GOOD GIRL, BAD GIRL "THE STORY OF A RUNS GIRL" (EPISODE 1)

"Rise and shine pretty girl."

Omote said to herself, after she counted the 200k Chief Akporo handed to her in cash.
Omote thought of chief Akporo as a good man.
He dashed her money without even seeing the hand of her brazier. She was aware that he was a Wealthy man, but Kennedy didn't tell her that he had a mouth odor. An elderly man in his late 50s who slipped off his wedding ring just to see her face in a broad day light at the Sheraton hotel.
Kennedy said when he showed him Omote's pictures, his eyes widened. He wanted to see her as soon as possible before he leaves for the UK to see his family.
"I be Warri man! Any woman wey I love, dey enjoy me well, well. I go give you anything you want. I don't want to share you with anybody, leave those small, small boys dem." He said huskily.
She stared at him and then turned away.
"Chief, I don't have a boyfriend, but if you can be paying my house rent and then buy me a small car. Not Tukumbor o. Tia rubber!" Omote said, rolling her eyes.
"No worry yourself, my name na Chief Esereshareberuo Akporovwovwuo Oghenefejoro, ask anybody of me, I do not break promises." She giggled and turned her face away snobbishly.
**********
Omote went back home excitedly. It was one of her lucky, good days.
The wind that blew that late afternoon caused her neatly fixed hair to scatter.
She tried to open the door of the house and found out that her elder sister Tega was already home.
"Did you get the job?" She asked as soon as she stepped into the house. Tega became calm for a while, then gave an audible sigh of relieve.
"Silly people. Imagine, that man wanted me to sleep with him first, before he can give me the job as his secretary. If I sleep with him to get the job, shebi I will be sleeping with him all through to keep it?"
She asked sadly.
"Are you a virgin? What is there to just sleep with someone for five minutes and get a well paid job that will change your life. seriously Tega, I am so tired of you. I am the one feeding you and sending money home to Mama. When will you start supporting me? Me that slept with my boss to get this job I am doing now, did I die?"
Tega stared at her, looking aghast.
"Oghene! Omor, What kind of a person are you? If not that I saw when you were born one year after I was born, I would have said our parents adopted you." Tega said softly. But before she had finished talking, Omote had started removing her shoes. She was used to her sister's talks about how different she was from her.
"Did you cook?" Omote broke the silence.
"I am just coming back from job hunting, and you are asking if I cooked."
"But you got home before me."
"And so?"
"We are eating out then."
Tega's eyes lightened as she became calm.
"Don't worry, when I get a good job, I will reciprocate all these things you've done for me."
" Go back tomorrow, beg that man and tell him that you are ready to do it." Omote said mockingly. She gave a sneering smile and widened her teeth. Tega stared at her as if she said something rude.

After they ate the Fried peppered chicken with the fried rice, and drank the chill coke, Tega began to fan herself with her bare hands.
"Thank you for lunch." she said with a stiff politeness. " I can't remember the last time I ate this much."
"Anything for my sister." Omote shoved the chicken into her mouth.
Moments later, Omote's phone rang. She picked it up immediately.
"It's my boss." she whispered, as she placed the phone to her ears.
"Hello, Good afternoon". Her tone became Loud.
"Omor my baby. Can I see you tonight?"
"At where sir?"
"Our usual spot my baby."
"Okay sir."
"I will send you the room number in a bit." He said and hung up the call.
Omote began to chew her chicken noisily.
"The way you speak to your boss is strange."
"He is my lover."
"I thought you were joking when you said you've slept with him."
"Why would I joke about a thing like that?He takes good care of me. In fact, he is the one who gave us money to rent our house."
Tega gave a great bellow of laughter.
"God bless him. I hope he is not a married man?"
"Before nkor? Is it a single man that will have that kind of money? He is married o with three children."
"Oghene! Omote, what of his wife? Don't you know that it is a curse to sleep with a married man?"
"In this present time abi? OgeheneTega, please leave my life for me." Omote said calmly and gulped down a full glass of water.
*****************
Her boss had undress and was already in bed when she walked into the hotel room with a pretentious frown on her face.
"My Omobaby! Come to Daddy!" She shook her head and still didn't look at him.
"What is it my baby? Have I not made you happy?"
"Last time that we met here, you didn't give me money o." She said, folding her arms.
" But I paid for your cab Omalicha?"
" But that wasn't my personal cash. You didn't give me money after sleeping with me."
"I was broke that day. And besides, you are not a prostitute that I should pay after sex."
Omote felt a rush of anger now.
"What was I before? I wasn't a prostitute and you slept with me before giving me the job? I want money o. I cannot give any married man my sweet mango for free." Omote said shrilly. Her face was in a bit frown. Her boss began to give a forceful smile.
" Don't worry, I will give you money today. I have been really broke since after I gave you money for your rent."
Omote had wondered why her boss always gets broke whenever he gives her money. She gave a sneering smile, and began to remove her dress slowly.
Her boss shifted a bit towards the wall, his breathing ragged and he looked at her with so much intensity as he called her name.

Omote woke to the sound of her boss's cell phone. She was naked, and lying on top of her boss who was deeply asleep.

