This is a letter of expression from me to you.

Although words can never communicate in the love language, my heart and soul would. But I hope you find this letter worth stealing your attention.

I can not tell what the future holds for us, but I know I see you in my future.

I fear the unknown, but I know your presence in my life brings nothing but beauty to the uncertainty of tomorrow.

A time is coming when I will make certain for sure that you Wake up to a dozen kisses, bright smiles and butterflies in your wombs.

You may be far from perfection, but as long as your smiles keep me restless for days, I will pick you over perfection.

I am not certain of your insecurities, but I want you to know that beyond that black skin, you are real. Beyond that light skin, you glitter. Beyond your body shape and size, you exist for my existence to make sense.

I can't wait to fill your womb with amazing kids, your eyes with tears of joy and your soul with eternal peace.

Estaré ahí para ti de mil maneras

(complete me by Simi)🎶🎹"

"Bisola rounds up her conversation with Bimpe and Kemi."

Mrs B BALOGUN

(She turns to Bimpe)

Why do you want Michael so badly?

KEMI

Probably the same reason why you want Dr Chidi for Temi.

Mrs B BALOGUN

Hmm

So you talk?

KEMI

Of course, when necessary.

Mrs B BALOGUN

Why did you abandon your family?

KEMI

I didn't abandon my family

My only link to the Adebayo's is Awelle.

My daughter deserves a better life, so I chose financial stability over loving my daughter in poverty.

Mrs B BALOGUN

So you are doing this because of the Money, not because you want to be with your daughter?

KEMI

I'm doing this for my daughter.

BIMPE

Enough of the interrogation section. The most important thing here is that we all get what we want.

Mrs B BALOGUN

Of course, I understand. But before you leave, you both must realize you are dealing with a Balogun. I do not need to say much to prove our capabilities.

BIMPE

(She gets up to leave)

Threatening us is very unnecessary, Mrs Balogun.

(She turns to Kemi)

We should leave now.

KEMI

(She turns to Bisola)

Where is that sound coming from?

Mrs B BALOGUN

My first daughter probably decided to dust her Piano today.

BIMPE

Hmm

Never did I imagine a Balogun would be that broken and ordinary.

Mrs B  BALOGUN

What do you mean?

KEMI

We will be taking our leave now.

|The Sound Room|

"Eniola sits in front of her  Piano."

ENIOLA

(She voices out the lyrics as she blends the sound of the chord shapes to align with her emotions )

"My baby said she hungry, I give am food

I tell am I will do anything for you

But a stranger said please sir, I nor get shoe

I look am like this say who are you?

Cause I forgot how to love

The way you asked me to

Remind me, remind me how

To lo-lo-lo-lo-lo-lo-lo-love

To lo-lo-lo-lo-lo-lo-lo-love🎶🎹"

"Taiwo walks into the sound room."

TAIWO

(He smiles at Eniola)

I'm not surprised you even sound better than the last time you sat in front of your Piano.

ENIOLA

Do not flatter me, Taiwo.

Are you guys leaving now?

TAIWO

Yes, we are.

ENIOLA

Where is Maria?

MARIA

(She walks into the room in excitement)

I'm here.

ENIOLA

I'm not an everyday emotional being, so I will only say this once.

Take care of yourself; I will miss your presence in the house; call me if you need anything; and lastly, the day your grandmother complains about you not calling or reaching out to her, I will eat you alive.

MARIA

(She smiles at Eniola)

I will miss you too, ma.

Don't worry; I will always reach out to granny.

(She turns to Taiwo)

I will be in the car.

TAIWO

All right, dear.

(He gazes at Eniola)

ENIOLA

What is it?

TAIWO

Don't tell me you grew soft overnight.

ENIOLA

This is me, too, TaiwoI

Sometimes I rather cling to my other personality.

TAIWO

Hmm, but I like you more this way

ENIOLA

Aww, I wish I could say the same.

I guess it's because you are a soft ass yourself

[She turns to play her Piano]

TAIWO

What happened, Eniola?

You can always talk to me, my love.

ENIOLA

I'm fine, Taiwo.

Don't worry about me.

"Rukky walks into the room."

RUKKY

(She turns to Taiwo)

How far?

When una go enter road?

TAIWO

Now, oh

I was trying to persuade this young Lady to tell me what was bothering her.

RUKKY

You, of all people, should know that getting Eniola to talk about her demons is more difficult than Nigeria becoming free from tribalism

I for like join una o

But I haven't had my bath.

TAIWO

I doubt if we can wait for you.

RUKKY

It's fine

I will ask one of the drivers to take me.

TAIWO

All right, I have to go now.

