"No. No."

"That's no big deal," Ibukun said. Then she smiled at him and stretched forth her hand. "I'm Ibukunoluwa Odusanya. You can just call me IB."

He took her hands with a smile. "IB, I like that." And he turned to Ada who have a small smile playing on her lips. It was obvious she found Fareed amusing.

"My name is Adaugo Okeke," Ada said.

Fareed glanced at Demilade with a knowing look and turned back to her.

"It's nice meeting you, ladies. I'm Reed by the way. Fareed Rabiu."

"The pleasure is ours." Ada and Ibukun said in unison.

"To be frank, I'm surprised to see you guys in this kind of our street. Please don't mind all the eyes o. They will get tired soon." Ada said. Both Demilade and Fareed nodded.

"It's nothing," Demilade replied, honestly.

"Not really a biggie but it just doesn't look like they will get tired soon with how they keep looking this way," Fareed said to them and they laughed.

"Don't just mind them. That is their nature. But it's a big honor seeing you here." Ibukun said sincerely to them, glancing at Demilade who still has his arms around his girlfriend.

She never imagined that Lola's boyfriend of all people will come to such an environment just to see his girlfriend. She knew Lola was the one who always visit him and she understood her reasons for always going to his place. But not the other way around. Couple with the fact that he is a very busy man. But seeing him with his good-looking friend whom she was very sure that is also rich surprises her.

"Anything for her." He looked down at Lola affectionately and her friend smiled happily at her. "Moreover it's not so bad," Demilade said looking around. "Not that I really mind the eyes.".

He was used to it. Getting attention from people everywhere he goes. People always like to surround him even in his own company. He was like a celebrity.

"He is used to the attention. He is a businessman celebrity." Fareed said to the girls. And they laughed while Demilade shakes his head at his friends. "You know.." Fareed brushed the side of his beard saying. "I will love to meet you, ladies, again... To know you more. Hope you don't mind that Lola?" He asked Lola.

She shook her head. "No, of course not. Or do you guys?" She asked her friends.

"No. No."

"We will love that too. As our friend boyfriend friend...." Ibukun said with a smirk.

"That's very good then. Demmy, how about we make a plan for a vacation."

"Vacation?" The ladies chorused including Lola.

"Yeah, you know.... to go have fun and take a break for a few days. We will need it after our business trip. Don't you think so Demmy?"

He shrugged. "Whatever you say, Reed."

"So are you ladies in for it?" He asked them.

"Of course. That's a very big yes. I love the idea already." Ibukun answered.

"We are in." Ada also agreed.

"As long as it is going to be fun and cruising. Count us in. We are all in for fun." Ibukun said, proudly.

"That is settled then," Fareed smirked. "I will communicate the plans and wherever we will be going through Lola if that is okay?"

"It is okay." They answered in unison.
