Chapter 63: Signal Corps

Luckily they had yet to be spotted so they still had some time to prepare their minds for what was to come. However, the smile on their faces remained, it was clear that though

unexpected, they still enjoyed the attention.

"Do I even have a choice?" Fadila replied as David nodded and he stepped out of the vehicle and immediately ran to open the door for her.

Though they had arrived incognito, as soon as he came out of the car, the reporters immediately spotted him.

Not sure who he was, there was a small pause that lasted a few seconds before several of the reporters came rushing towards them.

However due to the wait, the security team had already made it to them as they surrounded the couple as they made their way into the venue.

Despite rushing towards him, not many of them actually knew who he was after all. He wasn't exactly that popular.

"David!"

David heard a voice call his name and turning, he could see his brother... Well his cousin who was dressed in native attire who was seated on one of the many seats inside the venue.

"Who?... Ah! " David shouted as he went to hug the man before him.

"I didn't think you guys would even make it" David said as he let the man go

"Well how could we, Small David of those days is now the founder of a big company"

"Shey this one dey whine1 me no 1" David said as he laughed

"Good day" Fadila interjected

"Ah and you must be the Fadila he wouldn't shut up about, it's nice to meet you. Oh I'm Augustine by the way, just call me Austin" Austin said

He was a fairly... Sorry very tall guy standing at a height of over seven feet tall, seemed to be darker than charcoal even if the rest of his family took after their mother and were fair in complexion.

"Well thank you, it's a pleasure to meet you, you know this one doesn't like going home"

"Omo if na you too, you no go like go home, that place is stressful" Austin said as he joked "Was it only you that came?"

"No, your sister is here but I think she went to do something, just do what you're supposed to do, I'll tell all of them later that you've come" Austin said understanding that this wasn't a time to catch up on things.

"Okay then no problems, I'll see you guys soon" David replied as he happily turned around and they continued on their way.

Soon another call was heard but this time, it was for Fadila but unlike him, it was her father.

The man wasn't all that tall, he stood at a height of six foot, add or remove two to three inches.

Dressed in standard Hausa traditional outfit, the man could be seen standing just before the main entrance of the venue which meant that there was no escaping him.

"Daddy!!" Fadila screamed as she immediately ran to hug him

Even in the she called her father, you could tell that they were rich. Following behind her, David walked slowly, this was the second time he was meeting the man.

He couldn't lie to himself, despite his current power and all, the man was still intimidating. Of course, he was a lot better now than when he first met the man but the fear was still there.

Well... Technically the fear this time came from the fact that the two were now actually dating and were no longer just friends.

"Ah my boy, David... " The man said after separating from his daughter

"Good morning sir"

"Ha, see this one acting like a stranger, come here" The man said as he pulled David into a huge hug

"I always knew you would do well" he said as soon as he pulled away from the hug

"Thank you sir, well your daughter helped make it what it is today" David replied professionally

"Stop the humility boy, you have done well and I can see that the two of you have finally gotten together, I was beginning to question if you were gay" the man said as their faces immediately turned red

"Ah.. No sir" David said not knowing whether to cry or laugh at the man's remark.

"Don't overthink it... Also you people should run inside, I see her mother coming if not you two will not leave here" he said

"Okay sir, we go on now"

"Wait before you go, you know I have yet to meet your people"

"Oh they are over there, I don't know how many of them came but I know my brother is there" David replied while pointing out the location to him

"Okay then, I'll see you people after" He said as he began walking away.

Seeing the man go, Fadila immediately hit him in the chest as David began to smile

"See your mouth like sir" Fadila said in a mocking tone as David's smile got even bigger

"You don't have to mock me, okay, it's your father" David said to defend himself

"Hello, Mr David" a new voice was heard as David turned to its source

It was a dark man, his features showed that he was probably from the Hausa tribe or one of its

member tribes. He was dressed in a suit and in his hand was an ID.

"General Mohammed, Signal corps" The man said as he handed over the ID

"Authencity?" David asked while looking at it

[It's real] Nous replied as David nodded and handed it back

"Well welcome but I don't recall having any business with you people" David said

"True, however your work requires our attention... Would it be possible for us to take later on

in a more private setting" The man asked

"Truthfully, yes but legally no, she should be the one you all are meeting" David replied pointing towards Fadila who had been quiet the whole time

....

1. 'Whine' This word... At least in pidgin can be interpreted as "playing with"... Which makes the sentence "U dey whine me" mean "Are you playing with me?"
