Osas P.o.v

"I can't believe what just happened." We were all on the couch.

"Why did you stop me ?" Micheal asked.

" Hitting a woman makes you less a man. No matter how angry you are you don't slap a female."

" She's right Michael but she did deserve a slap."

"I really can't blame her guys." I said.

" What are you saying?".

" When she was leaving she said something about Rasaq. Maybe she's still hurt about -"

"Mxww. Abeg is that why she would act like this." Ruth said.

" Just think about it guys."

" Why are you trying to defend her?" Micheal inquired.

" Cause she's my sister." I shrugged.

" Your sister? She denies you ever being her sister."

" I'll still have a talk with her." I said.

" Please when your having this talk let Michael or anyone follow you so that nothing will happen to you."

" Nothing will happen to me Ruth."

" She fit kill you. I'm just saying."

I chuckled. " There are things ola can do and I doubt killing is part."

Ruth clicked her tongue." Okayy oh. Sha take someone with you when you want to talk to her." She stood. " I'm going to cook food for the night. Let me leave the couple alone." She winked at me as headed to the kitchen.

" How is your face ?" He touched the cheek that ola slapped.

" It's fine." I caught his gaze and my thoughts went to sn hour ago when I and Micheal were making out.

We didn't have sex. He had said he wanted it to be a very special day.

Had he though of marriage?.

" I shouldn't have let her slap you.its my fault."

" Oh c'mon it's not your fault." I pushed him slightly.

He smiled." Were are you getting strong to?." He pulled me into his arms, wrapping them around me." I'm really sorry Osas."

I lifted my head. He was frowning.

"I said it's okay. Not as if you that strong to even hit her. Your Soo weak." I teased.

He smiled." Your boyfriend is weak ?" He began to tickle me.

"Mi.. Michael stop (laughter) stop. I'm (more laughter) I'm ticklish." I wriggled from his arm but he dragged me back. "I love your smile." He smacked my lips with his.

He reached for my breast and gave it a playfully squeeze.

"Sorry."

We both broke apart.

"Oh. Hi Nonso." I re adjusted my clothes.

I tried to shift away from Micheal but he held me firm. His hands placed around my shoulder protectively.

"Sorry for disrupting you both." He said.

Something flashed in his eyes but it was gone.

"It's okay. Thanks for helping us with Ola." Micheal said.

"It's no problem. I wanted to check on Osas but I'll come back later."

He headed out.

There was something in his tone. it felt like he was sad. Did something happen to him that he wanted to tell me about.

"So where were we?." Micheal crooned as he held my waist.

"I'm sorry." I shifted away." I wanted to ask Nonso something."

He frowned." Does Nonso like you?."

I laughed." Of course not. He has someone else his in love with it."

"He told you that?" He still looked unsure.

"Yeah." I pecked him on the lips and rose." I'll be right back."

"I'm waiting."

Nonso was sitting under the......

"My Oga" I said as I came closer.

He tucked his phone into his pocket." What are you doing out here?"

"It looked like something was bothering you when you came to check on me. Are you okay?".

I sag down opposite him.

He smiled." I'm okay Osas. You should not have left Michael since you guys were..." His voice trailed and I felt my face become warm.

"Your also my friend.so what's wrong?."

He bit his lips." Clement told me what happened yesterday. I can't believe Ola".

I shrugged." She's just going through a phase."

"A phase?" He laughed.

I nodded." But I'm okay now."

"I can see that."

"Micheal asked me whether you liked me." I chuckled." Can you imagine that question. I told him you were in love with another lady. Aren't you?."

He laughed." Of course I'm still in love with that lady. I could die for her."

"Ahh ahah.. oga romance." I punched him.

"That's how much she means to me."

"Lucky her." I said.

"Yeah lucky." He was still smiling but why am I getting the feeling I said something wrong.

Zina P.o.v

We were at the airport. Again. This time we were going to finally meet his parents.

Ever since last night Seyi had been awfully quiet. It bothered me but as long as he didn't talk to Osas I can manage but still..

" What are you thinking about?" I asked him as he stared at his phone.

" Nothing." He muttered.

"C'mon Seyi. You've been quiet since yesterday."

" It's about my company.' his eyes were still fixed on his phone.

At least it wasn't Osas. I mused.

" What's wrong with your company?"

He finally glanced at me. Surprise filled his eyes." Your asking about the company?"

" Yeah. If the company matters to you then it matters to me." I stated.

He looked unsure." My company......"

I leg his voice trail from my mind. There was no way I'm concerned about that stupid company.

Because of that company he has practically forgotten about me.
