The drive wasn’t usually long, since Fashion Today was at Oregun and she lived at GRA and both places were located in Ikeja. She picked up her black Gucci handbag which was resting on the front seat, alighted from her Hyundai sonata. She had sauntered a few steps before she locked the car with the remote.
