So What Else Is New?

 

Good morning.

 

Had a draining weekend, y’all. I’m not even going to lie.

 

From attending the NS book launch to another meeting to another meeting to an argument with security…

 

I’d rather not think about it. Thank God it’s Monday – and we all are still here.

 

And I’m sooooooo excited! I mean, it’s a week to the date I’ll have the privilege of sharing what has been my days and nights for a while now. Of course I’m talking about the #SavingDapo series!

 

But first, enjoy a snippet – a ‘preview’ of the series.

 

 

First View #SavingDapo. Episode I. Paragraph 32

 

 

 

Drinking’s no longer good for my disposition.

 

His reflection grinned back at him from the washroom mirror, agreeing with Grace about his appearance. His hair looked like it was run over with a shaving stick, he had three days’ worth of hair on his face, his shirt was askew and his tie – he looked like Frank Donga – up to the bags underneath the eyes.

 

That wasn’t good enough.

 

He pulled out his phone and called Grace. “Could you please come? I’m in the restroom.”

 

He couldn’t have counted up to five before her heels began their singing as they came towards him. One thing was sure; she wasn’t sneaking up on anyone.

 

Not in those heels.

 

It always intrigued him how she moved so quickly and nimbly in them despite her build.

 

“This is a strange place to apologize in,” she said blandly as she entered the room.

 

“It works, does it not? I’m sorry. I had a very rough weekend.”

 

Grace walked closer and put a warm hand that had a curiously cold spot against his cheek. “I can help you forget,” she said huskily.

 

Dapo almost tripped as he stepped back. “I don’t doubt that,” he responded quickly, “but it’s not the time or the place. Right now I need your help to straighten up.”

Here’s hoping you’ll stay here…stay with me through the duration of this series – and not only that; you’ll share your thoughts, opinions and feelings.

 

Here’s hoping you’ll enjoy – thoroughly enjoying reading.

 

Have an amazing week – don’t forget to slow down and smell the ‘flowers’.

 

Thank you.!