She peeped through the phone and saw 'my wife' calling.
She tapped on her boss gently.
"Your wife wants you home, wake up."
Her boss stretched out, yawning at the same time. He didn't hear her clearly, he was about to go back to sleep when Omote tapped him for the second time.
"Your phone is ringing sir, it seems your wife is trying to reach to you o. It's almost to 9pm."
He jumped up from the bed immediately.
"My wife? where? when did she call?" he asked, looking confused. The phone rang again and he picked it, his fingers trembling.
"My dear. I was in a meeting. We are almost done. I will soon be on my way." He said, in a suddenly much less confident voice.
He hung up the call and immediately flung out of the bed to get dressed.
"Madam has called." Omote's voice became abruptly loud.
"Yes. I need to go now." He said in a panic whisper, as he opened his brief case.
"Omalicha, should I give you in cash or in cheque?"
"In cash sir. The last time I got a cheque, I discovered at the bank that it was a fake one."
But her boss was lost in the conversation while counting some money. He threw a bunch of one thousand naira notes to her, she grabbed it with one hand.
"Bad girl Omalicha. You like money too much."
The smile varnished, and her eyes shaded with a hint of anxiety as she counted the money.
***********
Moments after her boss had gone, she dressed up quickly and hurried down to the elevator. And while she was anxiously waiting for the elevator to open, a lady dressed in a lemon silky gown stepped out, the smell of her designers perfume hit on Omote's noise. There was a young boy behind her, he had multiple chains on his neck, and had a small earring fixed to his Ears, the big tattoo paintings on his hands gave him a weird look.
"Nice scent." Omote said as she walked into the elevator.
"Omote Oscar?" The lady in a lemon coloured gown called out. Omote became amazed. She stepped out of the elevator immediately and stared at the lady directly in the face, looking confused. She was trying to depict the face.
"Shoooooo! Isioma Okoye? Unbelievable, is this really you?"
"Oh yes. You look really good. Are you married now?" She asked excitedly. Omote gave a slow nod.
Isioma would have said 'you should ask me what I have achieved since after school'.
But she gave a wide smile, and ignored responding verbally to her question on being married.
Her eyes got to the ring on Isioma fourth finger, there was a gold wedding ring in it.
"I can see you are married. Is this your husband?" She asked, pointing and smiling at the boy behind Isioma.
"Of course not. my husband works in Scotland, he visits Nigeria once in three months. This is my small boyfriend." she said Shrilly.
Omote had thought that she was the worse bitch on earth until she met Isioma. She was amazed, that despite her marital status, she would still be keeping a gigolo.
"Have my card, call me. Let's talk about old school days." She handed her a classy complimentary card. Omote got it excitedly and they both parted ways.
She had thought about Isioma and her small boyfriend all through the night.

Tega's laughter subsided, but a wistful smile remained on her face.
Omote had told her about her encounter with Isioma, who was popularly known as 'the school fucker' in secondary school.
"Does she still do that her busy body?" Tega asked, smiling wide.
"Ahhh....yes o." Omote giggled.
"I am surprise that she said she is married. what then was she doing at a hotel with a small boy?"
"I don't know o. She asked me to call her. So maybe we will talk about that when we see."
"Ah! Isioma the crazy girl." Tega laughed.
There was a loud knock on the door. Tega and Omote wondered who it was.
"Are you expecting a visitor?" Tega asked.
"No."
Omote walked to the door and opened it immediately she saw who it was.
"It's Kennedy." She whispered to Tega and clicked the door open.
"Where is my money?" Kennedy asked in a baritone voice. His face became stern. There were beads of sweat on his face, and he looked pale.
Omote did not look at his face, rather, she felt his surprise.
"He didn't touch me." Omote said with a frown on her face.
"Meaning?"
"Meaning that he didn't give me any money."
"Liar!" Kennedy yelled. " You mean that a whole Chief Akporo who gives girls 100k as thanks for coming, did not give you a dime Omor?"
"Maybe he doesn't like me. But I swear on my late father's grave, that man didn't give me a kobo. He only said that he was going to see me again."
"If I find out that you are lying enh, I will make sure Chief doesn't see you again." His voice was getting louder, his head bobbing. He walked away and slammed the door aggressively.
"Omor. Kennedy introduces you to big men? I thought you said he is just a good friend?" Tega asked softly, she continued, "Did the man give you money?"
"Holy mary, Yes!" She yelled. "He gave me 200k, and I am supposed to give Ken 20k." She sat gently on the couch.
"So why can't you give him, since you will have a whole 180k to yourself?"
"Because I am trying to set up a business for you. Since you can't use what you have to get what you want. let me be the twerp."
"I didn't send you to go about sleeping with men for money. I will not give out my body for Money!" Tega said arrogantly.
"But you can sleep with a man for love and silly emotions? See, I am not doing this for you, I am doing this for mama. She has suffered enough for Us. If I want to waste my time, and watch you as my elder sister to hustle and take care of us, we will all die. Start thinking of what you can do, so that I can make plans to give you some money. you think sey to find job for Lagos na beans?" Omote said and walked angrily into the room.
Tega said nothing. She sat carefully on the couch and bit her finger nails.

