At that moment, Abena knew that they were going to be okay.
…
When they got home, Abena went straight to bed, and Tobi went to the kitchen to get dinner ready.
He was already blending the tomatoes and peppers for the sauce, when his phone rang.
He grimaced at the caller ID, but answered the call anyway.
“Yes?”
“Tobi darling! Its been so long since we’ve spoken. Have you been that busy?” He heard Eniola’s voice from the phone.
Why didn’t this woman just take a hint? Every other woman left him after a night, two at most.
“How do you have my personal cell number?”
“Is that what you’re going to say? You didn’t even miss me?” She whined.
“I’m too busy for this.” He said.
“Tobi.” She started firmly, and Tobi could smell a threat coming. “We’re meant for each other. And there’s no way you’re leaving me, especially not for that pregnant girl I saw at your house. You’ll come back begging, I lo-”
Tobi hung up and blocked her number. Then he placed his phone back into his back pocket and put on the blender.
…
“So. Is my Jollof rice as amazing as yours?” Tobi asked, looking at Abena eagerly. She had insisted on coming downstairs to eat, when he wanted to bring her food up to her room.
“Ehn. You could have done better.” She shrugged and he frowned.
“I spent hours in the kitchen trying to make it perfect.” He groaned and she laughed.
“Chill jare. Its good. Not as good as mine but you tried sha.” She teased.
“Hm. Well let me show you something I’m really good with.” He smirked and leaned him towards her.
She just rolled her eyes and placed a finger on his lips.
“Control yourself man. Besides, I’m still here struggling to eat your food.” “Wow. Just wow. You just broke my heart.” He said feigning hurt.
“Hm. Oya come let me fix it for you.” She smiled, placing her plate of food on the
table and pulling him towards her.
Then his phone rang.
“What?” Tobi growled and Abena laughed. He put the phone on speaker, and Joseph’s voice filled the air.
“Why do I have a feeling that I interrupted something very s£xual?” “What do you want?” Tobi asked.
“This is so unfair. You used to have my time, and you guys get together this morning and all of a sudden, I’m no longer important?”
Abena laughed and rolled her eyes.
“Joseph? Have you told them yet?” They heard Dera ask.
“Oh. Right. You guys should turn on the t.v.” Jospeh said.
“Why?” Tobi asked annoyed.
“Its already on.” Abena added.
“No like, the news channel.” Joseph added.
“Oh.” They both replied simultaneously.
Abena took the remote and changed the channel.
Then they both stared at the main topic of the entertainment news. BILLIONAIRE TOBI ADEMI FINALLY HAS A GIRLFRIEND, OR SHOULD WE SAY, A BABY MAMA?!
The newscasters were talking about how Nigerian girls were gold diggers and Abena, or as they called her, Mystery girl, finally ‘trapped’ Tobi Ademi with a pregnancy that is probably not his.
“Why are we on t.v?” Abena asked panicky.
The picture there was a picture of when Tobi and Abena were leaving the hospital. His hands were on her waist and she was laughing at something as he whispered in her ear.
Tobi shrugged, looking calm. He expected it. He smirked at her and said. “I hope it isn’t a bad time to say, we look really good in that picture.” …
