Doyin also resume at work and she love her workplace.
Abímbólá and Aduke can't stop calling Doyin to check how she is doing and she told them she is absolutely fine. Abímbólá and Aduke are grateful for this and they thanked Titi for her hospitality.
Titi's children came back home from school during the holiday and they were just as nice as their parent. They get along well with Doyin, After the holiday ends, they went back to school.
After some months, Dapo has a project to supervise in Lagos, so he came back to his Aunty's house, it's 2012.

Titi was just so happy to have him back, Doyin was glad to see him, Olaitan is also happy to have him back.
The four now lives together and everyone is just doing fine, however, Titi loves Doyin and want Dapo to have her, and she is ready to do anything to make this work, unknown to her, Dapo also has a crush on Doyin but don't know how to tell her.
She will call Dapo and told him to take a look at Doyin, praise Doyin and told him he will be fine if he have her, but Dapo isn't ready to admit that he loves her so he will tell his Aunty to stop.
"You know I love you, I want the best for you... This girl is.." but Dapo told her to stop, "Aunty, I know what's good for me."
Titi was surprised but she didn't stop telling him about Doyin.
Titi really loves Doyin's personality and believes she and Dapo will be okay.

After some time, it's a day to Titi's birthday, Dapo told Doyin that he need to get something for his Aunty and wish Doyin could join him. Doyin agreed to go with him. Doyin have Dapo an idea and it just makes a good sense, so they got the presents and as they were leaving the store, Dapo saw one of his long time friend, Joy.

The two greets and Joy was so happy to see him, Doyin was standing by as she watch the two, Dapo and Joy talk for a while and Dapo told Doyin to wait for him, he will be back very soon.
Dapo and Joy leaves.

Doyin saw a chair and sits, she was waiting for him to return, she waited till evening. When she didn't see him, she leaves.
She got home and was so angry wondering what would have happen to her if she didn't have any money with her.
Later that day, around past 7'o clock, Dapo arrives.
He quickly rushed in and asked Titi who was watching the TV about Doyin.
"Aunty, please where is Doyin?" He asked, Titi was wondering why he could be so disturbed but she told him, she is in her room.
Dapo went over to Doyin's room and knocked the door. Doyin opened the door and Dapo apologize for what he had done. He told Doyin that she is his friend and they left to check on another friend and he never know that he will stay so long.
Doyin was so angry and asked,
"So... What if I have no money?... How will I get home? This is wrong... You should have told me... I called you asking you when you will be back and you told me to wait, I was sitting there and ..and..."
But Dapo apologize, he begged her to forgive him, after a while, Doyin told him not to worry, she has forgiven him.
"Really." He asked.
"Yes and Goodnight." She said as she slammed the door.
Dapo left and went back to Titi.

The next morning, Dapo heard a knock on his door, he opened it and saw Doyin,
"Good morning, Breakfast is ready." She said.
Dapo was standing, surprised as he watch her as she leaves.
Later, Titi also join Doyin and was surprised that she had prepared the breakfast.
"You woke up so early today? but I told you to wait for me before you'll prepare anything." Titi asked.
"Happy birthday ma'am." Doyin replied her.
Titi smiled, "so... Because today is my birthday...you did this ." She checked it and smiled, "I like it, how did you know it's my favorite... I like food." She said as she laugh.
Dapo join the two.
"Doyin knows my favorite food." She said to him.
"Hmm....hmm?" Dapo replied still wondering what Doyin is up to.
Titi thanked Doyin for taking her time to prepare the meal. Olaitan join them with his present, and gave it to Titi.
Dapo and Doyin also gave their presents to her.
During and after the breakfast, Titi noticed Dapo and Doyin were kind of close, but she was quiet.
Later that day, numbers of friends, families and well wishers arrived to celebrate Titi's birthday, the truth is she deserves even more.
During the celebration, Doyin and Dapo look so close to Titi, She wonder and asked herself, "is it what I'm thinking?" If it is, she will be glad.
After the celebration was over, Titi called Dapo, She bless him for listening to her advice, she thanked him so much but Dapo didn't understand his Aunty.
"Aunty...thank you for the prayers and everything... The presents I gave you is just.."
But Titi cut in,
"Which presents? I'm not talking about the presents, it's you and Doyin."
"What, what happened?" He asked.
Titi told him she thought the two are now dating, but Dayo told him there is nothing as such.
"What? So what about?... But I saw you...both of you, you look so close, you think I won't know? you think I didn't see you?" She said.
"Doyin is just a friend, I'm also surprised at her attitude." He answered.
Titi was angry as she left Dapo's room and went to her room, Dapo followed her to stop her but he just can't. Doyin saw Titi when she was going into her room looking angry and saw Dapo.
She went to Dapo and asked him what is going on and why Titi is angry, but he told her not to worry.
After sometime, he went to Doyin and asked why she changed and acted the way she did today. Doyin smiled and told him, it's to show him that she is not angry and they can be friends even after what he did yesterday.
"What? Is that why you did what you did, following me all around and acting like we are more than a friend?" He asked.
"What's wrong with that?" She asked him.
"Listen, Aunty thought we are dating and when I told her there is nothing as such, she was angry." Dapo told her.
"Who? That's not possible, listen you are just a friend and..." She was still speaking when Dapo asked her.
"Did you hate me?"
Doyin was startled and confused,
"What are you talking about? If I hate you I will never act the way I did today." She said.