Omote nodded to the reggae music that was being played at the bar, while she sipped her red wine stylishly from the glass cup.
She had waited for Isioma for over thirty minutes at the Saints bar.
A car horn blew, and she turned her face to the window. A black, tinted range rover drove in. The lady inside wined down to get proper direction from the bar securities.
Omote was astounded to see that the lady who drove the black range rover was Isioma. Her mouth popped open as she stared in admiration.
"I am so sorry Omor, I had a busy day at the shop. Customers were trooping in and out." Isioma said, as she whistled at the bar girl.
"What do you do?" Omote asked anxiously.
"I own a Mac makeup studio on Victoria Island." Isioma said shrilly.
"Oh nice. I am thinking of a business to establish for my sister."
"Not for yourself?"
"No. My kind of business will need a lot of capital. I want to establish my sister and my mom first."
Isioma nodded slowly.
"What are you planning to do for yourself?" Isioma asked, skimming through the menu file.
" I want to own a perfumery, like a perfume shop."
"Designers perfumes?"
"Right."
Isioma finally turned to the waitress who had stood there for over two minutes, listening to their conversations.
"Get me two tots of orange vodka." She said briefly, while the girl walked away.
"Do you have children?" Omote asked.
"I have a son. He is in South Africa with my ex husband."
Omote became amazed. "you've been married before?"
"Five times in a short period of time." Isioma said.
Omote shook her head and smiled.
"They all cheated on me with other women."
Omote watched her lips as it was moving. The waiter appeared with a glass of vodka, Isioma carried it and gulped it down within a second.
"Get me another one." She said to the waiter.
"My first husband had three wives before we got married. His wives almost killed me, so I ran away. We got divorced four months later. I met my second husband, He was gay, and he was never planning to come out of it. And then I met my 3rd husband." She paused as the waiter arrived the second time with another shot of vodka. She took it and gently dropped it on the table this time.
"You can go." She said to the waiter. Then she continued, " my 3rd husband raped his sister to dead. She was just twelve. He was sentenced to life imprisonment. I divorced him before I relocated to Nigeria. He was the father of my son.
My 4th husband; After we got married, three women appeared from nowhere with different babies, they said he was already married to them. She paused and sipped the vodka a bit.
Omote's eyes widened as she listened attentively.
"And the fifth husband?" Omote broke the silence.
"He is my husband. He lives with his mistress in Scotland. He thinks I don't know, but I do."
Isioma said as she gulped down the vodka again.
Omote became startled. She stared at Isioma, at her long lashes, her long costume earrings, the thickness of her body. She was already imagining Isioma with all these men.

Omote sipped the chocolate tea slowly. Thoughts of Isioma ran through her mind over and over again. How she survived getting through five husbands in 10years still shocked her.
She didn't tell her sister Tega of her conversations with Isioma.
"I have gotten a job." Tega said excitedly. Omote's heart skipped joyously as she dropped the tea cup on a Stool. Her face beamed with a smile.
"At where?"
"A primary school at Iyana Paja. As a primary school teacher. The salary is manageable."
"Primary school at Iyana Paja?" Omote asked Amazingly. "How much is the salary?"
"Twenty thousand naira." She said smiling wide.
"Oghene! Tega, Twenty thousand naira for a first class graduate?"
"It's better than staying at home."
"From here to Iyana paja is five hundred naira Tega. you will spent more than thirty thousand for snacks and transportation. I will advice you stay at home patiently. I can be paying you the twenty thousand monthly, until I can get you a shop." Omote said softly.
"Thank you." Tega whispered as a line of tear ran through her eyes. "You are indeed my best friend and sister. I love you." Omote became emotional. Her sister's words hit her with an emotional force. she hugged Tega to herself tightly.
***************
Omote reluctantly rose from the bed to prepare for work. She had been away from work for two days without permission.
She was tagged by her colleagues as 'oga's Queen.' She disobeyed the rules and regulations of the company, and did whatever she wanted with her time.
Whenever she stepped into the office, everywhere became quiet. People had started suspecting that she was in a relationship with the boss.
"Good morning Helena." Omote greeted the receptionist shrilly as she signed the company's time book.
"Good morning aunty Omor." Helena replied excitedly.
Aunty Omor I missed you these few days o. Even though some bad belle people who don't like you gossiped about you."
"What did they say?" Omor asked, her face became anxious.
"Blessing and Nneka said yesterday that if they were the ones who stayed back from work just a day, that oga would have given them query. But that you come to work twice in a week, but still get a full salary. Nneka concluded that it's because you are oga's girlfriend." Helena reeled off.
Omor handed her a two hundred naira note and walked away elegantly.
"Thank you o aunty." Helena said in a loud tone.
Omote stepped into the main office entrance and her eyes caught with Blessing and Nneka who gave a pretentious smile. " Ah Omor baby! how far nau?" But Omote ignored. She walked straight up to her boss's office without saying a word.
"Olodoshi" Blessing whispered and sighed.
Omote clicked her boss's office open without knocking twice like other staffs do.
"Omalicha!" Her boss hailed excitedly.
"Come and give daddy a kiss."
"I don't know what I have done to Blessing and co. They keep gossiping me in this office." She said girlishly.
"Don't mind those old women, they are jealous of your beauty Omalicha. Their husbands are not taking good care of them the way I do to you." Her boss said, smiling. His gaze slid down from her shoulders to her breast.
Omote walked over to his chair, and sat slowly on his laps.
The door opened immediately, and their heart slammed as a woman's voice awoke their guts.
"My husband!"
Omote was in real trouble.

