Ekanem goes straight into her room and avoids any unnecessary conversation with Chichi. She takes a cold bath and puts her favourite music on . “I will be happy, no matter what. I don’t need any guy to determine my state of mind or control my emotions “, she says to herself as she goes through her lecture notes. She finishes her with her work in less than an hour and slips under her quilt. Ekanem must have dozed off for about 10 minutes when she heard a voice call her name. She struggles to open her eyes and mumbles” yes! “. She feels a tap on her lap which makes her open her eyes. “What are you doing here? . Who brought you into my room ? “,she says to Toks. “Your flat mate let me in”,he replies with a smile. Ekanem sighs and looks away. Toks taps her again and says “Ekanem we need to talk!” . “So finally you agree that we need to talk. I am so tired of this mind game that I don’t have the strength to talk”, Ekanem replies. “Ekanem, I need to leave town for sometime” , Toks says to her. “Okay! , before you leave, can you please tell me who you are. I feel like I am talking to a stranger. The Toks I met at the café has disappeared”, she replies with sadness in her eyes. “Don’t say that love. I love you deeply and I always will”,Toks says to her . “Why do you have to travel now ? “She replies. “My dad is terminally ill. The cancer has spread to his major organs .His doctor says that he doesn’t have much time left.He wants his family to be with him at this time”,Toks says to her . “I am so sorry to hear about your dad’s health. I agree with your decision to spend some time with him” ,Ekanem replies. My dad is a very wealthy and influential king. My mum had my elder sister, my twin brother and I. Unfortunately, my brother who was the older twin died few years ago from complications of surgery. My mum and dad currently live in Anambra state. Ifeoma, my elder sister lives with her family in New Jersey. I am the heir to the throne”,Toks says with a straight face. “Why are you telling me all these now?.Why did you pretend to me all these while? “,Ekanem replies as she looks into his eyes. ” I just wanted to be sure that you loved me first before unleashing all my baggage on you.The other ladies in my past stuck around because of the money and fame. The ones from rich homes wanted more power”he says to Ekanem. “Who owns Ryan’s coffee shop?”Ekanem asks. ” I started the coffee shop 2years ago when I relocated from the US after completing my PhD. Dad made sure that I went to ivy league schools because he wanted me to get the best education /training required to rule and run the family business. The family business is seperate from the coffee shop and the new restaurant ” ,he says to her. Ekanem looks at his handsome face as he tells her all about himself. She doesn’t doubt her love for him but the revelation of him being the heir to the throne makes her somewhat disturbed. “Come with me to see dad”, he says to her excitedly . "I am sorry for treating you so badly. I am not dealing with dad's ill health very well. When I saw you with that guy after pleading with you earlier on to explain myself, I felt really hurt and betrayed. I also had to get a new female manager to run the café and restaurant in my absence ", he says to Ekanem. 1 Like |

Ekanem holds his hands while looking at him . "Talk to me" Toks says to her with a smile that melts her heart. "I have never met a guy as wonderful as you Toks. I don't know if I ever will. You are my soul mate and I can boldly say that I love you", Ekanem says to him with a soft voice. "Aaaaw, that's so sweet darling!" , Toks replies as he takes her into his arms. Ekanem releases herself from his grip after some seconds. "What's wrong? ", Toks says to her with curiosity in his eyes. "I don't know how to say this Toks", she replies . "Say what ?" , Toks says to her . "I don't think this relationship will work" ,Ekanem replies. "Are you dating someone else ?" Toks asks . "No ! "She replies hurriedly . "I don't want to date someone at this age if it doesn't lead to marriage. I have always wanted to live a simple life. I don't think I want to be the wife of the heir to the throne. What would happen to my teaching? . My life would be in the public eye",she says to him . "You are kidding me", Toks replies. "I am very serious. I love you so much but I don't think we shall be happy together", she says to him. "Let me be the judge of that" ,Toks replies and walks out on her. Toks angrily leaves the Ekanem's house and goes home. Chichi comes out of her room to meet Ekanem. "Please who is that handsome dude?" , she asks Ekanem . "That's the dispatch rider you told me to stay away from "Ekanem replies with sarcasm. "He came here in an SUV, his accent, confidence and of course his