Ethan
I met Mr Nwosu again after ten years, he use to work in my father's company before he got framed and fired, when my dad discovered the truth, he was called back but he refused, I met him again at a business meeting, he's my client's lawyer, he came with him to make a deal, we planned to meet later, now he's sitting in front of me in a pub.
"Mr Nwosu, I'm sorry for what happened ten years ago, my dad felt really bad about it, he didn't do that on purpose" I apologized to him
"It's okay Ethan, I understand, if I were him I would do the same thing.
"Can I make it up to you in anyway? Would you like to work as my personal assistant?"
"Ermmm, I believe you know I studied law in school, my father wants me to be a business man, when I read law in school without the consent of my father, he sent me out and said I can come back when I become a business man, I met your father and he helped me to work in his company without qualifications so that my dad will take me back. But since he fired me, I was called to bar and became a full time lawyer" he said with a full smile
"Oh, I'm so happy for you" I said happily
"I helped a girl to retrieve her properties from some greedy people six years ago, it was my first case and I won, I've won many more after that... " He gulped the rest of his whiskey with pride.
"But is there still anything I can do for you?" I pleaded
"Sure, there is, I'll be glad if you can hire a girl I know, she studied business in Western University, she is well behaved and you won't regret ever hiring her"
"She's already hired, tell her to come with her CV tomorrow "
"Thanks Ethan, I've to go tell her the good news, we'll see some other time" he said stood up
"Please do, see you soon... " He left after that, at least hiring the girl he's talking about will lift the guilt in my father's heart, I thought.
I finished my drink, on my way out I met Benita, she's a model and my fucking buddy, she's tall, slim, ebony, and a blond hair I guess it's a wig or extension. Also, she's extremely pretty.
"Hi Ethan" she greeted hugging me
"Hey babe, what are you doing here?"
"Just to grab a few drinks, you leaving already?"
"Yeah"
"You want me to come with you" she winked
"My father is in the country, I'm meeting him right now" I lied
"Okay then" she walked away hesitantly as if she knew I lied
I walked out, entered my car, cadillac XT5 and ordered my driver to drive home, when I got home, I showered and went straight to bed.

The following morning, I worked out, ate breakfast and left for work. When I got there, my secretary Felicity greeted
"Morning Mr Wellington" I waved her to sit after nodding to her greeting, I entered my office and started working on my laptop, I got a call from Felicity saying Miss Onuorah wants to see me.
The name rang a bell in my ear, but it can't be her, I told Felicity to tell her to wait a bit to finish what I'm doing. I called her back after 10minutes to tell her to come in.
After a while, I heard a knock and I said ''come in''
She entered and I got dumbstruck, it's her! The girl I ran away from six years ago! She's there looking like a super model in a white chiffon shirt, black tight pencil skirt that hugged her buttocks and a black shining heels, her long natural hair is shining and her lips.... Her lips that I've been craving for, for years in a nude lipstick, she looks financially okay now, She's shocked to see me as well, she closed her eyes and when she opened it, she wore a big smile as if she's seeing me for the first time.
