Lagos Fake Love – Part 2: Kashali’s Success
After the heartbreak, Kashali did not chase love again.
He chased purpose.
The pain Anita gave him became fuel. While others slept, Kashali worked. He took extra shifts, learned new skills online, saved every naira, and stayed away from anything that would distract him.
Lagos was still hard.
Transport was still expensive.
Life was still unfair.
But Kashali was different now.
He moved with silence.
Months later, he started a small side hustle. It wasn’t big, but it was honest. Slowly, customers began to trust him. One brought two people. Two brought ten.
Grace found effort.
Years passed, and the boy who once begged love to stay became a man people begged to work with.
New apartment.
Better clothes.
Respect.
One afternoon, his phone buzzed.
Unknown number.
“Hi Kashali… it’s Anita.”
The same voice that once made him weak.
She said she had been thinking about him. She said she missed how kind he was. She said she wanted them to try again.
Kashali smiled.
Not with anger.
Not with revenge.
But with understanding.
Some people remember you only when life stops favoring them.
He wished her well.
And ended the call.
Because the man he had become could never return to the boy who accepted less.
Kashali finally understood something about Lagos:
Lose fake love.
Find real growth.
And this time, the city smiled at him.
