Episode 13

On one sunny afternoon, I boarded a vehicle going to Iwo Road. As soon as my hurting buttocks sat on the back seat, I noticed a man staring at me. Well, I thought it was normal maybe because he was looking towards my direction and not me.

You know what?

The man kept staring at me. I was uncomfortable. I checked myself over and over again to see if anything was wrong with my appearance but I couldn’t fathom any.

“Nike, you are not exposing your cleavage, just calm down and focus on where you are going to”.I told myself.

When we got to Iwo Road, I told the driver I wanted to alight at “Iyano Iwo”. Little did I know that Mr man also wanted to alight at “Iyano Iwo”.

Immediately I got down, I started walking as fast as my legs could allow me not until mr man called me. Within me I was like “why is this man calling me”

On a more serious note, my first time of seeing him inside that micra produced a butterfly in my belly. (Don’t laugh at me ooo) Well, it was love at first sight. The man is just too handsome.

I discarded the butterfly in my belly because I thought he was a married man.

“Young lady!”He called.

I looked at the back and realised he was calling me.

I went to meet him. I greeted him casually. Then he told me he knew me before?

” You know me?” I asked surprisingly.

” How?” I managed to ask.

” Are you not Nike Adebola?” He said.

“Yes I am” I replied.

“Thank God I met you physically today. I have been praying to God for our paths to cross. And now it finally crossed. Immediately you entered that micra, my spirit man told me you are the Nike.” He said.

“Please, stop getting me confused. You said you knew me before? How did you know me because I have never seen this face before?” I asked.

“Well, Nike don’t worry. At least can I be your friend? As time go on, I will tell you how I got to know you. All I’m asking from you is just friendship and nothing more”. He said.

“Alright, that’s good by me.” I replied.

We exchanged contacts.

Along the line, we became best of friends. Our friendship was with boundaries.

After 3 months of being friends, I slept that wonderful night and saw him in my dream as my husband. When I woke up, I discarded that dream because I felt we were just friends and nothing more.

I thought I was dreaming according to the lust in my heart not until the feeling grew to the extent that I couldn’t control it.

He called me one day and I told him to give me some space because talking with him wasn’t solving the issue. He laughed at his end.

It isn’t as if I was not desperate to marry. I was eager to settle down soon but I was scared of marrying wrongly. I didn’t want emotions to blind my senses and that was why I wanted to be so sure if it was my emotions that was at work or not.

You know what?

I wasn’t my self within the space of time I didn’t talk with him. His love waxed strong in my heart.

One night after our normal discussion or gists, he broke the shell.

Yes, he told me God revealed to him in his dream about me being his wife in some years ago. And since then, he had always been eager to see me face to face not until he finally saw me.

He told me he intentionally wanted us to be friends while he went back to the secret place to pray unto baba God to reveal what He has revealed to him to me. He told God to open my eyes so that I could see him as someone beyond a friend but husband.

Which really came to pass.

In less than a year, we tied the marital knot.

Isn’t God good?

There were things I did while waiting for my man as a single lady.

Beloved, GOD HAS NOT FORGOTTEN YOU!

What were the things done?
