Simi raised her face….
Her eyes were heavy and reddish..
She quickly hugged Adewale in tears.
Some minutes later of weeping in his broad shoulders, she disengaged the hug.
“Am sorry….” Simi said as she quickly picked up her handkerchief and mopped her face with it.
“What happened?” Adewale asked calmly to Simi’s surprise.
“It’s nothing!” Simi lied
“You know I heard you speaking to your mom over the phone” Adewale said
Simi burst into tears again but she kept wiping her face.
“You don’t understand my predicament Mr Adewale… The feeling of being disliked in the family… It’s killing me!” Simi opened up.
“Believe me I know that feeling… I understand everything you are saying! I keep feeling that way everyday when it comes to my dad” Adewale said bitterly
“My younger sister is always been seen as the best… No matter how hard I work, I can never compete with Toyosi” Simi cried
“Toyosi? Hmm… My friend’s new wife’s name! Anyways this is Yoruba for you! Names everywhere!” Adewale.
“Yeah right! You know I never knew you smile” Simi said as he bursted into laughter.
“Really? Am I that cold?” Wale said happily
“Yeah! Much more than that… That I wondered the kind of beast you are” Simi teased him as they laughed heartily.
“I’ve not always been like that! Just that my father and I doesn’t really get along with each other… He’s an eye sore to me” Wale said
“Eye sore? Why?” Simisola asked as she furrowed her brows.
“We don’t see each other eyeball to eyeball… And I don’t refer to him as daddy, I call him by his name Mr Oladipo” Wale said
“That isn’t so nice!” Simi said
“I know! But I can’t seem to bring myself to forgive him for what he did in the past” Wale said
“It’s okay!” Simi said as they smiled at each other.
And shook hands…
“Friends?” Wale smiled broadly
“Friends!” Simi smiled as well.
💖Friendship 💖

Simi was preparing dinner in the kitchen and singing loudly in excitement.
Yemisi walked into the kitchen still in her work attire.
Simi didn’t even notice her presence cos she was busy singing.
“Hmm.. Seems like someone is so excited today!” Yemisi screamed and Simi flinched.
“Oh! Yemi welcome home!! You startled me!” Simi smiled
“Sorry about that but you almost sang the house down” Yemi said
“Haa…Yemisi joor… Just let me be” Simi laughed
“Oh really? Hmm… So what’s the secret of your happiness?” Yemi nudged her.
“My goodness! You’re so unbelievable… Nothing! Am just happy” Simi said as she fried the fishes.
“You know you can not deceive me right?” Yemi said as she gulped down a glass of juice.
“Well uhhm… Am going for a date” Simi said shyly.
Yemi popped out her eyes in shock.
“A date?” Yemi asked anxiously
“Yeah a date!” Simisola smiled revealing her white sparkling teeth.
“Oh my gosh! You never told me you’ve got a Prince Charming?” Yemi shouted
“Prince Charming? Of course not! Adewale is just a friend… And it’s a friendly date” Simi said
“Ughh…. That’s how it starts! From friendly date to couple date” Yemi teased
“Can you please go upstairs and change… Stop bugging me already” Simi screamed at her.
“Whatever! I can’t wait for your… Uhm… What’s his name again?” Yemi asked
“Get lost Yemisi!” Simi shouted at her playfully.
“Your… Adewale to slip a ring into that finger” Yemi said as she rushed out of the kitchen.
“Naughty girl!” Simi groaned
👠 👠
Yemi walked into the room.
She saw Simi’s date clothes on the bed.
It was a very beautiful long gown.
Army green gown and a classy golden heels.
She laughed heartily.
“Finally dear Simi will soon get herself a lover! Am so happy…. Save her from further embarrassment” She chuckled.

Toyosi walked into her friend’s apartment.
She was putting on glasses.
“Hey Toyo! You didn’t tell me you were coming” Omotola asked anxiously.
“You won’t understand girl” Toyo said with a teary voice.
“Are you ok? What happened? Why are you crying? Did you get into a fight?” Omotola asked anxiously
“Too many questions” Toyosi said
“So tell me what is it? Have Femi seen you?” Omotola asked
“Actually he’s the one am crying for” Toyo wailed.
“How?” Omotola asked
Toyo quickly removed her eye glasses.
