The next day, Brian woke up early and stood at the window, waiting for Gabrielle. He was yet to dress up for work.

His friend slept in his girlfriend's lodge, so he was all alone fantasizing about a beautiful future with Gabrielle.

He frowned when he saw Mike walking towards Anarchy lodge. He knew where he was going.

After some minutes, Gabrielle and Mike came out again, holding each other. Brian kept smiling as he stared at her. When they had gone out of sight, he felt like coming out of the room to see her more.

Mike and Gabrielle parted ways when they got to the school block. Gabrielle headed towards Hall B for her General studies.

Agatha had already secured a comfortable space for both of them. She waved at Gabrielle when she saw her approaching the hall. Gabrielle grinned and began to walk in her direction.

"Hi, Aga," Gabrielle smirked before sitting on the chair. She was surprised her friend was not smiling. "Babe, what's up?" She asked.

"Honestly, I don't like what

    "Hei, Mike," G-boy called, running towards him. Mike halted and waited for him. "How far buddy?" Mike asked with a handshake. "I see you have finally got the girl. Anyway, I trust you. You are the 'ladies' man'. G-boy teased looking at Gabrielle that took another direction. Mike grinned. "To be honest with you, I love this girl like hell!" "How about Jane, what are you going to do to her?" G-boy asked. "G-boy, I trust you, please do not share this information with anyone. Jane has spies everywhere and I don't want her to harm the girl." "You have my words buddy, so what is going on?" G-boy asked. "I want to marry that girl and I must stop at nothing. I'm ready to ruin the career of anyone that would come in between us, not even her best friend." "Easy buddy, it hasn't come to that yet. Don't ruin anyone's career, please. What are you going to do to Jane now you have gotten this one?" G-boy asked. "Nothing, I need her until I get a job to take care of the only girl I ha

    Mike waited behind after the evening game. He wanted to see Brian and issue his last warning before going down to his lodge. He walked into a store that was close to the shelter at the bus stop. Mike checked his wristwatch, it was almost 8:PM but there was no sign of Brian. Just as he was about to go, he saw him shaking hands with his friends. Mike quickly ran to him and pushed him. Brian staggered and turned. He was surprised. His friends were surprised too. "Dateless love!" Mike yelled at him. "This is your last warning. Stay off, my woman! I swear to God, I'm going to make sure you disappear from this state if I ever see you close to her again. Try me and see!" Mike yelled. Brian's friends were surprised he just stood there staring at Mike. He did not attempt to fight back. Mike took a few steps backward as he continued pointing at him. "Dateless love?" One of Brian's friends said and his friends laughed at him. Brian sighed and sat with his friends. "The name is quite g

"Good morning," Amanda, the caretaker's daughter, greeted Warlick who was sitting on a long chair that was in front of the lodge, staring at Gabrielle. Warlick beckoned the young girl and whispered into her ear. She grinned and began to walk toward Gabrielle. "Good morning, auntie." Gabrielle turned and smiled when she saw a young girl offering her shy smile. "Uncle Manga wants to see you," she said in a lower tone. Gabrielle's eyes widened. She looked around but did not see Brian anywhere. "Where is he?" She asked. "Come with me." Gabrielle walked behind Amanda as she led her to the room where Brian was. Brian quickly hid behind the door when she saw them coming towards the room. She wondered what Amanda told Gabrielle. The young girl pointed at a flowered curtain. Gabrielle grinned and walked into the

    A call came in on Gabrielle's new phone. The phone was a birthday gift from Mike. She quickly accepted the incoming call immediately. "Gabrielle, where are you?" A male voice screamed on the phone. Gabrielle quickly stood up. "I'm in the school," she responded panting as though she ran a marathon. "Mike and Manga got into a fight and …..and…." "And what!! Gabrielle screamed, putting her hand on her chest. "Mike is unconscious! We are on our way to the hospital." "Which hospital!" "General Hospital," the voice replied. Gabrielle took her books and walked swiftly away, wiping tears off her eyes as she ran towards the second gate. Her friend ran after her. They ran into the hospital's reception and were directed to the accident and emergency unit. Gabrielle could not believe her eyes. She kept wiping tears that flew down her cheeks. "What happened?" She asked G-boy who stood behind the bed, staring at Mike who was breathing with the aid of oxygen. "He simply asked him a

