"I love you lade" he whispers into my ears..slowly planting a kiss on my forehead .....I lay on his mattress speechless...it's how he makes me feel; he takes me to more intense levels of ecstasy...Driving his fingers down my spine as he turns me face down,me laying on my stomach....He unhooks my bra so slowly that I could feel every individual hook loose it's hold....Calculating every move he makes on my skin like a wild predator...He takes me further away from reality. And then my phone rang..Waking me up from one of those dreams. And what's worse it was airtel calling my line."Do they actually know that no one cares about the things they call to say?.
Well, it's been a month and joe is still on tour. And his been extremely busy lately...Sometimes even too busy to pick up my calls,I decided to do the right thing and give him a little bit of space and try new things,
And as far as I can tell I am doing great.... Well...
(LADE ON A PHONE CALL WITH TEMI)
LADE:I am dying!!!!!
TEMI:Call him na.
LADE:Haven't you been listening to me? I can't just call him...I will seem so desperate.
TEMI:But you are desperate.
LADE:Temi I'm serious here..
TEMI:(LAUGHS)Okay Look,lade if you miss joe so much just call him already.. you are both adults.if he is too busy to pick up your calls,which I doubt he'd be... leave him a message or something okay?
LADE:(SIGHS)Okay.
TEMI:Now let me be...I'll talk to you later.
(CALL ENDS)
The only time I get to be with Joseph is in my dreams,literally.i really miss him,
Wonder if he misses me just as much.
(ESTHER KNOCKS ON THE DOOR)
LADE:Enter!
(ESTHER WALKS IN)
ESTHER:(EXCITEDLY)How excited are you today?!
LADE: (sarcastically) Yaaay???......But remind me again why we're so excited?
ESTHER:Your joking lade?How could you forget? It's Aisha's first day at school today!
"OMG!" I exclaimed....I guess I was so depressed about joe's absence, thinking about him I actually forgot to think.It's Aisha's first day in junior secondary School one. "what time is it?" I asked esther as I jumped out of bed, moving around hastily....It was 6:31am I had no time to shower and get ready...
"Come on I'll go in my pajamas....it's just a bunch of little children" I said to esther picking up my feminine body spray running out of my bedroom.
We finally got to Aisha's new school... and luckily on time."Everybody look over there! It's lade Jackson joeboy's baby mama!!!!! Some annoying looking kid yells out, calling everyone's attention....everyone brought out their phones to take pictures...I wasn't even a student there,yet I learnt a valuable lesson from school........
"NEVER GO TO SCHOOL IN PJ'S"
"Come on lade it doesn't look that bad" Esther said trying to talk me out of my present shameful state as she looks at the pictures online,captioned "lade Jackson forgot to look good"...."How did these pictures get out so fast?" I asked esther with both my palm covering my eyes as we approached our neighborhood. I felt so bad for Aisha, her first day in school and I stole all the attention from her. I'm sure she hates me now.
PH CITY
Joe: "Where's my phone?"
Manager: "It's in safe hands at the moment."
Joeboy: "I'll need it for a minute... need to talk to..."
Manager: "Lade? (laughs) Yo, Joe, this girl is gonna be a huge problem here if you don't cut it at this point."
Joeboy: "Problem?"
Manager: "You know I will never advise you on what's wrong for your career. I'm all about the music man, and that's what's important to me. Someone like Lade will never stop being a liability, man. She needs to go."
