The Gala and Love
Stepping into the apartment, I dropped my bag on the couch and made Funke follow me to the kitchen. I was hungry for homemade fried rice and chicken.It took us an hour to get the food done, then we ate and drank a bottle of non-alcoholic blue wine as a form of our mini celebration while dancing like crazy people in the kitchen. Finally, when we were exhausted, I checked the time to see that it was still 2:55 pm, and we decided to sleep it off. Setting our alarm for 4:30 pm we slept off, not on the bed but the couch in the parlor.The alarm clock jolted us up as we hated the song. Quickly dismissing the alarm, it took us 10minute to stand up."Ife, let's go and shower, I smell like the chicken sauce" I laughed but stood up nonetheless.Entering our rooms, I head to the shower and took a nice long bath, washing, and shaving. After a good scrubbing, I turned off the shower and stepped out wrapping my towel around my body.Checking my wardrobe, I decided to wear my long red Ankara, with

Old Wounds
"You do?" he asked incredulously and I nodded and before I knew what was happening, he was carrying me by the waist and twirling me. "I love you so freaking much, my love and I will always do" I put my head on his chest, his heartbeat my music as we swayed to the ending of the song. Ethan pulled me for a long soft kiss and then I heard claps around. We walked back to our seats. Not long after, Ethan and Joel excused themselves to meet an investor. Funke and I decided not to go as our legs were killing us. So, while we waited, we ate to our satisfaction and then some. The food was amazing. I finished stuffing my face with food and drank the juice I ordered since I didn't want to get drunk.Funke and I were appreciating some women who came to comment on our gowns. I was smiling and telling them that we were from Nigeria until I noticed Funke tensed up. "Funke, what's wrong?" I asked her. She looked angry but concerned that's when I heard that voice, his voice. "Ifeoluwa" I tensed n

The past (Reminiscing)
The beauty of the heartIs the ability to accept,The beauty of the homeIs the ability to accept the heart... Oluwatoyosi Precious POV I woke up to the rays of the sun in my eyes only to find an arm holding me down. Panicked, this isn't my room, this isn't my bed. Then I remember; I remember the party, David, and when Ethan brought me to his home. I relaxed as I see Ethan sitting on a chair right beside the bed, with his head on the mattress as he held onto my hand. Why was he here? Didn’t he go to the other room last night? I was sure he did. I stared at him and frowned at his position. He could get a neck cramp. Checking the time on my phone, it was 8:35 am. I closed my eyes and do my morning prayer, and once I was done, my head started buzzing with questions. David! The man that broke me. Why would he say he still loved me? Hadn't he done enough? I loved him and he threw all that away with just a single act. I couldn’t even begin to imagine what would have happened to me if

Strong
I placed my hands on him to try and calm him down before I continued.“Funke yelled at him, and hit him with a plastic pipe beside his bed but he just laughed at us, and then went on to tell me, that it had all been a plan. He only wanted to get into my pants, and that he never loved me. I was broken, Ethan. Funke helped me get out of there, and that's when I cried. I couldn't think, I couldn't function. What would he have done if Funke didn't get there? I knew then that God was amazing, or else I would have been shattered" I was full-on crying by the time I ended my rant.Why did he do such a thing? That was the question that kept me up at night for seven months straight. I loved him so much back then.I wiped my tears and turned my gaze to Ethan but he wasn't looking at me with pity like I expected, he looked at me with love. He stood from the chair and sat on the bed beside me, cooping me up into his arms in a warm embrace."You are the strongest person I know. Despite all that, y

Flight.
"Hello dear. You must be Precious. I'm Emily, Ethan’s cook" she said briefly and hugged me and I relaxed because she had motherly vibes.Ethan came out of the room holding a pillow about to hit me when Emily glared at him."She started it," he said pointing to me, and I pouted."I did not" I put on a fake hurt face."Okay you big babies, I made pancakes" I squealed and ran to the kitchen.Emily laughed and asked Ethan if I was always like this."With food, she is," Ethan said and I pouted. He pinched my cheeks but I decided not to retaliate since I already started stuffing my face with pancakes."Emily, Precious, and I are going on a vacation. We won't be back till Monday. Can you please, take care of the place till we get back" Monday? At least, I don't have classes till Wednesday because we are done with the classes I have then."Of course, dear, you guys enjoy yourselves." She replied and went back to the kitchen, leaving us to eat.We finished our food under fifteen minutes. I to

