Previously…

Femi.

"Ife!" I exclaimed. I had an anger boiling in my chest and if she wasn't careful I would definitely make her an example.

"Femi I know I hurt you but I'm sorry. We can move past this and be together again." She said.

I couldn't help but chuckle "you must be on cheap crack if you think we will ever be together in this life or the next. It's quite late for that Ife. First off, I have a girlfriend who is a hundred times the person that you can only dream of being. And mind you, instead of looking for who's life you will ruin next, why not treat yourself of those remaining STDs in your system. I know you still have plenty of them darling so yeah fuck the fuck off. Any day you see me again, walk by without saying hello." I said and pushed my trolley with force that got her hand off it. She squealed in pain. Ah probably got hurt but I did not care in the slightest.

I got into my Tesla and made my way back to my penthouse. I looked around and just now realized that I probabl

    Previously…Femi.“Femi…” she dragged and trailed off. Her voice shook while she said my name. She sounded scared.“Radike talk to me. I saw your calls and texts. Y’all are not at home, what the fuck happened?” I almost yelled. I was under a lot of tension that I didn’t know what I was doing anymore.“Femi we are in the hospital. Ama collapsed while preparing to come see you. She said she’s been feeling weird all day but I didn’t know that it was that serious until this afternoon.” She said in panic.I gasped “what the hell? Wait what hospital are you at?” I ran around to get my keys and power bank to head out. What the fuck was going on? I was confused as hell.“Saint Mark’s” she said.“Fuck Radike why did you take her to that wack hospital. What if this is a serious issue. Those people could kill her.” I ranted. Saint Mark’s Hospital almost killed Kola when he had an accident in which he incited minor injuries. A simple surgery and they turned the whole thing into something more ser

    Previously...Femi."Um she has a kidney failure apparently." I breathed out. It tasted very bitter coming from my mouth."What?!!! Tell me you're lying" she yelled."I wish I was. I wish all this was a lie. I am so damn dumbfounded right now" I said taking off my face cap and rubbing my head. "Oh my God" Radike exclaimed with both hands covering her mouth."I'm definitely not letting these people touch her. Not after what they did to my brother. I'm going to fly her out. She will get the best of the best healthcare and she will be fine. I know nothing will happen to her." I reassured Radike who was already sobbing. I consoled her for a while by putting a hand on her shoulder for support."This is really dark sided..." Matthew said from where he was on the other side of the room. "My sister is the healthiest person I know. How did this even happen?""I don't know man. I don't know. I will fix it." I told him and he went silent again.I looked at Ama and said in my mind. "I will never

    Previously...Femi."Wait... what happened to her?" Tunde said. The worry in his face became even more evident."She's in the hospital Tunes. She had a kidney failure or disease or whatever. Both her kidneys are bad. And because I didn't answer the fucking phone they took her to Saint Mark's." I revealed."What the fucking hell? Kidney fucking failure??? And St Mark's??? No not there, they'll kill her." Tunde said in panic. He knew how Kola nearly died when he had that accident. "Yeah same thing I said. I'm just in a ditch yo. I need to get her to Mayo Clinic and fast. They are the only ones that I can trust with her. Nigerian hospitals are wack." I said. I felt less uneasy now that we were brainstorming on what to do."Look, we need to get Ama out of there as soon as possible. Is she awake at least?" Tunde asked. I shook my head. "She's in limbo. Sleeping. Coma. Whatever. She isn't conscious. The doctor said she can't fly while unconscious and if she doesn't wake up soon they would

