Ambrose POV

"Hanna"

I shook her left leg, I just woke up after a long night rest.

"Uhmmm" She groaned from sleep coiling and folding like a new born.

"It's morning, wake up" I said, shaking her legs again.

"I am not ready to wake up please, let me sleep now"

She wrapped the bedsheet round her waist while murmuring some words I couldn't comprehend.

"Am sure the meeting have been postponed" I said aloud.

She told me about the meeting she would be having this morning, I wonder why she feels so peaceful sleeping till late in the morning. She ought to be out of bed as early as 6am.

"What meeting?" She asked from sleep. "Oh my God!" She suddenly jump out of bed, seems she had suddenly remember her appointment. I watch her speed out of bed and head for the bathroom.

"Bring my dress" Her voice echoed from the bathroom, I could clearly hear the heavy splash of water from the shower.

"Okay" I responded. I searched the bag she brought last night and took the only gown in it to her.

In few minutes she was out all dressed and ready for work. She picked up her bag in a hurry and headed for the door.

"Your car key" I called out.

"Bring it to the house, I will use a motorcycle" She yelled slamming the door behind her.

"Ohhh, no!"

I don't want to go to her house, the way her Mom questions me was getting too much. Though, Hanna was actually worse than her Mom.

"Rhmmmmmn" My Tommy was telling me something, I was damn hungry.

"What do we eat now?" I asked holding my tummy.

My kitchen was empty, I don't know how to cook and she doesn't too. I did the few cleaning I could do in the house then I rush out for breakfast at a close by restaurant.

My phone beeped while I was having breakfast at the restaurant. It was a close friend calling, he's a Yoruba by tribe and bears the name Adefikayo Thomas. Close friends call him Fiks for short.

"Hey Ambrose" Fiks called out from his end.

"Am good" I responded grinding the grains in my mouth.

"I saw your girl on a bike few minutes ago, what happened?"

I smiled, my girlfriend was from a wealthy family, Her Dad was a millionaire and very famous. She answers the name Ima Hanna. Hanna was a spoilt brat, Her father owns fleet of cars, you would easily argue that she has never boarded a public bus in her entire life.

"You know her now, she over slept and she was suppose to go for a business meeting at 7am so she used a bike for faster transportation"

"Ohhhh, how about you two?" He asked probably chuckling underneath. He's always interested in discussing my relationship issues.

"I dont know yet, she doesn't look like she would make a good wife" I said whuffling.

"Common, you can't be too sure, she's intelligent"

"Rude, lousy, bossy and a little spice of waywardness included" I quickly added, he think he knows my girlfriend more than myself? He's all wrong.

"Seriously? Anyways, you know better. I can't wait to dance at your wedding you know"

"Have you gotten yourself a woman yet?" I asked intentionally, most times I just pop this question when I want us to end a discussion that doesn't favour me. I know he hate the question with passion, he's not a marriage fan and he's not thinking of marriage anytime soon.

"Ok bro, we would talk later" He quickly ended the call on me.

"Idiot!" I said giggling.

*

Later in the afternoon, I rush down to Hanna's place, I prayed silently to meet the absence of her mother, that woman ehn, she's a virago.

Immediately I step into the sitting room, I sighted Hanna sitting on a single sitter couch, she fixed her gaze on the TV as she enjoy the music videos on Hip TV.

"You are back" I said as I walk towards her couch.

"Hi" She greeted unusually.

I looked at her, Her "Hi" took me by surprise. She would never greet me in such manner, infact she just attack me with whatever discussion she chose to talk about rather than saying an hi to me.

"Han, are you okay? You look dull, you lost your contract or what?" I frowned seeing how gentle she suddenly became, she sat there smiling at me, I fell into the opposite couch and look at her deeply, she's way too beautiful this afternoon.

"Alcohol or natural fruit?"

My eyes bulged at her question. I chuckled. She's offering me a drink for real? I can't remember the last time she served me a cup of water.

"Hanna, you want to offer me a drink? Waw, my baby is changed, Natural fruit drink please"

I watch with excitement as she dashed out of the room to get me a glass of juice.

She return with a chilled cartoon orange juice and a glass cup all placed on a Stainless tray.

"You changed your hair style?" I observed, I haven't been able to take my eyes off her, she's smashing beautiful this afternoon. I can't explain this sudden change though.

