Man “Alone"

Chapter 11

KNOCK. KNOCK!! KNOCK!!

"I am coming just hold on and calm down,oh! Jennifer it's you." said Funke as she opened the door only to see a familiar face .

" No wonder those knocks felt familiar" said Funke while muttering under her breath towards the end of her sentence .

* I am sorry if I knocked too loudly but it is just kind of a thing I do, but I am I will try to change to make you comfortable around me ." said Jennifer .

"That is nice of you but let's get going now, will that be okay with you ." asked Funke.

"Amaka let's go." beckoned Funke as she waved for Amaka to follow even though she had already been by her side for a while now.

" Bye ladies, let yourselves out when you are ready to go." said Funke as she left with both Jennifer and Amaka while making their way downstairs.

" so Jennifer where to ." asked Funke after they got into a different car this time this one being a Benz.

" And thank God you did not come pick me up with that limo from you his morning,and if we are going to be doing this regularly I suggest you use a more low-key vehicle to avoid getting unwanted attention from anybody especially some very nosy neighbors." said Funke as she sat down at the back seat comfortably alongside Amaka who was maintaining her usual stoic expression while staring out the window clearly on alert for anything.

' She just said exactly what was on my mind we really need to either get a security detail or we get a vehicle that blends in with the surrounding, but t guess that is for another time preferably during their date I could arrange it . ' thought Amaka to herself.

Thirty minutes later. ....

" Miss we have arrived ." announced Jennifer as the vehicle came to a halt .

As the vehicle came to an halt Funke having paying attention to her surroundings noticed that this was the Cheron district owned by the Cheron family a gathering place for the rich ,famous and powerful people both young and old it was a place that the Cheron family made sure could only be accessible to the wealthy and no one else that did not fit into that category and for her to be here it meant that this was the location for the supposed date that was meant to go on between both Funke and Tokunbo .

"ma'am you can come out now." said Jennifer after opening the door for her while Amaka had already stepped out of the car unbeknownst to anybody as she just suddenly appeared behind Jennifer as she stood erect with both hands by her side surveying her surroundings making sure no one with any ulterior motives came too close or anybody for that matter.

"Okay, let's proceed forward." said Amaka after making sure everything was okay.

Following behind Amaka gave Funke the feeling of being rich as only rich people could afford an elite bodyguard like Amaka, as both women came up to the front desk of the Cheron restaurant which was one of the towering buildings that littered and lined this district they came up to a woman at the front desk who attended to them.

" welcome to The Cheron restaurant how can I be of assistance to you."asked the receptionist as she beamed down her charming smile that displayed her beautiful sets of white shining teeth alongside a voice as sweet as that of an angel.

" We have a reservation under the name Tokunbo." said Amaka to the receptionist with Funke by her side.

' This lady is so pretty and she is only a receptionist, yet she makes me feel so overshadowed , I hope my makeup is okay I know this is not meant to mean anything but I do not want to look bad on the first date I have had in a while even if it is only fake .' thought Funke to herself while Amaka handled the matter going on .

" Just a minute ." replied the receptionist in her Angelic voice as she turned to face her computer to check her computer for records.

" Okay a reservation for Tokunbo VIP room on the twenty second floor , please do down the be hall and you will see the elevator by the stairs." said the receptionist.

" Thank you ." said Amaka as she went her way while leading Funke as they got to the elevator before making their way to the Twenty-second floor .
