Chapter 19

  TROUBLE

  Salamat and Saleem became best friends and they were always together whenever they were free.

  She introduced him to her parents as her friend and they welcomed him with open arms. Saleem was treated like a son by Salamat's parents and he felt at home whenever he was with them.

  Mrs. Ade who was working as an accountant with Buks International school was offered a job at UBA bank in PZ. She tendered her resignation letter the following day while Mr. Ade was still involved in business.

  He was able to raise money from the sales of his house at Ogun state to start the construction of a filling station, not far from the house. He was also in a corporate business with SUNSEED company.

  Saleem was intimidated by the lavishness of the furniture and decoration of Ade's home. He blushed at Mrs. Ade's remark that he was very handsome.

  "Has anyone ever told you that you are handsome?", she asked him unashamedly.
