“This one is not pregnancy matter jare. Shebi you saved some money on hotel accommodation? We will go shopping on Saturday, I’ll make Ben drive us.”
“But I’m going back tomorrow…”
“Lai lai! Never! When did you get here? You haven’t even spent one day and you want to go?” Ronke said, sounding hurt. “Am I chasing you?”
“I got here on Sunday, now its Thursday, that’s a whole 4 days here. It’s not you, its work, I have to teach Amanda on Saturday.”
“Okay, send a message to Dr whatever and tell him you’ll resume on Monday and….”
“…..I don’t want to talk to him again!”
“Let me hear word jor! You’ll talk to him and prove him wrong about you! Send him a message, we will go shopping on Saturday, then you’ll go back on Sunday.”
“Roooonke, I don’t…….”
“Please now, consider my pregnant state and Ben is a terrible husband, he’s really maltreating me” Ronke wheedled.
“Fine, let me see more of Ben’s maltreatment” Femi sighed, “I will send him a message.”
“Yes!” Ronke shouted. “By the time I’m done with you, you’ll also send him to the grave- with a heart attack.” She smiled wolfishly.

Good evening sir. I’m sorry I wouldn’t be able to make Amanda’s class tomorrow as I’m still in Abuja. I will be there on Monday, extend my regards. Good night.
Fiyin read Femi’s text in worry. He knew he should be angry but he was actually bothered. What if she wasn’t intending to come back? Why had she refused to pick his call since Saturday? Did she hate him now? Amanda will never forgive him if Femi did not return.
He switched off his TV and dialled her number. Not surprisingly, she didn’t pick up. He had really been looking forward to her coming tomorrow, he had cleared his schedule so he could be at home all day. What would he do now? Maybe he would take Amanda out or he could call Tiwa, he really had ignored her lately.
Or he would just fix a date for all three of them. Yes, he needed both Tiwa and Amanda to take his mind off Femi’s shenanigans.
Question: What’s happening to Dr Fiyin? I suggest he gives Tiwa a chance though. You never can tell.
