Re: 1985.... 1987.... 2014--[a Crime Story] by tecno4life(m): 9:36pm On Jun 21, 2015 |
The Thomas hmmm. Okay it's great but not just as good as Shadows from the past. Well you didn't tell me you were so hood in graphics designing. Score 98/100 The only one that needs touching is blood bond that font colours. All in a circle doesn't need touching it needs to be made from scratch, you know that pic looks too gimmicky or should I say cartoonish. Skimpledawg where my order add cow tail pepper soup. |

tecno4life: Equally sighted boss! D9ty7, I'm impressed. Basic, Simple and full of content. My favourite is The Thomas. The expression of the girl speaks volume |

But for da font colour to red, I think da first is very matured. It cn get matured readers. Ok I gett their quest for africans on da last two. Not racist but makes it real. Gud job. Personally, I like foreign novels n covers like da first two, contain classic stories. Gud job |

--continuation-- Tina sped on 'recklessly but carefully.' Covering the distance of 200km/hr, but at the same time paying attention to the traffic signs and lights, allowing other vehicles to overtake her, and at the same time overtaking other vehicles on the road. Even though she couldn't place why she was driving at such a high speed, because on a normal day, she shouldn't be running away from Daniel Martins or trying to escape from him, but thinking about the past and how it has contributed to shaping the present and most importantly, the future, she knew the only way she would be happy and fufilled is by keeping her distance from Daniel Martins, even if it requires her leaving her present apartment, quitting her job or leaving Lagos, in as much as it guarantees the much desired distance from the reach of Daniel. "Watch your way reckless woman." A motorist yelled at Tina who has lost concentration on the task at hand(driving off to avoid Daniel) Tina, out of fear and shock immediately swerved to avoid being hit or hitting any vehicle nearby. The car subsequently went into a deep pothole. "Oh my God!" She screamed as the car frame hit the groud so hard. Chris woke with a start. "Mum, what's going on?" "Nothing dear." Tina replied as she got herself together amd pulled unto the road conneting her house. Even though she knew driving home was a bad idea, she as well knew that giving Martin a run is sucidal. His presence alone is causing her a lot of distractions. And distraction while driving is what every legal car user tries to avoid. She honked the car twice once she was a few houses away from her apartment and immediately, Daniel overtook her for the first time and parked just in front of her gate. Being his first time in the estate, Daniel had no idea of which of the houses was hers or the particular flat where she lived. But he assumed a four flat storey building to be her house since after she honked, a young man opened the gate, hence, his reason for going up to park at the entrance. "Excuse me Mister. Are you driving in or what?" The man who opened the gate asked, but Daniel ignored him. "Am not here for you." Daniel thought. Immediately Daniel moved to block the entrance with his super expensive car, Tina considered swinging her car sideways and driving out of estate or swinging to reverse, but a quick thought of what may happen made her match on the break, and switching of the ignition. Knowing the type of person Daniel was, she knew him as someone who would never cave-in except when his conviction told him to do so. She knew it would be difficult to get the better of him this time around. Slowly, she alighted the car and moved towards the gate. "Mummy Chris, Welcome." The young man who opened the gate said. "Thank you Mr Obi. You closed early from work today or you didn't go at all?" Tina asked. "Am actually on leave." The man replied. "Its your time, enjoy." Tina laughed. "So, this man here, should I get the copper occupying the top floor and his friends to come throw him out with his car or I should get the copper and his friends to throw him out?" "Don't worry, I can handle him." "Don't hesitate to call on us. Hello Chris." The man replied before waving at Chris who responded lazily. Daniel opened his car door for the first time and alighted. "What do you want?" Tina attacked. "I came to talk." "And what makes you think I'll be interested in your talks?" She asked. "Chris! Go inside." Tina said to his son who grudginly dragged his feet out of the car and towards the gate. "Hello Chris." Daniel said. "Hello Mr Martins." Chris replied giving his mother a knowing look. Sure that Chris was out of earshot, she attacked Daniel once again "What exactly is your problem? What do you want with me?" Its a different thing to be tutored by an expert and a whole different thing to be tutored by an expert in the way 'experts' do things. After a couple of heavy classes behind close doors, Daniel can boast of having learnt from his 'buddy' Jimmy. Slowly, he went down on his knees, an act he learnt from Jimmy 'the don' himself. According to Jimmy, no sane lady enjoys seeing her man on his knees pleading for a favour or begging for forgiveness. According to him, as a man, it is important to watch her(the lady) first time reaction to you going on your knees, but in the case of Nigerian girls who enjoys nothing but seeing their man suffer, instead of kneeling down, the man should probably prostrate and roll on the ground. "Am sorry Tina." Public display of attention, romantic gestures in public and other attention vices was one thing Tina was weak at. And she doubted her strong-will to reject Daniel no matter what. --to be continued-- 4 Likes |
