"Thank you so much, Eriana,
for rescuing me during my difficult times. You truly are a real friend,"
Mma expressed.
"That's what friends are for,
helping each other out. You've been a great help to me and our friend Adaora as
well. I’ll always remember the strong bond we've forged since we were
children," replied Eriana.
"My friend, I've been meaning
to mention that you still have the opportunity to achieve your academic
aspirations. With finances looking up now, enrolling in a part-time program
alongside your business could be feasible, especially since you have sales
assistants," Eriana suggested.
Eriana then inquired,
"Speaking of which, what about that friend who brightened your day over
the phone the last time I visited?"
"It’s nothing too serious, as
I’ve already mentioned. Although he brings me joy, I’m hesitant because I don’t
wish to repeat the mistakes I made at a younger age," Mma responded.
While they were conversing, a knock
on the door interrupted them.
"Let me see who it is,"
said Eriana.
Upon opening the door, she was met
with the sight of Ejike, her husband's best friend.
"Is your husband home? I've
been trying to reach him but his phone is switched off. We have new business to
discuss," Ejike stated.
"Please, come in," Eriana
welcomed him.
Mma and Ejike were both taken aback
by their unexpected encounter, with Mma feeling particularly nervous upon
seeing Ejike.
"Do you two know each
other?"
"Yes, she’s a friend of
mine," Ejike replied. "He's the friend we were just talking
about," added Mma.
Ejike, curious, asked, "What
were you discussing about me before I arrived?"
"Never mind," Mma replied
dismissively.
"What can I offer you?"
Eriana asked. "I'm good, thanks," Ejike responded.
"In that case, I'll leave you
two to talk," she said, then went upstairs.
Mma, curious, asked, "What
brings you here? Have you been following me?"
"Not exactly, I was just
following my heart, and it led me here, I guess," Ejike replied with a
smile.
