Beholding Her (2)

Could she be taking her bath? Or merely making up for her tattered guest May be, scared. . Looking for a friend for help Whatever! I sighed”I will wait for her For I have come a long way” Suddenly, as I was trying her phone again I saw a lady walking my direction Her gaze on my eyes was very heavy Could she be the one I am waiting for? As if she heard what I said She gave a quasi-smile aimed at me Walking smartly but very consciously She gave another smile of confirmation I responded instantly with mine saying “Here comes IBK at last”. I stretched forth my hand “Good Morning ma. How are you?” “Fine, how was your journey? Sorry, for the stress you got into” I need not answer, for she is got it. Alayande Stephen T. 23rd November, 2007 3.40pm On my way to Ikare Enroute Akungba-Akoko Inside the bus.
