Today is the first day I was meeting up with Mr “sex on heels” so I have to dress to make a statement. I was going to a football field so I definitely had to dress in a sporty outfit and going to the office and then passing home to change would be a waste of time. I thought of putting on the Chelsea Jersey I used as my sports attire when I was in the university, but it was too obvious. I thought of putting on my pink tied together sweatpants with its matching no sweat crop top but decided against it. After trying different outfits, I settled for my puma classics black and pink tracksuit with black and white vans.
Nadine tried taking permission from the boss man so that she could leave early and join me in going to see Jam Timi but unfortunately for her, and fortunately for me he refused to let her leave early. Not that I didn’t want Nadine to come along but It was my first meetin

TimiIn my entire life, I had never met a girl like Nahlela. Most at times, people ignored the bullshit I said and tried to kiss my ass but I must agree, she put me in my place. I intentionally called her Nadia instead of Nahlela to make her feel irrelevant, like a fly on the wall but instead, she told me off. I must confess that she was bold and daring and of course, very outspoken. I always tried to avoid the press as much as possible, but I found myself wanting to do the interview. Not because I was interested in the article she planned on writing, but rather because I wanted to spend time with her. I wanted to know what made her tick. When I first saw Nahlela at the football field, I was immediately drawn to her. She had this glossy dark skin which looked like it was dripping with melanin. she had slender eyebrows with long lashes which looked too long to be natural. Her eyes were li

NahlelaI had just settled down in the office when Nadine rushed into the office and started whispering “He is here; he is here”. I asked her who she was talking about and when she said Jam Timi, my face fell immediately.“Are you not supposed to be happy girl?” she asked.“I think he is coming to report me to the boss. I kind of insulted him.”“what do you mean by that? It is either you insulted him or not”“When I approached him, before I could offer one word, he told me he is not interested. He thought I was propositioning him and when I finally introduced myself and said I am a journalist who wants to write an article about him, he implied that I am trying to use my looks in getting him to do an interview so I told him off and walked away.”“Wow girl, so he said you were sexy?”

NahlelaLast night, I forgot to set my alarm and by the time I woke up, it was already six o’clock. If I didn’t hurry up, I was going to be late. As I was coming out from the bathroom, my phone was ringing and it was my boss. Early morning calls from my boss usually meant more work. I picked up and he told me that Jam called him and informed him of the meeting we had today and he told me not to bother coming in. I was about to tell him that we had no meeting when he dropped the call. I checked my WhatsApp messages and I saw a message from Mr arrogant. It was the location he was talking about last night so I sent him a reply “I will need a better description. There’s no way I am showing a bike rider or Taxi driver this; I will look stupid.”I didn’t expect him to reply immediately, but he did two seconds later

Timi I was just from dropping Amanda off at her place when I met I met Nahlela. When she saw me, she quickly put on her sun shades and bent her head. I knew calling her last night was a bad idea but I still did. I was with Amanda when I called and I noticed that Amanda’s mood changed and she started frowning but I didn’t care. From the start, I had told her that I wasn’t looking for a relationship. What we shared was just sex. We were compatible in bed and that was all that mattered. I didn’t tell her personal stuff and she didn’t tell me anything too. When we hung out, we had sex, talked about nothing serious and then more sex. No personal information was exchanged. We didn’t even do the “how was your day” shit. We didn’t go on dates because dates meant opening up and we had decided against that. I always insisted on giving her money but she told me that she had money of her own and she wasn’t sleeping with me for money; so I settled on

CHAPTER ELEVENNahlelaI felt bad that Timi came right to my parent’s place to drop me, so I invited him in. Dad recognized him and they immediately started talking about football. When I joined mom in the kitchen to set the table for dinner, she tried asking me questions about him but I told her that I was interviewing him for an article and we had a meeting today. She tried to dig deeper but there was nothing more to say. Mom always complained that I was not dating anyone and I was growing old, so she always tried as much as possible to encourage me to go out more. Once or twice, she had tried to set me up on dates with her colleague’s sons but I didn’t even go because going meant giving her hope and I was not giving her false hope and of course, I wasn’t wasting my time. I saw Timi looking at family pictures on the wall and I thought he was going to bring

