Must Read: A SECOND CHANCE - Season 1 - Episode 70

Tony pulled up in front of Alice’s family house.

‘take good care of yourself’ Tony said.
Alice looked away without saying a word.
‘come on dearie, your mum will be just fine’ Tony said.
‘take me back to the hospital please’ Alice said.
‘no way! You heard your father say i should drop you off. I’m sorry dear, just stay at home, you really need some rest okay?’ Tony said and pecked her.
‘i wonder what happened to her. Why did she just slump suddenly. And why id the doctor saying that nothing is wrong with her, i just dont get it!’ Alice said and sighed in fustration.
‘you never can tell what really happened dear but the doctor said she will be fine and your father is there with her, so dont worry. Maybe first thing tomorrow morning, you should visit her and also remember to call your dad from time to time to check her condition’ Tony said.
Alice sighed.
‘but why did daddy choose to stay with her an told me to go, dont you think they are keeping a secret from me?’ Alice said and shook her head.
‘Alice, you worry alot. I believe the reason your father told you to go home was because of Felix. He’s a kid remember so you have to stay with him. Afterall the case isnt that serious. Is it?’ Tony said.
‘but…….’
‘shhhh, Alice, you are just giving yourself headache for nothing. Dont worry about anything’
‘i dont know why i feel uneasy. It feels like something bad is going to happen to mummy and i dont want to lose her, i dont want to lose her at all’
‘what makes you think that something bad is going to happen to your mother?’
‘the feeling. Its just isnt right’
‘okay, i’ve heard you. Go inside and pray.

I’m so tired so i need to go home and get some rest’ Tony said and yawned tiredly.

Alice shrugged.
‘okay bye. Thanks for everything’ she said and alighted bading him goodbye.
She shook her head.
‘no way! Something just isnt right. I have to go back to the hospital’ she said to her self and with that she flagged a cab.
‘take to St. Joseph clinic’ she said to the driver.

*********

Tears flowed freely from his eyes and he stared at his wife lying on the hospital bed. He cried for what he was about to do, something that he didnt want to do. Something he would have never done.

He reached for her hand as she slept.
‘i’m sorry Kofo, i never meant to but i have to.

I hope you can forgive me, i love you’ Fred said in tears.

With that, he brought out a razor from his chest pocket, brought out a small earthen pot from his briefcase and moved closer to her.

He was shivering as he handled the razor, he couldnt help it. Was he to kill his beloved wife? He had no choice. He had to obey Queen Lateefa before he loses both Kofo and Alice.

He reached for her arm and shivered. Tears dropped from his eyes as he brought the razor closer.
‘i’m sorry Kofo, i really am, please forgive me’

********

Alice was shivering in the cab. The feeling wasnt right, something was wrong somewhere.
‘driver, please be fast!’ she screamed.

The driver increased his speed. Suddenly Alice broke into a cry. What was wrong? She couldnt tell.

The cab pulled up in front of the hospital then she alighted, paid the cab man and entered the building…..
