******* Richard ‘s family travelled to their
village to re unite with their family
members two days after their Thanksgiving service ….. They had a
small get together where Richard and
Vanessa got to meet their extended
family….
They spent some days in the village
before travelling to Lagos to their grandparent’s house,.it was stressful for
Angela but she enjoying the tour,… She
doesn’t want to tell mama about her new
relationship with her best friend mama
Johnson, she wanted to surprise her
when she returns, ……. . She was filled with joy,…. She thanked God for bringing
her new family together again,…..
It was agreed that their grandmother will
relocate to Asaba,…. They wanted her to
be around them,.. Richard and his daddy
will be handling their family businesses in Asaba while their grandparent’s business
in Lagos will be handled by Vanessa and
her husband,…… It was not easy
convincing her husband to return to
Lagos and run the business,.. He wanted
to be Independent,… He doesn’t want to appear like a golddigger before his
inlaws,….. After much persuasions, he
agreed to return home,…
Richard made plans for him t to move out
of the house since it has been occupied
by his family, but his father begged him to keep them company since Vanessa
and her husband will be relocating to
Lagos with the twins,…
“But dad, i need some privacy with my
wife,… “Richard told his father
” I understand, but we’re used with the kids being around us,… This house is big
to accommodate all of us,.. I want to
watch your wife put to bed, “his
grandmother begged him
” Richie, mama is right,….if you leave with
your wife, the house will be boring for us, … Remember how much she adores your
wife,… “his father cut in
” I’ll talk to my wife about this,… I need to
discuss it with her,… ”
After they all retired to bed,… Richie
decided to talk to his wife about his decision of them leaving the house,….
“My Angel “he called her pecking her on
the cheek as they laid on their bed under
the warmth of the blanket watching
television in their room …
” I’m thinking of us getting our own apartment,…since you’ll soon put to bed,,
….. “he continued
” Aaaah, i cant go anywhere without
grandma,…. Baby pls, i want to stay
here,.. “she smirked at him
” But we need our privacy baby ,.. I feel the house is over crowded for us,…. ”
” But i’m not complaining,…. I need
grandma around me, i cant stay away
from her…. ”
After much argument,…… He agreed
they wont move out again ” Since you’re ok here,…. We’re staying,
…. “he told her
” Thanks so much baby,… “she said
kissing him
When she tried to disengage herself from
him,…. He held her tight,. ” Angel i’ve missed you so much,…… I’ve
not touched you for months,….. I need
you baby “be whispered into her ears
” I missed you too baby,…. “she said
gulping his lips into her mouth,.
They kissed for some minutes before he went for her clothes,….. He gently
removed her nightie before removing his,
…… Angela was h---y already,…. It was
then she realized how much she had
missed him
” Baby, i’ll take it slowly,…. I don’t want to hurt our baby,…. “he said trying to enter
her
It was a bit tight but due to the discharge
from her inner body, it made it easier for
him to penetrate her from behind,….
He was moving in and out of her slowly and Angela was enjoying every bit of it,…
He was gentle with her,….
When they were done with their
rendezvous, they laid down on the bed
exhausted
“Baby i love you so much and i missed you,…..Now tell me,…. Do you want a boy
or a girl?,” he asked her
“Baby, both are important,.. I’ll be happy
with anyone,….. “she replied
” Hmmmm,…… Are you sure?,…. ”
” This one you’re asking me,… Seems you’re choosy,… Ok tell me, which one do
you prefer,…? ”
” Anyone”he said laughing
“Ok,…. which name would you love him to
bear if it’s a boy,..? . “he asked her
” I’ll name him Chidera,…… “she answered
” what if it’s a girl? “,
” Munachimso,……. “she answered
” that’s quite interesting, they’re lovely
names,… “he said
They chit chatted into the night before they slept off
ONE MONTH LATER
Mrs Johnson has fully recovered from her
illness, the doctors managed to save her
life,…. It was a miracle how she
recovered,… A man of God on hospital visitation told her that God gave her a
second chance to correct all her past
mistakes and to stay away from evil,…
She was warned against plotting evil
against an innocent soul cause that will
bring her doom…. .. She was finally discharged from the hospital,… She sat
down in her sitting room thinking deeply
…..
“So these children played with my
intelligence,…. Richard and his sister
have ended up destroying me,.. I dont even know how they managed to meet
their grandmother,..just look at that man,
Johnson, looking happy and fulfilled and
i’m here suffering…. .. I need to act fast,
…. I cant just surrender so easily,… I
cant allow these kids to win,…… I must bring back my lost glory either by force or
by war,…. The war have just began,……
They should be ready for my strike,……
“she thought to herself
She quickly picked her car key and drove
out,……. The continuous ringing of Angela’s
phone woke her up from slumber,. She
was enjoying her nap,.she lazily grabbed
her phone and checked her caller.. On
seeing the caller id, she smiled and
picked it…. “Hello Tope,.. Longest time,…. You forgot
me na”
“How can i forget you,….. My phone was
stolen and i lost most of my contacts,it
took me long before i found where i wrote
your number down in my diary,.. I’m sorry you didn’t hear from me for this long ,…..
