‘how’s your mummy like?’ Ann asked placing the dishes on the dinning. Her mum had gone out for a church programme leaving just she and Emmy in the house.
‘my mummy? People say i’m the carbon copy of my mother and thats somehow true, my mum and i look alike alot. She’s a tall chocolate skinned woman just like me’
Ann laughed. Tall, chocolate skin, just like Lex. She knew something wasnt right here but she couldnt place her fingers on it.
She felt creepy just thinking about this Fiona Jay. She wanted to meet her and know the kind of lady she was and also figure out somethings.

‘the only flaw on my mummy’s body is the large scar on her back. She said when she was younger, she was involved in a fire accident and thats where she got the scar’ Emmy continued taking a bite of the tasty pancakes, somehow, she had grown to love the pancakes Ann made.
Ann raised a brow ‘a fire accident? Tell me about it’
‘she didnt tell me much. She just told me that when she was three her house caught fire. She managed to escape when a neighbour of theirs helped her through the window. She said all her family members perished in the fire accident’
‘hmm, really?’ Ann said waving it aside, she was going to get more information. She was sure this wasnt mere coincidence. What if Fiona had survived? ‘how old are you Emmy, you speak words bigger than your age’

Emmy smiled brightly ‘whenever mummy was around, she always gave me English tutorials, she never wants me to slack in English Language. She said that has always been her favourite subject from childhood’
That rang a bell. Everything was coming together in pieces now. Everything was linking.
‘oh! Your mother must be a very nice person’

The child looked down and bit her lips ‘but nobody likes my mummy, she has no friends and everybody despises her. They feel she’s very proud and annoying. Mummy is very nice, they just dont know whats inside of her’

Ann smiled and took her hands ‘it doesnt matter what people think about your mummy, what matters is what you think of her my darling’
‘mummy hardly had time for me. She’s always leaving me with aunty Rebecca, that wicked woman. And whenever she’s around, she doesnt stay long, we chat and play a little before she leaves. I dont know why mummy is not coming back for me, she’s never done this before’
‘oh dont say that my love! I already told you that your mum is coming to pick you up soon. She just has to be in a very important place thats all’ she kissed her forehead ‘dont worry, when my mother comes back, we’ll go to a playground, have you ever been to a playground?’
‘a playground?’ Emmy giggled ‘no, i’ve never been to a playground’
‘dont worry, you’ll be to one this evening’
Ann smiled. She could feel it. She could smell it. It was going to be shocking but she was very sure.

‘why is your mummy’s surname Jay?’
‘oh that? It was gotten from Johnson. You know the initial J…so she spelt it….Jay. Her real name is Fiona Opeyemi Johnson’
Yes! Fiona was alive.
