Must Read: Despite All Odds - Season 1 - Episode 13

Within two hours, i finished all the home chores. I dressed up, carried my books and proceeded to Bro Tunde’s house. On my way, i saw Gbenga from a far distance along side a friend. As they were approaching FOWOROLA COMPLEX i tried to double up my pace but with the way i saw it, i realised i wont be able to catch up with them so i decided to call him.
“Hello Love” i greeted
“How far, how as been your day?” He asked
“not bad and yours?”
“fine thank you….are you in school?”
“No, i dont have lectures today….where are you now?”
“Am in shop, but my boss just sent me on an errand not quit long so am there”
“i think i saw you now, are you at FOWOROLA COMPLEX?”
“Exactly, that’s where i am”
I told him where i am, waved at him so he can see me which he did. He joined me.

Gbenga: where are you heading to?
Me: am going for tutorial
Gbenga: where
ME: the next street(pointing to the direction)
We walked towards the complex. When we got there he told his friend to take the goods to shop that he will join him soon. We settled down under a canopy of a provision seller and he ordered for two coke and two Scotch eggs which he gave me 1coke 1Scotch egg. I thanked him.
GBENGa: Its nothing….how is school?
ME: Hmm….school is fine jare…somehow stressful. Its not easy o, not easy at all. Those lecturers are not smiling at all, thank God sha we are moving gradually. We will start C.A soon.

GBENGA: That is how it use to be. 100L is usually stressful very soon you will get use to it.
ME: Abi o…so how is your side…yes, that remind me. That work you are doing, are you learning it or you get paid for it?
GBENGA: Learning ke, of course i get paid for it. Why do you ask
ME: Nothing
GBENGA: You look so cute today…. I will always love you till the end of my life.
ME: I LOVe you too ( i replied with a cool smile)

**He continued**

When I say I love you, please believe it’s true.

When I say forever, know I’ll never leave you.

When I say goodbye, promise me you won’t
cry, Because the day I’ll be saying that will be the
day I die.

** I kept on blushing**

ME: You look at me as if I’m the only girl around, You make me feel important and never let me down…I LOVE YOU.
L is for ‘laughter’ we had along the way.
O is for ‘optimism’ you gave me every day.
V is for ‘value’ of being my best friend.
E is for ‘eternity,’ a love that has no end.
Your love will always be in my heart till eternity.

** we kept on exchanging sweet sweet words for about 15minutes**

ME: Gbenga it is high time i took my leave
GBENGa: owk, call me when you get home.
We departed and i proceeded to Bro Tunde’s house. When i got to the place, the gate was widely open so i entered. The compound was very big with many flats that i had to be looking at the number placed at the entrance to each flat untill i found flat 8 where bro tunde prescribed for me.
I knocked and waited for a while but when no reply was forthcoming i knocked the second time
“Yes who is there, come in” i heard a voice.
As i opened the door, behold i saw 3 guys playing LUDO GAME at the sitting room with one wearing singlet and a short, They were staring at me in a strange manner.
