I could see Uchechi staring at me from my side view, She cocked her eyebrows in a subtle way of asking me what was wrong. After the encounter with Tatiana, I left the hospital immediately without checking up on my husband, I was scared of the unknown and known. I ran out the hospital got a taxify and here am I in Uchechi's house.
But how do I tell my best friend I'm dead meat. How do I tell my best friend my husband was in the hospital, and he will probably not remember he has a wife or kids. How do I explain to her I was the cause of it all, how do I open my mouth to tell her I was drugged and raped by one of my husband's friends ? To cap it all how do I even tell her my husband might not even be the father of my children or that he has baby mama who just insulted and threatened me not to long ago. How? My life was just in chaos, I'm exasperated.
I rolled my eyes in a way I hoped made me appear nonchalant. I
My kids were missing, my husband was awake. I didn't know what to do. I got more confused as I paced round Uchechi's. We already went to the police station to report the missing kids, I and their grandparents gave the police our statements before leaving them to do their job.I was like a dead woman living, nothing else bothered me than my missing children. I just wished it was a game of hide and seek. I kept hoping they will come out of their hiding place telling me it was all a play. But no matter how I wished, it didn't happen. Where as it became more painful."Sewa, I think you need to go to the hospital to see your husband," Uchechi broke into my thoughts, but I ignored her entirely."Sewa!" she screamed.I jerked up in fear, my eyes widening. I shut my eyes close when I saw she was only trying to get my attention."Uchechi
Two months laterKene was finally back home and of course he was getting better, the injuries he sustained from the accident were already healing up, but he was yet to recover his memory. He didn't even remember he had kids and I didn't bother mentioning it to him, I've been keeping him at arm's length since he came home with Tatiana, yeah that psycho. Talking about the kids, I'm just glad they have been found. Every morning I woke up with relief knowing my kids were safe with my father.Thanks to Ada, yeah the crazy one. We were able to trace the kidnappers Tatiana probably hired with the help of an insider. I'm still shocked Ada still has a good blood in her, well people change, but what made Ada actually change ? I smiled in relief, we did the DNA test of the triplets and it marched correctly with Kene's. He was the father of those kids, an amazing thing. But the most amazing thing was that Niyi absolutely confessed, he narrat
"Wow, what a good storyteller" Tatiana said as she came into the kitchen, still clapping her hands. I have feeling she must have been outside for a while."Tatiana, enough of this. Stay out of this. I'm here discussing with my wife. Whatever she tells me is not of your business, I asked for it and I choose to believe it." Kene said, facing Tatiana.I watched Tatiana as she moved round the kitchen, I could read the anger in her eyes."What am I? I'm I not your wife too?" she asked Kene.I felt tempted to scream 'No' but I had to restrain the urge."I don't know, that's what you told me, that is what you made me believe,""But I don't think I can stoop so low to marry a second wife, I know our daughter looks exactly like me, but what I don't understand is how,""The truth is I don't trust you Tatiana, I don't know why but
Years later."Mum, I need your help over here, please. I have a speech to deliver on Social's day. " Tami my sixteen years old daughter shouted.I chuckled softly as I gently untangled myself from Kene's hold. He groaned in protest."Anytime I am enjoying my wife's company, that little girl keeps disturbing." he moaned."Stop acting like a big baby," I whispered, pecking him on his lips."And you know she hates it when you call her little." I whispered, slapping his hands that were cupping my breasts away.I walked out of our room barefooted, heading over to my daughters room to have a mother to daughter conversation with her. She was probably about to tell my crush.I believe parents, most especially mothers are meant to and should establish a good communication channel with their children. They must be able to express
Jobs! One of the things that were hard to get in Nigeria was a job. My heart kept beating fast as I awaited my interview, in a few minutes time I will be called into the CEO's office and that scared me senselessly. Unlike others applicants, my interview was different. I was to be interviewed by the CEO of Ian's company, since I applied for the position of a personal secretary.I looked around the waiting room, shivering a bit. I glanced around with an impatient frown on my face. A young man in grey tuxedo came in, holding tightly to a newspaper. I could see his face was striking. The wide cheek bones and sensuous lips were noticeable. His eyebrows and lashes were as dark as his hair. I couldn't help but imagine, does he have wife? Or was he engaged? My curiosity was just aroused.Then unexpectedly, he looked up and our eyes met. His eyes didn't have a moody or bored look. They were sharply alert, a tremour ran through my spine at
In spite of the rate of unemployment in the country, I still got a job and not just an ordinary job. A job in one of the top five companies in Nigeria. A personal secretary to Mr Ian, the CEO of the well known Ian's companies. The man who has chains of a plethora of businesses in Nigeria.After an hectic preparation of making sure I was looking smoking hot for the club's outing and getting things ready for tomorrow's resumption. I was ready to go out to party.I was wearing a silver glittering mini gown and a black knee strap boots, with my black hair running down my shoulders in a curly wave. I applied a dark red lipstick to my lips to touch up my makeup. I looked perfect, the eyeliner brought out my almond shaped eyes. I flipped my hair over my right shoulder.I looked smoking hot, I giggled as I practiced seduction."It's time to party." I muttered under my breath.
Reluctantly I pulled into the parking space and dragged my feet all the way in the front door of the gaping company tower. Ian and Co was boldly written at the frontal part of the massive looking company. Thanks to Chi who allowed me to make use of her car when mine developed an unforeseen fault this morning, or else I would not have been able to get to the company as early as this.A couple of staffs stood talking in the lobby as I opened the door, conversation instantly stopped as they artlessly stared at me as I entered. I kept walking with my head raised high, I continued through the foyer and into the open area of the so called main office, as soon as people saw me, a collective hush grew. I suddenly wished I could melt into the floor. I walked cautiously to the CEO's office, ignoring the alarming look on the secretary's office as she tried to stop me."Good morning, Mr Ian." I said breaking into his thoughts.
Two weeks later."I think Mr Ian is just jealous or he has an issue with Mr Adams," I said to Chi, as she kept chewing slices of breads and mayonnaise."I agree with that, or maybe he doesn't really know the actual meaning of flirting. Maybe you need to teach him." Chi replied with her mouth full."He has been getting on my nerves for days, when he's not my boyfriend, he's just too possessive, he keep forgetting he is just my boss,""Anytime he sees me talking to one of the male workers, he then starts crucifying me. I think he's bipolar cause what else explains his mood swings." I shouted, complaining bitterly to Chi."See just leave that man, at least he's paying you. But maybe he likes you." She replied me winking."Are you serious? Chi, please don't make me laugh. What does he want to like about me? We have fine girls, rich d