Eniola, take care of yourself.

(He walks out of the room)

RUKKY

(She sits beside Eniola)

I have some news.

ENIOLA

Tell me it's something positive

(she grabs Rukky's hands)

RUKKY

I don't know, Eniola

The good news is that we know where she is

The bad news is that she's in critical condition.

ENIOLA

Is she in critical condition?

What happened?

RUKKY

Unfortunately, she is seriously sick

She was diagnosed with leukaemia a year ago.

ENIOLA

Where is she presently?

I want to see her.

RUKKY

Relax, Eniola.

You will see her, but we have to do it smartly.

I told my uncle we wanted to help but under one condition.

You must be granted access to the child.

ENIOLA

I don't care about that right now.

I want to make sure she is fine.

RUKKY

You have to care, Eniola.

Your daughter needs you in her life. You have to secure your place in her life.

I know this is hard for you, but I insist we wait for her parent's feedback.

ENIOLA

What if they don't agree?

(Tears roll down her eyes)

RUKKY

I see no reason why they wouldn't.

It's the child's life at stake here. ⁦‪

Leukaemia is a delicate kind of cancer; we both know its not cheap to treat

We have the Money and resources.

ENIOLA

All right, I will wait.

But just for a few days.

RUKKY

Come here; everything will be fine, my baby.

Stop crying.

(She hugs Eniola)

"Bisola walks into Ayo's Chambers."

Mrs B BALOGUN

Where are you going?

Mr A BALOGUN

I and some party members will fly to Delta State for the presidential campaign in Asaba later today. I must show my support, especially now that we know Lolade is with AUG Party. We can't take any chances.

Mrs B BALOGUN

Didn't you see the need to pre-inform me?

Mr A BALOGUN

Bisola, I'm sorry.

A lot has been on my mind lately.

I know I should have informed you early, and I sincerely apologize.

( He wears his designer's shoes)

How do I look?

Mrs B BALOGUN

Please don't ask me, Ayo.

Before I forget, don't you think you should talk some sense to that your daughter?

Mr A BALOGUN

Eniola will be fine.

Youths go through a lot too.

Just give her some time, my dear.

Mrs B BALOGUN

I am not talking about Eniola.

Temilade is slowly slipping away from our hands.

Mr A BALOGUN

If this is about that Michael guy, that is Temilade's choice.

You are just upset that Temilade decided to act outside your influence and control for the first time in your life.

Sit on your ego Bisola, or you may lose her love and respect for you

Mrs B BALOGUN

So it's my fault that she is acting this way?

Mr A BALOGUN

Hmm

Bisola, I do not want to argue with you.

Temilade is an adult. She is no longer that kid that sucked on your breast.

Let her decide what is best for her.

Mrs B BALOGUN

So I should let her keep a relationship with that Michael?

That is not possible, Ayo.

She deserves better!

Mr A BALOGUN

It's her life, Bisola.

Abeg nor stress me this afternoon

I have better things to do than to decide who Temi should be with or who she should be with.

Abi na you won marry man for her?

Please, drop this conversation.

( He gets up to leave)

Mrs B BALOGUN

So that is all you have to say, abi?

Mr A BALOGUN

See you tomorrow, Bisola.

(He walks out of the room)

"Micheal smiles at Temi as he holds on to the steering wheel."

TEMI

(She smiles back at Michael )

What is it?

Please don't stare at me that way.

You are making me shy.

(She covers her face with both her palms)

MICHAEL

Are you serious?

You better get used to it because this is the face you will wake up to every Morning.

TEMI

I know, but I will need time to adjust.

You know what? I'm not shy again.

(She sluggishly drops her hands on her lap)

MICHAEL

(He switches attention between the road and temilade's face)

Shyness is written all over your face, young Lady.

You can't even look into my eyes for a minute

TEMI

Oh God, Michael, stop.

(She places both her Palms on her face again)

"Simi ft Adekunle Gold (By you) begins to play from speakers."

MICHAEL

This woman.

Wow, you listen to Simi?

TEMI

I'm crazy about her music.

MICHAEL

I'm glad we took Awelle to school in your car.

Please give me your hand.

(He  opens his palm to welcome Temi's palm)

TEMI

(She slowly drops her left palm on his)

Mina banjo ohh

Má pàdà lẹyìn mí baby

Even se′ your people have been searching for you

You can rely on me baby

I will make you cry in happiness

Will you forgive me for the happy tears?

Just know I'll always be right there🎶

MICHAEL

You know I go stand by you

I go stand by you

Anything you do, I′ll be right by you

Torí náà kòsì anybody layé

I'd rather spend my life with

Baby mi I go stand by you🎶

TEMI

No, Michael!

