All is good in the world for Peter and Angelina as they take this big step in their lives but little did they realize that they’re about to have an unexpected company.

Somewhere within the neighborhood of Kubwa around 9:00pm, David sits in his house feeling frustrated and miserable. After his plans against Angelina and Peter failed 6 years ago, Things haven’t been going well for him.

First of all, His mates graduated while he was left behind to make up for his Spill over, which he had a hard time correcting.

Shortly after his grad ?, His Parents died in a car accident and inheritance money which was supposed to be given to him was used to pay off a huge debt his father was owing the Bank, Hoping that his father’s associates would help him out financially , He was disappointed when they ignored and abandoned him.

Thanks to the unbalanced system of Nigeria, Here he is now without a lucrative job despite his degree in the university ?. Throughout this 6 years he’s been struggling but so far there had been no luck.

Apart from being jobless, His early marriage crashes after he finds out that his wife has been cheating on him, the worst case Scenario is that all his life earnings had been stolen by armed robbers a week after his divorce.

After that David lost all faith and his sense of being, He spends endless nights drinking alcohol and sleeping with prostitutes whenever he’s in the mood for a f-ck, Since he has no job now, He starts doing small part-time jobs to make ends meet.

After going like for 6 years, David becomes a wreck and a bum, He becomes a complete mess and barely maintains his personal hygiene.

Life in Abuja has been tough thanks to the Buhari regime, He starts to economize up to the extend that he becomes a miser, His appearance is no different from a rugged ghetto thug. Whenever he’s out of cash, he starts to camouflage begging people for money making fake promises to pay back later and once he gets the money, He elopes and disappears for a while.

But his act doesn’t last long cause not everyone gives him money because of how hard the economy is.. Just when David thought his life would be over, The news of Angelina’s return caught his attention.

Ever since he realizes that Angelina is a international celebrity, David has been gunning for her.

Every night, he would spend minutes m-sturbating while thinking about her, He spends all day and night thinking of how to approach her and perhaps make her fall in love with him again.

He deludes himself thinking that She would accept him again, but he has no idea how wrong he is.

Things get out of hand, when he hears the widespread news that Angelina is engaged to Peter. Unable to control his hatred and jealousy, he falsely blames Peter for ruining his life.

David ➡ That Arrogant b-stard… First he ruins my life and now he’s trying to steal my woman. That Loser… He’s the reason why I’m like this… I won’t stand here and let him have Angelina.. She’s mine and mine alone.

I have to make my move.. Angelina must be mine.. I know she’s a sweet gal and I’m sure she would listen to me considering the good time we’ve had together. Once I get her back.. My life would be just like the way it was.

#ANGELINA

My Goodness.. What a fantastic night, I never thought I’d have a good time having 3some with Peter and Charlene.

But I must say, the idea was crazy and as Peter said, it’s inappropriate but since it’s a one time thing, it’s cool.

Peter too enjoyed the 3some with me and Charlene but he never said anything about it, In fact he pretended as if it never happened.

After that wild night, Peter and I told our parents that we were both getting married , they were so full of excitement, Peter’s mom and mine were the most excited one, they spent all day calling their relatives telling them the good news and they began to make plans for the wedding.

I too also told Ming and Happiness about my wedding with Peter and they were excited for me as well, the only thing they weren’t excited about was the 3some I had.

Ming ➡ (speaking Chinese) Nī fēngle!?

Nǐ suǒ zuò de shì fēngkuáng….. (Are you crazy? What you did is madness)

Happiness ➡ I don’t understand what she said but I agree with her… Angelina that was crazy… It’s risky you know.. This is your cousin, we’re talking about.. What were you thinking?

Angelina ➡ Look, I know it’s inappropriate but I wanted to make Peter happy.

Ming ➡ Happy?… Having a 3some isn’t happiness.. It’s lust.. I can’t believe you let your cousin influence you.

Happiness ➡ Wallahi! Have you forgotten what she did to you 6 years ago? Maybe you need a slap to refresh your memory!

Angelina ➡ JESUS CHRIST! Will you please both get off my back!? Alright I admit what I did was pretty stupid. But it won’t happen again.

Happiness ➡ What did Peter say about it?

Angelina ➡ Nothing… He hasn’t even for once talked about the issue but I know he wasn’t happy with it.

