                        Past
                       Tara

One month had passed, but the memories of the guy that answered the BCH question couldn't leave my mind. I gushes over the voice whenever I remember about it. I smile to myself whenever I remember about it again, it really pained me that I didn't get to see his face. That was me telling my best friend Cas.....

"What is his name?" She asked

"His name is Eric, a 300L Industrial Chemistry student," I replied her

"Wow you mean the same Eric Olaosebikan, the son of Engr. Olaosebikan of the Best Global Industries," She said

"OMG!, are you for real?, no wonder he has an angelic voice. But wait o, how did you know him? " I asked her

"Babes, he stays in the same lodge with my boyfriend," She replied

"Oh wow, that is nice." I said finally

"But Tara, this one that you are talking about him all the time, don't tell me you already had a crush on him?" She asked me

"Yes I had a crush on him and I pray we cross paths." I finally told her

                       Present
                       Tara

Being a domestic violence nurse could be very stressful at times but it also has its own benefit. You tends to meet different people all the time.

I wonder why some men behave like animal sometimes. The last case brought to my table was so disheartening.

I couldn't help but think about it. The man would beat his wife blue and black and later rape her... Gosh who does that. The lady was so depressed when she came to my office, I had to direct her to my charity organization for better care.

Yeah apart from my modelling and nursing career, I also run a charity organization for domestic violence. My ringing tone jolts me out of my thought....seems like is my manager calling....

"Hy Manager," I said teasing him

"Watssup Babe....have told you to stop this manager teasing stuff," he said

"Lol...am not lying nah, are you not managing me very well?" I couldn't help but laugh

"Yeah I am but it would had been better, if you allowed me to mange the other side of you very well." He said emphasizing the last part

"Alex nah, please let's not go to that discussion today." I said knowing where the discussion will lead to.

"Okay babe. Anyways I called to inform you that you have been chosen to be the brand ambassador of Best Global Petrochemical Ltd," He said

"Yay; are you seriously serious about it?" I asked him

"Yeah babe, your contract with them start in the next three month.... Congratulations baby." He said finally

"Awnn...Awnn....thanks so much dear. Am so happy right now," I said with so much excitement

"Anything for you babe.... I have to go now, will talk to you later.  Bye." He said

"Bye and take care of yourself." I said while I hung up the call

Yeah, that is Alexander Badmus. My one hell stubborn manager. We clicked at an audition held for models three years ago.

Being an upcoming, which I was then, he offered to be my manager and I accepted the offer right away.

Apart from being my manager, he had been a supportive, caring and a loyal friend.

But something happened last year, when we went for a photoshoot at Santorini(Greece).....
                        

Flashback

"Alex what is so special about this sunset that everyone came to look at?" I asked

"Babe chillax, you will soon know." he said reassuredly

"Wow, this is very beautiful, I wished am staying here to be able to see the sunset everyday," I said

"I told you... But you know watching you is more beautiful than this sunset.... Because you glow even without a sun. You are the dream woman of every guy. And you wouldn't blame me if I said am already in love with you." Alex said finally

"Gosh.... I can't believe it," I said not knowing what to say

"Yeah I know you wouldn't want to. But babe believe me, I really love you and I wouldn't mind you being my girlfriend. I love you to the extent that you are the only one that comes to my mind day-in-day-out." He said finally

"Alex, I wouldn't want to hurt your feelings because am not ready for a relationship right now. You are a great guy and every lady will want to have you as their husband but am so sorry I can't accept your proposal." I said though I felt sorry for him but there is nothing I could do

"Okay babe... I won't force you but I won't also give up on you." He said with a tone of finality.
           (End of flashback )

But ever since then, he never ceased to showed me how much he loves and care for me with every opportunity he got.

Wow am the brand ambassador of Best Global Petrochemical Ltd. But the name rings a bell.

"Could it be that he is back in Nigeria?"

No it can't be.... He can't be in Nigeria without reaching out to me.

"But Tara is being seven years already." My subconscious told me.

I quickly brushed the thought aside and hope it is not true.
