In 2021, and my friend was finally ready to settle down. He was a Lagos guy, doing well for himself, and had fallen hard for a beautiful girl. She was an undergraduate at UNIZIK in Awka, but her parents were rooted in Asaba. After months of planning, the big day had arrived: the official introduction on a Friday.
He drove into Asaba from Lagos, full of hope and big plans. His brother and another friend came in from Owerri to stand by him. The ceremony at her parents’ house was picture-perfect. Smiles were exchanged, drinks were poured, and hands were shaken. He even dropped a heavy envelope of cash, the customary fee required just to be handed the official traditional marriage "list." As far as he was concerned, he was a married man in waiting.

With the Friday formalities concluded, everyone went their separate ways. His brother and friend hit the road back to Owerri. His bride-to-be kissed him goodbye, supposedly catching a ride straight back to her hostel in Awka to prepare for classes. With a full heart, my guy fired up his engine and got on the expressway, aiming to conquer the long drive back to Lagos before nightfall.
But the universe had a different itinerary.
Barely out of town, the temperature gauge on his dashboard spiked. His engine was overheating. By the time he managed to limp the car to a local mechanic and get the issue sorted out, the sun was already dipping below the horizon. It was past 5:00 PM. Knowing the risks of the Lagos-Benin expressway at night, he made the practical choice: he found a decent hotel in Asaba, checked in, and decided to hit the road at first light.

By 10:00 PM, the walls of the hotel room were closing in on him. Restless and unable to sleep, he decided to take a late-night drive to clear his head and get a feel for the city's nightlife. He didn't have a destination in mind, but the neon lights and pulsing bass of Asaba led him straight to Pinnacle.
It was the city's premier spot, packed with people living for the weekend. He was just taking in the scene when the breath was knocked completely out of his lungs.
There, in the middle of the lounge, bathed in the strobe lights and dressed for a night she would never tell him about, was his fiancée. The same woman who was supposed to be in her UNIZIK dorm room. She wasn't studying. She was living it up in Asaba, completely oblivious to the fact that the man who had just paid for her hand in marriage was standing a few feet away, watching his future shatter.
My phone rang just before midnight.
"Kris..." His voice was hollow, trembling with a kind of devastation I had never heard before. "Kris, see babe wey I just drop money make them use bring list for me today." He didn't have to explain further. The raw, suffocating pain in his voice told me everything. He was breaking apart in a city where he was entirely alone, trapped in a nightmare he couldn't wake up from. I knew I couldn't just offer words of comfort over the phone. I needed to step in.
I barely slept. First thing Saturday morning, I was at the park in Owerri, jumping into the first bus heading to Asaba.

When I finally got to his hotel, he looked like a ghost. He tossed me his car keys without a single word. I packed his things, put him in the passenger seat of his car, and took the wheel. I drove him all the way back to Lagos, navigating the heavy silence.
I stayed with him for the rest of the weekend, making sure he ate and just being a presence in the room so he wouldn't have to face the collapse of his life alone. Come Monday morning, I caught a flight from Lagos back to Owerri because of work, leaving him to pick up the pieces.
It has been years since that Friday in 2021.

Time is supposed to heal all wounds, but a betrayal that cuts that deep leaves a permanent scar. Till date, he hasn’t recovered, and he hasn't made a single move to try getting married again. All it took was one overheating engine to save him from a lifetime of lies, but a heartbreak, the cost of that truth

My colleague resigned yesterday after working with the company for almost nine years.

We all assumed he’d found a better-paying job.

Before leaving, he walked around shaking everyone’s hand.

When he got to me, he smiled and said,

“Check the second drawer of your desk after I leave.”

I laughed because I thought he was joking.

An hour later, I opened the drawer.
