As the Lagos bus rumbled in the Abuja station,Fathia settled into her seat,eager to leave the chaos,rumbling of the capital city for a few days,she just secured a major contract for her fashion brand and was headed to Lagos to meet with a potential investor.
As the train speed,fathia looked out the window, watching hills, green forest of the countryside.
Just as she was starting to relax,a commotion ensured from the seat across hers.A handsome young man,very well dressed was struggling to put his luggage in the back(boot)where luggages are kept.
Fathia,thought to give the handsome looking guy a hand,so she asked"Need some help?" she asked
The young man turned,flashing a cute smile"I think I've got it," he said,"and thanks for offering to help"
Fathia smiled lookinfg away,but her eyes kept drifting back to the young man.There seems to be something about him that seemed...familiar.
As the train went on,Fathia and the young man, whose name was Tunde started a conversation. They talked about everything from music to movies,to their individual work and business.
She was surprised at how easy it was to talk to Tunde.m,It felt like she had known him for years.
After a long talk,and Fathia asked if she could see how good he was with the guitar,as during their conversation he talked about it has what he's best at,so Tunde pulled out his guitar and began to play it and singing.Fathia was surprised her eyes widened,this is more than being talented,even co-passengers did not complain they nod along.
Fathia seems to be developing something for tunde already, just by watching him play, but she refused to accept what she thought it was.
As the bus pulled into the Lagos station,Fathia felt disappointed,she didn't want the journey to end,did she already like Tunde,No,she kept asking and responding herself,we just met some few hours ago,Ohh No,but sincerely she didn't want to say goodbye to Tunde and she did not want to make it obvious,she prayed Tunde would just ask for her contact or something.
As they were gathering their belongings and preparing to alight,Tunde turned to her and smiled. "Do you mind having a drink with me?" he asked. "I would love to continue our conversation,and get to know you more "fashionista" ,and they both smiled.
Her heart skipped a beat as she smiled,and responded"I will love to"
As they stepped off the bus and into the bustling streets of Lagos,Fathia felt a sense of excitement,she had no idea what the future held,did not know much about the guy,but still she felt happy ,just the way she feltt when she was signing her first contract,"I pray this is answered prayer "she said and sighed............
