Joy couldn’t remember anything about Valerie but Valerie never stopped making efforts for him to remember.
Two weeks after he got better and left the hospital, he went to see his family.
He took Vale along.
He met James, his twin brother.. James survived but would never be able to walk with his legs again which means he’ll forever be in a wheelchair.
He forgave him.
His wicked mother was buried and his father who was charmed by his mother but because the charm has been lifted, he got his right senses back and apologised dearly to his son, Joy.
Joy forgave his father and met with his sister who had two beautiful kids, Chelsea and Jamie and her husband, Bryan.
He introduced Valerie to them as his friend who helped him alot when he was in the dark tunnel of memory lost caused by his wicked mother.
Even though Valerie said they had something together then ..
He dearly pray to remember them in time… Even if he doesn’t, He can swear, he is falling inlove with her.
He saw Stella..
She now have a son for James.
He fought hard to hold back his tears..
Stella begged him for forgiveness…For forgetting everything they shared.
For not trying to look for him.
Joy forgave her, knowing it wasn’t her fault.
It was all his mother’s fault.
His family was happy to have him back and they celebrated and became united again.
While Iyke got a fifteen years imprisonment….

.. Eva’s POV …
Ever since that day I saw Michael kss Benita, I tried so hard to kill and end the feelings I have for him.
I have Emeka who love me sincerely and so much.
Vale was right, Her brother feel nothing for me.
Nothing.
He said, ‘I’m just his sister’s friend.. Im like a senior sister to him due to the age gap.’
I felt broken even though I was expecting such reply but I felt so hurt when he said them bodly to me.
Valerie was so right that I shouldn’t let him know my feelings for him but rather, I should try to stop those feelings and love Emeka who would do anything for me.
Well, It’s still for the best that I let him know how I felt for him all this years.
Now, Im happy with Emeka. I’ve always been tho but feeling something for him now makes our relationship more beautiful and perfect…Knowing that he isn’t the only one loving in this relationship but that im also inlove with him as well.
I’m happy for Benita…. She’s a beautiful, sweet girl who wasn’t so brilliantly lucky when she was growing up, but she’s so lucky, michael came back and just fell for her.
Maybe cos of the way she do…
Maybe cos of the way she speaks.
Maybe cos she’s beautiful with a wide smile.
They do be perfect together..
I know Michael would help her out study wise.
Yeah, I guess right cos lately, her pidgin ain’t that strong again.
And Valerie?. Joy still don’t remember anything they shared but with the way I see him looking at her, He’do fall inlove with her again.
Well, I gotta dress up. I have a date with Emeka.. Again.
……………………………………
.. Michael’s POV …
“What’s she writting?”
She still don’t know how to write a simple informal letter.
“Here, lemme show you something Benita. Your adress lines ain’t correct. You don’t add a ‘full stop’when you ain’t done with the address. What you put down is ‘comma’ And then under your local government, you add your state which you are currently in, which is Lagos state.. Then you put down a ‘full stop’ followed by the date.” I explained to her while she stared at me.
Then she scratched her hair.
“I no even know today date o.” She said, biting the head of her pen.
“I don’t even know today’s date.” I corrected.
“I don’t even know today’s date.” She followed.
“Good… so it’s neccesary you know dates. Today is 5th January, 2018.” I said with a smile.
“Thank you.” She said and smiled.
Her cute smile.
I don’t know why im inlove with Benita.. My mom’s maid but I don’t see her as that.
I see her as someone really special and unique.
She has the inside beauty and elegance that needs to be brought out and displayed for the world to behold.
She has a great future and also talented.
She won the race for her house a week ago that I had to kss her.
She recieved so much praise from people and everyone made her feel special.
I stared at her as she wrote.
“Dear friend, ” She mumbled and wrote.
“Benita.” I called coolly.
“Michael.” She answered.
At first she was adding ‘Brother’ but I stopped her.
“I love you.” I said.
