    The Last Attempt 2.

    “Dapo, I almost killed both of us. What if he had died?” We were almost at our BQ. “Thank God he didn’t. And I’m glad you survived too. Just don’t scare me like that again,thank you. So, why are you still missing him?” “You can’t understand. I loved him, genuinely.” “He was deceiving you, there’s…

    “Babe, stop crying now, you know you are better than this, come on…” “Dapo, I have never scored below the Duncan line. Never. Why should it start now? That Viva guy… what’s his name again?” “Dr. Ibeji…?” “Yes, him. I am so sure he failed me on purpose. He should have just stayed abroad forever.”…

    One Night Too Many 9.

    I’m certain if Bode had looked at my face a split second earlier, he would have seen the shock and disbelief boldly stamped on it. By the time he looked though, I had readjusted my face to the joyful, shyly grateful wife who was happy her affair was not forever stamped on her life. “Dr.…

    One Night Too Many 8.

    TWO MONTHS LATER I wasn’t sure if Bode was sex starved or it was the euphoria of being a father that had brought an extra zest to his libido. It was a lazy Saturday, I was in the kitchen making our lunch when he came in. I was putting on my favorite house dress, a…

    My open mouth could not utter anything, not even a scream. This was my own sister, comfortable with dating a man who should be dead, for the good of all mankind. I really wanted to know his jazz man. Something was just not right. “Ayotunde led a terrible life before. He was the leader of…

    One Night Too Many 6.

    Have you ever woken up, seen something or someone, and then had to pretend to still be sleeping? Waking up to see Bode and Tiwa standing like body guards at the foot of my bed was enough to make me wish for another shot of diazepam. Before I was wheeled into theatre,these two were fighting…

    One Night Too Many 5.

    A week after my discussion with Tiwa, I was watching a movie with Bode in our room. It was one of those rare nights when we did something together other than sleep or have sex. I had imagined that being pregnant would have made us closer but it seemed to be doing the exact opposite.…

    “Bode, please can you drop me at Tinuke’s place? I want to see her for some things.” “Okay. I’d just wait for you so I can drive you back home.” “That won’t be necessary. Pregnancy does not kill.” “Babe, I am not taking any chances. This is,,,” “Yes, this is our first baby. But no,…

    2 MONTHS LATER. “Nike, you’re really looking good this morning. In fact, you’ve been looking fresher these days.” I smiled at Bode. I knew what he was talking about. Most of my clothes were looking more fitting, my face was fresher and my hair was longer. “Thanks Bode, it shows you’ve been taking good care…

    One Night Too Many 2.

    Dr. Tiwa Kunmbi was handsome. I know some women would come for ,my head, but he was more handsome than Bode. “Sister Nike, better don’t play with fire. Yes, he is a fine man. But nobody said anything about spending unnecessary time with him.” “Tinuke don’t worry. He is a doctor, they have that their…
