WHEN LOVE JUST HAPPENS 2 : EPISODE 1 – 10
EPISODE 6
Jane stretched her hand across the bed to find out it was empty, she opened her eyes to see Jeffrey wasn’t in the room. She got up to use the restroom, and brush her teeth. The reflection she saw on the mirror, made her cringe. Her hair was disheveled, she had eye bags. Jane felt shy of Jeffery seeing her like this, so she quickly jumped into the shower, had her bath and changed into something else other than the robe she has been putting on.
On her way out, she met the housekeeper who was doing some laundry. Jane greeted her and asked where Jeffery was.
“I saw him going towards the pool about an hour ago”
“Alright thank you Martha, enjoy the rest of your day”
Jane went to the pool side, to find Jeffery swimming in the pool. He looked so incredibly sxy with his wet body. Jane almost ran back to look at the mirror just to make sure she wasn’t looking so h®rrible anymore like she was when she first woke.
“Hey there sleeping beauty” he said to her as he came up for air. He had just a brief on, which did little or nothing to hide his cr®tch. Jane had to tear her eyes away from it to avoid him from noticing she was staring.
“Why didn’t you wake me up? I didn’t know I had slept that long”
“You were sleeping soundly, I didn’t want to disturb you. You slept well I trust?”
“Yeah I did, I actually feel refreshed”
“I like that, want to come in for a swim?” He swam towards where Jane was standing at the edge of the pool.
“Nah, I’m really not feeling like swimming today”
“How about you just sit and dip your feet in the water? That will help you to relax”
“Hmmm… Okay” Jane sat by the edge of the pool and dipped her legs inside. Jeffery got closer to her and she bent to kss him, as they kssed, he pulled her down into the pool. Jane screamed as her body got into the water.
“Now you are already inside the pool, you might as well just swim” he said with a corny smile on his face.
“You are so corny” Jane walked closer to him and splashed water in his face.
“Oh you didn’t” Jeffery splashed water back in her face. And before they knew it, they were having a water fight.
When they were out of breath, they both stood breathing heavily. Jeffery drew her closer and held her to his chest.
“I love you”
“And I love you” she kissed him softly on the lips.
“What do you say, we go for a vacation?”
“That sounds nice, when?”
“Next week?”
“Hmmmm…. Remember I just got a job at Michael’s company, I was supposed to resume this week before everything happened”
“And Michael would understand if you took a week off, considering what happened”
“Okay… Where are we going?”
“Any place of your choice”
“How about Calabar?”
Jeffery looked at her with a funny look on his face “when I said any place of your choice, I meant outside the country”
“Oh… So I can pick any country in Africa?”
“Babe you can pick any where in the world and we would go there”
“What.. are you serious?”
Jeffery nodded with a smile on his face as Jane pondered on which country she would like to go.
“How about we go to Montego Bay in Jamaica? I have always wanted to visit that place”
“Jamaica it is then, pack your bags baby for we are going to Jamaica next week”
“Oh my God, really?”
“Yup” he swept her in his arms and carried her out of the pool. “You my dear, deserve to be taken care off”

Amaka woke up with a banging headache on her head, she tried to recognize her environment. This room looked strange, she thought to herself. She was still trying to figure out how she got here when Dele walked in.
“Hey… You are awake” then everything came back to Amaka in a flash, she tried getting up but was greeted by pains in her abdomen. Dele quickly rushed to her side and helped her to sit up.
“Thank you”
“How are you feeling? Are you still having headache?”
“Yeah a little”
“Sorry, I’m sure it will subside once you have eaten something and taken your medications”
“I think I should be on my way” she tried getting up but ended up slumping back on the bed.
“Easy…. I don’t think you leaving now is a good idea, please just relax while I go get you something to eat” he immediately left the room and came back with a tray which he placed on her laps.
Amaka opened the plate to find fried eggs and some slices of bread with a cup of coffee beside it. She took a taste of the egg and immediately had to wash it down with some water, because it tasted bad.
