""You will have to follow us to the office and explain what happened to her" the security official told Bruce, things where. No longer colorful for poor Bruce as the whole world seemed to be ontop of him. "stupid foolish Animal" Helen could not hold her contempt for Bruce, she yelled louder " he wants to kill her" she shot a crushing stare at Bruce " hope you are happy now that she is laying unconscious on this hospital bed" "Helen calm down, yelling at this ram wouldn't help, lets just...." I was cut short by a faint cough "Jolie"! We all ran to her bedside and for a moment , Helen and I forgot about Bruce and concentrated on our friend Jolie who had just showed the first sign of life in the past 12 hours. "Doctor she just coughed" I bellowed excitedly at d Doctor as he hurriedly. Walked towards us.......

"Jega has really made my Val for me" I said to myself last week Saturday after receiving a call that the elections have been postponed and here I am today and yes its Valentines. Day and am about to unwrap my first gift of the day delivered to my doorstep by Jumia . "Ada your phone dey ring" My cousin informed me, I hurriedly dropped my package on my bed and went for my phone, I had left it on the Sofa out of excitement when d jumia delivery agent showed up , I picked up the phone" hello Jolie, howfa..happy Val" I said trying to hide my excitement " wetin b val? If na Joke. Stop am, I just called to Remind you about our "waka" today" Jolie detested d date 14 February for it was a day Jolie would never forget. "ok na, I go soon show ur side...love u too" I replied and hung up...i sunk into the sofa dejectedly for all of a sudden it felt just. Like yesterday the event of Feb 14 2014
*********************************
Jolie was bringing down the third Pot of delicacy on the stove , the whole hostel was already smarting from the intimidating mouth watering Aroma of the jollof rice and moi moi the one with seven lives as the. Yorubas call It, and now she has just set up another pot of sweet torture containing pepper chicken sauce. "All this for Bruce? Helen could not hide her displeasure, she never liked Bruce whom she describes as an "over protective. Jealous dictator" "well I don't. Care so long I get a bite not just a bite but a mouthful of all these" I said Half seriously but determinedly. Jolie packed the delicacies in a very beautiful 3 set food flask " you guys should help your selves to the rest, let me bathe and dress up, Bruce must be hungry and tired of waiting " Jolie ran excitedly to the. Bathroom. Whilst. Helen. And I pounced on the feast before Us.
Jolie and Bruce had been dating for Two years, they kept waxing stronger despite Bruce's aggression and stubbornness, people wonder how Jolie. Puts up with him, they quarrel like rival. Wives yet they love each other like Juliet and Romeo. Jolie. had just prepared a sumptuous. Meal for Bruce on this Val's day, she returned from the bathroom and hurriedly dressed up.
Jolie had this Captivating Beauty, she is near perfect except for her doggedness and this doggedness had kept her in her relationship with Bruce." See ya gals, ill b back tomorrow" Jolie packed up her Delicacies and left for Bruce 's House and she looked so beautiful in her simple Outfit, we wished her a blissful "quarrelfree" evening and feasted on, since we had no "Bruce" of ours to spend the evening with.

You will have to follow us to the office and explain what happened to her" the security official told Bruce, things where No longer colorful for poor Bruce as the whole world seemed to be ontop of him. "stupid foolish Animal" Helen could not hold her contempt for Bruce, she yelled louder " he wants to kill her" she shot a crushing stare at Bruce " hope you are happy now that she is laying unconscious on this hospital bed" "Helen calm down, yelling at this ram wouldn't help, lets just...."

"Doctor she just coughed" I bellowed excitedly at d Doctor as he hurriedly. Walked towards us, Jolie opened her eyes, we peered into her face like she was an alien who fell from mars "she will b fine , the bruises will heal soon enough" Dr Phil assured us whilst he scribbled something on a paper and gave me to give to the pharmacist...on that instant our hands touched....."Ada its not d right time for romantic chemistry" my head warned." he is so handsome,tall,young and...and..and" my heart engaged my head in a fierce argument.....
********************************
Bruce had battered Jolie, for reasons we known not till this moment, but the scenerio will surely be that they got into their usual quarrel and Bruce lost his senses and battered her till she lost consciousness.Bruce has been singing "baby am sorry" as if it were a hymn,and looking so repentant, but we all knew this was just the beginning..well they are still dating till this moment but Jolie hated valentines day from thenceforth.
********************************
"Ada open your gift make we see" my cousin snapped me out of my reminiscence.....just then I remembered my present, I hurriedly tore it open ...Alas! A Gold plated IPhone 6+ custom made with. A.D.A on it! " Dr Phil" was all I could exclaim! Just then a note fell off " Ada Be my Queen" it read...i smiled to myself knowingly and I knew this was just the beginning of a romantic journey*********
