I'm definitely going with Lara Croft; Angelina Jolie, hands down hahahaha. What a joy it would be to share a table with her while staring at her amazingly wonderful scaled lips and her eyes. She is a lady of grace and poise. She is classy and I admire her cause, especially the humanitarian path she is on.

It's going to be an amazing weekend because I would pick a place that is fancy for her kind of person. I would enjoy the adoration of having to hold her hand as I guide her into one of the most exquisite restaurants here in Nigeria; "Olawalium Mi Amor" Restaurant. I would have her hotel designed and she would be ushered right there from the airport. She's flying in on Friday and the dinner reservations would be that same Friday night. She's landing in Nigeria in the morning so she would have enough time to rest before our 7 pm dinner reservations. She's walking into her hotel with a Nigerian customized Ankara with perfect head gear and wrist beads. With her height and ability to carry herself, I know she will rock this Ankara attire so well. I'm getting the best of the best Ankara and not lace because I know how modest she is.

I'm picking her up myself and then ushering her into our dinner reservations. I'm making her try some local delicacies. She will surely have a taste of Nigerian Jollof Rice because that's how we do it here. Hahahaha. If she can handle alcohol, I would want her to try our palm wine too but not without a warning.

We are definitely going to talk about her life as an actress, as a mother and also her movie journey. I know she started out with her father back in the 80s. I would ask her what has changed from then till now. The perks of movies now compared to back then. I would ask her what she missed about movies then and what she is enjoying about movies now. Ah... We are going to talk about Mr and Mrs Smith's movie apart from the Tomb Raider movie that she featured in as Lara Croft. They remain one of the best classics to me.

I would commend her interest in the adoption of the children she took under her wings and ask her what motivated her to do that. A lot has been said in the eyes of the media but I always love the first-hand information coming from her. She's blessed with 3 of those adopted kids and I would sit down with excitement as she speaks about each one of them glowingly and what makes each of her children special from a parent's perspective.

Yes, this dinner is all about her but if she asks me any question, I would gladly oblige her and give her the answers she seeks. It's going to be talks centered around movies, and her life as a mother and actress. How she managed to balance things and what motivates her to do all the things she is doing. What she thinks about life and a peek into how her upbringing has shaped her perception of humans, life and the things she is doing.

Saturday is going to be all about fun as I have three different places lined up for her. We are visiting the beach where she can be in close proximity to nature and feel the coolness of the breeze. We are also visiting a recreational center where I would allow the child in her to come alive as we both try our hands on Bouldering and Trampoline while playing some video games too...shooting preferably since I want her to re-enact some Tomb Raider move hahahaha. The last place we would be visiting would be horse riding and gun shooting. I've always wanted to know how holding a gun feels. She's definitely showing me some of her shooting skills. After this, I'm taking her back to her hotel so she can catch some early sleep before her trip back to the United States Sunday morning.

Friday is all for getting to know the woman behind the name while Saturday is all for fun. She will take a lot of our local snacks here but the major appeal would be the kind of food I would introduce her to. She can't recover from the sweetness of these meals.

Thank you for your time.

My pen doesn't bleed, it speaks. I am love's chemical content in human form and that's why I advise people to take a dose of "Olawalium" daily. 🙈
