2024-10-29 19:42:56I got to the hospital about an hour after my discussion with Tomi, even though it was rush hour, Stella moved Ivy to a hospital that was on the island instead of mainland so she could easily access Ivy. The traffic on the island is better that the one on the mainland, the one of third mainland bridge was the worst.
“Thank God you are here.” Ivy cried out when she saw me. “Can you please take Stella away from me before I press my call button to tell the nurses that Stella is disturbing me? She is practically dead on her feet.”
“I need to make sure that you are okay.” Stella voiced but Ivy shook her head.
“You need to take care of yourself and stop feeling guilty. It wasn’t your fault.” Ivy said to Stella taking a hold of her hand.
“Yes it is. You were raped because I left you alone, if I was around this wouldn’t have happened.” Stella protested.
“And if I had done wha

My days flew by between ending my internship, taking care of Ivy, meeting up with my lawyers, getting security personnel to protect Ivy and preparing everything for me to equip myself with when I go to A.I. Andrews International, the base for all my family ventures, my family legacy, a legacy which some bastard was slowly running to the ground.As soon as Ivy came home… well Kola place, I started to go over the documents I requested from the company, someone has been siphoning from the company and running the company to the ground. After a week of explaining to Kevin why I had to go, getting extra documents to read, reacquainting myself with the law firm that handles my family business and making sure that Ivy is on the road to healing from the incident and being fine. Kevin promised to cover up for my missing days at Internship from my university and I still have a month to go before we end first semester and second semes
MY PERFECT MATCH Boss lady.
The next day started out well, I got to Ikeja with Ivy and a body guard. We marched to the top floor where the emergency board meeting was holding.“Who are you people and what are you doing here?” the manager of one of the dying sub company under A.I. started to say, already calling security.“Sit down, face your front and don’t get on our nerves.” Ivy replied him with a sweet smile that didn’t get well with her hard tone. The girl and her mixed signals are legendary. The man did what she asked before he even realize it, he was one of the persons who will be given sack letters to later in the day.“Who are you people?” another asked, this one more respectful and closer to our age, I narrowed my eyes at him because I didn’t see his information on our employee database.“What’s your name?” I asked him as I took a seat at the head of the table while Ivy turned off the projector and pla
MY PERFECT MATCH Birthday girl
I woke up the next day around 3 am to get ready so I can beat the morning traffic when Kola informed me that I was not going anywhere.“Are you serious right now?” I demanded from him as he nodded and held me closer.“Deadly, Ivy will go to the office along with Kelvin, God knows she has a lot of drama to dish out to keep everybody on their toes, she will then go to NTA news station to talk about the changes going on in A.I. in your place while you will keep your butt in one place and let me spoil you on your birthday. Tomorrow you can continue as planned.” Kola sleep filled voice rumbled behind me as I turned to face him.“So you are just going to keep making plans for me and in your small brain, you actually think I will just stay here and take the orders you dish out shey?” I gripes as the idiot just laughed at my words.“See who is
MY PERFECT MATCH Tomi pov.
I think I have fucked up, I chose the wrong brother. It isn’t supposed to be like this. I was the one who got engaged, why was Stella smiling and looking like she had won the lottery. She should be stressed out for crying out loud but she just looks radiant and without a care in the world even though she has a crazy problem and then there’s him. Well I can’t say that I don’t know why Stella is on Top of the world. It was because of him. He makes everything go well, that how Kola has always been, that was his nature and personality. He makes people happy by just doing what he loves. People pleasing I had called it even though I was his biggest recipient but to him, he was just being himself. I remember all those night while he helped me with my assignments, when we went to night class together and I would sleep off knowing for sure he will be awake to keep watch over me. Those times when I would go to clu
MY PERFECT MATCH Where it all started to go wrong.
