The vibration of Kunle’s bb broke the silence in the car. He ignored it. As we turned into Allen avenue the vibration started again. He reluctantly reached for it, placing it on the steering in-front of him whilst attaching the head piece to it. ‘Hello’, he said in a quiet voice. I felt he wished voices could be mute whilst talking. I continued staring blankly ahead like I was in deep tho...

I’m not sure you want to hear all the sordid details of that afternoon …..but I’ll tell you. ..... I knew then that this was no ‘Happily ever after tale’. Kunle sweating was an understatement, he began fidgeting and straightening his clothes. Cynthia asked again with a very assertive voice,’Kunle. Who is this?’. ‘This is Tade’s friend and she was going my way so I decided...

Blame it on the sunshine… Ulumma was the new assistant. She was tall. Had a light ivory complexion. She was beautiful. She had her hair bonded in a pony tail. She wanted to meet the boss and had to look very formal. Obijaiku Douglas liked her the moment he set his eyes on her and he said nothing.
