Must Read: Love and Revenge - Season 2 - Episode 30

Ann just couldnt find words to describe the beauty of this woman before her. Her beauty was one to behold. She was veryyy fair skinned, her colour shined like light. Her hair was dark and long. Her lashes were also dark and very long. She had a tattoo of an ant on her neck, another on her left arm, a scorpion, then on her wrists was written FIJAY.
This was Fiona. The almighty Fiona. The beautiful mother of Emmy.
‘so you have Emmy?’ came the nonchalant reply from Fiona. She hadnt even looked up from her marijuana to scan her well and Ann wondered the kind of human being she was.
The 9mm beside her didnt help matters, it sent chills down Ann’s spine.
‘uhm…uhm…ye…yes’ she found herself stammering. This wasnt what she had planned. What she had in mind was beating up the careless mother of Emmy, but meeting Fiona, she knew she had to couple herself.
Fiona took a long drag from her marijuana then looked up at her for the first time with a careless shrug ‘so?’

So? Ann was shocked to the bone, did Fiona understand her when she said she had Emmy? She wasnt sure.
‘i said i have your daughter, Emerald’ she said dragging the word daughter and Emerald.
‘and i’m asking, so? What has that got to do with me? Is that what brings you here?’
‘your daughter’

Fiona eyed her, then dragged from her marijuana ‘what is your name? I mean your full name’
‘Annabel Rowlands’
‘and who are you?’
‘who am i as in? I dont quite get you?’
‘how did you find Emerald?’
‘i met her at ONE TIME bar. I accidentally….’ she bit her tongue, was it safe to tell this dangerous looking woman that she had accidentally hit her daughter with her car. That could be disastrous.
‘you accidentally hit her with your car, i know about that’ Fiona said drawing a sharp and fearful gasp from her.
‘i…ho…how did….did you…did you….know abou…about that?’
‘forget that. So is that why you and your mother has been coming to that brothel to look for me? Or you think i didnt know? Even going as far as asking Shola for information’
Now that shocked her to the bone. Was it safe here? She had to ask herself. Fiona’s voice was quite stern. Maybe she should retrace her footsteps and hand over everything to Lex. This Fiona could kill.
‘i….’

‘ten million naira’
‘ten million what? What for?’
‘okay make it five. Give me five million and take that little witch with you. I dont need her’
‘i…dont…..quite….understand’
Fiona slapped her laps in exasperation ‘what dont you fuc.king understand young lady?’ She threw her marijuana away ‘look here, i mean business. I dont need Emmy, Rebecca doesnt want her, nobody wants her. Why dont you take her? Since you look like you love her angelic ways already’
‘oh so you know she’s angelic?’ Ann asked. She wasnt sure where the guts came from but she had to give this Fiona a piece of her mind, fu.ck her scary face and stern voice, she had lived this life before and she hadnt forgotten how to do it. She was going to give Fiona a piece of her mind. What kind of mother was she anyway?

‘so you know you have an angelic daughter? But then you had to deal with her this cruelly, with her angelic ways. At least you didnt say she had demonic ways. What kind of a mother are you anyways? I’m 26 and i know you’re 23, i dont have a child but i know what it means to love and care for a child because i came close to having one. Emmy is five years old, she’s a smart and beautiful kid, yeah i know, life has dealt all of us a hard blow, we’ve gone through alot in our life and thats the more reason we need to protect our kids, so they dont go through the same path we went through. Do you want Emmy to be like you? Smoke like you? Fu.ck men for money just like you? Kill like you? Become as useless as you are? Dont you want her to be the medical doctor you’ve always desired to be? Dont you want her to get married to a president the way you’ve always wanted to right from childhood huh? How do you expect her to become all that when you push her away and treat her like trash? Or do you think one can even care for a child the way a mother can? Come on now Fiona, i expected you to be smarter than this’
She saw Fiona draw back, shock written all over her face ‘you…you…who…who are you?’ Now it was Fiona’s turn to stutter.
‘Annab…..’
‘not your name. How did you know so much about me? Medical doctor? President?’
‘oh! I….’ she had slipped. Lex had told her all that. Then she realised something. She just said it out. Oh no!
‘Lex? Who’s…..’ she saw the realisation dawn in Fiona’s eyes….
She knew she was gone for good.