Ming ➡ He won’t.. Unlike you, he doesn’t forget easily. I hope Charlene won’t make a move on Peter.

Angelina ➡Don’t worry.. She wouldn’t dare… Please can we drop this unpleasant talk and discuss about my wedding..

Ming ➡ So.. How would you like your wedding to be?

Angelina ➡ Private.. I don’t want too much crowd.. Just friends and family.

Happiness ➡ Aren’t you going to do any occasions.. Like Bridal showers, pre wedding pics and those other stuff?

Angelina ➡ No way in hell.. That’s a waste of time and money.. I want my wedding to be simple and quaint.

Ming ➡ Hmm, I can’t blame you.. All of these recent weddings are getting out of hand. They’re turning out to be a party club instead of a sacred ceremony.

Happiness ➡ Wallahi! Have you seen the wedding of Buhari’s son.. It’s pure madness and waste of money.

Ming ➡ So Angelina.. Have you started your wedding shopping?

Angelina ➡ Yes.. My mother and mother in law are taking care of that.. I still haven’t decided with wedding gown to wear.

Happiness ➡ Wedding gown? Come on.. We have the best wedding gowns shops here in Abuja.

Angelina ➡ I know but I don’t want to wear a white one.. I want something new, something rare which no one has ever worn before.

Ming ➡ Well, while you’re battling with which gown to wear, Here are two ticket ? to be best honeymoon hotels in China.

Angelina ➡ Thanks Ming!

Ming ➡ You’re welcome friend.

Two weeks passed since we had that conversation, and plans of my wedding arrangements was going smoothly.

But a week after the announcement of our marriage, Peter’s relatives met with my parents and paid the bride price, after that the wedding date was fixed and then the wedding shopping spree began.

As usual, Peter spared no expense for my wedding shopping, He was spending quite a lot even when I wasn’t asking him to and I was starting to get worried, So I made things easy for him by helping him out financially, I told his mother to invest some of his money elsewhere cause we might need it for something else in the future, she agreed and kept this affair of mine a secret from him cause it might hurt his pride and ego if he ever found out that I was financially supporting him.

Also the news of my wedding was now publicly known, and everyone of my fans began sending me their well wishes. Just when things were going smoothly for me, something strange began to happen.

One afternoon, after spending hours shopping, I headed to the parking lot and approached my car when I saw a letter on my windshield, I cautiously opened the letter and read what was in it. It was a love letter to me but the person who wrote this didn’t put his name but there was something familiar about the writing, At first I didn’t take this seriously but then the letters ? kept showing at the places I usually hangout and the contents in them were full with dirty and lustful thoughts.

I haven’t told anyone about it yet but I realized that I was being stalked and followed by someone else.

After a while, The letters ? stopped coming and I began to get texts messages instead from a private number, The texts were even worst than the letters ? it reached to the extent that my stalker was sending me nude pics of himself from the chest downwards and most of the pictures were images of his d-ck.

I soon got worried and decided to talk to Happiness’s Aunt, detective Denise. Luckily for me, she was still working as a police, So Happiness set up a meeting for us to meet , I drove to her place one Tuesday afternoon to talk to her.

She was in her office sipping a hot cup of ginger tea when I walked in, I didn’t recognize her at first until I saw her face clearly, She had grown quite older and it’s been long we last saw each other.

Angelina ➡ Good afternoon..

Denise ➡ Ah. Angelina Felix.. Come have a seat.. My niece told me you would come.. My God, you look lovely.

Angelina ➡ Thank you ma.

After I took my seat, we exchanged pleasantries and talked about the old days when we apprehended Alhaji Sule, we shared a few laughs before I told her about my problem.

Denise ➡ So Angelina.. I hear you want to report a problem?

Angelina ➡ Yes..

Denise ➡ What is it?

Angelina ➡ Well, you see ma.. I’m been stalked by someone, Somebody is following me.

Denise ➡ Stalked you say? Maybe it’s one of your fans.. You have a lot of them here in the police station.

Angelina ➡ Still, I don’t like being stalked.. My wedding is coming up in two weeks and I have baby on the way.. I don’t want any mishaps to sabotage my life.

Denise ➡ Have you see this stalker?

Angelina ➡ No but he has been sending me disgusting texts messages and awful pictures of his private parts.. This is nonsense. Here let me show you.

