You call the shot 2

I landed in gidi, headed straight for home to my greatest amazement Yaya had travelled to Abuja for her friend's mum birthday or at least so she told our parents. I kept buzzing her lines all through the day no reply, I was this close to telling mum about my discovery in fact I wanted to tell the whole family, I just managed to keep my calm, she finally called and before the young lady said hello I YELLED at her, WHERE ARE YOU? WE BOTH KNOW YOU LIED TO MUM ABOUT YOUR LOCATION. She giggled and said sis I am sorry I had to, I am actually in London. I really did not know how to react at this point but I quickly grabbed a chair and my voice began to fail me. I would explain in details when I get back next week please keep this a secret, I would call you up later byeee love you and she hung up. I stared at the phone for a long while it took another call to bring me back to planet earth, those wild friends of her have thought her how to play dirty and sound innoncent.... I hugged my pillow, prayed to God and shut my lids.

Its been two weeks since I aced my last target and I have basically been lounging, my boss called me and as usual I could smell a new and higher target, I just hope this people would not ask me to cut my breast to keep their bank running some day mschew I even thought they would let me chill for a month before handing me my anxiety moments back, to my amazement it was a letter stating I had been promoted wow!!! God"s amazing grace....

Yaya landed and I dished  her series of insults the truth is I did not give her the space to talk in fact I slapped her called her a dog and walked her out of my room, all she did was cry after 60 hours she dropped her phone on my bed and asked me to read, I read through and though I was glancing at her disdainfully, I checked the date to be sure this was not some cooked up plan, my sister then expressed how disappointed she was that I did not even give her the benefit of the doubt, she simply left... She wasn't a dog, she started delivering food to his branch in Abuja, they met and he wanted to date, she told him she wasn't interested and continued with her job and then on this fateful day she was given the opportunity to serve their foreign partners a kind of dish their in house caterers were not familiar with, they were impressed and he set her up and gave her more contracts infact she heads the kitchen when such special delicacies are to be made and she and her team went to London because they were catering for a client's wedding. I know it might sound unbelievable given his record with women but I call the shot not his money or looks, I say it is a business affair and so it is, why would I want to sell my body for temporary gain, I used my brain to make money from his company just the way other girls relegate themselves to using their body to get cash from him and its exactly the same way you have been a marketer all this years without unzipping your integrity, there are so many marketers that use their bodies to meet their target or other fraudulent means and blame the society or their defaulted childhood for their actions, those things don't dictate my actions, I have the right to better my lot and I have chosen to do it the legal and righteous way.

You are right I said to my little princess, everyone should call the shot in their lives, money and other things should not dictate how we live our lives, integrity is not a matter of expediency.... It should be our watch word. We decided to let the cat of the bag and inform our parents about her outlet in Abuja, they were glad and a little upset with her for keeping them in the dark all this while, they gave her their blessings and she had no reason to lie to us about her location ever again.
I had a wonderful sleep that night as it was such a big relief to know she still had her values intact.....
