Nonso stood waiting anxiously by the door leading to Becca's ward. His heart was racing so fast as thoughts of what could happen to Becca filled his mind.
He still couldn't fathom why she drank hypo. Adaora never told him the reason."Becca why will you do such to yourself?

Nonso took a glance at Adaora who was crying bitterly as his mother tried consoling her."Adaora stop crying now. She will be fine"Mrs blessing said trying to reassure Adaora but she just kept on weeping uncontrollably."Mama you won't understand. Rebecca means the world to me. If anything happens to her I'll kill myself!"Adaora lamented as she buried her face in her hands."You won'

Lydia was dumbstruck when Mrs Justice uttered that statement. Her blood boiled and she restrained herself from screaming. She took a cursory glance at Ogechi who had confusion written all over her face.She cursed under her breath and swallowed the bile forming in her throat."Em.em..Ada you mean you want to see Amara's work?"Lydia asked nervously.Mrs Justice nodded her head in response to the question.It felt like the hatred Lydia had for Amara just inflated."But...but..amara is still learning from my daughter...."Lydia began to speak in order to put her daughter back in the spotlight."I know that but i want to still see what she can sew.

I went out. If not,what is pounded yam that I can't prepare?"Ogechi scoffed.Nne cursed her in our igbo dialect and hissed at her."Come on shut up. If you had sense I would have supported you too.

She even works with her and said Ogechi taught Amara how to sew"Nne furrowed her eyebrows at Mrs Justice. "Why would Lydia utter such a lie? There must be something attached to it. She wants to be on her good side that's why she is trying to paint a good picture of herself to Ada""But ogechi is still my daughter as well as Amara.

"Where is that stupid girl?"Ogechi muttered out loud as she stood outside the door of the house, waiting anxiously for Amara. She came back with a growling stomach and expected Amara to be done cooking but was shocked to find Amara not in the house and the melon seeds left unattended."Amarachi I swear I'll deal with you"Ogechi said, anger laced in her tone. The gate opened and Lydia walked inside."My princess why are you standing there?""Mama that Amarachi is stupid oh!
