Previously…

Ama.

"Not going to work very early is like, really foreign to me. I won't be taking leaves that's for sure. I might as well get another part time job or start a business." I said while climbing out of bed.

My brother laughed "Actually that's a great idea. Look for a remote job to add to this. It's brilliant."

"Isn't it?" I said and smile. This talk had given me the idea to start applying for remote jobs abroad.

"Anywho. I see that you're all dressed for work. Have you eaten?" I asked.

My brother stood up from his position on the bed "well, someone at work owes me breakfast so I'll just eat at work."

I sighed and looked down. I missed that place a lot. The way Tola liked to poke his nose and put his head into my business was forever engraved in my heart. I still kept in touch with him because he was a dear friend.

Of course I would have told you if you didn't screw me the fuck over.""Meaning what?" He said feigning confusion."You are for real? Asking me what? Wait... you bring a girl who looks exactly like Ama to my house for me to fuck her and in return you said you were going to stop fucking Radike and then bam I came into your office last week and there you were.." I shot back.Kola looked at floor and rubbed his face. He knew I was in the right. "It's not like that Femi.""Then what the fuck is it? Look I'm tired of you thinking you can do anything you want in this company and also in my life. I'm your younger brother not your puppet. Besides we have equal shares here so I do

I now had a better job with a very nice office and my own MacBook. I never had one because I couldn't afford it. This was a very big milestone in my life and I was stoked for it.I sat in my chair grinning and pretending to have imaginary visitors. This was so surreal to me. I now had my own office. Once my victory routine was over, I started finally doing my work for the day.The reports started coming in and the emails started pouring in. In no time I had piles of work on my desk. There was a lot to read and review.The staff were very nice to me. Some departments brought me some office decorations as welcome gifts. Some brought me flowers. I was quite happy with what was happening.I had a

Plus I still need to get groceries.I had to sit somewhere to keep replying him because it didn't seem he was going to let me be for now.A waiter lady came to me and asked what I wanted. "Um the avocado salad and froyo. Any combination is fine please." I told her and she wrote it down and left. I looked back down to see Femi's reply.*I have a personal shopper. I could give you all that. I don't want you stressing yourself babe.I laughed *Lol how about this... it isn't stress to me in any way shape or form. It's just exercise.*okay but next time tell me when you're hungry so I can send you

As he drove, he took my hand in it and kissed it, holding my hand the entire way through."So babe... did anything happen today while you were eating." He asked.That was an oddly specific question. He probably knew what happened so it was better for me to just tell him. I would have told him anyways."Um yeah.. Chike came to me while I was eating. I'm actually scared right now because he seems to know where I am all the time. Those pictures taken at the beach, the game mall and now here. He's always conveniently where I am. I don't even know if um he stalked me to the club as well." I vented. I was genuinely concerned and worried for my safety."I saw you guys but then I saw you smiling with him and was like... what the bloody hell?" He said. I just kne

I saw what it did to you the last time. I think you should give her time. Try talking to her tomorrow and send her maybe food or flowers. You know something to make her know you're sorry. If she doesn't budge then wait for her to come to work on Friday. Knowing how she is I don't think she would wait till Friday though." Tunde said."I'm surprised you know her so well now. Don't know how to feel about that." I said candidly. Ama was an amazing person with a heart of gold. I didn't want her personality to break Tunde and then I would have to fight my brot

I said and relaxed to hear what he had to say.He cleared his throat. Something that him and his brother Femi seemed to be fond of."Um... so I was the one who made this mess. I was so upset when I heard very bad news this morning. I mean it was my fault.""What was your fault Tunde?" I asked, sounding like a shrink."Um, so..." he said and chuckled darkly.. "I should not be telling you this but um I think maybe you would understand better because you're on the outside kind of hearing it for the first time."I nodded and he continued "well I had this girl I was dating back when I was at Oxford.

I followed and sat in the second chair.I decided to speak first. "Babe I'm sorry. I was an immature prick and I absolutely apologize."Ama chuckled "yeah okay. It's not a big deal anymore. I was sold at that corny poem you sent.""Ugh" I said smiling in embarrassment and leaning back covering my face "yeah I just remembered that." I said. I scratched my nose. I was so embarrassed.Ama laughed at my reaction. "You think you have jokes huh." I shook my head smiling and pinching my nose."It was cute. I liked it. I was reading it everyday since you sent it. Loved it as corny as it was." She said

No sir, you didn't employ me boo boo. If Femi tells me to walk then I'll fucking walk. Plus I haven't done anything that would hurt the company. It's in the darned contract. I could sue. That is the exact thing Tunde has been avoiding and if he forces me out then I will definitely sue." She ranted on and on.I shook my head. "He's so stupid." I said. He was really the most irrational person. And to thing he was good at maths was very far fetch. How could a man who calculated for a living be that dense."Have you gone to Femi at least?" I asked."Yeah. He told me to fuck off. Well not literally. He looked really pissed and didn't want me in his office so I couldn't tell him anything. C

    Ama.The day had ended. I felt giddy to go home and tell Femi all that happened today. My dream was being fulfilled before my very eyes. I was living in it. I really appreciated Femi's dad for giving me this opportunity. I was very grateful.Femi texted me, telling me he was downstairs and I ran into the elevator without knowing, meeting Tola there. "Ha, hey bestie... why are you running like that?" He said with an amused look on his face."Running ke, me? Never" I said, feigning ignorance of what I just unknowingly did."It's only man that will make you that excited. Femi is here isn't he?" He said.I folded "Yes he is." I rolled my eyes "I'm just happy to finally see him that's all. He's been MIA throughout today." I said."Ahn ahn why?" Tola asked."Well he's been in a meeting and I get it you know. Today is his first day at work since the transplant so I understand. They were probably doing an organizational meeting of some sorts." I said."Okay I get it. Anyways how are you enjo

