Aduke - Season 1 - Episode 18

He was very protective of her daughter, he said she doesn’t have a future with me, only if I knew he was right.

He said I don’t worth her, he said alot of crazy things that could make me back off on Adesewa, but I didn’t, instead it draws me more closer to her and our bond began getting stronger.

She was perfect, I see no flaws in her, she was sincere, righteous and caring.
She thought me things I can never forget in my life, she taught me how to put my thoughts down in paper. Somehow she’s the source of my writing, even though I have it in me, she just show me the way.

Our memories together was beautiful, mostly I don’t want to write about it, cos every time I do, everything got delayed.

One day I went to visit her and I met her arguing with her father. When her father saw me, he looked into her eyes and asked her.
” did he know, do you tell him ” he asked. Adesewa couldn’t answer the question, she just ran out of his view with tears in her eyes.
I ran after her but she shut the door behind her before I could hold a grab.

I went back to the living room and her dad was still like
” so she didn’t tell you, so you know nothing? ” he said then he wave his head in a pitiful way . I asked him but he refused to tell me.

I asked Adesewa this question for a month, but she didn’t tell me. She said she just want to enjoy the remaining beautiful part of the world.

Two month after, we were together in the living room watching a movie, when she just collapsed and blood were running out of her mouth and nose.

I was scared, I never experience something like that before, I called on her escort and they rush her to the hospital, that was when I got the answer to the questioned I’ve been asking.

She have leukemia, a cancer she got from birth, the cancer was discovered late due to the fact that she was raised by a man and not a woman. He who lose a mother lost a precious thing.

She stopped responding to treatment a month after we met. And when a cancer patient stop responding to treatment, chance of surviving is reduced to 3%.

We’ve know each other for more than 9 months, all these while she was sick and I never know.

She was scared of telling me, and who am I to blame? Is it God? Or is it the devil.

That was when I understand what his father meant by saying I have no future with Adesewa, he just fails to include memories. And that’s what I got with her, no future but just a memory.

The doctor said she got not 50-50 chance of surviving but 95-5 of surviving If we fly her out to china. I was ready to go for the 3% chance.
I told the doctor to prepare her for extraction that I will get the money to fly her out. Everyone has lost hope in her, but I held on to the little I got.

Without telling anyone, I began making arrangements for the money. The money was quite much, I didn’t have it but I went out to ask for money from people that I know.

When her father saw my determination and commitment, he persuade himself to have the same hope .

He paid for the money while I was still gathering the little that I have which was not up to half of the money needed to fly her out.
