Read Story: SEASON 1 EPISODE 8
DEJECTED, Timi watched Fred slowly drove away, and out of her sight
She became sad, who is behind all these?? She asked herself, racking her brain to come to a conclusion
Then it hit her, itâs either Peter or Annette, but obviously Annette, sheâs the root of it
So he had finally known what sheâs been hiding from him, he had known what sheâs
She took a last look at the route Fred took, and slowly walked away
She reached her momâs supermarket and opened up, then went to sit down to think up what next to do
Not up to few minutes has she settled down on a seat, someone came into the shop
She looked at the person to know if itâs a customer, but obviously not and the face looks familiar
Then it hit her, oh! It was the girl at the patent store opposite where she and Fred just vacated
What was she here for?
Cynthia, the girl that attended to Fred at the patent store vividly saw all that transpired between Fred and a girl, just in front of her
So the girl was the reason heâs been behaving the way he does towards her, towards a girl willing to give herself to him
âI mean, who in his right senses, wouldnât want a girl willing to give her whole self to him?â, she asked herself, âit must have been this girl I saw the both of them ranting here, she must be the reason heâs been avoiding me, yesâ, she said, walking about the store
From what she heard them talking, he was asking her to stay away from him, meaning heâs free now
But no doubt, the girl wouldnât just let him be, she must have something in mind to do
She nodded her head, smirking
âI need to stop herâ, she said
But hold on, she doesnât even know her, but she looks familiar
She racked her brain to think
Oh yes, she normally bypasses every morning, the girl running the big supermarket over the street, yes itâs her
She decided to go talk to her. She walked out of the store and hurriedly walked to the supermarket, it was a popular one
Sochima hurriedly scuttled into the house, apparently looking out for Annette
She saw her bent over the dining table, playing with a teddy
âHey big sis?â, she called walking up to her
Annette turned her head to the direction of the voice calling, she was still bent over the table
âSochi?â, she called smiling
Sochima got to her and stopped, hands akimbo
âWhatâs really going on between you and Fred?â, she asked
Annette was confused, looking dazed
âWhat do you mean?â
Sochima sighed
âI mean, you and Fred, you are supposed to be together, but what I saw about four days agoâŠâ, she paused and folded her hands, âit scared the hell outta meâ, she said
Annette was astonished, her eyes wide open
âWhat did you see?â, she asked
âI saw him, I mean Fred and that âtolotoloâ at Ultimate Frisbee, when mom and I went to visit her friend, I think they were on a dateâ
Annetteâs heart skipped a beat, she stood up erect
âThe both of them?â, she asked, her voice seemed to be breaking
Sochima noticed it
âYeah, I remember you telling me something about him asking you for her contact, so I think theyâre datingâ, she said
Annette slowly looked away from her, and into space
She was lost in thought
If they visited Ultimate Frisbee as her sister said, four days ago, then why Peter coming to ask her who Fred was? Or why the dream she had few days ago?
It was both meaningless, if theyâre still together
âWell, he doesnât love meâ, she snapped
Sochima looked at her
âWhat do you mean by that?â
âYes, he doesnât love me, Iâm the only one who doesâ
âI donât see it like that big sisâ, Sochima concurred
âI see it like he really hasnât noticed youâ
âWhat do you mean?â
âWho would see this black beauty Iâve got for a sister, with all the curves in the right places, and still go after that turkey?â, Annette bursted into laughter
âOr is it because sheâs fair, and always like to be noticed wherever she goes?â, Sochima continued
Annette laughed
âYou have to stop that Sochi, itâs enoughâ, she laughed
âWell, as for me I believe he just hasnât noticed you, thatâs allâ
âHe just doesnât love meâ
Sochima looked at her
âI think you want us to go for a testâ, she said
âHuh? What test?â
âTo know if he doesnât loves you or he just hasnât noticed youâ
âSo how would you achieve that?â
âWe will go to their house, you know aunty Sarah, his mom admires you a lot. She would be of helpâ
Annette thought for a while, what was this girl talking about?
She decided to let her have her way
âWell letâs give it a tryâ
Sochima smiled
âThatâs just it, a tryâ, she smiled
Timi stood up to listen to what the girl has to say
âYeah? Who are you and what do you want?â, she asked, her hands folded
Cynthia just had her eyeballs staring daggers at her, if eyes could kill, Timi would have long been dead
âI just want you to stay away from Fred, heâs for meâ, she whispered and walked away
Timi was stunned for a second, what was she trying to say
Then she laughed out
Who was this one? Theyâre talking about important people in the play, and this one without head nor tail popped out
She laughed again
What can this one do? She hissed
But a thought came to her, the girl might be of help. Who knows? Yes, she gonna help
She smiled and followed her
They got to the patent store together and Cynthia was shocked to see her
âWhat are you doing here?â, she barked
Timi smiled
âYou came to my shop minutes ago, so Iâm here tooâ
âWhat do you want?â, Cynthia shouted
Timi was taken aback. Hot blooded
âChill okay, Iâve not come to kill youâ, she smiled
Cynthia looked at her with suspicious eyes. What does she want now?
âSo what do you want?â
âHey, your blood looks hot, just chill and listen to what I have to sayâ
Cynthia sighed
âIâm listeningâ
Timi thought, how she gonna bring up the discussion?
âWhat relationship do you have with Fred?â, she finally asked
Cynthia looked at her
âExcuse me?â
Timi shook her head
âI want to help ok? I want to help, just tell me what I want to knowâ
Cynthia hesitated for a while
âOkay, heâs my boyfriendâ, she lied
Timi laughed in her mind
Boyfriend indeed, Fred doesnât have any other girl. Sheâs probably one of his admirers, she knew the girl was lying
âOkay I ask becauseâŠ.. I guess you must have seen him talking to me about an hour ago?â, she asked
Cynthia nodded
âYesâ
âOkay, that wasnât me. I mean he wasnât referring to me. Heâs actually interested in a friend of mine, and I was trying to talk things with himâ
Cynthia didnât believed her
âTrying to talk things with him for your friend or what?â, she asked
Timi smiled, this girl wasnât a daft, but sheâs not a daft herself
âMy friend whom he likes made him mad, I was trying to calm him downâ
Cynthia nodded, she was becoming at ease with her now
âSo what next?â, she asked
Timi sighed, smoothing her hair
âThat my so called friend made me annoyed, and I can see you want him, I mean Fred, so I want us to come together to put her out of the wayâ
Cynthia was confused
âI still donât understandâ
Timi looked around, to be sure there wasnât a third party, then walked closer to her and whispered
âLetâs kill herâ
Cynthia quickly moved back, she was shocked.
