Previously…Femi"Okan mi calm down" my father said. Everything was going exactly how I knew it would."No, No! I won't!" My mother faced my father and then turned back to me, leaning forward with anger all over her face. "So Femi. You mean you want to go and risk your life over some girl?""Mom, she's not some girl okay? She's my girlfriend." I yelled. I hated it when people were trying to be classist towards Ama."Femi. This is a serious issue. I don't think you have thought it through very well" my father said in a calm but stern tone."sofun. o fẹ lati ba aye rẹ jẹ fun ọmọbirin ti o ro pe o nifẹ (tell him. he wants to ruin his life for a girl he thinks he loves)" my mother said.I frowned at my mom "I don't know when you started reading minds mom. And dad, I don't understand that statement. I'm in my thirties. I'm a grown man. I should even be married by now so yes I know full well what I'm getting my self into.""Femi. How important is this girl that you want to risk everything

Previously...Femi."Femi. Why do you want to bring sorrow to you mother? Ehn omo mi? (My child)" my mom said in utter sadness. I could hear it in her voice. It triggered something in me. I was still not going to back out but it just told me to take a different approach to the situation.I had to stop acting like she wasn't supposed to feel that way because she was. Her feelings were valid as she was my mother. The woman who raised me and loved me so dearly. I was her favorite child. I had to take her paranoia into consideration while making my case.I sighed as I finished collecting my thoughts. "Mummy, I know you're upset and honestly you should be very upset. I can't imagine the scenarios you have going through your head right now. I need you to understand me though. It really wouldn't have come to this if we had other options. You know I have the money to pay for a kidney but we just didn't find one. She's O negative. Same as me. Her roommate was also O negative but she failed the

Previously…Femi.I sharply stood up and placed my two hands on his chest, pushing him back with force. He went back multiple steps and crashed into the front desk where my old corporal friend was stationed at."Are you fucking sick? Who the fuck do you think you're putting your hands on you son of a bitch!!" I yelled.He charged towards me until we were toe to toe, the corporal who I could see from the side of my eye stood there in fear. What did the police academy actually train.Remi and I were toe to toe now. I snarled at him and he breathed loudly in my face."I dare you to put your hand on me on more time and I swear that would be the last time you ever use your fucking hands. Try me." I growled in his face."You think you're a big gun huh? Well this is my fucking territory and you can't do shit." He said. I saw a hint of fear in his eyes.I smirked "try me, little boy"Remi balled his fist and he was about to strike. I braced myself to catch his fist when he stopped and took hi

Previously...Femi.I walked into the room to see that she was still sleeping. Normally, she would have woken at the sound of water from the bathroom but I guessed drugs were involved. The only issue I was having was that Matthew, the bane of my existence, was awake, sitting on the edge of his bed and folding his arms."So, where are you coming from?" Matthew asked, folding his arms.I rolled my eyes. "Got held by a police man with something against me" I said quietly while walking to put some clothes on so I could sleep."That's a very thought out lie. She won't suspect a thing." He said. It wasn't a surprise that he didn't believe me. I would have been shocked if he did."How about because there's nothing to be suspicious of? Look, I know you won't believe that I'm telling the truth but I am. What kind of a guy would I be if I went to fro-lick with some chick when my girlfriend is in the hospital fighting for her life." I said still quietly. I didn't want to wake Ama up."Yeah okay.

Previously...Ama.Femi looked at me with a seriousness. My heart started thudding. I just hoped he wouldn't lie to me. I was genuinely scared that he would act suspiciously."Um, so I told you I went to Tunde's house first and then I also went to Kola's. Thinking about it now, like I told your brother last night, I should have just told them to meet me at a bar or maybe Brass and Copper so I could have saved time." He started. He had a valid point. He burnt a lot of fuel going back and forth between lekki and Ikoyi. Tunde lived in Ikoyi while Kola lived in Richmond Lekki. His parents lived in Banana Island which was also in Ikoyi. He didn't section the visits well that was for sure."Yeah I know. You didn't plan those visits well I must say." I said.He chuckled "Yeah so, I went to my parents' place. It was kind of important stuff. My mom wasn't happy so I tried to make her come around before I could leave. That included me staying there for a long while because she said she missed m
