Chapter 22: I don’t love you

Arike’s POV

"Are you okay?" Busayomi asked when I entered the kitchen.

"Yes..I am fine."

"Rice or swallow?" She asked.

"Rice...no.. I'd prefer swallow." I answered.

"Okay..I will prepare Eba."

"That's cool. Thank you."

I brief her about the agent response and all she did was heave out a huge sigh. She wasn't happy.

I grabbed an apple from the refrigerator.

"Have you thought about the gender of your baby?" She asked.

"No, I haven't given it a thought."

"A boy would definitely look like Adedayo." She said.

"I don't want a boy." I resorted Immediately.

She laughed. "So no one would know the truth."

"I want a baby girl." I whispered.

"Any gender is fine by me as long as I get to be called big mommy." She said.

We laughed.

I would definitely devote my life to raising my child.

"Will you be needing a new box?" She asked

"Oh Yes! The zip of the old one has worn out."

"Okay..we'll go probably on Friday or Saturday to get a new one."
