floor would just open up and swallow me whole."I froze! I can't believe actually froze! Why the hell did I freeze?" I yell out loud, temporarily forgetting Bayo was still staring at me but his loud laughter snaps me back to reality and realisation immediately dawn on me that I had said what I said out loud. "You're pretty cute." He compliments but I was too embarrassed to smile at the compliment."That wasn't cute, it was
The Beauty of Love Chapter 24: Lunch date.
Omotayo I arrived at work earlier than usual this morning because of how desperate I was to get back to my normal life. I haven't heard from Gabriel since the last time we spoke but I didn't call him first to avoid getting him in more trouble just in case he had already gotten into any trouble. I just hope that he was smart enough to avoid getting caught and was only taking his time before sending the video. I still hadn't spoken to Bayo about Gabriel's involvement or anything in regards to chief Onuh but we had already agreed to meet at his office next week and hopefully by then, Gabriel would have sent the video and it would be easier to explain everything to Bayo and his associates."Good morning Miss." Maria, my secretary greets as soon as she walks into my office holding a bunch of files with her. "Good Morning Maria. Are those files for me?" I ask almost immediately, wonderi
The Beauty of Love Chapter 25: Date Night I
Adebayo"Bro, are you sure you actually want to do this?" Bunmi asks for billionth time today and if he dares to ask me one more time, I might end up punching his teeth out."Bunmi, will you stop pestering me already? What exactly is your problem?" I ask irritatedly, feeling the itch to give him a tight slap."You already know what my biggest problem is bro. Listen carefully to me, I know you like this girl and I swear I have nothing against how you feel about her and I also don't have anything against her but what I don't want you to do is get involve with a woman that also has chief Onuh hovering over her. You already have enough beef with that man and fighting over a woman with your rival is definitely the straw that breaks that camel's back and at the end of the day, you might end up getting hurt." He blurts out worriedly and I sigh. "You should also listen to me Bunmi. I already told
The Beauty of Love Chapter 26: Date Night II
Omotayo "You want me to be your girlfriend?" I ask stupidly, wondering why I was still so surprised to hear him ask that. The truth is, part of me already expected this to happen but there's definitely a difference between daydreaming about it and finally hearing it yourself from the lips you've been dying to hear it from."Yes, I do but there's absolutely no pressure here Tayo. If you're not ready to give me an answer, I'll wait." He assured and I smiled."Then you won't mind if I give you an answer by the end of night?" I ask."I definitely won't mind just don't break my poor heart." He says with a sad pout, earning a light smack on his arm."We'll see about that. By the way, I have something I want to tell you but I don't know if this is the right time to bring it up but still I'm still going to tell you anyways cause I think you deserve to hear it from me to avoid any kind of misunde
