[ Paradise island ?]
? JACKIE ?
I’d returned to my room after the girls night in the early hours of the morning and Dami and I ended up having se-x .
” Jackie ” dami called as I looked at him tired .
” You’re still gonna give me the silent treatment after we made love ? He asked frowning .
” You told me this was a vacation for the both of us ….the both of us dami and your mom traced us all the way here , what should I be doing ? Acting like everything is ok ? Which of those guys you saw out there came with there mother’s Mr mommy’s boy ? I snapped .
.I couldn’t get why his mom keeps getting on my nerves , I hated seeing her around because we aren’t even getting along and it keeps frustrating me .
I can’t do this anymore ?
” You know you and Mom are just misun-derstanding each other …” He said tiredly .
” Well because I can’t do this anymore damilare …”I said and he looked shocked to the bones .
” What do you mean you can’t do this anymore ? He asked angrily as I wiped my tears .
” Because I’m giving up on you , I can’t continue trying to win the heart of someone who doesn’t even care about my existence …” I said and he bent to her level .
” Hey babe look at me , I’m not calling this union off , I love you from the bott-om of my heart and I want this thing between us to work …” He said as I cried .
” Babe …”
” After this Vacation I’m not going back with you to Nigeria ?? …I’m going back to newyork “I said and he bit his lower li-p whilst staring at me .
” Jackie you can’t do that. ..” he said voice breaking at the edge and I chuckled bitterly as tears rolled outta my eyes .
He pulled me in for a ki-ss as my tears w£t his face
” I think you nee-d a break from all this drama Jackie and if that’s what you want …., I’d give you that break , but don’t you dare think I’d give up on you …..I’d never give up on us ” he cried and went into the bathroom .
I stared at my engagement ring but couldn’t find it in my heart to pull it off which only made me cry bitterly .
We both changed and Walked back to the others like everything was perfectly fine .
” So you can all come and visit me in Nigeria I’d host you guys well ” I heard his mom say and the guys laughed .

? BUMMI ?
Not too long Marcoroni came downstairs with Danny in his arms and everyone burst into laughter at how cute they looked whilst she hid her face in his che-st .
” Let me guess …you basically ruined her legs Marco …” Manuel said and Nicole burst into laughter as vincenzo ki-ssed her forehead .
” My legs are perfectly fine” she said and everyone gave them teasing smiles.
” Perfectly fine and you’re up there, admit it girl, your legs are on a holiday for now ….that’s why we should always think twice before mo-aning ha-rder ha-rder during se-x …” One of the girls said and I nearly choked on my saliva .
” CELINE” Everyone said and I just stared at them speechlessly.
‘ now I see where this is going ….? I said and they all burst out laughing .
My eyes met Jackie who was sitted on the couch and eyes filled with hurt from crying .
Did they fight again or she was giving up on Damilare ,I Wondered .
This girl was definitely stupid if
she thought crying was gonna change anything , was this how she was gonna cry if it was another girl trying to fustrate her relationship .
” You’ve been staring at your son’s girlfriend for quite sometime now , planing anything crazy again ” Manuel asked and i Frowned .
” Am I evil ? I asked frowning .
” Hell no momma you’re just the cutest ,who told you you’re evil ? He asked .
” Damilare has pas-sed throu-ghlots of heartbreaks in his life , he’s never had luck when it came to women just a bunch of Heartbreakers and professional gold diggers ….” I trailed voicing out my thoughts .
” That one’s loud ” Marco said as the three of us stood seperately and watched Jackie and damilare .
” Ya , he’d began dating shade his ex and that was the longest girlfriend he ever had ..the girl was super nice and they cut things off , that was his longest relationship ….so I made up my mind to find the best girl for him ” she said .
” Wait you dont hate Jackie ? Marco asked .
‘ no na oyibo pepper has tried now , if it where some other girl ,she wouldn’t tolerate me this long ” I said laughing .
” Do you know what I’ve done to her ….? She asked with a chuckle as I remembered my crazy memories with my soon to be daughter in-law .
” I can imagine “Marco said and we laughed .
” What if she breaks up with your son ? Manuel asked .
” Hehehehe there’s no break up oh ,if she likes let her go live in the rock I’d bring her back ….how would my idiot survive without her ? I asked .
” You’re something else ” Manuel said as we chuckled .
‘ mom I hope you’re not planning something else ? My girl wouldn’t be able to bear another of your crazy ideas please” he said and the guys laughed .
” I am not planning something ” i said and he ki-ssed my forehead with a chuckle .

