Episode 9
Tony nodded. Ansa looked through the window and
smiled.
Alice and Felix found their way through the tables
and sighted Ansa and a stranger. She approached
them. They hugged and exchanged pleasantries.
‘Tony, meet my silly cousin Alice, Alice, my best
friend Tony’ Ansa introduced.
‘nice to finally meet you. I’ve heard so many
things about you’ Tony said as they shook hands.
‘really? I hope Ansa didnt run his mouth too much’
Alice said jokingly. They laughed and made orders.
Felix wanted ice-cream as usual. They began
chatting about several things.
‘what of Nkechi?’ Alice asked.
‘she left for Abuja this morning to see her cousin
so i also seized this opportunity to see mine as
well’ Ansa said. Alice chuckled.
‘yeye cousin’ Alice said.
Alice and Ansa began to chat about so many
things that is related to family and Tony felt left
out. He looked outside the window and caught
sight of a beautiful and curvy woman. For the first
since Naomi died, he felt like approaching a
woman. She was dressed moderately. A tight skirt,
blue singlet and a black suit. Tony saw her lock
her car. He fell in love with her instantly and made
up his mind to approach her. He saw her walk in.
Not long after he saw. She was very pretty indeed
like a mermaid. She placed her order and sat two
tables away from them. Not too long, a cup of
coffee and cheese cake was brought to her. He
loved the way she sipped her coffee, the way she
bit her cake bit by bit, everything. His mind wasnt
with Ansa and co anymore. It was far……
Maria was bored at home. Rhoda had gone to the
market to get some things and she was alone. She
felt like going to her dad’s office but she decided
to call first. Tony picked the call on the scecond
beep.
‘hello dad.’
‘hello Maria, any problem?’
‘no dad. I just wanted to know if i could come over
to your office. I’m bored.’
‘oh no! I am not in the office so dont bother. Dont
worry, i will come home early’
‘where are you dad?’
Just then Alice tapped Felix gently
‘eat slowly dear’ she said to him.
Unfortunately, Maria heard that and misunderstood.
Brfore Tony could respond, she spoke up
‘dad? Are you with lady?’ she asked anger evident
in her voice
‘uh, yes. There’s one here’
‘what?!’ To say Maria was angry was an
understatement. ‘dad, is this what you now do? I
am disappointed! Dad, we need to talk’ she said
and ended the call rudely.
Tony was in shock with what Maria did but as
soon as he saw the lady, it disappeared from his
mind.
She paid her bill and stood up to leave. Tony
quickly excused himself from the table and followed
her. Ansa was too busy to notice but unfortunately,
Alice noticed. She had been watching since that
lady entered.
Just as the lady inserted the key into the keyhole,
Tony came.
‘hello’ he said.
‘hi’ the lady replied and flashed the cutest smile
ever.
