"Wow, what a good storyteller" Tatiana said as she came into the kitchen, still clapping her hands. I have feeling she must have been outside for a while. "Tatiana, enough of this. Stay out of this. I'm here discussing with my wife. Whatever she tells me is not of your business, I asked for it and I choose to believe it." Kene said, facing Tatiana.  I watched Tatiana as she moved round the kitchen, I could read the anger in her eyes.  "What am I? I'm I not your wife too?" she asked Kene. I felt tempted to scream 'No' but I had to restrain the urge.  "I don't know, that's what you told me, that is what you made me believe," "But I don't think I can stoop so low to marry a second wife, I know our daughter looks exactly like me, but what I don't understand is how," "The truth is I don't trust you Tatiana, I don't know why but

Jobs! One of the things that were hard to get in Nigeria was a job. My heart kept beating fast as I awaited my interview, in a few minutes time I will be called into the CEO's office and that scared me senselessly.  Unlike others applicants, my interview was different. I was to be interviewed by the CEO of Ian's company, since I applied for the position of a personal secretary. I looked around the waiting room, shivering a bit. I glanced around with an impatient frown on my face. A young man in grey tuxedo came in, holding tightly to a newspaper. I could see his face was striking. The wide cheek bones and sensuous lips were noticeable. His eyebrows and lashes were as dark as his hair. I couldn't help but imagine, does he have wife? Or was he engaged? My curiosity was just aroused.  Then unexpectedly, he looked up and our eyes met. His eyes didn't have a moody or bored look. They were sharply alert, a tremour ran through my spine at

Reluctantly I pulled into the parking space and dragged my feet all the way in the front door of the gaping company tower. Ian and Co was boldly written at the frontal part of the massive looking company. Thanks to Chi who allowed me to make use of her car when mine developed an unforeseen fault this morning, or else I would not have been able to get to the company as early as this.  A couple of staffs stood talking in the lobby as I opened the door, conversation instantly stopped as they artlessly stared at me as I entered. I kept walking with my head raised high, I continued through the foyer and into the open area of the so called main office, as soon as people saw me, a collective hush grew. I suddenly wished I could melt into the floor. I walked cautiously to the CEO's office, ignoring the alarming look on the secretary's office as she tried to stop me.  "Good morning, Mr Ian." I said breaking into his thoughts.

I left home after calling Mr Adams back to inform him I wouldn't be able to make it due to some unforeseen circumstances, I could sense the disappointment in his voice, but there was nothing I could do.  Chi tried to convince me not to go making different thoughts and opinions, most especially scary ones. But I ignored her, she left when she realised I wasn't going to listen to her. I stared widely at Ian's huge mansion, hoping I didn't make a mistake coming here. I felt out of place as I proceeded to step in, a young man in black suit stepped out before I could even get closer.  "Follow me ma'am." he said in a rich baritone voice. I followed the man into the compound, my mouth opened wide on its own accord, the mansion was beautiful, like too magnificent. It spelt sophistication. I just hoped I won't get lost.  Men in black suits could be seen standing at differen

Chi was sitting on my bed with her eye glasses at the tip of her nose. I cleared my throat loudly, taking a gulp of water from the water bottle on the desk at arm's length to my bed.  "Stop wasting my time, Ada." Chi shouted impatiently. I rolled my eyes backwards at her reaction. "Calm down, Madam." I replied, looking at her with a smile on my face.  "We kissed," I whispered softly, looking elsewhere but her face.  "You kissed? Who did you kiss?" she asked, sitting up on the bed. I faced palmed, sighing heavily.  "I kissed him, like we kissed." I explained.  "Who is the person you kissed? You are just saying you kissed, tell me who? You say him? Is it an her you want to kiss before?" she asked me.  "But wait, you kissed Mr Adams? But I thought you cancelled your date with him because of that your bipolar bos
