TITLE: The Web EPISODE: 25 AUTHOR: Candy A few days to the wedding. Ade worried incessantly about bolus mum. They had agreed on a low key wedding to avoid the spotlight. There were reporters who hounded him and looked for any news about his fiancée. Not one to let a problem fester, Ade agreed with bolu to have the wedding at Osogbo. Luckily, his parents were very supportive. Early on the morning of Thursday, they had decided to give Tobi one last visit, to invite him for the wedding. Hey! Tobi shook hands with Ade and said a cool hello to Bolu. Temi was there, playing solitaire on his lap top while he worked on the desktop. Its been three weeks since Temi last answered Bolus call or even called her back. Bolu had tried all she could to see her, but Temi had deliberately avoided her friend, now she knew why. Temi! She screamed in a blend of joy and surprise at seeing her friend there. Why have you not been picking my calls now? She held her friends hands. Em...em...Ive been busy sha. But they said you no longer work at dprince. Ive been there. Bolu admonished her friend with love. Hem ade cleared his throat to get their attention. Tobi and Temi, we are here to invite you to our wedding-for the umpteenth time. Ade smiled and expected his friend to find it funny. He didnt. Sorry, like I told you guys earlier, I have a date with Temi on saturday. We cant make it. He held Temis hands for emphasis. She looked up to him and smiled. He gave her a kiss on the lips that said we are an item. Bolu wasnt angry because they were an item. She was not even angry Tobi had drifted away from them. She was angry because Temi had betrayed her love. She was the chief brides maid! Ok, I guess Ill just get another maid of honor. She looked her friend straight in the eye and waited for her answer. Temi didnt answer. Bolu pulled her hands and lead her outside the office. They had to talk. Temi followed her reluctantly while Ade and Tobi carried on an awkward conversation. Temi snatched her hands from Bolus grip, they were beginning to hurt, or were they? Maybe its the feeling of guilt. She followed her quietly to the car park and Bolu leaned on Ades car, while Temi looked down at her feet in shame. Hmm, youve stepped up some. Bolu pointed at her designer shoes and dress. Temi held her hair up with a pair of Ray ban sun shades. Bolu wasnt looking bad herself. She decked a pair of black ph pant and a pink stripped shirt, all expensive. Temi, you know I can never stand in your way with Tobi. But you shouldnt have done it secretly. Well, what can I say? Single girl met single guy, guy didnt want to talk about you or your mum, what do I do? Tell him off to be with you? She asked No, babe. But you could have told me instead of lying about it. I called you before coming here, you never said you were... She couldnt hold it in any longer. Temi suddenly burst into tears, all pent up emotions let out in the stream that flowed down her cheeks. Bolu, Im so sorry. I have no excuse. I dont have your face or your great body. I felt Tobi was my only chance of meeting a great guy... Bolu held her rocking shoulders. Temi dear, you are beautiful and you have a large heart. Besides, I can never come in your way. You were there when I needed you most, you couldve trusted me. Im so sorry. She continued crying. How is mama? Shes not fine o. She told her about everything theyve been through. Oh, my! Poor mama! They hugged and she called Tobi to tell him she was going. Ade joined them and they all drove down to felele. Seeing madam tys condition, Temi confessed what transpired between her and Mrs Seriki. Maybe she used another charm. They were shocked. This looked bigger than them. What then? Ade asked. We continue praying. Abi? You really shouldve told me earlier, Temi. Bolu said. Its ok. Lets think of the way out now. Ade pacified Bolu and they sat down to think of the way forward. Temi was happy to be back in her friends life and forgiven. She was determined to do her best to right the wrong. ******************* Watchout for Part 2