TimiThe same way I didn’t plan on ending my arrangement with Amanda but did it anyway, was the same way I didn’t plan on texting Nahlela but I did. I read somewhere that midnight was the best time to text girls because the lonely ones will always reply and so, I decided to try my luck. I was surprised when she replied and I was shocked when she told me about her twin sister. I had noticed their pictures at her parents’ house, but I didn’t want to bring up the issue because it was a sad story. I knew a few things about Nahlela from stalking her on Facebook but I pretended as if I knew nothing and waited for her to tell me everything herself.I had spoken about my family with Nahlela and it was a first for me. I had never told any girl anything about my background. Some looked up information about me from google and tried prying for more but I never told them anything. I was letting her in

NahlelaNadine and I finally decided to celebrate her “birthday” at Manjong Night Club. Since it was far from her place and closer to mine, the Plan was for her to stay at my place when we got back. That was just a plan because we both knew there was a high possibility that she will end up in the bed of a random stranger even though we preferred not to talk about it.I was surprised when I saw Timi walk into the club. I didn’t expect him to come over and greet us. When I invited him to join us, I was just being polite and I didn’t even expect him to accept. Before his cousin came, there was no tension because Nadine focused on him but everything changed once Nadine and Brandon started bonding. It was a relief when he asked me to dance because we were just sitting at the table staring at each other awkwardly and saying nothing. When I wen

TimiBreaking the kiss was the most difficult thing I had done in a long while but it had to be done. Things were getting out of hand and if we continued kissing for one more minute, I don’t think I was ever going to stop. Her body was soft and enticing and her curves were perfect. Her breast fit perfectly in my hands and let me not even talk about the burning sensation I felt when she placed her hands on my stomach and traced the line down to my navel. I had this feeling of loss when I broke the kiss. Telling her that we will meet at practice was a dick move and I knew it pissed her off but then reminding her that I won was satisfying in a way.When I left her, I went to my room and had a cold shower. It was my second one in less than three hours but it was very necessary. Sleeping under the same roof with Nahlela but in different rooms was a very effective form of torture. I wish I coul

TimiI watched Nahlela as she moved towards the fountain, the expression on her face was priceless, it was like she was mesmerised by everything. As she turned and stretched to touch the water, I quietly knelt down and softly called her name. when she turned and saw me on my knee with a box in a tiny velvet box ion my hand, she looked shocked. She wanted to speak but I cleared my throat and she kept quiet.“Nahlela Bih Samgena, from the first day we met, you got under my skin, there was something about you which I couldn’t place my hands on, then we got to know each other and it became evident why you always unnerved me, I loved you from the first day we met. Io love your smile, the way you talk, the way you walk, your personality, in fact I love everything about you. Since you came into my life, you have shown me that there is more to life, you have been my inspiration and muse, you hav

NahlelaEveryone was behaving strangely, like they were all hiding something from me. Timi had been very distant lately. Timi left home very early in the mornings and came back late at night and after eating and taking his bath, he slept immediately. Sometimes he fell asleep in the middle of conversations or in front of the television which was very unusual for him. I asked him if anything was wrong and he passively told me everything was fine. I felt like something was off so I insisted but he insisted everything was fine and I shouldn’t bother. I tried asking his sister Aaliyah but she said everything was fine and I shouldn’t bother.After the whole kidnapping saga, I had moved in with Timi and terminated my contract with my former landlord. I wanted to take a few days off because I felt like I was suffocating Timi; he didn’t exactly say it, but I felt like he needed a

NahlelaMom, dad and Timi rushed into the room at the same time. Before they could start asking me questions, I told them Nadine was behind the kidnapping. Timi said she had called earlier and when he told her I was unconscious, she said she was on her way. Dad immediately called the police and informed them of the new developments, Mom climbed on the bed and kept on hugging me. Timi just stood at one corner and kept on looking at me and smiling. I was so happy and grateful to have them. I told them the full story about how I was kidnapped and how I managed to escape and mom cried all through. I was trying not to cry but she was making it so difficult for me. Timi asked mom and dad to go home and promised to stay with me through the night. Mom tried refusing but we all told her to go home and rest and she said she will be back first thing in the morning. She and

