I wasn't a surgeon but then I knew how to do most surgeries due to going to advanced med school. When I was a resident I broke many rules to save lives for example not performing surgeries.

Why follow the rule if a life will end because of it was my slogan. I ended up influencing some residents and got a lot of enemies for my fast recognition and awards and a lot of friends but that's a boring story. I came to Nigeria to try to live, not just bore my life to death. Meaning that I wanted to be less involved in the hospital.

Anyway why I am telling you this story is because I just finished an appendicitis operation. Nigeria had few competent surgeons indirectly meaning that I had few surgeons who worked for me. They were all busy at the time and the operation needed to be done ASAP. So much for being less involved in the hospital and not breaking any more rules.

I had to rush home to take my bathe because of endless procedures with Chukwuma must have put in place to annoy the shit out of me. It was the right thing he did but it didn't make it less annoying. If it were to be another day I wouldn't have been annoyed but today I had a date and I was just about to go late after specifically saying I won't.

If there is anything I hate it's breaking my word. This was going to be my first date with Wale and I just had to make the best first impression or I might just be screwed. The Universe is trying to mess with my life but I won't let it. Not today. Not when I have finally found the perfect man.

It was almost 2 when I was done with everything and I was on the verge of going crazy with panic. The idea that I'll be late for my date was life threatening. Not trying to be dramatic but it's the truth.

In my 24 years of living I've always tried to go early for any appointment or date although that changed slightly since I became a doctor as a result of emergencies and prolonged stay with a patients. But still I always tried to go early either in time or on time but never after time. I meant it when I said I hated African man time.

I left the hospital in a hurry and drove home like a mad woman. I almost kicked the door open when the key threatened to fall from my shaky hands. I was anxious and stressed already it was a miracle I wasn't having an anxiety attack. Finally opening the door I stripped myself of all clothing and rushed to have my bathe. I had been too impatient and anxious to do it after the surgery and it's compulsory for me that I had my bathe immediately after every surgery.

I practically blasted myself with soap scrubbing half of my body and leaving the remaining half for the water and soap to clean. I tried to keep the falling water away from my hair because there was no way that I would have the time to style it again before leaving. And as much as I didn't want to go late for my first date I didn't want to go tattered too. I just had to try to have both.

Drying myself up I wore the first pant and bra I saw in my locker hastily. Luckily they were of the same colour, blue and it was still s.e.xy like all other of my undies even with the cool colour blue. I didn't want to risk us actually getting down with me having undies that didn't match. I would die of embarrassment.

I threw a white shirt on and high waisted skirt making do with just lipstick. I combed my Brows and fixed my edges. With my natural curly hair there was no way I could risk going out without fixing my edges.

I was dressed simply but I used red heels to complement. Heels somehow made me feel over the top confident. I still looked beautiful though. I always looked beautiful no matter how I dressed. I used to tell my friends in highschool that my face could be burnt but I would Still be prettier than they were with a full face makeup. It wasn't me being narcissistic like most people thought it was me being honest.

Luckily I had styled my natural, twisted, tangled hair in the Morning and God had been so merciful to me that it hasn't loosened up until now. Even my edges were still laid but I still to do a little touching. I wanted to look perfect.

Satisfied with my look I rushed out of the room. I had less than 15 minutes to get to my date and each second counted so I had to make do of every second I got.