goodlooks made me open the door for him" ,she says to Ekanem with a smile. "You better not allow robbers into this house one day", Ekanem replies . " I am serious though, who is he? ", Chichi asks . Ekanem narrates her history with Toks and tells her that he just walked away from her life. Ekanem permit me to say this "you are so silly! !" , Chichi says to her. "Hmmm, you just don't understand me",Ekanem replies. "A good catch wants to take you to see his dad who is ill and you refused, do you want to stay single forever? All because you don't want to become royalty. Are you sure that you don't have cerebral malaria? "She says to Ekanem. Ekanem refuses to reply Chichi .She goes into her room and forces herself to go to sleep. She buries herself in school work. Ekanem tries unsuccessfully to push thoughts of Toks away. After one week of not hearing from him,she accepts the dinner invitation from Kola. " I have to move on .I know that he will never be like Toks but at least I could have a normal life with him", she says to herself. Ekanem puts on a beautiful emerald coloured long dress with gold accessories. Her beautiful face hardly needed any make up but she applied something light nonetheless. She sits down beside Chichi as she waits for kola to arrive. Kola rings the bell shortly afterwards and Ekanem opens the door. They both walk towards his car. As she enters inside his car, she sees Richard driving in. Ekanem waits for him to come out of his vehicle. "Hi Richie! , I am on my way out with a friend", she says to him. "Oh okay! I will just hang out with Chichi, if that's not a problem "he replies. "No , it's not an issue" Ekanem says to him and enters Kola's car. Richard rings the door bell .Chichi opens the door and says" oh!you just missed Ekanem. She left a few minutes ago". "I came to see you not her" , he replies with a smile. "Are you sure of what you are saying?" , she says to him. 3 Likes |

"I am serious dear" , Richard says to Chichi. They both sit down on the sofa . "Do you have a preferred TV channel?", Chichi says him as she picks up the remote control from the stool beside her. "What's that on the dining table?", Richard asks while looking into that direction . "Oh ! that is my ludo game. Do you remember ludo? Or are you too sophisticated to know the game?" , she says to him jokingly . "Chichi bring that game here ! , I will show you who the master of the game is", he replies with a mischievous smile. After an hour of playing the game, Chichi says to him "I need to go to the shop close by to pick some toiletries before they close for the day". "Don't tell me it's because I beat you back to back", Richard says with a smile. " I just allowed you to win. After all you are my guest", she says with a charming smile on her face. " I could escort you ,if you don't mind", Richard replies. "Okay! ,you are going to carry all the bags. That's your punishment for winning me in my own house", she says to him in a playful manner. "Yes madam Chichi", he replies jokingly. Chichi wears a comfortable foot wear and goes with Richard to the shop. He waits for her to place the toiletries in her room before saying "I have to go home now dear.I had a great time ". " I had fun too", Chichi replies. "Can I have your phone number ? ",he asks. Chichi gives him her number as sees him off to his car. They both say goodnight to each other and Chichi walks back into the house whistling like a love struck teenager. Dinner turns out to be better than Ekanem expects. She enjoys her delicious meal and fine wine served in one of the best restaurants in Lagos. Kola's sanguine nature helped to make the outing even more interesting. He always had stories and analogies to make. They both get into Kola's car after dinner. As he drives her home, he says to her; "I am so glad that I agreed to the blind date. I hated the idea initially because I actually like to be in charge of things like that. I am happy that Chioma insisted ". "Hmm " ,Ekanem replies. " I am like an open book Ekanem, What you see ,is what you get.I am not here to play. I like you a lot. Can you give me a chance to know you better? , he says to her. "Okay! I actually admire your honesty, let's just take our time to get to know each other better", she replies. They arrive at her house. Kola walks her to the door .He hugs her and says" I will call you before you go to bed". "Okay, thanks for a great evening", she replies. Ekanem enters her house and meets Chichi cleaning up the kitchen. "You are welcome lover girl!" , Chichi says to Ekanem. " I should be calling you that. For Richard to come to the house without calling me to inform me.Hmmm, is there something that you are not telling me? , Ekanem replies with a straight face. "There is nothing going on between Richie and I", she says in a fidgety manner. "You know that you can always tell me when you are ready " ,Ekanem replies . "Forget about me for now.How about Toks? ", have you heard from him? , Chichi asks Ekanem. "Yes ! ,he sent me a text message apologising for walking out on me. He blamed it on the emotional trauma he is currently facing" ,Ekanem replies. "So what are you going to do now?.This guy really cares about you Eky", Chichi says to her. 4 Likes |

