"Funky baby!..." Uncle B yelled in a voice of appraisal while His Mother's smile deepened. Daniel swallowed his saliva retaining on his tongue down his throat as he reviewed the lady properly. Funke at the gate in her ever charming beauty,more intriguing than he remembered. Their eyes met and she was equally as shocked like he was.
"Daniel!!" She yelled from evident excitement coursing through her body.
"Funke?!" He cocked an eyebrow as they both paced to each other. Giving themselves a tight hug. He was immediately embraced with an apple flavored scent and she was equally welcomed with his cologne that basked over their embrace.
"My Goodness!,when did you arrive?" She squeaked whilst jumping excitedly.
"Some minutes ago..." He laughed. "And you,what are you doing here?." He asked while his eyes reviewed marvelously at her. She was wearing a wine coloured off should

ZOEYTies could be seen swinging in the air as various board of directors scurried along various floors leading to the highest level in the Johansson's company skyscraper. Anxiety could be perceived and a a certain amount of restlessness reeked off them. Regardless,Zoey was oblivious to these things. She was right seated at the end of the long dressed in a black formal suit with a white inner shirt and her now straightened hair packed in a ponytail. Behind her was a large thick glass window that illuminated the narrow but long room. It gave her the proper glance of her Parents board of directors who all scurried into the room with a nervous expression plastered on their faces. Each of them taking comfort with the black swivels hugging beneath the white desk. They paid their greetings but she bought none of them. She wasn't here for the directors nor business. There was only one thing,Revenge. Her tiny smile vanished into

DANIEL Daniel jolted awake from his sleep with his eyes ranging about the room donned in dark green paint. He first reviewed the gray bed sheet he was currently sitting up on as if the colour and scent wasn't the same like he remembered. To his right was a large wooden wardrobe leaning against the wall. Meters away from the furniture was a wooden door locked;one he presumed was his bathroom. To the right was a medium sized window with the curtains parted to the clip by the wall revealing the beautiful ray of light that illuminated his room. Apart from his bedside stand,the medium size bed,the black ceiling fan that rolled at an overwhelming speed,the wardrobe,the black tiles,his room was scanty. Exactly how he remembered. His focus diverted to the conversation coming from the Parlour. He assumed quickly his Father was probably with a visitor. His mind wandered to his little sister Adejoke. He wondered what mischief she was up

ZOEYIn the early hours of the morning,Zoey had visited her parents mansion. She had hoped to find comfort to fill the emptiness within her but in the end. She ended up a crying mess. Thinking about the turbulence that life had bestowed upon her. She wished for days when she was younger,where she knew no pain,no disappointments nor betrayal. Simply love. In the end,that wish is a castle in the air.There was so much responsibilities now,so much pain,anger,and betrayal now. From her relationship troubles to her parents deaths,to her best friend's betrayal,her career flop and most importantly,being the CEO. If one had told her life will turn into a simmering mess such as these,she would have vehemently argued. But this is life and it's unexpected tidal waves. People expects her to be strong,to pull through this catastrophe but the truth is...everything was a facade. Deep inside she was mourning her great loss.

DANIEL"How are you feeling now?." Her silky voice phased softly past his ears. As she sat beside him outside on the wooden bench in the passage. Weeks had passed yet he hadn't remembered anything. His mother's cheeriness he once visualized were still weary since his injury and his playful uncle too was now a silent man. He felt like all these changes were his fault and he thought of several ways to bring this joy back. For things to revert back to normal."Very well." He answered touching his forehead briefly and grateful for the bandage that was removed yesterday by his Doctor. She smiled too except it only lasted for some seconds."I've been thinking lately..." He muttered,staring at his mother's brown eyes that lacked the brightness it usually carried."About what?." She asked in a whisper."I want to start afresh. Weeks have passed and nothing seems to be coming

GRAY"Mr. Robertson!...""Mr. Robertson!!..""Mr. Robertson!!... What do you have to say after the partnership with Johansson group of companies suddenly crashed?!.""There are rumours that your Family will soon drop from the status of billionaires after Johansson company deserted your partnership,is that true?!."Gray squeezed his eyes as more of cameras popped around him and his entourage who were busy clearing the path to his Rolls Royce Phantom. Their lights flashing and microphones appearing from various angles with a sizeable amount of hustling reporters clustering around him as he progressed. Gray was still battling with the letter of termination he just received from his Father's company he just stepped out of and now he had to deal with this persistent crowd and their strong resolve in succumbing to their heat and questions that flowed ceaselessly yet eloquently f

ZOEY"Gurney's Star Island Resort and Marina?" Zoey arched her eyebrows as she faced Richard in the reception."You don't like it?. We can lodge somewhere else if you want." He answered truthfully, abstaining from the payment he was about to make. Zoey took a brief glimpse at Jane who was already humming and shivering from excitement. Zoey rolled her eyes noting how much her friend loved luxury. Zoey had only visited this resort once. And that was with Gray. Staying here would only ruin her mood further for it would only birth memories of the past rather than enjoyment. But for the sake of Jane and Richard's body language that expressed how much he loved this place already,she decided to stay."One night and that's all." She responded. He grinned neither did she wait any further,strolling away from both of them already engulfed in their biddings. She chose to walk by the pool side with her arms hugging her

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.

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

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
