Aliyah stood up to wash her hands after her meal. Daus couldn’t get an inkling until Aliyah was ready to foot her bill. She opened her bag to bring out some money. Don’t worry ma, he has paid for your meal, said one of the waitresses. Who paid for me? Aliyah asked in a mellow tone. The waitress pointed to a man outside, the man was well-dressed in expensive “Agbada” attire. You could tell he’s an influential man by the way he carried himself. He was waiting with style for his driver to make a u-turn but I guessed including Aliyah. She sidled out gently from the restaurant to thank the man in "Agbada". It was just in time a Mercedes Benz car pulled over beside the man.
Thank you sir, Aliyah said to the man. Virtually everybody in the restaurant was watching the scenario including Daud who muttered to himself, "I know beautiful ladies never walk alone".
But this time he’s totally wrong. You’re welcome, the man told her. Where are you heading? Do you care for a ride? He asked her incessantly. No thank you sir. I would be fine, Aliyah replied. And she made away with a gait that’s enough to enchant a man for a second trial. Daud’s eyes were glued to the act while footing his bill. He couldn’t figure out the whole thing until the man who’s in his late forties asked his driver to zoom off without Aliyah.
Now Daud got the message of a man trying to woo a damsel. She walked towards the road side to get a bus going to “Abeokuta”. He rushed out before she would evanesce. He looked around confusedly into the crowd as he revved gently.
Her radiant and moisturized skin that reflects back every of the rays of the ultra-violet would give you a lead to her spot. Aliyah adjusted her sunglasses that took her for a model. She has a lovely pointed nose, while her hair-do dazzles under the rays of light. The red V- neck shirt looks perfect on her, revealing the apex of her cleavage. She was sexy in her three quarter short that revealed her little curvy hips. Her outfit gave her a ravishing and astounding look. Daud approaches her as he drove slowly to get his wheels off the road.
One part of his mind told him to move on in other to avoid the wrath of a beauty. (She had turned down an offer from an influential man what would be of me? Daud thought to himself). He disrupted from that thought and stirred the wheel to the right side. ‘‘If one doesn’t try you can never tell what’s not meant to be’’. He concluded and pulled over just some meters away from her. When he came out of the car, Aliyah looked away.
Daud tried to be as gentle as a snail as he walked timidly towards Aliyah.
With a wince on her face, he constrained out words from his mouth. Hey beautiful, what’s an angel doing under this blazing sun? He asked, can I give you a hitch? What does it look to you I'm doing, Aliyah responded harshly and then moved away from his front with a prolonged hiss. Cold sweat swept his feet, inciting to blame himself why he had stopped in the first place. But the other side of him wouldn’t want to give up the fight that easily. He tried to sound more convincing this time rather than reflecting flirt.
He cleared his throat trying to create an attention from her. Aliyah looked back and asked why he’s still following her. Then she saw this serious look on his face and she decided to listen to what he has to say this time.