Omote became dazed; she arose slowly from her boss's laps, and brings her head down as she turns.
"What is a woman doing on your legs Obim?" The lady asked in a loud voice. She was dressed in a Senegalese wear. She gently unwrapped her head tie, and tied it loosely on her waist.
She wanted to slap Omote hardly on the face, but Omote held her hands firmly.
"You won't dare!" Omote said boldly. Her boss's wife pushed her to the floor and slapped her hard on the face.
"ashawo! leave my husband for me."
Omote pushed her forcefully to the floor, and ran out of the office, stumbling on Blessing, the Receptionist, Helena and the office security. She ignored everyone and stepped out of the office premises.
She pulls out her high heel shoes and jumped into a bus.
*********
Omote got back home, breathing heavily.
"What happened? You just left the house an hour ago." Tega asked in a shaky tone.
But Omote did not say a word. Her body sank into the lumpy mattress, her eyes closed.
She woke to the sound of her phone, and chief Akporo was the caller. Sleep disappeared from her eyes, as she picked the call.
"Hello Chief." she said weakly.
"Yes my dear. Kennedy called me to ask if I gave you any money." Her heart trembled as she sat up on the bed.
"I told him no, but that I will see you this weekend."
"Ah chief. You should have told him you won't ever see me again."
"Don't worry. I will tell him not to bother you anymore. I will personally pay him off his percentage."
"Okay. thank you."
"You sound unhappy my baby love."
"Chief I lost my job today. My boss fired me because I refused to sleep with him. I am thinking of doing a business."
"Oh my God. My baby love, I am so sorry. Don't worry, when we see over the weekend, we will talk about this."
"Are you back from London?"
"Yes my dear. But I am in Abuja now for a meeting." Chief said huskily. They call ended and Omote became hopeful.
"You lost your job?" Tega asked Surprisingly, Omote nodded.
"Why?"
"Nothing." Omote said softly.
"You slept with your boss and he dumped you?" Tega said with a disgust in her heart.
Omote got up from the bed, changed into a pair of jean and a pink, flowery blouse, and walked out of the house.
She stood on the verandah, her guilt was growing by leaps and bounds. she fell into brooding silence as her phone rang.
It was Isioma who was calling, and at that moment, she wasn't ready to pick her calls; but she reluctantly did.
"Isioma Hi." She said in a soft tone.
"Omor, I will like you to meet someone." she said shrilly.
"You are his kind of woman, and he is ready to pay anything."
Omote's face lightened as she cleared her throat.
She was surprise that Isioma would ask her to meet someone, when she had never discussed being a runs girl to her.
"Where?"
"We are at Eko hotel."
"Okay. let me shower, I will see you in two hours." She said, and hurried inside the house.

Finishing up on her translucent powder, the all white shimmering dress that she had on looked perfect in her figure eight body. The white complimented her smooth, sand complexion.
Omote was sure to turn up heads. She used the paddle brush for the last time on her black curly long hair.
"Isioma and I have a meeting." Omote said to Tega.
Tega didn't say a word. She only stared at Omote from her head to her feet.
Omote sprayed her perfume on her whole body and walked along, making a flappy sound with her wedge sandals.
***********
She stepped into the hotel Stylishly, as she walked majestically towards the bar section.
The heat in the bar was intense; the music was so loud that she could feel the bass in her chest like another heart beat.
The room was decked with red and green lights, couples danced and kissed in sidelines.
Omote stood at a corner, looking out in the crowd of sweaty, sticky dancing bodies.
"Omorrrrrrr!" Isioma screamed from behind her. They hugged themselves tightly. Isioma held her hands and walked towards a round executive table. Two guys were already seated, a bottle of champagne and a bucket of ice on the center table.
"Hi guys, meet my friend Omote." She said glamorously.
"Omor, meet my boyfriend Abiodun." She said as she points at a younger boy at about eighteen years of age.
"And then meet Roland. He is a warri guy, but grew up in America. So you will have to cope with his 'oyiboyish' lifestyle."
Isioma said excitedly.
Omote shook her head, but she looked amused.
"Hi Roland, it's a pleasure to meet you." Omote said calmly, giving her hands to Roland. Roland held her hands firmly and kissed it.
"You are so beautiful." he muttered in American English.
"Thanks. You don't really look like a warri guy though, Isioma was right, you are indeed Oyiboyish." she giggled.
"What's your native name?" Omor asked.
"Oghenekome." Roland replied excitedly, trying to pronounce the name fluently.
"Wow, my sister's name is Oghenetega."
"Unique!" he exclaimed.
Isioma and her boyfriend had started dancing to the loud sound of the club music, while Omor and Roland were trying to get along with each other.
Omote glanced up to find him staring at her. His face was firmed. His shoulders squaring, but he didn't look away.
He was one of the most handsome men Omote had ever seen, and she wondered why she didn't see a wedding band in his finger.
The glance they shared was strangely intimate, as if she'd come upon him at his most vulnerable moment.
Omote flipped her hair over her shoulders with a wink.
"Why are you staring at me that way?"
"Because I never knew I was going to fall in love at first sight for the first time in my Life.
Omote didn't want to hear about love at that moment. She didn't want a boyfriend. She had lost her job, and all she wanted was a sugar daddy who was going to take good care of her. She wasn't sure of Roland.
"Are you married?" Omote popped out the question.
"No. I am not." Roland whispered into her ears.
He wasn't aware that a NO was a turn off for Omote. She wanted a married man with a purpose. Love was the least thing she wanted.

