"Hair Done, Nails Done, Clothes Ready.. We are so ready to get this diploma." Dera chessed as I made a video of my new hair. My hair was in Fulani Braids using a Darling Brown Attachment."Guyyy, we are graduating sha, what's next for you?" Dera asked excitedly sitting on my bed."Omooo, just rest until NYSC starts. After get my masters done and bag a job." I let out a sigh because I keep asking myself the same question."Me toooo, I'm not sure what I want to do my masters in yet but did I tell you I want to teach?" She said and I looked at with wide eyes shaking my head 'No'."Yeah or I will start a just business. Be a big boss." She added smiling."Period. ""Do you think we will still be close?" She asked with a faint smile."Why won't we? After all the three years of us being together. Times we ate weird combos because we had spent all our money on something stupid. Or when we started that clothing brand and after 2 weeks we stopped because we were lazy---""Ummm you were the one that was lazy I still continued. "She cut me off making me laugh."Point is you are my ride or die, you have been with my through bad times and good times. I love you and I appreciate you for everything you have done for me. So stop all those thoughts. You know you are my G for life. "I said tearing up and a single tear dropped from her eye."I love you too, and you have done a lot for more than you know. I'm sorry for even asking that stupid question. "She smiled clearing the tear that dropped from her eye and also wiping my tears making me chuckle and hug her."Do you remember when we didn't talk for a week because you didn't want me to date that stupid Micheal guy?" Chidera asked reminiscencing."God, I hated that guy. I swear through this 4 years we have dated rubbish guys." I told her and she nodded agreeing."That guy was for the streets and is still for the streets. Can't believe I was a bet and he won sha." She shook her head."How much did he win again?" I asked laying down on my bed."I think 20k, all his 4 friends gave him 5k each. He still watches my stories and likes my posts and comments." She answered."Men are scum, Richard still messages me sef even after I blocked him everywhere." I told her."Can't blame them, look at us." She hyped us twerking a little on the bed. I smiled shaking my head at her."Let's invite Aishat and Temi maybe even your bigheaded friend, Jonathan." Dera said coming back to my room."We can just drink, eat and reminisce then they can sleep over." She added excitedly as if she was already imagining it in her head."Oya naw but Johnathan will definitely not come, I heard there's a party tonight and he has been posting it everyday so that's where he will be." I told her already inviting Aishat and Temi."Okay, let me tell Temi to bring drinks. Because that girl always has alcohol." She chuckled to herself typing on her phone.I viewed a few people's status before standing up to go and arrange for the girl's night.******Later That Night."Okay, I had a sugar daddy, I am virgin, ummmm... I am in a serious relationship,Which is the lie?" Temi stated as we played two truths and one lie.We were sipping a red wine I bought a few days back."You are in serious relationship is the lie." Chidera said waiting for her to say something but Aishat shook her head and said," You are virgin is the lie, I am 1000 percent sure. "She said with her full chest and Temi bursted out laughing."Tiana, how about you? "Temi asked. I shrugged "I think I am going with Aishat."" Why would you guys think I had a sugar daddy? But anyways Aishat is right. "She said sipping her wine laughing."You obviously had a sugar daddy and has. "Chidera said making us all laugh."I swear I am going to miss you guys. " Aishat said tearing up as she still had a year left and she wasn't really close to people in her department."Me too, all of you I don't even know what I am going to do next." Temi spoke sadly."Don't worry when you graduate next year and you are settled down we will have a girl's trip. Maybe go to Maldives or Dubia. "Chidera assured getting excited.I swear she's always excited about everything."I'd like that. Who knows one of us could be getting married around that time" Aishat smiled faintly."Wait, wait, Temi is in a serious relationship? "I said remembering the two truths and one lie.Chidera and Aishat looked at her with wide eyes making her burst out laughing."Yeahrr." She smiled and batting her eyelashes."When? How? Who?" Aishat bombarded her with questions."I will introduce him to you guys soon. You have met him and know him too" She expressed smirking looking at me.Ummm..okay..She had dated a man she was really in love with only to find out he was married, she cried so bad that's when Dera and I first met her."Just tell us who." Chidera stated impatiently."Soon,soon" She said smiling at her."Omoo" Aishat mumbled before laughing."Time for alcohol and dancing pleaseee." Temi went to grab the liquor and I took out my phone connecting it to the speaker playing 'What Type Of Dance Is This By Dj kaywise Zlatan, Mayorkun and Nairamarley.'We danced and shouted, 'WHAT TYPE OF DANCE IS THIS' when it got to the chorus. We ate, had fun and reminiscing on the days spent in this university and glad we were finally graduating."Promise we will continue to be this close no matter where we are." Chidera slurred sticking out her pinky and we pinky promised with Temi and Aishat.I hope we do.Related chapters

