Must Read: A SECOND CHANCE - Season 1 - Episode 77

Fred sat on his chair in the office, thinking and thinking of all Queen Lateefa had said the previous night. He was very grateful that Kofo didnt die, oh yes, Kofo was very precious to him.
‘you will have to choose between your wife and a stranger’ those words said by Queen Lateefa kept ringing in his ears. Was he ready to make his daughter miserable again. Not ever! He had made the mistake before, killed Benjamin and Alice refused to move on. If he kills this new suitor of hers, she might commit suicide or blame herself for the death of all her suitors.

Talking about suitors, he knew Alice was in no realationship so what was Queen Lateefa talking about? Or was it the guy she introduced to him the other day? No, they were just friends. Alice would have told him if there was anything more to their friendship and even if there was, he wasnt even sure if he could kill again, to destroy his own daughter’s happiness.

Alice meant the world to him but what about Kofo? If he fails to kill this new suitor of hers, Kofo will die and he wasnt sure he could bear the pain.

He was frustrated. At a point he began to regret ever joining the kuvudu cult. They had brought him nothing more than pains.

He had to kill his only beloved elder sister in order to save his life. This elder sister of his had done so much for him. She even had to sacrifice her own education just for Fred to go to school and she even hawked just to be able to fend for Fred.

Their parents had died after the birth of Fred and his elder sister had assumed the role of his mother and father. What didnt his elder sister do for him and how did he pay her back? By sacrificing her to Kuvudu occult.

The very first person he had sacrificed to the cult was his uncle, then his sister, his father in law and mother in law, his daughter’s fiance and now its either between his wife or his daughter’s happiness.

At a point he began to cry, what has he gotten himself into? How can he go out? How did he even get there in the first place? Then he remembered God, he needed God at the moment.

He picked his car keys and went out.

Alice quickly reached for her clothes in order to hide her nakedness. Not like she was shy or anything but just that it was an office and anyone could walk in on anytine but anytime she moved an inch closer to her clothes, the farther it flew away.

Tony pulled his suit and wrapped it around Alice.

The breeze had already stopped blowing, he picked the clothes and gave it to Alice motioning her to dress up in the bathroom.

Tony picked up all his documents that flew away and arranged them slowly as Alice dressed up in the bathroom and came out.
‘what just happened?’ Alice asked.
‘its a mystery, i’ve never experienced such before’ Tony said utterly confused.
‘there must be an explanation to this Tony. This breeze undressed me, i dont understand at all!’ Alice said.
‘Alice calm down. I’m as confused as you are. First of all, lets clean up this mess’ Tony said and Alice shrugged.

They slowly arranged the documents in their right places. Tony was arranging some on the shelf, when his eyes got hold of something. A hairpin.

Oh yes! And the hairpin was familiar. It belonged to his mother in law, Nneka!
