Dream wake NO SHOW
Chapter 24EYAREI expected Red to have contacted me on the day he said he would.That was one week ago.I had been holding back on calling him, because I didn't want to seem too eager, but damn it, this was my wife we were talking about.My hands hovered over my phone. They were itching to tap on his number.Oh what the heck!I snatched it up and dialed his number. It rang and rang until it rang off. I called again, still no pick up. I stood up from my chair and began pacing the length of my office. I just knew I wasn't going to get any job done today. When I looked at the time, it was 3 o'clock in the afternoon.I'd better push off home then. I'd cleared my table for the day, anyway. I stuck my head into Mr. Jolaoso's office and told him I was off. He grunted something unintelligible and continued typing on his laptop. I smiled. He didn't like being disturbed when he was working, it made him loose focus. I understood perfectly.As I drove unto the free way, I suddenly didn't feel li
Dream wake THE UNRAVELLING
Chapter 25OSAGIEDEThe door of the sitting room opened and closed, informing me that someone had come in. It was faint, but I'd always prided myself on my good hearing.I checked Eseosa to see if she was still sleeping. Little noises startled her these days. Luckily, she was still fast asleep.The house was quiet. Mum and dad were not yet awake, thankfully. I lied to them Eyare went for a business meeting and wouldn't be back home last night. I didn't want them to think we were having issues in our marriage. Truth is, our marriage was close to perfect. Better than most I"d heard of. I just didn't think I'd see the day Eyare would spend the night out of his matrimonial home.Was he having an affair?I pondered on this for a bit. I didn't think so.I hadn't been able to sleep at all last night. I was sick with worry and anger. I had oscillated between those two emotions all night. Another emotion had added itself to the duo --- fear.I was scared. Scared of the unknown. Scared somethin
Dream wake THE UBRAVELLING - II
Chapter 26EYARE"This is crazy! This is so fucking crazy. Can you please get a doctor to attend to my wife." I shouted at the nurses behind the desk. Two of them had taken the brunt of my tongue for the last ten minutes and sincerely, I felt sorry for them, but I just couldn't help myself.We had been in the hospital for a total of thirty minutes and were told the doctor --- all the doctors, if I might add, were in a surgery, attending to a burst appendix.It was life threatening, they said.Yes! But my wife's unconscious state was also life - threatening.Osagiede was put in a private hospital room with a neck - collar to stabilise her head to prevent minimal movement. There was an ugly bruise on her right cheek where she had fallen down. The nurses had cleaned it out, though it hadn't changed much in appearance. She was put on an antibacterial drip and had also been given series of injections.I was quite worried at the fact that she still hadn't woken up yet. She looked really lif
Dream wake THE EVIDENCE
Chapter 27EYAREShe broke the silence first. "The name's Imade." Her eyes flicked from the road and landed on me. Piercing eyes that assessed me. I knew she was waiting for me to reciprocate in kind, so I had to say something."That's a great name you have. How's it working out for you?"She smiled. "It means I did not fall."I nodded. "Yes, I know." And I fell silent. I realised she was waiting for me to introduce myself. This was evident as her eyes left the road once more and settled on me, with raised brows."I'm sorry Imade, my name is Eyare Osazuwa. I'm not just in a good place right now, please forgive me."There was a pause before she tentatively replied. "Are you by any chance related to the Osazuwa family? You know --- the great king of Ozala town?"As soon as she asked the question, I expected to feel the familiar tightness in my chest as I normally would when it popped up. Instead, I felt peace and I knew just what it was.I had finally come to terms with who my father wa
Dream wake THE FORGOTEN
Chapter 28UNKNOWNMy memory had dimmed drastically ever since I had been brought here.I was a man with good robust health and full of zest for life. Now, I had become a husk --- a shell of my former self.I was a full - bodied man when I was alive.No, I was not alive now. This was not living. This was more like the living - dead.I could feel my ribs poking out of my skin. My legs were little more than prods, an extension of my laps. I no longer had much feeling in them anymore. My whole body had emaciated badly. I looked like a skeleton, like the walking dead.I heard some squeaking in the dimly lit room and knew my friends, the rats, were around. They did not fear me. They constantly crept out of corners, and skittered all over my body, biting and nipping at my already tender skin.Initially I would whimper with pain from the many bites, but now, I welcomed it. It was a kind of pleasure - pain for me, something to occupy my time and mind. Because of this, my skin constantly itched
Dream wake GETTING BUSY
Chapter 29GBOYEGAThe next few days became hectic at work.It didn't help that Elza and the kids were around. I mean I love my wife and children, granted, but whenever I get home after a hard day's job, I just wanted to rest.Francis is mini - me. He's a split image of me at 11. He liked to play pranks. He hides the Tv remote at exactly the time when all I want to do is put my feet up and watch football.Stacey is like her mum. At just seven years of age, she likes to cook.I know what you're wondering. How can a seven year old know how to cook?Well my daughter Stacey is a whiz at cooking jollof rice.No jokes. Of course she's always supervised by her mum.As soon as I walked into the house, Stacey threw herself at me, almost knocking the breath out of me. She forgot she was not a baby anymore. She was almost as tall as Francis and he was almost as tall as me, and I was quite tall at 6 feet.No surprise where they got their genes from.Elza on the other hand was petite, at 5'3.Stace
Dream wake GUILT LEADS TO REGRET
Chapter 30My worst enemy is my father. . . and my memory - Geoffrey.GEOFFREYI had taken an oath to destroy Eyare from receiving his birth right when I was but a young boy, shy of thirteen years.Did I want to do it?Let's be frank, I didn't have much of an option.I was living a seriously repressed life by the man who fathered me. He forced me to do it. He said I would understand when I became a man.Should he be blamed for it, yes, but I could have fought against the tide.I could have fought against the spiritual pull.I could have fought against the lure.I could have fought, instead, I succumbed.So it became my fault too.I forgot all about it when I left the town to school in the city.I was living the life, enjoying myself, finding a breath of fresh air away from my oppressive father. I became the very embodiment of what I didn't want to be --- irresponsible and carefree.I womanized and broke the fragile hearts of women, just for the fun of it. I didn't know my fate had alre
Dream wake THE TRUTH SURFACES
Chapter 31When it comes right down to it - action speaks wayy louder than words!!OSAGIEDEWhen Geoffrey left, I stood there dully, staring at the door.Could what he said have been the truth?I missed Eyare so much, it physically hurt.I had decided to resign from my job because I needed time to sort out my family issues, but most importantly -- myself. I had taken too much leave time already, so that wasn't even an option.I still hadn't yet figured out what lay in store for both of us, if we were ever going to get past this hurdle. What Geoffrey said made me have a re - think. He and Eyare practically grew up like brothers and he knew Eyare's capabilities.Yes, but people changed, plus Eyare had been drinking a lot of alcohol of recent and I knew for sure that alcohol pushed men to do a lot of bad things.I was still lost in thought when I heard a knock on the door.I didn't feel like seeing anyone right now.I invited Geoffrey in because I wanted to know Eyare's whereabouts.
