Episode 30
Charles sees his wife, he speaks to her ignoring Megan.
âRuth, I came to get you, let us goâ he ignores Megan speaking to his wife
âNo I am not going anywhereâ she shakes her head âI came to see my daughter and my little girl, and you should see what a wonderful woman she has grown into and our granddaughter? She is so
beautiful and bright and has our chin, oh CharlesâŠ
you need to see her-â
âSee who? The girl who abandons her family to go away to have a child for a man who didnât want the child and left her alone and didnât care or possibly has no idea he has a child?
The girl who didnât care how her family suffered when she got pregnant fresh out of college, not even aware how it destroyed our lives too, my reputation and ministry and how I had to start from the start?
The same girl who was ungrateful when we tried to help her save face and cover her shame and we sorted out good suitors for her so the child ⊠a b—–d child can have a father, grown in a family and be loved.
The same girl who ran away in the
middle of the night and havenât returned ever since.that same girl you want me to forgive and take back? No Ruth! she left, so she should stay away, I do not care about her nor do I care about her b—–d child.. she is no daughter of mine, she is a disgrace!!â
Megan is standing at the door, tears falling down her eyes, she is trembling in pain and anger and more, but she remains quiet.
Tonia is angry, she flares up âDisgrace you say?
The same girl despite her parentâs not reaching out to help manages to stand on her own, raise that child you dare call a b—–d and has a good life albeit not fantastic. The same girl who calls you up a thousand times and you refused to pick,
sent you hundreds of messages you do not reply to, who drives down every time to drop presents for you and you do no reciprocate. The same girl who has beat herself up for years for her mistake and has been trying to make amends, who has managed to live right and raised her daughter right⊠and that girl isnât a b—–d..she has a father and I will have you know that he is stan-â
âTonia, pleaseâ!! Megan sobs shaking her head,
Tonia bites her lips
âDamnit Megan, for once in your life⊠speak THE HELL UP!!â
âYou! You are the friend right? you were the bad influence on her. If she had listened to me from the start she wouldnât have gotten pregnant. All these happened because of you⊠you were bad company right from the start. Ruth, come now we are leaving!!â
âI will not go anywhere, I told you, if you werenât coming to make peace, you shouldnât have come Charles⊠but I refuse to let my heart hurt, I refuse to remain in pain and anger and forgiveness.
Charles⊠you go home, go home to your mystery but I carried my baby for nine months and I cannot be away from her no more⊠no more!!â
Ruth shouts Sean is speechless, okay what the hell did he just walk into? he sees Zachary coming down from the car and walking towards them.. âWhat the hell
bro,whatâs happening?â
âNo idea⊠I think all hell just broke loose!!â he breaths, his heart aches seeing Megan face wet with tearsâŠ
âYou are coming with me and you are coming now!! Let her and her b—–d child stay alone forever!!â
âWill you stop calling her that dad!!ââ Meganâs lips trembles
âI am not your father. You lost that right a long time again when you got pregnant with no father to claim your child and you left home disregarding us your parents, she is a b—–d!! And you Megan are a bad influence on the little girl because if you couldnât obey and listen to our instructions, I wonder how you can be able to raise her to be obedient and good⊠I pity the girl, I fear for herâ
he spat, it shoots through Meganâs heart as
though a knife was twisting her heart.
âMy daughter-my daughter is NOT A B—–D,
SHE HAS A FATHER!!!â Megan wails
âOh you do not talk to me Megan, you donât!!ââ
âCharles stop it!! Stop itâs enough..!!âRuth cries
âA young girl who slept around when she was young, got pregnant by a stranger who never came forward to claim or didnât care to⊠that child is a b—–d, not as way of an insult but a child without a father is a b—–d⊠and she is innocent but that is what she is⊠a B—–D!!â
âOkay sir .. thatâs uncool!ââ Zachary shakes his head,
âSir, with all due respect I think it is wrong to call a child a b—–d, regardless of whether they have a father or not⊠and Kiki, that is her name by the way, she is a beautiful intelligent child, and Megan did a good job⊠Megan is the most respectful woman I know, she raised her daughter well⊠Kiki is lovable, I mean just knowing for a few weeks I already have already fallen in love with her innocence and she is a beautiful child, and if only you could come off your bitterness of God knows
what⊠you will see that all your family wants here is for you to forgive.. look I donât know what happened to your family but right now⊠all I see is everyone hurting⊠your wife, your daughter⊠and to think if your granddaughter was here-ââ
âShe is no granddaughter of mine,a nd who the hell are you to speak to me? who the hell are you,
get out of my way, Ruth, come hereâ he pushes
Sean aside and grabs his wifeâs hand.
