HARMONY'S POV“Wow. The outing was really great. I can see that. A new hair? Fits you.” Vivian said as we got in. I had branched the salon to make a new hair style for my movie premier, it was a short, red cap. Tracy was super excited and was jumping up and down. “Aunt V, I just saw my daddy.” She said.“Oh, I’m sure he brought you lots of stuffs, didn’t he?” Vivian asked and Tracy nodded. The maid came over to collect the bunch of stuffs I had in my hands from me while I collapsed against the settee. I was so tired. I kept looking at my daughter and friend as they talked excitedly together. Michael had brought our daughter expensive stuffs which she was showing to Vivian. They soon walked out of sight while I lay on the couch.As I was about closing my eyes, my phone vibrated, luckily, it was in my hand, so I just put the phone to my ears.“Hey babe. What’s up?”I sighed, it was Michael. “I’m good.”“Are my

“She only said one drop on the tongue Ichabod!” Adams shouted but Ichabod ignored him and went ahead to put the few drops.“I am going to be around a woman that I have loved all my life and whom I thought I actually killed in my dream. Pardon me but a drop won’t cover it.” He said before closing the lid on the bottle while hiding it away into the inner pocket of his suit.“Are you ready?” Adams asked, carrying his suitcase which contained just about four pieces of clothes which they had managed to get.“Yea but I still don’t understand how to go about this phone-thing.”Ichabod explained, holding the new phone upside down.“Just make sure you read the manual. Come on, let’s go. You are driving. You need to start getting used to this. We will collect the license on the way.”“Yea, I think driving is fun actually, it’s super cool, I don’t mind.” Ichabod said, following Adams out.**She checked the time for the hundredth

The whole place was filled to the brim as the movie, ‘altar ego’ was being shown. Harmony sat next to her daughter who was beside Vivian. Next to Vivian was the director and other cast of the movie.Ichabod stood in a corner, standing where he could see Harmony. She was looking extraordinary and he was finding it difficult to believe that this lady wasn’t the same woman that he had married. What kind of trick was this? Still he tried to maintain his cool, he needed to plan how to get close to this woman, he needed to find a way to get close to her heart...again before the full moon.He looked at his watch momentarily and then for some reason, he decided to focus on the movie. He couldn’t remember the title but there was something that drew him to it. He kept seeing a man fighting himself for no reason and was busy talking to himself in a foreign language mixed with the English but he couldn’t understand. Sometimes the audience would laugh out loud and ot

Harmony didn’t quite understand what he meant by saying he believed in double personalities more than most people but she took the time to explain the story line to him while they sat together. She made sure he was sitting right next to her while she sat between him and her daughter who sat next to Vivian.Altar Ego was about a man who would never succumb to his other good side and enjoyed doing evil all the time. However, his good side showed up the day he saw a beautiful girl which Harmony played and then he had to battle with his inner evil and his good side.All through the movie, Harmony couldn’t stop looking at Ichabod, he seemed pretty immersed in the movie even though he never really understood most of what was being said apart from when correct English language is spoken, still it was easy for Harmony to explain to him. Ichabod was quiet all through. Part of him could relate with the Akeem or whatever the name was. He still couldn’t understand how Harmony

11:35 PM“Just go in and sleep damn it!”Ichabod cursed under his breath in his new room. He could still hear her pacing up and down as she walked from one room to the other room. He could feel the way she breathed, ‘I love you’ into her daughter’s ears while she tucked her into her bed. Even though it was quite far from his room, Ichabod could feel every movement...every whisper. His transition time was getting closer and he couldn’t control himself that much.The bottle was in his hand and he thought of putting more drops into his tongue...“You imbecile! That will be cheating! I will kill you if you try that nonsense!” He snarled to himself in Odin’s voice.He snapped out of it with a deep grunt....Please Harmony....just go to sleep....**Harmony left Tracy’s bed and was walking out when she heard Tracy’s voice.“Mum, please make daddy come to my Halloween party. I don’t want

