âWhatâs the first thing youâll do when we get home babeâ Tunde asked âUm, let us say a warm bath, a hot cup of tea, then some ice cream later,â Bree answered amidst a chuckle. âWhat? Icecream, whatâs the point of ice cream after shielding cold with the warm bath and drinking some tea.â Tunde said while trying to control his laughter from erupting. âIts coffee or ice cream babe,â Bree said in defense âItâs okay nau, ah you sef... you too vex. Oya sorry. What toppings do you want, although we are out of nuts?â Tunde asked. âAnything we find in the fridge will do,â Bree answered It was a terrific downpour; the roads were terrible, and the water had stored in the portholes. Once or twice the vehicle entered these holes and Katerina suffered aggressive blows each time. Katerina has always been a powerful woman. But this journey proved more. In two weeks she housed, drove, and allowed Bree and Tunde bond and have the best vacation of their life. She never stopped them on the road except for the occasional tire change, which wasnât her fault, but the road our government refuses to service for commuters. âBabe, in 15 minutes we will be on Ajaokuta Bridge,â Tunde said amidst joy. âYouâre late Sir, you said we will get there at 8:00 pm and now itâs 9:45 pm in 15 minutes will be 10:00 pm, when are we going to get home? We should have just slept in Lokoja.â Bree retorted in worry. âWe talked about this babe, I have to be at work by 7:30 am, and I still have to finish working on those documents tonight. Iâll do my best babe, Ajaokuta to Abuja isnât far. Youâll be watching Twist of Faith on Zeeworld by 11:00 pm.â Tunde said. He took her hand and gave it a gentle squeeze, brought it close to his mouth, and dropped a kiss on it. Bree smiled. That was enough. As they approached the bridge... âBabe, is that light I see way over there?â Bree asked. âWho would be under this heavy rain at this hour,â Tunde said. Gradually they approached the light and the image holding it became clearer. âBabe, I have a bad feeling about this, can you not stop?.â Bree asked âItâs a checkpoint, we will have to,â Tunde replied. The car came to a halt. Tunde wind the car window down. https://www.instagram.com/p/CGzdR8psVGo/?igshid=toc8pf95l770