Ruth holds on to Megan not wanting to leave
âDonât Charles, please donât. she is our family, she is ours too⊠kiki is our blood too.. No Megan! I do not want to goâ Ruth cries loudly Charles pulls her out, Megan follows as they struggle out the door.
âLook man, let her go, this isnât right, she wants to stay with her daughterâ Sean shouts at him
âStay the hell away from this young man, this is a family matter and it doesnât concern you, let her
go Ruth or elseâ he eyes Megan
âOr else what? You will hit her?â Sean is angry now, he never liked a man maltreating a woman before, he didnât like it today either.
âTake it easy manâ Zachary cautions Sean âLook man, let her go, she is your wife and she is a grown woman to decide to stay with her child,what is wrong with you?ââ
âIt explains the separationâŠâ Sean says trying to make sense of that scene in the library when Kiki was saying that her mother always cries when she drives out to some place⊠Her father must have given her hell,and her mother is here to make
peace and he chooses to be an insensitive old
man,who does that?⊠who willingly decides to stay away from their daughter? Yes children make
mistakes.. he has a thousand times but his
parents had never let go off him even in his
worse⊠he hates to imagine what Megan had gone through but something else still didnât make
sense. Her father said she got pregnant fresh out of college, and the father didnât want the child or didnât claim or didnât know of the child⊠so she runs away, raising the kid alone..
But Megan said that Kikiâs father was dead, in heaven.
And, he frowns, it didnât make sense, but still..it still wasnât right that her father would come all this way to disrupt a mother and child from
making up and raining insults on her and insulting an innocent child too just because she didnât have her father to protect her. It was wrong and it made him angryâŠreally madâŠlike really really mad.. if she were his daughter? he would break the manâs face.
How dare he not see that little girl and love her?
How dare he call that innocent beautiful little girl a b—–d, only knowing kiki for this past couple of
weeks, he has subconsciously come to care and yes, love the girl. he canât believe that too but it was true.there was something about Kiki that pulls his heart, warms him up when she smiles and
when he is with her, sometimes it feels..natural,
like..she was more than a little girl named kiki, like she means more and this man here was bitter, old and has no right to punish a child for the mistake of her mother and punish her mother, his daughter all her life⊠this bitter old man was vile and he
deserves to be out in his place.
âStop him Sean, pleaseâ Tonia sobs pulling Megan who is being held by Ruth who is being pulled by Charles forcefully..Kiki had been standing by the door,hearing everything and then crying loudly
calling her mother.Due to the commotion no one pays attention to her,no one hears her. Charles is pulling Ruth they are going towards the road⊠he is flagging down a taxi with one hand and pulling Ruth with the other.
âLet me go Charlesâ
âNo!! let go of your mother Megan or I will slap
youââ
âYou will not touch my daughter!ââRuth shouts at him, angered now, Charles lets go of Ruth, pulls Megan away and raises his hand to hit her, Sean catches his hands before he could land a slap
across Meganâs face, Kiki seeing it runs to them,s
he grabs Charles hands and is hitting him..
âLet go of my mummy!!â she cries..
ââWho the hell are you to dare to stop me from hitting my daughter!!â Charles charges at Sean ignoring the little girl screaming
âYou dare touch her and I swear to God, you have no idea what I will do to you, her father or notâŠno one touches her..no one!!ââ Sean grabs his shirt..
âSean No!!â Megan begs..
Charles points at Sean âYou dare to threaten me,
Charles? You have no idea what she has done or put us throughââ
âI do not and I donât care, she is your child
DAMNIT!â
âShe isnât not with a b—–d child, no she isnâtâ
âStop it Charles!!â Ruth begs
âNo, I wonâtââ
âMy daughter had a father and I am tired of it allâŠ
this ends TODAY!!ââ Megan screams at her father
They are shouting at each other, no one pay
attention to the crying Kiki, no one sees her turning and walking away⊠running away⊠from the noise, the shouting and the fighting.
No one does until it is too lateâŠand thenâŠâŠ
They hear the tires screech, they see the car
swerving and hitting the fenceâŠthen they say a girl lying on the floor, unmoving, then finally, they see a small pool of blood.
âKIKI!!!â Megan screams, then she began to run towards her daughter lying in the middle of the road⊠she wasnât breathing.
âCall 911 SOMEBODY, CALL 911..KIKI!!â Megan wails, Tonia grabs her phone and dials⊠her voice breaking and her hands shakingâŠ
Sean has his hands on his head and one to his
heart⊠something happened to his heart⊠as he staggers..
Charles freezes, Ruth,Tonia and Zachary rushes to Megan as Sean gets there first gathering Kiki into his arms..
âShe⊠she isnât breathing â he chokes as tears feels his eyes,
âShe isnât breathingâ his eyes meets MeganâsâŠ
she began to wail hysterically like a crazy person.