[ Lagos State Nigeria ??]
? DAMINI ?
” Madam we can’t give you the keys to our boss room ….” The guard said and I frowned .
” What the hell do you mean by you can’t give me the keys to my husband’s room ? Are you outta your mind ! I Thun-dered .
” Madam ….this one no be out of mind matter …this one is matter of crossing boundary now ….” Okon said and I removed his stupid Barret and threw it at his face .
” You must be outta your mind you stupid gateman . What so you all take me for ? A cheap who-re ? I Thun-dered angrily .
I couldn’t get why all these servants where trying to show me I wasn’t nee-ded in my own husband’s Mansion .
” I don’t nee-d to prove to anyone of you that Dami is mine , he belongs to me and he will marry only Me because I have is heir …! I screamed angrily .
” Mom why are you screaming ” Quincy asked coming in and I immediately pretended to be nice .
” Hey baby ….how are you ” I said and ki-ssed his forehead .
” I’m fine mom ….hey guys ” he said to the servants making me frown.
” Baby I’ve told you this is your father’s Mansion and they are are your servants , I don’t un-derstand why you would be nice to them ” I said and he frowned .
” Really ? But it’s good to be nice to everyone …” He said and I could see the guards crack up .
” Quincy ! I yelled at him .
” Stop yelling on me mummy … daddy isn’t even gonna come …you’re just lieing to me ! He didn’t come and it’s already another day !
” Daddy doesn’t want me ” he said pouting sadly .
” Baby I promise daddy belongs to us okay …..he loves us …he just doesn’t know yet because of the Bad aunty …that’s trying to steal him from us .” I Said and he Frowned .
” He’s married already ? Then what are we doing here ” he asked arms folded and I ru-bbed my forehead .
Quincy is just seven but too smart for his age .
” He doesn’t have a wife ” I said and he stared at me .
” Can we just go back home ? He said and I lost it .
” Quincy you can’t talk to me like that ..I’m your mother ! I screamed .
” Daddy doesn’t want us in his house …. Mommy …let’s just go back to the US ” He said and my eyes stung with tears as he Stormed upstairs .
” Quincy ”
” Rotimi I’m talking to you ” I called his native name but he didn’t even turn .

I sliced the onions into the chops of meat in the pot and put in some Maggi and season powder .
” The burial is still some months from now ” I heard mom say over the phone and ru-bbed her forehead .
” Brother I’ve heard you now ” she said and started speaking in her dialect .
” Ebi is fine ” she said and I looked at her with eyebrows raised .
” It’s your uncle he wants to talk to you ” she said and I wondered why he didn’t call my number directly .
” Hello Uncle ” I said picking up .
” Ebiere how are you ” he asked calling me by the ijaw native name …my mother’s family knows me as .
” I’m fine Uncle …heard the date for grandma’s burial is out ? I asked and he chuckled .
” Ya I’m expecting you and your ….’ he said and cleared his throat .
” Ah uncle…I’ve told you there’s no one special ” I said and mom looked at me with a smile .
” Still in denial ….? He asked and I heard mom chuckle Making me remove the call from speaker .
” Well he doesn’t see me that way uncle and I can’t continue wasting my life for such a man …. being besties with him would just continue Making my suitors feel I already have someone special …let him go his way abeg ” I said and he fell quiet .
” Don’t you think …he nee-ds time to realise how he feels …ebi ? God has plans for each and everyone of us and you have realized how you feel ….
” Don’t you think feyi would also realise soon ” he asked .
” What if I end up missing God’s ordained husband for me because I’m depending on my feelings on Feyi ” I asked sadly .
” I pray you both sought your differences soon dear , I’m sure my ship can’t sink just like that….I’m expecting the both of you in the village as a couple ” he said and I smiled ..
” Yes your highness ” I said making him laugh as he cut the call .
“You are both not in talking terms Ade ? What happened ? Mom asked .
” And did I just hear you admit your into him ? Hehehehe ” she added .
” Can we not talk about it please” I said frowning .
” Ade …..I’ve never seen you fighting with Feyi before oh …this is too crazy …” Mom said and I looked away .
” He doesn’t know what he wants mummy …what should I do ? Go around trying to make him see it ? That’s just like ru-b-bing salt on my wounds …
” I just wanna be with someone who knows what he wants ” I said and she smiled .
” Oh …I’m heartbroken and I’m sure fummi would be more heartbroken when she hears this ….we’ve been shipping since you where kids for goodness sake ” she said and I chuckled .
My phone rang and mom noticed my caller ID .

I dried my pa-nties on the rope after washing them and…I didn’t know why a smile graced my li-ps …
Was I thinking too much ? Does aunt bummi really hate me or ….” I sighed softly .
I was tired of thinking too much …
” Hey Jackie ” Nicole said walking towards the kitchen with a bowl .
” You look Seriose , what are you guys up to ? I asked seeing she was with fresh tomatoes.
” Oh …you’re mother inlaw is about to teach us how to make Nigerian jollof … we’re all in the kitchen ” she said and I smiled softly .
” Oh …have fun ” I said and she raised her eyebrows .

” I’ve per boiled the rice …I’ve …” Marco trailed explaining what he had done .
” Ah …Marcoroni is a chef , he already knows how to do it …” Manuel complained .
” Marco ….Manuel ,my name is Marco …! He said angrily .
” I’m done with the chickens ….” Danny said and she smiled .
” Give them to my daughter in-law let her steam them …Dami go and help her on the gas ” she instructed and everyone smiled at me as she moved over to scold Andrew .
She called me her daughter in-law ?
