.....MY FAIRY TALE- Nne Welcome home-4

I didn't know if Obi Knew i had seen him, but i was upset that i was kept waiting longer than expected ( was i over reacting? maybe.But i had already set the ball rolling and i didn't know how to stop it).
Again he honked and as if in a trance he overtook me, OK fine, his F1 (Formula1) status had been firmly established.
Slowly, i acknowledged defeat and brought my car to a halt at the side of the road, he noticed this and did the same in front of mine.

He got out of the car,Why did he have to be so sexy i wondered,he came to my window and tapped gently on it,while i was rolling down my glass, i was also trying to grasp what was left my suppose anger.
He said, "Nne where are you rushing to, i got to your office when i saw you pull out,"
"Oh really, i thought we cancelled, since it was past the time, i didn't see you though," Lying with the two sides of my mouth,i replied.
 He shook his head, more in disbelief than anything else, 
"well, on my way, i stopped to buy you pizza, that's why i ran later than expected".
Suddenly, i felt small and silly, i had just behaved like the school girl i always claimed not to be, i bowed my head slightly as i was at a loss for what to say and prayed that the ground will open and swallow me.
He chuckled and smiled, i looked up and OMG!, his gap-tooth was sexy for days, what could i say?, 
"Can we go now?" he asked.
I said in the smallest voice i could muster,"OK, lead the way".
"Nne m,you are just a woman" he said
He walked back to his car, turned on the ignition got back on the road, i followed behind him like a helpless puppy.

After driving through the Friday madness in Lagos, we finally got to our destination.
We had both parked our cars he carried my weekend bag and led me to the door, at this point
he said,  "Nne welcome home",
  Suddenly the butterflies in my stomach had names,i was apprehensive.