The wind blowing through the airThe feeling of freedom, so cool, so fresh,Happiness, an emotion expressed wildly,A smile on the face, the feeling of joy from within.Oluwatoyosi Precious POV "C'mon my love, you can't get away from me now... You belong to me, you understand? You belong to me" my head snapped to the side, and the pain from the slap brought tears to my eyes as I looked at the monster before me. The one I once loved... Oh, how people change drastically within a short period. "Please don't do this, you know how much I love you, please I beg you..." I was cut short with another slap to my face. "I'm tired of your excuses, you are my girlfriend and I have needs that having you, can fulfill," he shouted before tearing off my blouse and the whole room was filled with screams in less than a second, my screams. I couldn't let him do it. I wouldn't. He tore whatever was left of my blouse only to be exposed in my bra and jeans. I fought hard against him, slapping him, h

Paris & Birthday (Part two)
"C'mon, go shower and get dressed, we have a long day ahead. Wear something comfortable" Ethan said packing the tray of food and walking away. I went into the bathroom and brushed my teeth. Then I got into the shower and scrubbed my body after shaving. Stepping out of the shower, I wrapped a towel around my body and got out of the bathroom. I picked up my clothes and underwear from my suitcase and quickly got dressed. He said something comfy, so, I went with a tiny-handed, slightly backless, flower-patterned summer gown. I applied brown powder and nude lipstick. Then I put my braids in a ponytail, carving the hair sticking out with edge control. Satisfied with my look, I put on my brown flat sandals and hoped I was not too short beside Ethan. My phone chimed, picking it up, I saw a message. Happy birthday Ife, I wish you spent it with me. David... How did he get my number? I felt it as my hands started clamming. What if he's out to get me again? What does he want with me? Oh G

"Hey, baby, sorry I took so long," I said very sweetly while Ethan stared at me like he was caught opening a jar.He quickly moved away from the bimbo while I made myself comfortable."Can't you see he is busy?" the Blondie said with sass, I turned my head to look at her."Aww, I'm sorry, did my boyfriend not tell you he was waiting for me? I'm truly sorry but he is taken Blondie" Ethan flinched from my extra sweet tone. "She's your girlfriend?" the blondie huffed and Ethan replied with a yes and she stomped off. He looked back at me and smirked. I rolled my eyes."Is that jealousy, I detect?" he said with the stupid smirk still on his face"And so what if it is, you are mine baby" I replied smirking making him laugh out loud. "I'm your's babe, only yours" he kissed my temple."Now let's go have fun," I said jumping with excitement.I dragged Ethan to the water and pushed him inside since he was only in his boxers and t-shirt and my poor eyes were blinded by his Greek-like body.

Paris & Birthday Promises...
My heels clamped the tiles as I made my way over to Ethan who was as usual, very handsome wearing a red suit with a white shirt. "As usual, very beautiful my love" I blushed as he kissed my hands."You look handsome, baby" he chuckled. "Oh my, you both look amazing and perfect together" Emily squealed wrapping her arms around me as I hugged her back."We have heard that a lot today," Ethan said as he chuckled. "Thank you, Emily" I smiled at her. Ethan pulled me outside and I gasped at the sleek black limo waiting outside."Ethan, where are we going in a limo? This is too much," I said. He was spending too much on me.How do I repay him?"Don't you start your lecture about expenses babe? I just want to spoil you tonight. As for where we are going, it's a surprise" he replied wrapping his arms around my waist. I nodded in defeat and entered the limo.We pulled over after 20mins at a classy restaurant. The security opened the doors and we walked inside. "Welcome to Chez Pitou, do you

Love is patientObsession is crazy,In love, we careObsessed we tear...OluwatoyosiEthan's POV "Call the marketing team, and tell them that if their strategy isn't run by me in the next two days, they are all fired," I told my secretary through gritted teeth.I could feel my head throbbing and these constant calls and meetings weren’t helping at all."We can't trust any of them, Ethan. Someone is giving our competitors information that's very valuable; we need to be very smart about this" I sighed knowing Joel was right.Someone was trying to throw my marketing team off balance. I rubbed my temples gently trying to stop the headache from becoming worse. I had to resume work immediately after the trip to Paris and Precious had been considerate."You’re right. I will get someone to spy on things there and personally oversee their strategy. I don't know what they are trying to prove but it won't work with me" Joel's eyebrows furrowed at my tone but I could care less, once I find out
