Sweet Stories: MR RIGHT - Episode 3 By Evelyn Ivy Ojo

When they entered the hall, he held her hand as if they were on a date. She quickly scanned around to know where Linda was in order to wish her happy birthday. She excused herself away from Tunde as she sighted Linda. Linda was in the circle of some people; Abike walked up to her and hugged her from behind. Linda startled, turned immediately and saw it was Abike.

…”Happy birthday dearie”…Abike said shouting over the loud music.
….”oh thanks hon”… Linda said giving her a hug…”but you came late”…she continued
…”my dear it’s a long story, I will explain to you later… please. Let’s take some pictures together”…
Linda beckoned on the photographer. After taking some shots, Abike excused herself as other friends were already coming around to exchange pleasantries. Her mind went back to Tunde, she was missing his company already. Well that was weird she thought, for a man she just met. She was awakened from her thought when someone tapped her from behind. There he was the man who had won her attention within few minutes.
…”shall we dance?”… Tunde stretched out his hands with a bow like a British knight reaching out to his maiden.
She quickly stretched hers too. After all she came out to catch fun. The DJ was good. He made her dance like she had never danced before with his hot selections.
The party ended around 9:00pm and Tunde offered to drop her home. They chatted some more as they journeyed to her house. She could not believe she was having a nice time in the company of someone she barely knew. It was time to call it a night as they arrived at her house. They exchanged numbers and bade each other good night.
Back in her room after showering for the night, she laid on her bed reminiscing the night’s event. She thought about Tunde; could he be her Mr Right? God, she just prays everything turns out well. Just then, she received a text on her phone. It was Tunde, he texted to let her know he had a nice time with and that he was looking forward to a formal date. She was tempted to text him back or even call but held back as she didn’t want him to feel he has caught a fish already. Who knows, he might even be a player. Sleep finally caught up with her as she continued to relive every moment in her dreams………