Stella has been busy with whatever hell she has being raising and even though she told me that she loved me, apart from her birthday I haven’t had any other day to bask in that knowledge so like a junkie I slid back to my addiction. Tomi.You see, I didn’t just slid back but Tomi has being making time for me and the energy between us this time felt different, like we were dating or something, I mean she was definitely more touchy feely than she usually was but I have not let my mind dwell on it. it also didn’t help that anytime I tried to think of Tomi, Stella face flash through my head and it feels as if I was hurting her. That was not something I ever wanted to do, I mean I love the girl for Christ sake.And what of Tomi?My traitorous mind whispers. I still love Tomi but I haven’t made peace with the fact that Tomi can never be mine, maybe
MY PERFECT MATCH Doubts creeps in
I had thought that the worse part of my day was getting to know that Princess doesn’t believe Kola is faithful to me at all but the attitude of those old shareholders who rather stand by Tony even though he was dragging the company down rather than agree with a ‘little girl’ was even worst. I never thought I could be as angry as I was, when they told me to get a husband and think about birthing male children and leave the money matters to the men. And I could see why Feminists were on a steady increase all over the world, I could do what uncle Tony was doing with my eyes closed and my attention busy in school, I don’t need a man to take care of my father’s legacy for me. I had majority of the percentage in A.I. but those men were thorns which I couldn’t remove without hurting myself. If I decide to booth them out of the company, people will lose good will in the company since those men have always been constant and they will back out of investing in
MY PERFECT MATCH Only legends Understand.
“My God, are my eyes deceiving me or is Kola a mortal like the rest of us.” Ezekiel voice jugged me out of my thought, I jumped a little before I looked at his direction and a smile grew on my face.“Eze, my man.” I greeted but he frowned at me. He always hated it when we turned his name into an Igbo name, things guys did to have fun, I guess we never outgrow them.“I knew that you didn’t see me, I was thinking if you have started to let Tomi to influence you after all these years.” He said as he leaned against my car door.“Why?” I asked.“She has been pretending like I don’t exist when I run into her and when we are in public, she acts like it is the first time we are meeting. Which is annoying since our mothers spend time together occasionally.”“You don’t even know what you did, do you?” I shook my head at him, Tomi might be a lot of things but she isn’t a snob t
MY PERFECT MATCH When love hurts.
It has been a couple of days since I suspected Kola and Tomi… I wish I could say that it ended there but it didn’t, every new thing I discovered from there hence forth hurts. Kola might not be aware of it but he was cheating on me with Tomi. The sneaking around, the private conversations and I couldn’t even confront him because I was not supposed to know and technically they didn’t do anything wrong, technically they were just best friend but technicality didn’t fit into this scenario at all.I was still sitting in my car frozen at the car lot, staring at Kola who was busy eating ice cream with Tomi, from the same place with their bodies pressed together, when Princess told me to meet her here, I never thought that this was what I was going to find and now Princess was watching me with worry in her eyes.“I am so sorry, I never wanted you to be hurt, I only wanted you to see the truth but if you haven’t seen it with

“Who is it?” I shouted as I stood up, a little woozy from my excessive drinking even though my head was clearer now. I opened the door without looking. “What?” I screamed into the face of the person.“Gross. Try that again and I will hurt you.” Stella threatened from my door step as I blinked a couple of times to determine that she was real. “So are you going to let me in or am I going to force my way in?” she demanded and her words broke me out of my stupor, I stopped blocking the doorway so she could enter.“Stella what are you doing here?” I asked her as I shut the door behind her and followed her to the sitting room.“If you are not happy to see me just tell me now so I can leave?”“What’s the point, you are leaving either way.” I tell her not referring to her leaving my house.

