“Ok ladies, gather around me and let us pray”, Yinka said. She prayed, “Father, open the gates of heaven and let my collection impress the members of the press, E! Entertainment TV, Kim K, and most importantly, let the world know that Africa is taking over the fashion landscape. Amen.” Yinka then continued, “Ok ladies, you can now go out there, rock the clothes and kick ass. Oh, and please don’t fall. That only looks good for supermodels, and as far as I can see Kate Moss is not in the house.”

“Akila, I can’t believe I have come this far girl!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! My clothes in a Fashion Week. Can it get any better?”, said Yinka, while gesticulating excitedly. Akila responded, “Yinka, I am so proud of you. After all, you deserve to be here.”

Then Yinka’s mood suddenly changed and she said, “Akila, there’s something I need to tell you. I have been feeling sick for the past few days. At first, I thought it was stress but girl, I think I am pregnant.” Akila looked lost and somehow shocked at the same time. She replied Yinka saying, “Oh my God Yinka, have you told Taiwo?” Yinka answered, “No honey, I haven’t. I want to make sure first. I know this is going to sound weird, but I have a pregnancy test in my purse and I don’t want to do it alone. Can you?… hmm, you know?” “Oh Yinka, of course. Lets go”, Akila said quickly.

They hurriedly went to the restroom. “Akila, I can’t pee on this damn thing. I can’t even see the target. Shit! These pregnancy tests are crap. Ok, I think I got it now. Nice, my hand just got some golden rain on it. Eww”, complained Yinka, in an irritating manner. “So now what? We wait right?”, asked Akila. Yinka replied, “Hmm, yes… Akila, according to what I read in school, no line means I am not pregnant, one line means one baby, and two lines, I will have twins.” Akila answered jokingly, “Yinka, are you sure you went to school dummy? One line means you’re not pregnant and two lines mean you’re pregnant.

After waiting a while, Akila sighed and said, “Ok Yinka, 10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1… Two lines! Yinka, congrats! You are pregnant for a professional basketball player.” Yinka exclaimed, “Oh my God Akila! No, no, no. This can’t be happening right now!”

Suddenly, they heard the voice of the runway coordinator through the speakers, “Yinka Anderson, please come to the runway for the closing.” “Shit!!!!!!!!!!!!! Akila. I’ll be back”, said Yinka quickly.

As Yinka was walking on the runway, she had a feeling of gratitude. First, because she was able to get over her tragic past, and then, because she was able to show the world that her roots hid glam and mystery. Yinka bowed to the public and was happy to see that Kim K and other famous figures like Kimora Simmons, the Olsen twins and the Williams’ sisters were present.

After the show, Yinka quickly spotted Taiwo. “Taiwo baby, what’s up? I appreciate you coming here to show some love to your girl”, said Yinka with a smile. Taiwo replied, “Yinka, your collection was so cool dude.” Yinka surprisingly asked, “Dude? Since when? You usually call me honey, mami or babe.” Yinka continued, “Taiwo, we need to talk… Taiwo, I know sometimes I act like a bitch. And to be honest, I am a bitch, but I also have feelings… and I am sorry that I haven’t been as committed as you wanted me to be. Honey, girls are like bees around you and well, I am not jealous, but I do mind. Taiwo, what I am really saying is that… hmm, we are pregnant.”

“Honey!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Here you are baby. I have been looking for you all over. I was just having a chat with J Lo. Oh sorry, excuse my manners, Am I interrupting something Yinka?” It was Ashley. Yinka was about to fall on her face. She recognized the long blond hair, the curves and the green eyes. Ashley continued, “Wow Yinka Anderson, nice to see you again.” “You mean you guys knew each other before?”, Taiwo asked blankly. Yinka answered, “Not really Taiwo. I mean, I think we met in a Starbucks and we shared some professional experiences in fashion. Nothing really major.” Turning towards Ashley, Yinka said, “Ashley, it is nice to see you again.” “Well Yinka, I hope to see you again at our wedding”, said Ashley, opening her 2011 Versace bag. She continued, “I wanted to use this opportunity to give you the invitation personally.” While this happened, Taiwo was looking at Yinka with great distress. Throughout his basketball career, he never got anybody pregnant. Besides, he truly cared about Yinka but he knew that she wasn’t ready for any commitment. All the same, Ashley was the wife he always wanted. “Yinka, we have to go. I will give you a call later”, said Taiwo. “Bye Yinka”, Ashley mumbled, giving her a hug, and whispering in her ear, “it was nice sharing my professional experience with you as well. You have a nice cunt.”

Yinka was frozen, not only because she was pregnant for her booty call and love of her life, but she also had sex with his fiancée. Suddenly, everything turned dark. Yinka couldn’t breathe and she lost hold of herself…

Next morning…

“Yinka, wake up.”, said mum. “Mum, what happened?”, asked Yinka. Mum worriedly responded, “You blacked out honey, but you and the baby are ok.” Yinka sadly answered, “Mum, I am so sorry. I didn’t want this to happen.” Mum comforted her and said, “It is ok angel. I understand. Taiwo is here. Are you ready to talk to him?” Yinka sighed and replied, “Ok mum, let him come in.” …