"You look good" She complimented with a big smile and I noticed deep dimples, God, she had dimples all the while? I never noticed.

"Where did the dimples come from over night?" I asked serving myself a glass of orange juice from it cartoon.

She giggled reflecting a white set of teeth.

"I must say, you look really beautiful this afternoon, how come I never noticed the dimples?" I complimented while trying to get the fact behind the dimples. I noticed a lot though, Her nose ring is absent too, maybe she encountered the Holy Spirit after leaving my home few hours ago.

The door clank, I turned my head towards it.

"What?" I sprang out of my seat, I was confused now, Standing before me were two identical women, Who's who?

"Hanna, are you a ghost?" I stared at both of them almost at the same time. I could say the person at the door was Hanna because she had the dress she wore from my home on her, the same hairstyle and her nose ring was also present.

They bursted out laughing at once, I felt really embarrassed.

"We are twins, I am Haira. Nice meeting you" The lady I have talking to all along introduce herself.

"Oh my God, She never told me" I exclaimed at their resemblance, I opened my arms and hugged my girlfriend's twin sister.

Hanna POV

Seeing them hug, I imagined something ugly. I quickly drag Haira away from my boyfriend and took her towards the door. I don't know why she showed up all of a sudden, I thought she would remain in the state for the rest of her life. The last time I saw her was about seventeen years ago, right now she looks so beautiful, she would beat me to it in a pageantry.

"Hope you aren't planning anything stupid uhhhhh?" I frowned, we have had issues like this in the past over her boyfriend and myself.

"We only hugged" She protested.

"You aren't allowed to have any type of relationship with your sister's fiancee" I warned strictly giving her a "I would kill you" look.

"Ok. I know what you think, I wouldn't pay you back" She grinned devilishly. I don't trust her, I once dated her boyfriend and she might be thinking of paying me back now.

"Intelligent idiot, I will send you back to the states if you try mess here" I warned. I love Ambrose and I would break her neck if she dare crush on him.

"You talk like you have the power to send me back for real, you aren't in control" She fired at me.

I pushed my head backward, she now has the gut to talk to me anyhow? Before she left for the state, she wouldn't dare look in my eyes.

"Why did you return home now? You would cause havoc. You look like me and I hate it!" I said hoping that she would just pack her things and leave.

"I don't look like you, I am prettier. You stole part of my beauty and I wasn't stingy with it, I am back home for good. Go to hell if it stings" She said sticking her tongue out. I felt stung.

She left me and my boyfriend to ourselves, she gave Ambrose something to stare at by shaking her shitty ass as she walk off.

I watch her walk away, I vibrated where I stood. God knows, I hate competitions. That girl beauty was causing me heartache. We might look alike but she was prettier, oh the dimples, Her curvy shape, Her sweet voice, she can get any man at the snap of her fingers.

"Why are you still standing at the door?" Ambrose asked, He poured himself another glass of drink and gulped.

I hissed at him as I walk towards him.

"Join me in the room" I yelled at him, throwing my bag at his face.

"Yes ma" He responded getting out of the couch to stretch.

Ambrose POV

I followed closely like a loyal dog, I have been doing this for a year now. I thought I was thanking God for changing her few minutes ago, so it wasn't really her, the other lady was actually her sister. How I wish Hanna would just wake up one morning and change completely, she's just driving me crazy with her poor character. She attacks me with "I am just me, I can't change me" I try to correct her misconducts.

"You didn't tell me you have a twin sister" I said immediately we step into the room.

"First, you woke me late, now you won't ask me how my day went?" She yelled sitting at thehe edge of the bed, She bent over and got her heels off.

"Ok, sorry! How was your day darling?" I quickly ask before she get upset and start breaking things as usual.

"Fourty minutes late and a load of embarrassment" She complained, giving a big frown.

"Embarrassment?" I asked.

She ignored my question, I inhaled, maybe she's still upset with me.

"A bitch got the deal before me" She shouted, I could sense anger in her tone.

"Sorry" I drop on the family sized bed as I stared at the ceiling above my head.

"Is that all you have to say?" She gave me a big frown, I coughed slightly, what else am I suppose to say?

When she didn't get a response, she went straight to the bathroom for a quick shower.

