30. INT. KEN’S OFFICE.DAY.
KEN is standing in his OFFICE, in front of a NEW DESIGN he’s making and close by on the STOOL is his LAPTOP that he punches intermittently on the KEYBOARD and a TAP comes on the DOOR and gently, it opens and NGOZI comes in clutching her HAND BAG.
KEN
Hi sweetie! You look splendid.
NGOZI
Why didn’t you show up in church yesterday?
KEN
You mean church?
NGOZI
No! I mean mosque!
KEN
I’m sorry, I was kind of busy that yesterday you.
NGOZI
You don’t need to be sorry about anything but sincerely, speaking, ken; I pity you a lot because you’re just taking the grace of God upon your life for granted.
KEN
Oh! No! Please save that preaching you’re about to begin for the future, I’m not in the mood for that now.
NGOZI
Are you ever in the mood for the things of God? anyway, I’m not here to bore you with preaching as you might think, I only came to see if you’re actually all right since you weren’t taking my calls.
KEN
Oh! As you can see I’m hale and hearty, anyway, thank you for your concern.

NGOZI
All right, I’m going back to my office; I will see you later.
KEN
Okay, I appreciate.
31. INT. DAN’S OFFICE.DAY.
KEN and DAN in the EXQUISITELY FURNISHED OFFICE, popping CHAMPAGNE merrily as they discuss.
KEN
I’m truly, happy for you man!
DAN
I give you all the credits! I wonder what I would have done if not for you; I will forever remain indebted to you.
KEN
Come on man! You’re the one to be praised here, you pulled this through, barely seventy-two hours you’ve already established you own chambers; this is great, I mean, you’re the man here!
DAN
No! I refuse to admit that, you’re the man here not me, your money made all this possible. What could have a wretch like me then do in my situation at that time? I owe you a lot ken, honestly, I do.
KEN
Come on bro! You owe me nothing, in fact right now, I feel I owe you more now as a bosom friend to ensure that your firm stands and I take a step immediately by becoming your first client. Hence forth, you’re now my personal as well as my company’s attorney with a monthly retainer of N2.5million.
DAN
Ken, you’re kidding, aren’t you?
KEN
You know me too well Dan, I don’t play jokes with things like this; come to my office later today, let’s sign the papers.
DAN
Ken, truly, I can’t thank you enough; in fact I lack words to express my profound gratitude to you…
KEN
It’s all right Dan; all I desire for you is to run a successful legal practice.
DAN
To be sincere, Ken, I haven’t seen a nice guy like you in all my life.
KEN
It’s nothing man!
DAN
All the same, God bless you man!
…to be continued.