“It’s bad, isn’t it?” Dele asked as she took a slice of bread, without touching the egg.
“It’s okay” she was trying to be polite, because the egg tasted awfully bad.
“No need to be modest, it does taste bad” he took a spoon of the egg and immediately took Amaka’s water to wash it down. “This is really bad, please don’t eat it”
Amaka started laughing she almost choked on her food. “Then why did you serve it? Are you trying to kill me?”
“I’m sorry, I was only trying to be a good guy” Dele too, was laughing.
“Nice try then”
When Amaka was done eating, Dele gave her her medications and she went back to sleep.
“I have been trying to reach Amaka all day, but she is not picking up” Jane said to Jeffery who has been on his laptop all afternoon.
“I called Dele already and he said she is in his apartment”
“Oh that’s good, I was already worried about her being in that house alone, I was even thinking of going to see her”
Jeffery was too lost in what he was typing on his computer to respond.
“Jeff did you hear what I said?”
“Yeah….” He kept typing away on his laptop without even looking up.
Jane turned on the TV and increased the volume to it’s loudest.
“Babe…. Why so loud” Jeffery cringed as he spoke. Jane ignored him, instead she sat down on the couch and crossed her legs.
“Babe do you mind reducing the volume a bit?” He was shouting so Jane could hear him but instead she changed it to a music channel which made the noise even worse.
Jeffery smiled. He knew he had ignored her for too long, and she was seeking attention. So he walked up to where she was sitting and took the remote from her and mute the volume of the TV. Jane tried to take the remote from him but he removed it from her reach.
“I’m sorry, I didn’t mean to ignore you”
“No it’s fine” she pouted.
He sat down and carried her on his laps “I’m sorry, I was just trying to get some work done” kissed her on her lips. “You know I can’t ignore you intentionally”
“I’m sorry too”
“It’s okay, how about I finish what I’m doing, and we can go see a movie?”
“Yeah… ” Jane threw her hands in the air like a baby “I would love that, now go finish your work quickly” she got off his laps and shooed him with her hands. Jeffery laughed as he took his laptop and went back to work.
When Jane and Jeffery got to the cinema, they argued on what movie to see. Jeffery wanted to see an action movie while Jane wanted to see a romance movie.
“Babe.. please, I did’t come all the way here to see a romance movie now”Jeffery lamented.
“But what is wrong with a romance movie? Isn’t it all about love? Is God not love?”
“When you put it like that, you make it sound like I’m against love”
“Well if you aren’t, let’s see a romance movie then”
Jeffery had no choice but to follow her to see the movie. Jane cried from the beginning of the movie until the end. At a point Jeffery thought something was wrong with her.
“Babe are you okay? Is something wrong” Jeffery asked after she had been crying for over 2minutes.
“I’m fine, it’s just this scene” she said sniffing.
“What’s wrong with it?”
“It’s…so… touching”
Jeffery had to look at the screen again, to find what was touching about it, yet the more he watched the movie, the more he just wanted to get out of there.
When the movie was over, he couldn’t be anymore grateful to leave.
“I don’t know how you could watch a movie like that and not shed a tear?”
“That’s because I didn’t see any need to cry”
“Really? With all those touching scenes?”
“Babe please let’s just go and eat, I’m famished. At least if those touching scenes like you call them, didn’t touch my emotions, they touched my appetite”
“Awwwwwww, sorry sweetheart. How about we go get some suya?”
“I think that is a good idea, I know a good suya spot close by”
“I wasn’t referring to any of those fancy suya spots”
“Then which one were you talking about?”
“Roadside suya”
“You want me to buy roadside suya and eat?” Jeffery asked with so much horror on his face.
“Yes, now come with me”

“Remind me to never to follow you to watch a movie again” Jeffery grumbled as Jane purchased the suya from a roadside seller. He kept grumbling about how someone might see him and make a news of it.
“And since when did you start caring about what people say so much?” Jane paid for their suya and Jeffery immediately started walking in the direction where he parked his car.
“Where are you rushing to?”
“To get into the car of course, or do you have other plans?”
