It was a long journey down memory lane, one which took him to that evening in March 2011, about a year ago. He had been reading through the comments on a Facebook post a friend of his had commented on, when he saw the face. He had felt something he could not explain seize him immediately. And then, he had clicked on the name, Kemi Adeniyi, and sent a friend request before he realised what he was doing. The five days he had waited before the acceptance message popped up was spent fantasising on what would be. Would she be thoughtful enough as to cast as much as a glance at Facebook friend request box? Would she even accept his friend request?
Ola had had no misgivings about what he wanted from her. He had not sent the request just because he wanted to be a mere social media acquaintance. He wanted more. Never in his life had he felt such. Even the thought that she might not be available did little to cross his mind.
So, when five days later the message had popped up, Ola had been disappointed when Kemi's relationship status read “Engaged”. But she had been all over his mind and head so much that he could not back out. He had found it practically impossible to get her out of his thoughts. The more he had tried to push her out of his mind, the more thoughts of her had hung on. It had taken him another two days to convince himself her relationship status might just be a calculated ploy to get guys off her back, after all. The 'hi' he had left in her inbox had gone unnoticed for days. But just when he had been about concluding she would never return his 'hi', fate had smiled on him. They had got chatting from then on and soon the conversation had shifted to phone calls and more.
It had been no easy feat for Ola to break down Kemi's defences, as she was just smarting from a failed relationship back then. And it had taken dedicated patience to get her to give in. Ola's resilience had been rooted in his firm conviction that his future lay with Kemi. There had been no other way to explain falling in love with her the first time he saw her picture. There had to be more to it, he had convinced himself.
And truly, as soon as she had said yes, Kemi had shown enough to convince Ola she was passionate about the relationship as much as he. What about the seamless effort with which Kemi had bonded with his siblings the few hours she had only stayed that day. He remembered what Kola, his immediate younger brother, had said earlier that evening about seeing a 'housewife material' in Kemi. And as Kemi snuggled up to him in her sleep, Ola could swear their love was made in heaven.
Ola lowered himself fully into the bed, planted a kiss on Kemi's lips, thanked God again for bringing her his way, pulled her closer and closed his eyes. His sleep that night was characterised by sweet and lovely dreams.

Somewhere, a distance of about five kilometres away, Bukky Roland could not sleep. Her mind was occupied by thoughts of Ola Johnson. What else would she do to make him realise she wanted him? She knew her advances were obvious enough for everyone in Yellow Vine Ventures, the auditing firm where they both worked, except Ola himself. Or could he just be feigning ignorance deliberately? The only thing she knew she had not done was confess his feelings to him. There was no shying away from the fact that she had the hots for him. There had to be a way to get him to look her way.
Bukky began to fantasise about what it would feel like to be in Ola's arms that night. She imagined how his lips would feel on hers. She could feel the erotic fire in her begin to gather momentum as her right hand found its way to her breasts. She fondled and caressed them, and before she could stop herself, her left hand made its way down to her panties. And it did not take too long before she erupted in ecstasy.