She blushed and raised the book for me to read.
Dear friend,
I love Michael so much.
I’m happy and smiling.

That made me smile.
“Now, that wasn’t what I told you to wrote. You’ve failed your writing.” I said.
“If this mean failing, then. I no mind failing my exam.” She said.
“Oh sorry, you psssed.” I laughed.
“This is because you love me.” She said.
I drew closer and held her cheeks in my palm
“Yes I love you Benita.” I said and gave her a quick kss on her l!ps.
“Let’s go play football.” I said, got up and pulled her up.
.. Valerie’s POV …
It’s been three weeks but Joy still don’t remember anything about us.
I’ve did my very best. It hurts.
I’ve cried but found out tears won’t solve the matter.
The love we used to share isn’t anymore.
Maybe…but the way he looks at me still give me some hope..
I just hope he’just love me again or just recall everything we had together.
I love him… I love him so much and knowing he doesn’t remember anything hurts.
I sighed and turned on my bed.
I’ve been vomitting lately…and feel weak.
I hardly get sick and my sickness doesn’t even result to vomitting.
I’m too scared to admit to myself that it’s pregn@ncy even though I already know it is.
It’s Joy’s child but it hurts that he doesn’t even remember we had sx.
I’m so scared to tell anyone not even Eva.
How do I let Joy know about this?
My phone rang.
I checked.
it ‘Joy’
Oh… I sighed and picked it up.
“Hello Joy?”
“Vale, can I see you at La Cherrie? I really need you around.” He said.
I swallowed.
“Joy I have something to tell you.” I said.
“Alright. Then we must have something to tell each other.” He said.
I dressed up.
My phone rang again.
An unknown number.
“Hello.” I said.
“Hello Dr. Valerie Orlando. Do you remember this voice?”
I knew the voice instantly.
“Lizzy?” I said.
“Exactly.”
“Lizzy oh my God! How did you get my number?” I asked.
“Oh ain’t you a doctor and a daughter to Medical surgeon Orlando? Your phone number and emails are everywhere you know.” She said.
I chuckled, “Lizzy where did you go?” I asked.
“I dey oh… I heard that Iyke is in prison now. He deserves it… He’ll meet his type there. Vale im coming to see you.” She said.
“Oh please do.” I smiled.
“Take care.” She said and cut the call.
Lizzy…
I’ll give her a call later.
Oh, how could I have forgotten her?
She opened my eyes to all Iyke was doing and all he was plainning for me.
…………………………………
.. Joy’s POV …
I waited at La Cherrie for her..
I’ve sent her the address and soon, I saw her car drive in.
She stepped down looking dazzling and beautiful.
Valerie..
I wonder how I got to meet such a sweet lady when my memory was lost.
“Hello beautiful.” I smiled when she got to my table.
“Hi Joy.” She said.
“You look beautiful.” I said.
“I love it that we’re the only one here.” She said.
“Why?” I asked.
“Cos I need it.” She said.
“So what’s that you wanna tell me?” She asked.
“I don’t know how to say it Vale.” I said.
“It’s fine. I’ll just tell you mine.” She said.
“Alright.”
“I’m pregn@nt and it’s your child.” She said.
“You are pregn@nt?”
“Yes. You rele@sed ins!de me three weeks ago that we had sx, I just wanna know what we’ll do about it. We can go for a test about it.” She said.
I breathed and smiled.
That’s a great news.
I looked into her eyes..
I know she isn’t lying about it.
“Do you still love me Valerie like you said?” I asked.
“I can’t stop myself from doing that.” She said.
“I love you too Valerie Orlando.” I said with a smile, got up, pulled her up and hugged her.
“It’s not so bad if I fall inlove with you again…And this love would be till eternity, nothing’s gonna stop us.” I said.
“I love you Joy…I’m glad I found you.” She said.
“I’m lucky I have you Vale.” I said.
We withdrew and kssed…
