It was very cold in the club despite the number of people hopping to the songs playing... me been my usual self I was observing the number of youths, there were old men some pot bellied with couple or more girls, in fact it was a mess atleast so I felt and I thought why should anyone want to Drink and get knocked out, those girls with the older men why would or should any girl settle for that.... I was just trying to comprehend most of the questions I asked myself when I saw TRISHA walk towards me from the bar with a very tall, dark looking guy with bald head and I just smiled and thought "isn't she just so lucky?"
As she got closer I just stood up from the couch I was sitting and bent over pretending I was hugging her and then said "isn't it just so easy for you? " and then I leaned back smiling And sipping on my drink when to my greatest surprise she just smiled and said
"Lowry meet Amanda and Amanda this gentle man is Lowry.... excuse me"
I choked on my drink watching Trisha leave without the guy she just mentioned his name was..... ' oh she didn't' I thought to myself
"I'm sorry I....... excuse me" I stood up quickly, trying to adjust the little dress I was wearing, and at the same time running to catch up with Trisha
I felt the strong hand of the guy I just asked to excuse me hold me back and for a second I panicked
"What's going on here? " I said
"I am Lowry and I understand you're Amanda." He said with his surprisingly rich baritone and commanding voice, and I thought it must have really been long I had such casual conversations with a Man, not like i don't but it's kind of like what I do every day, talk but not like this
"Is this One of Trisha's match making tricks?" Was all I could say
He pulled back looking confused and almost at the same time he smiled and said
"No"
Like he just got an understanding of the scenario but I was still confused so I stared at him waiting for him to say something and then he finally said like he could read my mind
"Can we go outside so we talk please?" He said calmly
And I felt what was it with this guy?
I didn't understand anything but I just said
"Look I came down here for my girlfriend because she's feeling sober about her breakup...... "
"Trust me I just want to know you, this is not a set up" he said calmly as he took my hand, then he gave me this look like he was assuring me that I'd be fine as he led the way out of the club
And there I was I just followed him like a dummy but no regrets.
Getting outside we sat down in his car and we talked endlessly and I saw myself laughing alot and then I don't know what happened we kissed and damn it, it felt real good!
Within the duration of two hours I got to know that his full name was Lowry Adebayo, he's a movie producer and an actor from Oyo state and I also got to realise that if he's not on set acting or producing movies then he's painting. I must confess I was loosing myself to this stranger; lol and I loved the feeling and yes Lowry was indeed very funny and I already felt comfortable like I've known him for ages....
"I'm not usually like this" I said as he moved my dress upwards and I felt more chill on my skin. He then kissed my forehead saying
"I'd love to see you again."
"I'd really love that too." I said
I felt sexy and felt all strong and confident and I didn't understand why I felt that way
"So I'd come pick you up tomorrow so we have lunch? Or maybe Dinner? "
Me been my usual calculative and cynical self I said
"It's already Saturday" I said smiling and then I kissed him then said
"I wouldn't mind having you for breakfast"
Oh my gush what's happening?
Where did that come from?
He smiled and then returned the kiss
"I wouldn't want you to start feeling sorry for yourself later, so as much as I'm tempted I'd just be a gentle man and respect this beautiful lady."
He said as he kissed my handle
Long story short I was in love
Helplessly and stupidly in love with Lowry, we've hanged out alot since then, we always had remarkably unbelievable sex and with Lowry I felt beautiful, sexy, smart and most importantly he
Our Potty Training Story As at the time I'm writing this blog my baby 'Vida' is two years old and she's potty trained. Initially she got potty trained at about 21 to 22months old officially even though before then she'd indicate when she needed to use her potty but i choose to say 22months old because she decided independently on her own to stop wearing diapers, whenever I wore her diapers she'd remove it and that's when I came to the conclusion that we were potty trained! So initially I introduced potty to my daughter quite early, I think somewhere around 8-9 months; reasons because the bath my mum gifted us came with a potty and also she (my mum) engineered the idea of how nice it'd be if I started potty training early. So I do as told even though I wasn't doing it consistently, reason because it was difficult to tell when she needed to pee or poo, it just happens plus I wasn't always into it, so it was off and on for me. Fast forward to when s...
