Overwhelmed with emotion, she began to cry as she started recounting her ordeal with the gatekeeper.

With a heart laden with sorrow, Mma managed to narrate her experience.

"It's not your fault, Mma," Ejike offered comfort. He then inquired, "How is your son? I met him at your workplace years ago."

"He's doing very well," responded Mma.

Attempting to lift her spirits, Ejike suggested she eat something. Mma declined, expressing her desire to depart immediately.

"Why not inform my gatekeeper he has a child with you?" Ejike proposed.

"I want to leave. There’s no point in telling him now. He ruined my life, leading to my parents disowning me. When I returned seeking him, he was nowhere to be found," Mma stated angrily.

"All I need now is a decent job to support myself and a place to live," Mma added.

"We have an opening in my company for a receptionist, and regarding accommodation, you can stay at my place," Ejike offered.

"Thank you so much for the job offer. However, I cannot stay at your place," Mma respectfully declined.

Mma’s phone rang with Adaora on the line, "Where are you, Mma? I'm here with our friend Eriana. Let's go out together."

The reunion of the three best friends was nothing short of joyous.

It was a much-needed diversion for Mma, helping her to momentarily forget her woes.

Eriana proposed helping Mma start her own business and even offered to rent an apartment for her. This gesture greatly lifted Mma's spirits. Adaora then took her on a shopping spree.

Mma's inherent beauty made her stand out amongst her peers.

Ejike reached out to Mma on a Sunday evening.

"I've not had any communication from you regarding the job since you left. I hope everything is alright," Ejike added.

"I'm terribly sorry for not getting back to you sooner. I have decided to start my own business instead. Nonetheless, I'm truly grateful for your offer and your kindness during my difficult times," Mma explained.

From then on, Mma and Ejike struck up a friendship.

"It's been a long time since I've seen you this happy," Adaora observed during a visit to Mma's workplace, noticing her joyful demeanor.

"Welcome, Adaora. What can I offer you?" Mma greeted her.

"I'm fine, thank you. But do tell, who was that on the phone that had you all smiles?" Adaora asked curiously.

"Oh, that was just a friend I was chatting with on the phone, nothing significant," Mma replied lightly.

"Okay, oh," chuckled Adaara, as they both erupted in laughter.