    Femi.I felt so bad for not answering my fiancée. I looked and saw a text from her. “Hey, I know you’re probably busy. You wouldn’t believe what just happened. I’m so happy. Gahhhh call me when you can. Ly x” the text said.I didn’t want to dampen her own mood in any way. She seemed very happy about what was going on around her. I was still sad and emotionally downcast and I knew if I spoke to her in this mood she was going to leave everything she was doing and appear in my office. I would really appreciate her presence now but I also didn’t want to spoil her happiness. I decided to text her saying that I was going to be in a long meeting and I would come pick her up when she’s ready to go. She texted back for acknowledgement. I dropped my phone and sighed, placing my head in my hand. I seemed to be doing that a lot.In my mind, I was trying to picture how this woman could even be remotely related to me. I had to keep telling myself “my parents are dead”. Whoever this woman was, she

    Femi.Today was a good day. I was very giddy while entering the office and it wasn't even about anything that I did or was going to do. I was just very glad that Ama was finally getting her flowers. It was vivid in my mind how she would always talk my ears full on how many ideas she has for the Lays project even when it was not set in stone that she was going to handle it with Kechi industries. She had so much passion for this that i knew she was going to do very well with it.As i walked into the office i was greeted by the front desk representative and before i could leave the lobby she said "There's someone here to see you sir. She said she is your mother." She said.I frowned. My mother never came here before. It was strange that she was here. "Okay where is she?" I asked. I hoped for her sake that she didn't send my 'mother' to my office."The conference room" she said. I sighed and walked in to my office first to drop my laptop and gadgets before going downstairs back to the con

    Ama."So, the Lays project was actually suggested by me for business continuity. We were brainstorming for strategies to have more leverage in the manufacturing market and I came up with this. We already have a deal with Pepsi who are the primary owners of the Lays brand. It is such a big brand in the US. Now we have to latch on to the brand more to be able to keep our relationship. We already have the Quaker Oats deal because we asked them for it and that is why Quaker Oats is no longer an imported brand. Now is the time to take Lays. This will mean that Lays would be cheaper here in Nigeria and would make more sales, generating revenue for the company. We need to design the product and pitch it to Pepsi for approval and rights." I said. Once I was done with my speech, there was a roaring thunderous ovation for me. Even the HR manager who looked scornfully at me before was ecstatic. I felt good indeed."Any questions?" I said once I was done with my presentation. I had shown them a c

    Ama.The meeting went from project to project until it finally got to my turn. The Lays Project. Shawn smiled when he saw it. He had texted me before today that I had to come and defend the project in front of the board. They had approved it but wanted to know if I knew what I was doing. They are very unserious because I was the one who came up with this idea so what more did they want? I however, tried to study what had already been rendered and made slides to display what I was about to say.I stood up and walked over to the front of the conference room and started my presentation. I was looking around at the faces before I started and my eyes landed on Shawn. He gave me a small smile and a nod. I felt more confident as I was feeling nervous before.

    Previously...Femi."Wait I actually told the doctor to still do the test with the fetus they removed. I know it's dark sided but I don't want to be beriddled with grief that's not mine to bear. Because I think it's my fault. If I wasn't shagging some girl and actually answered the phone on time maybe they could have saved the baby you know." Tunde said."There was no way that you could have known," I said."How long till the test comes out?" Kola asked."By tomorrow." Tunde said."So calm the fuck down. If the baby is really yours then you can now cry as much as you want but I am sure that the baby isn't yours. That girl is a slimy snake." Kola said.. "As for you, I will call Dad's therapist. You need to get yourself straight after the damn drug use." Kola said."Okay. I don't want dad to know though" Tunde said."He won't know don't worry. Therapists don't snitch on their clients. Even if Dad will definitely know you're seeing the therapist, he won't know why and think it's for your

    Femi.Tunde just stood there staring at us but we didn’t waver. We had to intervene. Tunde did not look good in any capacity at all.“Tunde you need to speak.” I said after a while of silence.“Why? Why do you guys think that something is wrong with me?” Tunde said while twitching, even though I doubted it before now I was sure that he was using.“God! Tunde where did you get the drugs from!” Kola yelled, he was not having it. Tunde was getting irritated now.I held Kola’s shoulder. “If you come at him like that he won’t say anything,” I said to him.I looked at Tunde, “The reason why we think you have a problem is this,” I pointed at his appearance,“You’re really insecure about your hairline but your hair is growing out, you never let that happen for anything. You didn’t even wear a cap to cover it. You’re dressed like a homeless person. Shirt not tucked in, tie loose, clothes rumpled. No suit on a Monday morning that’s very unlike you.” I said.“And let’s not forget the uncontrolla

    Previously…Femi."Well after all this it seems like I have to get an executive assistant because the work is plenty. I need someone to keep track. This just means that our company is growing day by day and I am proud of everyone and the work they have put into this while I was away. Thank you so much. Speaking of our company growing, it may seem as though we have made enough money for us to raise salaries. You all have done a wonderful job. I will liaise with HR. Expect those emails." I said. Everyone cheered and I liked to see smiles on their faces. They would only be happy to work for us when they are happy with the benefits they get.Once the meeting ended we cornered Tunde in the conference room, just the three of us and I used my phone to shut off the surveillance cameras so that we could effectively speak to our nit wit brother.———-Femi.“Oya what is going on with you, quickly.” Kola said.“I don’t understand why you guys are attacking me like this” Tunde replied.