NahlelaLater that evening, Nadine left the building and I was left with the boy who instead of watching me had been concentrating on his phone all through. I told him I was pregnant and needed to pee, so he took me to the bathroom. When I was done, I told him I was tired of sitting on one place and my back was aching. He seemed to take pity on me, so he brought out a tiny mattress from the wardrobe and gave me to sleep on it with a little blanket to cover my body. Early in the morning when I woke up, I noticed that he had fallen asleep and was snoring so I tiptoed to the door and tried the key and the door opened. The stupid boy had left the key on the door and fallen asleep. I wondered where Nadine had taken him from. He looked like a good kid trying to make fast money. I took out the key and when I closed the door from outside, I locked it with the key. The house was

TimiI hadn’t heard from Nahlela since she told me she was leaving the office. I called her and she didn’t pick up. I was worried. Two hours had passed already and it was so unlike her. I called her parents to ask if they had heard from her and they said they hadn’t. They promised to tell her I had been asking after her but I insisted that they go to her house and check up on her. They told me I was worrying over nothing, but agreed to go to her house and promised to take her to their place.Two hours later, Nahlela’s dad called me. He told me he had just received a call from Nahlela’s phone. She had been kidnapped and the kidnappers were demanding a ransom of twenty million francs. I wanted to leave Dschang and start going back to Bamenda but he told me he had it all under control. He told me he had installed a tracker on her phone once. I was really grateful for that. H

Nahlela I woke up when Timi was still asleep. I quietly got out of bed and went to the kitchen. He was leaving with the team for Dschang in a few hours’ time for the university games. I would have loved to go with him to watch the games but I had a doctor’s appointment; so he agreed to give me daily updates about the game so I would add to the article. I made him breakfast and packed some treats for the team to eat on the way. Then even though he insisted on the fact that he wasn’t a kid going to boarding school, I made some snacks for him. Timi insisted on hiring a driver for the few days he was away but I wasn’t having it. He said he wasn’t comfortable with me staying alone so I told him I was going to go and stay at my parent’s place till he came back. I was only pregnant and he was pampering me as if I was a baby. He even

TimiI woke up to seven missed calls from Aaliyah, mom and dad. I was already panicking, thinking there was an emergency but then I remembered it was my birthday so I calmed down. Instead of calling them back, I went to WhatsApp and checked the messages I had there. My friends and former team mates had sent me birthday wishes and the birthday wishes kept coming in. I scrolled down looking for Nahlela’s message but I didn’t see anyone from her. I didn’t really care about my birthday but I wanted her to care about it. I called Aaliyah on video call and then added mom and dad. They were together so dad picked up on his phone and they both used it. We spoke for some time and then dropped the call. I was about to take my bath when I heard the doorbell ring. Mary had probably forgotten her key again. I went to open the door and It was Nahlela at the door. She was hold

NahlelaIt was Saturday and I had decided to stay home, clean my house and then cook and relax a bit. Timi had training with the guys and other errands he had to run. I put on the television and the first thing I saw was an advert for sanitary pad. I picked up my phone and checked my calendar. Lo and behold, my period was a couple of days late. No, strike that; It was two weeks late. I started trying to remember all the times I had sex and see where they fell on my calendar, but I had no such luck. I could not remember all the dates. When I finished cleaning the house, I went to the market to buy foodstuff and also some personal items. I went to a medicine store and took five different pregnancy test strips made by five different companies. When I got home, instead of taking the tests immediately, I tried stalling. I put it off for as many hours I could afford but once I was done

Nahlela“I woke up before Timi and I didn't want to disturb him so I quietly tiptoed into the bathroom and took my bath. I was already late for work so I didn't waste time in the bathroom. When I came back to the bedroom, I was surprised to see that Timi was no longer in bed. The dress I had taken didn't need ironing again so I dressed up and tied my braids in a bun. I didn't even bother with make-up, Just wore my shoes and was going to the living room to look for my laptop and notepad to put in my bag and runout when Timi stopped me&Good morning babe&&Good morning & I answered&Trying to sneak past me huh?&& I'm not sneaking. planned on calling you once I got to work&