"I can only console you, someone better got it" I shouted on top of my voice so that she can hear me clearly since their was a heavy pour from the bathroom shower.

"I was born the best, no one can be too good except me" She defended poking her head out through the bathroom wooden door.

"I said better, haven't you heard of better than the best? That's exactly the kind of person that got the contract"

"Fraud, how I wish I knew who it was, I am sure it's some sort of low life. Now Dad would think I am useless"

"Ain't you?" I have finish saying this before i started to giggle. I hope she didn't hear me say that.

"What?" She ran out of the bathroom with a towel around her waist, water drizzling down her body.

"I mean you aren't, you did your best" I said bursting out laughing almost at once. She heard what I said already, changing it would have no effect on what I really think and said.

"Fool" She swung her left leg bathroom slippers at me.

I dodged it and kept laughing even though I knew it was upsetting her.

"I am hungry" She complained.

I look in her direction, she wiped herself in front of the dressing mirror, I waited for her to get the towel off her body but she didn't. She went back to the bathroom and came out all dressed.

"Let me join you in the kitchen" I said in a low tone, I know she couldn't cook, I was just looking for her trouble.

"Ambrose, you know I can't cook" She hissed, probably peeved.

"When will you learn? Please be ashamed to say this" I yell at her sitting upright. She would tell anyone that cares to listen that she can't cook and would never learn how to. She think cooking is just a skill anyone can acquire but definitely not her.

"Cooking ability doesn't define me, I am still a woman right?" She asked. She came to stand in front of me.

"Yeah, empty woman" I said hissing as I stood on my feet, not upset anyways, I am use to her irresponsible way of life.

"You said?" She asked, scrunched brows, hands akimbo.

"I said, pretty woman" I said what she wanted to hear, I don't want another episode of trouble this afternoon.

"Good, let's get something to eat" She smiled pulling my left cheek.

She walk in front of me and I followed as we went downstairs to get food in a nearby restaurant.

"I know you will make me proud" I heard Hanna's father voice echoed, I climb down the stairs holding Hanna, I know for sure my mother in law to be was at home since Hanna's father was around.

"Oh God, you didn't tell me your Dad is home" I whispered into Hanna's ears. She gave me a harsh look in response.

"Don't you want to see him?" She asked staring in my eyes.

"Not that.......... uhmmm" I swallowed whatever I had to say, I know how much she loves her Mom, She would strangle me right there if I told her I was trying to avoid her Mom.

The family had settled down to lunch, Bobby the only son and last child of the family was busy rolling his garri into balls. He's one playful guy that likes me a lot, he's twenty-one and in his first year in school, we all look forward to having a lawyer in our midst once he graduates.

As we both approach the family, Chief Ima noticed me, he greeted me from afar with genuine smiles.

"It been a while" He said. I slid my hand off Hanna's and hurriedly walk up to the dinning room so I could prostrate in front of him.

"Been busy sir" I sincerely said going flat on my chest.

"And when are you marrying our daughter? she's not a ball that you can play around, I am sure you know this" Hanna's Mom quickly attacked, She's the reason I hate coming around the house, She keep asking me when I would marry Hanna as if marriage was something that can be rushed into. Have she asked her daughter if she's ready for marriage? If she don't know, Hanna is the reason we aren't married, I am busy trying to mold her into a responsible woman before taking her home to my Parents.

"Mom, let them breath, he's going to do the needful when the time is right" Haira tried to caution.

Hanna rolled her eyes, She fired at her twin sister without hesitation. I have known Hanna for a while now, she's very nasty.

"Will you shut up? was she talking to you? Where's your man? No boyfriend, nothing!" Hanna attacked. I sigh. Like mother, like daughter.

"That was harsh Hanna" Their father cautioned, the money making man himself, Chief Ima.

Hanna and the remaining kids don't have to work if they don't want to, Chief Ima made a lot of money already.

"I am sorry Daddy" She apologized twisting her lips. Her father was the only person she listens to once in a while. The rest of us just talk and brag, she don't care, she would do that which she intend doing.

"Apologize to your twin sister instead" Chief Ima ordered. I saw my girlfriend's face, she's boiling.

"What?!" She shouted folding her arms under her breast. Hanna would never say sorry, She believe She's always right.

"You heard him" Bobby said sticking out his tongue mockingly.

