It had been two weeks since I had contact with anyone other than my cousin Louis and my best friend Tanna. Aminu had tried getting in contact with me and so did Lanre and Tayo but I resolved to blocking them all for the moment. I hated what I was doing but I wasn't ready to face anyone yet.
Today was the first day in two weeks that I was going in to work. I had been working from home so as to not piss the board and my aunt, but I just didn't want any human contact. Up until this moment I still felt very horrible about what happened at the launch.
Aminu had come to my house multiple times each day to see if I would talk to him, even Tanna begged me to see him but I refused. I wasn't ready to listen to him without screaming at him. I sat at my table in the office looking affectionately at the ring on my finger. I still hadn't taken it off. I couldn't bring myself to do

AminuI was devastated. I could barely sleep or eat knowing that my fiancée wasn't speaking to me. I hadn't seen or spoken to her in two weeks and Louis was not helping matters at all. He never allowed me close to her, talking about 'you weren't loyal to her'.I knew very well that it looked bad, what I did. But I had an explanation that apparently nobody wanted to hear. I took a large gulp of the whiskey in my glass and poured myself another one, taking a large drag off the cigar in between my fingers. This was what I had resorted to in order to ease the pain of my love being far away from me.I looked fondly at the bracelet on my wrist which had her name on it. I bled in my heart about this scenario we were in at the moment. I had lost count of the many bouquets I had sent to her house and office everyday for the past two weeks with no response back.

Aminu"Here, got this for you" I said giving my lover the gift I bought for her. She reluctantly took it, looking at me skeptically."I hope you didn't go spending millions on this, I'll just cry." She said and I laughed."No no. Just open it baby" I said smiling at her.She opened the long and slim box to reveal a silver necklace with a sapphire pendant. Her jaw dropped."Aww this is so pretty" she said gushing over it. I knew she would think it was expensive. It actually wasn't, well not by my own standards anyway."Babe. These look like diamonds" she said giving me a look while inspecting the chain."Yeah.. um they are actually. The blue sapphire in the middle is your birthstone." I said trying to spare myself the lecture that was coming. She had told me before to tone down the expensive gifts for now when she foun

ZaraIt was the weekend and Aminu and I decided to spend it together in his house. Especially since I would soon be living with him as his wife, it would be good to get to know the house and get acquainted with it.I was currently in the kitchen whipping up an Igbo delicacy for him. I was making Ugba (shredded oil bean) with goat meat and Palm wine for him. I had gotten the palm wine from a vendor here in Lagos who had so many good reviews. This was the very first time I was cooking for him so I wanted it to be sumptuous.I was already in the final stages of preparing the meal when i felt a set of powerful arms wrap around my waist."Mmm. That smells lovely baby." He said and kissed my neck."Thank you. Wait until you taste it." I said, trying to ignore the things that Aminu's touch and kisses were doing to my body.He bit my ear and whispered "what if I want

Zara"Mm this is delicious. You know, I've never had this dish even though my mother is Igbo. She's more gourmet than anything else. But this is spectacular. I've been missing a lot..." Aminu complimented, but all I could think about was the anxiety associated with the fact that Aminu's mother was coming to town soon and I would soon meet her.Contrary to what people thought, I wasn't not very excited to meet her as the scenes with me and the rest of Aminu's family members weren't very delightful or pleasant. Meeting her might very well solidify the fact that none of them would accept me. Well I still was not sure where I stood with his father. That was also a problem."Baby.. Zara" Aminu tapped and called before my mind came back from wonderland."Oh, sorry what were you saying" I said blinking rapidly. I didn't know what he said beyond missing a lot."I was saying how I love th

ZaraWhat was she doing here? I was already very relieved that my prospective mother in law was being super nice to me and now my nightmare on legs walks in? Was this a curse or what?Aminu's mother also looked disturbed. Lakisha was probably a known problematic figure."Well, what an awesome surprise" Aminu's mother said."Hi mom" Lakisha said walking towards us. I looked at Aminu who looked very pissed. He seemed like he was giving his sister a warning through his eyes.Lakisha walked up to us and gave her mother a hug. "Hi bro," she said, not bothering to hug him or acknowledge me. It was expected though since she had made it abundantly clear that she didn't like me."What are you doing here Kiki you didn't tell me you were coming," Aminu's mother said looking very worried. Something wasn't right."Well, am I not allowed to come see my

