COMPLICATED 💋💋💋 (EPISODE ONE)

TOLERANCE ♍

"Oh Yeah? Well, I've got an interview today at Queen's IT", I sharply replied. She left what she was doing in the kitchen and rushed to the bedroom.

NESSA: Are u serious?

MIKKY: Yeah I am.

NESSA: (Excited) Oh my God! that's great Mike. Know what?

MIKKY: What?

NESSA: I'm going with you. What time is it?

MIKKY: 10AM. Are you sure you want...

NESSA: (Cuts in)... Yes I want to. Like I told you earlier, I'm free all through today. Let's spend it together.

She held my hand tight together, and kissed them gently.

NESSA: Now go wash yourself while I fix us Breakfast.

MIKKY: (Beaming with a smile) Alright Baby.

3 HOURS LATER...

(From within the Manager's OFFICE) 🏢

"Oh really? You believe you're the right person for the job because you passed out with First Class? and because you won't just take it as a job because it's your hobby, it's something u love doing... Right?..."

Everyone could hear the Manager's Voice from the waiting room. It's obvious he was furious at this point.

MIKKY: Yes Sir... But who am I to decide if I'm worth giving the job to? I can merely quote reasons why I'm the best person for the job, the decision is yours and that of God to make.

MANAGER: I see... I like your faith... But this isn't your church ⛪ where God performs miracles... I'm the Lord in this company, only what I say prevails, u can fast and pray for 2 years, it won't change a thing if I've concluded it to be so.

MIKKY: Is that to say you're above God?

MANAGER: This interview is over. We'll get back to you.

MIKKY: Alright Sir! (Smiling) I do hope your decision is made in my favour. (As he was about to shut the door...)

MANAGER: Don't Count On It !!!

20 MINUTES LATER

OUTSIDE THE COMPANY

MIKKY: (Frowning) I'm sorry Baby, I'm sorry I...

NESSA: (Shushing him and drawing him closer, putting his head on her chest like she's the mom, stroking his hair gently) Don't ever be sorry for doing what you just did... You did your best... If the job was for you, what you say or do won't matter, it would be given to you.

MIKKY: So you aren't mad at me?

NESSA: (Laughs) Mad at you? C'mon, why would I be mad at you? It wasn't your fault. I'm fine with whenever you get a job Sweetie. I'd be mad if you were jobless and lazy as well, but you're making efforts to be responsible.

MIKKY: (sigh) I guess I'm lucky you're here with me at this moment, might have attempted suicide out of fear you'd be mad at me. Thanks for coming with me "V"...

NESSA: Suicide? What for? NewsFLASH, if you die today, I'd mourn you for a month and move on. Think of that when next you want to try something that stupid.

MIKKY: 😁😁😁 No way! No one else is having my baby. I'll think of someone else touching you when next I'm compelled to end it all. I ♥ you "V".

NESSA: I ♥ U More Mikky. Now can we head home? People are staring already. This is Africa 🗺 not Abroad.

MIKKY: Who cares?

👌👌👌👌👌👌👌👌👌👌👌👌👌

On A COMMERCIAL 🚌 BUS Headed Home....

NESSA: Sweetheart...

MIKKY: Yes ❤️

NESSA: Can I make a suggestion?

MIKKY: 😒 Do you really need to ask before making a suggestion?

NESSA: Of course I do. You might be upset or not be pleased with it so it's best I inform you first so you'd prepare your mind for what comes next.

MIKKY: Upset? With you? That's Funny. Let me get this straight right here and right now. Nothing, I mean, Nothing you'd ever do would piss me off. You're a JEWEL, it's almost IMPOSSIBLE to be mad at u "V".

NESSA: (Blushing) Awwwwn! Even if you return home one day and find me under your friend? Moaning and screaming for more?

MIKKY: That's a different issue entirely. Why do you always bring up these crazy instances whenever I try to assure you of something?

NESSA: Just trying to know how much you meant those words. Now my suggestion...

MIKKY: (Cuts in) I don't want to hear it anymore...

NESSA: Hey !!!

MIKKY: What?

NESSA: FiNE !!! I'd keep it to myself.

MIKKY: (Laughing Out Loud) Jeez! You're Hilarious... (Runs his hand through her hair then lands at her waist, then started tickling her)

NESSA: (Laughing Uncontrollably while trying to Wade him off) Let me be... I'm not telling you anything anymore...

MIKKY: (Whispers in her hear) You see why I can never get Upset or mad at you? (Nibbles her Ear)

NESSA: (Pushes him away) Why?

MIKKY: (Moves closer to her again and whispers into her ear) You are kind hearted but hot tempered... If we both choose to display our level of Annoyance, no one would be willing to swallow his or her PRIDE and apologize to the other. I think your temper is hot enough to warm the house when it's cold, if I include mine, we'd burn the house down.

NESSA: (Smiles, and places her head on his shoulder) I ❤️ u Mikky. You make me fall in ❤️ with you all over again every single day... (sigh) Can I tell you the suggestion now?

MIKKY: Look around...

NESSA: What?

MIKKY: Look around the bus... (Whispers in her Ear again) Not yet, can't you see the crowd in here? Why do you think I'm whispering? You want them to steal your idea for themselves? Be a little patient till we get home or betterstill, type it down on your phone so you won't forget.

NESSA: (Laughs) You're CRAZY 😁😁😁
