Chapter 6

• Somia and Ashar just arrived back from the company that they went to, to have a meeting with and also went to Ashar's mother's shop to get clothes for Somia as he had promised. His mother had a very big shop that she sold just only clothes, shoe and bags.
• She just opened the shop, for her to just be busy sometimes. If it was for her husband which was Ashar's father he didn't wanted her to work at all, since that they had everything.
• The driver drove inside the car park in their own company, Somia's carried the three bags that the clothes were inside it and with her own bags.
• Ashar walked to the other side that Somia was and helped her to open the door, she showed her appreciation and both of them were going inside.
• It has been closing time already but some other people were still in the company doing some things, the secretary too was still there.
• Funbi had carried her bag and wanted to be going home. She was among the managers of the company and she was the one that was closer to Ashar and also knew by his family.
• She ran back to a corner as she saw Somia and Ashar entering, where she was, was almost closed to the secretary place and looking at them. Her eye went straight to the bag that Somia's was carrying and saw that they also went somewhere else except from the company that they went to.
• Ashar turned back as they got to the secretary place and faced Somia. Her was just looking down and looking like moron. Funbi was looking at them, the secretary just focused on what she was doing on the computer.
• "That is my formal personal assistant's office house. You too suppose to resume there and be calling you anytime I want to see you but it's my office you will be using and be all days!"
• "His office! She won't use that office!" Funbi said from where she was.
• "Okay Sir!" Somia said with lower voice and looked at the office that he was showing her.
• "You can sign out now and be going home!"
• "Okay! Thank you very much Sir!!" Said with lower voice.
• "Resume back on Monday. It's Monday that you suppose to resume with other that just employed with you but I used this to punish you for running away!" Said with lower voice, brought his phone out from his pocket and gave it to her to enter her phone number.
• "I have enter it Sir!" Gave the phone back to him.
• "Take the car key, tells the driver to drop you at home!" Holding the car key.
• "Not need Sir. Good bye Sir!" Going to the front of the secretary and Ashar was looking at her.
• "Anytime I want to take you home, don't question my order okay!" Said and going to his office.
• Funbi came out from the corner that she was and walked closer to the secretary place.
• She put her bag down, moved more closer to Somia. Somia just looked at her, gave the book back to the secretary and she moved it to Funbi. Somia carried her bags and going out.
• Funbi looked at her still she gone, sign out and going out.
• Funbi was a young married woman, got married to a son of a politician in Nigeria and which was also among the shareholder of the company and it was three years back. Also they had a daughter together whom was one year old.
• She was like a friend to Ashar’s fiancé, so that was why she was very curious and took it important to know what was between Somia and Ashar.
• Ashar’s fiancés knew that Ashar used to carry all those girls but because it was matchmaking she too didn’t care just looking at him, and since that two of them it was their parents wish that they were doing.
• All those girls that Ashar and his friend used to carry, they didn’t used to carry them than the club place and if they wanted to meet again it was at that club that Somia and Nana went to. That was also why Funbi was so curious with the way Ashar was doing to Somia and also chooses her as his personal assistant.
• ********
• Somia’s mother was in the living room, sitting on the chair and watching movie with Ibrahim when Nibia was in the kitchen cooking for all of them.
• They just arrived back from shop two hours ago. Nibia and Ibrahim went to meet their mother at shop after finished studying with their friends and came home together.
• “Madam! What are you cooking since?” Their mother asked as Nibia was coming out from the kitchen.
• “i am hungry just be fast! Be fast please!” Ibrahim Said.
• “My own food is special cooking. As it is just started cooking, so you have to excesses patient and stop complaining that you are hungry!” Nibia said as she sat down on the chair and talking to Ibrahim.
• “Miss special! That your food must has ready before my daughter arrives, she can’t go to work with empty stomach and still come back waiting for food to ready!”
• “It will ready before sister arrives, I think so!” Said with lower voice.
• “Think so! Don’t know why your own food use to take long!” Ibrahim complained.
• “Food! Food!! That is what you know. Do you take the bag that I ordered you to bring home from shop?” Their mother asked Ibrahim and he was silent for few seconds.
• “I don’t, I will carry it tomorrow. It really escaped my mind!” Said with lower voice.