AminuI immediately pulled over because I was literally seeing red. Zara had just told me that she saw a resemblance with my son and Patrick? Patrick?? I was livid, why would she ever think that."Aminu why'd you pull over" she said with surprise."What the fucking hell are you talking about?" I yelled. I was glad I didn't use my driver today. This was a very private conversation.She closed her eyes and sighed "I.. I haven't been able to look at that boy closely but today, I saw his face very well. I had a good two minutes to look and him properly and thank God that your family compound is bright at night. Try picturing Nasir's face beside Patrick's" she explained.I almost got angry at her but then again, she may have a point. I didn't need anyone to tell me that Zara is literally the most observant person I'd ever seen and very smart as well. Most of her words were accurate. An

ZaraTayo and Tiara's wedding, tagged The T2 Affair was just a few days away and we were getting prepared for it like our lives depended on it, mostly because of Tiara's crankiness and perfectionist attitude. Tanna was fed up but I really didn't mind. I hadn't started planning my own wedding but who knew I could be worse.Aminu was actually better now than few weeks ago when I told him about the resemblance between Patrick and Jasmine. He told me that he managed to get a few strands of hair from Nasir and would proceed to getting a test done on them both and also I advised him to get them to check if they were related in any other way. This was to be sure if Patrick was the father of that child.I went into the Matopeda stall where Anita, Tanna and Tiara were already waiting for me. I came in late because Aminu came to my office in need of a quickie which was enjoyable but the stunts he pulled sometimes were very

Zara."So Lakisha..." I said but was abruptly cut off"Kiki.. please call me kiki" Lakisha interrupted and I smiled."Kiki it is.." I said and she continued eating "why didn't you like me at first. Is it just what Jasmine told you or something else.""Well, partly what Jazz said about you but more like, I didn't really know much about you prior to that so I actually thought your intentions weren't pure. She also made it seem as though you were stopping Aminu from coming close to his son." She said.I smiled "well, Aminu and I don't even discuss Jasmine and Nasir. Some times he talked about Nasir but never Jasmine except she did something. And I don't control Aminu. He's a man that handles his business his way. I don't meddle even when he involves me." I said and continued with my food. I just had to clarify things with her so that

Aminu. Previously... "Ma'am this is from Mr Garba" he said and gave me a card. "What's that?" Tanna asked. I opened it and smiled "aww it's a note" "Aww. Read it out" she said. So curious for gossip. I giggled. "To my Angel Wife, I remember the day we met. It was then that I knew that I wouldn't let you slip through my fingers. At first sight I knew that you were the one for me. I didn't care about anything else other than being with you from that moment. I just knew I wanted to see you happy. The love I feel for you is strong and eternal. My Queen, you are the light in my life, the air in my lungs. You give me purpose in every way and I am so happy you agreed to be with me forever.

Zara Previously... "Sorry ma'am I didn't wasn't to keep you waiting so I had to let you in before they were done." Atafo apologised. "There's no need to apologise. I don't mind" I shrugged. Tanna who had been silent all along tapped me pointing at an armless gown she seemed to like. "That's a really cool design." Tanna said. "Feel free to move around and choose. I'll be waiting for what you decide. You can also have this notepad to write down your thoughts." He said and gave us a notepad. We began our search. The gowns on display were all breathtakingly gorgeous. I was so shook at what Atafo could actually do with those hands of his. I Was already imagining what my wedding dress would look like. "So do you have anything in mind?" Tanna asked me. "Yeah I have an idea of what I want. I want an armless dr

Zara Previously... "Do you miss Greece? We could go back soon if you want." He said taking my hand across the table. "Yeah but we will plan it this time Mimi. No surprises." I warned and he sat up, putting his hand on his chest. "Promise ma'am" he said. "Good. So what are we eating, I'm hungry." I said and took the menu. The dinner date was really fun. We had laughs and talked about everything. Also gossiped about a few of our friends. We basically dissected everything while violating table manners. But we didn't care. Once we were done with our three course meal of exquisite delicacies, as of on cue, music started to play. One of my favorite songs at the moment. Odo by Johnny Drille. "Can I have this dance ma cherie" Aminu held his hand out smiling while I laughed at something he had said earlier.

