Episode 24

Ring ring ring

Niphemi talked on fone for several minutes, he looked alarmed, he picked his car keys and left the office.

……………………………………………………………………

“hello ma, he just left the office, it seems he’s going to meet her” the secretary said into the fone.

…………………………………………………………………….

Anita sat uncomfortably in a room at their designated guest house for there usual meetings. She’s waiting for Niphemi to arrive, they have to do something about this.

Several minutes later, Niphemi’s sited nervously before her……

“before you say anything, let me ask, do you know Adesewa?” he asked being concise

“Which Adesewa are you talking about”

“Stop beating around the bush and just answer me, I mean Adesewa from my place of work” He said trying to contain his anger.

“Adesewa is my daughter” she said

“You never told me you had a daughter, are you bent on destroying my life” he said flaring up.

“What is the meaning of all this you are throwing at me, I left my daughter when she was young, just found her and instead of you been happy for me, you stand there shouting on me, what as my daughter got to do with my calling you to come her” she fired back

“She has everything to do with this, she is my fiancee” he shouted holding his head in his hands and punching the wall.

“What……My Adesewa….you mean you two are……your fiancee…..” she stuttered breaking down, still trying to figure out the whole scenario…

“So you see why she has everything to do with this, I can’t afford to lose her, I owe my life to her, so we rather end this now before this gets out of hand” he said turning to face her.

“Its not that simple anymore, you mean you and Adesewa are dating, my own daughter, so you are f**king both me and my daughter?, I am finished” she said still trying to wake herself up from the sleep.

“Why do you say its not that simple anymore?”

No answer

“Tell me why you said its not that simple anymore” he said louder

Still no answer

“Tell me why you said its not that simple anymore” he shouted shaking her furiously

“Because I’m pregnant” she said softly visibly shaken.

Everything when numb, the earth stood still, the air got heavier, just like God paused the earth. Niphemi staggered back, almost falling. He can bet he was walking on the ceiling, his eyes when haphazard with its duty, working of its on accord, got blurry.

His blurry eyes caught sight of something, something or someone, someone, the person is falling…..his brain picked the pulse and focused on the person just as he heard a thud sound. He rushed towards the person………

“Adesewa” he cried
