“Oh my goodness, who am I seeing?” I noticed shockingly, I used my hand to wipe my face over and over again but my eyes don’t deceive me. Daniel was also dumbstruck but Henry seems not to know the person in taking. Lo and behold, it was Mr. Chorus on the wheelchair begging for aims, he looked lean and he’s now the image of his own self.

“At last, nemesis caught up with this wicked, selfish and greedy man.” Daniel exclaimed and he turned to leave.

“What are you waiting for? Come on let go.” Daniel concluded as he led the way, we shambled behind him, I kept on looking back at Mr. Chorus pitifully.

A YEAR LATER

Princess sat down inside a sofa, she was battling with the phone she was holding. Suddenly, she screamed out loudly but shockingly.

“Wow!” Princess screamed in joy; she flung the phone she was holding and the tablet landed inside another sofa.

“What’s the noise all about?” Daniel’s mother asked teasingly. Princess picked up the phone and she read aloud.

“You’ve been offered provisional admission to study Physiology in the University of Ibadan; you’re to pay your clearance fees before the due date…” Princess read loudly but happily.

“Wow, Glory is to God.” Mama praised happily as she embraced Princess passionately. Shortly, Henry, Daniel and I came into the house with smile all over our faces.

“Welcome my sons; have you checked your admissions status?” Daniel’s mother asked smiling.

“Sure mothers.” I replied happily.

“How’s it?” Mama asked impatiently.

“Mothers, I’m offered an admission to read Law in the University of Ilorin.” Henry announced happily.

“Brilliant.” Mama commented.

“Mothers, I must consider myself lucky, because I’m now an undergraduate student of the Nigeria Defence Academy; in the next four years, I’ll be in my Khaki uniform with ranks in its soldier.” Daniel elucidated jokingly.

“Oga Soldier.” I saluted as he hit me jokingly.

“That’s my son o.” Daniel’s mother riposted as the vast sitting room was rented with laughter.

“And you Ola?” Daniel’s mother asked eagerly.

“I don’t even know what to say…” I paused. Daniel’s mother and Mama shivered in fear.

“Don’t tell me you’re not admitted after scoring 323 in jamb and 88 in post-utme.” Daniel’s mother rebutted.

“Mothers, eight years in school, that’s quite stressful…” I paused and both mothers heaved a heavy sigh of reliefs.

“You this boy, you won’t kill me.” Daniel’s mother commented as we all burst into laughter.

“Anyway, I’m the number two on the merit list of the University of Ibadan; I’m admitted to study Medicine and Surgery.” I announced happily.

“Where’s that future Banker?” Henry asked jokingly.

“She’s in the kitchen preparing lunch.” Daniel’s mother answered.

“Oh, I can’t wait to taste her wonderful and always delicious meal.” Henry commented and we all burst into laughter.

“A banker is now a chef, right?” Angel voiced out from the kitchen.

“I know what to do; there is no food for any lawyer in this house today.” Angel said jokingly as we all burst into laughter.

“You this banker, you’d better not impress yourself o, I’m a better cook than you.” Henry rebutted smiling.

“Then you’ll have to cook your lunch yourself.” Angel concluded as she headed back to the kitchen.

“I hope her food is as spicy as it used to be.” Henry murmured.

“Have you checked your admission status?” Henry asked as he ran after Angel.

“Ah! Thank God they are both admitted in Unilorin, I’m tired of their troubles.” Princess sighed directing her statement to Henry and Angel and we all laughed.

“Mothers, hope you’re preparing for the wedding ceremony of Uncle Martins and my role model; Doctor Vicky?” I asked smiling.

“Well, we’re preparing, Martins told us that we’re going to be the mothers to the groom.” Daniel’s mother answered.

“Wow, that’s very nice.” I commented happily.

“He called me today that he sacked and got the Distributor Manager arrested for trying to bankrupt the Mining Company.” Mama added.

“That man is more than an uncle, I love his actions and decisions; he is more a General Manager to Ola’s companies.” Daniel commented happily.

“Point of correction Daniel, ‘to our companies.” I rebutted and we all burst into laughter.

FIVE YEARS LATER

“We have to hurry to the reception.” Mama uttered loudly as she handed over her car key to her trained driver.

“Call the brides and grooms.” Daniel’s mother commanded directing her statement to me and I hurried upstairs.

“Oga soldier, can I?” I asked the soldier at the entrance to Daniel’s dressing room and he allowed me in after a minute of examining.

“Daniel, this your junior officer standing at the entrance; I guess he is very stubborn and callous o, he doesn’t even tend to know me as the best man to his boss, and you know you caused all this.” I complained as I hit Daniel playfully.

“Ola, my twins, he’s doing his job, you know I goes to the Defence College, maybe if I don’t graduate from the defence school I may be in his position, so you have to take it that way.” Daniel replied smiling.

“Soldiers lives are quite funny and interesting, so you must wear uniform on your wedding day. Gosh!” I commented naughtily.

“Ola, today is my day, it won’t be nice if I beat you blue black.” Daniel rebutted lightheartedly.

“Can I send you on an errand?” Daniel asked smiling.

“Maybe.” I answered.

“Maybe? Okay, check on that Banker and Lawyer; that’s if they haven’t gone to works, I’ll go and check on my sweetest Cynthia.” Daniel requested.

“I will do just that.” I answered as I left the room happily. I walked in a trajectory manner to Henry’s dressing room; on getting there, I met Princess coming down from the upstairs looking stunning and more beautiful in her elegant gown.

“This girl must be an angel; her beauty is out of this world, I would rather count myself ‘lucky’ to hav this beautiful damsel in my custody.” I thought smiling.

“Good morning babe.” Princess greeted respectfully.

“Hope you’d a wonderful night?” I asked smiling.

“Yes and no.” Princess answered paradoxically.

“Funny you!” I exclaimed reasonably.

“Where is that Lawyer?” Princess asked.

“He has gone to the court.” I answered jokingly.

“Hi babe.” Angel greeted from afar, she was looking gorgeous and stunning in wedding gown, she represented beauty and beauty of the day.

“Big sis.” Princess returned as she hugged her passionately.

“Oh, Ola!” Henry exclaimed as he came out of his dressing room.

“Brother, mothers are waiting for you.” I announced but it Henry wasn’t paying attention, I repeated myself over and over again but guess what; Henry was carried away by the mind-boggling beauty of his wife-to-be.

“Brother.” I called laughing.

“Ola, are you sure this is my wife?” Henry asked serenely and I burst into laughter.

Daniel wed Cynthia, Henry wed Angel was written boldly on the flyers given to the invited people that attended the wonderful and unimaginable weddings ceremony, people who attended the wedding were really excited and keyed up; Princess and I were the best lady and man respectively to both the grooms and the brides. Daniel’s mother and Mama represented the mothers to both the grooms and bride; Angel. Cynthia’s uncle is the father of the bride; Cynthia, while Uncle Martins is the father of the grooms; Henry and Daniel. The wedding was really a memorable one and it was really out of the blue.

NEXT DAY

Princess and I waved off Angel and Henry at the airport; they are going for their honeymoon in Paris, France. Same goes to Cynthia and Colonel Daniel as they departed to Berlin, Germany. Daniel’s mother and Mama left earlier for vacation in the U.S.A.

“In four years time, we will also take off like this.” I whispered into Princess hear and she hugged me passionately in public.

“Once a lover, forever a lover.” Princess whispered into my ear and I nodded my head approvingly and we left the airport for home.

THE END