Zara. Previously... When the police man had chained him to the table and left, Patrick started laughing. "What's funny" I said frowning. "You know, I never ever thought that I would ever see you again in my life" Patrick said, still chuckling. "Well, one last time wouldn't hurt. I used to consider you my friend." I said and folded my arms. "I used to be in love with you you know. Or should I say, infatuated." Patrick said and chuckled. It seemed as though he was finding himself amusing. "I know that" I said. I surprising was not feeling any emotions right now towards him. Everything was well and okay. He didn't disgust me the way Jasmine seemed to. "Yeah and you know I didn't intend to shoot you. I'm really sorry." He said. "I just hope you don't hate me" "I don't Patrick. Have y

Zara Previously... The judge was rested back in his chair, but his face held shock and fear. Probably fear for knowing someone like Jasmine. Aminu who was sat beside me had become furious again and I stroked his arm to calm him which he was responding to well. The silence in the room was deafening for a few seconds before the judge finally spoke again. "Wow, officers, I don't know what you people are waiting for. Cuff her immediately." He said with venom in his voice. The policemen who were stationed in the courtroom went forward and cuf

Zara Previously... Your honor, my client is not guilty of the allegations on him. First of all, this child is legally his son which means he had all the right to have the boy in his custody however, the way it is being narrated is not how it happened. My client went to the Plaintiff's apartment which in his magnanimity he had given her, only to realize that she had run away from the house along with all her belongings leaving just the boy, the nanny and a letter confessing all her crimes against Mr Garba here. My client having a good heart, took the boy into his home even after finding out that the boy is not his. So your honor, this whole case is a lie and shouldn't even have been a case in the first place." My lawyer said and sat down. "Objection my Lord! There is no evidence to back his claim" Jasmine's attorney said.

Aminu. Previously... Almost a week had passed and it was finally the day that we would stand trial with the arbitrator. Aminu had pushed for it because he didn't want the stupid case to taint his brand which was the wise thing to do. The arbitrator would essentially keep everything on a low and not attract press to it. Or so I thought. I hadn't spoken to Aminu even after Tanna's intervention. Now I was ready and I was going to surprise him at the arbitrator's office. There was no way I would leave him to do this alone. I didn't tell Louis because his big mouth would tell Aminu in a heart beat. On getting to the venue for the trial, contrary to my belief, there was a swarm of press people with microphones and cameras at the doors to the building. What the hell? Who told them where it would be. I decided to hide and slip in undetected. I met a secur

Zara. Previously... "Yeah I get it. It's very nice of her though" I said and sighed, rubbing my eyes. "I really miss Zara. And Nas has been crying, he wants to see her. I'm always scared of going home to him because he'll start hounding me with questions and crying again." I said rubbing my face in frustration thinking about how sad Nasir was that Zara wasn't there. "Did he do that when he was brought to your house in the first place. Like did he cry about Jasmine?" Louis with his nosiness asked. "Not at all. It was like he didn't know the difference. Nasir for her was always a tool to use to get what she wanted so I believe they didn't have much of a relationship with each other." I said and sipped my usual glass of whiskey. "Don't worry, she'll come around" he said and his eye twitched. That was something I learnt over the years to look out for if Louis

Aminu. Previously... "Both you and Jasmine will rot in prison, I will make sure of that" I said, gritting my teeth. Anger rose in me and I had to fight of the urge to get my hands around his throat and kill him there and then. But then I had to allow the law take its course and Zara.. she wouldn't be happy with my line of action. "I've accepted my fate brother. I wish I did things better. I probably would get a life sentence or worse, be executed which I'll prefer because a life sentence is a fate worse than death. I have never asked you for anything before but I will do it now because this is a mutual need. Make sure Jasmine goes to jail or dies. That is my only wish." He said this time looking me in the eye. "That's easy. And for what it's worse. If you hadn't betrayed me and had told me about the fact that we were brothers from the onset, I would have accepted you with all the joy in the w
