and noticed that Betty was still sleeping. I
stood up from the bed and went to the
bathroom to have my bath and brush my
teeth. on returning to the room, Betty was
already awake.
BETTY: baby good morning.
ME: good morning dear
BETTY: don’t tell me you are already
going out oo
ME: ***walked closer to the wardrobe to
pick cloths****
yes dear. I told you we were told to come
very early.
BETTY: huuuuh. so I will be the only one
at home now abi?.
ME: *** looking at the nylon I kept
bimpe’s jewelries at the bottom of the
wardrobe***** don’t worry baby. I should
be back in 6 hours time.
BETTY: let’s say around 2pm abi?.
ME: *** scared and don’t know what to do
to the jewelries****. haba. 6 hours time
should be like 5pm now.
BETTY: huuuuuuuuh. what will you buy
for me when you are coming back?
ME: *** brought out the nylon stylishly
and put it inside my bag beneath the
wardrobe and zipped up the bag*****
what do you want me to buy for you?
BETTY: chocolates and fruits.
ME: **** finished dressing up****** no
problem dear. I’m set to go now.
BETTY: hmmmmm. banker!!!!. you are set
and you didn’t comb your hair?.
ME: oooops. it skipped my mind.
BETTY: ***stood up from the bed, picked
a comb from my trolley and walked closer
to me in her “body revealing night gown”
*******. baby, let me comb your hair for
you.
ME: *** stood still with my Joystick
gaining Attention because the body
contact*****
BETTY: I’m through. you are now a fine
boy ***** pulls my neck with her hands
and kissed me**** don’t wink at anyone
outside there ooo. remember you have a
wife you left at home.
ME: ok dear. see you later in the evening.
BETTY: ***hugged me again***** bye
dear.
I left the house at few minutes to 11am. I
began to pray inside of me that Betty
shouldn’t find the jewelries. I called funmi
to inform her that I was coming and she
replied that she would start preparing the
lunch.
I board like 3 different buses before
getting to the estate where funmi lives.
while I was in the buses. I engaged in a
chat with segun.
ME: sege how far?. I’m on my way to
funmi’s house oooo
SEGE: nice one. what about your wife
Betty, where is she?.
ME: I left her at home.
SEGE: how far with what she wanted to
tell you?
ME: segun, it is complicated. seriously
complicated.
SEGE: really?, gist me
ME: **** narrated everything Betty told me
last night****
SEGE: hmmmmmmmm. truely
complicated. since she needed the MSC
very badly and you can’t sponsor her. I
think you should respect her opinion.
ME: segun. is that what you will say?. me
I’m even thinking of telling her to forget
about the Msc and stick to me.
SEGE: that’s not a good idea. this girl had
tried everything possible to make you
happy. she ran away from her father, been
a victim of betrayal, and so on. if having
her masters is what will make her happy,
then let her go for it. because if you
stopped her. it still doesn’t change the
fact that she has been detached from her
father. and I’m not sure you have the
resources to take care of her. so having
her masters will give her better chances of
landing a good job and you will be the
one to enjoy it on the long run.
ME: you think so?.
SEGE: yeah bro. for her to connect you to
where you work presently, then it shows
she has her own connections too. all she
needed is a better qualification.
ME: hmmmmmm. what about the new guy
that will be bleeping her. do you think I
will be able to cope with that?
SEGE: what about the girls you bleeped in
the past?, is it not a man that married
them?.
ME: and what is the correlation?
SEGE: you should even be happy that she
told you all these. it shows that she truely
loves you. its very strange for a
billionaire’s daughter to go against her
Father’s wish and settle for a poor boy
like you. onihaxy, forget what we see in
those movies, they don’t happen in real
world. dangote, otedola or adenuga’s
daughter will never settle for a hustler like
you. so please appreciate this girl and
wait for her. its for your own good.
ME: ok oooooo. I heard you. I will gist you
after the date.
SEGE: no yawa.. just remember the
tutorials I gave you and make sure you
don’t flop.
ME: yes boss.
I got to the estate and located funmi’s
residence. I placed my phone on silent as
I entered the compound. it was as nice
place with beautiful flowerings. she came
to meet me at the gate and we both
entered the living room. I looked around
and I saw her wedding pictures on the
wall. I also saw the pictures of her
children on the shelf. the room was
painted in a touch of red with nice
furniture’s. funmi left the living room and
called on a lady to give me a wine. from
her appearance, she must be funmi’s
maid.
I sat down on the chair for like 10
minutes after been entertained, looking
around the room when funmi came out
and called me to join her at the dining. I
stood up from the seat and joined funmi.
she opened the cover of the dishes and it
contained white rice and stocked stew, the
aroma coming out was superb. “I
prepared the meal myself. so let me
apologise in advance in case it’s not
delicious” says funmi. I looked into her
eyes and replied “from the look and
aroma of this stew, its definitely
delicious”. she smiled as she served the
meal and we started eating.
while eating, we had gists about alots of
things. ranging from work to family to
relationships, romance and so on, we
talked about lots things to the extent that
over two hours passed by.
by 4:30pm, I told funmi that I was going.
I was shocked when she stood up and
hugged me instead of the regular
handshakes. she went inside and came
back with 5000naira and gave me as
T.fare, I refused it but she lnsisted I take
it from her. i collected the money and bid
her goodbye.
I was walking towards the main entrance
of the estate. I brought out my phone
from my pocket and I saw 8 missed call
from Betty. I opened my bbm and I saw
pings and I got scared. I expanded the
bbm and replied her.
ME: hi dear. i got your pings and missed
calls.
BETTY: why aren’t you picking my calls?
ME: sorry dear. my phone was on silent
mode.
BETTY: no problems. hope you are fine
sha?
ME: yeah. and you?
BETTY: I’m good.. onihaxy, I saw your
chain when cleaning your room, you didn’t
tell me you have started using chains
because I never noticed any chain on you
since I met you.
ME:*** chain!!!! e don finally happen ****
don’t mind me jaree. it was one of our
staffs who forced it on me to buy from
her. she sells jewelries.
BETTY: ok dear. I also saw a wrist watch
belonging to aunty bimpe, how did it get
to your room?
ME: ***** see wahala oooooo******* who
told you its her watch?
BETTY: her trademark is on it. she always
inscribe “B” underneath all her
accessories.
ME: *****chai!!!!!!!!!!!!*******
