Dealing With Love... Success
They say time heals woundsThey say we learn from wounds,But then, old wounds can reopenAnd if not strong, could shatter everything...OluwatoyosiPrecious POVThe sound of my alarm buzzed me awake, making me groan as I stood up to do my morning prayer before going into the bathroom to get a hot shower, as it has been cold these past weeks.It's been two weeks since Ethan spoke to my parents and to say we have both been busy was an understatement. I was thrown into projects while Ethan had business deals every now and then but we still managed to find ways to be together like weekends where we are either in my home or going out.I needed a break, I was really tired, but thank God it was Friday.Coming out of the shower, I took my clothes, which consisted of simple jeans with plain white tees. I slipped on my white converse and packed my braids into a ponytail, that's right I had to make my hair, or else it would have started cutting.Taking my backpack, I left my room to see Funke t
Dealing With Love... The Gala and Love
Stepping into the apartment, I dropped my bag on the couch and made Funke follow me to the kitchen. I was hungry for homemade fried rice and chicken.It took us an hour to get the food done, then we ate and drank a bottle of non-alcoholic blue wine as a form of our mini celebration while dancing like crazy people in the kitchen. Finally, when we were exhausted, I checked the time to see that it was still 2:55 pm, and we decided to sleep it off. Setting our alarm for 4:30 pm we slept off, not on the bed but the couch in the parlor.The alarm clock jolted us up as we hated the song. Quickly dismissing the alarm, it took us 10minute to stand up."Ife, let's go and shower, I smell like the chicken sauce" I laughed but stood up nonetheless.Entering our rooms, I head to the shower and took a nice long bath, washing, and shaving. After a good scrubbing, I turned off the shower and stepped out wrapping my towel around my body.Checking my wardrobe, I decided to wear my long red Ankara, with
Dealing With Love... Old Wounds
"You do?" he asked incredulously and I nodded and before I knew what was happening, he was carrying me by the waist and twirling me. "I love you so freaking much, my love and I will always do" I put my head on his chest, his heartbeat my music as we swayed to the ending of the song. Ethan pulled me for a long soft kiss and then I heard claps around. We walked back to our seats. Not long after, Ethan and Joel excused themselves to meet an investor. Funke and I decided not to go as our legs were killing us. So, while we waited, we ate to our satisfaction and then some. The food was amazing. I finished stuffing my face with food and drank the juice I ordered since I didn't want to get drunk.Funke and I were appreciating some women who came to comment on our gowns. I was smiling and telling them that we were from Nigeria until I noticed Funke tensed up. "Funke, what's wrong?" I asked her. She looked angry but concerned that's when I heard that voice, his voice. "Ifeoluwa" I tensed n
Dealing With Love... The past (Reminiscing)
The beauty of the heartIs the ability to accept,The beauty of the homeIs the ability to accept the heart... Oluwatoyosi Precious POV I woke up to the rays of the sun in my eyes only to find an arm holding me down. Panicked, this isn't my room, this isn't my bed. Then I remember; I remember the party, David, and when Ethan brought me to his home. I relaxed as I see Ethan sitting on a chair right beside the bed, with his head on the mattress as he held onto my hand. Why was he here? Didn’t he go to the other room last night? I was sure he did. I stared at him and frowned at his position. He could get a neck cramp. Checking the time on my phone, it was 8:35 am. I closed my eyes and do my morning prayer, and once I was done, my head started buzzing with questions. David! The man that broke me. Why would he say he still loved me? Hadn't he done enough? I loved him and he threw all that away with just a single act. I couldn’t even begin to imagine what would have happened to me if
Dealing With Love... Strong
I placed my hands on him to try and calm him down before I continued.“Funke yelled at him, and hit him with a plastic pipe beside his bed but he just laughed at us, and then went on to tell me, that it had all been a plan. He only wanted to get into my pants, and that he never loved me. I was broken, Ethan. Funke helped me get out of there, and that's when I cried. I couldn't think, I couldn't function. What would he have done if Funke didn't get there? I knew then that God was amazing, or else I would have been shattered" I was full-on crying by the time I ended my rant.Why did he do such a thing? That was the question that kept me up at night for seven months straight. I loved him so much back then.I wiped my tears and turned my gaze to Ethan but he wasn't looking at me with pity like I expected, he looked at me with love. He stood from the chair and sat on the bed beside me, cooping me up into his arms in a warm embrace."You are the strongest person I know. Despite all that, y
Dealing With Love... Flight.
"Hello dear. You must be Precious. I'm Emily, Ethan’s cook" she said briefly and hugged me and I relaxed because she had motherly vibes.Ethan came out of the room holding a pillow about to hit me when Emily glared at him."She started it," he said pointing to me, and I pouted."I did not" I put on a fake hurt face."Okay you big babies, I made pancakes" I squealed and ran to the kitchen.Emily laughed and asked Ethan if I was always like this."With food, she is," Ethan said and I pouted. He pinched my cheeks but I decided not to retaliate since I already started stuffing my face with pancakes."Emily, Precious, and I are going on a vacation. We won't be back till Monday. Can you please, take care of the place till we get back" Monday? At least, I don't have classes till Wednesday because we are done with the classes I have then."Of course, dear, you guys enjoy yourselves." She replied and went back to the kitchen, leaving us to eat.We finished our food under fifteen minutes. I to

The wind blowing through the airThe feeling of freedom, so cool, so fresh,Happiness, an emotion expressed wildly,A smile on the face, the feeling of joy from within.Oluwatoyosi Precious POV "C'mon my love, you can't get away from me now... You belong to me, you understand? You belong to me" my head snapped to the side, and the pain from the slap brought tears to my eyes as I looked at the monster before me. The one I once loved... Oh, how people change drastically within a short period. "Please don't do this, you know how much I love you, please I beg you..." I was cut short with another slap to my face. "I'm tired of your excuses, you are my girlfriend and I have needs that having you, can fulfill," he shouted before tearing off my blouse and the whole room was filled with screams in less than a second, my screams. I couldn't let him do it. I wouldn't. He tore whatever was left of my blouse only to be exposed in my bra and jeans. I fought hard against him, slapping him, h
Dealing With Love... Paris & Birthday (Part two)
"C'mon, go shower and get dressed, we have a long day ahead. Wear something comfortable" Ethan said packing the tray of food and walking away. I went into the bathroom and brushed my teeth. Then I got into the shower and scrubbed my body after shaving. Stepping out of the shower, I wrapped a towel around my body and got out of the bathroom. I picked up my clothes and underwear from my suitcase and quickly got dressed. He said something comfy, so, I went with a tiny-handed, slightly backless, flower-patterned summer gown. I applied brown powder and nude lipstick. Then I put my braids in a ponytail, carving the hair sticking out with edge control. Satisfied with my look, I put on my brown flat sandals and hoped I was not too short beside Ethan. My phone chimed, picking it up, I saw a message. Happy birthday Ife, I wish you spent it with me. David... How did he get my number? I felt it as my hands started clamming. What if he's out to get me again? What does he want with me? Oh G
