*After Mom instructed Ella and I to come to her room, we followed her immediately with fears. What is she up to? Will she now kill us? As we entered her room, Mom came and hugged me tightly..

Mom: Thank you my son, thank you so much

Ella : My son?

Mike : ..confused.. Mommy are you OK?

Mom: I know everything that transpired between both you this night?

Mike: What are you talking about?

Mom: Ella go inside your rooms and check the back of your door, edge of the curtains

Ella : What for?

Mom: Go first

……a minute later

Ella : Miguel!

Mike : What happened?

Ella : CCTV cameras

Mike : What?

Mom: You can never outsmart me. I’ve been monitoring your rooms since you returned. I know sneaks into your room every night.

Mike : ..scared.. Mommy we didn’t do anything oh!

Mom: I know

Ella : So, why didn’t you react to it?

Mom: Because it’s not a dirty meeting

Ella: Should we now clap for you?

Mike : Ella

Mom: Let her speak, she’s angry.

Mike : Mom, do you still hate me?

Mom : Am sorry Mike, I never hated you. Your Dad said what you guys need right now in other not to misbehave is our support but I decided to use an iron hand instead. Forgive me my kids, if you think that it’s a test, then it is. There’s no true love story without hurdles.

Ella : Story! All those bad things you did was just a test. You even tried to kill Emeka.

Mom: I would never kill, I just threatened while making it look real.

Mike: OK fine, let’s say that twas just a test. Where did you get the heart to do such things?

Mom: Don’t forget I used to be in the army till I quit and started selling cosmetics\Provision 9 years ago. I can do anything I set my heart on but not at the expense of loosing the love of my kids. What Ella did today brought me back to my senses, I came to realize that I am at the verge of loosing my precious little minnows.

Ella : So, you watched everything? Like, everything!

Mom:..smiles.. Both of you come here and sit down let me tell you the full story.