Everyone stood in awe admiring spectacle on the dark shores of the night.
It was a magnificent sight.
"I never knew Eko had this beautiful sight." Omote said.
"well, as you can see? it's adorable." Roland whispered.
Isioma and her boyfriend's boisterous laughter echoed from where they stood, just by the waterside.
"I bless this day, because I have found the love of my life." Roland said, as he pulled Omote to himself. She stiffened in his arms, averted her face when his lips tried to find hers again.
"Don't you want to kiss me." His deep voice rumbled.
Omote nodded.
"please kiss me." He hugged Omote to himself. He was surprised that she couldn't feel his stare. He was unable to remove his eyes from her. Omote's beauty had stalked his eyes, and all he wanted was to have her to himself all through the night.
Roland's phone rang and he took it from his pocket immediately.
"Excuse me." He said and placed the phone to his ears.
"Hello mom?" he said. He gasped slightly and the smile on his face disappeared within a microsecond. He hung the call and then narrowed his gaze to Omote.
"I have a meeting right now with my mom's company staffs. I will see you unfailingly tomorrow." He said hurriedly and grabbed out some dollars from his wallet. He took Omote's clutch purse and puts in the money, clipped it close and hands it slowly to Omote.
"Take a cab." he said, and kissed Omote softly on the lips.
"See you tomorrow." She whispered.
Omote watched Roland as he walked boldly with his tall height towards Isioma.
"Emergency dear. I have a meeting." He said to Isioma. He shook hands with isioma's boyfriend, gave Isioma a light hug and walked away.
Isioma walked hurriedly to Omote, they couldn't wait for each other, they walked towards each other, smiling widely.
"Do you like him?" Isioma asked excitedly.
"He is so handsome."
"And rich too. He came to me and said he needed a serious babe, I said okay. I had to call you."
"How did you know him."
"He is my ex husband's business partner. He became my friend too afterwards.
His parents are very wealthy." Isioma said delightedly
"I like him sha. He seems like a cool guy."
"Roland is every woman's dream." Isioma said as her countenance changes.
"Olamide will be coming back next month ."
"Who is that?" Omote asked.
"My husband. He will back soon with his old wacky self."
"Old? How old?"
"He is 69. I married him because he gave me everything I wanted." Isioma said sadly.
"Olamide has girlfriends everywhere." She added.
Omote thought to herself, that Isioma and Olamide were birds of the same feathers. She was surprise that Isioma complained about her cheating husband too.
"I understand my dear. Sometimes money can be so powerful that, you do what you are not supposed to do. I no come this world to suffer o." Omote said.
The two women stood by the waterside to talk more about themselves. Omote still stood her grounds of not wanting a serious relationship with any man.
*********
On her way home that night, she opened her clutch purse slowly and peeped through the money Roland gave her.
She counted them in whispers. Her heart trembled.
"two thousand dollars?" she whispered, so that the taxi driver won't hear her. Her heart was filled with joy as she planned on opening a big shop for her sister on the Island.

Tega pressed her hands against her temples, wishing her head would stop hurting. At last, hunger induced her to eat an egg and a biscuit dripping with butter and jam. She was pouring her second cup of tea when Omote opened the door.
"Diwor." Omote greeted excitedly. Tega was surprised, she couldn't remember the last time her sister greeted her Diwor.
"Vrendo. You look happy." Tega said weakly.
"My sister! God bless Isioma. He introduced to me, one guy that says he is looking for a serious girl. you won't believe this guy gave me cool two thousand dollars." Omote said, coats of sweats all over her body. She jumped on the couch excited. Tega's headache disappeared. She dropped the remains of the biscuit on a saucer, and stared amazingly at her sister.
"Just today alone? He didn't sleep with you?" Omote smiled delightedly.
"He didn't even see my brazier."
"Oghene doooooh! Omote you are so lucky. I have never had a boyfriend that has dashed me common two thousand naira before." Tega said softly.
"That is because you are always forming love all the time." Tega frowned.
"It is not like you are always loving correct guys, you always bring home okada men and poor barbers. When they finally make it in life, they dump you and go after classy girls, what pains me most is that you have refused to be classy."
Omote said shrilly, as if she was waiting for a moment to tell Tega all what has been in her mind concerning her love life.
Tega looked Puzzled for a moment, and then her face eased into a grin. She was so angry that it took a moment to find her voice.
"I no be your mate. I take full one year senior you. No talk to me like that o." she said calmly.
Omote took out the dollars from her purse, counted it and handed half of it to Tega.
Tega's eye widened as she collects the money.
"Find a shop. I will send some money to mama tomorrow morning to find a shop in the village too. Have you thought of what to sell?"
Omote asked in a low tone. Tears fell out of Tega's eyes as she smiled at the same time.
"I know the money isn't enough. I will add more next month."
Tega's headache disappeared, she became speechless and astonished.
She looked into Omote's eyes, and saw genuine concern reflected there.
"Thank you." She said tearily. She counted the money over and over again, and said thank you uncountable times. Omote rolled her eyes and Tega gave a deep laugh.
"My naughty sister." She said and threw the small pillow on her.
"May God bless you for me." She said again politely. Her words were for Omote, but her gaze was excitedly on the money in her hands.

