Zara.

My heart began racing in shock, what did he mean? "Sir, you said the next two weeks? Why?"

"Amarachi I've been watching you. I have CCTV in your office remember?" He said and pointed at the tv screen mounted in his office which showed all the areas in and around this office, including my office. "Look I know something is bothering you. You've been absentminded, rubbing your face exasperatedly and acting aloof all day. Sometimes you zone out and ask me to repeat myself which has never happened, ever. I'm concerned. So you're taking two weeks off" I gasped. He took twenty percent of my salary and still gave me two weeks of an obviously unpaid leave.

"Hey, don't worry I'm not heartless. It's a paid leave. I can't take twenty percent and still give you an unpaid leave. Come on now, anyways I have spoken with HR. Just go and clear your head. I'll send you some money to just have fun and spend on fr

    Previously...Femi"What do you want Kola?" I growled out.Kola who was wearing a half open shirt with Cuban links and a pair of black jeans chuckled at me while standing akimbo. I groaned again."Well first off, you're a pathetic piece of shit. I just wanted to see if you're even alive at all since you haven't been to the office in days and you're not answering you're phone. I'm sha happy you didn't drink poison or something." Kola said while smiling. It was a normal thing for Kola to make fun of me when I was sad."Fuck off Kola" I said back and rubbed my temples. My head was hurting thanks to all the alcohol I'd been taking."And all this is because of Ama. The greatest Yoruba Demon in the world has been crippled by a mere assistant? That would make a good Instablog headline." Kola said and laughed at his dry jokes.I impulsively threw my shirt at h

    Ama.On Friday nights, it was typical for a club to be very crowded and bustling with a lot of people. I thanked God that I was not claustrophobic because the amount of people in the club at 10pm could give one a heart attack.Radike and I navigated through the crowd and the loud music and got to the bar. I needed a lot of alcohol in my system to be able to handle this mess that was Quilox."Well take two long islands please." Radike told the bartender.I waved my hand towards the man "can I have a glass of whiskey neat, first while you're doing that." I screamed over the loud music.Swiftly, the waiter poured me a glass of whiskey and passed it to me before he went over to make our Long Island. I picked it up and took a sip which burned my throat a little and I caught Radike giving

    Ama.I went as fast as my poor legs could carry me down the road. I had absolutely no clue where I was going but the panic and fear that I felt made me continue walking.I finally saw a small road to the left and took it only to be met with a deserted and quiet walk way. Unfortunately, I was still followed by this person. I had no clue who it was and it was killing me. Was it a thief, a cultist, a kidnapper."Ama would you stop?" A very familiar male voice which I dreaded suddenly spoke from behind me. I gasped and made a sharp turn around.It was him, my ex boyfriend who used me to better his life and proceeded to treat me like shit. The emotional and verbal abuse inflicted on me by this man came rushing back to me like an avalanche."What do you want from me Chike?" I said with a trembling tone. I was so scared of him. Why would he follow me to this lonely place in the middle o

Chike asked."Yeah she's an assistant" Tunde said and they began laughing.I got irritated about how they were talking about Ama "Hey hey hey hey I told you guys to stop talking about her in a derogatory manner." I snapped which made them stop laughing."Wow you must really like her if you're reacting like that man." Chike said in surprise."He does which shocks me to no end. He's the more ruthless one amongst us" Tunde said."How the mighty have fallen" Chike joked and the others laughed along with him.I wasn't finding any of this funny so I took all my drink in one gulp and stared outside the VIP towards

    Previously....Femi.I shook my head and walked out of the elevator to our assigned room. The room was a bit too cramped up for my liking. There was just a Queen sized bed and an arm chair. I had hoped for there to be a long chair where I could sleep. I didn't want Ama to be uncomfortable.My first line of action was to tuck Ama into the bed and make sure she was warm. I looked at her porcelain face. She had the most wonderful features. From her beautiful full brows to her long and full lashes, her almost perfect nose structure and her plump pink lips. She was God's best creation. Her hair was so long and lush and thick and I longed to run my fingers through it while I kissed her soft juicy lips while touching her in places that would set her soul on fire."Argh!!!" I groaned and rubbed my face with my palm. I needed her and it hurt so much. It was toxic but I loved it. I loved the feeling of need I had for her.

"Wow, Amarachi you can sleep for Africa" i muttered to myself.I got up and stretched before taking a shower, finally getting out of my attire from last night. I put in some grey sweatpants and a tank top and some slides I got from Miniso, a Japanese store that had everything. I tied my hair in a bun at the top of my head and was ready to go.I went out of my room and immediately went to the kitchen where I had previously heard Radike cooking.I smiled and leaned against the door "Rad Rad.. that smells so nice."She looked up and smile "thanks, but Ama you can shaa sleep ahn ahn."I rubbed my face "I know babes. That was expected after the crazy night I had."Radike smirked "oh, did you boogie

Hope you brought something for me sha." he said trying to peek into my handbag as he always did."Haha, yes I did. You know I don't miss." I bragged and he grinned from ear to ear, collecting my luggage from me."Let's go and greet mommy before she says I'm disrespectful." I said and we made our way through the tiny corridors to the backyard while bantering and laughing."Ikemefuna onyeee (Ikemefuna who was that)" I heard my mother's voice ring out from the back yard where she was busy making dinner.We got there just in time to answer her.I gave a small smile "hi mom".

    Previously...Ama."I know. I always have all these in my mind but we just have to forgive her. What's done is done and I'm sure she regrets what she did." My brother said. I scoffed making my brother stare at me in confusion. He was 21 hence too young to understand what was happening."She probably regrets but she's still very shallow meaning that at any given opportunity she will certainly repeat her actions again. She hasn't changed. Imagine her trying to advice me to go after men for money. Meaning I should reduce my self worth? Hell no." I said."Yeah that's jacked up. Speaking of which, I'm suspecting you." He said playfully."Ahn ahn for what?" I said in surprise. What was he getting at."Well, I couldn't help but notice that very shiny bracelet on your wrist. I may be broke but I know luxury. Those are diamonds Sis.

    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.
