Episode 53

“Please forgive me,” Folake’s eyes glistered with tears. She wouldn’t have been able to forgive herself if her sister had not regained consciousness.

Her eyes smarted with tears, “I forgive you,” she reached out for her hand.

“I am sorry for stopping you from attending my wedding. Please forgive me,” Foluke pleade.
“It is okay,” tears streamed down her fair face.
“It is my fault. I failed you as a father.

I distanced myself from you instead of accepting you the way God has made you. Please forgive me for rejecting you for so long,” he sat at the side of the bed.
“I forgive you daddy,” she wiped her tears with the back of her hand.
“I am also at fault,” Jibike stared at her daughter, “I should have stood by you and loved you regardless of how you looked. I should have defended you,” she broke down, “I am sorry.”
“It is all right mummy,” joy filled her heart.

God had used the bad situation to reunite her family. She saw Dantenimu from the corner of her eyes. He gave her a thumbs up.
