Must Read: Compatibles

Her iphone rang, it was Sylvester calling, a friend of the family, a young rich guy.


She felt reluctant to pick the call but did
“Hello, Sylvester” she said
“Hello Love”
“Who’s love?”
“Come on sweetie”
“Look Sylvester, I’m not in the mood”
“I wanna take you out”
“Am not interested” she said
“Why?”
“Look I don’t wanna be one of your mistresses; I want a life of my own, ok?”
“I can give you a life” he said
“Excuse me? I have a life better than yours and besides you are not the guy I want” she said
“What the hell does that mean?”
“It meant what you heard”
“F**K you” he yelled
Oluchi hanged up on him, she never liked him, and he was a pest to her
Jane came into the office
“Good morning, Ma”
“Good morning miss Jane. What do you have for me?” she asked; Jane went back to her office & came back with heaps of documents
“O come on Jane, I don’t wanna die on paper” she said; Jane smiled
“Don’t worry all you need to do is skim through then sign” Jane replied
“Thank God”
“We have a meeting with Panasonic & Samsung by 2pm” Jane said
“Alright then call me the senior director, we need to have a meeting” Oluchi said without looking up



The day was perfect for Oluchi, she arrived home by 6:40pm totally exhausted she rushed into the shower after that she relaxed in one of the bath tub in warm water her beautiful body shone in the she didn’t know when she slept off in the water. When she opened her eyes & saw the clock, she discovered she had been in the water for 2 hours; she jumped out of the water & picked her towel on the wall, turned off the T.V in the bathroom & went out. She cleaned herself up & put on her royal blue night gown, it revealed her beautiful thighs.
She saw 7 missed calls in her phone from Sylvester; she also got 2 emails from the office. She called for her dinner and went to bed by 10:30pm after watching a movie.
After 2 weeks Oluchi decided to visit Lagos just to see other places in town. A new day begins again, Oluchi just finished taking her bath, and she was sitted in front of her bed side mirror with her towel wrapped over her b0s0m while she combed her hair, she had this long dark beautiful hair; from her childhood her mother has refused to cut her hair and she grew up having a very long hair growing down back but she cut the hair to her shoulder level before coming to Nigeria.



She dressed up in a white leggings and white blouse which held her body, she applied a red lips stick and was on a beautiful black sandals, she picked up one of her private car keys in her bedroom and went into the balcony, just then Red came up stairs
“Good morning, Ma”
“Good morning, Red” she replied smiling
“We are ready” he said
“ready for what” she asked, he was a little confused with the question
“for work”
“I’m not going to work today, I’ll need to take a look around town”
“Ok then I’ll inform the boys. We’re going with you”
“No way”
“its for your own good”
“Am not interested” she said, Red didn’t argue
“okay ma” he said and was leaving
“Wait” she called him back. He paused then turned
“I want you to come with me” she said, he was silent
“Ok?” he said slowly
“what’s that look on your face” she asked him
“Nothing”
“Ok let’s go” she said, but he was just staring
“is something wrong?” she asked
“No, nothing” he said
“Red? Talk to me”
“well, I cant look at you for too long”
“And why is that?”
“Am sorry but you beauty is a total distraction to me” he said, those words travelled deep into our mind. She was short of words and it looked awkward
“Ok, lets go” she managed to say as that was all she could say, she moved out and he followed
“Move the cars, she ain’t going to work” Red said loudly
She walked into the underground car park and saw so many cars, she couldn’t identify the car she wanted but she pressed a button on the car key and an Audi answered. The car was unique, it is known as the camouflage, it appeared in different colours at different weathers. When it rains it is Black, when its sunny it is Red, on an average weather its blue and at night its mirrored which makes it invisible. It’s worth over 10million dollars
“I’ll drive you” he said
“No you wouldn’t, go sit your butt0ckz on the driver’s seat” she said and walked to the driver’s seat
“Ok, madam” he said; Oluchi was getting tired of the “Madam” thing
They both left the house and went into Lagos mainland
“red, where do we go”
“madam I think…. Stop” Oluchi interrupted
“Stop calling me madam”
“Ma am sorry I cant”
“Really? We have been friends for some time now and would feel better if you called me Oluchi” she said
“it’s my duty to protect you, I cant”
“Come on, what has protection got to do with this, just call me Oluchi”
“Ok, I will” he said
“What is your name?”
“Red”
“Are you serious? I mean your real name”
“Danny”
“Danny or Daniel”
“No Danny”
“Ok Danny am Oluchi” she said smiling, he didn’t know what to say
“Well, I know that” he said
“You are suppose to say, Nice to meet you”
“Ok nice to meet you” he said and she smiled.



