chapter4

As their love continued to grow, Adebayo and Rose found themselves spending more and more time alone together, their hands lingering on each other's skin, their gazes burning with desire. It was weeks before their final exams the inevitable happened. One night, as they sat curled up on Adebayo's sofa, the inevitable happened. Rose, her eyes smoldering, leaned towards Adebayo, her lips brushing against his.

Adebayo, his heart racing, returned her kiss, his hands exploring her body, their passions igniting like wildfire. As their kisses deepened, the world around them faded away, their surroundings no longer a matter of concern. Adebayo and Rose, driven by desire, made their way to his bedroom, their clothes falling to the floor, their hearts pounding in unison. In the heat of the moment, they came together, their bodies entwined, their love and lust combining into a force that could not be denied. Adebayo and Rose, consumed by passion, found themselves swept up in the throes of love, their hearts and bodies becoming one. In the hours that followed, Adebayo and Rose's lovemaking took on a life of its own, their breaths mingling as their bodies moved in perfect harmony. As the sun began to rise over Ife, their passion finally spent, Adebayo and Rose lay together, their hearts beating as one, their bodies still tangled in the sheets. Adebayo, gazing at Rose's sleeping form, felt a sense of peace wash over him, his love for her now cemented in the most intimate of ways. In the days that followed, Adebayo and Rose found themselves drawn even closer together, their bond now forged in the fire of their passion. They shared long conversations, their fingers intertwined, their laughter filling the air.

Three weeks after their fateful night together, Adebayo and Rose found themselves faced with the challenge of their final exams. The weight of the studies and their relationship combined created a maelstrom of stress and anxiety. But as they huddled together in Adebayo's study, poring over their notes, they found a sense of solace in each other's presence. Rose's reassuring smile, and Adebayo's gentle touch, each offered a moment of peace amidst the chaos. With their days of studies complete, Adebayo and Rose found themselves in their distinguished hallowed halls of the exam hall. In the wake of their exams, Adebayo and Rose found themselves not spending time together with each other like they used to. Because they were not in the same department, they couldn't spend time with each other like they used to, Adebayo and Rose found themselves pulled apart by the disparate demands of their fields of study. Though they longed for each other's company, the rigors of their departments kept them at arm's length, their schedules no longer aligning. Each night, as they retired to their respective rooms, their longing grew more pronounced, their love tested by the pressures of their academics.

But Adebayo, his heart torn by his conflicting priorities, remained steadfast in his commitment to his education. As the exams wore on, Adebayo and Rose found themselves on parallel tracks, their paths diverging as their focus narrowed to the tasks at hand. On the final day of exams, as the final year students of the university breathed a collective sigh of relief, Adebayo rushed down to go wait outside Rose's examination as a surprise for her. When Rose emerged, her face a mix of emotions, Adebayo knew something was wrong. '' Adebayo,'' Rose said, her voice trembling. '' We need to talk.'' Adebayo, seeing the gravity of her words, nodded and followed her to a quiet spot on campus.

'' I'm pregnant,'' Rose blurred out, tears welling in her eyes. Adebayo, his mind reeling, struggled to process Rose's words. He reached out and took her hands, his finger entwining with hers, his gaze steady and focused.'' Nadia,'' he said, his voice soft but firm,'' I want you to know that I'm here for you, no matter what. We'll get through this together.'' Rose, her shoulders sagging with relief, leaned into Adebayo's embrace, her tears falling onto his shoulder. '' I was so scared to tell you,'' she said, her voice small and shaky.

In the month that followed, Adebayo and Rose, now united in their decision, to keep the baby, graduated from university, their love and commitment to each other deepened by the challenges they faced. As they prepared to embark on the next chapter of their lives, Adebayo decided to stay in his apartment in  Ile Ife for a while longer, inviting Rose to move in with him. Together, they settled into a new rhythm, their days filled with laughter and love, their nights punctuated by the gentle sounds of their growing family.
