Must Read: Fighting Back! - Season 1 - Episode 26

Osagie replayed, play and then slowed the
scene. It was a clip on the forced marriage. It
was Ethel’s copy of the event.
‘Gegeege-ge! oooops and up in the air.’ He
glanced at Hester. ‘How did you manage such
precision? ‘ He was referring to the ring, flower
and exit.
Hester remained quiet as she watched the
scene.
Ethelbert watched her.
‘It was Perfect Hess, pure psychology, you
worked on their minds. You deserve a drink for
such perfection. ‘ He stood and her got her one.
She collected it and thanked him.
Based on what she heard, the president so
upset about the happenings that he grounded
two media houses, five reporters got arrested.
Yet it hadn’t keep most of the media houses
from releasing lashing headlines and stories.
The president even got on the verge of
declaring a state of emergency for his son
dignity.

Suddenly she felt choked, she excused herself
without the drink.

Ethel knew she was disturbed. Osagie had not
noticed since he was engrossed with the clip.
I think something is wrong, no smiles, no jokes,
she has been too quiet for my liking. ‘ Osagie
posture was a relaxed one on the sofa but he
was pensive.

Ethel concentrated on the newspaper as if he
didn’t hear him.
‘This is unlike Hester,’ He sat at the edge of his
sofa. ‘Knowing we are both around, she should
have kept us company. ‘ He looked at his friend
and groaned. ‘Ethel! ‘

‘Huh…?’ He didn’t even look up.
‘Ethel, haven’t you been listening to me? ‘
‘Goodness gracious, what is it ehen? ‘ He gave
him a burning look. ‘This article am reading
contain some mind blowing facts. ‘
‘Ethel am worried about Hester, she did not join
us for breakfast. Neither did she take anything
for lunch and dinner. ‘
‘You wouldn’t know that, we spent ample time
out today. ‘
‘Mwihaki complained, besides, I observed. This is
unlike her, she would have been here by now to
keep us company. I strongly feel something is
wrong. ‘
‘Tell me BF when did you become a Psyche and
how much of feelings do you now have? ‘
Ethel peered at him with a smile.
‘Flush the pleasantries, am not in the mood! ‘ His
voice rose and he turned aside looking away
from him. He had expected him to reason with
him and not to make caricature.
‘I was minding my own business o! ‘ Ethel went
back to newspaper maintaining his smile.

Osagie stood and walk out to the balcony
adjoining the sitting room and started pacing .
He watched him leave knowing he was bothered,
he was also bothered but he wanted his friend to
come out straight so he could know his true
intentions.
