Wahala for who dey date rich pikin😊

The first thing Tacha reached for the moment she woke up was her phone. A smile tugged on her lips when she saw that she had two messages waiting to be read. Without opening it yet, Tacha knew what to expect. Her smile became wide at the thought of Nathan been consistent with his early messages. It had just been three days anyways. He will soon get tired. Tacha thought, releasing a silent chuckle so as not to wake her friend who was sleeping next to her. Tacha knew one of it was Nathan's because it had been an every day thing since they got back together. She couldn't wait to read it, and still couldn't believe all these was real.

Tacha held her phone in her palm, walking towards the bathroom. It was almost seven in the morning. Around the time she had to wake up and prepare for work. She sat on the water closet to ease herself, using the opportunity to click on the messages she got.

Nathan's first.

'Yesterday, I was caught smiling through out. Then I realised the after effect of your kiss made me a happy man all day. By the time you are reading this, I should be outside already. I need that dose to be a happy man through out the day again.'

Tacha who was trying her best not to laugh so loud took the house by surprise with her laughter. It was inevitable after reading Nathan's message. Oh my God, that's so sweet. Tacha said to herself rolling her eyes, not without smiling for as long as she could remember. She wondered how he came up with that. And then....she remembered.

Tacha ran out of their bathroom, reaching for the room's door even before her feet got there. When she made it to the living room, she realised she was completely naked, laughing at herself before running back to the room to grab a gown. By the time she was done wearing it, she was outside their apartment already before she realised it was something far from a gown. Suddenly, her mind went back to the plates her and Kenny ate with last night. She jumped very quickly back to the living room, packing everything that needed to be packed to the room, and to the kitchen. She used that opportunity to change her long top to a gown that reached her midthigh. Tacha made her way out again. She walked towards the gate, dialing Nathan's number to know where he parked.

A smile spread on Tacha's face when he picked her call. She could tell by his voice that she woke him up. Natasha or Tito must have given him the description to her house because Nathan never came to her place at all. God what time did he start coming over here. Tacha's side of the mouth switched into a cool smile when she heard his tired and sleepy voice.

"Good morning babe. Are you set for work?"

At what time? Tacha thought, a grin on her face for she knew she wasn't like Nathan who goes to work by seven every morning.

Tacha raised her brow as if Nathan was before her. "How can you stay out there all alone? You should have called me now. Our living room for you to wait. I woke up just now. I had to hurry out of the house the moment I read your message. Where did you park?"

A rough chuckle escaped from Nathan's mouth. "I've only waited for forty minutes miss. Are there thieves in your area or what?"

Of course there is dumbass! Tacha ran towards his car. This is a country where people rob you day light. Talkless of when the day isn't bright yet. Where kidnappers kidnap your car including you and everything that can generate them money.

Nathan just continued. "It's almost seven miss. Nothing is going to happen. Stop running and don't hurt your feet. Got here five minutes past six. We all know how Lagos gets busy even before that time. Early risers like us hit the road even before five in the morning."
