Deji Adeniyi Novels & Stories

Something I had never done. With Sola, there were a lot of things I found myself doing which I didn't usually do. Like staying up late at night just to talk with someone. "Tell me about your family." she said, staring at me. I cleared my throat. "Nothing much about my family. My dad and my mom are happily retired and they stay together in Abuja. I have a younger sister who is a model and a lawyer. Her name is fayokunmi. I also have a... Half brother who is a year younger than me. He doesn't stay around here though. "

“Arianna is an only child, you have the wrong woman.” “I am Theodore Der Mandant,” he said, looking at Viktor who tensed. The man’s family was well known, and we knew that killing him would end up getting us in trouble. It wasn’t just about him being a messenger right now, it was about who HE was. “I do not make mistakes, and judging by your fumbled expression, I take it that you are well aware who I am, Alpha Dean.”

"Alright, suit yourself." After a quick dinner of noodles, Efe said goodnight and retreated to his room while Grace stayed up that night surfing the internet for all she could find about Veronica Badmus. "She wasn't lying about being rich though," Grace said to herself. Her dad, Chief Mike Badmus was a billionaire philanthropist, politician, and CEO of one of the top telecommunications companies in Nigeria. Asides from getting mentioned as related to her father, there weren't many pictures of them as a family although she ultimately got what she needed, a clear photo of Veronica with her father and mother.

-"no problem" "You just dey enjoy nii" - "You are just enjoying" Aliko Dangote- richest man in Nigeria and Africa also. Whyne- a slang for "flattery" "No dey whyne me nii"-- "Don't just flatter me". "Jare"- literally, a Yoruba word for "please" but can be used to initiate change of topic" as used in this chapter. Ehnn- a sound made, when someone suddenly remembers something.

Jamaima said with her eyes fixed on the road. "Your brother must be really rich then" she said as Jamaima muffled a laugh. "You mean you don't know my brother or you are just pretending?" She stared back at Lovelyn before focussing on the road again. "I don't know him, I'm new here after all" Lovelyn replied as Jamaima smiled. "Who doesn't know Richard Williams, he is one of the richest young men in Nigeria,girl are you even in this country?" Jamaima said almost like a question as Lovelyn widened her eyes in surprise.

She explains, getting out the car and Jymia following her. “Oh. Who sings this song?” I asks. “The song is called “Appreciation” by King Sunny Adé. He is a legendary Jùjú singer and his music gets played all the time in a Owambe party. So let’s go and enjoy ourselves.” She tells me.

I told Yuadoo as we entered the class. "Abi, see the way things are already looking, how will the rest of the term be like? This term should just go smoothly." Yuadoo agreed. "Dodo and Jazz. How far now?" (Yuadoo and Jasmine, how have you been?) "Ike please this is a new term for God sake and my name is not dodo." Yuadoo said getting irritated. Did I forget to mention one very annoying human being. Ikechukwu Dapo. He calls himself "Ikedaps" only God knows what kind of name that is. Or Iyke after the popular Nigerian actor, Jim Iyke.
