Read Story: SEASON 1 EPISODE 44
“my dear..jehovah is indeed a
great God,he touched the DPO
heart,i have been coming here
everyday,pleading and pleading but he refused to grant my request.
So i took the cue and sent your
sister a text message and today i
came”
“so you mean chioma’s number is
now reachable” i interupted. “yes..but she still refused to pick
my calls”mama replied and
shrugged her shoulder.
“am sorry for all you went through
because of me mama,i owe
everything to you” i quietly said. She patted my right arm.
“nnaemeka it is alright,you are my
son and i cant leave you to rot in
jail”
“but papa did that”i pointed out.
She sighed and frowned fleetingly.”some things are better
left unsaid”
my favorite dish _well pounded
fufu and okra soup_was already
on the dining table when i came out
of the bathroom after spending
nearly half an hour there. I opened the dish and fell to the
sumptous meal,savouring each
morsel, i ate like i had fasted for
forty days.i was washing my
hands after the meal when a knock
sounded on the front door. “sabina! Go and check who is at
the door” i called out and she
dashed out of the kitchen hurrying
towards the front door.
She came back just as i was
standing up,I noticed the funny look on her face.
“who is that?”i asked.
“a youngwoman,she said her name
is nkeiru”
my heart sanked!!!
“and that she is looking for you”sabina concluded.
I sighed..
What have i become ??
One week-one trouble.
The first thing i noticed about
nkeiru was the way she looked,she had emaciated a great
deal.
Or was my eyes playing tricks on
me ?.
“emmy”she half yelled and
bounced into my arms,i wasnt prepared for this…i staggered.
“nke babe,is alright,come inside” i
led her straight to my room,i knew
who my father was,i knew what he
was capable of doing.
I knew he wouldnt look at nkeiru favourably,she was dressed in
white top over blue jean trouser
and my parents spoke ill of those
females who wore trouser.
“emmy what happened?”nkeiru
asked with a worried look on her face.
“nothing bad”
“i have been calling your line and it
isnt reachable…”