I don't know what it's between her and Bobby but Bobby never likes her.

"Sorry" She apologized shabbily.

"It's fine" Haira replied smiling and flaunting her very deep dimples.

JILTED 02

Hanna POV

"I lost the contract, I am sorry Dad"

I stood behind her Dad's chair, massaging his shoulder as I broke the news.

"Ambrose, join us" Haira invited pulling a chair next to her.

"Thank you" Ambrose glowed in smiles, he walk up to the chair and made himself comfortable. Haira served him from the large food warmer on the dinning table.

"Hanna, the company didn't loss anything, haira secured our ground" Dad announced smiling, he seems so excited.

"I dont understand" I frowned withdrawing my hands from his shoulder, I came to stand next to him, hands akimbo.

"Haira was there before you, she got it" He explained further flashing smiles of satisfaction.

I looked at Haira with a scorn, she sat there smiling. I have been doing my things good and well all this while. Dad had few or no reasons to complain abkut me. When she suddenly arrive Nigeria, I knew for sure that things would become abnormal, she has always been against me, she hates my progress.

"But Dad, you didn't tell me she was going to apply too" I protested, I felt cheated and used.

"Both of you are my eldest children, I would have to retire soon and a CEO must emerge. So, that was a test and I know who's capable now" He grinned showing me soup stained teeth.

"No Daddy" I folded my arms under my breast, he can't be serious.

"What kind of nonesense is that? Haira was aware that her twin sister was chasing that same contract hence, she put in extra effort" my Mom defended. I nodded in agreement, my Mom was the only true friend I had in the family.

"But from the look of things Haira is good, Hanna arrived the place fourty minutes late" Dad argued.

Dammit, I have arrived meetings an hour late and I still manage to play my cards well, this twin sister of mine is here to ruin things for me.

"We aren't taking that, that test is void" My mom insisted.

"Yes" I concured

"Uhmmm, Ok. You two should put in your best, I will choose when the time comes" Dad finally gave in to I and my Mom's wish.

I inhaled, this is still good for now.

"Better" I murmured.

I took my seat and began to dig into my plate of "eba"

"This meal, ma you are a good cook" I saw Ambrose stylishly licking his fingers, he commented on the meal which I knew was made by Haira. That witch is getting another compliment from my boyfriend again?

"Haira made it" My dad said nodding to the ball he just swallowed.

I await the next topic, they would soon remember I can't cook at all.

"Ohhh, you learnt well from your Mom" Ambrose turned to Haira, he flashed a smile at her.

Haira sat up smiling, the idiot must be enjoying the attention she's getting.

"My mom? Not really, I left home since I was sixteen, I taught myself. I love trying out dishes" She said pouring out a glass of water for herself.

"This is great, why not teach Hanna too? She can't boil water successfully"

I lifted my head up when Ambrose made his last speech, I feel embarrassed. Even if he had to say that, it shouldn't have been in her presence.

"Hold it right there, what are you insinuating?" I paused with my hand above the plate of soup, he saw the fire in my eyes and he quickly apologize.

"Sorry" He said even though he still chuckled alongside.

Ambrose POV

I like her already, she sounds gentle and intelligent, she didn't wear heavy make up like Hanna, she's just simple.

"You schooled here?" I inquired turning to face her slightly. This thing I was doing, Hanna might skin me alive at the end of the day.

"USA" She responded washing her hand in a round washing basin on the dinning table. She was quick to finish up the little food she served herself.

I nodded at her response, I face my food again and swallow three balls simultaneously.

"I love food" I said shamelessly.

"It's normal, I learnt from my Dad that the way to a man's heart is food" She responded looking in Chief Ima's direction.

"Hope you aren't referring to Ambrose's heart?" Hanna squeezed her face, she bite her lower lip as she gave Haira a deadly frown.

"She said she learnt from me, be polite at least for once!" Chief Ima corrected, I was really enjoying the conversation, Her twin sister was cool and seems to be an antidote for boredom.

"Hobbies?" I went further.

"Music, tourism, cooking" She responded. She face me entirely since she was done with lunch.

"The chef " I hailed, she laughed for a while then ask me not to flatter her.

"Ambrose" Hanna shouted my name.

I laugh in my head, I was giving her twin sister a lot of attention and she's upset already.

