The countdown has just begun. This is the only time we seem to be truly awakened that the days of the year doesn't stop counting. August folds up to usher in the Ember months. You hear people say ''oga o, this year is almost gone sha'' as if the year wasn't going before now. Doubled profit making is the goal for the latter part of the year as this.  (Singing) Ember ko ma ko wa l'ebi lo Ember ko ma ko wa n'ile lo Osu ''BER BER BER'' la de Baba l'oke so wa ninu ibanuje Ember ko ma ko wa n'ile lo The lines above simply translate ''God keep our homes and extended families safe during the Ember months.'' I can't say specifically who sang that song but It's been popular ever since I was young especially at this time of the year. Very soon, everyone will start singing this Good Women song too: ''Odun n lo s'opin o baba rere (the year is going to an end good Father) F'iso re so wa o t'omo t'...

Delete that carnal thought of yours o, nothing happened last time and I still had my cloth on. It was a whole week of fun and adventure. We toured the whole of Abuja, it was only Aso Rock we didn't enter😂. We had dinner on Friday with two of his closest friends and I felt at home with the way he had introduced me and respected me. Just in that week, I knew I almost added 10 pounds because I was spoilt. Kilishi was always available to eat too. The Saturday night which was my last  night, we couldn't resist the urge and so it happened. Maybe cos of the sports I do, my hymen had been broken so, no blood came out but he obviously knew it was my first time. ''Tolu, I'm so sorry this happened. You see I never intended it. I'm sorry I made you break your NSBM (No Sex Before Marriage) resolution.'' I just kept staring into the space but I realized there was no sense of guilt in me. Maybe because he was someone I so much love and cherish. I told him there was no...

As we drove, I noticed the FCT isn't as clumsy as Lagos is. Everywhere looked so good enough to be called Abuja. Sitting in the car, I remembered a post I had read on Facebook about Abuja guys who only have cars but no shelter. The post goes on to say these guys sleep most times in their cars and then cook up sugarcoated stories for the well-to-do ladies they meet so they can house them for a week or more. Then if their excuse doesn't add up to the lady again, they move out in search of another prey too. I saw fine cars drove by with fine guys or rather men behind the wheel and I was like ''na dem o''😂 I wasn't looking at Alfred, I was just so fascinated about the urban area. I was feeding my eyes really seriously. He was playing a foreign song but on a very low volume, I didn't even know if it was Drake or Justin Beiber. Wetin concern local pikin? Me I was just vibing to the rhythm. I'm not a fan of all these country music jere, I just like the one...

 Journey to Abuja on air made me forget everything at school and at home. Remember I didn't inform anyone. I got everything I needed to fly on my mail and I did as required. He bought a business class return ticket for me and the date showed I was to spend a whole week. OMG! You can't even understand how ecstatic I was, travelling to meet my boyfriend by air, to a place I've always been fascinated by plus the huge amount of money he sent so I could fix one or two things for my journey. I didn't want to look like a poverty stricken lady, so I had to fix my hair before I would travel that Monday morning. I know I was small but I had to just look mature to the people he might be introducing me to as his girlfriend because I obviously don't want them to categorise me as one of these underage girls. Never! Just before I travelled, I meticulously and painstakingly picked the cloth I would wear there. All the stuffs in my wardrobe are too ''studentish'' and...

When his flight landed in Abuja, he called to inform me and told me he couldn't wait to be with me any time soon again, I confessed same immediately. The relationship was in it's 15th month and he's still the same guy. He's so truthful and he calls me every morning sometimes when he's dressing up for office, he puts the phone on loudspeaker and he continues with whatever he's doing or in the car at times. There's this ecstatic way he converse with me,  ''Hello mine❤ Good morning'' I have a standby response to that ''morning darling, guess you slept well?'' ''Not really, I'm feeling a slight ache in my head and its unusual, I'm thinking of calling them at the office to inform them I might be absent today'' ''Oh, sorry dear, but you slept early last night, what could have been the cause? have you tried using anything when you woke up?'' ''I've ordered a breakfast menu and it wo...
