"I talk am!..." Idris yelled,his voice indicating more of disappointment than the accustomed mocking tone. Daniel watched him tiredly from his bed as Idris gestured about the room.
"I told you guys,this girl is not to be trusted. But what did you do,Daniel?..." Idris continued to say while Kayode cleaned the furniture off dust but there were hardly any dirt. Kayode was simply trying to ignore Idris and the self denial he was feeling right now. "You were busy doing love in Tokyo,taking relationship advice from Mr. Kayode there who's never had any white girl as his girlfriend before!."
Daniel sat up on the edge of the bed trying to contain the resentments Idris was fueling inside him again. For the past two days after the party's incident he didn't tell his friends about what happened and when he finally told them. This what's happening. Idris scorning and Kayode disappointed.

GRAY Gray walked elegantly into his family's parlour with his parents and his sister rightly seated on separate couches. He adjusted his unbuttoned black suit jacket briefly before relaxing to one of the couches. He crossed his right leg over the other while his left fingers played with a big dice. He chose to ignore the hostility his family showed him; His Father was especially glaring while Mother chose to view magazines she was obviously not paying attention to and his sister...glued to her phone."At first I was beginning to take pride in your confidence the last time you came here but now...I realize you're an utter failure!." His Father bellowed while Gray smirked."You got us insulted,young man!. Above all,Zoey broke the alliance yet you still have the effrontery to reside over us like a K

"Remember,I don't want her to get seriously hurt.""Copy that." ZOEYIn the large office of Mrs. Johansson inscribed in one of the Johansson's skyscraper one could hear the vehement argument ongoing between mother and child. Her Mother's office was relatively large,well spaced and ventilated rewarded with a large glass wall that bestowed an astonishing view of other buildings and the bustled streets of New York. The room was simple styled;Gray coloured that appeared faintly almost blending with the light rays beaming from the large glass wall. At the front of this wall,lay a black desk that held a laptop, some few files arranged in an orderly manner,an exotic lampstand and swivel chairs accompanying alongside. And at the far end of the room sideways the desk lay a comfy black couch,glass encrusted stool,rooted finely on the luxurious gray rug.Today Zoey had planned on making her point w

DANIEL In the early hours of the morning,Daniel had strolled for a walk down the street. Usually,he would hang his camera around the neck and wear a countenance that defined optimism but this day was different. In fact,it started on a bad note. He was burdened. He and his friends had only one day left to exit their apartment,he also lost his job,Idris is still furious at him and seemingly disappeared yesterday,Kayode was busy looking out for apartments they could afford. He understood all this misfortunes were his fault which was why he had called Zoey severally. In hope for her to help but when none of those calls came through,he concluded it was time to let go. She had moved on and he had been the victim of heartbreak. All of his depressive thoughts changed when he accidentally bumped into a woman. Isabella, Louis's wife."Isabella?,my goodness what are you doing here in New York?." Daniel asked with heavy dose of

ZOEY Zoey battled hard to contain her tears as she stormed towards Gray's white Mercedes-Benz CLS class vehicle parked by the road bank. Her legs were failing her,growing numb at intervals,her breaths came out heavy and short just wallowing on the brink of hyperventilation,The pain that thumped heavily in her chest burned more than her wounds. Various thoughts were scaling her mind at every step,she had thought Daniel different,a gentle soul,pure,until she walked into his apartment watching him cuddle happily with not just any random lady but Isabella. Louis's wife. Had he not shame?,nor dignity that of all people he decided to sleep with was his friend's wife. And what drove him to cheat on her?!,for just a lingering misunderstanding and he had began flirtatious ways.She was a fool to have trusted him to have fallen in love with him. She briskly wiped the tears lingering on her face before hopping into Gray's vehi

GRAYThree weeks now that he had been stalking Zoey here in Canada. Although he found it tiring and frustrating,he definitely knew all his hard work would pay off sooner or later. From the information he had stockpiled,Zoey usually took most of her weekdays acting in her highly awaited movie and on weekends she spent it going hiking or partaking in other leisure activities he didn't give a penny to care about. What he was more focused on was her weekdays. After her shoots or during occasional breaks she usually visits a certain restaurant. Alo restaurant,one of Toronto's finest located third floor in Victorian building. Where she would have her lunch delicacy with her Personal Assistant,Trisha,friends or lucky fans. Sometimes it would be lunch and sometimes she was just there spending her leisure time texting.This was the perfect time he could anchor an acquaintance with her. A perfect coincidental meeting tha

