Chapter 22: Chapter 22

VICTORIA'S POV....

"Hello."

"Hey, good afternoon." I greeted

"Babe wassup." Ayo said over the line.

"I'm fine and you?"

"I'm good. Any problem?" He asked and I frowned.

"Wait, can't I just call my boyfriend again." I asked and I can already see him rolling his eyes even if he isn't here.

"Didn't we speak this morning. It's just one hour ago we cut the call. So you calling me again means there is something you want to tell me...or ask from me." He said and I just had to laugh.

"You know me too well." I said and he groaned

"Please don't tell me you're traveling and won't be back till next month. Cos I won't survive." He sighed

"What makes you say that?" I raised a brow as I subconsciously played with the huge teddy bear he bought me last valentine.

Oh no.

I've turned into a love demon.

I can't even sleep at night without cuddling Mr. Valentino.

That's my bear's name.

"I had a dream last night and you were telling me that you were traveling out and won't be back till a month later." He said and I laughed again

"I'm not going anywhere. Wait, you see me in your dreams?" I asked already biting my lower lip.

"Whatever...what did you want to tell me?" He asked

Subject changed.

"I need your help." I said and he sighed

"When you talk like that, then you're not asking for a small task." He said.

With a chuckle, I rolled to the other side of my bed staring at the ceiling. Since the beginning of the call I've been smiling.

I'm such a dramatic idiot.

"What do you want me to do?" He asked and I smiled more.

"Um. I can't talk now, but can we meet somewhere?" I asked

"Babe, If you just wanted to go on a date with me you could have just asked."

Mumu.

"It's not a date. Trust me." I reassured.

"So you don't...you don't want to go on a date with me?" He pouted

"I would but it's not a date. Now. I just want to you talk about something important." I explained

"Okay, should we meet now or do you want to plan our date later in the day." He probably has a smug smile on his face

"Odè it's not a date. Oya Ayo stop jhoor." I wish he was here so I can spank his head.

He uses almost everything to play in this life.

*****

"Hey babe." Ayo approached me before placing a small kiss on my lips.

O. M. J.

He just kissed me in public.

Is this guy forgetting that this is Nigeria. Now they'll see us as bad children.

"So do you want a drink or something?" He suggested and I nodded.

He signals to a waiter in the restaurant and they both took their orders.

"What was it you wanted me to do?" He got straight to the point.

"Ayo." She said

"Yeah?" He dragged his reply.

"Tunde and Deborah are in love." She said bluntly.

There was a pause.

....

"What?" He raised his brows, a little too high for a normal person.

What, I thought everyone was going straight to the point?

"What makes you say that, Cos I know for sure that they haven't met in this life."

It's a small world.

"I know. Well that's what my analysis says." I shrugged

"What the hell did you analyze?" He asked

"I asked both of them about each other and their body language for sure was enough to know that they know each other. And Debby doesn't know a guy...she takes them as crap. But her reaction towards Tunde was different."

"So let me understand this. You made an analysis and you concluded it by body language?" He asked and I nodded.

Well if he puts it that way, then yes.

He face palmed himself before sighing.

"How did you end up studying psychology?" He asked and my face turns into a death glare.

"I don't mean it like that. I meant, it's hard to understand people like you. If you say what you just said to someone else, they'd say you're crazy. Body language. Yes she might have known him. He's a flirt, So is she, they met, had a one night stand and probably parted ways, how does all this lead to love?" He scoffed.

"I swear I know they're in love." I insisted

"Did you sleep last night. Or did you go to a bar again?" His expression began to change to a worried one.

"Yes and no...trust me, I know what I'm saying." I pouted and he sighed

"Okay. If they were as you put it, in love, then what are we supposed to do about it?"

Yes, I have him on my side now.

"Don't you watch movies, we set them up. Bring them together and make them like each other again." I explained with enthusiasm.

"Babe, you know that if this you plan goes wrong, our friendship with them would go down the cliff..."

"But, when it works, we'll have two people who are deeply in love with each other." I smiled and his face turned into confusion.

"Where did I know you from again?" He face palmed himself.

"A BRT bus." I kept smiling.

"Fine. I'll do what you want me to do. But Incase they ask, this was all your idea and you forced me into it."

"Deal."

Now do you see why I love him?
