With his kiss, I was able to calm down while he explained further.
" My Angency paid Priscy to pretend to be my girlfriend online because she has a lot of fans on IG but she took it too personal. After I posted your bakery page on my IG story she got angry and went live and that attracted alot of netizens' attention"
" What about when she kidn*pped me?"
" We searched everywhere for you, I went to your house after Chris called me to ask of your whereabouts but then it was almost getting dark when I saw your dog, Morah, she led the way to their hideout" Ciara said.
" Wait how did Morah..."
" She must have followed you there"
" But I was in the car, how come?"
" Gelly, Morah is a smart dog, and every dog wants to protect its owner. When we got there with the police, you were almost unconscious. Priscy was arrested and detained and you've been unconscious for two days now. Gelly I'm really sorry for being so irresponsible"
" So Priscy is still detained up till now"
" Angel, your boyfriend's agency tried to calm him down but he won't stop untill his agency sued her for attempted murder, kidnap and many charges that even I can't tell".
" Gelly I'm..."
" Baby boo, it's really okey, let's say it's in the past now. Let's talk about us. Is there any news on strike?"
" They called off strike yesterday but don't tell me you are planning to go back to school?"
" Babe, I will be alright ok besides I'm not going back to school till I have spent some memorable moments with you".
The door swung open and Dave and Mike walked.
" It's no other than these fools that walk into people's houses with knocking"
" You Know this house rightfully belong to us" Dave said and we all laughed.
Was it a rumour when they said school is about to begin. I could do nothing but wish for a longer strike. You Know what I mean when I tell you 'the longer the strike, the more money I get'. It was on a Friday evening when Chris came back from work that I told him about school.
" I would be resuming school soon enough"
" Gelly baby, didn't you see the ASUU update this morning besides why do I feel like you really want to leave me all by my self huh"?
He drew me closer but I hesitated and sat down, Chris saw this as a better opportunity and laid down and placed his head on my laps.
" Don't be a baby, besides if school is about to resume why should I stay back"?
" OMG Gelly ! you just made my heart bleed"
He pretended to cry.
" Gelly, ASUU said it's a rumour nothing but rumours. They won't call of the strike until Federal Government consider their requests. Wait ! Gelly, you don't even want to stay a little longer with me even if they have called off the strike".
" Of course, I would go back to school without a second thought but if I will stay back here then it's because I need more money not because of you".
He suddenly stood up and turned around.
" Were you talking to me just now"
"Chris, do you see anyone else here apart from you and I ".
He got angry and left the room. I was satisfied with him being angry. I was just pulling his legs but he is taking things too serious. I laughed out loud and followed him out. I hugged him and held him.
" Who dares provoke His Royal Majesty? Tell me who it is then I will so deal with that person for you okey"
"Gelly leave me alone"
" But I won't survive it if I let you be, am sorry I was just joking around ok baby"
"Then, ...."
He carried me to our bedroom and turned on the red lights.
