Previously...Ama. "Oh she's at the backyard pounding fufu." He said. "Sis I'm so happy to see you. Hope you brought something for me sha." he said trying to peek into my handbag as he always did. "Haha, yes I did. You know I don't miss." I bragged and he grinned from ear to ear, collecting my luggage from me. "Let's go and greet mommy before she says I'm disrespectful." I said and we made our way through the tiny corridors to the backyard while bantering and laughing. "Ikemefuna onyeee (Ikemefuna who was that)" I heard my mother's voice ring out from the back yard where she was busy making dinner. We got there just in time to answer her. I gave a small smile "hi mom". She raised her head up at the sound of my voice. "Amarachi nwam ooo(Amarachi my child)." She cried out and stood up with joy and came towards me

Previously...Ama. A knock on my door had me wiping my face profusely "Sis?" My brother said and opened the door. I sniffled "thank God you're here. Please pack your things. We are leaving this evening. I have already booked our flight." I said while dumping my things into my box. "Sis you need to slow down. What exactly is the problem. Chike is nice. At least he's been nice to us. I didn't realize you knew him." My brother said and came closer. "Pack your things Ikem." I said without looking at him. "Are you crying?" He said and I heard his footsteps coming closer. "Sis" he said and put his hand across my shoulder. "Who is that guy really?" My brother asked. "He's nobody.. just pack your things" I said and sniffled. "Sis, don't hide it from me." He said and I broke down. He pulled me to hi

Previously... Ama. "You that would easily look like my husband or elder brother." I said and picked my phone. No missed calls or messages from Femi today. It had been dead silent on his end since the day he saved me from my crazy ex. It was what I wanted but now I felt some type of way by the silence. "It's suffer-head that cause it" my brother responded to me but I was too engrossed in checking all my messages. The door bell rang immediately he spoke and given that Radike was off at God knew where, I had to answer the door. "I'll get it." I said and went to answer the door. I heard my brother following behind me and I groaned. What a pest. My mistake when I got to the door was not checking who it was before answering. I opened the door to see Femi leaning against the wall. He looked tired and beaten up. My heart started racing at the sight of him. He still l

Previously… Ama. "So I sat him down and talked about it and the only thing he could do was to use it to blackmail me. Saying I must fuck a girl tonight before he stops sleeping with Radike. Crazy motherf*cker." My mouth was on the beach sand at his words. Kola had to be a sick twisted fellow. "What the hell?" I almost whispered. Kola was really deranged at this point. "I was livid. And you know the funny part, he actually brought the damn chick" Femi continued. "Oh my God!! No way" I exclaimed. "Apparently Kola made a way. And thats not the worst part." He said. What could be worse that that. "Wait.. the only thing you would say that could be worse that that would be that you actually slept with her." I said. There was a pang in my chest while saying those words, secretly wishing that that was not the case. "Go

Previously… Ama. I opened my eyes to a bright light. I didn’t know how I got home or to my bed. The memories from last night started rushing back to me. Femi and I kissed. I finally accepted his advances but only to some extent. I must have slept off in his car. “Good morning sis” I heard and sharply turned to see my stupid brother sitting in a chair near the door to my room. “Marty what the hell.” I said sitting up holding my chest because of the shock I felt from his actions. “Are you okay?” He asked looking concerned. “I’m fine Marty. Don’t you every creep up on me like that again so you understand?” I warned him with a stern voice. “Yeah.” He said still looking at me like he was swallowing words. “Did you sleep here?”
