Must Read: A SECOND CHANCE - Season 1 - Episode 40

‘oh no!’ Alice exclaimed, she quickly reached for the door handle and locked it immediately without even looking inside.
‘be more careful next time son!’ Alice said.
‘sorry mummy’

Tony decided to take the day off. He stayed at home throughout that day.


He was resting in his bedroom when a knock appeared in his door.
‘come in’
The door opened slowly and Nneka entered with a smile on her face.
‘hi, mother’ he said as he sat up.
‘you didnt go to work today?’
‘no’
‘why?’
‘just wanted to take the day off jare’
‘okay oo. Hope you’ve eaten sha?’
‘yes i have. Are you going out. I can see your shopping bag’ Tony said.
‘yes, i’m going out. By the way have you seen Maria? Today is saturday and she’s nowhere to be found’
Tony sighed. Oh Maria!
‘i havent seen her’ he said.
‘hmm, thats serious. Its obvious you dont punish her at all’
‘that was my mistake. But i promise to make things right’
‘its too late son’
‘i failed as a father’
‘no you didnt son. Dont worry i will speak to her’ she said.


She stood contemplating whether or not to bring the issue of the girl he brought home the other day.

She smiled ‘okay Tony, let me go’
‘okay bye’ Tony said as she left.

Madam Nneka flagged down a taxi at the bus stop. She didnt want to go with a car. She wanted it to be private.


She stopped in front of CC camp.

She paid the cab and went inside.

She saw Fred sitting patiently close to the window. Her heart bled. How was she to kill the only daughter of Fred, her ex.

Yes, she and Fred were in a relationship in her university days. They loved each other very much and would have gotten married if not for their incompatible genotypes. As and As.

They broke up later on. They met again two years later. Nneka was about to get married then, meeting Fred again brought back lost feelings.

Despite her marriage being few weeks away, she had a relationship with him.

Even after getting married and giving birth to Naomi, she still had a secret affair with Fred. She was cheating on her husband she knew but she didnt care at all.


She soon found out she was pregnant again and she knew very well it belonged to Fred and not her husband.


She had to terminate it without her husband’s knowledge and even Fred’s.

That didnt stop her from going out with Fred. Her own marriage was on the verge of collapsing but she didnt care.


It was the time Fred decided to get married that she had to quit the ungodly relationship.



She couldnt count the number of times she tried to take Kofo’s life, both spiritually and physically. She wanted Fred alone. She wasnt willing to share.


After the birth of Alice, she blocked Kofo’s womb to stop her from getting pregnant again.

It was when she attempted to take little Alice’s life that she realised that both she and Fred belonged to the same cult.

Fred soon fell in love with Kofo after marriage and warned Nneka to stay away from him and his new family.

Truth be told she was hurt. She never stopped loving him. She loved her husband too but it could never compare to that which she had for Fred.


They didnt see physically again until now. They only met in the spiritual realm of the cult members and they both worked paripasu for Queen Lateefa.

She hated Alice and Kofo but she couldnt afford to kill anyone of them. She knew Fred loved them and would be in pains if he loses one of them and she couldnt stand seeing the man she loves in pains. Thats how much she loved him.


How funny, a grandmother in love!
‘hi’ Fred said on seeing her.
‘hi’ she replied politely.
‘have a seat’
‘of course’
‘so why did you request to see me?’ Fred asked not smiling.
‘ah-ah Fred. We’ve been friends for more than fourty years, cant we just hang out together?’ she said.

Fred stood up.
‘i have no time for pleasure, i have to take my leave now!’ he said as he turned to leave.
‘okay wait. I have something to tell you’ she said.

He sat down again and cleared his throat.
‘its been a while’
‘i know’
‘i was given an assignment to carry out’
‘i know’
‘i’m really sorry for everything i did in the past. I attempted to take away Kofo’s life, forgive me’ She was sobbing now.
‘its okay. Its in the past now, so what do you want to tell me?’
‘nothing, i just wanted to apologise and make up for all the wrongs i did to your family. I wanted us to be family friends’ Nneka said as she wiped her tears withe back of her hand.

Fred studied her for a while. Nneka was sure up to something and he must find out. He will meet with Queen Lateefa today to find out what the Queen of serpents, Nneka was planning.

He knew her. She was a green snake under a green grass.
‘i’m sorry Nneka. I dont want my family to have anything to do with you’ He stood up and left.

Nneka watched the man she loved go away.

Again she got rejected!
