“O boy! Na wetin? Wetin happen?” John, Ekene’s friend shouted as he entered Ekene’s room and saw empty bottles of alcohol and cigarettes AK over the place.
Ekene was smoking one with his back on his bed and a half filled alcohol in his other hand.
“I dey ask you.” John said.
“Boy you no go understand. I dey go find my babe. She no fit leave me. Amanda no fit leave me.” Ekene said.

The newly lovers spent half of their night in the sitting room, watching movies while cuddling each other.
And when they finally went upstairs to retire to bed, Amanda got to her bedroom door and turned to Desmond.
“Goodnight,” she said.
Desmond was holding her hand and when she said that, he smiled and kissed her. “Goodnight my love,” he said and released her hand.
He watched her enter the room and close the door very slowly. When it finally closed, he breathed out happily as he looked at the closed door.
He felt like not letting her go tonight.
He felt like going in and holding her tightly till morning comes.
Every moment they had shared cuddling each other in the sitting room had kicked up another undying feeling.
He will have her for the rest of his life. Such a woman is damn rare to find.
He felt like not going to his room, but wish to spend the rest of the night with the woman that he love.
He breathed out again then turned to head to his room. He had walked only two steps when he heard Amanda’s room door open.
He stopped, wondering if it’s the door that actually opened.
He had to be sure, so he turned to see and there she was at the door with one hand holding the doorknob.
There was a soft and tender look on her face that made his heart skip in an excited way without him knowing why.
He took two steps towards and looked into her eyes as he asked. “You want to get something downstairs?”
Amanda shook her head and answered “No.”
She wondered what is wrong with her.
She hopes what she is about to do won’t be a regret later.
She is about acting so immature again. She hopes this bring a stronger bond to their relationship.
She isn’t drunk. She wants to do this with her eyes and mind cleared.
She hopes that she’s doing the right thing but another side of her wants her to stop but she don’t want to.
“Are you okay?” Desmond asked as he took another closer step.
“Yeah I’m fine…think I.. No, I’m okay.” she said and instantly closed the door, back in her room. She dropped herself at the door and breathed out.
“Ah I’m so insane. What was I thinking?” she asked herself.
Desmond got frightened with her actions and began knocking on the door but she didn’t respond.
“If you have something to tell me sweetie, I promise to listen to you. Please open the door if you are okay.” he said.
Amanda sighed. “I’m fine. Goodnight.” she said, walked to her bed and laid down.
Desmond sighed Alon hearing her answer. “It’s okay my love. But if you wanna talk to me, I’ll give a listening ear.” Desmond said.
He got no answer
After waiting for few minutes, he breathed out and said. “Goodnight love.” with that, he turned and went into his room.
“”””””””””
The time was was 2:35am when Amanda sprang up from the bed, sweating even though the air condition was on.
She had a dream.
She couldn’t even wait for a second, she got down from her bed, barefooted as she ran out of her room and to Desmond’s. Without even knocking, she opened the door which Desmond didn’t bother to lock and rushed in.
Seeing Desmond sleeping soundly on the king sized bed. She pushed her hair back and breathed in relief.
‘What kind of dream was that?’
She stood and watched for a while and then turned to leave when he called her name.
“Amanda”
She halted, turned and saw his eyes open and looking at her.
She got a bit frightened. “I..I thought you were asleep.” she said.
He shook his head with a smile and gestured her to come. “Come over and stay with me, I had a bad dream and woke up only to see you in here. Don’t go please.” he said.
“Bad dream?” she asked.
“Yes but stay here with me and everything will be alright.” he said.
She slowly walked to the bed and sat down at the edge. “I had a bad dream too.”
He sat up and backhugged her.
“It’s okay. Whatever the dream was. It’s never gonna happen. We can pray against it right?” he asked.
Amanda nodded her head.
Desmond smiled and released the hug.
“Get your legs in my love. Turn to me, let’s hold hands together and pray.”
Amanda did as he said and he took her hands in his.
Amanda was stunned by what he said they should do. Some men would only say ‘it’s a dream’ but the wealthy guy facing her right now, had taken her hands and said ‘Let’s pray against it’
What a man!
“Let’s pray.” Desmond said.
“Don’t you want to hear the dream and I hear urs first then we pray?” Amanda asked.
Desmond smiled and squeezed her hand softly. “You don’t need to tell me about it. The God we are about to pray to knows about it already and would cancel such from becoming a reality,” he said.
Amanda stared at him amazingly before nodding her head. Both stared into each other’s eyes.
“Close your eyes.” he said to her and she did. He closed his.
“In Jesus name” he began.
“Amen” Amanda answered.