There was one thing that was certain on Omote's mind: She was going to do anything to save her sister and her mom from being poor, she would rather remain poor herself.
Rowland was hopelessly in love with her, and she was ready to love him back now, and make use of the opportunity to change her life forever.
Months passed by, Tega opened a boutique on Victoria Island; while their mother opened a provision store in the village, all through Omote's financial assistance.
Her sister Omote had told her that her dresses should be exclusively for the affluence.
Omote and Roland had began a serious relationship.
Rowland's presence in her life had changed everything in a twinkle of an eye. She became more attached to him than before.
Omote had also thought of a business to do. But she wasn't sure of her Plans. She and her sister had moved to a bigger apartment in Ikoyi, so she needed to save more money.
******
Omote visited her sister's shop for the first time since the opening.
"Your shop is so big and beautiful. Your clothes are original too, you have good taste." Omote said, while going around, touching the dresses, the mannequins.
"You buy all these from Turkey?"
"Yes, at Istanbul." Tega replied softly.
On that day, Omote had bought dresses and accessories worth three hundred thousand from her sister. She paid in cash, and asked her to bring them to the house when she closes in the evening.
Roland drove to pick her at her sister's shop that evening. He drove her to his apartment at banana Island.
Heavy raindrops had just begun to fall as they reached the entrance to banana Island.
Roland wasn't seeing clearly, so he parked the car aside. His entire attention focused on her. She felt the heat of his gaze. Her heart was hammering in her breast like a wild thing, and she felt as if it might burst out of her body at any moment.
But before she could mutter a word, Rowland had started kissing her so passionately.
Omote watched him unbutton her denim shirt with ease. She felt herself unconsciously gravitate towards him as he had some strange powers over her.
He took her chin, and then turned her face up to his. "I am madly in love with you my sweetheart."
He looked deep into her eyes, and kissed her with all his heart.
Omote gave in her body and her soul. She wanted to tell him that she was a runs girl, the one who sleeps with big men for money.
She wanted to confess all the bad things she had done.
This man offered her everything, why was she still seeing other men?
She was thoughtful for a moment, almost troubled.
Rowland had already lost his heart to her, and she was aware that she was not in competition with any other Woman.
She held him tight to herself, and kissed him back.
The sound of her phone distracted the sweet, cold moment. She reluctantly checked who the caller was, and her heart trembled. It was Chief Akporo. She became Pensive, as she stared at Roland directly in the eye

Omote was afraid that Roland was going to find out that she was cheating.
Roland blinked up at her, his eyes dark and warm, his mouth quirking into a smile.
"If you don't wanna pick the call, off your phone." He said boldly.
Omote was surprised. She smiled in a relief. Roland didn't sound like the typical Nigerian boyfriend who would have accused her of cheating immediately she started staring at her phone without saying a word.
"See, I know that lots of men bother you a Lot. you are a beautiful girl. But I know you love me".
For a moment, Omote seemed quiet and speechless. She puts off her phone.
Roland stroked his throat, sliding her fingers around to his nape. His skin was warm, Omote became worried. She knew that missing Chief's call meant missing good money.
Roland wanted her, but her mind wanted chief Akporo's money. She had promised to spend the weekend at the hotel with him. For the first time after Kennedy introduced her to him, she was going to make love to him and get lots of money. She had been postponing their dates for over three months, and it was beginning to look like a big joke.
"Why are your nipples erect?" Roland asked bluntly.
"That happens when I am cold." she said. and then muttered " or....enh, sexually aroused."
She turned and looked at him, and he was quite amazed.
"Did you just say that?" Roland giggled.
Omote nodded. She wondered what was wrong with being sexually aroused and saying out.
Roland had not seen the worse of her crazy sides, he wasn't aware that Omote had done things he wouldn't imagine.
The rainfall reduced a bit, cars began to pass, giving horns and putting up their lights brightly.
Omote did her best to kiss him, his mouth was warm and she felt the stirring of something low in her belly, a pleasurable ache.
He turned his head and Nuzzled against her neck, his lips teasing, making her squirm.
"It's getting late. I have to drop you." he whispered. She was smoothing her hands up over his upper arms. She was clearly embarrassed.
She wanted to tell him that she wants to feel the warmness of his body all through the night, but she became incredibly silent.
She was angry.
Roland had never had sex with her before, and she wondered what he was doing.
He drove her speedily to her house in Ikoyi that evening, and gave her a soft kiss on the lips.
"Good night my love." He said.
Omote opened the car door sluggishly and walked away without turning back.
*********
The front door banged open, and Tega jumped guiltily from the sofa. She grinned at the way her sister stormed into the house. Omote immediately noticed the sterling steel ring on her sister's middle finger, but ignored.
"Is everything fine?" Tega asked, bringing out the pile of dresses Omote had bought from her shop.
"I don miss better money today because of Roland. I can't imagine how much Chief would have given me if I had slept with him this night. This man gave me raw two hundred thousand as thanks for coming, talk of if I sleep with him. na five hundred thousand don waka pass me be that na." she said bitterly.
"Wait. You mean you are still seeing Chief, despite all what Roland has done for you?" Tega asked amazingly.
Omote became quiet for a while. Then she looked at her sister's fingers again.
"where you buy engagement ring Tega?"
Tega began to smile delightedly.
"there is this guy that I have been seeing for three months now, he just came to the shop and proposed today o. we were just friends for a while o, before he came up with the idea of us dating." Tega said, excitedly looking at the ring on her finger.
"What does he do?"
"He is a taxi driver. Airport shuttle."

