Must Read: A SECOND CHANCE - Season 2 - Episode 37

For the first time in three months, Maria had a long, happy chat with her dad. It was very nice.

Her dad had apologised to her, gave her chocolates and even offered to take her out for shopping on Saturday.

Gilbert had called her earlier and briefd her about what happened at Alice’s place.
‘i’m sure they will never get back. I clearly saw the look of hurt in you father’s eyes’ he had said.

It was nice and she was so happy. When Tony came back, she knew that they would be happier without any woman in their lives. She thanked Gilbert alot over the phone and even promised to come to his apartment and probably make up with Abby.

However, her dad didnt tell her anything, he just said he and Alice were over, not knowing she already knew the full story.

*****

Alice felt like dying, she just felt like commiting suicide. Nothing was working out for her at all.

She lost Benjamin and now she was losing Tony, and the similar thing was she both carried their babies after losing them.

Then she remembered her mother and how she had made her go through hell. She never knew a mother could be so heartless to her own very daughter. The house became unbearable for her now and she thought of moving back to the apartment she was staying before, the one Benjamin had bought for her before he died, but she was scared of going there. It would bring back memories from before.

And she missed Tony.

She really missed him badly and she kinda missed Maria as well, and her troubles
She knew she was wrong in alot of things but she couldnt believe that Tony couldnt even bother to hear her own side of the story. He hadnt even visited again since two weeks now.

She didnt bother going back to the office because she knew she had already been sacked, there was no point going there. But she had half expected him to at least, visit her once to get a more detailed explanation.

And she hadnt seen Gilbert again, that monster! She was gonna kill him if ever she sets her eyes on him.

And another strange thing, she hadnt even seen Amy! Amy wasnt picking her calls or even returning her calls. It was just that she didnt feel like leaving the house else she would have visited her.

Immediately thoughts of Amy entered her head, she thought of visiting her. She needed someone to share her problems with and someone to stay with or spend some time with to be able to be free from her devil of a mother.

She was going to visit Amy first, confirm that everything was okay before returning to pack her luggage.

*****

Alice knocked twice and Amy opened the door. The smile on Amy’s face disappeared immediately she saw Alice.
‘what are you doing here? You traitor’
Alice was taken aback for a moment. A traitor?
‘i asked a question, what the hell are you doing here you two timing b---h!’ Amy said when Alice didnt answer.
‘me? Amy, are you talking to me?’ Alice asked, perplexed.
‘no, i’m talking to the baby strapped at your back,’ Amy replied sarcastically
‘i dont understand’
‘why would you understand? Eh, answer me why would you understand when all you know is go around snatching people’s fiance. Na only that one na you sabi’
Alice opened her mouth to speak but no words came out.
‘so, you even have a thing for Gilbert, thats why you were telling me to leave him and go for Kelvin abi?’
‘excuse me?’
‘oh, you are well excused. You are dating Tony and you still want to date my boo too abi? Na only you like better thing?’
‘Amy, do we….do we have a problem?’
‘big problem oo. Better one. Because right now, you are gonna explain something to me. Just wait here and dont even think of coming in’ Amy said and went inside.

Not too long, she came out with a picture and handed it to Alice.
‘can you please explain this?’ Amy asked.

Alice peered at the picture! It was she and Gilbert kissing. She coughed.
‘Amy, what is this?’
Amy clapped her hands ‘see question. No be you be that? Just look at the way you were kissing another woman’s property. You see your life? Shameless harlot. No wonder you mother hates you, you are a disgrace’
Alice felt like dying now ‘it was Gilbert who kissed me first’
Amy laughed ‘liar! It was Gilbert who gave me this picture. He said you were the one who kissed him first, by force sef. If he is the one who kissed you first, why then will he hand me this picture. You no see your life, you no even sabi lie. Now leave my house before i do something we will both regret in heaven’
‘Amy, i……’
‘abeg comot for here jor! Ashawo kobo kobo’