___________________________
Amanda rubbed her eyes and gently opened it.
Yes she was in Desmond’s room and on his bed.
She turned to the side Desmond had laid but he was not there anymore nor in the room.
She could feel and see the ray of the sun from the window curtain.
‘Sun??’ she looked at the wall clock and gasped when she saw the time. 9:19am
She quickly sat up and removed the duvet off her body.
As she stood up to rush out to Odeya’s room, the door opened and Desmond came in with a tray of tea and slices of bread.
“Hey babe, come on, have a sit. Good morning.” he said.
“I..I’m so sorry I overslept.” Amanda said.
“It’s okay babe, sit back down and have this.” he said.
“Amanda looked at the tray and then at him. “Ain’t you going to work and what about Odeya?”
“I will and I’ve taken care of Odeya and she’s downstairs watching a movie. She says you should get enough rest.” Desmond said. Amanda carried the tray and settled back down on the bed.
“Thank you so much.. But you- ” she was saying but he placed a finger on her lips.
“Don’t say that. I had fun making this. You’ve had sleepless nights at the hospital, taking care of Deya. Now, you need as much rest as you want.” he said.
Amanda smiled. “Thank you so much” she said and took a sip.
“Hmm, sweet” she said.
Desmond smiled and kissed her on the cheek. “Don’t come out until you are done with that. I’m downstairs doing some cleaning.” he said.
Amanda stood up immediately. “What? Why. I could have done that, not you.”
“Sometimes, its fun cleaning” he said and with that, he kissed her forehead and headed to the door. Getting there, he turned. “I love you Amanda.” he said and didnt wait for her to reply before walking out and closing the door.
Amanda stared at the closed door, exhaled and said quietly. “I love you too Desmond.”4
”
Desmond got downstairs and Odeya on seeing him said. “Dad, I can hear some noise outside at the gate, I think the gate keeper is exchanging words with someone.”
Desmond paid attention and when he heard the noise, he took out his phone and made a call to I.K.
I.K who blocked the gate with his whole body felt his phone ringing in his pocket.
He looked at Ekene and eyed him.
“Wait, my phone dey ring. I know say na my oga. If I pick this call now, na police station you go find yourself if you no carry this your takalami comot from this area this minute!” I.K threatened.
Ekene flared up. “Tell that your oga make him come out, with my babe. If he no want make I kill am, bury am today.”
“Who you dey talk. You don forget wey you dey? Wait first.” I.k said then got out his phone and picked it up.
“Yes, na my oga. Hello oga!”
“Yes I.k, what’s happening there?”
“Hm Oga, na wan idiot o. He say make you come out with Amanda – eh, sorry, Madam. Shey she be him babe.. Say if you no do so, he go kill you and bury you but Oga sir. Don’t worry. I go deal with am. Na small boy”
“What’s his name. Get his names and tell him to wait for me. I’m coming.” Desmond said.
“Bia, wetin be your names? My oga say make you wait am, him dey come.”
“Tell Amanda say Ekene don come. I dey wait am.”
“Oga.. Him say him name na Ekene. I talk am say people way dey answer Ekene no get brain”
“I will be out. Tell him to calm down and wait for me.” Desmond said and dropped the call.
“””””””””””””””””””””””””””””””””””””””””””

“Darling, I will be right back OK, stay here,” Desmond told Deya, kissed her cheek and walked out the exit door.
He got outside and walked over to the gate. The pedestrian side was closed too so he tried opening but couldn’t. I.K’s hand was holding the knob strongly.
“I.k, open the gate,” Desmond said.
I.K immediately did and Desmond came out.
“You should have let him in rather than disturbing the whole neighbourhood.” Desmond said and then looked at Ekene who was burning in fierce. His red eyes on him. He stood like a lion timing his prey to devour.
“Hey, calm down,” Desmond said.
Ekene chuckled.
“You know Amanda?” Desmond asked.
“Amanda na my girlfriend,” Ekene said.
Desmond hieved. “That’s okay. Come in.”
“Take me to Amanda. She dey go with me,” Ekene said.
They were going in when Amanda came outside.
She had come downstairs and was told by Odeya about the situation outside.
Wondering who the person might be, she had walked out only to be shocked at the person walking towards her. Ekene.
‘What is he doing here? How did he find out about here?’ She asked herself as she stood staring at him.
Ekene saw her and rushed towards her, getting to her, he tried grabbing her in a hug but Amanda pushed him off with all her might.
“Get the hell off me!” she barked.
“Ah ah! What is it Amandy baby.. It’s me Ekene, your one and only.. What happened? Why you leave me and come here ehn. Na because of his money abi.”