“Aren’t you going to taste the suya?” Jane opened it and took out one and tried feeding Jeffery with it.
“On the streets? You are not serious are you?” Jeffery looked like he could burst with embrassment any minute.
“Just open up first” Jeffery finally obliged her and ate the suya. “Now, tell me that is not one of the best suya you have tasted?”
“Well.. it’s not bad” he replied as he chewed. If he was going to be honest, it was really nice. The spices marinated well into the beef.
“Good, that means you can have more. Here” Jane took out more to feed him with.
“Babe, could we at least wait until we get home before eating this?” Jeffery begged.
“Weren’t you the one talking about being famished?”
“Yeah, but I would prefer to eat at home. You know what? I’m no longer hungry let’s just go home”
“Well this suya would have been cold by the time we get home”
“There is something called a microwave babe, you will use it. It was bought for reasons like this” he was clearly getting pissed. Jane who wasn’t even deterred by his attitude, started to eat her suya as they stood.
“There is a bench over there, let’s go sit there” she didn’t wait for Jeffrey’s response before she went to where the chair was and sat. Jeffery who had no other choice but to follow her, sat with her on the chair. “You are lucky I love you too much to complain” he grumbled as he sat down.
“Then don’t” Jane fed him with more suya.
“What’s up with the bullying tonight? Did I do something wrong?” He asked out of confusion.
“Hehehehehe…..” Jane laughed so hard she had to hold her middle as she laughed, the more she looked at Jeffery’s frustrated look, the more she laughed.
“What is so funny?”
“You of course, what makes you think I’m trying to punish you for something?”
“Then, why are you doing all these?”
Jane feed him with some suya before she replied his question. “You have shown me your world and all it’s glamour, but you are yet to know mine. This is what a part of my world looks like. Buying suya on the streets, watching a romantic movie that makes me cry all through the movie. This is a part of my world Jeff”
Jeffery took some of the suya and fed her and then bent to kiss her.
“Is there any other part of your world you would like to show me?”

“Dele I think I’m strong enough to come to the dining and eat” Amaka stood up from the bed.
“Are you sure? I could bring the food to you here”
“If the food you served me earlier is anything to go by, then I would rather eat out of bed, just in case I need to throw up” They both laughed.
“For someone who doesn’t know how to make eggs, you sure do know how to make a good yam porridge” Amaka complimented Dele as they sat down on the couch to watch TV after their meal.
“I didn’t make that, I actually ordered for it” Dele couldn’t cook, even if it was to save his life. While growing up, he never liked anything that had to do with the kitchen. The only time he tried making noodles for his sick sister when they were little, he almost burnt the house down. Ever since then, he hadn’t attempted to cook until that morning, when he decided to make eggs for Amaka.
“Oh, I thought as much”
“I’m terrible when it comes to cooking” he looked at Amaka whose focus was on the television. “I’m terrible at so many things, just like I’m terrible at making things right with you”
“What are you talking about? If it’s about what happened the last time, you should know I hold no grudge against you. I keep telling you this.”
“No, it’s not okay, I acted like a douchebag and I am sorry for that”
“Dele it’s fine”
“I broke up with my girlfriend”
“I know”
“Really? how did you know?”
“You wouldn’t bring me to your house if you both were still together”
“You are right. I’m truly sorry for leading you on the last time. I promise things will be different this time and..”
“Hey, hey…..hold up” Amaka raised her hands to stop him. “What are you talking about? What do you mean by this time, things will be different?”
Dele took Amaka’s hand in his, “I would like to date you the proper way Amaka”
Amaka tried to hold her laughter but couldn’t, she laughed so hard Dele felt confused. “did I say something wrong?”
“I’m sorry, but I think you have things mixed up here, simply because I had sex with you a few times or I decided to follow you to your house, doesn’t mean I want to date you”
Dele tried his best to hide his hurt. “Amaka I don’t understand, I thought the feeling was mutual”
“Then you thought wrong, I will not, and will never date you. I leave first thing in the morning”