"I care about him Chichi", Ekanem says to her." The problem is that I am not sure that I want to live a life that would be under constant scrutiny, it would entail my abandoning everything I have worked so hard for all these years", Ekanem says to her with sadness . "Does it really matter? I think the real issue here is fear .You are so scared of giving your heart to a guy.You will both eventually figure out how you will handle your career "; Chichi replies. "Why should I be scared?Meanwhile I am sure that Toks would be angry with me for not going with him to see his dad who is very ill", she says to Chichi. "It's not too late dear , first of all, you need to stop leading that Chioma's guy on and make effort to see the guy you really love ",Chichi replies. " I feel terrible for not going with him. What if he doesn't take me back?", Ekanem says to Chichi. "It won't hurt to try first ",Chichi says to her. Ekanem nods her head in agreement and goes into her room to retire for the day. Just as she lies on the bed after taking a bath, she gets a call from Kola. "Hi dear", he says to her. "Hi kola", she replies . " I hope you are resting? .I had a great day, thanks to you", he says to her . "Thank you. I was actually about to sleep before your call came in" ,she replies. "Oh! Okay, let me allow you sleep then.Goodnight dear", he says to her. "Good night " ,she replies. Ekanem wakes up the following .She is glad that the Christmas holidays start the following day because of her plans to go in search of Toks. As she walks towards her car after giving her last lecture for the year, she gets a call from Richard. "Hi Ekanem! , are you free at the moment?" , he says to her . " I am actually about to go home. I hope you are okay? " , she replies with a soft voice. "I will meet you at the parking lot in less than 2 minutes", he says to her and ends the conversation. Ekanem enters her car and scrolls through her social media messages. She wonders what Richard wants to say to her in such a hurry. He finally gets to her car and knocks on the driver's car window to alert her of his presence. "Hey Richie! ", she says to him as he opens the front passenger's seat for him to enter the vehicle. "Hi gorgeous! .How was your day? ", he replies. "Not bad at all " ,she says to him. "Ekanem what plans do you have for the holiday? ", he asks with a smile. "I don't have clear cut plans yet" , she replies. "If you aren't travelling to stay with your family, we could visit a resort close to Lagos this holiday", he says to her. "That sounds fun but I don't think it's such a good idea", she replies. "Why not?" , he replies. "Richard we have been best of friends for some time now.I don't really understand what kind of game you are playing", she says to him. "What game Eky? I do not understand what you are talking about", he replies. "You asked me out some months back and you are currently getting close to Chichi, not that it bothers me anyway. I just want to be sure that you know what you want", she says to him. "Do I smell jealousy in the air ? ",he replies with a mischievous smile on his face. "Far from it Richie! ", she says to him. "Well Ekanem if you must know. I am tired!.I am tired of watching you go out with other men. I am tired of watching you give your heart and attention to someone else when I who has been your best friend is left to scramble for the few minutes we spend together. I love you so much that it hurts.I decided to get close to your house mate to test your love for me.I thought that perhaps you would be jealous of our closeness or better still get angry when you see Chichi talking to me over the phone", he says to her with a loud voice . "Wow!" ,Ekanem replies with shock written all over her face. " I guess that's all you have to say after watching me make fool of myself", he says to her with sadness in his eyes. "Richie! Calm down! ", she replies. "It's okay Ekanem. It's crystal clear that you can never love me" , he says to Ekanem. " I love you as a". ..Ekanem replies . "As a brother, isn't it? ", he says to her. "Goodbye! Ekanem", he says to her as he tries to leave the car. Ekanem goes after him and holds his hand. "I need you to keep being my best friend and brother .I can't bear to loose you Richie!" , she says to him with a soft voice. 3 Likes |
