Must Read: Love and Revenge - Season 2 - Episode 47

☆☆

‘Fiona will u do something about dat baby’s loud wailing? Its so annoying!’ Rebecca barked angrily.
Fiona closed her eyes and pushed her sore ni.pples into d baby’s mouth hoping she wasnt going to bite it again.

Immediately her baby’s mouth touched her ni.pples, she giggled and Fiona laughed ‘food food baby, dont kill me oo!’
Rebecca eyed her angrily ‘will you feed dat baby fast so u can fetch water from d well at d backyard and fill all d drums, fool!’
Fiona stared hard at her aunt and looked away.

She had plans. Plans she wasnt going to involve anyone in. Shola had broken her heart. She had loved him with all her soul but he treated her like trash.

She still remembered d day very clearly, when she had left her aunt’s house and gone to his house for help, d hurtful words he had said to her, how he had threw her out and told her to take responsibility for her actions.

She had always thought he had feelings for her but she had been wrong. She had been d one doing d loving all d time.

Why was life so unfair to her?

She had always fantasised about Shola taking her out to a fancy restaurant, feeding her ice-cream and then ask her to be his girlfriend, she had always thought dat day was going to come but alas! It never did.

‘ah!’ Fiona screamed. D baby had bitten her ni.pples again….but she couldnt take it out because once she did, the baby was going to cry and she didnt want troubles from her aunt.
‘Fiona stand up!’ Rebecca ordered ‘stand up immediately!’
Fiona hesitated then stood up managing to carry d baby as she continually bit on her ni.pples.

‘get out! Get out of dis house immediately, u are nothing but trash! How dare u show me how u m0an when ur filthy customers are on top of u? Go out and feed dat useless child of urs, and not even a sound from u. I wont have an imp like u disturb me with ur nonsense sounds…..and i give u five minutes to feed dat trash in ur arms else…..i’ll throw it in d dustbin’

‘my baby is not an “it” as u put it, she’s Emerald just incase u’ve forgotten’ Fiona said rolling her eyes.

Rebecca stood up angrily stamping her foot on d floor ‘how dare u talk back at me in my own house? Are u mad!!’ She approached Fiona menancingly and had it not been Tega’s timely intervention, Fiona was sure she would have flung her baby away, Rebecca had always found every opportunity to smack little Emerald for no just reason.

Fiona eyed mother and son….they were both like terms.

She opened d door and stepped out, d cool breeze caressing her exposed skin, blowing her hair to her face.

It felt refreshing and cool and she loved it.
Emerald’s soft cries drew her attention to her baby and she quickly cuddled her ‘my baby, my beautiful baby’

Tears were beginning to well up in her eyes as she beheld d wonderful sight of her baby…….and for d first time in a long while, she was grateful to Rebecca.

She had wanted to give up her baby when she gave birth but Rebecca had harshly warned her not to and dat she was not a fan of abortion or abandoning a child…..had it not been for Rebecca, she would have given dat child up.

She felt guilty for ever harbouring d thought of giving up her own child, but she hoped d baby would understand. She was too young to have a baby besides, she wasnt hundred percent guaranteed of d child’s welfare.
How would she buy clothes for d child? D ones she had been using were Juli’s clothes when she was a baby and most of dem were worn out and old.

How was she going to send d child to school?
How was she going to protect d child from aunty Rebecca’s wickedness? She was very sure dat Rebecca wasnt going to hesitate in passing d hatred she harboured for her down to her innocent child.

D breeze touched her cheeks as more tears poured down. She looked at her child and cried.

‘i’m so sorry…..i’m so so sorry for bringing u into dis world to suffer….i’m sorry for making u go through all dis…..i promise to survive for u….i promise u a gud life. I will never abandon u Emerald……i’ll do d best i can to protect u from Rebecca and her children and i’ll make sure u get d best education d world could get. I love u my child’