She turned to Tega so quickly, she was so shocked to hear the 'taxi driver' from her mouth. It sounded like the worse thing her sister had ever said in her life.
"You sey wetin?" Omote asked with a disgustful countenance.
"He is a taxi driver. He does airport shuttle."
"I heard you right Tega. you mean of all the well to do men in this world, it is a cab guy that you love? you have not considered Mama even? A cab guy will finish paying his house rent, buy food, take care of your needs and send money home to mama?"
She lowered her head for a moment, while she composed herself.
"We are just starting life."
"We? who and who are we Tega? you and the cab guy?"
Tega caught the gruffness in her tone, and raised her head.
"See, I am not as lucky as you are with rich guys. Chetachukwu and I will get married soon. We will work hard together and make a family."
"so" Omote said crossing her legs, "He is Igbo. And he is really a taxi driver for real?"
"Airport shuttle." Tega repeated.
"Airport shuttle or no airport shuttle, he is a taxi driver! And you are a first class graduate of history and international relations! or is he a graduate?" Omote yelled.
"He is not a graduate, does that mean he is not going to make it in life?
He loves me!"
"And you love him too?"
Tega stared down at her, her jaw muscle tightened, she refused to answer the question, and then angrily walked away.
A frown ceased Omote's brow. She took the remote control of the air condition and pressed a button. She began to close the windows so as to let the air condition go round the sitting room.
She sat down and admired the beautiful color of her brick wallpaper, the brown lamp that was kept by the large TV and the texture of her new lemon color couch Chief had ordered for her from America.
She walked slowly towards a large wall photo of her and Tega. Hugging themselves so tight and smiling wide. She wiped her eyes with her palm, although there was no tears. She ran her hands through a small portable frame that had their mother's Photo; she was wearing catholic women's organization uniform.
She admired the blue pearl necklace on her mother's neck. It was the gift she had bought for her on mothering Sunday some years back, with the money her former boss gave to her.
"I made banga soup and starch." Tega said. She had walked in without Omote's awareness.
Omote turned and looked at her sister in an irritating manner.
She shook her head and said nothing for a while.
"Leave me alone." she said in a soft tone and walked into her bedroom.
The thoughts of Roland ran through her mind, and she remembered that he had not called her to inform that he had gotten home.
Since the time she switch off of her phone, she had not touched it again.
She hurriedly went through her handbag, and searched through the wallets. She turned the handbag Upsidedown, but couldn't find it.
She felt a sudden chill as she remembered that she didn't pick it from Roland's car.
She became weak instantly

Omote was having more trouble than usual falling asleep all through the night. Her thoughts were jumbled with the fear that pressed in on her like a swirling tide of darkness.
Taking an exasperated breath, she opened her eyes and sat up, clasping her arms around her folded legs.
She was still thinking about her sister's engagement to the taxi guy. And then the thoughts of her phone popped up.
The only time in Omote's life she had to panic and feel disappointed in her own self came.
Morning came, and she had thought of how she was going to get her phone from Roland.
She was in the bathtub for a long time, with the water running on her face as she thought of her phone. She had imagined how Roland went through it and got sad at the tremendous sight of the conversations she had with other men.
Her tears mingled with the hot water, she told herself how foolish she was to forget her phone in a man's car. Not just a man, her lover.
She was exhausted when she finally turned the shower off, half an hour later. Roland was probably going through all the messages she had with her side male friends, and he was now going to know that Omote was not the woman he thought she was.
She thought of calling Roland with her sister's phone, but she was afraid, the tone of his voice might literally kill her.
She went to the kitchen to make herself a cup of tea. After she mixed the milk and the chocolate together, she stirred it for a while, almost forgetting herself.
She strolled to the sitting room stirring the tea gently. She sat on the sofa, falling on it. Something fell to the ground, it sounded like a steel. Omote bent down to check what it was, and then saw a silver coated steel ring under the sofa.
"Tega, who has this ring?" She asked aloud. She held the ring boldly in her palms.
Tega came out of the room, holding a big bible in her hands.
Her countenance changed when she saw the ring.
"He gave it to me. That is the real ring he gave to me. I changed it to my original sterling steel because I didn't want you to feel that he couldn't afford a good ring." Tega said softly.
"But now I know. You should never have said the truth anyways. So you know better thing abi? you know that sterling steels are better than cheap steels? but you steel want to marry something equal to a cheap steel." Her tone was sharp, her manner indignant, and her eyes sparked like a hammer on an anvil as she threw the ring on the center table.
Tega took the ring, stared at it for a while and went inside the room sluggishly.
Omote shook her head in disgust.
"I don't feel that it is my duty to enlighten a matured woman like you. At 30, you still think like a teenager." she muttered to herself.
The door bell rang, and Omote sluggishly walked towards the door. She opened it gently, and her heart trembled at the sight of Roland.
"Good morning" He said in a husky voice.
She closed her eyes, and opened it, looking startled when she saw her phone right on Roland's hand.
She realized that Roland said just good Morning, he didn't add sweetheart.

