The Secret Diaries 11




   We talked some more, she was really happy for me. I was happy too…
And then we talked about Yemi. He wanted us to come around that evening but I obviously couldn’t make it. Kendra understood…infact Kendra my friend understood me way too much. You’d know what I mean if you have a bestfriend.
We joked and teased each other about our Maybe boyfriends over a bottle of wine while I finished packing. We laughed and laughed and laughed…


   And talked…
And laughed.
Until Daniel’s driver came to get me. Be fore I stepped into the car, Kendra and I hugged for long…we only stopped when I noticed the driver shifting uneasily. We were obviously making him and his boss late.
I got into the car and in a moment, it moved away…
Away from my comfort zone…my house.
Away from my friend Kendra who kept waving until I could see her no more. I was missing her already even though we were only going to be apart for a week or so…but I was going to be with someone I was crazy about…
And terribly in love with…


   And I was nervous….just like my friend was with her crush.
We got to Daniel’s house within minutes. He was already waiting by the walk way and so got in beside me as soon as the car glided to a stop.
“Hey.” He waved at me.
“You didn’t call…” I started to say without thinking. “I thought…”
“That I might not be serious about this?” he finished for me.
I nodded, a bit shy
“I’d be crazy not to take the second shot you’re giving me.”
My eyes widened. “I’m not giving you a second shot, hell I’m not even giving you any shot.”
“But you’re coming with me…to Vegas…” one his eyebrows was up.
“For business dude, remember you’re paying? And after that it’d be as they say, what happens in Vegas, stays in Vegas.”
“Hmmm…” he said, thinking about what I just said for a while. Then he leaned in as if to kiss me and all of a sudden, all the hairs on me stood up. My eyes refused to stay open as the electricity between us sparked.


“Are you sure about that?” he said suddenly and my eyes flew open.
“What?” I croaked from all the lust I was feeling.
“What  happens in Vegas stays in Vegas?” he looked me in the eyes for a moment before pulling back. I was embarrassed. Look at me, I was just giving him the I don’t want you attitude and yet failed the first test. Don’t blame me…the guys knew how to tempt a woman and he didn’t really have to try. He’s good, I’ll give him that, I thought to myself.

No, I was just really crazy for him.

I met a man once - The bad?

Hi guys, it's been  months since I updated my blog... It's been a busy 1 year for me and I'm proud of myself and the woman I've become. A friend of mine reminded me a few days ago, of how grown I have become, especially mentally and in my writing skill. I didn't take her seriously until she mentioned my blog. You can't be surprised that i decided to take a look at it this morning only to become nostalgic.  It reminded me of a lot of things but more than that, I can see the flaws in some of the things I've written, and I'm grateful that I am at a point in my career where I can actually spot all of it with ease and create several ways I could have done it better...on the spot! Before I get any more emotional 😎 I stumbled on the last draft I saved for publishing in February of last year and I'm going to share it with you guys exactly as I left it back then.  Read On... "Some of us know how we can feel a lot of different emotions for just one perso...

My truth.

It's 2:44am and I'm crying my eyes out. I feel foolish but I can't help the tears. In my two room apartment that has always been cozy for me, I feel restless and a great urge to take flight. This apartment has been home for me for months now. I leave it in three months time but no matter, it's still my home...a place of refuge, a place where I can be hidden. ...much hidden and alone... But not exactly alone. I hear the voices and conversations of many a people. Now why am I restless and unable to  sleep even at this time? It's because of a man! All my life, I've had enough tears for men...but this feels the worst. I have never cried for a man the way that I've cried for this one. I've never even settled for such a man, never thought my pride and ego would even conceal themselves all for this man. He acted different... Better than other men I've dated... But he turned out the worst of them all. No emotions... No emotions at a...

How Well Do You Know Your Telephone History?

Have you ever wondered how you could just pick up this small device and talk through it to someone else, miles and miles away from you and hear them as clearly as if they were sitting on the same couch as you? I have wondered that a lot. I have wondered who could have stumbled on the idea that something could be done to make people who live far away from each other to communicate with each other by voice. How did the person get the idea? Well, here's what i found... Two men, Alexander Graham Bell and Elisha Gray stumbled on the idea; maybe around the same time, I don't know, but they both filed for a patent on the same day. This caused a huge disagreement that led to a legal battle to find who to be awarded the patent for the invention of the telephone. Alexander Graham Bell won. His lawyer had filed for a patent a few hours before Elisha's lawyer filed for his own patent. One day, in an electrical shop, Alexander Graham Bell was trying to perfect a method for sending mes...