I brought out my phone and showed her the texts and pictures that were being sent to me.. Denise’s eyes was glued on the texts as she read them, after she was done.. She gave me back my phone.

Denise ➡ Hmm, this is a serious matter.. My suggestion is for you is play along until you see the face of your stalker.. Once you do that don’t hesitate to give me a call.

Angelina ➡ Thanks.

Denise ➡ Also in the meantime.. Watch your back and don’t wander at night. It’s too risky.. Does anyone know about this?

Angelina ➡ No.. I haven’t told anyone yet.

Denise ➡ I suggest you do, in case anything happens to you.

Angelina ➡ Okay.. I will. Thanks for your time.

Denise ➡ You’re welcome.. Greet your fiancee for me.

Angelina ➡ I will.

Later that day in evening , I was in the gym alone working out a little.. I have been busy with my wedding plans that I haven’t had time to work on my figure.

After spending almost an hour on the Treadmill and rowing machine, I decided to go home and rest, I was sweating so much that one might think I came out of the swimming pool, as I headed out of the gym, I let my hair loose behind my back and headed to the parking lot where my car was.. Upon getting there, I saw a stranger standing next to my car.

Angelina ➡ HEY! Who are you? What are you doing near my car?

The stranger was startled at first, but he stood his ground and faced me, I was shocked when I saw who it was.

Angelina ➡ Oh my God!… David.. Is that you?

David ➡ In the flesh baby.. In the flesh. Did you miss me?

I couldn’t give him an answer cause I was too shocked by his appearance.. I couldn’t believe this was David.. The David I knew back then was handsome and good looking but what I’m seeing right here is a opposite of that David.

His clothes had faded and worn out so much that it could tear with just a little pull, On top of that, it was squeezed and messed up . His face was filled with eczema, his hair and beard looked so twisted and dirty, I nearly covered my eyes as he smiled at me.. His teeth was yellowish and dirty, the edge of his lips was some kind of disgusting pus and not to mention the stinky aura around him as if a rat had died.

Despite the fact, he was a wicked b-stard, I felt really sorry for him.. Just what in the world happened to him.

Angelina ➡ David… What happened to you.. You loom awful.

David ➡ A lot has happened to me, Angel. I see Life is treating you well? I’m sorry if I scared you.

Angelina ➡ Not at all.. Why don’t we get into the gym so we can share a drink and talk. My treat.

David ➡ Sure.

After that, David and I headed back into the gym, We sat at the gym’s mini refreshment stand and talked about a lot of things.. He told me about the death of his parents, the huge debt his father had left, and the crash of his marriage. I listened to him with rapt attention feeling sorry for him, But then in that moment, I realized his eyes were on my bre-sts as we talked and he was using maneuvers to try to touch my hands but I smartly avoided him. After he was done, k gave him my condolences.

Angelina ➡ Jesus David… I just feel sorry for you right now. Life hasn’t been fair to you.

David ➡ Yes.. I agree. Life is cruel, you know.

Angelina ➡ Listen.. If there’s anything i can do to help you… Just let me know.

David ➡ Well, I’m actually in need of financial assistance.. I really don’t know what to do.

Angelina ➡ Well.. I do have some cash to help you out with. Do you have a bank account?

David ➡ Yes.. Should I tell you the digits?

Angelina ➡ Sure.. Call out the digits and tell me the bank name.

David gave me his bank account and bank name, I brought out my phone and sent him 500,000 naira to manage. It was the least I could to help him out, I just hope it’s enough for him to get settled.

Angelina ➡ Okay. I’ve sent you the money.

David ➡ Thank you Angelina.. Thank you.

Angelina ➡ You’re welcome. Okay.. I’ll be going now.

David ➡ Okay.. Angel.. Uhm.. If you don’t mind.. I’d like us to meet again sometime.

Angelina ➡ Sorry. That won’t be possible.. I’m busy planning for my wedding.

Dave ➡ Wedding?

Angelina ➡ Yes. I’m getting married to Peter two weeks from now.

David ➡ Oh.. Congratulations.

Angelina ➡ Thanks.. See you around David.. I hope God blessings shines on you.

After I said that, I left the gym and headed to the parking lot, I entered my car and drove straight home.. I can’t wait to tell Peter what I just saw. Life is really full of ups and downs.
