Twenty-six-year-old Kasiemobi Ejindu knows something sinister has been moving on with her for as long as she could recall even though she's oblivious of its true threats but a shocking revelation regarding her ancestral background and her sudden encounter with a young Hispanic-American pastor might just be her first true direction to finding salvation and love. * * * It's Christmas holiday, a time of joy, relaxation, thanksgiving and being with family but not for Kasiemobi, well, at least not this year. Twenty-six-year-old Kasiemobi Ejindu is conscious of the fact that something sinister has entwined with her life for as long as she could recall, and even though she is oblivious of the true threat it poses, she has learned to live with it. That is until a week before Christmas when her fiancée abruptly breaks off their engagement and she eventually travels to her hometown alone on major account of her young cousin's wedding. There, she meets Cergio Suarez, a young Hispanic-American pastor whose company she eventually grows fond of but their relationship-and ultimately her life is threatened by forces beyond her control and if she doesn't give into its demand, she stands a chance of losing her entire family and what they stand for. 2021 ©️

Well, I Olaniyi Omotoke wasn't exempted from this fantasy, infact I was the queen of fantasizing. Korean movies weren't helping either. I was waiting and anxiously waiting for THAT particularly GUY. But if anyone told me, that THAT GUY was going to be Ajayi-Ayodele Philip,Boston's most sought after guy, he was my one year senior and also the school Assistant Senior Prefect Boy. Philip was perfect. He was God's own made human. I was sure, God took a day off to create him and God was extremely patient in creating. But I never saw him except assembly days because SS3 block was segregated from the normal Senior Secondary School Academic Block, you couldn't just run into any SS3 student not to talk of Snr Phil, that was what everyone called him. But here's the question, what if to THAT GUY, am not THAT GIRL?