"Hanna" I called her at her. I love the provocating look on her face, I wish she would learn how to cook something as good as this too.

A phone beeped, it was Haira's.

"Don't cry to me now, I warned you" Haira yelled at the caller. I pause eating, transfering all my attention to her.

"Get a job, get a life" She fired again.

We didn't know what the caller was discussing with her because the phone wasn't on speaker. But whatever it's they were discussing, you can be sure it's a serious issue.

"No, I ain't getting no damn lawyer, enjoy your meal, your stupidity" She hissed out loud.

Her loud voice and body representation got everyone's attention aside Hanna, Hanna just face her bowl of Eba and Ogbono, she ate like she was deaf.

"You are still not wise? Stand for yourself, think with your head, make your money then this whole shit will be over, Good day" She hissed, she ended the call and carelessly dropped her phone on the table.

"Anything serious?" I asked immediately the call ended.

"It's mild" She responded flashing me a heart felt smile.

"Baby, talk to Dadddy" Chief Ima insisted, I think it's something she might want to talk about.

"A friend, victim of domestic violence" She said, cloud of tears formed in her eyes.

I inhaled, do people really beat their wives? Like they comfortably hit a woman? I would rather leave the house rather than hit my wife. Hanna has done worst things that warrant beating yet I have never attempted to give her the smallest pinch.

"Mtcheew, If any man beats me, I will drug him, tie him up and beat him constantly for at least a week" Hanna spat, she was looking directly at me as if I had beaten her at some point in our relationship.

"Ehn? " I said with scrunched brows.

If Hanna ever finds herself in such a messy situation, she could actually deal with the man the exact way she had describe.

"I am sure not going to end up with a woman beater, I love family, I want one soonest and that's why I am not rushing into any relationship not after.................." Haira stopped talking, Her eyes and that of Hanna's met. They maintained stares for few seconds, Haira chuckled and continued her speech.

"Yeah.... so I want to work for my money so I can fend for myself and the kids just incase I am still unlucky with men"

"Please work hard, you aren't likely to have a good man with this your witchy witchy character" Hanna hissed sneering at Haira.

"Hanna" Chief Ima banged the table really hard.

The I have been battling with fell off my grip and back into the soup plate giving rise to a large quantity of ogbono soup that splashed all over my facd.

"Oh my God" Haira screamed.

I was sitting next to her, she could reach me before anyone else, she rolled out a good amount of white tissue paper and began to dab it against my oily face.

I shut my eyes tight, who dares to leave their eyes open when their face was soaked in peppery draw soup?

"Bobby, get water in a bowl" Haira screamed, her voice cracking.

Everyone ran Helter skelter trying to get me out of his uncomfortable situation. I was embarrassed, why does this have to happen in my in law home?

It has been decades since I last ate home made meal. I think my mess up face is actually a welcome back ceremony. Hands ran across my face, wiping, scrubbing and cleaning. It was as if my face was now a dirty wall being scrubbed and cleaned. Even though I couldn't see her, I could clearly hear her voice giving orders at interval; Hanna.

My girlfriend must be really disturb, she kept yelling at her Dad, blaming him for what had happened. Her Mom would always take her side so she was never alone. At the end of it, my covetousness has finally landed my face in hot ogbono.

"Try and open the eyes" Haira said patting my back.

I guess she was standing in front of me, Her voice sounds clear and near.

I shook my head, I wasn't trying that. I could feel pepper in my nose and brain. I puff in air and breathed it out at interval, the last thing I want to do right now is slid my eyes open.

"Bobby, warm water and a clean towel please" Haira shouted again.

Oh lord, if I knew, I wouldn't have ate the food o.

"Baby, can't you try and open it?" Hanna said, I could tell where she was speaking from, she was right behind me and her hands pressed my shoulders softly.

I felt hot, I located my shirt's buttons, I unbutton them and I quickly stripped the shirt off.

"Ouchhh" I yelled in discomfort.

"If I had told you not to eat that the chef was a witch, would you have listened?" Hanna whispered in my left ear.

She giggled and I almost cried.

This girlfriend of mine is a big time bitch.

"Go, go, just go" I screamed at hanna, I heard her loud laughter, probably mocking me.

JILTED 03

Ambrose POV

I didn't stop there.

