“You’re the worst company.” She teased.
“Hm. Just be deceiving yourself. You love it
when I’m around.”

“Your ego is bigger than my ‘ball’.” AShe
laughed and he glared at her.
“Can we get icecream before we leave?”
She asked hopefully.
“Abena, you already had icecream.” He
pointed out.

“But I want another one.” She whined
“Fine. But on one condition.” He said.
“What?”
“You don’t decorate the nursery alone. You
get an interior decorator, and then you
supervise.” He said, taking a gulp from his
Pepsi. They had finished eating.
“Why?”
“I don’t want you to get hurt while moving
things around Abena. You’ll be like the main
interior decorator, and you’ll supervise
everything to your hearts content.
Everything you say, goes.” He explained.
“Okay then. But won’t it be risky? Getting an
interior decorator. This is supposed to be
low key.” She asked.
“I have someone who is very discreet. Are
you ready to go?” He asked, standing up.
“Yes. Lets go and get icecream.” She smiled
pulling him along to Coldstone.
…

Once they were in the car, Abena dug into
her icecream.

“Don’t let that thing spill in my car.” He
warned.
“You mean the icecream?” She asked. She
had already spilled a little when they drove
over a bump.

“Abena!” He groaned.
“It was a mistake. I swear. I’m sorry. I’ll
clean it up for you.” She apologized.
“Do you know how much this car is?” He
snapped.

“Tobi chill. It’s just icecream. No big deal.
I’ll wipe it off.” She reasoned with him.
“You’re so clumsy.” He said and ignored her
throughout the car ride.

…
“Abena. This is becoming too much of a
habit.” He said knocking on her door. “You
don’t have to run into the room every time
we fight. I’m sorry I snapped. But that car is
really expensive.”
She opened the door and stared at him, her
hands on her hips.
“Then why did you buy it?”
“Because it’s sexy.” He shrugged and she
laughed. “But seriously. I ordered the car
before it even got to Nigeria. And it was
bloody expensive.”

“How much?” She asked.
“I’m not going to tell you. Before you
explode.” He laughed.
“Please.”
“No.” He walked out of the room and she
followed him.
“Pretty please.”
“Who ever said please was pretty?”
“Please please please please please.” She
sang.
“No. Stop being so annoying.” He groaned
and walked into the cinema room.
“Ohh. Lets watch a movie. I’ll pick.” She
said and rushed past him. He just laughed
and followed her.

…
As the weekend flew by, Tobi realised
something, he was gradually slipping out of
control.
He was getting attached.
