"Ai you can drive?"

"Eh!?" I almost choked.

Me drive?

No.

Please oh.

"Ehn." he tossed the car keys to me the minute we got outside.

"Noo oh sorry I can't."

Why did I just grab the car keys??

Probably because you didn't want expensive car keys falling to the ground anyhow.

True.

"That car." he pointed to his black BMW.

My dream car!

God I've dreamt of driving this car.
Wait oh, not because the car is fine and all but because it belongs to badman.

Oh all those snapchats. Darm!

But kut I ain't driving.

"Arhmm look hai...."

This feels wrong. Should I say Haidar??
As in say it out loud. It just feels wrong.

Ha hiadarr.
Naah feels wrong from my mouth.
Abeg the name is too somehow.Too fake,
but Haidar sounds like someone who is responsible, kind, loving, caring, honest, God fearing and any other thing that badman isn't.

Just call him badman and go.

"Arrhmmm." I cleared my throat.

The guy was atleast 10stepsahead of me but at last I got his attention.
He stopped to look at me.
I had his car keys stuck in between my fingers awkwardly.

"Please." I begged.

"Don't let me drive."

"I can't drive." I spoke out.

"Babe why you lying?? I saw your driver's licenses." his Hausa accent is just funny like english is not by force guy.

Free it.

"My license???" My head started to bang.

Which drivers license?? I only have learners permit.

How does he know about it?

How is he so sure I can drive??

Your purse!

He snooped.

"You checked my purse!" I said almost shouting.

He just shot a smile at me.

That I'm guilty but not sorry smile.

Oh the nerve!

Can't wait to get away from you and your drama.

"Good, now go drive our dream car let's go home, it's late fah."

And it's true fah. It's completely dark outside. Only lamp lights shine.

"The doors." he commanded me.

I found my self quickly clicking the open doors button on the car keys remote button.
