*GIVING A GENERAL POINT OF VIEW NOT CHARACTERS' BASED*

Efya placed her forehead in her palm as Sandra shook her head continuously giving Nancy the stinging glare.

"What? I only joined the pieces he said, if he's not that outspoken and very decent then he's definitely going to struggle to propose to a lady!" She clarified as Mr. Jörg took his stance with her.

They focused on the preaching, which was too loud to not be head, Nancy sat well gradually sipping on her water to avoid dozen off.

"By the way tomorrow is my birthday, my granddaughters and son will be flying in tonight, so I'm officially inviting you landlady and of course your friends."

"Oh! Happy birthday in advance sir! We will definitely be here for you!" As they went on congratulating him, the doorbell rang.

He tried excusing himself for it when unsatisfied Nancy proposed another option. "Sir! Um! I'm not trying to doubt what you said earlier, but I believe it won't be a problem if one of us gets it?" Her suggestion seemed to fall in line with the other two as they gave a nod to that.

"Alright! Pretty landlady can do that!" He accepted their suggestion, and for some reason got Nancy irked.

"Pretty landlady? Ah! Her name is Efya, or better Gwen...  She's not that pretty, that's my title, so her name is suitable!". Mr. Jörg laughed at that as Efya left to get the door.

seems the stranger was trying to get it opened by himself which accidently hit her nose and forehead, he entered and, in an attempt to hold her from falling, they both went on the ground.

"I'm so sorry I'm... I'm really sorry okay, oh God! Are you..." He took notice of her, "okay?" Efya went agape while holding on to her bleeding nose when she recognized him.

"You? What are you doing here?" He inquired. "Oh, um! Your father-in-law invited us over!" Efya responded staring intensely, quite taking aback as she thought back to the description Mr. Jörg gave them.

"Really? Do you perhaps live around? it's my, my first time seeing someone different than his normal person, um how many are you here?" He probed getting Efya to chuckle about that. "Three ladies! Are you scared of something huh?"  And inquired as he folded his legs and got comfy, he smirked whiles denying that statement, he noticed her bleeding nose.

"You, you're bleeding! Come with me to the kitchen and let me help you with it!" He helped her towards the hall and saw the set and what they were up to, he instantly recognized Nancy as she did same.

"Oh! You?" Nancy gasped and tried hiding her face with her hand "am I missing anything here? You guys know each other?" Old J inquired, "somehow, J! I accidentally hurt her, let me take care of that and come!"

"Hurry then!" He replied while they both climbed up, Nancy got her eyes behind them still trying to figure out if he really was the one described. Sandra took the moment to Know what their deal was..." How do you know him anyway?" " Not only me, but she does also! He was one of Theo's best men!"

Nancy exclaimed!

Tracing up with the blood droplets to the kitchen, he kept expressing his apology whiles applying all his knowledge of first aid, he took a moment to lock eyes with her when he noticed her stare... Efya quickly reverted her eyes.

She walked towards the sink to wash her hands. "It's hard to believe you're not a Casanova, you don't look it... At all!" She enunciated!

He inversely placed all the equipment back, "what did old J say to you guys?"  He questioned. "Old J?" Efya threw back. "He's called Jörg, my late sister's father in-law?" He responded. "Oh, sorry about that, he said tomorrow is his birthday and we're invited, nothing else! I live in number forty - nine, he saw us from up there and invited us over for church!"

Efya rinsed her hands as he threw over a napkin to her.

"I'm Heinrich, but I prefer Koffi!"  He stated, "okay! I'm Efya Gweni-boat!", Efya reached out her arm to return the napkin, "didn't ask you? Drop it there!"  Koffi responded with his hands pocketed and staring directly at her face, with a straight face.

"Oh, okay! I guess I deserve it!" She narrowed her eyes, trying to figure out something, she thought he seemed different from the side she saw the last time. "Yeah! You really do! Come on, they're still waiting for us!" He turned and left, "okay!" Efya muttered and followed suit.

Mr. Jörg continued from where they stopped, Koffi left for his luggage as Sandra nearly dreuled with her eyes kept behind him. Seems he's a lot hotter than the African sun in her eyes, Old J took notice and smirked, he looked over atEfya fidgeting her nose, "you hurt your nose? It's a little red, sorry okay!" He pacified her.

"It's okay! It was just an accident!" Koffi's ringtone sounded after her statement, a song that she seems to like, Jordan Smith's music, only love. "It's a notification!" Old J communicated and tuned it off.

He took a seat beside old J and said hi to them all, Nancy wore her confidence and responded.

"I met the two of them at my friend's wedding, I'm coming from their Thanksgiving service!" Koffi clarified when Sandra introduced herself out of the blue. They focused back on the preaching, as Efya seemed to be lost in thoughts. She felt his eyes burning her skin from afar, and slowly darted her eyes to meet his narrowed ones.

He pinched her a hesitant passionate smirk, but it was short lived as he blinked towards the preaching, seems Efya was still to discover his personality. Or perhaps, she's gradually getting opened to who he could be.

After the preaching he was on to brief old J about their encounters, but Nancy told a flipped over story, Old J also talked to him about the little he got to know about them. "You own that place?" He inquired. "It was inherited!" She responded. "I also heard you're an online writer. Your imaginations must be heavenly?" He smiled at that, whiles Efya mulled over his comment.

Old J showed his appreciation for the honors they did to his invitation and how opened his space was for them to visit anytime they wanted.

Efya's ringtone sounded "Oh! It's my, my sister... Happy birthday once again and thanks Mr. Jörg for hosting us and um... Whenever you need company or help with anything, you can call us over!"

"That won't be necessary, I'm sorry once again for crushing your nose!" They saw the ladies off, Koffi then rushed to his room upstairs once they exited the house and observed with folded arms, as they entered their space through his window.

"Hugh! F*ck!" He sighed.
