Moreni smiled at her dad before leaving the provision store, she chuckled thinking about how her dad said she's back to Ibadan again to steal his provisions. Where as she's always sending her dad money to fill the provision store. That's fathers for you.

"Agape"she suddenly heard a familiar voice and look up to see the last person she wants to set her eyes on

"Timothy!"she said frowning while Timothy chuckled

"You haven't changed over the years"Timothy said while Moreni gave him a once over

"Neither do you,you still look as ugly as before"Moreni said and Timothy chuckled darkly going closer to her,he whispered on her ear

"That's how ugly I was back then but made you moan my name,made your toes curl up in the world of ecstacy while your body writhe under me,do you still remember how it feels to have my hands on you or how it feels to have my finger playing inside you"Timothy said and Moreni pushed him away

"Get away from me,I swear I mean it"Moreni said and Timothy chuckled

"This is just the beginning Agape"Timothy said "what are you doing in Ibadan? I thought you live in Lagos now"Timothy spatted

"I'm here with my fiancé,more reason to let me be"Moreni said and Timothy bursted into laughter

"Fiancé? Does he know you're a murderer?!"Timothy said and Moreni's eyes went wide looking around to make sure that no one heard him

"Will you bring your voice down!"Moreni said frustratedly "I thought we are over this"

"We are over nothing!"Timothy spat

"It's so sickening to see how hung up in the past you're"Moreni said shaking her head "what's your deal with me?"

"To see you suffer"Timothy said without missing a beat

"I'd love to see you try"Moreni said before walking away. She tried pretending to be strong willing her legs not to shake. She thought about some mistake young people do and more reasons Kike will be living with her while studying. She finally arrived at the house and went inside her room to meet Jide laying on the bed. She carefully dropped the polythene bag she's holding

"How's your dad?"Jide asked while sitting down

"He's fine"Moreni replied climbing the bed. She wrapped her hands around Jide immediately sinking her head on his chest

"What's wrong babe?"Jide asked

"I just want to feel you"Moreni murmured while Jide absentmindedly pat her back. "I love you Jide. I love you so much"Moreni suddenly said and guilt ate Jide up. He knows he isn't supposed to be hurting Moreni knowingly or unknowingly to her, she have been a good woman to him. Instead of replying because he doesn't have the guts to. He raise her head up giving her a deep kiss to show how sorry he is.

"When are we going back to Lagos?"Jide asked breaking the silence

"I was thinking we should meet my aunt tomorrow maybe we can next tomorrow. Any call at work?"Moreni asked and Jide cracked his throat ready to lie

"Yes. My attention is needed"Jide said

"Oh okay. We can leave tomorrow after seeing my aunt. I'm sure my parents will understand"Moreni said and Jide smiled

"Okay that will be good"Jide said.

"Have you taken drugs?"Kike asked Favour over the phone

"No,I'm planning on going to the school clinic later"Favour said and Kike frown

"It's past six in the evening which time will you head to the school clinic?"Kike asked

"I will just go tomorrow"Favour said

"I don't understand how you hate drugs so much but still study pharmacy"Kike said and Favour bursted into laughter

"I don't have to like taking medicine before I study pharmacy and also it's not serious. It's just mild fever"Favour said and Kike snorted

"Mild fever my foot! The last time you told me same thing I came to your house to meet you burning. You better take drugs you know your exams is approaching"Kike said and Favour chuckled

"My bossy girlfriend!"Favour said and Kike smile shyly

"You sighed up for it"Kike said and Favour sighed

"I will never go back on that for sure"Favour said and Kike felt kind of guilty. She doesn't understand what she's feeling guilty about "Is your sister and her fiancé still around?"Favour changed the topic

"Yes they're. They might be leaving anytime soon anyways"Kike replied and Jide's face crawled up her image. Now she knows why she's feeling guilty. Having a boyfriend and also having a crush on her sister's fiancé is not something anyone will be proud of.

"Cool! At least you get to come to Lagos and I will see you"Favour said and Kike smiled

"Sure! I can't wait to see you"Kike said

"Same here"Favour said and Kike suddenly start hearing her name

"Kike! Kike! Mary! Mary!"she heard her mom call

"Okay good night sweetheart. My mom needs my attention"Kike says

"Good night love. Sleep tight"Favour said

"And don't forget to take drugs"Kike said before ending the call. She stood up immediately heading to the direction she heard her mom call her

"Kike!"she heard her mom call her again and knew she's in the kitchen

"Oya! Let's set the dinner immediately. The time is gone"her mother said as soon as her eyes landed on her. Kike got to work immediately setting the table. This time around her mother prepared semolina with melon soup.

