did he have peace.

#InTheMorning

Ada regained consciousness and woke up. She

felt lesser pains as she opened her eyes. She

held her forehead with her left hand and sat up

erect on the mat to see that she was in Ken’s

chemist shop and she took a sigh of relief. In

having relief that she was in Ken’s shop, she

felt pain in her private part and she placed her

right hand beneath her skirt. On lifting it up,

her hand turned red in blood. Immediately she

saw it her hands began to shiver, her heart

pumped faster. In doubt of what she was

seeing, she immediately raised up her skirt and

all her body from below was soaked in blood

“No….” She cried

“This can’t be happening” She told herself. She

looked well at her black skirt and it was also

soaked in blood. Tears began to drop from her

eyes. She couldn’t believe what she saw

“Did Ken do this to me?” Ada asked herself

“Mba nu (No..)” She replied herself also

“No.. No, this must be a dream!!” She

exclaimed and burst out in tears. As she cried,

Ken arrived dressed decently. He opened the

glass showcase and walked in with a soured face

“A..Ad..Ada” He stammered her name and Ada

looked at him

“Good Morning.. How do you feel this

morning?” He asked as Ada’s mouth shivered

vigorously

“Ke..Ken” Ada called still looking at him and

Ken began to scratch his head

“Ken, you did this to me” Ada said in pains

“You.. You raped me!” She exclaimed and Ken

turned to her

“Ada, please I am sorry. It was the devil’s hand

work. Please” Ken pleaded

“You took away my Pride and you are telling

me that you are sorry!! How wicked can you be

Ken. I trusted you. You are wicked” Ada said in

tears

“I am finished” She added and Ken rushed her

“Please, forgive me. I didn’t know what came

over me” Ken kept on pleading

“Heii!! You took advantage of my helplessness

and you say you don’t know what came over

you?” Ada asked and hit Ken with the wrapper

he used in covering her. Hopelessly, Ada stood

up

“I don’t blame you. Maybe you knew I don’t

have money to pay you, so you paid yourself”

Ada said. She cleaned away the blood in her

body and walked home piteously. As she left,

Ken kept pleading but Ada never forgave him..

“Cheii!! God please forgive me” Ken prayed and

began to clean his shop..

“Bia Ada where have you been?” Nwanneka

asked Ada harshly as Ada walked in through the

gate feeling less pain

“I…I…” Ada stammered

“You what? Stupid girl” Nwanneka barked at her

“And what are those plasters all over you?”

Nwanneka asked

“I went to Ken’s place to…” Ada was

interrupted by Emetamma

“To do what? Eeh Ada.. To finish the Ashawo 10

kobo business you started” Emetamma rudely

said and Ada was speechless

“Wait oh, who gave you the money you paid

him?” Nwanneka asked

“He did it free Nne” Ada said

“Mtcheew.. Nonsense. This is just little of it.

Since you have decided to disgrace us in this

house” Nwanneka said and walked inside the

house. Ada exhaled deeply and walked to the

backyard to begin her house work despite the

pains she felt.

“Mom, good Morning” Onochie greeted his

mother that morning with a bright face which

surprised her and even Charles who was with

him

“Morning darling” His mother replied with a

smile

“Hope you slept well” She asked

“Very well Mom” Onochie said and left in

excitement leaving Charles and his Mother in

the sitting room. Lolo slowly walked to Charles

“Did you say anything to him. Or did anything

happen?” Lolo asked Charles

“I am also surprised myself”

“I don’t know how this joy of his emanated

Mom” Charles replied and they looked at each

other still surprised. Charles later walked out

to check out what was up with Onochie.

Onochie sat beside the swimming pool, looking

bright. Charles walked up to him and sat

besides him.

“Bro, why all the excitement. What’s up with

you?” Charles asked and Onochie smiled at him

“C’mon mehn. Speak to me” Charles added

“I found out that only my joy can make me less

angry” Onochie said and Charles was shocked

and speechless

“Anything else Bro?” Charles asked

“I also got an idea” Onochie added and

whispered to Charles’ ear.

“Are you serious? Will that work?” Charles

asked

“Well, there is no harm in trial Bro” Onochie

replied and they smiled..

Onochie stood behind the house with Nnenna,

the chief maiden of the palace

“I want you to do something for me” Onochie

requested

“My Prince. If it’s what I can do, I will do it”

Nnenna replied not looking at him.

“Alright” Onochie said

“Do you knw anything about Ada Madueke?”

Onochie asked and Nnenna stared at Him..
