Saved by Love - Episode 20
Adara looked up from the design she was sketching behind her desk one late evening to see her store opened by Akinlolu and a fair skinned lady come in on her CCTV.
The lady was wearing a lemon colored crop blouse with a heart designed on it with sequins and a black skirt that had a split at her lower thigh, flat black slip-on adorned her foot and her braided hair was packed up in a bun. Adara murmured,
“Not bad.”
Some minutes later, Adara heard a knock on her office door and she answered,
“Come in please.” Akinlolu and the lady she saw earlier came in and she motioned for them to sit on the sofa while she sat on a single couch opposite them and she said,
“Akinlolu, this one that you visited us today, are we safe?”
“I try to show up, you know?”
“I have heard all about that . Won't you introduce your guest to me?”
“Sorry, this is Tara Thompson and babe, this is Adaramola Zamani. My sister and our wife.”
“Hmm, Akinlolu, how come you were able to catch a gold fish like this? She is a fresh girl, you must have gone to the market with your two eyes opened.” Adara said and they all laughed then she asked Tara,
“Hope you have been able to pick out some clothes?”
“Yes ma, the dresses are very beautiful and elegant.

. I just feel like shopping and shopping. I could buy the whole store.”
“Buy the whole store?”
“See her mouth, if you buy the whole store, there will be no Incognito and Ombré. You want to send us out of the market, huh?”
“Let me hear you well. This is Incognito label, no?”
“Yes. Any problem?” Adara asked, exchanging a perplexed look with Akinlolu.
Tara suddenly screamed “Oh my God!”
“Okay, that's enough screaming for one day. You are not at home Tara!” Akinlolu said, placing his hands on her shoulder to calm her down,
“Sorry. I am so sorry. Akinlolu, you never told me you know the face behind Incognito, do you know what it means to be sitting face to face with her? No, you obviously do not know.” Tara rambled on with excitement in her voice,
“Funny you, what is big about seeing me face to face? We are just designing small small dresses and making small small money. We are not Gucci or
Marks and Spencer.” Adara said humbly,
“Aunty, you are teasing me, right? I have been looking through your every style on the net and being saving so I can come change my closet. So, this is where the great Incognito is holed up.”
“Can we like talk about something else apart from shopping? Jeez!” Akinlolu said and they both turned on him and talked about other important things.
Akinola had travelled back to America a month before as his mission at the bank had been fulfilled but he and Adara talked online and did video calls.
Akinlolu introduced Tara to his brothers over video calls since they were both outside Nigeria.
