More than how we treat life sometimes, life tends to treat us better. Akanni might have made the biggest mistake of his life by embarrassing Athira, but life gave him an opportunity to make better his wrong. He couldn't think of how to approach her without getting dismissed. Then he decided to visit one of his old friends.

**********************************************************

Athira hadn't thought about what to do about the letter, even with all the embarrassment that she got. She decided to fill her memories with better things, so she picked up her phone and placed a call to her closest friend.

*Phone ringing*

Tima: Hey Athira

Athira: How have you been?

Tima: Am good, this one that you call me today; hope all is well?

Athira: You have started again with your funny jokes, why don't you just listen to what I have to say first?

Tima: It isn't my fault, you don't call often unless you are bored.

Athira: Coming from someone who is always busy? Where are you joor?

Tima: Am with my fiancé, or do you want to come?

Athira: Hold on, which fiancé again?

Tima: It's Bode, the one I came with during Dapxon's wedding last year.

Athira: Oh! Yes, the one with beards?

Tima: Na you sabi that one oo (only you know that), at least he has a good job and he drives a Range Rover Sport.

Athira: Okay then, text me the address.

*Call drops*

"This should be fun," Athira thought.

*Phone beeped - message entered*

***********************************************************

*Phone rings*

Bode: Ologbeni (Mister man), I missed your call.

Akanni: Yes, where are you?

Bode: I am at home.

Akanni: Are you free? I need to discuss something with you.

Bode: Sure, but my girl is around.

Akanni: No problem, it will only be for a few minutes.

Bode: Okay... wait a minute, Tima's Friend just called; why don't we just go out?

Akanni: This is much more important, let's forget that.

Bode: You always complain of being busy, and now it's important issues right? I am not taking any excuse from you today.

*Call drops*

Bode is the only friend that is intelligent enough to give a realistic and meaningful advice. Akanni thought over it and decides to give in. He picked up his phone and set to leave.

To be continued...

Is this fate?

What will be the outcome of this?

Will they meet?
