EKO SUITES AND HOTEL, LAGOS.

Ay's comedy show just concluded and people are milling out of the auditorium. Amara and Derek exit the hall through a side door meant for VIP guests. A few celebrities recognized them from the news and they congratulate them and take pictures with them on the red carpet.

"That was awesome! Ay is the best, he even gave us a shout out." Amara said leaning on Derek's shoulder as they walk to the parking lot.