What are you singing?

You are faster than the song.

(She laughs out loud)

MICHAEL

Abeg leave me oh

Na, where I know, reach be that.

TEMI

Please just stop.

And don't ever speak Yoruba again

You sound like someone who is about to bite his tongue.

Oh God, my stomach hurts

(She tries to contain the urge to keep laughing)

MICHAEL

Dey laugh me oh I not blame.

Na me fuck up

(He frees his palm from hers)

TEMI

Oya, I'm sorry, babe.

Don't mind me.

(She drops her head on his shoulder)

MICHAEL

So talk to me, Temilade.

Is everything all right?

TEMI

What do you mean?

MICHAEL

We agreed to meet at my place today, but you arrived earlier than I expected.

It looked like you were running from something or, would I say, someone.

TEMI

(She attempts to change the topic of discussion)

When will Awelle be closing from school?

MICHAEL

By 3 pm. Mama will pick her up.

Back to the question I asked.

Don't think I will let you off the hook just like that.

TEMI

This man.

All right, I will tell you.

It's my Mom. I don't just get her sometimes.

It's like she wants to control every aspect of my life.

MICHAEL

Is this about her disapproval of our relationship?

TEMI

Yes, but not just that.

She and my grandfather always want to make the decisions for us. I know I acted in ways I shouldn't have today, but I just couldn't take it any longer.

As if forcing Taiwo to marry someone he is not in love with is not enough, They want to decide on my love life.

MICHAEL

Relax, my dear.

Everything will be fine.

We must prove to them that what we have is worth fighting for.

TEMI

I hope that with time, they will understand.

By the way, where are we even going?

MICHAEL

I don't even know

I left Festac without even knowing.

I will make a U-turn now.

TEMI

Yeah, you should.

Before we loss for Lagos oh

|ECO HOTEL, VICTORIA ISLAND, LAGOS|

"Lolade meets up with Mrs Adesoji."

LOLADE

(She reached out to one of the waiters)

I asked for red wine, not Champagne!

MRS ADESOJI

You must have mixed up her order with another table.

Please rectify it.

LUCKY

I'm sorry, Ma.

I will bring red wine.

(He picks up the Champagne from the table)

LOLADE

You know what?

Don't bother, but next time, pay close attention to orders.

Not everyone will tolerate your gross mismanagement and inefficiency.

Mrs ADESOJI

Lolade!

LOLADE

What is it?

It is not pleasant at all!

Mrs ADESOJI

(She turns to Lucky)

You can go.

LUCKY

Thank you, Ma

I sincerely apologize

(He bows and takes his leave)

Mrs ADESOJI

Lolade, there was no need for all of that.

People make mistakes.

LOLADE

I don't care!

There are a lot of exotic hotels in Lagos, but we came here because we expected more from them.

Mrs ADESOJI

Whatever.

I expected more from the soon-to-be vice President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria.

LOLADE

(She smiles at Mrs Adesoji)

My instinct tells me you are about to concur with my agenda.

Mrs ADESOJI

As much as I hate to admit it, I think eliminating Mrs Alaba is the right thing to do.

LOLADE

Leave that to me

I will make it painless for her.

MRS ADESOJI

I believe you wouldn't let us down.

I will take care of Mr Achebe.

LOLADE

Do you think it will be easy to convince him?

Mrs ADESOJI

He has no choice, my dear.

You are the next vice president of this nation

I have the core of The AUG at the tips of my fingers; I own their lives.

LOLADE

Your words sound too good to be true, but I have much faith in them, not because I chose to but because I witnessed your impeccable influence when you introduced me to your party.

Mrs ADESOJI

Do not flatter me, Lolade.

LOLADE

Let's toast to our victory ahead of us.

(She stretches her glass of Champagne towards MRS Adesoji)

Mrs ADESOJI

To our victory ahead

(She softly jams her glass with that of Lolade)

I missed you.

AYOOLA

I missed you too, my love.

I know I promised you we would hang out after your wedding. I'm sorry that I haven't kept to your promise.

SIMI

It's fine, Sister.

I know you are busy with the company

(She wraps her left arm around that of Ayoola)

AYOOLA

Even still, a promise is a promise.

What are you doing this weekend?

SIMI

I don't know yet.

Though I'm here till Friday.

Taiwo took Maria to School this Morning.

Dr SHADE

Ehen I knew it.

You wouldn't be here if you had your lollipop in your hands.

SIMI

Oh, Mother, don't start,  Ejor

AYOOLA

By the way, why did he have to take her to school himself? Can't one of the drivers do that?

