Adebimpe the facebook girl season 5 epi 5

I left the eatery that Sunday and went back home thinking of how I have messed up with my life.
” Another pregnancy again?”
“Onihaxy, what have you brought upon yourself?”
“Now that she refused an abortion?, what will happen next?”
“What will happen if Betty or Henry finds out?”

“How will I face betty to give her explanations?”
” Hope I won’t lose betty at the end of the day?”
“Hope I’m not doomed already now?”
” And segun had vowed not to be involved anymore”
” What do I do now?”
I got home and started preparing for Monday work with lots of anxiety filled up in my mind. I did some cleaning and laundry and prepared dinner and later engaged Segun and Betty in chats to ease my tension before going to bed.
Two weeks later, I got to work on a Monday morning and dropped my phone on the table before going for connect session. I managed to compose myself throughout the meeting due to a very strong headache and returned to my desk to start the work for the day. On checking my phone, I saw 8 missed calls from Adebimpe and my mood was changed immediately. She has always been calling me right from the day we met at the eatery which I had been ignoring. I managed to concentrate on my work until few minutes to 1pm when got a text message on my phone. Out of curiosity, I opened it with the mindset that it was from Bimpe and I was shocked to see Funmi’s name as the sender. I was surprised because it was the very first time I will be receiving a text from her. The message reads “see me in my office”.
I suspended my work and went to meet her in the office.
ME: Hi, you asked me to see you.
FUNMI: yes, please I want to send you an errand.
ME: alright, what is that?
FUNMI: you will help me to buy a plate of rice and a bottle coke at TFC.
ME: is that all?
FUNMI: yes.
ME: alright ***standing up and turning back*****
FUNMI: onihaxy, where are you going?, won’t you wait and collect money?
ME: don’t worry, the bill is on me.
FUNMI: *** surprised ****bill on you?, really?
ME: yeah.
FUNMI: ooooooooooooh, your salary was paid yesterday right?
ME: ***smiled******
FUNMI: ****smile too****no wonder, now I understand the reason behind your “Mr nice guy” today.
ME: Haba, it’s not like that funmi, I just wanted to buy you the lunch today.
FUNMI: hmmmmmm, nice one. Onihaxy has started acting caring. But I think you aren’t man enough.
ME: Me?, not Man enough?, how?.
FUNMI: are you supposed to buy the lunch and bring it to me? Or take me out for lunch?
ME: hmmmmmmmm *** sighed***
FUNMI: yeah. Or you are scared of your purse?
ME: scared kee?, not at all.
FUNMI: no problem them onihaxy, go back to your desk and tidy up your work. When its 2pm, you are taking me out for lunch.
ME: alright boss.
FUNMI: **smiled** silly boy.
I returned to my desk with anxiety and I began to wonder what really attracted me to Funmi in the first place. I wasn’t that handsome neither did I have a sexy body structure. At around 1:40pm, I went outside to where our ATM was located and withdrew 5k from my account, I returned to my seat and patiently waited for funmi’s call.
At exactly 2pm, funmi came out of her office and walked closer to my desk. She halted, tapped on my table and said “meet me in my car”. My heart began to beat heavily and I was scared as it was my first time of taking a senior colleague out on a date. As usual, my office mate observed the situation and began to look at me in n hypocrisy manner and I was so sure that they would start gossiping about it when I’m gone. I stood up, packaged my wallet very well and stepped out of the office to meet funmilayo outside the bank premises.
I got outside the banking hall and I saw Funmilayo sitting inside her car, I walked towards her car, opened the other door of the car and hooped in.
FUNMI: onihaxy, so where are you taking me to?
ME: I thought you said TFC?
FUNMI: alright, no problem. What is your budget so as to know what to order for?
ME: ***smiled**** anything you can eat is ok by me.
FUNMI: **yinmu** you better talk now. Otherwise, don’t be surprised when I order for something worth 10k and above.
ME: don’t worry. I’m capable and buoyant for now to pay any fee.
FUNMI: Alright, no problem
ME: ***smiled******
FUNMI: ***started the car****** use the seatbelt please
ME: Alright.
We drove out of the bank premises; we were on the road for the next 25 minutes until we got to one big restaurant. My heart was beating faster as we alighted from the car.
ME: Aren’t we going to TFC again?,
FUNMI: no jaree, I just changed my mind. I always come here to eat often so I prefer this place.
I looking around as we entered, I was scared that the meals must be expensive because the whole place looked so sophisticated and “tushed up”, a very nice painting, lovely and adorable seats, the lightening was also nice with a nice outside view through the transparent wall glass. we walked through the seats until we found an empty “two seat table” and we sat down. I dropped my phone on my table while funmi dropped her bag beside her chair and we began to look at each other in the eyeball until the waiter arrived.
WAITER: Hi sir and madam, you are welcome.
FUNMI: ***looked at the waiter**** thank you.
WAITER: ***brought out a menu and gave it to funmi**** please place your orders.
ME: *** my heart was beating heavily and trying to steal a glance at the prices as funmi was reading through.
FUNMI: a plate of pando yam.
WAITER: ***brought out a jotter and a pen*** vegetable or egusi soup ma?
FUNMI: vegetable is ok.
WAITER: fish or chicken ma?
FUNMI: chicken
WAITER: ok ma, ****passed the menu to me*** what about you sir?
ME: **collected it and looked at the price of what funmi ordered for and I was shocked that pando yam was priced for 1,800 naira per plate. I looked up and saw the price of rice for 1,600*** rice is ok by me.
WAITER: ok sir ***he left***
FUNMI: ***looking straight into my eyeballs***. Onihaxy took me out on a date today, hmmmmmm, igwe must hear this.
ME: **smiled** funny, why must igwe hear about it?
FUNMI: because he will be surprised.
ME: hmmmmmm. I like this restaurant, its a nice place and the foods aren’t expensive.
FUNMI: yeah, that’s true. I do come here often.
WAITER: ***arrived with a big tray containing three plates and two bottle waters*** here are your orders sir and madam.
FUNMI: ***collected the plate of pando yam and another plate containing vegetable soup***
ME: ***collected the third plate containing mixture of fried rice, jollof rice, salad and a chicken lap***
WAITER: ****dropped the bottle waters and dropped a receipt of N3,600 and left****
ME: ***picked the receipt from the table and faced funmi*** what is this meant for?
FUNMI: that is what you will take to the reception and then pay for the meal.
ME: hmmmmm. Lovely.
FUNMI: or the total amount is too much for you?
ME: not at all. Haba, how much is it?, not even up to four thousand naira.
Funmi continued smiling as we continued eating and having series of gist at the same time until I was shocked when she looked into my eyeballs and asked me
“onihaxy, how is your girlfriend?”