“Shut up Ekene.. Just shut up!” Amanda hurled. Looking at Desmond, she could see a little disappointment written on his face.
Will he understand if she explains to him?
“This man you see here, shey you know where him money dey come from? Na this kind people wey dey marry, Use their wife do ritual.” Ekene said and Amanda gave him a slap across his face.
“How dare you talk such rubbish!”
Desmond who heard him also moved towards and in a very calm voice, said.
“I will let what you say pass if you leave my house now and don’t show ur face again or you’ll get arrested and bring a proof of I being a ritualist.”
Ekene laughed.
“I.K! Come and take this man out of my house.” Desmond called.
“Yes sir!” I.K rushed forward and grabbed Ekene but one punch from Ekene sent I.k flying down with his hand on his nose. He was already bleeding on the nose.
Desmond quickly took out his phone and called the police.
“Police no fit do me anything. Amanda let’s go. You dey go with me.” Ekene bragged and tried going to Amanda again but Desmond rushed between and gave him a punch that made him stagger back. Even Amanda was shocked at the very punch.
Desmond’s body isn’t just for fancy. Is he this strong too?
I.k who had managed to get up rushed to his back, grabbed Ekene’s two hands and held them both tightly behind him.
“You no know who you dey play with ehn, my Oga go show you.” I.k said.
Ekene tried releasing his hands but couldn’t.
“Get inside Amanda,” Desmond said to Amanda who was feeling pity for Ekene.
“No please let him go, don’t get him arrested.” She said.
“That’s what he want.” Desmond said and just then, they heard the sound of siren. The police were already there.
The gate opened and the four police entered.
“Are you okay, Mr Okoye?” One asked.
“Get him arrested and keep him there until I change my mind.” Desmond said.
“No please Desmond, don’t let them take him away. We can sort this out.” Amanda said.
Desmond looked at her, “Do you still feel something for him?”
She shook her head. “No, I don’t…but..”
“We need to talk. Come with me,” Desmond said, and grabbed her hand. Then he turned to I.K who was still bleeding in the nose. “Come take some money and go treat yourself.”
I.K kept threatening as they handcuffed him and took him away.
“Na me you arrest ehn. I go show you who I be. Amanda na me and you. You no fit leave me. I go come for you..”
“Mr man, move!” They hurled at him.
…………..
(An hour later )
“I’m sorry I didn’t tell you about Ekene.. He broke my heart. I caught him so many times with women. It was only two months ago that I gave up and broke up with him. I was happy when I became very far from him. I had no idea he will come looking for me.. I have no feelings for him again.. And I will never do.” Amanda said as she and Desmond were in his room.
Desmond pulled her closer and placed her head on his chest.
“It’s okay baby.. I’m sorry for reacting that way to you. I trust you Amanda and I plan a great future for you and I. Nothing can come in between us.” Desmond said and kissed her forehead.
Amanda sighed. “But I’m scared. Ekene can do terrible things. He might come back.” she said.
“He’s in the police station Amanda. You don’t have to worry. I will handle this myself.
“I can’t let you handle it alone..” Amanda said as she took his hand and brought up her face as they stared into each other’s eyes. “Let’s settle this together.”
Desmond smiled and kissed her, she kissed back and the kiss continued. Soon, Desmond was on top Amanda and he was kissing her down to her neck. It was starting to get tense when a knock came on the door.
Amanda pushed Desmond off immediately and got up.
“Deya, she must be hungry or something.” she said and was rushing to the door when Desmond grabbed her hand.
“Sit.. I will go attend to her.” he said and went to the door instead. Opening it, it was deya on her wheelchair.
“Baby, what’s the matter?” he asked.
“I would like to go stay with grandma for a day or two, can I?” she asked.
Desmond hesitated before answering. “Of course you can.”
Deya smiled.
__________________________________________
(8 hours Later)
Desmond and Amanda were returning from Lady Monica’s house. They had went there with Deya five hours ago and are now returning back home.
Lady Monica was so overwhelmed to see them and said ‘its best if Deya stay with her for at least a week to give both of them enough privacy.’
But Deya was going to come back in two days time.
“Don’t forget about Gold too. You need to see her and tender your forgiveness. Do that tomorrow or next.” Lady Monica reminded Desmond.
..
“So when are you going to see Gold?” Amanda asked him as they drove home.
“Next tomorrow. We go together.” Desmond said.
Amanda smiled. “Thank you for finally accepting to forgive her ” She said.
“I have no other option.” He said.
“Should we stop at that eatery for dinner?” he asked.
“No. I will prepare dinner. I will be quick.” Amanda said.
Desmond laughed. “Ah wife material.”
