I sat wondering if I should call her or not. I had decided calling her would be a better option than calling Tunde, whatever the case I needed someone who would get her to listen to me.  
Mrs Adebayo instantly liked me the first day we met. I still remember that day like it was yesterday, Paris had invited me over for dinner with her family, our relationship was about to take a higher level. I remember been very nervous especially meeting with her father, I changed my clothes six times before deciding what to actually wear.

 Paris came to open the door for me, she looked so beautiful in my favorite dress, a pink sleeveless knee length, flay gown covered in red roses.

Read " Dawn of Love " by the same author ( OtseDavid )

. She wrapped her hands around mine as she introduced me to her dad as her boyfriend. His handshake was firm and his eyes were cold, his presence was domineering and his melodious baritone voice was commanding.

Paris excused herself to help her mother and Bisi in the kitchen or so she said as a means of leaving us together to have our men talk. It was the longest 15minutes of my life as he asked every sought if question from what do you do for a living to do you really love my daughter.
 
Oh how relieved I was when I heard a clear sweet voice that sounded much like that if Paris say "food is ready' but even that did not stop his unending questions, or take his eyes from off me

. Mrs Adebayo could not be more understanding as she said " oh dear would you help me take this to the kitchen "she handed a bowl to me, I obliged without a word.

"Looked like you needed some break " she said when we got to the kitchen. I laughed nervously proving her right.

"Don't mind him, he is a sweet heart when you get to know him, I guess his not yet ready to share his little princess with another man."

"I understand, I would do same" I managed to say

"I see my daughter has very good taste you are such a fine young man" she said as she winked at me

We both laughed, and headed back to the siting room with she holding my hands.

The phone rang and she picked almost immediately, her voice came as sweet as ever

"Hello Fred, how are you"

"Good afternoon ma I am very well" I said not to sure of what to say or even how to start.

"Won't you come see Paris before she leave's"

"Am already on my way" I said rushing for my car keys.

She was leaving, not even mentioning it to me. 
I got into the compound in no time, all the while thinking if she had not told her mum about her father's death then I still have a chance.

A new ford jeep was parked in the drive way, with obviously a new driver standing by the opened door. I rushed to the main entrance, and there met both Paris and her mum coming out, with a huge hulk like looking guy, with thick beards and no hair on his head.
She stopped on seeing me, her mother gently pushed her forward in my direction while rubbing her back. I could not help but noticing the hulk like looking guy that held her luggage behind her, he was dressed in an all black English dressing with black shades to compliment the look.

"What do you want again' she said with a quiet voice not letting her mum hear her, she dragged me along away from her mother's view.

" you are leaving, you are leaving me Paris, I can't let you go".

"You can't stop me Fred, what don't you get when I say its over, am done with you. The only reason why you are not an unlicensed doctor sleeping in jail right now was because I once was stupid enough to love you"

"You still love me, I know it I can still feel it, listen everything you think is not true its Kunle that's behind this, he is trying to steal you from me because of................. A cherry red Toyata Camry drove in and of course it was Kunle. 

He came out smiling and walked to Paris giving her a hug like I was not even there.

I rushed at him, landing two powerful punch on his face, i could see his nose bleeding as he fell to the ground.

The hulk like looking guy came from nowhere grabbing me by my waist and lifted me with ease like a father would lift his two tear old child, I struggled to break free to no avail, his grip was so firm I wondered if I was held by human or machine.

I raised my back heel far enough to get him bellow the belt, he grunted, dropping me to the ground. 

I charged towards Kunle, that was now up and moving backwards. I grabbed him by his tie raising my hand to land more punches when something held my hand firmly.

I turned to see the hulk looking guy, he turned me around and with one hand tightly holding my shirt lifted me up to his face level.

With one swing of his right hand he covered my face with a slap that could wake the dead, I suddenly could not feel my face anymore as two more landed on my right cheek. 

Any resistance was long gone now as it seemed my face had been rammed into a wall. "Stop" I heard Paris scream, and I came crashing on the floor as he let me drop.

"Get out of hear this minute" she screamed at me "what's wrong with you".

I looked at the gorilla of a human, waiting for me to resist, I picked my self up turned, looking at Kunle with tears in my eye and walked to my car.