    "I don't want them to strip you before my friends," Gabrielle said, leaning on his chest. "Don't worry, everything will be alright. I don't think they would ask me to strip before your friends. Relax, let's enjoy ourselves. I'm glad yours is over. I'm not worried about mine, I can handle it," Mike said, giving her a gap toothed grin. They walked back to the hall and sat on their chairs as the dance continued. "Game number two: 'let's get him out of his clothes,' Parker announced. He turned and gestured Mike to the chair at the center of the hall. He patted Gabrielle's shoulder gently and walked to the chair. Mike sat on the chair and crossed his legs. Parker signaled him to stand. He grinned and stood up. Soft music ushered two female strippers in. They danced their way to him. They began to take his clothes off in a sexy way. He was left with his blue boxers. He looked at Parker and made eye contact with a grin. "Wait girls," Parker said. "Tease him, once you see a bulge i

    Brian lifted her face and brushed his lips against hers. Slowly, he gently covered her mouth. He was surprised Gabrielle responded to his kiss with reckless abandon. The touch of his lips gave her a delicious sensation she hadn't felt and she vowed to explore it to the last since she was still single. Gabrielle held his head firmly as he continued devouring her lips. Soon she was overtaken by wild desire. Brian pulled the towel she had on her chest, freeing her breasts. He squeezed them simultaneously with his cold palm, sending her overboard. Slowly, he lowered her down on the bed, locking his gaze with hers. Gabrielle began to twist her waist when his tongue began to explore his breasts and other parts of her body. She pulled him closer and unbuttoned his shirt hurriedly. Brian came down from the bed and stood still, staring at her as she breathed heavily craving for him, her impatience growing to explosive proportions. He slowly unfastened his belt and pulled his trousers off.

    "You will forever remain in my heart, Gabby. My love for you is dateless…Brian." Gabrielle read out loud. She fixed her eyes on the inscription and tears began to drop from her eyes. "He is in love with you? Gabby, I thought he is gay!" Agatha said. "He is not!" Gabrielle replied with a tears smothered voice. "Everything is becoming clearer now! Mike knows he is in love with me, that was why he insulted his mother. He wanted him out of the state. You know, I kept wondering why they sent me to his house before the cops. Now I know why." "Why?" "My presence weakened him, he couldn't run. They used me." "Who are they?" "Mike and his friend." "Mike loves you and did everything possible to make you his. That's the definition of true love. If Brian had loved you as he claims, he would have fought for what he loves." "He thinks I won't look at him again if he had told me how he feels just like I kept my mouth shut too because I thought he was gay." "Well, Gabby, it's too late no

    Gabrielle was awoken by the constant buzzing of her phone. She sighed and rolled over. Her husband traveled out of the country last week and they were expecting him that day. He pulled the phone closer and stared at the caller, it was Agatha, her best friend. She reluctantly picked up the call. Agatha had never failed to call her since she put to bed six weeks ago. "Gabby, your baby's picture is garnering attention on social media. You need to add your maiden name to your name. Felicia…you remember her right?" Agatha asked. "Yes," Gabrielle responded with a low tone. She could not believe her friend woke her up because of her baby's pictures she uploaded on social media. "She said our friends have a group chat but no one knows your whereabouts. Please add your maiden so they will find you. Do it now and call me back," Agatha said and hung up. Gabrielle added her maiden name just as her friend suggested and tossed the phone aside. She stood up and checked the time, it was a few mi

She couldn't believe Brian remembered her birthday. She didn't remember telling him anyt

    "Do you remember the first day we met?" Brian asked, staring into her eyes. Gabrielle nodded with a smile. "I fell in love with you that day, but I felt we will never be together. Mike was very smart and intelligent. He figured out I'm in love with you and called me dateless love.""Dateless as in timeless?""He meant I would never date you. You are beyond my league.""I never knew how much I loved you until I watched the cops take you away. My heart broke into pieces. I cried, but you didn't notice. "I did and I felt bad. I would have avoided the fight.""What happened when you left?" Gabrielle asked. "I was detained and set free after some days. I had no money to clear the outrageous hospital bills Mike's family gave me, I had to sell the land. I regretted not selling it earlier and established myself. When I remembered the business I ventured into was your idea, I knew everything happened at the right time. I wouldn't have invested the money wisely if I hadn't met you.""Which i

    Mr. Ruben walked into Brian's office when he closed work for the day. He saw their boss leaning on his desk and Gabrielle crouching on his side. He frowned but tried to conceal his disappointment. He wanted Gabrielle desperately. "Sir, here are the account details you requested," he said dropping a file on the desk and walking slowly away. "Momi, let's go home," he muttered, planting a kiss on her forehead. Gabrielle picked up her handbag and began to leave the office. Brian held her hand. "We are going out together," he grinned. His seductive smile hadn't changed a bit "Gabby, you are extremely persistent, I'm not letting you out of my sight." Brian held her hand as he walked to his car. The company's chauffeur had positioned the car, waiting for him. "I want to get my bag.""Where is it?" He asked. "At the logistics office.""We are going to pick it up on our way out. Hop in Let's go."Rita entered the passenger's side, Brian and Gabrielle entered the rear side. Brian pulled Ga