They both laughed.
[Written by Rejoice Jeremiah ] “””””””””””””””””””””
(3 hours later)
“Goodnight.” Amanda said as she tried turning to her room but Desmond grabbed her hand.
“No, you stay with me tonight.” he said.
“Thought you had some documents to work on, won’t I be some disturbance?” She asked.
“I can do them tomorrow. And what kind of disturbance do you mean?” he asked, smiling.
Amanda looked down, shyly and the next thing, Desmond carried her.
She gasped with wide eyes. “What..are you doing Desmond?”
“Carrying my wife to bed,” Desmond said.
“I’m not your wife yet.” she said.
“I don’t wanna know,” Desmond said as he dropped her on the bed. “Oh my! You are quite heavy baby.. You need to massage my arms for that,” he said jokingly.
” Just stay with me tonight,” he added after.
“Where’s the pillow demarcation sef.. Where e go?” he joked as he used to pillow to create a wall between them.
Amanda smiled shyly. Desmond rolled the duvet over their body and then turned off the bedside lamb.
“Sleep baby, goodnight.” he said and closed his eyes.
“Goodnight,” Amanda said.
Desmond opened his eyes after awhile.
“Tonight seems kinda cold, right?” he asked.
“Yes, a bit” Amanda answered.
“Do you like cold weather?” he asked.
“Yes, sometimes. And you?” she asked.
“Sometimes too.” Desmond answered.
Then came silence.
Desmond suddenly felt the movement of the duvet and turned to Amanda. She had sat up, rolled the duvet off her body and got up from the bed and stood with her back on Desmond.
“Are you okay Baby? Want something?” he asked as he turned on the lamp
But she gave no answer but then he saw her take off the right sleeve of her night dress, then the other. Her back still on him.
Desmond couldn’t help the feeling that went through his spine Amanda’s night dress fell to her feet to reveal her beautiful and succulent dark body, with only a red net pantie left on.
Desmond swallowed hard at the sight. He couldn’t believe Amanda was doing this.
He wanted to stay a long wait because he really respect her but here she is, willing to offer her body to him without giving him a long wait.
He will never treat this woman bad.
She deserve all he have.
“B..baby” he called in a sensual voice.
“I’m waiting for you,” Amanda said without turning.
Desmond rolled the duvet off his body, stood up from the bed and slowly walked to her.. Getting to her.. He placed his shaking hands on her back, then walked it down to her hip.. He kissed her back then her neck. Then turned her around to face him.
“What you are doing to me Amanda… I’m speechless. What are you thinking? Do you really want to do this?” he asked.
“Yes, I want to.. I want to because I trust you and believe you so much.. I can’t help it, I’m in love with you too Desmond.” Amanda said.
Desmond could feel hot blood running in his vein.
His eyes gazed down to her succulent b**bs.
He looked up at her beautiful face and lips and giving a groan of “I love you Baby,” he crushed his lips on hers.
It was a night of bliss.
_________________________________
(8:00am )
Amanda woke up to see Desmond standing with a saucer and tea cup. Just like yesterday.
He was already dressed for work.
“Sleepy head,” he called, smiling at her.
“I’m so sorry. What’s the time?” she asked as she sat up.
“8’o’clock. Going to work pretty late. Here,” he said and handed her the tea.
“Thank you again today. I’m sorry I couldn’t wake up on time to prepare you breakfast.” she said.
“Don’t say that twice. How do you feel?” he asked.
Amanda smiled. “I feel good.”
Desmond smiled and kissed her on the forehead.
“I’m sorry I’m leaving you so early, I promise to be home as early as possible. Whatever you need, make an order. There’s enough cash inside the third drawer. I love you so much my love,” he said, kissed her again then carried his briefcase.
“I love you too,” she said.
She watched him leave with a perfect smile on her face.
“””
Desmond called I.K at the gate.
“Don’t let anyone in while I’m out, if it’s a delivery man, take the delivery here on the gate. Don’t let him in. Attend to anything she needs. Understood?”
“Yes sir,” I.k who had a plaster on his nose answered.
“How are you feeling?” Desmond asked him.
“I’m fine oga.” he said.
“You’ll get your salary today,” Desmond said.
I.k jumped up. “Thank you Oga. Thank you.
Desmond drove off with smiles on his face.

Two Years Later
April 4th, 2018.
“Deyaa, Deya… Are you in there?” Amanda asked as she got to Odeya’s room and opened the door to see Odeya who’s now seven years old sitting on her bed and drawing on a drawing book.
“Oh my Deya.. What are you doing? Have you forgotten today’s your sister and brother’s birthday. You should be helping dad and mom downstairs. Don’t be so unfair, come with me darling.” Amanda said and walked to Deya. Then she saw what she’s been drawing.