ZOEYIn the hotel room where Zoey took residence,there she was in her luxurious bathroom painted in a near gold colour and in a bathtub;her body covered in soap foam except her head that rested on the edge. The delightful scent of lavender And the calm music that played from her room was enough to send her into thinking. With her eyes shut,she thought of her day she shared with Gray. There was only one thing that lingered in her head. The moment when he had asked her on a date. She loathed herself for being so weak in her resolve and here she is, contemplating on going on a date with Gray. The same man who had maltreated and ended their relationship in the first place. There was always one truth that kept taunting her from within;Beneath the hatred brewing for him, some part of her were still attracted to him. A tiny part that has failed to fade. There was also Daniel,the man she still loves who ended up breaking her heart. Certainly, she

ZOEYHer Hazel eyes opened faintly to the lights that brightened the room. The room was chill and calm,her king-size bed was soothing to her body but her insides were burning. Raging from the thoughts of yesterday's actions.######Her room door flung open revealing the darkness that existed thereof. She wasn't bothered neither was Gray. She stepped into this darkness gingerly with her back facing the room and her face engulfed in a steamy kiss with Gray. She strolled gingerly yet desperately into the room while Gray followed suit, entangling his tongue with hers. His hands flung the door shut and briskly returned to her waist then to her spotless back where he pressed softly. In their steamy moment he shook her to the wall causing a help to escape her lip as her back hit the wall gently. Within a second he shut her up with another round of a steamy kiss,this time pressing the entirety of his body aga

ZOEYA kiss from Daniel would have left her breathless but not Gray's. It was brief yet intense and passionate but not exciting in the very least. She was just as shock ridden as Jane who stared dumbfounded at them while others clapped with a cheerful chatter. As she stared into his ocean blue eyes clear like a child's,her insides was a growing storm that couldn't be unleashed. Instead,her face morphed into a superficial smile shot at his proud face."We need to talk in private." She mentioned in a growling whisper. Gray simply nodded in accordance,pulling her by the wrist gently outside the room. Once she affirmed that they were far from stalky eyes she flung her wrist away from his grasp. Facing his grimaced innocent face with an icy glare. She folded her arms against her chest tightly,her teeth grinding against each other and her breath slow and heavy."What was that stunt you pulled in ther

DANIELPARISDaniel dressed his son,John, in the same outfit he was donning. A classic short sleeves dark blue T-shirt layered with a dark green bomber jacket. On a blue slim fit jean and black Chelsea boots to complement it all. He shot his son a bright smile once he had finished dressing him up."There! My little Johnny looks stunning." Daniel gestured with a wink while John grinned sheepishly. The boy's eyes flowed to Funke who stood behind them."Mommy!" John pulled away from his grasp and up to his mother. Daniel arose to his stance shooting his divorced wife a faint smile. They've been divorced for two months now but they still went on vacations together. Only for John's sake. During this months,he resigned from his managerial position and resumed his work in photography. He was also based in New York with his son while Funke remained in Nigeria with a working class job. H

DANIEL As Daniel stared into the Camera Zoey bought for him eight years ago,memories of yesterday flashed. How she retained her ever graceful beauty. Except for the changes which he still fancied. Her long straightened black hair she notably dyed. The rest were just the same;her petite body,those Hazel eyes that glittered and her soft voice which always melted his heart. There was also the sadness accompanied with her smile. It signified how much pain and suffering she had faced over the years. She might not have noticed it but he did. Daniel's mind travelled to the walk and conversation they shared at a garden. He realize her perspective towards issues had changed too. She had grown pessimistic and overly stiff towards him. It was bound to happen anyway. After so many misunderstandings and long years apart,she was right to distrust him. His hands curled into a fist when he remembered all the sufferings she

ZOEY"I must say you've changed drastically." Daniel mumbled as they walked down the street with cups of Coffee in their hands. She arched her eyebrows briefly."The same can be said for you too." She remarked."Oh well,thanks to my past life." He smiled but she ignored it. Choosing to pay attention to even the slightest act he orchestrated. "I have a son." He muttered in a solemn tone. "John,a six year old." His eyes were fixed upfront. She knew he wasn't ready to face her from the guilt that consumed him. On the other hand,she was shocked and failed miserably in handling the bombshell. There was also the pain that sprang up in her chest too."Congrats." Was all she could force her nerves to say. He gazed at her."That didn't come from your heart." He remarked."And how do you know that?" She retorted. Her palms secretly clenching.

