Dream wake SOME TRUE FACTS ABOUT THE OBA OF BENIN
Hi guys, when I was writing this story, I didn't think for once it would be a story about an heir to the throne. Truth is, as I write, inspiration comes to me.My Edo name is actually Osagiede and I decided to use it for my female character. No, I'm not married yet, neither would I do what she did to my husband, like at all. Lol.So inspiration struck me to make Eyare as the next king or Oba, if you like.So here are a few truths about the Oba of Benin and how powerful he is:1.) The Oba of Benin is seen as the most powerful man in Benin and possibly, in the whole of Nigeria.A lie, you say?Well, he once left former President Good luck Jonathan sitting and waiting for him for about fifteen minutes. Even then, he never came out.A court messenger was sent to former president Goodluck to tell him to meet with the Oba in his private chambers due to circumstances beyond his control.2.) When he is seen in public, he always has a white handkerchief covering his mouth, same with his wives.
Dream wake EPILOGUE
EyareAs I lay on the deck chair soaking some sun into my body, I reminisced on times past.Osagiede told me black people don't sun themselves - that we're already black. I disagreed with her there. All creatures black and white needed the sun for sustenainance.Sea gulls screeched overhead, their white wings fluttering as they craned their long graceful necks. They really were beautiful creatures.Maldives was a beautiful place with white clean sea shores and water so clear and blue, you could actually see deep below.Eseosa ran around in a one - piece bathing suit, her two hands high on either side of her. She made a noise like the sound of a plane. When she saw me watching her, she rushed to me."Daddy, come and play with me." She began to drag me up from the chair and I reluctantly got up and joined her. I knew I looked silly, but I needed do what my little princess wanted. At three years old, she was a force to be reckoned with.I heard someone laughing and I looked up to see Osag
Dream wake THE CORONATION - II
Chapter 41EyareOne hour was almost up and I was yet to come to a decision.It was a difficult decision to take after all.If I agreed to do it, not only would I be adhering to some strange religion, I would also be letting my father down who abolished all forms of paganism. And then they might also bring another hurdle my way.If on the other hand I disagreed, they would do all in their power to stop me from becoming king.I felt stuck.Try as much as I could, I couldn't think of a way out of this mess. I joined mother in pacing.I was damned if I did, damned if I didn't.The time was up. The one hour I had given came and went.The high chiefs began to file in one by one. When they were seated, Chief Idionsere stood up and addressed me."So my prince, have you come to a decision yet?" I looked at each of the chief's faces individually. They all seemed pleased with themselves.I had definitely come to a decision.I would definitely not partake in such ungodly, unholy fetish tradition.
Dream wake THE CORONATION - I
Chapter 40OsagiedeThe day loomed bright and clear, but as usual, Eyare was still asleep. If care was not taken, he would be late for his own coronation. I had already had a bath and given Eseosa one too, all that was needed was for us to dress up. I sighed impatiently and tapped him on the shoulder."Unnnng!" I rolled my eyes at his response."Wake up, sleepy head, your coronation is in a few hours time. Remember you have a meeting with the high chiefs first and that is in about two hours from now." He shot up like a light, looking like he'd just seen a ghost.It was really amusing seeing him hopping on one leg trying to remove one leg of his boxers. He stumbled and fell, almost giving me a heart attack. He began to laugh at himself and I only joined in when I saw he was okay.I left him to his business while I went to check on the women who were cooking. The house had been in a festive period the past one week. As I descended the stairs, I admired the beautiful flowers that had been
Dream wake A HAPPY REUNION
Chapter 39EyareI had been back home for a few days and I still avoided talking with Osagiede about her affair with Osaze.I knew it wasn't her fault, but that didn't mean it wasn't a sore subject for me.I had put it off for too long. I couldn't continue to do it for much longer. I would have to broach the subject soon.She had been jumpy and sad around me, even though I would occasionally catch her looking at me with a smile on her face.I noticed she also looked pale and sick. She had been retching every morning and I worried for her. When I asked what was wrong, she avoided my eyes, shook her head and replied in a quiet voice that she was fine.I suggested we go to the hospital, but she always turned it down. I hoped she wasn't coming down with some bacterial infection. If she continued this way, I would have no option but to force her to the hospital.She was talking to mother at the kitchen table and they were cooking up some delicacy. Just for me, they said. This was part one,
Dream wake A WAY FORWARD
Chapter 38OsagiedeI took in the scene before me and I vowed that my heart skipped some precious beats. It left me holding unto the door post for aid.Eyare had a knife to Eseosa's neck and was mumbling unintelligible words. His hands were a tight clamp round her neck.Something seemed off.His eyes were open, but blank - unseeing, like he wasn't there at all mentally. His face had taken on a slack look, as if his muscles were no longer functioning. He didn't look like the man I knew, like the man I married.Spittle dribbled down his lips and his head lolled to one side.I was distinctly reminded of a zombie -- a mindless zombie. He shifted backwards and forwards on his feet, as if unsure of which direction to take.Eseosa was crying pathetically and I just stood helplessly, unsure of what to do. She looked anguished and confused. She sighted me and lifted a hand up, calling me for aid to help her.The life of my daughter flashed before me. Her birth, the news of the debilitating sick
