IRIS"How did you find the food?" Enyinnaya asked, the minute we left the restaurant of the hotel."It was really delicious. I enjoyed every serving. I especially liked the choice of wine you made, it must have been quite expensive seeing it's quality. What's the name again?""It's a nineteen ninty eight Dom perignon rose champagne with about twelve percent alcohol or thereabout. If I was drinking alone, I would have requested for a champagne with more alcohol percentage. Anyway, Seeing as you loved it that much, perhaps I should get you one when we are ready to leave.""That would be really appreciated." I replied. "So where next? " "You will see." He answered with a mischievous smile.I was slowly being eaten up by curiosity as we journeyed to our destination. As if the stars knew how curious I was, it didn't take long before we got there. To say I was amazed at the sight doesn't even begin to describe how I felt."It's

Chapter Eleven

NELLYI dialed Chike's number for the fourth time, and for that same number of times, he had my call screened. What was he thinking, bouncing my calls? I tried again for the fifth time and got the same negative response. Why would he break up with me the way he did. It didn't seem like a break up at the time, it was more like a warning, but for about three days now he had been bouncing my calls, giving me all the reasons to believe that it was over between us.It was high time I paid a visit to his house, I wasn't going to stand for a disrespectful break up. At least if he was going to break up with me he should be man enough to say it to my face, not this baby game he was playing. I didn't have anything to get done as Iris was on a weekend trip with her business partner, so I just dressed up and let myself out of my house. I helped myself into my car, it was a red Camry, the last gift I had gotten from Alexander few weeks before our break up. Alexander was the n

Chapter Twelve

MR NARRATOR"Wakey wakey, come on, wake up, Miss sleeping beauty" Enyinnaya called out to Iris, tapping her arm, as he tried to rouse her up from her sleep."Ohooo na! I'm awake already, stop disturbing me joor." Iris said, shaking off Enyinnaya's hand that was on her arm. "Would have loved that, but there is no time for that. So, young lady, get your lazy ass up and go get ready " Enyinnaya insisted."Where are you thinking of taking me to this time around? Iris asked, seeming reluctant to leave the bed and go out with Enyinnaya."Perhaps, you have forgotten, so let me remind you. Mami, today is Sunday and usually, on Sundays, Christians go to church to Worship their God. So, up you go, get up, you lazy ass." Enyinnaya answered light-heartedly.As if Enyinnaya's explanation was like a snake bite, Iris raised herself from the bed immediately, the shock and surprise on her face was priceless and Enyinnaya knew almost immediately, that h

Chapter Thirteen

CHIKE"How long have you been fucking Iris, your so called boss?" I asked, angry yet anxious as I waited for her response. It took a few seconds before she understood what I had asked her, and her first response didn't serve me any purpose."What do you mean by that, Chike?" "Heck! I spoke English Nelly, not some strange Language!""Chikeeeee!!!" She screamed, threw her bag on the floor and ran head first to where I stood, holding me by my collar she continued " what is wrong with you? Are you sworn to make me hate you forever or what? What is this insane question about?"I shook off her both hands that were on my collar, drew her up by her slender shoulders, such that her eyes were at the same level as mine, then I continued our conversation, more like altercation."Let me rephrase my question. Nelly Okafor, for how long have you been having an affair with the lady you call your boss?" As if possessed by some strange spir

Chapter Fourteen

IRIS"Welcome back. So what next?" I asked Enyinnaya, the minute he returned from his business meeting that Sunday evening."We pack our properties in preparation for tomorrow's journey." He said, while expertly undressing himself. It was an innocent activity, but it's effects on me was not so innocent."And?" I asked again."It's obvious you are dressed for bed, so I just have to take my bath and then we sleep. Or you can just go ahead and sleep without me.""Really? Is that all the activity you have planned for the night, Mr Amadi Enyinnaya?" I questioned, as I got up from the bed. At this time, he was only dressed in his singlet and briefs. He looked so daringly sexy, the kind of sexiness reserved for immortals."What else would there be?" He questioned, seemingly oblivious to my intentions. It made my stomach flutter, and I briefly wondered. How can someone so schooled in the art of seduction, not know when he was being seduced? I laughed.