DANIEL As the plane landed on the cold floor of New York,all Daniel could think of was the day before. How his Mother had argued vehemently against his decision and Funke crying helplessly. Looking pathetic in her pleas levied to him. Regardless,he didn't waver on his decision. And to avoid further troubles,he decided to move to New York under the pretence of work urgency. Of course Funke had done a lot for he and his family but that didn't warrant love. The moment he had gotten his memories,he realized who his heart belonged to. Zoey Johansson. On a normal day,Daniel would have chosen to pay his friends a visit. But today trailed a different path. Zoey was his only priority. He thirsted to see her,how she has been faring,what work she was up too and above all,the changes she embraced over the years. Thinking about the good times together brought a smile to his face and more than ever he wished to reliv

DANIEL° "Mommy don't tell you're proposing a marriage between Funke and I?" He lifted his eyebrow in a quizzical manner. "What does it look like I'm doing? You've stayed abroad long enough and you're beginning to loose your touch with culture." "That's not enough reason mommy. Besides,I'm not ready for any marriage wahala." "She's a good girl,you both are compatible. Ko si wahala Kan Kan" "And how do you know that?. She's not one I'll even approve to be honest."

DANIEL"Where are you?!"Daniel sighed,glaring wearily at his iPhone that brightened from his wife's message that popped on his screen. He tossed his phone across his desk from mild irritation.Eight years. Within a span of this period a lot had happened,things had changed. He could start with him rising to a managerial post in one of GT bank's head office. All appraisal to Funke. Back then, he had appreciated her efforts and affection for him until his mother proposed the idea of marriage. He disagreed vehemently but as time passed with Funke continuing her sweet actions. Pressure from both sides,he eventually succumbed for one reason. To repay the debts as she had already done a lot for he and his family.His marriage was blissful when it just bloomed. Although as it aged,Joy became a news of the past,peace ceased to reign. All that replenished their marriage was ceaseless arguments and

ZOEY Zoey started her day with heavy drinking but she need not to worry. Her body had already grown accustomed to this new habit. It wasn't anyone's fault though,she only blamed herself for being weak. Weak to face life and it's harsh reality. Her days of childhood were spent in pampering by her parents. Even when she had grown into a young adult,her life basically still defined pampering. Everything she wanted was at ease. She didn't have to go through life's struggles and hustles be it. But soon that sweet life changed the moment the first love of her life changed drastically. From the most loving man to a monster in disguise. Then her life migrated from Gray to Daniel. The most adorable,sweetest,caring and handsome man she's ever seen. She smiled sadly staring at the photo album he had gifted her on Christmas. Dated to that day,she had vowed to treasure it and keep the memories that came along with this gift in her heart. But loo

DANIEL"That was for kissing me last night without my permission." His calm tenor voice came out seductive yet thrilling in a way. She let out the chill air residing in her throat as his gaze were still strongly locked to hers and his face inching closer by every second appreciating the beauty her face beheld."And this..." That sweet tune escaped his lips again. He looked at those Hazel eyes again. Innocent and pure."Is for stealing my heart." He finally finished his statement and without further ado. He smashed his lips against hers again. Her moans weren't given much liberty to escape her throat as his tongue had found it's way to hers. Intertwining passionately,both basking in their lustful sensations and struggling for domination.Then another blurry memory played in his head.H

FUNKE The morning was peaceful but she was at war. Daniel's mother had gone to the market while Uncle B busied himself with his usual business;drinking and chasing after women with his friends. Leaving her with Daniel who was still asleep in his room. Days had passed since she last visited nor even spoken to Daniel. She was only here due to his mother's request. The feeling of rejection was still there. Her love for him could be dated back to their secondary school days. When she had bumped into him from obliviousness at the library. Their array of books had clashed and crashed to the marble floor but he didn't take offence. Rather,he had expressed the most brightest and heartwarming smile she had ever seen. Scooping her book gently and arranging them in a straightened order. She had apologized countlessly for her actions but he maintained his countenance,apologizing instead. It was that smile,that care and warmth i