    Gabrielle alighted hurriedly when the cab she boarded pulled over in front of her apartment. She did want Brian to come after her. She ignored all the surprised eyes that were staring at her and began to pack a few of her and her baby's things. "Talk to me, Gabby, what happened?" Agatha held her bag. "Agatha, please…""Do you think I'll let you walk out of that door without telling me what happened?" Agatha asked. Gabrielle took the baby and began to dress him up. "I saw his father," she whimpered. "I'm booking a same-day flight to Pretoria. Phillip has been begging me to marry him, I think I'm ready to marry him," Gabrielle said. "Whose father?" Agatha asked. "Brian's father.""Whoo!" Agatha screamed happily. "Finally!" Agatha continued screaming. Gabrielle ignored her and lifted her baby and began to walk towards the door. "Wai..wai…wait! Are you running away from the man you have been searching for for the past two years? You are so difficult Gabrielle!" "He is married an

    Gabrielle went to work very early the next day, ready for her boss. She switched her system on and began to work. Two company security men walked into her office without knocking. Gabrielle shot them a cold stare and understood something was amiss. "You are invited to a disciplinary hearing in the boss's office," they announced. Gabrielle stood up immediately and followed them. The members of the board were already there waiting for her. She greeted them and gestured to a chair. Mr. Ruben listed all the policies she had violated so far, and none of them were true. Gabrielle tried to defend herself, but the board members did not believe her. She was given a six months suspension without salary. According to the board members, the company was newly established and couldn't afford to pay workers who were suspended. Gabrielle picked up her things and left the company with tears in her eyes. Six months of living without a monthly salary was very difficult for Gabrielle and her son. P

    Gabrielle and Phillip had been knocking on the main gate of their house, but no one responded. She sat down at the foot of the gate and continued dialing her brother's number. "Joe, open the gate, I have been knocking for ages. Gabrielle said as soon as her brother picked up the phone. "Dad is with the key. There is nothing I can do," Joe whimpered. "Why are you whimpering, is he there?" Gabrielle asked. "Yes""Move away from there and talk to me.""Gabby, there is nothing I can do. He is with the key and he knows you are knocking.""Where does he expect me to go?""To hell!" Mr. Williams roared and the call disconnected. Gabrielle's frustration was apparent. She couldn't believe her family had decided to throw away the baby and the bathing water. Her father did not care about safety anymore. "Come with me, I'll bring you back tomorrow morning," Phillip said, squatting before her. Gabrielle nodded and stood up. She had no options, so she stood and walked towards the car. The ne

    "Good evening, dad," Gabrielle whimpered when she got closer to her dad. Mr. Williams ignored her and fixed his eyes on a newspaper he was reading. Gabrielle stood still and waited for his response, but all to no avail. Since the news of her pregnancy got to all the members of the family, they had been treating her like an outcast who brought nothing but a disgrace to her family. Her mom hardly responded to her greetings too. She wanted to rent an apartment and move out of her sister's house, but she did not have enough money to move.Gabrielle left her dad and walked into the building, wiping tears that were dripping through her eyes. Her younger brother screamed and gave her a warm embrace when she walked into the family's lounge. "Gabby, you took us unawares. Danielle called this afternoon, she never told us you were coming," Joseph, her immediate younger brother said with a smile. "I wanted to spend some time here, but with dad's attitude, I'm going to leave as soon as I'm thr

    Mike took a deep breath as he began to dial the number. He was surprised when Agatha's name pop up. Mike looked at the phone number again, it was the same number he had been calling since he alighted from the school bus. He gave out a long sigh. He could not believe the caretaker sold Agatha's number to him for such an outrageous amount. Mike continued staring at the phone number written in Gabrielle's handwriting. He carefully folded the paper and dipped it into his pocket. "Hi, Mike," Agatha said as soon as she picked up the phone. "Is she there with you?" "No," Agatha muttered quietly. "She has gone. Did you forget the time I told you?" "No, but …never mind" "Mike we are friends, talk to me," Agatha said. Mike took a deep breath and rested his head on his palm. "Mike!""I had a little fight with Jane. She delayed me.""I'm so sorry. She gave the caretaker her phone number, I memorized it.
