Val's Diary Series (Life As An Adult) - Season 1 - Episode 45

I had no choice than to call back Adaora’s mother and tell her that i will be coming over on Wednesday.

Early Wednesday morning, i headed to Abuja without even telling Frank. Of course i knew he would try to discourage me from going and i felt it was appropriate to keep him in the dark over the current situation at least till i get back.

I got to Abuja that fateful day right on time to be at Adaora’s house by 5:20pm. Her mum was at home, eagerly waiting for me, but unfortunately Adaora wasn’t…..

I really had a long discussion with the good old lady who once again repeated the story she told me over the phone on Monday.
“seriously it took me quite a lot to prevent Adaora from spending one night in police custody. And ever since then, the police has been coming here everyday under one guise or another. I’m completely fed up and the whole thing is really draining my resources. You know i’m a politician and the last thing i want is this silly affair getting to the press and public. Adaora equally isn’t helping at all. I really don’t understand the type of friends she’s keeping nowadays. It pains me that she was level headed during her days as a student but now turning to something else as an adult” she breathed seriously.
“don’t worry mum, i can fix everything. Just give me a little time. Trust me” i promised and stood up to leave.
“so where are you going?. Aren’t you going to spend the night here?” she asked with concern.

“i planned staying with a friend. Don’t worry about me mum” i answered, smiled and left. But as i left the sitting room, on my way to the gate. I ran into Adaora and a fair plump boy who matched the description Tessy gave me on monday. I frowned on seeing him, while Adaora casually greeted me and walked past me into the house. The boy however stopped and stared at me coldly.
“i have heard a lot about you. But you should know one thing. Your era with Adaora is over. Stop bugging her life” he said like a threat. I scoffed.
“you know what?, i got something right now that you don’t have” he boasted.
“and what’s that?” i asked.
“ADAORA’S LOVE”.. he muttered rudely..
I grabbed him by the collar, ready for a fight..
