Chapter 25 Fadila
25 Fadila
Even he couldn't find a good use for such a powerful device so Nous had naturally put down the idea. If he wanted to enter the phone industry, then he could simply create a phone with a much better and optimized processor.
Even the current phone was already high end so there was really no need to top it instead he should focus on other things hence he came up with the holographic device.
It could be as small as a ring or a simple smartwatch etc and above all. Due to the holographic nature of said device, it would function as both a mobile phone and also a laptop or PC.
He could also put in all the 'quantum' he wanted into the device. Yes, he was now obsessed with quantum technology.
Well, in truth, he was just much more interested in it and wanted to see the idea come to fruition. Anyone who learnt more about them would behave exactly like he was.
[The router is indeed a good idea, but it would require you creating an entirely new internet over the current one, we can create that but it isn't something that can be done quickly] Nous replied
"I expected but it will be worth it... assuming the Event doesn't happen as soon as we expect, we could go into that" David suggested.
*Ringtone*
[Sir, you have a call from Fadila] Nous said drawing the attention of the distracted man who put the last box into the car and closed it.
"What does she want now?" David asked as he mentally ordered Nous to receive the call
"Hello!" An excited voice came from the other side
"Hello, smallie, how are you now?" David asked immediately
"I'm fine, it's surprising that you can even pick up my call" the other party said as David smiled
Fadila was a fellow course mate and unlike the many in the class. She lived just a few blocks away from where he stayed.
Due to the somewhat close proximity, the two had developed a close relationship and from his reaction, anyone could tell that he had a huge crush on her however as the standard introvert, he never brought it up with her.
"I should be asking you why you suddenly remembered that I exist?" David replied in a playful manner
"Ah, David you have come again, anyway I wanted to know if you would like to come with me, let's go shopping"
"Ah!!, so basically you want me to come over so you can suck my money away abi?" David said remixing her words as she began laughing.
"Wahala!, this boy you won't let someone rest... just because you sponsored my ice cream that one time now, I won't hear word again" Fadila replied
"Ice cream?... my dear, when the ice cream is more than seven thousand Naira, it is no longer ice cream, it's now gold" David complained in an exaggerating tone
"Okay but are you coming or not?" Fadila asked
"Sure, in fact I also have something to show you" David announced with a smile as he got into the car.
Waving goodbye to all that came out to bid him farewell, David immediately drove out of the compound and began his minor journey to her house. Since she didnt live that far, David arrived after just a few minutes of driving.
Soon he saw the gate that separated her street from the rest of Gwarimpa estate, the gate was... well damaged as one should expect from cheap estate managers. David ignored the gate as he drove in.
Driving slowly since the road wasn't exactly made for any more speed that what he was already going. As he passed, he could feel all the eyes on the car especially its logo. A Lamborghini urus may look like a normal SUV but its logo that was displayed clearly on its hood made it stand out like a sore thumb. He could see children and teenagers tapping their friends as they pointed at the car.
Watching all these interactions made him smile as a sense of pride took root in his heart. The car alone put him in the upper echelons of wealth in the country after all who exactly spends two hundred million Naira on a car.
[Remember not to let it get to your head sir, all this will become meaningless soon] Nous suddenly said
"I know, I know, just let me enjoy it while it lasts" David said as he pulled over in front of his destination.
The house was a simple three storey building with some fancy ornamental plants all over the place, but it still didn't cover up the peeling paint, the waterlogged walls etc. In summary, the house was impressive but that was all
Turning off the car, David stepped out and immediately entered the compound. He walked straight to the now familiar apartment.
Like him, Fadila had her apartment all to herself but unlike him, this was only because she came from an incredibly rich background. Gwarimpa may be the country's biggest estate, but it was also amongst the list of most expensive estates to stay in.
*Knock knock*
David knocked on the door and he stood waiting as he watched many of her neighbors stare at him. He didnt get why they were staring at him so much after all he was a regular in these parts.
Them, staring at him while he was in the car was understandable but at the moment, he wasn't in it and these people shouldn't relate him to it after all they always see him often.
[Sir, it would be even more weird if they ignore you as they passed. You look completely different from the past] "Oh... that's true" David said remembering that he was not wearing his usual clothes today.
He had changed his wardrobe... or at least he had bought some new clothes, but all the new clothes were formal clothes so at the moment, he was wearing a black turtleneck and some black trousers along with a new pair of white sneakers