In a swift movement, he was in her room. The bed lamp was on, it was a faint red lamp and for a normal human eye, you wouldn’t be able to see much but for a vampire, even in the dark, everything is bright. He watched as she lay peacefully in her bed. Her breath was in a slow movement and her body was covered in her white blanket. Her hair was tucked in a blue satin. She looked as fresh as morning dew in her sleeping state.“Wow! That is one beautiful piece of cake.” Odin said to himself and was immediately standing beside her, so close to her that he brought out his hand and with his index finger, he trailed the side of her cheek down to her jaw line...He could feel Ichabod’s resistance within him so he chuckled to himself...“Calm down idiot. You know that the night belongs to me. Even though you tried everything to stop me from coming out in the day, you can’t stop me from coming out in the night. That will mean getting rid of me forever and that

Odin followed as the little human girl took her to the balcony of the house. There was no light except the reflection of the moonlight. There were two seats as well and she sat on one. Odin grunted, what kind of foolishness was this? So would Ichabod actually turn him into a baby sitter in this night? He thought of using his power on the little girl to send her to sleep immediately but...“I’m so sad Ichabod.” The girl whimpered and this stopped him from doing what he wanted to do.“If you are sad, talk to your mother not me.” He murmured. “My mum doesn’t like my dad.” She said, more like talking to herself. “If he still doesn’t show up at the Halloween party, I am going to be laughed at again. I can’t ask my mum to dress up like my dad again. It’s embarrassing.” She cried. “For days I couldn’t even do anything in class without being laughed at. I hate this stupid Halloween.”Odin was barely listening to her, instead, he was thinking of how he would l

The light that came on disrupted his sleep and he opened his sleepy eyes, forgetting where he was until he saw Harmony looking at him in shock.“What are you doing Ichabod?”Ichabod stood up immediately and trying not to show how embarrassed he was.“You are really taking your job seriously. First, the toilet thing and now, you are baby-sitting my daughter. You shouldn’t. Seriously.” Harmony said, walking to where he daughter lay.“Forgive me. I must have slept off.” He mumbled the words together.Harmony said nothing but instead proceeded to wake her daughter up. Meanwhile Ichabod was about taking his leave when Harmony said. “Is that my tab?”He turned around and realized he had left the tab on the floor. It must have dropped when he slept off....when Odin slept off. Wait, Odin slept off?“What is my tab doing beside you Ichabod?” Harmony demanded, looking a bit displeased.Ichabod was tongue-tied. “Well, I er...”

Well, Ichabod had been getting ready for this question. “Well, I’m from here and there.” He replied with a chuckle but Harmony only scoffed. “Your CV says you are from Baltimore, but I’m just curious, why Nigeria? Why body guard?”He smiled. “Well, I will answer you if you answer me this.” He said.“What?” She asked, giving him that sweet smile that made him fall in love with her centuries ago.“Why did you hire me?”**Harmony was surprised when he asked that. That was really a serious question. “Well, I...I don’t know. There was something about you that drew me to you...” she said, trying not to sound awkward. “You have this mystery surrounding you and I got intrigued.”“Well, let’s say that was why I came to Nigeria, to find you....and to protect you...”Harmony knew he was probably joking about this and wasn’t serious about saying all these. Maybe he was toying with her but the sincerity in his

“Yea. I just remembered I found something in my room when I woke up this morning, I don’t know how it got there. Did you come to my room last night? Is this yours?”He swallowed hard, unable to concentrate on his driving...“Idiot, just tell her a lie!” Odin snarled in his head.“Urm, yea, Ah...” He inhaled deeply, lying was not his thing really. While he stuttered, Harmony’s phone rang. Thank Goodness! He couldn’t believe how sweaty he was within how many minutes.“You are a so dumb! Seriously! You are her bodyguard! You could say you went to her room to check up on her when you heard noises in the room. Then you forgot it there. Ish! Do I need to do everything for you?”“Shut up Odin! It was your clumsiness that caused it in the first place!”“Yea? Bite me?”“Um, excuse me, Ichabod, are you talking to someone?” Harmony asked, looking at him in the mirror from the back seat.Odin chuckled, “caught i
