Always Ready

Read Story: SEASON 1 EPISODE 31

I was still pondering on the issue when Timi together with Aunty Funke barged into the room.

Me: What’s the….

I was not allowed to finish my sentence.

Timi: What is what?, so you still have the mind to be seeing that b—h.

Me: keep shut Agatha is not a b—h. and please if you don’t have any meaningful to say please leave or better still I leave for you guys. All these while Aunty Funke didn’t say anything and from the look in her face, I could tell she’s disappointed. I stood up and left the room leaving both of them behind. ‘I didn’t love any if them but they took over me because I was naive if it comes to making decision especially in women matter,maybe because I was too young to handle such cases.

TWO YEARS LATER

Enny was seen playing with a young boy and a girl actually they were his children from Timi and Aunty Funke respectively.

Timi had left for her parents house A year after she had given birth to a baby boy named Tobi.

But since Aunty Funke had nowhere to go, Enny’s Parent find it necessary for them to help Aunty Funke further her Education to the tertiary institution and trust me she’s been doing well.

Enny’s siblings were flown abroad to further their education while Enny who was the most intelligent child in the family had remained in Nigeria. Attending the Yaba polytechnic.

He and Agatha lost contact after she relocated to her uncle’s place in Ogun state and this is where The Title ALWAYS READY emerged.

As the first child and only Son that Enny was, he deserved the best but despite being the most intelligent and brilliant, his father lost interest in him After the pregnancy saga but Enny never stop putting up his best.

Enny was now almost 21 years but His appearance seem younger like a boy of 16 or even lesser.

Enny was playing with his children when the phone rang.

Enny’s side of The Story Continued.

‘Who owns this strange number’ I said to myself.

I picked the call and remained silent for about three secs before I voiced out

Me:hello!

Caller: hi! how’re you doing.

I was fighting hard to recognise the voice and finally I did.

Me: Agatha! is that you

Caller: yes its me.

.

As I was about to say something, the network interrupted the call and it cuts off. immediately I tried the number severally but it won’t go then I gave up trying after what seem like the 50th trial.

I was happy to at least hear from the person I really loved after almost a year without contact and to be sincere I never let a day passed by without thinking of Agatha. Ever since she left I found out that most girls are less attractive let’s just say I find it irritating mingling with females thou some of them showed interest in me maybe because I was one of the best in my department.

This sudden call from Agatha again got me depressed that I find it difficult to get myself for the whole week and there’s no day I won’t try the number but it won’t go thru.

Tobi: Daddy you are not happy.

immediately I heard this I jumped because I didn’t know when Tobi came in so I tried hard to smile and I told him to go and rest that I was just thinking of what to buy for him if I’m coming back tomorrow. Trust children immediately he heard that he started listing a lot of things which I paid less attention to but at least I was relieved of thinking a bit.

It was some mins past 8 in the evening when my phone rang and it was Agatha, This time I was extremely happy that after a week she called again and I hoped the network won’t interrupt again.

I picked it.

Me:Hello my love.

caller: Oooh so you are the one that impregnated my daughter. I caught you redhanded and the Police is coming for you straight away.

Me: What!

I looked at the number and discovered that it was not Agatha it was my course mate Anna.

‘What have I gotten myself into why didn’t I look well before picking up’ I said to myself while I was thinking of how to escape then I thought of my children.

Though I didn’t love their mothers but at least they are my blood and I can die for any of them.

So I remained and start thinking of how to defend myself since I’m innocent.