Chapter sixteen

IRIS"Dance with me." Enyinnaya commands, stretching out his arm to take mine. I raised my head just so I could get a good look at his face. His intense dark eyes seem calm and their calm darkness provides me with a kind of calm only the dark provides. Now he's turning me into a poet. I thought and almost smiled but stopped myself. Someone could write a whole book of poetry about Enyinnaya's look, he was that good looking, and he was standing before me, ready to be my man, for just this night, though, I'm hoping a night would be enough to quench my wanton desires for him.Lucky you, Iris, lucky you.He looks at me for a while before going to the fridge. He pulls out a bottle of champagne and two wine glasses, before filling the glasses with the champagne. He offers me a glass and I take it, we make a toast, before sipping from the wine."Mr Amadi, are you trying to turn me into a champagne person?" I asked jokingly.

Chapter fifteen

NELLYAren't Sunday supposed to be as bright as the sun? Isn't it's night expected to be filled with beautiful stars? Then tell me, why am I sitting alone on the couch in my living room, surrounded by empty bottles of cheap beer. Tell me, why does my heart feel like it has been stabbed a million times and my eyes too heavy for me to open?Getting over Alexander was very difficult. I had cried each time I remembered him, and trust me, I always did, so you can imagine how often I cried. I had even starved myself on some days and my job was a mess. It took only a kind hearted boss like Iris for me not to get fired from work.Truth be told, I never did get over him at all, until Chike came and got a place in my life. His presence in my life had somehow helped me to go through the healing process successfully and now this. I didn't know how I was going to get over Chike, off course getting another man was completely off the table, as that for me was a bigger problem

Chapter Seventeen

NELLY "Here we are." Chiamaka says as soon as we reach inside the building of cubana club house. "Gurl" she continues " just because I'm acting like I'm cool with us going in like this doesn't mean I really am, hope you know that?'" How was I supposed to respond, when I had no idea what she was on about. "Chi, what is this about?" I ask."You really don't know? I'm talking about your mood. You've not said anything since you got in my car, and that is very much unlike you, so, I'm really worried."" Oh that. Abeg, I already told you that I am fine, and I really am. There is actually nothing wrong with me. So you have nothing to worry about." I finished, hoping she would give up on trying to get words out of my mouth. But, obstinate Chiamaka wouldn't just give up."No, that wasn't what you told me. You didn't deny having problems, you just said that you weren't ready to discuss it with me yet. So, madam, are you ready to talk

Chapter Eighteen

NELLY"Nelly meet my boss, Mr Alexander Echi."I freeze instantly as I hear that name. There was only one Alexander Echi I knew and that was my ex best friend and ex boyfriend as well. Or could there be another? I question in my mind.I raise my head to see who the Alexander Echi being introduced to me is, and the face that greets me is the same face I thought I would never have to see again. It was the face that tormented me for months before Chike came to my rescue; my ex boyfriend, Alexander Echi."Mr Echi, meet Nelly Okafor my friend, and companion for the night." Chiamaka continues with her introduction, oblivious to what was transpiring between me and Alex.Behave yourself Nelly Okafor. Don't act like he still affects you. I say this to myself before stretching out my arm to shake his already out stretched one."It's a pleasure to meet you, Miss Okafor" Alexander says, trying to conceal the fact that we know each other, but I didn't wa

Chapter Nineteen

IRISMonday morning had me and Enyinnaya preparing to return back to Nigeria. The night before it had been quite sensational and even more rigorously so, with me, having to constantly remind my heart that it's not supposed to catch feelings, or feel something for Enyinnaya and, also having to remind my body that it must not get used to his touch.Enyinnaya, who didn't seem to have even the smallest idea about my emotional battle, made my war even more difficult with his good loving. I knew he was good in bed since he was the best lay I ever had however, time seemed to have added to his skill making him even better than before. While we loved up, I noticed he paid attention to my body like it was some course of study he needed to write an exam on. He knew where to touch to exert response from me, he made love to me like he knew my body too well, even more than I did. If I wasn't so busy dreaming about the night before while folding my clothes,
