… Iyke’s POV …
“Where did you spend the night Iyke?” Lizzy’s voice came as I entered into my house.
My house!
“You don’t want to leave my house. You are in my house and you fking asking me where I spend the night. Are you nuts?” I walked pass her to my bedroom.
She followed me, laughing..
“Im staying here for a month. Do you get that? You think I left huh? After you messed me up. You took my love for you for granted Iyke. I am going nowhere. Thank God I found you.” She said.
I turned to her.
She’s on my shirt.
“Take that shirt off now! Don’t get me mad or else you’ll be in six feet in just a minute.” I barked angrily.
“Well, I will do.” She said and then pulled off the shirt, throwing into a long basket.
She had just a p@nt own.
Nothing more..
Then she searched for a clothe on a box, bending really low and parted her l.egs so I can view everything well..
I hissed and walked into the bathroom.
Then I heard her laughter.
“You are hurting another lady just the same way you did to me Iyke. Scamming her with Love shts. Extracting money from her with fake reasons. Just imagine how much this girl loves you. Bought you a house, furnished it for you, helped you get a job, bought you a car on your birthday, Jesus Christ! Give you everything you want and you still has the heart to cheat on her all the time. G0sh! what manner of human being are you Iyke?”
I fumed, “If you don’t shut that btchy mouth of yours Lizzy, im gonna pull it out for you, btch!” I warned.
“You are planning of extracting three million naira from her. That should be a better reason for you to mind your threats.” She said.
“Before that time comes, I’do had known what to do to your empty skull. Wh0re!” I spat and went on with my bathing.

I came out, and she wasn’t in the bedroom anymore.
I dressed up, picked my phone and bag and when I was out, I saw her crossed legs on the couch, smoking and a bottle of half drank gin on her left hand.
“Don’t you have manners at all you sl.ut..Can’t you take your bad a$$ outside and do your shts?” I barked.
I just hate she’s still here.
She laughed, then smiled lightly.
“Do you need some?” She asked and puffed smoke out.
I hissed and walked to the door.
“Iyke, there’s no foodstuff in this house. Won’t I eat something?”
“Feed yourself!” I said and slamed the door.
I need to deal with this btch!

… Valerie’s POV …
“Aunty. Valerie.. Im. sorry. Will. You. still. Forgive. Me. If I. wash the. whole. Bathroom?” He asked.
He’s been apologising over and over again ever since we came back..
I have cleaned up the mess he did in the sitting-room.
I’ve made custard.
He said he’do take his with the bean cake, but I’ll take mine with ‘bread’
I dropped his plate on his seat which is the right seat and dropped a tin milk beside.
He was standing at the draining board doing the same funny thing he did yesterday.
“You should drop that and come eat.” I told him.
He shook his head.
“I. will. Not. Eat. If you. Have. Not Forgiven. Me.” He said.
I breathed, “Ofcourse I had.” I said and I was sincere.
He turned and faed me with his babyish look, “Are. You. Sure?” He said.
I nodded. Just like he do.
He slowly started to smile, he did it till it turned to a really wide grin.
Okay, for the second time, I didn’t see it coming.
I was busy, staring at the way he smiled and those dimples that I didn’t know when he rushed me in a really tight hug and refused to let go.
I gasped.
“Thank. You. Thank. You. Thank you. Thank. you. Im happyyyyyy.” He sang.
“Joy! You are holding me too tighttt.” I let out.
He quickly released the grip but still was hugging me.
I widened my eyes.
Few of his hair was brushing against my cheek and my ear, tickling me.
Then he began rocking me like a baby, patting my back softly and began singing;
“I Love you.. You love me, We are friends, Like friends should be, With a great big hug.. And…”
A kss??
“…kss from. Me, to you..” he sang and then paused.
I gasped… I just hope it’s not what im thinking..
I quickly pulled away with a slight frown.
He stared at me and sucked on his bottom lip.
“Where did you learn that song from?” I asked.
“My Sister. Loved. Singing. It.”
“Your sister?” I asked.
He has a sister.
He nodded.
“What’s her name. Can you tell me about her?” I asked.
“I. Don’t. Know.” He said.
“You don’t know about who you just mentioned. You sister?” I asked.
He nodded.
I sighed.
Just the same thing he said when I asked about his dad.
And I could see the sincerity in his voice and expression.
He isn’t lying.
“It’s okay.” I said.
“I’ve. Not. Finish. Singing.” He said.
I chuckled, “Come let’s eat. The custard is getting cold and im running late for work.” I said as walked to the breakfast bar and sat on the left seat.
He came over and sat down and we began eating..
I remembered Iyke.
God help me. I really need to go to the bank before getting to the hospital.
I don’t know this uncle of his but I don’t mind giving him the money.
He was crying while telling everything to me last night.
He was telling the truth.
That’s quite a huge money but his uncle’s health is more important.
I looked at Joy who ate slowly.
“Will you stay in today and save me the stress of looking the whole street for you.” I asked him.
He nodded calmly..
“Better.” I breathed.

After eating.
I got up to take the plates to the sink but Joy was fast enough to grab the plates.
“I.will. Wash. Them. I promise. Not to break. Them.” He said.
“It’s fine. I’ll go take my bath and dress up for work. You should take your bathe as well when you are done.” I said and he nodded.
I walked out.

