View MoreThe sun was shinning brightly, it was almost blinding. Its rays penetrated the window of the room where Ben was relaxing on the divan, lost in her own world different thoughts wandered through her mind some of which were of her ex-boyfriend, Daniel. "Bad dude" she muttered at the thoughts of him, she let out a small smile. He really explored her as much as she tried to loathe him now she couldn't he was a player but was also good in his nasty ways.
The sun rays penetrated the window heavily this time, beaming its lights directly on Ben's face.
"I thought there was an ozone layer to prevent this ultra violet rays." She groaned, if she was to make a wish at the moment, her one wish would be for the sun to shine less but who was she to stop nature from taking its course?She changed the direction of where she was seated and flopped on her queen-sized bed, the rays penetrated less at that side of the room where her bed was placed.She contemplated on cooking and taking a quick nap. Napping was having the upper hand when her phone beeped it was a call from her best friend, Esther.
She swiped the screen of the phone and picked the call."Hey Bestie, have you checked?" Came Esther's loud voice.
"Psycho" Ben muttered under her breathe, Esther doesn't know how to be formal with her, greetings before asking questions wouldn't harm her. But no, she starts every conversations haphazardly. Well, that's why they were best friends though. Damn being formal. "Checked what?" She asked confusingly.
"I have been posted!" Esther yelled almost deafening Ben's ear.
"You dummy, better stop yelling?" Ben warned.
"Common Bes I'm just so happy." She laughed, melting Ben's heart softly the rich sound of her laughter does a lot of strange things to Ben, one of the reasons why she chose her to be her best friend she needed to hear this sound more often.
"What's the craziness about?" Ben asked. "What's so special about being posted?"
"Ben! I swear its so special!" Esther shouted.
"Where were you posted to?" Ben asked looking all serious.
"Guess baby." She played Ben.
"I can't." Ben said honestly.
"Dumb head! Ekiti state baby!" She yelled again. She has a talent for shouting.
"Oh my God Esther! You will damage my ear drums if you don't stop screaming." Ben complained.
"Sorry babe. I'm just so excited." It was obvious from her yelling, "It was too sudden I never expected it." She told Ben gladly.
"Congrats though." She sounded hypocritical although she was happy for her best friend. "Can I check with my phone?" Ben suddenly got nervous.
"Of course babe you can." Esther told her.
"Alright, I will call you back." Ben ended the call before Esther could say her next words, she hesitated for a while before opening the chrome app on her phone. She paused and thought of Esther, she was lucky her grandparents lived in Ekiti state and they were a lot of people she could easily run to whenever she was stranded plus she'd get to see the warm spring in Ikogosi. Ben smiled and tapped the screen of her phone again.
"Why am I nervous?" She asked herself. "Yes, I was waiting for this." she ran a hand through her braided hair and finally summoned the courage to check. She clicked on the app and typed in her details she closed her eyes out of anxiety and opened again, she stared at the screen and blinked incessantly at the information that was displayed on it.
"Kano?" She asked herself again.
"Kano?" She repeated, furrowing her eye brows.
"Okay Kano." She accepted it wasn't an hallucination, it was real. She was posted to Kano state. "Kano" she dialed Esther's number..

Two months later, "My best! I can't believe you're getting married today." Esther kissed Ben and sat close to her, her baby was with David. "I don't believe it either, but it's happening." Ben sighed, she touched her head and the crown stood firmly on her head. "Are you done?" She asked the make-up artist. "Just the final touchings, and it's over." She responded to Ben. "Alright. I'm so nervous, I have seen you and Annie get married, I saw how nervous you both were on your wedding day, now is my turn." She laughed. "I can't wait to see Roshan, have you seen him, what does he look like?" She was eager. "Common, you will see him very soon. And Annie, where is she?" Esther noticed she wasn't around.
Two weeks later,After Roshan ignored Ben for almost a week, she was able to explain things to him, and they made up.Daniel apologised to Ben and promised to let go of her, everyone was on good terms again.Ben was discussing with Samiat about her school when Roshan's call came in, he asked her to meet him somewhere.She told Samiat and hurried to dress up. When she was done, she left the house and went to meet Roshan.She got to the restaurant, and he was already waiting for her. Ben beamed with a smile when she saw Roshan where he was seated, staring at his watch —he must be checking the time to see if she was late."Hey," she kissed his cheeks and sat close to him.
Ben was working on the file on her table, her full attention directed to it, she was trying to get the main point of rejecting the proposal Roshan sent out to Johreeb company.It was well written with reasonable points, what else did they need?She kept the file and took something else to work on."Ben?" She heard her name and looked up, she scoffed and went back to what she was doing, she didn't want to speak to him."You don't want to talk to me right?" He drew out the chair and sat on it."I haven't given you the permission to sit down." She stared at him with a bloodshot red eyes."I can sit right?" He grinned at her. "Why didn't you pick up your calls?" He asked her but she pretended not to hear him talking to you."And I choose not to answer, what the hell do you want from me Daniel?" She banged the table and yell on top of her voice. "What do you want?" She glared at him."You don't have to do that." He felt embarrassed.
Samiat entered into the house with ecstasy written all over her face —something good must have happened to her, no doubts."Welcome aunty." She hollered, finding it hard to contain the joy she felt inside of her."Welcome dear, how're you? I got back from work and didn't meet you at home, where have you been?" She asked her."Been at the cafe, was trying to load my information and the network was really bad." That smile was still visible on her face."So, were you able to do it?" Ben sat up."Yes and I just can't thank you enough for the support. I checked my admission status and I..." She stopped and tears flowed down her cheeks."It's okay if you don't get what you want, we are here..." Ben stood up to console her."I got it aunty! I got it! I got the admission to study law in the university. Oh my! I can't believe this." She went down very weak and wept. She had never had any intention to study law but the circumstances that
Six months later."Oh my God, this movie is so great." Ben hollered as they walked into the cinema, it was a new movie by one of her favorite actors and she just couldn't to see it with Roshan. "You saw the trailer right? It was so mad that I promise to see it as soon as it comes out. Thanks for coming here with me." She intertwined their fingers and led him on. She took a seat at the middle roll and beamed with satisfaction.They waited for the movie to start."I'm so excited about this." Ben said to Roshan. "You know my favorite Nigerian actress is the main character and she's just so good." She told him and he nodded his head. "Don't you like her?" Ben asked him."I don't even know who you are talking about." He shook his head and stared at her."To think that I hardly sit down and see a moviw, you've influenced me so much and I just can't imagine how much." He told her and she smi
The building was gigantic and all painted white. Ademide had been in there two days ago —a day after the day they arrived in China.The day scheduled for her surgery was the next day, Ben and her grandmother were outside the hospital, checking out the tall buildings as Ben had begged her to stay that she wanted to take pictures of them.Ademide's grandmother clutched her bag to her chest and stared around in wonder, she had never seen such a high building in her life. When Ben was done taking the pictures, she went to the old woman."I'm sorry for keeping you waiting but I had to do that for documentary purposes." She smiled at her."It's fine, do you still remember the way to the doctor's office? I don't think I do." She asked Ben."Sure." They entered the building and walked in slowly. It was different, few white patients were seated at reception, they were young doctors around att