GRADUATION DAY"Christiana Peterson" I heard my name announced and, as I walked up to the stage, the crowd erupted in applause. I received my diploma, then paused to smile and wave at Aishat, my other friends, my dad, my aunts, and my cousins. They were beaming with pride, recording and cheering me on.Under the graduation gown, I wore a nude gown and heels. I accessoried with my new Tennis Necklace and a dangling silver earrings to match. I laid my baby hair and Aishat helped me with my make up. Aishat woke us up after we partied last night, she did all three of us make up being that she was a make up artist. "Congratulations my love." Aishat pulled me for a hug."Let me go and look for Chidera." She didn't wait for me to respond before she scurried away."Congratulations big head." I looked up seeing Johnathan.Johnathan and I were course mates, so we were very close from day one in the university. I can say he is one of the best people I met throughout my four years.

Christiana for the magazine while Amanda for the radio tomorrow." Their boss, Ms Funke, assigned. Christiana was happy because over the years after she had completed both her masters and NYSC training, through her family's contacts, they landed her the job.A lot of people just thought of her as a spoilt brat who had zero talent and caused other people who actually deserved it to not get it."Yes ma. "Christiana and Amanda said in unison.The two had gotten really close over their one year and three months in the company. They both got the job through connection so they had to work really hard to prove themselves and yet their co-workers still treated them like shit."So, I heard the man is handsome you know Yoruba Demon and in his late 20's." Amanda informed her happily as they both exited Ms Funke's office."How did you eve

OMNISCIENT POV.Tiana arrived back in her two bed room apartment tired. After interviewing him, she went back to the office to finish editing the interview she had with an actress and another business man. She dropped her bag on the couch then stripped out of her clothes. She went for a cold shower which helped her relax. She was so ready to sleep but she was famished.She wore a big blue shirt she stole from Deji. She went to her fridge looking for what to eat. She didn't have energy to cook anything so just took out a box of cornflakes and poured it into a bowl adding milk,sugar and a glass of water. She ate slowly thinking about her encounter with James earlier.The sound of her phone ringing interrupted her thoughts. She checked the caller ID seeing it was Dera❤️✨ .She smiled answering,Dera-Hey boooo.Her-Business woman, how far?Dera- I'm chilling how are you?Her-Tired and stressed. (She sighed then said)you won't believe who I saw today.Dera-Who? Who?Her- You remember that

Everybody was in the hall discusing, eating and looking around. Christiana, Chidera and Johnathan engaged in a conversation amongst themselves about work, the event and how life has been."I miss Aishat. Every time I call,she's always busy or rushing somewhere or too tired you can hear it from her voice sef." Dera told them and Tiana nodded her head in agreement. "But she told me her parents introduced her to someone so they are going on date soon." Tiana added.Dera's eye lit up in excitement. "You know since her break up with Jonathan,she hasn't dated anyone." Dera said and Tiana hummed while sipping her wine."You guys do know I am here." Johnathan looked between them furrowing his eyebrow."So?" Dera looked at him raising her eyebrow.As they continued discussing, James was interacting with a couple who kept talking about the hotel, how it's going to be success and just kept hyping him up. James just nodded along, smiling but his attention was on Tiana.Everything about her was