After I became a bit relieved, I ate more. I wasn't going to read Hanna's facial expression, I knew she was upset with me but I couldn't help it, I miss home made delicacies.

"What were you thinking? You applied behind my back?" Hanna who was always ready for war attacked.

She brought the case up again because Chief Ima had left the dinning room long ago. It's just I, the twins, their Mom and Bobby.

"Dont start please" Haira raised her left palm at Hanna.

"You make me look like a trouble maker, Haira you arrived just two weeks ago and you are causing troubles already" Hanna shouted spitting venom.

"Dad insisted, I was avoiding you" Haira defended.

"Are you interested in becoming the CEO?" This was Hanna's question, she asked her twin with a serious and bold look.

"That's enough, Ambrose when are you marrying her?" Mrs Ima asked pushing aside her almost empty plates.

There we go again, this woman keeps asking when I would marry Hanna.

"Soon ma" I responded washing my hands in the bowl in front of me, I guess I have had enough.

"I am tired of soon, when?" She fired showing impatience.

This woman never like me, I don't know why she hate me this much, whenever I came to the house, she either ask when I would marry Hanna or accuse me of being a player.

"We haven't decided" I forced a smile.

"We? Or you?" Hanna asked frowning, she was sitting on the opposite side of the table.

"We are yet to decide, we, I and you" I whispered giving her eye signals.

Look at her, making it look like it was me delaying our marriage.

"I dont think it's really right asking him when he's coming for her, let him decide" Haira came to my rescue for the second time.

I exhaled. Sometimes I feel like Mrs Ima want to tie her daughter to my neck.

"With the way your witchcraft is going, you would spend a larger part of your life in this house" Hanna attacked her sisters again.

I saw that Haira was helpless, she was just fighting my cause. If I continue to sit down here, this twins might end up beating theirselve up.

I coughed slightly getting the attention of all of them, I quickly excuse myself, I was tired of all this talks.

"I will like to leave now ma" I stood on my feet, I turn to shake Haira for a lunch well made.

Without another word, I found my way out of the building and pick a cab to Jerry's house.

Since it was a free day for me, I would love to spend it looking for troubles.

--Jerry's house--

"Why are you here?" Jerry attacked immediately she flung the door open and saw that it was me.

"Can I come in?" I asked grinning widely.

"No"

"You or Hanna, who's worse?" I asked standing hands akimbo.

"What?"

She stood in the space holding both sides of her waist.

"I understand birds of the same feathers flock together sha" I mocked hoping that she doesn't hit me with a rod.

"If you would insult me because I haven't granted you access to my sitting room, leave!" She fired, more like a order. I frowned trying to hold back my laughter, I just annoyed her and I love it.

"Jeremi, I think you should check yourself, your character in particular, I mean it's rotten and stinks" I sincerely advice.

"Do you know who you are talking to?" She yelled, I could obviously see fire in her eyes.

"Hanna's bestie, so what?"

"Ambrose or what's that your name? She's the one dying for you not me, Whatever it's between you both sort it and let me breath"

She slam the door at my face, I shrugged, I was expecting worst things though.

"Stay away from my girl, virus" I yelled behind the door.

I walked back into the street, actually I was on a two days leave and a night before, Hanna and I had gone clubbing before she finally put up at my place. So, I have nothing doing for the next twenty four hours, I just wanted trouble, Hanna's friends were the targets.

----Sonia's house----

"You are better" I admitted as I wash my chest down with the cold orange juice she offered me.

Seems like today is meant for cruise and food.

"As in?" Sonia asked frowning, she must be confused.

"Jerry didn't even allow me in"

"You went to see her too?" She inquired.

"Yes"

"So why are you here?"

"To see if I can help with some bleach" I said as I gulp down the chilled wine she offered.

"Bleach?" She leaned forward in the chair she sat crossing her legs.

"You girls have dirty minds and bad attitudes, I would gladly donate bleach" I chuckled on my wine.

She murmured few words, I was sure she was muttering curses.

"Are you okay?" She sprang out of her chair.

"Can you cook?" I asked wiping my mouth with a handkerchief.

"Is this one alright at all? Because I allowed you in abi?"

"Bake me some cakes" I demanded, I know she can't cook, Hanna and her friends can't cook and would never learn.

"I dont have flour"

"Or you dont know how to bake?" I rubbed the back of my neck trying hard to hide the laughter that was pushing it way out of my mouth.