She drove and stopped at an eatery downtown
“let’s go in” she said
“No madam. Sorry Oluchi I don’t think we should”
“Don’t think, just do it” she said and came out of the car, he hesitated and then later followed her
The security man at the entrance froze at the site of Oluchi, am very sure in his life he has never seen anyone so beautiful, he forgot his duty; Red knew his state of mind and went forward to open the door for her
“Thank you” she said smiling
The restaurant was very large and lively, as they walked people stared at them and even after they did, they were still staring
“I’ll go get you something” he said and was about to leave
“Wait, they’ll come around” she said
“No, in here you go make your order yourself over there” he said pointing; she didn’t really like that. He went over to get something, just then a young man walked to Oluchi
“Excuse me” he said smiling
“yes?” she said pressing her phone without looking at him
“may I sit?” he said, she then raised her head to look at him. A young handsome man was standing right in front of her as handsome as Danny himself or slightly less
“Yes you may” she replied and he sat
“Am d!ckson” he stretched his hand
“Am Oluchi” she received it
‘I must comment, you are clearly the most human I have ever seen”
“Thank you”
“you look familiar” he said
“Well, you don’t”
“From your accent I guess you are not from here” he said
“Yes and No” she said
“Meaning?’ he asked
“I was born and brought up in America but my mum is a Nigerian” she said
“Interesting, and Dad?”
“from Mexico” she said
“So what brings you to Nigeria” he asked, she was worried what’s keeping Danny
“Am here for business”
“what kind of business” he asked; she was getting uncomfortable with questions
“My father’s business”
“What kind of business does father do?” he asked
“And why are you so concerned about her father’s Business” Danny said with two trays in his hands as he dropped it on the table
“This is for you” he said to her
“Thank you”
“O my God, am so sorry, I didn’t know you are here with your boyfriend” d!ckson said and Oluchi smiled
“Am her personal Guide” he said to d!ckson, Oluchi was not happy with that and she gave him that “Really?” look but he ignored it
“Actually, he’s my friend. Best” she specified
“Ok am sorry for the question but I need a Job” he said
“So is that why you are here?” she asked
“No No, that’s not why am here” he said
“then tell me why” she said
“I would fancy a friendship with you and get closer to you” he said
“well, d!ckson ain’t you close enough?” she asked. d!ckson laughed, just then her phone rang, it was Sylvester, she got angry but didn’t show it
“Danny let’s go” she said standing up
“Did I say anything wrong?” d!ckson looked surprised
“no, you didn’t, We just have to go”
“What about the food?” Danny asked
“Forget it” she said
“Forget it? The plates are disposable lets go with it” he said
“Alright then” she said
“can I have your number” d!ckson said
“I don’t give out my number like that”
“At least something to keep in touch” he said
“Ok, here is Card” she gave him a card, he collected while looking at her face. She and Danny left. d!ckson looked at the card and was surprised at how beautiful the card was and when he read it he was even more surprised that he had been talking to the Oluchi Marcus de Leonardo who is the daughter of Mr. Romero, the man he and his gang robbed and most of his men died and almost lost his life too, after been shot by Danny; he now remembered Danny’s face well enough but Danny didn’t know him because he was masked; he looked at the card again he wondered what they were doing around here with no Guards.
