KHALID

I was more than shocked to see Abimbola walk into the living room that afternoon.

"Why are you so surprised to see me?" She queried with a wide smile before joining me on the two-seater, I moved away quickly.

"Are you running away from me?" She inquired and I scoffed.

"Why would I? Anyway, what do you want?"

She squeezed her face, "So, I can't visit you again, must I have a reason to visit you?"

"You visiting me out of the blue shows you have a reason."

"I don't have any reason," she deadpanned and I nodded before turning back to the TV.

We stayed in silence for a couple of minutes before she broke the ice, "Won't you talk to me? Don't you miss me?"

I wanted to laugh loudly but I decided against it, "Did you come here because of that?"

She smiled, "Anyway, I missed you, I missed you so much, I..."

I cut her off, "Why are you na telling me? Should I act on it or what?"

She moved closer to me, "You didn't miss me at all?" She wanted to touch my hand but I moved it away before she could, she frowned before continuing, "Don't you miss us?"

I scoffed, "Who and who? See, Bimbola if you're not here for anything reasonable then I think you should just go back home because all this one can't work."

She glared at me and I ignored her, "Are you with Kikiope now?"

"And how is that any of your business?"

She opened her mouth to reply but the appearance of my mom stopped her.

"Khalid, we..." She looked at Abimbola who quickly smiled and greeted her before turning to me, "I didn't know you had a visitor."

"No, what were you saying?"

"You haven't been to my mall, so, your dad decided we all go later in the day or should we go now?"

I slipped my legs into my slippers, "We can go now, I've been meaning to go there."

She glanced at Abimbola, "What of your friend?"

"Don't worry about her," and with that I headed towards my room ignoring Abimbola's calls behind me.

She'd left when I got back to the living room, so, I just walked to my parents room only for me to meet them kissing.

"Oh...sorry," I said with a tugging smile and they smiled at me before standing up. The few days I'd been home had shown they were getting better, they were now intimate and looked like real couples. I'd never seen my parents happy the way they'd been during this break.

"Let's go," my dad announced, and we all trooped out of the room.

Dad decided to drive us himself and all through the ride all he did was chat with my mom while I only smiled at their display of affection.

When we swerved into the car park, I was somehow confused 'cause we were at dad's company.

"I thought we were visiting mum's new mall?" I voiced out as soon as we got out of the car. They both turned to me.

"Yeah," dad replied and I squeezed my face.

"Here?" I looked around trying to sight where the mall could possibly be between the two high rise buildings facing me which was undoubtedly dad's company.
