Episode 1
A lady flew all the way from Kaduna to meet this guy she met coincidentally sometimes ago in Asaba.
.
.
Sophia met Ekene during her kid sister’s wedding preparations. They had come to main market Onitsha to buy valuable stuffs for a glamorous wedding.
It was on one of those outings that she encountered Ekene who happens to be living and working in Asaba but shuttles Onitsha at intervals.
Whilst Sophia lived in Kaduna and worked in a company as an IT specialist.
They had exchanged contacts at first port of call. Then, events started unfolding after Sophia sister’s much anticipated wedding.
They became so close and entwined to each other – all thanks to video calls and various social media platforms.
Sophia promised to visit Ekene on several occasions but reneged on her promises overtime.
Then, Ekene visited Kaduna. Although, his visit had nothing to do with Sophia. It was an official trip. But he tried unsuccessfully to spend some time with Sophia but all efforts failed to yield the expected results.
Although, he met Sophia privately but it was just for few minutes. And for those few minutes, they ended up heated and wet.
Ekene returned to Asaba disappointed, and Sophia fantasied for the remainder of the day and week to come.
Ekene represents very well. He was a man with a deep voice. Sophia’s mumu button was uncovered by Ekene’s good representation.
They continued loving up as usual from afar but along the line, Ekene faulted Sophia for her inability to visit him. Sophia was in a better position to make a trip if she’s willing to make a little sacrifice.
Sophia promised to visit Asaba again. Ekene even sent Tfare although she never asked but Ekene hesisated.
Again, she failed to turn up at three different occasions.
Ekene was stirred up three times and nothing happened. He became angry but pretended as if everything was okay.
Sophia really desire to visit Ekene but usually gets distracted by unknown forces. Each time she planned to visit, one thing or the other would shatter her plans.
Ekene remained upbeat and even made further enquires about Sophia behind her back. Along the line, he found something about Sophia and kept it very close to his chest.
Sophia’s fantasied about Ekene on daily basis as communication between them remained cordial and juicy. She couldn’t endure any longer. She hatched a plan and that plan seemed to be the game changer.
She informed Ekene that she will be visiting Asaba penultimate weekend. Ekene seemed happy and basking in the euphoria of Sophia’s visit once again.
The time arrived and Sophia plans hit the brick wall in a manner that frustrated her greatly.
Whilst Ekene seemed less disappointed. It was as if he had anticipated the outcome. Or, maybe, he had began to loose interest but decided to play the gentleman’s game.
Sophia devised another means and this time around it was make or mar. It became obvious that Sophia will be visiting Ekene in Asaba as she was granted 4 days compassionate leave.
However, she had manufactured a big lie and hoped it doesn’t backfire – she won’t forgive herself . She had gained the leave on compassionate grounds.
It’s been a long wait – running into months, and so on..
stay tuned for the completion of this story.