• “If I send you back to shop now, how will you feel——“ she was talking when the door opened and Somia entered with the bags in her hand.
• Ibrahim quickly walked to her, collected the bags and Somia sat down on the floor. Greeted her mother and replied the greeting from her siblings.
• “Welcome my daughter!, how was work today?” 
• “It was fine Ma. I was gave tomorrow free and to resume on Monday!” Took the bottle of water on the table, drank everything and dropped the bottle on the floor.
• “It’s clothes, shoes and bags that full this bag. Have they paid your salary?” Nibia asked as she was checking the bags.
• “Salary! That I just resumed to work today and by time in the month, today is just third!”
• “Thinking May be they paid you half payment!” Ibrahim Said.
• “No! Even if they paid I won’t buy all this clothes when many things are on the ground to do. It’s my boss whom I am is personal assistant that bought it for me and he instead!”
• “Your boss!. Not him, sent his men here to come and picked you!” His mother said.
• “May be he knows you somewhere before or knows about our father!”
• “He knows nothing about us. Let forget about that, I don’t want to pay your school fees one after the other because it’s now that you will be fighting that pay mine first! So, I will pay it together!”
• “That can’t work Sis. We are starting exam six months now and if you say you want to pay it together, it will be next year before one million reach!” Nana said.
• Their school fees was five hundred thousand each and it was one big private university. Gain admission to it a year after their father’s dead and before Uncle stood up on them.
• “My salary is five hundred thousand Naira, so your school fees will be pay together!”
• “Five hundred thousand! Not one hundred and fifty thousand again. I think that is what they sent to you when they called you for an interview!” Her mother said.
• “Yes! That is what I too think, but my boss said he will pay me five hundred thousand Naira”
• “Wow!! This is the kind of job you want to run away from, even why did you ran?” Nibia asked.
• “Ordered them to come and pick you at home and now five hundred thousand instead of one hundred and fifty thousand, also bought all these for you. Is your boss old or young!”
• “He is very young guy. Why did you asked mom?”
• “Tell me have two of you met somewhere before. And you haven’t tell me why you ran and said that they didn’t gives you a job. Talk to me?” 
• “Mom! We are going to continue with this conversation later, I need to bath!” Stood up from the floor, carried her bag and wanted to be going to her room.
• “I know you will pick some, just pick the one you want and bring others to my room!” Talking to Nibia and going inside. Ibrahim was just happy that their school would soon be paid. 
• She entered her room, dropped her bag on the bed with her phone. Off the cloth, dropped them inside the basket at the back of the door. Took a towel on the bathroom door, wrapped it and wanted to enter the bathroom when her phone started ringing. She stepped back and picked the phone. It was her friend Nana that was calling.
• “Hello friend!!! How are you doing, still here enjoying yourself?” Nana asked.
• “Where?, you know that I have an interview and didn’t called to ask about it!” Said with loud voice and with a little anger.
• “Oh!! That one had escaped my mind, I hope you are still with that guy enjoying yourself and I have know what to tell your mother if she called. Even who is that guy?”
• “So you know that I followed that guy and didn't brother to call me. When you know that I am drank, not in my normal sense again!”
• “Why will I. I saw that you like the guy and I left you to enjoy the guy. Well! You are not a virgin anymore, why are you worried then. Come on enjoy your life!” Somia breathe in and remembered what Ashar Said That ‘just be careful with that your friend’
• “Not your fault at all, it was me that followed you there. What if he is someone that will kill me, this is what you will be saying!” Said with anger showed all over her.
• “Those people that use to come to that place are rich boys and girls. Can’t do that—-“
• “Shut up!! Just shut up okay. You know what don’t call me again!!” She hang up and dropped the phone on the bed with anger.
• Decided to be going back to the bathroom when her phone started ringing again. She picked it without checking the person.
• “Did you think am joking. Nana!! Don’t call me again!”
• “Helllo!! Somia!” Heard Ashar’s voice and calm down.
• “Hello Sir. Sorry Sir!!”
• “Have you get home and do you love all those clothes?”
• “I have got home and i like them, thanks Sir!” Saying with lower voice.
• “Okay!, have a sweat dream about our last night Okay!” Somia breath in and cut off.
• Somia had never knew Ashar’s name and didn’t knew how to ask. Just waiting for the time someone would mistakenly called him.