A drawing picture of them. Deya, she, Desmond and the twins, Regina and Roddy. Even though it wasn’t a perfect drawing, Amanda knew it was a drawing of them.
“It’s beautiful, wow” She said.
“Yeah.. but I’m unfinished yet. Give me some more time,” Deya said.
“That’s okay, come downstairs soon baby,” Amanda said and walked out.
“”
“Where’s Odeya?” Lady Monica asked as Amanda was coming downstairs.
Lady Monica was carrying a crying Roddy. Amanda’s mom had Regina at the kitchen with Chioma and Gold.
Desmond, Ekene, Peter and I.K with the help of two other guys, were decorating the sitting room.
“She’s busy in her room,” Amanda answered.
“He needs food Daughter in law” Lady Monica said with a smiling face.
“I know, he eats a lot. Sometimes I feel sorry for my breasts.”Amanda said.
“You’d stop breastfeeding him from next week. So also his sister.” Lady Monica said.
“I hope so mom,” Amanda said and carried Roddy. “I will be back soon,” she added and returned upstairs to her matrimonial room.
Lady Monica returned back to the kitchen.
“Where’s my wife?” Desmond asked his mom as he was coming out from the kitchen.
“Busy with Roddy.” she answered and entered the kitchen.
“Hey everyone, how is it going?” she asked.
“Good, good.” Gold and Chioma answered at the same time.
Regina who was on the floor beside Amanda mom’s legs ran to Lady Monica and she carried her.
“Oh my sweetie. Today is a special day for you. You are plus one, do you know that? I’m sure you do.” she said and pecked Gina.
Amanda’s mom stood up to help the ladies.
Just then a phone began ringing.
It turned out to be Gold’s phone.
She picked it from the breakfast bar and answered.
“Hello dear,”
“Yeah, I dropped it at the second drawer. You can’t find it?”
“Oh you just did, alright. Bye bye, be home early for the party OK?”
“Alright. Love you..”
The call ended and she dropped back the call.
“He was looking for something?” Chioma asked.
“Yeah, his car keys. Felix don’t mind where he drop things when he return from the office. I keep them safe.” Gold said.
.
Chioma laughed. “Same as Collins. I hope my child doesn’t become as careless as his father,” she said and rubbed her growing stomach.
Gold smiled. “My fiancé is worse babe. It’s just two months to our wedding. I hope he doesn’t misplace our ring that day.”
Both ladies laughed.
“I reject such! Chuckwu jukwa..” Lady Monica said and they bursted into a heavy laughter.
“””
At the sitting room, the five men were busy… It is going to be a family and friends party but it was a huge preparation.
The door opened and Henry and Jimi walked in with shopping bags. Jeremy was the last to come in.
“Hi everyone,” Jeremy said and without waiting, turned towards the staircase. He knew that’s where Deya would be. In her room.
Desmond chuckled a really sweet chuckle before turning back to Henry and Jimi.
“Welcome guys. Got them all?”
“Yes, we did.” Henry answered.
“Good. I need to use the bathroom, excuse me. Be back in a jiffy.” Desmond said and took off to upstairs.
He was able to meet up with Jeremy.
“What’s that in the bag?” he asked him.
“I can’t tell you. You’d find out later,” Jeremy said.
“Oh well, but I know it’s for Deya right?” Desmond said.
“Oh well, yea.” Jeremy said.
Desmond smiled.
Jeremy got to Deya’s room, knocked first then opened and went in.
Desmond opened his and went in to meet Amanda breastfeeding Roddy.
“He’s never get tired of that.” Desmond joked.
“That’s men for you. Don’t pretend like you don’t know,” Amanda said.
“Don’t say that again bae” Desmond laughed and entered the bathroom.
“””””””
“You like it?” Jeremy asked as Deya stared at the hairband.
“Yeah, it’s beautiful.. Thanks Jeremy” Deya said and fixed it on her hair.
“So what are you drawing?” Jeremy asked as he jumped on the bed.
“Family, but I’m adding you too,” Deya said.
Both looked at each other and smiled.
{Written by Rejoice Jeremiah ] “”””””””””””””””””””””””
Desmond was in the restroom when his phone rang, he took it out and it’s a text message
From an anonymous number.
Hi Desmond, I have nothing much to write here. I just wanna wish your lovely kids a beautiful happy birthday. They are just a beauty to behold and I wish them a great life and happiness. Happy birthday Gina and Roddy.
Desmond knew immediately who the message is from.
Vanessa.
He smiled and headed out of the restroom to show his wife.
