Chapter 1 The Unexpected Encounter
The sun was shining brightly on the bustling streets of Lagos, casting a warm glow over the crowded sidewalks. The air was alive with the sounds of car horns, chatter, and the wail of sirens in the distance. Amidst the chaos, I stood out, lost in my own little world. My name is Tunde, and I was a 25-year-old graphic designer, struggling to make a name for myself in the competitive world of advertising. My day had started on a sour note, with a missed deadline and a stern warning from my boss. Feeling defeated, I had decided to take a walk to clear my head.
As I strolled through the crowded market, my eyes wandered over the vibrant stalls, taking in the colorful array of fruits, vegetables, and textiles. Suddenly, I collided with a young woman, sending her bags flying in all directions. "Oh no, I'm so sorry!" I exclaimed, as I rushed to help her gather her belongings. She looked up at me, her bright brown eyes sparkling with amusement. "It's okay, I'm fine," she said, her voice husky and confident. As we both bent down to pick up her bags, our hands touched, sending a jolt of electricity through my body. I felt a sudden rush of attraction, which I quickly pushed aside, attributing it to mere embarrassment. Once we had gathered all her belongings, I stood up, brushing off my clothes. "Again, I'm really sorry about that," I said, feeling a bit awkward. She smiled, her full lips curving upwards. "Like I said, it's okay. I'm Nneoma, by the way." "I'm Tunde," I replied, feeling a sense of relief wash over me. As we parted ways, I couldn't help but steal a glance at Nneoma, wondering if I would ever see her again. Little did I know, our chance encounter was only the beginning of an unforgettable adventure.
