“You know too much work can make you get wrinkles” Wale teased Simi.
Simi placed her head on his laps as they were seeing a movie together in Adewale’s apartment.
They are lovebirds already 🥰
“That’s not true! You’re just being naughty!!” Simi laughed as she spanked him jokingly.
“Am being serious here! Working a lot can make you grow old” He laughed
“I work a lot because I don’t want to feel bored that’s all” Simi defended herself.
“Oh really? How can you be bored when am always here to cheer you up?” He smiled
“Then why were you teasing me?” Simi pouted her mouth.
“Cos you look more beautiful when teased!” He winked at her as she chuckled.
Adewale’s phone rang aloud and he quickly picked it up.
It was his friend.
📱 Hello man… What’s up?… Adewale asked as he feeds Simi with the popcorn.
And Simi smiled happily.
📱 Am in deep shit mehn… His friend said
📱 Deep shit? Why what happened?…. He asked anxiously
📱 It’s Yosi… She’s in the hospital right now… His friend said devastatedly
📱 What? Damn! Don’t tell me you did it?… Wale said angrily
📱 I wasn’t myself dude.. I was… He tried to defend himself
📱 Enough already! I wonder if you see her as a woman or a punching bag… Adewale said
📱 It’s not my fault Wale… His friend said
📱 Whose fault is it then? Mine?… Adewale ranted
📱 Fine! Just come over man.. Am already feeling worst right now…. His friend said
📱 Which hospital?…. Adewale asked
📱 St Martin’s hospital… His friend said and Wale hung up.
He breathed heavily.
“What happened babe?” Simi asked anxiously on seeing Wale’s countenance change.
“It’s my friend and his wife again?” Adewale said
“What about them?” Simi asked
“His wife’s at the hospital… I need to be there baby! You can just wait for me here” Wale said
“No! I want to go with you” Simi said
“Come on baby just stay” Wale said
“No way! Am coming with you” Simi insisted
“Alright…” Adewale said.

“Am happy for you my sister! At least before the year ends, you will be sure to get a grandchild” Aunt Bukky… Mrs Folashade’s friend said
“Bukky am so excited… At least none of my friends will laugh at me cos one of my daughters is married” Mrs Folashade said.
“Errrmm…. That reminds me what about your eldest daughter Simi?” Aunt Bukky said
“Mmhh… I don’t understand that girl! Aah… Oluwa joor ooo… God help me for that girl’s case” Mrs Folashade said as she ate the apple
“I don’t understand… Kiloshele?” Aunt Bukky said
“She just doesn’t want to get married” Mrs Folashade said
“Aah! Raraa ooo… Why now?” Aunt Bukky asked
“If you ask me, na who I go ask? She’s giving me problems but otioo (No oo) she will not succeed in giving me high blood pressure” Mrs Folashade said
“Are you serious? This is not good at all” Aunty Bukky said
“It is not oo and I pray that with the deliverance she received from err… Pastor Obafemi, she will come back to her senses” Mrs Folashade said
“I hope too” Aunty Bukky added

“She’s fine! Just getting ready for her exams” Aunt Bukky smiled
“How is she coping? Life in secondary school and….” Mrs Folashade said
But she was interrupted by the loud knock on the door.
“Who is it? Please come in” She said as the door was opened and Omotola walked in.
“Ekaasan ma!” She greeted the two ladies
“Aah! Tola how are you doing my daughter?” Mrs Folashade smiled
“Am fine maami” She said
“Why not join us? With the apples” Aunt Bukky said

“Maami it’s about Toyosi” Omotola said calmly
“Toyo? What’s up with my pikin?(child)” Mrs Folashade asked
“Uhmm… You see Femi beat her up so badly and she was rushed to the hospital” Omotola said
“Ehhh?…” The two ladies screamed in unison

Wale pulled over in the hospital garage.
As Simi and himself hopped down from the car and rushed into the hospital.
They walked towards Wale’s friend’s wife’s ward.
Wale walked into the ward.
Simi followed up and opened the door.
She gasped….