SIMI

I believe you have met Taiwo, Sis.

That guy is too kind to be human.

Sometimes he acts like his superman forgetting that he is a Balogun.

Dr SHADE

That is why he is my favourite of all of them.

He is different.

SIMI

Where is father?

AYOOLA

You missed him, dear

But he should be back before sunset.

Are you hungry?

SIMI

Very!

"Michael and Temi prepare dinner together."

TEMI

I think the soup is ready.

Come and try it.

(She servers little quantity into the cooking spoon)

Be careful; it's hot.

MICHAEL

It smells so good.

TEMI

Try it first. Don't be so sure yet.

MICHAEL

Wow, Temilade, this is nice!

Who taught you to make egusi this way?

TEMI

You don't have to know.

MICHAEL

Please, tell me.

I want to know it tastes so good. I love the balance in the ingredients.

TEMI

Are you sure about that?

Or you love me too much to tell the truth?

MICHAEL

I'm serious, babe. This is great. I have no reason to lie to your face, na.

So tell me, who taught you how to cook?

TEMI

All right, I will tell you.

While I learnt most of what I know from Nanny, Maria taught me how to make egusi soup.

I know it's funny but don't laugh at me.

MICHAEL

(He laughs out loud)

I'm sorry, forgive me.

Please, work on that facial expression.

TEMI

I knew you were going to laugh

(She walks out of the kitchen)

MICHAEL

My love, I'm sorry

Don't mind me; I was pulling your legs.

(He follows her to the sitting room)

TEMI

Leave me be, Michael

(She folds her hands and tightens her face)

MICHAEL

Temilade, I haven't tasted egusi as good as yours in a long time.

I'm sorry I laughed. I swear it had nothing to do with Maria teaching you how to cook. There is nothing wrong with that. Abuka's younger brother taught me how to cut coconut. It's not something to be ashamed of

TEMI

(She turns to Michael)

Then why did you laugh?

MICHAEL

Because of your facial expressions

Look, you are doing it again

(He smiles)

TEMI

(She blushes )

Stop it, Michael

Thank you.

MICHAEL

Thank you, too, Temilade.

You may be far from perfect, but I chose you over perfection.

TEMI

Thank you, Michael

I do not know God's plan for you, but I know you exist for my existence to make sense.

(She sits on Michael's lap)

This is the moment they were both waiting for—when they could communicate how they feel with their hands and bareness.

Michael drops his lips on hers as he sluggishly takes off her gown.

Temi buttons down his dark vintage finally, her hands had full access to his ebony chest.

He drops her back on the couch and slowly unhooks her purple bra.

"Please, I want your tongue on my nipples, Temi said in an erotic dead-to-talk tone."

Michael slowly drops his tongue on her brown nipples. He could feel them responding to the presence of his saliva in alliance with the warmth of his tongue." 

Temi zips down his trousers as she fearlessly makes her way to his pride with the assistance of her trembling hands.

"Wow, Michael, this is big, Temi said."

He smiled and said to her;

"We can stop if it scares you"

No, don't stop, Michael. I want you inside me, she said.

Michael slowly lifts her legs and teases her flowers with the tip of his pride.

He slowly attempts to gain access to her dignity.

He notice that Temi is shivering

" Are you okay? Michael asked."

"I think so; please be gentle. It hurts a little bit, Temi pleaded."

"Mrs Adebayo and Awelle walk into the Compound."

MICHAEL

Mama is here already; dress up!

(He stands up and pulls himself into his jean trouser)

TEMI

Are you sure she's the one?

(She wears her bra)

MICHAEL

Yes, it's her

That voice belongs to my mum.

(He buttons up his vintage)

TEMI

What if she catches us?

MICHAEL

She wouldn't. Don't worry; I locked the door.

Go to Onyinye's room with the rest of your things

I will tell her you decided to take a nap there.

TEMI

(She rushed to the room)

"Michael unlocks the front door."

Mrs B BALOGUN

All these while, you have been avoiding me, but now you suddenly want to talk.

BAYO

Mother, don't play the victim card with me.

You and Auntie Lolade planned that accident. No matter how you try to twist my head around it, I can't get the idea out of my head that the Mother who brought me into this world killed my brother's Mother

You have no excuse, Mother.

I didn't come here to discuss that; I want to know what position Grandpa offered Taiwo in the company.

"Temilade walks into the room."

TEMI

What did you say, Bayo?

BAYO

(He appears surprised)

Temilade, you are back?

TEMI

Repeat what you said, Bayo?

Mrs B BALOGUN

Temi, it's not what you think, please.
