The Demon I Called My Mum - S01 E04

Read Story: SEASON 1 EPISODE 4

Omowumi….!!! ” My daddy shouted my name.

In the first place when my Dad asked if there was anybody at home, I heard it, But since my stepmum didn’t say anything or answer, That was the reason why I kept mute too.

Yeah. I wouldn’t want that to vex her, so I kept mute.

“so, Be be careful, Omowumi. I don’t know why I like you, If it hadn’t been for that, You would’ve gone to meet your mum by now” she muttered.

I looked at her and fears gripped me.

“Could it be that my Dad was the one who k!lled her or what exactly, I’m seriously confused ” I said in my mind, as tears rolled down from my eyes.

After saying this in my mind, she walked in front of me as though as if she wanted to pick something at my back.

” when the time come, You’ll know how it happened. Don’t blame anybody yet, The truth shall prevail” My step mum retorted.

I rest my hands on my chest and then hummed confusedly.

Then we started hearing footsteps from the downstair, coming directly to the upstair where we were. It wasn’t anybody but my Dad.

My step mum scampered back to her bed, And I sat down at the edge of the bed too.

So my Dad opened the door and entered.

“I thought there wasn’t anybody at home” my Dad said in great surprise.

My stepmum stood up, Hugged him and welcomed him respectfully.

“You’re welcome, my king” my stepmum said, after hugging him.

I was there shaking my head.

“Wumin…!!! won’t you come and greet daddy? ” my daddy said, as he smiled broadly.

So I stood up to greet him and he cuddled me fatherly.

My Dad sat down at the middle. My step mum sat down at the right side, I sat down at the left side, my Dad sat down at the middle.

“How I wished my Dad could know what’s happening. I wished he had ran away by this time” I made a wish in my mind.

My stepmum from the left side laughed out loud.

“Do you think If he run away, he won’t be caught still? ” she asked me.

My Dad was actually confused, he looked at my stepmum, and then asked.

“Who’s running away? To where? From where? ” my Dad asked my step mum.

My stepmum smiled and said.

“I was telling Omowumi a story before you enter, so I decided to answer her previously asked question ” she responded.

My Dad turned to me and asked.

” is that true? ” my Dad asked me

I responded rapidly.

“Yes, Dad”

My Dad also smiled and said.

“Well, That’s mother and daughter’s talk. Make I no interfere” He said, as she was about to stand up.

My stepmum seated him back on the bed gently, then asked him.

“You didn’t even ask what the story was all about? ” she asked my Dad.

My Dad smiled again.

“Okay. What was it all about? ” he asked my step mum.

My stepmum looked so serious this time. But I was feeling afraid. I didn’t know or could predict where it would end to.

“It was all about a traitor of love” my step mum said.

My dad in great surprise asked.

“Do people still decieve their lovers? ” my Dad asked.

My step mum stood up and laughed.

“They do not only cheat and decieve lovers, They k!ll their lovers to inherit properties they didn’t work for”

This time, My Dad’s lips closed, and he looked so strange.

“But Omowumi is too young to be told this type of story. I thought it would be an educative or motivational story though oh. Well, I’m coming! ” My Dad stood up.

As my Dad stood up and was about to step outside, He looked back again. But as my stepmum was about to raise her head up, My Dad immediately looked at the front and opened the door to outside.

“It’s 8:30pm already. Go and sleep, omowumi” my step mum said.

I wasn’t really myself again. I stood up and said.

“Thank you, ma” I said, as I stood up.

I didn’t go to my room straight. But went to downstair.

I saw my Dad in the parlour, He wasn’t in a good mood, He rest his head on his palm, and I could see he had lost in thoughts.

So then I walked up to him.

I couldn’t touch him for more than two minutes, I only stood at his back being confused.

“Could it be that my Dad actually did this ” I imagined in my mind.

So after a minute more, making it three minutes of standing, I tapped my Dad from the back, and he nearly ran away.

“I’m the one Dad. What happened? Why did you stand up like that? “, I asked in great surprise.

After he settled down, He managed to smile.

“It’s really nothing dear. Just that, Well, don’t worry ”

I asked him to sit down, and I sat down beside him.

“Dad, I want to ask you a question” I said.

He sat down properly and said.

“Proceed”.

I hummed and sighed thoughtfully.

“Dad, what was the worsiest crìme you’ve ever committed in this life? Particularly when you were in the university? ” I asked.