    Previously…Femi.“Yeah. It’s a whole mess.” I said. Kola was usually the person I confided in but I came to Tunde now because I felt like Kola hated Ama. It was beginning to look like that was not the case.“So where is she?” He asked. “Saint fucking Mark’s” I spat. It irked me so much that she was in that dreadful hospital.“What in the actual hell? What in the world made you take her there? Do you remember how they almost killed me in there?” Kola said. Once again blaming me.“Her brother took her, not me. I would never risk her life like that. And before you say anything her brother isn’t a Lagosian. He doesn’t know what hospitals are good and what ones aren’t. So I don’t blame him. That was the one closer to their house. We have to get her out of there and to a better hospital to do the surgery. If she doesn’t wake up they have to do it anyway. So we have to take her to a good specialist here in Nigeria.” I narrated.Tunde added “I’ll get one of those coma ambulances. She will

    Previously...Femi."Kola, Tunde said they're coming in. We need to go to the reception." I said.Kola silently followed me out along with Matthew. We met Tunde in the reception area."Well?" Kola asked."We need a go ahead from the hospital to touch Ama." He said."That's not a problem. I would assume the doctor must have told the lobby to let us take her." I said."I'll go ask them." Matthew said and almost ran to the receptionists' desk. I watched him. He looked like he signed off something before he returned back to us."They can go in now." He said. Tunde got to work, taking his medication up to AMA's room with Matthew showing them the way to her ward."Thank goodness this is going well." I muttered."We just have to hope the medics don't fuck this shit up. She's stable. We expect her to remain that way." Kola said. I sighed. That was another issue.In all I felt like they were professional enough not to screw this up. Tunde would never use people he wasn't sure of.After a few

    Previously….Once we were settled, we waited to hear this doctor’s side of the story. This place was know you be one of the best in the kidney transplant field so I was sure that she was in safe hands. I was half at peace knowing that we were able to get her here with no complications.“Good day gentlemen. Mr Akinjola and Mr Ukoha you are welcome.” The doctor said. It was quite creepy how everyone knew my name as soon as they set eyes on me. But then again my reputation was the loudest among my brothers and I. Tunde took the least heat because he wasn’t trying to be as ruthless and creative as me and Kola.“Yeah so what’s the diagnosis?” I asked so he would get straight to the point. There was no time for dilly dallying.“Yes sir, um… the patient has had a kidney failure but seeing as you transferred her here from another hospital then you probably are aware of why she’s here in the first place. However we ran some more tests and we have realized something very dreadful.” The doctor s

    Previously....Kola.I still didn't want Ama with my brother but I didn't want her to die as well. Losing her would break Femi to shreds and I didn't think he could come back from that. This kind of attachment was the reasoning behind my wanting Ama far away from our lives. All I could think of right now though, was Femi's well being, so yes we could compromise for now.——-/Femi.I went over to where Kola and Tunde were waiting after talking to Radike. I knew they stayed away because Kola didn't want to be close to Radike."Okay so what's the news now" Tunde asked and Kola listened intently."Um she's still stable but doesn't have long before she Uh..." I trailed off. I couldn't bring myself to say it yet again."How long?" Kola chimed in."Five weeks." I said. It was gut wrenching to even think about."Wow..." Tunde breathed out. He felt it too. The disappointment and pain. Ama was close to him in a way. He had a soft spot for her."This is all so ridiculous. Ama is the healthiest p

    Previously...Radike.I sat there waiting for Matthew to come out of the lab and give us the verdict. I stole glance at Kola while at it. My ex-fling. I was trying to avoiding him and it looked like he was trying to avoid me as well that was until he locked eyes with me. Knowing Kola he was probably dumbfounded about something with his facial expression.I looked away immediately when he started walking towards me. "Just great.." I muttered. I didn't want him anywhere near me. Not after he almost got me fired. If it wasn't for Ama who's life was on the line and Femi his brother who I always thought the worst of, I would be out of a job. "Hi Didi." He said. He used the name he always called be when we were sleeping together. The sound of that name pulled at my heartstrings but I ignored it.I looked up. "What is it?" I asked. I acted pissed even though I really wasn't. I wanted to be pissed though. I wanted to be pissed at him but I couldn't be. So I put on an act."Oh don't be so col

    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.
