Birthday girl
I woke up the next day around 3 am to get ready so I can beat the morning traffic when Kola informed me that I was not going anywhere.
“Are you serious right now?” I demanded from him as he nodded and held me closer.
“Deadly, Ivy will go to the office along with Kelvin, God knows she has a lot of drama to dish out to keep everybody on their toes, she will then go to NTA news station to talk about the changes going on in A.I. in your place while you will keep your butt in one place and let me spoil you on your birthday. Tomorrow you can continue as planned.” Kola sleep filled voice rumbled behind me as I turned to face him.
“So you are just going to keep making plans for me and in your small brain, you actually think I will just stay here and take the orders you dish out shey?” I gripes as the idiot just laughed at my words.
“See who is

MY PERFECT MATCH Tomi pov.
I think I have fucked up, I chose the wrong brother. It isn’t supposed to be like this. I was the one who got engaged, why was Stella smiling and looking like she had won the lottery. She should be stressed out for crying out loud but she just looks radiant and without a care in the world even though she has a crazy problem and then there’s him. Well I can’t say that I don’t know why Stella is on Top of the world. It was because of him. He makes everything go well, that how Kola has always been, that was his nature and personality. He makes people happy by just doing what he loves. People pleasing I had called it even though I was his biggest recipient but to him, he was just being himself. I remember all those night while he helped me with my assignments, when we went to night class together and I would sleep off knowing for sure he will be awake to keep watch over me. Those times when I would go to clu
MY PERFECT MATCH Where it all started to go wrong.
Stella has been busy with whatever hell she has being raising and even though she told me that she loved me, apart from her birthday I haven’t had any other day to bask in that knowledge so like a junkie I slid back to my addiction. Tomi.You see, I didn’t just slid back but Tomi has being making time for me and the energy between us this time felt different, like we were dating or something, I mean she was definitely more touchy feely than she usually was but I have not let my mind dwell on it. it also didn’t help that anytime I tried to think of Tomi, Stella face flash through my head and it feels as if I was hurting her. That was not something I ever wanted to do, I mean I love the girl for Christ sake.And what of Tomi?My traitorous mind whispers. I still love Tomi but I haven’t made peace with the fact that Tomi can never be mine, maybe
MY PERFECT MATCH Doubts creeps in
I had thought that the worse part of my day was getting to know that Princess doesn’t believe Kola is faithful to me at all but the attitude of those old shareholders who rather stand by Tony even though he was dragging the company down rather than agree with a ‘little girl’ was even worst. I never thought I could be as angry as I was, when they told me to get a husband and think about birthing male children and leave the money matters to the men. And I could see why Feminists were on a steady increase all over the world, I could do what uncle Tony was doing with my eyes closed and my attention busy in school, I don’t need a man to take care of my father’s legacy for me. I had majority of the percentage in A.I. but those men were thorns which I couldn’t remove without hurting myself. If I decide to booth them out of the company, people will lose good will in the company since those men have always been constant and they will back out of investing in
MY PERFECT MATCH Only legends Understand.
“My God, are my eyes deceiving me or is Kola a mortal like the rest of us.” Ezekiel voice jugged me out of my thought, I jumped a little before I looked at his direction and a smile grew on my face.“Eze, my man.” I greeted but he frowned at me. He always hated it when we turned his name into an Igbo name, things guys did to have fun, I guess we never outgrow them.“I knew that you didn’t see me, I was thinking if you have started to let Tomi to influence you after all these years.” He said as he leaned against my car door.“Why?” I asked.“She has been pretending like I don’t exist when I run into her and when we are in public, she acts like it is the first time we are meeting. Which is annoying since our mothers spend time together occasionally.”“You don’t even know what you did, do you?” I shook my head at him, Tomi might be a lot of things but she isn’t a snob t
MY PERFECT MATCH When love hurts.
It has been a couple of days since I suspected Kola and Tomi… I wish I could say that it ended there but it didn’t, every new thing I discovered from there hence forth hurts. Kola might not be aware of it but he was cheating on me with Tomi. The sneaking around, the private conversations and I couldn’t even confront him because I was not supposed to know and technically they didn’t do anything wrong, technically they were just best friend but technicality didn’t fit into this scenario at all.I was still sitting in my car frozen at the car lot, staring at Kola who was busy eating ice cream with Tomi, from the same place with their bodies pressed together, when Princess told me to meet her here, I never thought that this was what I was going to find and now Princess was watching me with worry in her eyes.“I am so sorry, I never wanted you to be hurt, I only wanted you to see the truth but if you haven’t seen it with
MY PERFECT MATCH I prefer Stella.
Ever since I lied to Stella on the phone, I haven’t been able to seat still, the guilt was too much for me. I didn’t even know why I did it, after all Tomi was a friend and I could spend my lunch break with Tomi…why was I hiding my location from Stella like Tomi was a dirty little secret. There was nothing wrong with me hanging out with my best friend.“Kola, are you okay?” Tomi asked me, laying her hand on top of mine as I frowned at her actions, her touchiness this period was too much.“No, I don’t feel so good about lying to Stella, I think I would go to her office in Ikeja and spend the rest of the day with her.” I said to Tomi who shook her head at me.“But Kola, the traffic, you will have to cross to the main land. Traffic will hold you back.”“I am used to the traffic, after all I am a Lagosian. I come back with Stella this evening and if I want to beat the traffic
MY PERFECT MATCH Closure
“Stella you can’t keep moping around for a guy who doesn’t deserve it.” Princess started another tirade as soon as I entered the sitting room.Sure I can and he was completely worth it. I rolled my eyes at her even through my head ache. “You won’t understand Princess.” I tell her quietly.“Then make me understand Stella, this isn’t you. This has never been you. You are not the kind of girl who mopes around and certainly not for a guy. What did he do to you to make you fall so hard for him?”“I wish I knew babe, I wish I did but all I know was that one second, I was smiling at him and the next, I realized a had fallen in love with him… it took me a long time before I could tell him and when I finally did, I thought that he was crazy about me. I thought that here was a guy who loves me and was amazing, that here was a guy who will never hurt me.” I said with a shrug as I struggled not to cry.
MY PERFECT MATCH Heartbroken
I don’t know where I was driving to. All I knew was that I had to get away from Kola before I would run him down and I needed to get as far away from him as possible. A police checkpoint was ahead of me and when I stopped in front of them, I tried to clean my tears.“Ma’am are you Okay?” he asked as I smiled through my eyes that were watery again.“Sure officer.” I lied as I collected the driving license from my car and passed it to him.“The particulars of the car.” He added and I passed it to him too, when he saw it he nodded. “Can you park the car to the side ma’am?”“Okay.” I said confused but I parked the car any way and he took his sweet time in joining me where he told me to park the car.“I need you to call someone, every of your documents is in a good shape but you are not.”“You cannot make that assumption, I am perfectly fine.”&
