Kemi's Pov.

His attention seamed to be else where. He barely ate half of the content on his platter. I couldn't read his facial expression but from the little i could tell, all wasn't well.

"Hey are you listening ?." I broke in .

He didn't respond but kept staring at something from his phone.

Was it the message from his girlfriend that got him so worked up?.

"Kemi i appreciate your kind gesture and assistance but i have some thing urgent to attend to". He announced getting up to dress. I stared at his physical appearance taking hint of his broad shoulders and masculine form then the obvious bulge of his boxer.I stared away feeling embarrassed by my shameful act.

"Okay .." I finally replied handing over his suit to him .I didn't like his sudden change in attitude and I wouldn't lie.

I felt bad he was leaving.

"Its not a bad idea if you want to go settle your beef with Sharon". I added regretting my statement immediately.

What is your problem kemi? Mind your business!

Meanwhile he ignored me or maybe he was too engrossed in getting dressed and didn't hear me.

"Am sorry if your upset that i read your text". I apologized . " I promise it wasn't intentional".

"Why do you like jumping into conclusions?." He whisper yelled, his gaze keenly on me."I will send you cash to makeup for every inconvenience i have cost you .I have to leave now".

I stared back at him loss for words. He was angry and his facial expression held no humor atall.

"Are you seriously acting like this because of a breakup?." I questioned still regretting my words again.

I needed to lock my mouth with a padlock and throw the keys into a sea. I was talking way too much.

He stared at me shaking his head. By now he was cladded fully in his tan suit and looked like the Victor I knew.

"Try to stop jumping into conclusions". He advised folding his arms.

"Am not jumping into conclusions ". I defended ." It's obvious ,else why did you drink the way you did yesterday? I questioned.

He walked to my direction ,his eyes boring into mine, he seamed to be affected by my last statement.

"That's not your business and try to stop poke nosing". He replied.

I swallowed up the words in my mouth . His reply was the least information i had planned to receive.

"Its fine .. you can go , meanwhile don't forget to pay for the inconveniences you cost me ". I replied.

I felt like another human was using my mouth to speak. Why was I becoming so insensitive?

He narrowed his eyes and a small smirk appeared on his lips. Taking his phone from his pocket he punched some keywords hurriedly.

"I hope you wouldn't make a huge nuisance about this in the future and go about posting on social media how Victor Adetunde is indebted to you". Came is shocking words.

God! Was that how he saw me.. I only said those words out of anger now he is saying...

My phone vibrated immediately and the color on my face drained. He had sent one million naira. On a normal day I would have jumped and danced over such amount of money but today seamed different.

I felt i had robbed an innocent person of his money.

****

I sat on the couch eating from a large bowl of popcorn ,i wasn't having a Netflix and chill moment .No!. far from it.

I was angry with myself, angry with my stupid behavior i exhibited some hours ago, angry at my insensitive ass.

Two hours had passed since Victor had left ,his facial expression before he walked out from my house is something i wanted to erase and send to the pit of hell.

I wouldn't lie I felt more irritated at my actions than he did.

"Kemi ..". Ronke called out running to my direction. The wrapper she tied above her chest was almost pulling off and her facial expression was incomprehendible.

"Are you here to remind me that i acted like an ass some hours ago?. I questioned taking in her appearance.

"Maybe when you see this you will understand that your were really an ass". She mocked making me feel unease.

"Are we still on this Victor case?." I questioned.

She gave me one of those her quizzical look and shrugged.

"Read this ".She instructed throwing her phone to the couch i was seated on. Returning a puzzled look i pick the phone scrolling too see the reason behind all her little drama.

My eyes widened in shock as i consumed the little headline on her cellphone , unconsciously my breathing increased and I found it hard to breathe.

"Abeg bloggers will always create wild stories". I retorted calming my nerves.

"So were my thoughts few minutes ago".Ronke replied taking a seat next to mine.

"This guy is popular , bloggers will always find a way to get attention with their fake stories". I convinced.

"Slide to the next post and watch the video". Ronke instructed, I eyed her doing as instructed.

I was becoming fed up with her little drama.

This time I knew my conscious state had been replaced with sub consciousness. I stared at the video then shifted my gaze to Ronke speechless.

"Wait is this the reason he was acting awkward?." I questioned not sure about why I was asking.

Everything was so clear now.

I dropped the phone to the couch covering my face with my palms. It seamed Ronke had put the television on as the light rays pulled in following the voices from the television . I pulled my hands away from my face shifting my gaze to the television. I winced.

"This wasn't a bloody rumor or stunt pulled out by some bloggers. It was real!!.

The headline on the news held every information I needed.

Victor Adetunde Amofe wasn't the legitimate son of the former ex senator. And he had a twin.

Like a twin!!.
