“I’am glad you are here” Michael said as he stared deeply at Becca who was sitting in front of him. They are in a beautiful restaurant, Michael had a long sleeves shirt on, but he rolled up his sleeves, he had a denim jeans on. Becca was putting on a short black flair gown and a white scandals on, her hair was backed up and little of her hair were left unpacked, it was left falling over her eyes.
“Hmm.. I too” Becca hummed “Let’s eat and please stop staring at me, it makes me uncomfortable” She said, Michael chuckled.
“That reminds me.. Why aren’t you in school??” He asked, Becca stopped eating briefly, looked at him and smiled.
“I don’t have enough money, I will go later when Jemima gets to the university but I might just go to do a course, you know all these one that don’t take time” Becca said.
“Oooh.. What if I wanna help you to go to school??” Michael asked as he ate his food.
“Well I don’t wanna go yet” She replied simply.
“OK then” Michael said “What do you wanna be??” He asked again.
“A wrestler” Becca said and Michael choked, he started to cough, Becca stoop up, gave him water which he drank, she rubbed his back.
“What the hell!!!!” Michael scre-med “You can’t” he said horrified and then Becca burst out laughing.
“Just joking” Becca said she went back to sit down.
“Better be, so what do you wanna be or do??” Michael said relived.
“Many things, I wanna be a newscaster, a writer and a motivational speaker” She answered smiling.
“Awwwwnnn that’s great”
“I wanna ask you a question” Becca said casually.
“Am all ear for my queen” He said and she blushed.
“I heard something about someone, the person has a short time on earth as in you know the person is going to die soon and the person also have loved ones but each time he wanna tell them, he feels so sad and scared, only few of the loved ones know about it and also this person in question does not want to tell anyone anymore, he feel uncomfortable and depressed about it.. What do you advice the person” She asked as she sipped her drink.
“Well.. That’s a very difficult one, but if the person feel sad, uncomfortable and depressed to tell the issue to his loved ones then he shouldn’t yet but he should look for a convenient time to tell them, I think that is what I will advice him to do” Michael explained.
“Hmmm… Okay then, that’s better, thanks” Becca responded.
“Becca you do know I like you right???” He asked sincerely and immediately Becca stopped eating and looked at him.
“Ofcourse, do you hate me before now ??” She asked jokingly.
“Becca! C’mon be serious” He said seriously which gained her attention, he held her hands across the table car-ssing them gently “Ever since I met you, you have occupied my thoughts, my mind, I haven’t felt like this in a long time and when I even felt like this, it wasn’t for long but yours have been for a while.. Rebecca I more than like you, I want to always be with you, mere mentioning you name gives me joy and make me behave like a child…… “Michael was interrupted by sobs, he looked and saw Becca in tears “I don’t mean to make you cry, did I say something wrong… Maybe I should stop.. I am sorry” He said and handed her a handkerchief, which she took.
“Michael I will tell you the truth…. I don’t think…” She said and stopped, Michael heart raced very fast as they stared at each other “I can ever do without you” She said and the excitement in his heart knew no bound “Since the time I had your voice, I felt something for you too, I thought you wanna be my friend only, I do get scared sometimes when I think you might not like me back”
“I do, and I am happy you feel the same for me” Michael said excited.
“Yes I do, and yeah thanks for making me feel special and wanted” Becca said smiling like a child.
“Hmmmm… Talking about wanted” He said smiling to her with mischief and winking sed-ctively.
“Jeez!!!! Stop it” She said and they both laughed.
“Close your eyes” Michael said gently.
“Hmm… I don’t usually like that, I should be sensitive to my environment in case anything happens, I want to be alert…”
“Seriously!! Becca” Michael interrupted her and gro-ned, she giggled.
“Fine” She said and closed her eyes.
“Opened them now”
“Wow!!!” She exclaimed when she saw three beautiful and pretty cases “The case looks so beautiful” she said admiring the case “Yes.. I have been meaning to ask you.. Where do you work??? You normally look moderately expensive, you have never mentioned that to me” She asked with seriousness.
“Oh that, I work in the Darlingtons’ company here in Nigeria” He said.
“What??!!! Are you serious??” She asked shocked.
“Why??? You look surprised, any problem??”
“I have heard alot about that company, gosh!!! They are so rich, like they have bastard money, you know what I mean they are money, they are all over the world.. And you work in one of their companies.. I don’t even need to ask you what you do there, even the lowest worker earns more than a government worker and I am sure you did alot before you got a job there like it’s hærd to entered that company and get a job, but it worths it at the end, am happy for you.. Like they are madly rich” She exclaimed and Michael watched her “Girls drool over the men, I think they are brothers or friends, I don’t really bother myself about them but I must say they have done well and they are hærd working” She concluded.
“Am sure if they hear this from you, they did be happy” Michael said.
“If I ever see them, I will give them a thumps up and say “Guys your are really amazing” they deserve it” She said with her hands formed in a thumps up, Michael laughed at her behavior.
“So???” He said pointing at the cases on the table “Open them” she smiled and obeyed, the first one was a wrist watch, a beautiful one which had her name and Michael’s.
“Becca and Michael” She reads, the and was written in a love symbo.
“Do you love it???” He asked.
“I super love it!!” She exclaimed, she proceeded to open the next one “Wow!!!” She exclaimed, this case had two necklace very beautiful ones, one had a key and the other a heart, Michael took the two and fixed them together “Wow!! The key and the heart hmmm.. Wonderful”
“Am happy you love them, so which one do you think I should take??” He asked sweetly, Becca smiled.
“First I know men want something manly and not girly.. So you have the keys let me have the heart” She said, and Michael haven a relief.
“I thought you would let me wear the heart… But am happy am having the keys” He said and Becca laughed.
“Our names are on it??” She said more like a question, Michael nodded, she smiled, he stood up and helped her with the necklace, he sat down and she also helped him with his.
“Thanks” He said with smiles as she sat down.
“And you too” She said and proceeded to opened the last one, when she did, she was stunned, she looked shocked with her hands covering her mouth “What!??” She said when she found her voice and looked at Michael who was smiling.

“I am more than happy today, you all made my day, thanks I love you all, thank you” Nicholas said as he held back his tears, the students sensed the emotions in his voice and cheered him up with claps and joyful scre-ms. The party came to an end with everyone saying they enjoyed themselves. Aliyah and Alexa said their farewell and went home. Nicholas and Roland were the last to leave “Thanks alot buddy, love you” He said and they hugged, they disengaged.
“Let’s go to the room, am tired” Roland said exhausted, Nicholas laughed.
“You, go ahead, I will be with you shortly let’s me get something from the cafeteria” Nicholas said, Roland nodded.
“Don’t take forever” Roland said.
“Okay” Nicholas said and they went different ways, As Nicholas was going back to the hostel, he looked sideways and saw a woman leaning on a car, her body seems familiar, he moved closer a bit and as the woman turned, he stared at her with w¡den eyes, she was still some distance away from him, she looks as if she was waiting for someone and tired. He looked again, as she put off her sunglasses.
“Mom???!!!!” He yelled happily and silently, just then an idea came up in his head “I pray it works” He muttered.
