Happily, I hugged my co-actor after I was told that I will be sharing the screen with him so many times. He’s a star but doesn’t look like what I see on the television. He looks way better than how he looks on the television and smokes cigarettes as well. That may be weird but it’s one of those things that keeps me attracted to a man.
He’s so tall and lanky. I could not even read my script because I was thinking about him. I never thought that I could crush on anyone on that set because I was so keen on making sure that I get my lines right so the director won’t scream on me like he did on the previous day.
Are you ready to rehearse with me or I should give you more time?, he came to ask me. I was startled and I rememberd that I only shook my head instead of me to respond with my mouth.
We rehearsed well and made sure that I tried to be perfect. Who would want the director to scold her at the presence of her crush? No one so I gave it all my best.
The movie set lasted three days but I was to shoot for just a day. I’m not a star yet. Obviously, I’d be given a little role. I was supposed to go home after I was done with my part but I was carried away by the look of my crush and I didn’t want to leave.
And it’s a wrap, the movie director screamed after the job was done and I saw my crush coming towards me. I changed the direction of my face so he wouldn’t know that I was staring at him but I guess he saw me clearly. It was too obvious that one other actor said he noticed how I stare at my crush. Well, I didn’t care.
Would you like to go get dinner with me? Oh! my bad, my name is Tunde, he said to me.
Yes, I don’t mind going to have dinner with you and I’m Bisola, Tunde held my hands and we went straight to his car. While going, I could tell that we were the cynosure of that scene and I really didn’t want to get people talking about me but this way, I don’t think I could escape it.
Tunde and I went to a restaurant called Item7 in Ibadan, Nigeria. They have been hyped so many times by my friends but I was opportune to have their meal that night and it was worth it. After we had too much talks, we headed straight to his hotel room so he could pack his things and go home after he has dropped me at my house but something happened.
We had just a little amount of alcohol while he was packing his things and we were chatting but we don’t know how such thing came up. We kissed. I really liked him but I made sure that I resisted the urge of going further.
We were just meeting so I can save other acts for other days.
We pretended like nothing happened after the unexpected kiss happened. He wooed me right away and I said yes. I’m not a kid and I know what I want. I can’t pretend not to like Tunde. I got home late that night after my peers had gotten home earlier.
Immediately I got into my room, I called Temi, the best friend I made on that set and I told her about what had happened but Temi dropped a bombshell.
Why would you agree to date Tunde. I’m a big fan of him and there was a time when I liked him as much as you do but after I learned that he was married with two kids, I had to let go, Temi said.
What!, I screamed. I didn’t believe Temi until she sent some of his wedding pictures to me.
How come he never told me he was married?, I asked myself.
I stood right in front of my mirror which is as tall as me and started feeling like I just got duped. I was so sad and right there, I saw my phone ringing. It was Tunde.
I picked the call and pretended like nothing happened. We chatted for sometime and asked me when I would visit him at home. Since that night, I ghosted him offline and online.
Well, I crossed paths with him on another movie set but acted like nothing ever happened between us.
This kind of man will just put you in trouble for no good reason. Why hide your family to what end. I feel your pain
Yes ooh
I’m glad I ran for my life
awwww, sorry about that. What caught my attention the most was the Item7 you mention. Its also popular in Ilorin and I visit the place most time. Anyways, this was a nice read, well, temi saved you in a way I can say.
I still had another plate of item7 today😅
2-0 like that. I feel like having one like today

STOPThe best part was that you found out in time and that your friend didn't hide it from you. Of course, it was a shock to you because you didn't expect it.
Good story, thanks for sharing it
Regards @bisolamih
I didn’t expect it but there’s nothing I can do
This story made me remember a recent Nollywood movie FAME AND FURY.
Her first lover want her to quit her acting career which she had worked all her life to achieve just because he is very rich. She left him and dated someone who is not rich but she was scammed by this man. The man almost took her spot in the movie industry but thanks to a friend who revealed that the man was once married to her and took everything away from her. The lady took the smartest action and put him where he belong...
That's how ungrateful men are treated. You put them in there place.
Thank God you did not push it too hard before finding out the truth.🥳🤗🥰
I’ve watched the movie before
It’s really interesting
It’s a cinema class movie
Yeah😊😊
Men and secretive nature, I don't trust guys that look like they are married and be pretending that they are not.
When I meet a guy for the first time, my instincts would be observing and doing questions and answer at the same time. Till the trust will unfold.
I'm even glad you found out earlier if not what would have happened when you had totally fall in love.
Ah
I don’t trust men who look young ooh
Chai
He broke my heart😅
Ahhh this would be actually a terrible announcement for you. It’s not easy to cope the feelings of betrayal and heartbreak at the same time.
In this world we can expect anything frim anyone. Seeing our vulnerabilities people try to exploit them
Must have been tough for you when you heard that. I had my mouth open as I read that.
Beautiful story by the way.
I was wondering if you'll end up having a long term relationship but thankfully your friend Temi, was there to rescue you. Falling in love with a co-worker is not bad but may have its consequences 😃.. it's just a view from another angle.. it's good to know you're also not a lady who won't mind dating a married man..😊 Interesting writeup 👍👍👍 well done..
I was happy for you till I read the end. So what did he gain from hiding his family, I don't know why people hide their families.. Like what's the big deal?
Thank God you didn't go further else you would have regretted it.
That moment when you finally meet your crush. The vibe, the energy, the excitement, the bubbling in your stomach turned out to be a mare illusion.
I feel your pain girl!
I felt like the main character in this writing. Such disappointment.. whew!!
Thanks to God you found out earlier before feelings deepened.
Tunde the player. Man wants to enjoy his life 😂. I think it’s like a thing among actors to have such trait. But at least he should have cleared the air that he his married and not just take advantage of your likeness for him.
Omo!!! This is why it's good to open up on relationships because imagine if you had kept it a secret.... Happy for you baby girl.
Thanks to Temi for dropping the bombshell before it actually exploded. That saved you a lot of heartache and regret.
I doubt if any man that hides his family has good intentions for them.