Tamara wasn't coming back until Monday, so Christiana decided to cook something.She settled on making White Rice with Fish Stew and Plantain since it was looking like it was about to spoil. She measured the cups, washed the rice, and placed it on the gas stove.As she started cutting the plantain, the electricity supply was cut off, and she realized she had forgotten to buy fuel for her generator. She hissed, going to find their white and orange round bright rechargeable lamp. She placed it on the kitchen counter, continuing what she was doing.Her phone started to ring; she put the plantain in the hot oil and went to the living room to answer her phone. She saw it

"Heyyyyyy," Tamara said excitedly as Tiana entered the apartment. Tiana smiled big, hugging her."I missed you and your cooking," Tiana said, making Tamara laugh."I just knew you couldn't just miss me. Anyways, I made Semo for you already, and the Egusi Soup is in the fridge, so just warm it," Tamara told her.Tiana's eyes lit up, and her mouth watered. "I am so glad you are back.""Yeah, Yeah, my man is coming soon. So let me finish dressing up," she informed, going back to her room.Tiana mumbled, "All of you and your men.""Go and find your own," Tamara retorted from her room, making Tiana roll her eyes as she stripped out of her clothes."So where are you guys going?" She asked, being nosy, coming to Tamara's room in just her a small blue towel."Maybe a restaurant; he just said I should dress fancy," T answered her. She stood up after applying her makeup.She wore a blue tight-fitted gown; it stopped mid-thigh, hugging her curves. She was slim and kind of tall but endowed."Eiii

THAT NIGHT."Like I didn't even know he was going to propose," Tamara told Deji and Tiana, grinning, showing off her diamond ring. Matthew definitely spent a lot on the ring."I am so happy for you," Christiana told her. Deji was also really happy for his younger sister."Mad, so my younger sister is going to get married before I even find a girlfriend," Deji said, shaking his head, making them both laugh.He wasn't seeing anyone now, just talking to different girls. You know guys being guys."So I am going to start preparing for the wedding. Introduction to Traditional to the white wedding," she said, stressing a little."You will be fine; I will be here assisting you," Christiana assured her."Oh, we are going to see mummy this weekend, are you coming?"

She told them yawning.What she didn't know was that after she left the hotel with Chidera earlier, Daniel and James came to the hotel hoping to see them both. Chide

For the past three weeks, James and Tiana have gotten so close. They haven't seen each other in a week because James travelled for a business meeting, so he made sure to call every now and then and their occasionally night calls which they usually had and were having now."Where's your face?" He asked as the call connected only seeing the ceiling."Hey." She smiled showing her bare face. She was wearing a big long grey shirt and black bonnet after finishing her night routine."How was your day?" She asked him adjusting on her bed."Good, just boring meetings. How was yours?" He answered looking at her."Tiring, we are interviewing top 10 most successful bachelors in the country soon. So there's like a lot of preparation for it. "She answered him."I think I am part of it too. Are you interviewing me again? "He asked."No, I am not interviewing anybody. I'm just going to edit.

James asked standing up as soon as the doctor walked towards him.His first child, the twins, Favor, Aunty Ronke and his mother were there with him. They had all come from far and near since it was close to Tiana's due date."Your son is doing well. Here." The nurse handed his new born son to him and everyone instantly fell in love with him."But your wife..." The doctor trailed off making everyone frown.James was in the labour room when Tiana pushed out their son but all of a sudden her blood pressure and her heart rate started to decline so they sent him out of the room."She fell into a coma due to haemorrhagia...." The doctor continued to explain and James sat down slowly and his mum tried to take his son from him but he shook his head. Aunty Ronke started crying and their daughter was confused on why everybody's mood suddenly changed."Where's Mummy?" Their 2-year old asked lowly."She's resting..." Tai

