"I am now the new managing director of Linda Lane oil global, said Clement". "Oh! I'm so sorry for your dad's sickness, but honestly man I am so happy for who you have become, exclaimed Henry". 'What about you?, how far have you gone in managing your families company, asked Clement'. "Honestly it's been four years now and I must say I am glad everything is working out perfectly well". 'Moreover I just signed a billion naira contract with one of our potential clients'. "You can say that again Clement said in surprise".

'Honestly I am glad for who we have become said Clement, if you don't mind me asking, what about your relationship life?, have you met the right woman yet he asked'. "Not yet my brother, I am yet to find the woman of my dream said Henry". 'Finding a good woman now is not as easy as we think, but I believe one day God will answer my prayer, because I no longer want to force things by myself, I am believing that God will direct the right woman to my path'. "Yeah; I agree with you". 'Me too I am single, I believe one day we will definitely find our missing rib said Clement'. They both laughed and after some while they pathed.

Henry observed a balcony beside and decided to go there and cool off since he had nothing to do, though he didn't want to go home at that moment.
