"Really?" Karimat asked with a questioning stare. "Don't go and spoil the boy o. You know he is Lola first husband and she doesn't joke with him."

"Ahh ahh Karri. You have dirty thoughts. What are you thinking that I am going to do to him?" Karimat replied with a shrug. "Abba he is just like my little brother o. Nothing more."

"We can't say. We all knew Lola brother is looking bigger than his age and the boy is fine." Ibukun replied.

"Okay dear. Sleep tight. Say hi to your hot boo for us." Karimat said and Lola slapped her back while she laughed rubbing her back. Lola pulled away and went over to Ibukun.

"Thanks Bella for today." Ibukun said quietly to only her hearing.

Lola smiled at her. "It's nothing. See you tomorrow dear." She nodded at her and then she waved at the others before walking out of the room.

Lola laid on a seat with her head resting on Demilade laps. They were both looking down at the party that was going on below them at the beach.

The sun was high up in the sky blazing down on the earth. The calm breeze from the sea was able to reduce the scorching heat from the sun. Not like people actually felt it with how they were under it sitting, standing, talking and dancing. Some were even lying under it on the sand to tone their skin. Most white ladies were enjoying the feel of the sun on them as they lay on the sand with their sunscreen body.

There was a beach party going on below their suite and it was crowded with people. Both black and white, Chinese and mixed. The rest of their friends was mingled with the crowd. Men could be seen in their shorts and light shirt and some in just shorts. Majority if the ladies were in their bikini while the rest were in short flower gown, um short and singlet.

Demilade and his girlfriend had left the party shortly after Lola started having headaches. He took her back to their suit and they sat in the balcony looking down at the party that was going down below. People were having fun. Some were playing around, some sat in groups playing games while others play a group game competing with each other, others were busy drinking and chatting on top of their voice over the music that was playing.

Among those crowd was their friends having fun with the rest of them.

Demilade was busy with his tablet replying emails when he heard Lola spoke up.

"I'm glad Ada is having fun." She said.

Lola had sighted her friend sitting with Demilade friend Fareed close to the water. Their feet was in the water and they seem oblivious of their surroundings. The people, the noise, and every other things doesn't seem to affect them as they sat close to each other talking and laugh.
