Lekki Sisi - S01 E35

Read Story: SEASON 1 EPISODE 35

I rushed ahead to the future. Wedding dress. Our apartment. Our kids. Trips to Dubai and France. Everything looked perfect. Right in the taxi, I wrote out a list of the things I’d need for my wedding. I was excited already.

Ranti opened the door even before I knocked.

‘Oh my baby! I have missed you.’ He pulled me into the room and towards the bed. I stopped him. He stared at me, puzzled.

‘We have to talk.’

Ranti frowned. ‘Can’t it wait? Babe please.’

I shook my head. ‘It can’t wait.’ He uttered a curse word. I walked passed him and sat on the bed.

‘What is it?’ Ranti was clearly upset.

‘Let’s talk about us. Where’s this relationship leading to?’

‘What the hell are you talking about?’

‘What we have together, is it a joke or it is for real?’

Ranti sat down beside me and held my hands. ‘Baby, I love you and that’s what matters.’

‘You have not answered my question. I know you love me but I want to know what plans you have for us.’

‘Plans?’

‘Yes, marriage. A woman at 31 should be in her husband’s house. Why are we wasting precious time? You don’t even have to propose. I get that you love me and want to spend the rest of your life with me. Just go ahead and put a ring to my finger.’

He let go of my hands. ‘Aren’t we are moving too fast?’

I sighed. ‘Ranti, what are we waiting for? You have a good job, you are comfortable, we’ve been together for over a year now. We love each other.’