She took the washing base to the dining room when her dad came to sit on his favourite spot,soon after her sister and her fiancé joined them while Kike was rounding up setting the dining table. Jide watched her carefully before remembering he wanted to avoid her and take his eyes away

Her mother joined the dining table and she sat down too while they said a short prayer before they started digging on the food,they ate quietly until Mr Rotimi decided to break the silence

"Morenikeji told me the both of you are going back to Lagos tomorrow,I thought you will be spending more time with us"Mr Rotimi said. Kike look up and her eyes and Jide's locked,Jide look away first

"Yes sir. My attention is needed in the office"Jide lied. He had taken one week break off so his attention is not needed but he can't start telling the family the real reason he wants to leave Ibadan. He can't start telling them he had start having ungodly thoughts about their last child while he proposed to marry the first

"Okay. Then there's no problem"Mr Rotimi said and silence fell on the table again while they ate quietly. Jide's eyes landed on Kike again and saw she's just wearing a night gown, still braless but her nipples weren't as visible as the afternoon he first saw them. His eyes landed on her thigh and saw her night gown had went a bit up showing her smooth thigh. He gulped looking away focusing on his food.

Moreni was busy eating when her phone screen lit up. She took her phone with her left hand unlocking it to meet a message from a strange number. She opened the message and stopped breathing momentarily

Hello Agape! I just want to let you know I have your contact,try blocking me and you will see me telling everything to your fiancé. Let's see after that if he is still ready to make you his wife. Save the contact babe we have a long run😉 I will contact you later. Kisses😚

From Timothy

Moreni suddenly loose her appetite,she instantly regretted going to her dad's store. She wondered who gave Timothy her contact,she had changed her contact after everything that went down between them. She always knew Timothy as someone who doesn't easily give up,and she knew she's in a deep mess. She needs to find a way to dispose him permanently from her life.

Moreni washed her hand standing up, Jide's eyes landed on her giving her a questioning look.

"What happened?"Jide asked

"I'm full. I'm feeling headache I want to go and sleep"Moreni said then averted her gaze to her parents "good night mummy and daddy"

"You barely eat much"Her mom said

"I'm okay mom"she faked a smile

"Okay dear. Take drugs for the headache"her dad said and she left the dining room without replying. She doesn't even have the power to

She went straight to her room laying on the bed, few minutes later Jide joined her on the bed

"What's wrong with you babe?"Jide asked

"I'm fine seriously"Moreni said and Jide rolled his eyes

"We been together for three years. You should know by now I know a lot about you"Jide said and Moreni sat up

"I said I'm fine!"She yelled out of frustration shocking Jide "can you just let me be please,excuse me just leave the room for me"

"You will tell me when you're okay"Jide said but was met with silence "promise me" he pressed

"Okay"Moreni quietly said while Jide stood up leaving the room. Moreni lay back on the bed crying her eyes out. She would never forgive herself if Jide found out everything,she cried her eyes out thinking about how childish she was then and she thought she was been smart not knowing she's only deceiving herself.

**

Jide was confused about what happened,he slowly walk to the house balcony. He saw Kike sitting while looking at the sky,he turn to leave while her voice stopped him

"You can join if you want to"Kike said and Jide's heart skipped a bit "it's a beautiful evening" she added

"Okay..."Jide trailed off while turning to join Kike. He sat down beside her giving them safe distance. He watched Kike's face while she watched the sky,the full moon illuminating her face and giving her the perfect edges. He suddenly wished he was a photographer so that he can capture that moment

"You're supposed to be watching the sky"Kike said giggling. Jide quickly turn his gaze from her almost breaking his neck while looking up at the sky.

"What's wrong with my sister?"Kike asked while still watching the sky

"I don't know, she's not talking. She just asked for pace"Jide said and Kike nodded still looking at the sky

"She will be fine. Sister Moreni is always like that when something tense her up,she will surely come around"Kike said and Jide smiled

"Look at the sky!"Kike suddenly say and Jide chuckled looking up

"After nursing I love astronomy"Kike suddenly said

"You love watching the sky?"Jide asked

"I love it a lot. It makes me relax and think. I think I think better when I watch the sky. Favour said I'm weird"Kike said chuckling

"Who's Favour,your best friend?"Jide asked

"Yes and also my boyfriend"Kike said and suddenly gasped realising what she said and locked eyes with Jide. Jide's heart beat accelerated "just between us,my parents and sister will kill me if they found out I have a boyfriend"Kike said and Jide chuckled

"Sure! Your secret is safe with me"Jide said and Kike look up at the sky again. Jide did thesame

"I heard when dad said you will be going to Lagos tomorrow,I wish the both of you safest journey"Kike said still looking up on the sky

"Thank you"Jide said and silence fell. Jide suddenly remembered Kike telling him about having a boyfriend,he suddenly frown his stomach churning in discomfort.

"What's your guilty pleasure?"he suddenly heard Kike asked and look at her.

"Guilty pleasure?"Jide asked

"Yes, what's your guilty pleasure?"Kike asked this time around her eyes locking with Jide

You!

Damn! You!

You're my guilty pleasure!

Shit!

MY SISTER'S FIANCÉ
