Wrong Number
Episode 35
I left home early on Friday morning as I needed to see Lizzy first at the bank where she works. She introduced me to some policies. I intend to take on the policy.
I was directed to Lizzy’s office. On my way down the banking hall, I ran into my lodge mate back in school.
“It’s a lie…Bola!” I couldn’t believe my eyes.
“Pamilerin!” she called out and we hugged each other.
“What are you doing here” I asked
“I work here, an IT student (Industrial Training)
“Wow! Bola I’m so happy for you. I’m glad you did not give up on yourself.
“Thanks, I got admission a year after I left school and here I am”
“Congrats dear, the downfall of a man, is never the end of a man. How are your parents?”
“They are fine, when we got home that day, they never stop talking about you”
“Really, I’m sorry I lost your contact”
“Pamilerin! I almost gave up but I held on to your advice and made up my mind to be a better person”
“Bola I never knew you were expelled from school until that day your parents came to pack your things” I explained
“I believe you, I knew you had no idea. But those who knew preferred to gossip behind my back rather than tell me the truth”
“Anyways people can be funny at times, that’s why its good to surround yourself with good people”
“You are right, I’ve learnt my lessons. Now I only associate with people that add value to my life”
“Nice, I feel elated to see how well you are doing. Thank God for your supportive parents”
“My dear I couldn’t have done it without them, I’m grateful to God for giving me such Parents”
“My regards to them”
“I will, so what brings you to the bank?” she asked.
“I came to see a friend for official and unofficial matters” I said smiling.
“Who is that?”
“Mrs Lizzy Paul”
“The Loan officer! She’s my Boss, I work under her. I’ll lead you to her office”
Bola tapped the door lightly and opened the door she let me in first.
“Good morning banker” I said
With a smile.
“You finally show up, thank God for midterm break. Good morning dearest” Lizzy stood up from her seat and hugged me.
“Please have your sit” she offered.
“Thanks. How’s your hubby and your little man?”
I asked referring to David, Lizzy’s son.
“They are fine. Father and son are now 5 and 6”
“That’s good, I like that”
“Bola thanks for bringing her in, you can leave now”
Lizzy said
“Bola is my friend, I ran into her on my way down here” I informed her.
“Really, I thought she just led you to my office” she said innocently.
“Bola is a friend I lost contact with, my coming here today was really worth it”
“Happy reunion then” Lizzy said smiling.
“That reminds me, Bola let me have your contact” I said. We exchanged numbers while Lizzy was busy with some paper work.
“Lizzy me I need a favor o”
She looked up “Let’s hear it”
“Please help me retain Bola after her IT. At least you wanted to help me secure a job here but I declined because I don’t like banking jobs”
“So you want to do change by batter, right” she said laughing.
“Whatever, just help me please…”
“No problem, I’ll try my best” she said
“Thank you” Bola and I chorused. She was so happy.
“Now back to business” Lizzy said
“Yes, official mode activated” I said jokingly.
“Bola please make some coffee for your friend”
“Alright ma” she said and prepared the coffee.
“I’m not in charge of the policy program but I’ll take you to the person in charge” Lizzy stated while I was sipping my coffee.
“Ok, can we leave once I’m done with the coffee?”
“Sure”
“Cos I’m still going to Daniel’s place”
“You mean his office?”
“No, the mansion”
“He’s not going to work?” she asked surprised
“It’s like we are both on midterm break” I said and we laughed.
“Anyway, that’s cool, you need time together to talk about so many things. My regards”
“I will thanks dear ” I said
Some minutes later, I was through and took my leave.