"Can we talk outside?" Roland asked softly, handing the phone to Omote.
His question almost tore out Omote's hearts, and the look of anguish in his eyes was even worse. Omote walked glumly behind him as he led the walk to where he packed his car.
"Are you alright?" Omote asked looking devastated. They were both looking devastated.
"Mom is sick. The maid said she has been rushed to the hospital. I was on my way to the hospital this morning when I saw your phone on the car seat. I had to bring it here as soon as possible." Roland said, putting his hands on Omote's face firmly.
"Pray for my mom baby." Roland said with a sigh.
Omote's heart melted. She stared at Roland straight in the eye, and held his hands tight.
"She will be fine." She said softly against his ears. He drew in a shuddering breath.
"I should be leaving now to avoid traffic."
He said, and kissed Omote on the lip. He got into his car immediately and drove off.
Omote stood there for a while, watching the car until she couldn't view it anymore.
She rushed into the house, and after she switched on her cell phone, she dialed Chief's number.
"Hello my Baby love. I am so disappointed. you know I am not happy with you at all?" Chief said, his voice was deep, and his accent more pronounced.
"oh chief. my phone is bad. I can't pick calls anymore with it, I am the only person who can call. I am sorry sir." She said girlishly.
"Can you see me this morning?"
"Yes." She responded excitedly.
"Meet me at Lagos Oriental Hotel. I will be there in an hour."
Omote hung up the call and immediately vanished into her bedroom. She applied a light make up on her face, and topped up a Mac ruby woo lipstick on her lips generously.
She heard the horn of a car from inside her bedroom, and ran out to see if it was a taxi. She knew that calling a Uber cab guy was going to keep her at home for extra twenty minutes, and she didn't want to disappoint chief in anyway.
As she pulled the curtain, she saw a Blue old Peugeot 504 packed at frontage. Her sister Tega rushed out from her room and ran towards the car. A young man dressed in a faded jean and black tee-shirt and was also wearing a baseball cap hurriedly came out and hugged Tega.
He was the owner of the Peugeot, and Obviously the famous Chetachukwu the cab guy who wants to marry her sister.
"My younger sister is inside, let's greet her ." Tega said aloud and excitedly.
Omote stared at Chetachukwu in a disgustful manner, until they got to the stair case. Tega laughed, falling on his neck as he cracked a witty dry joke.
As they stepped into the house, Omote sat gently on the sofa, she crossed her legs and waited for her sister to make the introduction.
"Omor, meet Cheta my fiancé."Tega said excitedly.
"Welcome bros." Omote greeted him sternly.
"Ah sister I have hear a lot concerning you, iwetago?
I am a humble somebody. I use to sell tire for ariaria. I jus say mek I come Lakos come hustle like a man, since the tire business no work. I be born aken Klistian. sometimes I dey enter lod plich of Kod mercies and kudness. you are welcome, iwetago?" Cheta said in a clear, anglicized local accent.
Omote fell silent, she was amazed. She wanted to clamp her mouth shut, but she knew it would do no good.

Cheta was not the same man Omote had imagined. Even though she was aware that he was just a cab guy who had never seen the four walls of a university, she didn't know he was going to be such an handsome illiterate, whose English accent could cause goose pimples on her body.
She left them at home, while she rushed to go see Chief at Lagos Oriental.
She had thought that even if their mother was not educated, she would never approve of Tega's marriage to Cheta.
She had wondered if it was ordinary, that a graduate would fall in love with someone who was not rich and educated. She had no idea what her sister loved about Cheta, apart from the fact that he had a fine face.
They were both in love with each other, and Omote was aware, she saw it in their eyes.
As she alighted from the cab, she gave the cab guy some money and walked into the hotel premises elegantly.
By the time she got to the receptionist, she felt a hot thrush rush into her panties.
After she passed through the receptionist, she walked as fast as she could towards chief's hotel room.
She knocked the door twice, and chief didn't allow her to wait an extra seconds, he opened the door.
"My baby love." he said and laughed out so loud, causing an echo in the large hotel room.
He hugged her tight and carried her to the bed.
"My chief." Omote called him softly.
It was going to be her first time of making love to chief. She had wore her favorite Victoria's secret pink lace panty, and her brazier had a purple and turquoise blue flower print on it; she had wanted to show all of this to chief.
Chief's eyes was steady on Omote's cleavage, she had started kissing him on the forehead, when another hot thrush rushed into her panties, she was feeling wet and quite uncomfortable.
"My chief, chief, please let me ease myself, I will be back soon." she said softly. Chief excitedly removed his clothes and threw them carelessly on the floor.
He finally removed his boxers and singlet, and went under the duvet, anxiously waiting for Omote to come out of the bathroom.
Omote's heart skipped as she saw red blood stains on her panty liner. Her menstruation had started, and she didn't remember what date it was.
She became sad. She knew Chief was not going to take such news, but she was going to tell him.
"Baby, come out o,I have a meeting with some clients this morning at the office." Chief said aloud from the bedroom.
Omote walked into the room with a sad countenance.
"Chief, there is problem o." She said in a panic whisper.
"Whatever the problem is baby love, I will give you money to sort it out." he boasted.
"My period just came."
" What is that?" Chief asked.
"It's menstruation. women's menstruation."
"Before nkor? do men have menstruation? " Chief said. He glanced at the ceiling, anger sweeping through him.
"Do you know how much I paid for this hotel? you are now telling that you are seeing blood? How many times have you disappointed me?"
He flew out of the duvet, wearing his clothes angrily. He counted some money from his wallet and threw it on the bed.
Chief gave her an angry look and walked out of the hotel room, a frown ceased his face.
