Deji sat in a position that he could see the K&M which was also an eatery opposite the one they were. On the spur of the moment he noticed a familiar figure. The figure was none other than Nike. She was siting alone at a table meant for two. Shortly a young man came to the table and dropped a tray filled with two bottles and whatever food they were serving there.
Since the man refused to leave and instead sat on the chair across Nike, Deji concluded they were together. For a second he wished he had seen the face of the man. Why does he need to? He asked himself. Perhaps if he had asked Uju, who had noticed how unsettled he was, he would have gotten an answer.
āāAre you okay?āā Uju asked after she was half done with her food, while her bossā plate was still untouched.
āāIām fine.āā Deji responded.
āāYou donāt look fine.āā She protested pointing at the food as if to say why-havenāt-you-touched-the-food?.

āāWell, I am.āā Deji confirmed and began to eat. He wasnāt sure if he could tell Uju about the drama in his life right now, albeit, he already filled her in about his epic love that broke his heart in Ife. The reason he hasnāt been profoundly involved with anyone till date.
āāGood. I need you to be, because I have an information that might interest you.ā Uju pronounced in an earnest disposition.
āāWhatās that?āā he asked finally bringing back his attention to her.
āāWhat if I tell you Peter Brian is here?āā
āāPeter Brian? Whoās that?āā
āāAmandaās 450k. The guy she.. .āā
āāYes. Yes. You mean that criminal is here?āā Deji asked, speaking in quick succession. His voice relatively high.
āāYou might want to keep it down.āā She advised also with a hand gesture.
āāOkay. We need to talk to him.āā Deji pronounced.
āāOf course. But hereās the thing, I saw him with the new marketing staff.āā
āāNike? She canāt be dating a criminal.āā He pronounced again with his eyebrow raised. The few stares he got was an indication his voice was far from being low. He made a motion to stand up.
