Tell me why you are marrying Alex?
(Rere walks to her apartment and she sees Roti waiting)
Rere: (walks past him and unlocks her door) come in
INT. RERE’S HOUSE- NIGHT
Roti: (he follows her inside and looks around) I hope your lover is not hiding around here
Rere: (drops her bag on the sofa in the sitting room) don’t be ridiculous Roti
Roti: how about you tell why Alex is your fiancée or better still, start from why Alex is in Abuja?
Rere: we need him Roti
Roti: (looking confuse) for what exactly?
Rere: for the election, he is a good lawyer that actually cares for poor people. People respect him, if they see him standing close and supporting his father, they will definitely vote for him
Roti: that is a good strategy Rere but we don’t need him. Everything we need to make Nate Ehosa the president for the second time, we have that already
Rere: why do we always have to make things hard for ourselves when we have an easier way on ground?
Roti: easier way you say and how is that working out for you? As far as I am concern, he is still not supporting his father
Rere: I am still convincing him
Roti: by sleeping with him
Rere: (looks upset) that is uncalled for Roti and frankly I don’t know why you are so concerned about who I sleep with, it is none of your fucking business
Roti: but it is your fucking business if I am sleeping with Esosa
Rere: that is about work and you know it
Roti: and is this not about work too, Alex clouded your judgement once remember. You made me do the work that we were supposed to do together because of Alex
Rere: that is not fair Roti
Roti: it is not like I am lying, you have no idea how hard it was to do the job meant for two people alone
Rere: why are you talking like you were all alone, you had Esosa and Richard
Roti: and before I met them?
Rere: (moves closer and held his hand) I am sorry, for letting you both our jobs together but I am here now.
Roti: if you are sorry, tell me why you are marrying Alex
Rere: what other reason will it be if not for love, you said it yourself that he clouded my judgement, why will that happen if I am not in love with him
Roti: you are using him Rere
Rere: what are you talking about?
Roti: you are marrying him for the same reason why the president has to win the election
Rere: now I am lost, I really don’t know what you are talking about
Roti: if I walk out of here Rere without getting answers to my questions, I am not asking you anything again
Rere: I have answered all I could
Roti: alright then (he turns and leaves the apartment. When he gets to the front of the elevator, he brings out his phone and press some buttons, then he put the phone to his ear) hello Cash (pause) I have a job for you
