The Cry - S01 E24

Read Story: SEASON 1 EPISODE 24

Anochie walked in and dropped his water pot,

he went into the house but didn’t find his

mother, he went to the back yard and didn’t

find her market basket so he knew she went to

the market so he went into the bathroom,

freshened up, ate the food his mother kept for

him and sat outside playing his flute.

*

Ada also got home, dropped her water pot and

was thanked by her mother who has already

finished cooking. Ada took her bath also,

braided her hair and shined light the morning

sun.

“Where is Papa” Ada asked

“He went to see the Onowu” Ada’s mother

replied and Ada began to eat her food as her

mother watched her

“Where are you going dressed up like this?”

Ada’s mother asked

“I will be going to Anochie’s house with

Nwamma” Ada said concentrating on her food

“Who is Nwamma” Her mother asked

“The orphan that lives with her Uncle” Ada said

still face down on her food

“Since when did you become friends” Her

mother asked her further

“Why asking me all these questions mother”

Ada asked back but this time looking at her

mother

“I never liked that girl. She is not a good girl”

Ada’s mother said to her

“How do you know Nne” Ada asked

“I don’t just know, but as I heard, she is not a

good girl” Ada’s Mother said

“Nne, stop listening to gossips. It’s just a mere

gossip about her. She is very nice Nne” Ada

said and her mother sighed

“Alright, if you say so. But be careful with her”

Ada’s mother said

“Nne, I will” Ada said and continued with her

food but her mother was still worried..

“Amaka where have you been?” Lolo queried

Amaka who heard her voice from afar on her

way back and ran to the Lolo’s hut

“Sorry My Lady, I went to ease myself” Amaka

lied to herself

“Alright, go get my son for me” Lolo said and

Amaka left immediately

“Don’t forget to get my food ready in minutes”

Lolo said while Amaka was still at the door

“Ok Her Majesty” She said and left. Her heart

pounded as she thought of how to enter the

Prince’s room to call him. She gathered a little

courage and knocked on his door

“My Prince” She called and the Prince opened

the door bare chested with only a wrapper

around his waist. He looked at Amaka who

shifted a bit

“Her majesty is calling you” She said shifting

back the more

“Why are you shifting back, come closer and

tell me what you said cause I didn’t hear you”

Azuka said luring Amaka to come closer. She

sluggishly came but before she could say

anything Azuka drew her in and held her tight

romancing her angrily..

“My Prince Please, Lolo is calling you” Amaka

struggled to free herself but Azuka paid deaf

ears so Amaka began to shout which made

Azuka leave her immediately and slapped her

“Are you crazy?” Azuka asked angrily and

Amaka held her cheek in tears

“Thank your gods my Mother is calling me, your

shouts wouldn’t have saved you. Nonsense!

Now get out” Azuka ordered and Amaka ran out

immediately. Azuka dressed up and walked to

his Mom..

Nwamma has prepared for her evil assignment,

carried few fruits as usual in a small bag and

left for Ada’s house. On her way she met

Ikemba and Egwuatu who was walking like they

owned the city

“Nwamma, it’s been long oh” Ikemba said

“Long when you no longer ask of me” Nwamma

said and they pleaded to her in a not too

serious manner

“It’s alright, I have heard” Nwamma said

“Where are you going to?” Egwuatu asked

looking at her bag

“Oh, I am going to see someone” Nwamma said

“Hmm.. Someone?” Ikemba asked

“Of course yes” Nwamma replies almost

immediately and Egwuatu whispered to her

ears

“Why not visit us first. We will make it very

fast” He whispered and Nwamma bit her

tongue seductively

“No!!” She later refused and began to walk

away

“Alright, give us some fruits” Ikemba asked

dipping his hands into the bag of fruits but

Nwamma hit out his hand

“It’s not meant for you” Nwamma said and left

“Chaii, Nwanne lekwa ukwu (My Brother, look

at this waist)” Ikemba said to Egwuatu as they

looked at Nwamma shaking her buttocks like a

swinging rope.. They later left walking through

the other path..

*

Nwamma got to Ada’s house, greeted her

mother who unwillingly reciprocated

“Welcome” Ada said and offered her a sit. Ada

went in and came out again standing in front of

her mother.

“Nne, we are going” Ada said. Nwamma

behaved like a saint which died down Ada’

mother’s suspicion about her

“Alright, but come back in time” She said

“I will Nne” Ada said and they left…