This is not fair oh.” Ivy complains as she tries another of my shoes on.“Madam, shey you supposed to dey help me pack.” I glanced at her but continued to zip my luggage up.“Eh en, wetin you think say I dey do so?” Ivy commented as she smiled at the shoes she had on. “Dash me this one na, you will see beta ones to buy in Georgia.”“Ivy.” I complained.“Alright.” She removes the shoes. “I still think that I need it more than you though.”Before I could reply her for her statement, my phone rang, I saw it was an unknown number but I picked the call without hesitation. It could be Bode, he recently lost his phone and has been using different numbers to call. Buy phone in Nigeria like a normal person but no, he has to order one

MY PERFECT MATCH It isn’t enough
Today was the day. I breathed out heavily, hoping to release the tension I was feeling but it didn’t help. I was going to attend Tomi Traditional marriage, the white wedding was tomorrow but I wasn’t sure I could get the chance to have a private chat with Kola then.“Are you sure you want to do this?” Bode asks.“Of course, she will so be worried about my presence, I want her to feel uncomfortable a little bit.”“But it is Kola brother who is getting married, why will the bride feel that way?” Bode asked again as I smiled at him. He doesn’t know the full story and no matter how much I was upset with Tomi and Kola, I wouldn’t tell another soul what happened since it can affect her happily ever after. I didn’t get mine because of her but that doesn’t mean that I will repay evil with evil.“Okay oh, let’s go.” Bode said as I smiled and came down from his car the same time he did and rou
MY PERFECT MATCH fairy godmother
Uncle Tony made good of his threat, he left jail the next day after posting bail. He also sent men to kidnap me but the EFCC (Economic and Financial Crime Commission) swooped in and arrested him. Apparently, according to the small information that I could hear while I was still bundled up in the kidnappers nest when everything had gone down, Uncle Tony was being investigated, had been for a while and that someone tipped them off that something was going to happen to me so they watched me too and used this to pin Uncle Tony down.“… Chief Anthony decided to confess his crimes for a reduction in his sentence, from NTA, I am Aisha Yusef reporting.” Bode clicked the TV off in my hospital room.“We need to celebrate.” Bode turns with a flourish and a grin so wide, you could probably count his thirty two teeth.“Alcoholic beverages please.” Ivy added after letting out a whoop and a shocking waist roll that
MY PERFECT MATCH The talk
“You asked to see me Kola?” Tomi asked as she entered my office, she must have gotten my text the night before, I sent it the night before and I couldn't care less when she got it. It didn't matter to me if she had to rush here. Somehow she must know that this is our last time together.“Have a seat.” I tell her.When she sat down she started to talk but I didn’t call her here to listen to her talks, I called her here for her to listen to me. “I never meant for you to be unhappy Kola, believe me…”“Stop, I am not in the mood for your apologies. Why did you do it? That’s all I want to know, why on earth were you convinced that you like me or that I liked you, yeah sure, I might have liked the idea of us being more but that was because you were a safe place for me, why did you have to ruin it?”“Because I thought we would be more.” Tomi
MY PERFECT MATCH Moving on
Days turned into weeks and still I remembered Kola as if he was right beside me, it didn’t get easier, I just got used to the absence. A very good way which I used to keep myself busy and away from thinking about him was A.I. the company had years of rot on it and I was taking care of it one at a time but this time… I was going after the big one.“You are fired and the police downstairs will like to see you.” I said as I dropped the sack letter I had drafted on Uncle Tony table.“What do you think you are doing little girl?” he asked, removing his glasses and dropping the newspaper he was reading on supposed office hours.“Removing the person who tried to ruin my cooperation from the inside out.” I returned with a glare, I was a little bit scared but I won’t let it get to me, I needed to see his face as I checkmated him.“You can’t do anything Stella, go do a beauty
MY PERFECT MATCH Confrontation
“Are you sure that, that is what happened?’ Ivy asked gently but still annoying. This is the sixth time she was asking that question within the hour that I have gotten home, Bode is still in the sitting room while I was changing, and he wanted to see me calm first before he leaves.“Yes Ivy, how many times do you want me to say it. Kola was in a lip lock with Tomi when I entered his office. And no I didn’t imagine it and neither was my mind playing tricks on me.”“Brother Kola is not the type of person to do this.”“He lied before… I am not surprised, I would have never trusted him.” I brushed my face angrily, I hated the tears that kept falling. They needed to stop. Princess was right, Kola was not worth my time or tears if he is the half decent human that he tried to convince me that he was.“Okay oh. Let me leave you to pull yourself together while I keep Bode company.” Ivy paused
MY PERFECT MATCH Heartbroken
I don’t know where I was driving to. All I knew was that I had to get away from Kola before I would run him down and I needed to get as far away from him as possible. A police checkpoint was ahead of me and when I stopped in front of them, I tried to clean my tears.“Ma’am are you Okay?” he asked as I smiled through my eyes that were watery again.“Sure officer.” I lied as I collected the driving license from my car and passed it to him.“The particulars of the car.” He added and I passed it to him too, when he saw it he nodded. “Can you park the car to the side ma’am?”“Okay.” I said confused but I parked the car any way and he took his sweet time in joining me where he told me to park the car.“I need you to call someone, every of your documents is in a good shape but you are not.”“You cannot make that assumption, I am perfectly fine.”&
