“Three million?!”“What why?! Is it too small?!” The guy asked leaning in towards her.“That’s about all the money I have left with me,” she murmured in reply.“Are you interested in finding him or not?! Soooner or later you’ll have to pay this money because you can’t see him for free, booking and reservation fee has to be made,”“And with the way things are increasing in the country you might have to pay more if you delay,” he said to her and she exhaled deeply.“Okay fine, you’re sure you’ll get me to meet with him?!” “Why not! With immediate alacrity! Once I get the payment I’ll arrange the meeting and even pay for your transport to him!” He said and she nodded slowly.“Okay fine!” She murmured.“Cash or transfer?!” He asked a small smile touching his lips, she just opened her purse and handed him all the dollar bill she had in her purse.“Okay good!” He said with a small smile as he counted the money she gave him, it was eight hundred dollars, he folded it neatly and placed it in
Meanwhile ….Nimi packed in front of Debbie’s house, he stepped out of the car, rounded it quickly and opened the door for her.Debbie was Tolu’s friend that she had set him up with, they just had dinner and he was dropping her off and so far so good, her company had been nice.“Thank you,” she said with a wide smile as she took his hand and stepped out of the car.“I enjoyed myself today, thank you for going out with me,” she said with a small smile, and she nodded slowly.“I had fun also,” he replied, she was beautiful also, she had a fair and flawless caramel skin, she was nice and she spoke eloquently too, but the only thing was that she wasn’t Jenna.He gently stepped forward deciding to take the bull by the horn, Tolu was right he need to move forward, he gently placed tucked her hair behind her ear and pulled her close to him, slowly he bent to her height and slammed his lips on hers.He tried to muster feeling but none came, it was just bland, she definitely wasn’t Jenna but
Next day ….Canada …..“Jeremy what’s going on with Jenna?! It’s been four days nobody has heard from her ! Are you sure you haven’t either?!” Quinn asked in a small growl rolling her eyes at him, she still hated his guts and hated him more for the mere fact that he enabled Jenna to go to Canada alone with informing anyone or without their joint efforts.They were actually on a group video call, Darrell slowly placed his hands on her thighs and rubbed it slowly, trying to tell her to calm down.“I promise it was only the day she arrived I spoke to her, I haven’t been able to get through to her since then,”“Well you caused this nonsense,” she snapped and Annabeth finally cleared her throat.“Don’t get too bothered,” she said to her.“How can I not get too bothered, she’s there all alone in a strange land with no help! And worse we can’t get across to her!”“What were you thinking letting her do this huh!” “What did you guys think would be the result!” She yelled.“Relax Quinn, I’m s
Minutes Later …Nimi and Jenna sat side by side on the bench outside the restaurant, their hands were folded across their chest and their legs folded on each other as they stared into space quietly.“I’m guessing, somehow you read my letter,” Nimi said finally breaking the icy silence.“ I’m sorry Nimi,” she finally said as she uncrossed her legs and turned to face him.“Sorry for what exactly?!” He muttered in reply his gaze still not meeting hers.“Sorry for not trusting me?! Or sorry for not listening to me, sorry for getting rid of me and getting married to Jeremy right after?!” He added as his eyes slowly made his way towards her face.“You have all right to be angry Nimi, I don’t want to say I understand how you must have felt because I don’t ,”“I regretted my decision with every fiber of being in me Nimi, I shouldn’t have behaved so irrationally !” She said and he nodded slowly.“I hurt you Nimi and I’m sorry, I hope you find a place in your heart to forgive me,” she said and
“I don’t like her for you!”“And when have I said I want to be with her again?! I’m willing to listen to you and Tolu, you’re right Loving her had cost me a lot,” he said.“At the risk of your own happiness?! You don’t have to say anything to me Nimi, it’s written all over your face, you’re still inlove with her,” she said to him and his shoulders slowly slumped and his head curved downwards.“Why Nimi?! Why did you chose such a painful love,” she whispered.“What then do you want from me !” He muttered resignately.“I want to see you happy, I want you to look at your wife the way you look at Jenna, and you have never looked at Debbie this way,”“As much as I don’t like her for you, I don’t want you unhappy,” she said, just as he was about to reply, her phone began to ring and it was a video call from Tolu.“Mom have you heard what your son has been up to recently, can you believe that white girl is in the country and he picked her over me!” Tolu ranted as soon as the call got connect
He slowly broke off the kiss and he looked up at her, Jenna didn’t waste time in slamming her lips back on his, he moved her closer to himself as he deepened the kiss and took charge.He stood up from the chair and carried her in his arms as they continued kissing all the way to his room.Immediately they got to the room he placed her on the bed and knelt in front of her, “Never you consider leaving me again!” He muttered as he slowly unbuttoned her pyjamas.“I can’t think straight when you’re close,” he muttered as he gently took her top off and her body came bare before him, he resumed kissing her as he gently laid her on the bed not breaking off the kiss, Jenna moaned as his arms roamed her body and her hands slowly made its way to unbuttoning his shirt also.*****The sun rays filtered in through the window, Jenna squinted her eyes in her sleep before they finally fluttered open.She looked beside her and the other side of the bed was empty, her face reddened as she pushed the du
“What gave you the right Tolu, who exactly do you think you are to pull that rubbish stunt on me!” Nimi growled, Becky stood up at once and walked towards her children.“What’s going on Nimi, tell me what happened!” She said, Nimi slowly took his eyes off Tolu and it landed on their mother.“Can you believe she actually paid Debbie to go out with me!” He yelled his veins nearly popping out.“Haba! Tolu!” Becky exclaimed as she turned to look at her.“Was that how horrible I looked to you! I told you to trust me that I had everything under control,” he spat angrily.“And then you went ahead to pay someone to go out with me?! For what?! As what!”“You paid someone to go out with me?! The more I think about it the more annoyed I get! To think that I was even worried and felt guilty for Debbie and then I find out she wasn’t really into me!”“What if I had fallen in love with her?!”“I was just trying to help,” Tolu retorted.“You look like you needed company, I just wanted to help you!”
“Oh my God,” Jenna exhaled deeply as she walked towards her room and pulled the door open, Nimi quickly reached forward and pulled her back,“What are you doing?!” He asked pulling her close to himself and closed the door behind her.“Going to my room, what’s going on,” she whispered looking at him so lost.“What happened to staying with me in my room,” he whispered and her lips slowly curved into a smile realization dawning on her.“You’re a bad boy,” she whispered and he laughed as he slowly took her lips in a kiss and they made their way towards his room in a zigzag unsteady motion.“I could kiss you all day,” he whispered to her as soon as they got into his room, and she chuckled as they disengaged from the kiss.“It’s so nice to finally be in your family’s good book,” she said and he smiled, “Oh, you’re not very difficult to like, you eventually charmed them, I saw that coming,” he replied and she released a small laugh.“It didn’t quite seem like that two days ago though,” she
