PRESENT

I reached my destination which was a huge shop, i horned and a man in his early thirties came out, i only whined down my windscreen a bit,

"Celeste Liquor" i asked straight forward

"Y.. Yes.. 75 thousand Naira a bottle" he said, i expected it and one might wonder how i get to afford such in UK,

First thing first, i get money from different source apart from my parents like, my mothers' senior brother Uncle Rashad who runs the Family bussiness after the demise of their father, my grandfather, then the college i attend gives us forum to design and submit any clothing every month and the top three will be sold displayed for celebrities to buy, and am proud to say i always emerge amongst the three and i get huge amount of money from each design and i even get to design red carpet dresses for three top most celebrites,

So with the money coming i get to afford what i want,

So when he told me the amount i handed, i handed him 6 bundles of 1000 naira notes making 600 hundred thousand and an extra 100k for a complete pack of the liquor which was 9 bottles per pack which am sure i will exhaust in just a week and maybe a day, because everyday i take 2 to 2and a halve bottle of my liquor,

With the remaining change, i brought two packs of my mentholated cigar and have already smoked two sticks before reaching home(oh not after i bought three packs of Pizza and a chocolate chip Pizza) , i made sure my drink was hidden in a compartment inside the booth of the car which no one will notice that is after i downed one bottle,

So i came out slightly tipsy, and closed the door just when i perceived his scent, that scent i loved and now hate, the scent of K. Simone. I looked up to find his eyes on me and i took in his present features of just 35,

He still looks young and hot and say what he is already a millionaire,

"Aleesa" he called softly, back in the days i love to hear him say my name, but now i hate it,

"I met Adnan" i said folding my hands,

"Yeah i know" he said bowing his head,

"Born five months after your wedding" i added and he quickly looked up at him,

"Yeah i know i mean you don't expect everyone to keep shut"

"Its complicated" he said,

"Why wouldn't it be, you impregnated her, married her and when the baby came you all lied to those who will believe you that it was a premature baby of five months, really Naseem, thats lame, atleast your parents and sisters knew the truth, so do i, i pity the innocent child you drag into all this mess you call your life" i said and made to walk away, but he grabbed me by my arm and made me turn to him,

"I was hoping you will understand"

"Yeah, i do understand Naseem, that while you were dating me, you cheated on me and impregnated your ex and then what, you dumped me and get married to her, yeah i perfectly understand"

"Look i..... "I don't want you hear anything else Naseem, let me go before the tiny respect i have left for you as the senior brother of my friend disappears like puff", he let my arm go and i walked away.

ALEESA

The next morning i woke up early around 7 (i am the early morning type),

I sneaked out still in my robe and my hair in a messy bun, i downed halve a bottle in the car and headed into the kitchen,