Inside my room, I undressed, walked to the bathroom and took a bathe.
I dressed in a yellow tight gown and black heels after.
Dressed my hair, did a light touch to my face.
Carried my black Channel bag and walked out with my car keys.
Joy wasn’t out in the sitting-room.
Is he still washing the plates since that time?
I walked out to his room.
The door was wide open.
“Joy are yo–” I was cut short by another st@rked n@ked ‘Joy’
Oh my God!
I don’t know why I didn’t look away.
I stood at the door as I fixed my eyes on him.. On his dk actually with mouth agape.
“Im. Sorry. I. was. bathing.” He said as he began coming close.
Acting like there was nothing wrong.
Acting like he’s just four and knows nothing like ‘being n@ked in front of a lady’
D@mn! It was dangling.
“No no.. Go and wear something.” I said, still looking at him.
He stopped. Then nodded.
Then he turned back.
I still kept staring.
Then my consciousness hit me and I quickly looked away.
What are you looking at??
I brought out my phone and fixed my eyes on it…
The time is 9: 30am..
I scrolled to my gallery and began staring at my pictures including the ones I took with Iyke. The ones I took with Eva and the ones I took with some patients that I treated at the hospital.
Till I heard him say;
“Im. Donee.”
I looked at him. He had a smile with his arms spread wide open.
I inhaled.. “I’m going to work. Stay home. Don’t leave and don’t spoil anything again. Don’t leave the Fridge open. Don’t cook. There’s cornflakes in the fridge. Make it by putting pouring it on a plate, add a little water and milk. I’ll buy food when im coming back. ” I said.
I was about walking out when he said;
“I. Will. Miss. You Aunty Valerie.” He said.
I raised my eyebrows.
Really?
Then I smiled, “I’ll be back soon. Come close the gate.” I said and walked away.
He followed behind.

When I entered my phone and drove out.
I exhaled a really long breathe..like i’ve been choking for hours!
I can’t believe the weirdness.
“Joy, you won’t make me do something stupid one day.” I mumbled.
First was hugging me, then pausing that song like you were looking for how to really kss me.
Then letting me see your dk for the second time!
Goodness!

I stopped by the bank and it took me almost an hour to send that money to him.
To Iyke.
Five hundred thousand naira.
I was really grateful when I was done.
I rushed back to my car and drove straight to work.
A message from Iyke few minutes later.
**OmG! I just recieved the alert. Wow thank you so much honeypie. I love youuuuu. My uncle is finally gonna live! Thank you so much baby. I love you from the deepest side of my heart.
You mean the whole world to me. Im incomplete without you. My Angel.**
I smiled after reading his message.
I’ll call him when I get to work.

… Iyke’s POV …
Wow… the dummy sent the money.
FIVE HUNDRED THOUSAND NAIRA no be small money ooh!
I laughed.
Soon, I’ll be in one of the expensive hotels in this Lagos with Bella, his new babe I just met on Facebook.
This new hot babe I met on facebook, Bella, she’s really making me go cr@zy with her b!g b.utt..
She’s coming over soon and she’s the main reason I need this cash and now I’ve got it from the dummiest girl ever..
I’m gonna call Bella that im ready for her.
Wowww… Iyke you are fire!
Um..
“Maybe I should call Lola to get a share too?”
Ofcourse!
She’do get a little from the money if she rides my d**k so well like she do best.
And Franca..
She can get a little too by shaking that btchy a$$ of hers for me.
Linda is d@mn good at giving a bl.0w j0b and she’s so beautiful.
I’m calling her too.
Enjoyment.. Till the money finishes and I’ll sure get another one from the dummy, Valerie with a just a simple lie and a touch of my finger on her skin.
Hahahahahaha.
“Life is sweet. Let me call Lola..”
I was going through my contacts for her line when Valerie’s call came in.
This dummy.
I picked up and smiled, “Hello sugar.. You should know how happy I am right now. You are so the best girlfriend in the world.” I said.
“Treat your uncle.. His health is more important. I love you so much.” She said.
I guess she’s in her office now.
Uncle indeed.
“I will honey.. I was about calling chioma when your call came. She’ll be so grateful.” I said and laughed within.
“It’s nothing. I will do anything for you, so far that makes you happy.” She said.
“Awwn.. My sunshine. My everything. You have my heart till eternity. I love you deeply and I will never stop.” I said and rolled my eyes.
“I wanna get busy now. Bye baby.” She said.
“Honey, can I come by tonight. I really wanna spend my night with you again.. Please.” I said.
“Alright heartbeat.” She said.
Heartbeat indeed.
“Awwn. I can’t wait to see you. Bye honeypie.” I said.
“Me too.”
She giggled before dropping the call.
I rolled my eyes again, “Dummy.”
I called Lola.
She picked immediately.
I wonder if she do stay a minute without her phone.
“Hey boo. Missed you oh.” She said.
“I don’t miss you. I only miss the thing you best.” I said with a smile.
“I’m always ready. Is it tonight?” She asked.
“No, tomorrow night.” I said.
“How much you go wire me?” She asked.
“30k” I said.
“70” She.
“50.” I said.
“Okay.. Na because of you oh. You know me na big girl. Na big men I dey give my p**y.” She said.
“See you by ten tomorrow night.” I said and ended the call.
I called Linda.
She picked up after few rings.
“Wow… Iyke this one you called me. E be like say konji don hold you again abi..”
Wide mouth.
“Linda. I get something for you. Are you in?” I said.
“I no dey collect less than 40k” She said.
“No probs. Money dey. I’ll call you later.” I smiled.
Franca was next.
Franca is truelly my colleague at work…but I wonder why she wasn’t at work today.
Remember the dummy saw her in my car some weeks ago.
She can tw.erk so d@mn good and make your head spin.
I’ll call Bella later.
And about me going to spend another night with Valerie.
Oh that?
She likes it… She can’t deny.
