Episode 27

Bisi had waited for Victor to call her as usually but he didn’t and after three days,
Victor did never speak to her. She went to his office where he works and was like
foaming in anger when she saw him.
“victor, i don’t understand you any more honestly. You have not been picking my calls and yet you did not bother to call and ask
about me come to talk of seeing me. Please
its so unfair.” she lamented
“why should i bother to see you when you know all the while that Sophia is the one i have been searching for” Victor shouted at
her
she became shocked immediately at what he said .

“come again , i did not hear you right.” she said

“Stop that pretence. You know that who i have been searching for all the while is Sophia your friend and you did not bother
to tell me.”

“did you mean that Sophia is the one you have been searching for?” Bisi asked in pretence
“oh come on who did you think you are deceiving. I know you are the one that stole
that necklaceFrom Sophia so she won’t get
to locate me” victor said

Bisi was now filled with shame as she
wondered how he manage to find out
about all that. How ever, victor went ahead
“i know you are that yeruba girl that always
fight and cause me back then in Onitsha. So
stop pretending . You are deceiving yourself”
her eyes opened more wider in anguish. She stood and went to where he was seating
and started pleading
“please Victor i am sorry for all that. Then we were still children and i abused you out of
ignorant.”

“that’s not my problem. I can never have problem with people in my pass because they all contributed to my success. My anger is that you know the truth , instead of telling me you decide to kill it” said Victor

“i am sorry. I am afraid of losing you to another person because i love you” she pleaded

“no that is not Love , its selfishNess. If it is love, you would help me locate the person i
love .”

“please for give me. Am so sorry. Don’t leave me like this please” she she pleaded Pleaded
“you know what bisi? Its over between us!”he said in anger
“you can’t do that, ”
she said in disbelief
“here i just did it. It is totally over between us” he said louder than before
with that , he took his file and headed out of the office. Right at the door post , he turned
around and said to her

“you can go when ever it pleases you. You just disgust me and your present irritate’s
me.” and then went off the office.
She noticed that tears was dropping from
her eyes so she made use of her
handkerchief. And then went off the office to sophia’s Boutique to question her.
Luckily , Faith was there as well. She didn’t cease crying when she reached. faith was busy
consoling her . When Sophia was less busy, she joined them to know what it is that that is
making her friend to cry so much. Bisi’s eyes caught the exact necklace she stole on
Sophia’s neck immediately she came close.

At that junction, she turned out to be more surprise than sad.

” i thought you said this necklace was missingHow did you manage to get it back again?”
” I saw it under my blanket . It must have loosed from my neck when i was sleeping.”
Sophia lied pretending to be unawares of the condition behind the recovery of the definite necklace
“are you sure?” Bisi asked because she was still not satisfied with the answer she got.
“yea. I’m the one that found it self” faith said after communicating with Sophia through the gesturing of the eyes.
“so what have your boy friend done to you this time around?” Sophia asked
“he broke up with me” Bisi answered sadly
“that’s bad enough . What did you do to him to warrant such an act.” faith asked
“on that he suspected i was lying to him while i wasnt. ” Bisi lied. And Sophia and
faith looked at themselves again making a funny face . That was a way of mocking what she said.

“so Sophia have you met him before?” Bisi asked

“yes. That was when i warned him to stop hurting you.