"Out!" She pulled me out of the chair, both of her hands behind my back, she pushed me out of the room.

"2/3" I counted, one more friend to visit and provoke.

I picked up an empty water can and kicked it towards an aluminum gate.

"Na who be that?" I heard a strong voice echoed from inside the compound.

-----Mosa's house-----

"Did you cook this?" I searched through the bowl of noodles with an iron folk.

"Of course" She seems excited, feeling on top of the world.

Can somebody tell her that this noodles is swimming in a pool of water?

"You cooked water and sprinkled indomie inside?" I asked jestingly.

"Whatever!" She responded eyeing me.

"Why do you have to cut eggs over it?" I had another thing to complain about, I was never going to be satisfied with any thing her friends did.

"It's called garnishing" She said. She must have thought I have never heard about the word garnishing in my whole life.

"Carry it, amadioha isn't hungry"

"How's she even coping with you?" She asked, pulling the plate of noodles towards herself.

"How is she expected to? you have influenced her negatively" I almost spat at her face.

"I don't understand, what's that?" She asked, brows scrunched.

"What do you do for a living?" I asked glaring straight at her.

"Modelling and marketing"

"Or prostitution?"

I couldn't hold back the chuckle, prostitution is exactly what she does but she hate it when it's been rubbed on her face.

"Are you mad? You think you can talk anyhow because you are Hanna's boyfriend?" She finally lost her patience.

"Hey, take it easy huh" I tried calming her.

"Out!" She fired walking up to the entrance door. She held the door and waited for me to push myself out.

I respectfully and majestically walk up to the door, left her house before she throws me out herself.

Not again, I was back on the street now. I wish I could do this every other day. The type of friends Hanna keep makes me feel uncomfortable. They are just too wayward and I am bent on separating them before I marry her.

Hanna POV

Mosa had called barely five minutes ago to report Ambrose. Now, it was Jerry calling.

"Look, warn him, If he comes close to our den ehn" Jerry roared, I can feel the fire in her voice.

"Easy baby, I will talk to him, ugh am sorry" I pleaded on his behalf. This Ambrose of a guy, he think he can talk jagoons to my friends always.

"Do you really love him?" She asked in the lowest tone ever.

"I think I do" I rolled my eyes, isn't it love when you feel uncomfortable not talking to someone everyday? If it's love, then I am in love with Ambrose.

"What about we? Us?" She asked reminding me of my dirty secret, a secret I wouldn't want my boyfriend to know of.

"I am done with that life, be happy for me please" I pleaded hoping that she would let me go.

"Han, it been me and you all through" She said in a bitter tone. I have no choice though, I am done with lesbianism.

"You opted out too" I reminded. Sometimes ago, we stopped practicing lesbianism because we both decided to settle down with our boyfriends.

"For who? George? He's as good as nothing, Stupid fellow" She complained hissing.

I could not help it, I laughed hysterically, ladies aren't so lucky with men, I am just blessed to have Ambrose.

"Jerry, give men a try, I am happy with Ambrose seriously" I said holding my chest, I am sincerely happy in my relationship.

"I will think about it, Abel was here with those stuffs, come for yours" She said.

I exhaled, hard drugs? Not again. I had promise myself to stop whuffling drugs and I wasn't ready to break that promise.

"Ohhh babe, I am out of that life. No drugs, no lesbianism or prostitution. I just want the ring"

"You are now a changed person" She commented the obvious.

"Haira is back, I need to sit up for now, you know Dad likes her a lot, I don't want to lose the CEO to her" I poured out my heart, Haira is way intelligent, I have to do double of everything and anything she does so that I can get myself the CEO post.

"Oh my God, now I understand. How are you dealing with competition?" She asked knowing the enemity between I and my sister.

"Dont know yet, Dad want her to be CEO" I hissed at the thought of me managing smaller position while she stays at the top giving orders.

"After all you did for the company?" She asked surprised.

"Can you imagine? I actually wanted a crazy life but hey, Dad pushed me into business and now he think she's better"

"Fight for it, I trust you" She encouraged and I nodded.

"Yes, I will" I assured her.

We had few more discussions and the call ended.

I have to fight for it seriously, CEO was my right and I would not give it out to some cheap British girl.
