Derricks POV;

I get home feeling mentally exhausted. This is the worst I've felt in a long time. 

I walk into our living room and find it empty. However, I know my father is around cause his car is still parked in our compound. I head lazily up to my room and take a long, cool shower. I get into a simple pair of shorts and a vest before laying on my bed to nap. 

A few seconds into my sleep, a knock on my door interrupts me. Causing me to sit up In irritation. 

"May I come in? "My fathers voice questions and I silently throw my arms and legs in the air in annoyance. 

Why did he have to come now? Couldn't he wait two more hours? 

Why now when sleep has her seductive arms all over me?

"Come in! "I call in agitation and the door opens slowly. Revealing my father. Something about his appearance doesn't seem right.&n

I am alone in the house and am dusting all the furniture in his living room as there's nothing to do. The television became boring not too long ago and so did my phone. I am listening to music whilst dusting and I come in contact with a seemingly old photo album. I pick up and dust it. Fascinated by its size and design. It's just as beautiful as it is huge. I help myself to a couch before opening the album. The first picture I see causes my eyes to widen. Its a picture of Derrick, Dayo, Ayo, Tobi and late Ike. They were in university when they took this picture. Not much has changed about Ayo he's just as lanky as in his university days. Dayo gained some weight and heig

    Dayos POV; Derrick just called a few minutes ago to inform me of Esthers fear of thunder and darkness and that I should go check up on her. However, when I went to check on her, she said she was fine and seemed to not want nor need help. So I really don't know how to help her if she needs it. She'd better be fine for her own sake. I pull off my shirt and singlet, and dump my body on my bed. The power has just been cut and being that it's raining, all the windows are shut, to avoid any coming in. Which means heat is building up. I am startled into a sitting position when Esther barges into my room screaming my name. "Dayo! Dayo! " She doesn't just stop there, but jumps unto my bed and grabs my arm. Shaking like a vibrating cell phone. "What is it? "I question and she looks at me panting heavily. &

  • My Step-Girlfriend   Chapter {56} Why Did you?

    Dayos POV; I spent all night thinking about Esther. Wondering why she never fights me off when I try to get close to her. Wondering how she feels when I touch or hold her. Does she want it? Or is she just scared? What if she's scared of me now? What if she only does the things she does out of fear? After all, she was only a timid little girl when I first met her. My longing for her keeps intensifying with every passing day. Every morning when I watch her lazily walk about the house. When she walks with her eyes half closed to avoid loosing her sleep. The glow her tender, fair skin gives off every morning. And her messed up hair sticking out of her hair net. Like a little girl who needs a fathers help getting ready. I never intended to fall for her. Not when Derrick is her older brother. If wrong steps are taken, my friendship with Derrick might suffer a nasty blow. A blow I would only hope our friendship will survive. I love

    Narrators Narrative; "You're getting too relaxed. This was not the plan!" He screams and the lady on the sofa shuts her eyes In annoyance. "You think I don't know that? Getting married to him was never part of the plan either, yet you told me to go ahead with it. You better figure something out cause this sh*t isn't happening!" She screams at the man. Walking off the sofa and moving to his front. "Calm down. I'd figure something out." He persuades as he takes hold of her shoulders. "You'd better!" She scoffs. Freeing herself from his grip. What's going on? We'd find out soon enough. Dayos POV; "I can't believe we wasted our time!" Derrick finally breaks the silence in the room. I knew his big mouth would be the one to open first.

    Esthers POV; I walk into the open Space, continuously dragging my cross-shoulder bag over my stomach. It's been a week since kunle agreed to meet up with me. He's been playing on my intelligence for the past 7 days. Even Derrick and Dayo got frustrated. I have to admit, Kunle is a very wise guy. He's taking caution. Enough caution to make me fear the success of this plan. I am in a red three-quarter, pleated dress. I deliberately chose to wear something free in a bid to hide my belly. Looking at it, one would think I have eaten a bit too much and pregnancy will not be the first thought to cross their minds. However, I don't want to take any risks. *Where is he?* I hear my brother's voice question into the ear pods I'm wearing. I know we ought to have sort for something more discrete as a means of communication, but hey, this is Nigeria. The fancy devices we see in movies are not so rampant and easy to get here. They are so rear they almost

Before he can comprehend what's going on, Esther throws herself at him and wraps her legs around his waist. Causing Dayo to have to hold her back to avoid her falling and him toppling over. Esther is too excited to notice she's in the air and that too in Dayo's arms. She soon realizes this and quickly releases her legs and comes down. "Oh my goodness. I'm so sorry. "She apologizes as she dusts his shirt. Unnecessarily attempting to smoothening out the wrinkles she caused it. Dayo gently moves her hands away and questions. "What happened? " "It's.... It's .. "Esther makes to speak but can't catch her breath so she points her phones screen at Dayos face. Dayo has no idea what to look for, or

The same one they couldn't find and the same one who got Derrick, Esther and Dayo, the video they lost. "You? "He screams in alarm and Tobi just stares. Dumbfounded and confused. "Can someone please explain what's going on here. "Tobi finally speaks. Snapping the other three out of their staring contest. "Wait, she's your sister? "Derrick questions Tobi and Tobi nods slowly. Unsure of what will happen next. "Oh, thank you Jesus! "Derrick screams falling to the ground and Dayo explodes in laughter. "I can't believe this. "Dayo manages to exhale amidst his laughter. "What is going on? "Tobi questions again. This time with impatience. "Tobi, this are the guys I told you about. The ones I lost my job for. "Rose replies and Tobis eyes widen.

"She screams and Derrick just stares as his sister is throwing a tantrum in Dayos dining room. "Look, I don't even see the point in all this. I mean, my life had officially stopped a months ago! This child in my womb put a full stop to alot of things in my life. Why can't I just live with this? Why don't we just let Kunle be? There's no point in all this madness.

  • My Step-Girlfriend   Chapter {62} Kunle; I Miss Her

    Kunles POV; It's been weeks, sorry, months since I last set eyes on Esther. I miss her. Her sassing, beauty, tantrums, jokes, pranks. Everything. She used to go out of her way to please me. She has a very overprotective brother but always found a way to cut corners to be able to spend time with me. Esther is beautiful and simply unique. Truth be told, I always knew Esther was hiding something from me. She acts all badass around me but I know she's just a fragile little lily. I remember once when I took her to a pub and she requested a bottle of fanta. It took all the will power in me to avoid laughing at the expression on the bar tenders face. She quickly sensed something was wrong and requested something 'not too strong' she didn't even know what to ask for. And the other day, the other day I took her to a club, she was visibly shaking, but I acted unaware of this. I just love seeing how far she's willing to go for me.

My little sister just lost her job and she's finding it difficult to stay home alone. Hence she opted to follow me to the burial of someone she doesn't even know. I'm older than Rose by a year but we behave like there's no age gap between us and sometimes, people often even ask if we're a couple. It's silly, but Rose always replies with a yes. Talk about a one of a kind sister. I remember once when she said so at a party. To the hearing of a girl I was hoping to later ask out. Long story short, I lost the girl cause she thought my sister and I were a 'couple'. "Rose! Let's go! "I scream for the third time this morning at my sister who won't come out of her room. "I'm coming. Just one minute! "She calls back. "You said
