Sitting on the couch, she watched May draw a few things in her notebook while soliloquizing as she engaged in her art work. A smile appeared on her face as she watched the little girl do her work diligently. It was a saturday evening and they had both stayed back at home as usual, doing nothing. This was their lives now. No more outing, no more visiting or engaging in any other outdoor activities. Everything changed since they moved to SA to start a new life. She knew this life was boring and strange from the life she was used to. But things had to change, she thought to herself. Her thoughts narrowed to Daren and the smile disappeared from her face. All through the day, she hadn’t stopped thinking about him. She couldn’t stop thinking about the moment they shared last night. It brought back real memories which she was trying so hard to erase. But ever since he left last night, she hadn’t heard a word from him and it got her a bit worried. She was still deep in thought when a knock

“Who taught her the word, kissing?” He asked in whispers. “I don’t know,” she said with all seriousness as she walked over to the kid. “Come over here,” she said as she dragged her away from the kitchen. “Lisa, be easy on the child,” he voiced out after her with a smile appearing on his lips. Thunderbolts could be heard as they both arranged the dishes on the dining table. “Wow, this is lovely,” Melisa said with a smile as she sat beside the overly excited May. “Daddy, daddy, I love jollof rice,” she cried as Daren took his seat opposite her. “I know. Your mom told me,” he said with a smile. “Now, who’s gonna bless this meal?” Melisa asked. “Me,” May cried with a giggle and they all laughed. “Come on, let’s hear her out,” Daren said with a smile. “Dear God, bless our meal for us, and make mommy and daddy be together around me always. Amen,” she prayed. Their brows raised as they heard the little girl’s prayer. They stared at each other for a moment and looked away. “May, y

LAGOS, NIGERIA. 11:55AM.The car sped along the ever busy airport road and their laughter and cheerful voices could be heard in the car as they chatted excitedly with Evan who had come to pick them up from the airport.“I’m really so glad to have you guys back. Man, I thought we’ve lost you forever in SA,” he said from where he sat before the steering wheels.Daren smiled and looked at Melisa who was sitting beside him, beautifully dressed in white long satin dress. Her beautiful face was wearing light makeup with her black curly artificial hair falling over her shoulders.“You know, you could have lost him to me forever if I wasn’t lenient in bringing him back,” she remarked and they all laughed.“What’s so special in coming back to Nigeria, except for seeing you guys?” Daren asked with a smile as he caressed the sleeping May in his arms.“Really? Well, I’m glad you realize I’m still important to you,” Evan said and they all laughed again.The car pulled up in Evan’s home and they a

In the small dim chambers, she sipped her wine slowly with her face looking downcasted. Mrs Selina could also be seen sitting on the couch opposite her with her legs crossed stylishly.“Elsa, what do you think about my decision concerning Daren? Do you think it’s harsh?” She asked with her eyes looking deep in her face.She heaved a sigh and took a deep breath.“No, mother. Daren needs to be taught a lesson,” she voiced out sternly.“Great. When he finally learns his lesson, I believe he will come back crawling before our feet,” she said with a chuckle.There was a moment of silence and she took a sip from her glass and raised her head to her mother.“So, what are your plans for the company?” She asked.“Well, from what we’ve witnessed so far, Dotun has done so well in handling the company. Right, daughter?” She asked with a smile.She nodded and heaved a sigh.“He really did so well as a CEO,” she acknowledged.“So, I was thinking, now that he is the only one left, why don’t we hand

Inside the mini-mall, a few people could be seen walking to and fro. Before the cashier's desk, he stood waiting patiently for his items to be wrapped up. “Oh, thank you,” he said as he was handed the items now wrapped up in a shopping bag.He was about to turn when he felt a presence beside him. He could see the average heighted brown skin man talking to the cashier on the counter. His brows raised and a smile appeared on his face.“Mr Bronze,” he called.The man turned with his brows raised and they both stared at each other in surprise.“Charles,” he called in surprise as he stared at Charles Boseman who was staring at him with a smile on his handsome face.“It’s good to see you again,” he said with a smile and they both shook hands warmly.“I heard what happened, how you left the mansion. Now you are finally becoming a man,” Mr Bronze remarked with a chuckle and Charles managed a small smile on his lips.“Come, we need to talk. My car is parked outside,” he urged and Charles nodd