Kehinde has been getting brand deals back to back and she felt like someone who had won a Grammy. Taiwo was planning to travel out after our wedding to further her education.But Tiana and I....well, we haven't exactly been doing well. Even before I proposed, we have had better days. I remember Seun asking me this;"So James what exactly happened between you and my bestie? Cause at a point all of us thought you guys broke up then all of sudden you are proposing and buying her Lamborghini." He said and my friends nodded agreeing."After the rumour of me being with that South African girl, we talk

Aunty Ronke, Tiana and Deji were pissed but completely ignored his presence. Tamara even saw him and acted like she didn't. He was dead to her.Daniel and Doyin were doing okay, except Doyin's normal jealousy fit. Daniel wasn't tripping about it yet, he would happily show her his phone and reassure her. He even bought her a new store for her business on her birthday in March and they both had been traveling around the country and world at large.Mustapha was courting a new Muslim girl he met respectfully while Deji was reluctantly g

TIANA'S POV.28TH DECEMBER(3 DAYS LATER)LONDON,UNITED KINGDOM."Welcome to the UK, ma'am." A white man dressed in a black suit like in the movies said with his strong British accent as I walked towards him rolling my box. He held my name and I frowned a bit expecting to see Olamide or someone I knew."Thank you." I said lowly entering a white Mercedes-Benz. I adjusted my joggers and fixed my hoddie properly sighing.MY SUGAR 😋♥️Have you arrived?Did you see the man I sent?I just landed a few minutes ago.Kehinde💞Hey b, how u doing???Brother Mide said you were coming today💃Have you arrived??Lmk when you do.I have a surprise for you ♥️I'm just so excited to see youuuu!I chuckled reading her messages then replied;I'm excited to see you too.I just arrived and have absolutely no idea where I am going to.So I will call you when I settle in."First time in the UK,Miss Peterson?"

"Good evening ma." Tiana knelt down greeting her very aged grandmother who sat with her uncles and aunts from her dad's side."How are you? We heard what happened to you." Aunty Ajoke asked her softly and Tiana smiled a little.The news about their kidnapping was all over social media. They weren't able to get the full information about what happened so they left vague descriptions on what happened on the news and on blogs. Even people at work were attempting to ask her about it, but fell back."Good afternoon grandma." Jasmine said interrupting any further interrogations about the whole matter.Everyone had been trying to talk to Tiana about it but she had barely spoken to anybody including James. This was like how she was after her parents died, maybe because of how scared she was when she saw the bullet graze James'arm.The only time she talked was to make sure everybody was fine. James,Tamara, Deji and Mustapha were who she was worried about when she heard gun shots. One hit James

"Any News?" James asked Doyin handing her a cup of Nescafe Coffee and she shook her head 'No'. She had been crying all night long just waiting for an update.Rose, Seun, Mustapha, James had been here since around 3am, the same time she called Tiana informing her."I called Tiana like around 5 hours ago and she said she was on her way but I haven't heard anything from her yet." Doyin said lowly."I was even about to ask about her too, try calling her." Seun told Rose. She quickly did that and no answer."She's not answering." Rose told them and James furrowed his eyebrow bringing out his phone."Go and check Folake's house real quick. Check if her car is still there and just knock on her door." He instructed his driver who immediately went to do just that.He just wanted to make sure she was okay since crazy things were happening. Daniel and Doyin were on their way back from picking up a food delivered from midnight chow. They were crossing the empty road holding hands talking about t

Look at all everything James got for her, do you think anybody will ever do all that for you? Let's not even mention the way Daniel was dancing with Doyin. You need to deal with this people.""For your information, James actually invited me to Abuja with them but I declined. Daniel and Doyin will be handled." I told her cleaning my eyes."What about my Jamezie?"