“she lied
” Na wa oooo,…… And you couldn’t visit
me to know how i’ve been faring,…… ”
” My dear, i’ve been away for a while,.. So
tell me how’re you doing?,….. “I’m fine, i was calling to tell you about
my marriage,…i got married last month,…
”
Tope could not believe what she just
heard,…
” To who? “she threw back at her ” Haba,.. Easy na,…. Guess who? ”
Tope’s heart was beating faster,…. She
was overwhelmed with anxiety
” who na,……. Ok cut the suspense,…. I’ll
come to your village tomorrow to visit
you, just text the direction to your husband’s house to me,. ”
” Village? ”
” Yeah,i mean,….. A good hearted guy in
your village pitied your condition and
saved you from the shame of giving birth
to a b-----d,… I really need to meet this brave guy and show my appreciation ”
Angela felt bad at her friend’s choice of
words but she gladdened up
remembering those were in the past, at
least she’s now married to her heart
throb and her child is not a babstard after all.she decided to ignore what her friend
said,……. She smiled,..
” Richard is my husband,…. “she blunted
at her friend
” what!,…….? Is this a prank or what?
“Tope asked “A prank?,… We’ve had our traditional
marriage,….. As i’m talking to you, i’m in
his house, we now leave as husband and
wife,…..”
“How come?,….. I thought you never
wanted him around you,… Dont allow that boy to take advantage of your
memory loss,…. And now he has
succeeded in tying you in a marriage,..
“Tope blunted at her friend
” Why are you taking this personal,..
“Angela asked her ” Anyway i’m on my way to your house, i
want to confirm what you just told me,…..
”
” Ok, i’ll be waiting for you,…. ”
Amgela cut the call and laid on her back,.
She wondered why her friend is acting funny because she got married to
Richard,….. She noticed Tope was
screaming over the phone like a jealous
lover,…. She was still wondering, when
her husband returned,… He has been
returning home earlier than before since the doctor told them that she would put
to bed any moment,…she was in her
ninth month,….
He walked to her and pecked her
“Baby i’m famished,…… “he told his wife
who was helping him remove his suit,.. ” I prepared your favourite,……. Baby
ever since Vanessa and her family moved
to Lagos, this house is now lonely for me,
… Daddy is not around and grandma
spends most of her day in the church,.. I
dont have anyone to talk to you,. “she lamented
” Dont worry, soon our baby will arrive
and you wont be bored anymore,…..
Motherhood can never be boring,…. To
lighten your mood, we shall go shopping
for more baby things,.. ” Haven’t we bought enough,.? .. We
already have more than enough for the
baby,…. Let’s save the money”she
advised him
“This is my first child and i won’t mind
spending my last penny,.. So get ready, ….. ”
He had a cold shower and went down to
eat,…….. The cooked helped Angela
serve the food,…. They were about
eating when the doorbell rang,…. The
cook answered the door,… Tope walked in to see Angela and Richard eating
together,…..
” Oooooh, Tope, how’re you? “Angela
asked her
” I’m fine,.. So it’s true,… You didn’t even
bother telling me about your marriage,…. It’s unfair oooo, ”
Tope greeted Richard who ignored her,..
He begged his wife to allow him feed her,
…. Angela called her to join them but she
declined,…. She watched them in anger
as they continued with their lovey dovey game,..
She was served juice and snacks in the
sitting room,…. She peeped from time to
time to check on what the couples are
doing,….. When they finished eating,
they joined her in the sitting room,.. Richie excused himself and went upstairs
“So Tope how’ s your family? “Angela
broke the silence
” They’re fine,… My dear i’m still baffled
at the way you rushed your marriage,……
You didnt invite anybody,…. You know fully well that i’m the only trusted person
you have,. You should ‘ve confided in me
before rushing into this marriage “she
said bitterly,……
” But i love him,… I dont know why you
suddenly hate Richie this much,.. I know i had a memory loss, but i’m OK now,… I
remember everything him and i shared
before my accident, the baby i’m carrying
belongs to him,….. Just start to accept
the fact that i’m married to him,…. ”
” Memory loss?,… Whoever told you that, … Who told you that you had a memory
loss”
“I dont want to remember those horrible
days i treated Richie badly,… ”
Tope was not comfortable with what
Angela told her,…. She became restless,.. She suddenly announced her
exit,…. Angela stood up and walked her
to the door,……
Richard wants to put a stop to Tope and
his wife’s frindship,….
*********** The next morning was bright and Angela was getting ready for their
shopping,… Richie chose a short sexy
gown for her to wear with a matching flat
sandals,…. They were looking good in
their simple outfit,… Their grandma had
gone to the church as usual to pray,…. ***** Mrs Johnson had a warm bath, she
has a meeting with a buyer who was
interested in one of her properties,……
She was selling off her properties to
make ends meet,….. She doesn’t want
people to notice her bankruptcy,….. She has sold almost all she had in order to
clear the bank’s debt,….. She’s now left
with almost nothing,…. She has sold all
her cars except the one she’s using,…
Her meeting with mother supreme
supreme had brightened her up,.. At least there’s still hope,.. She was determined
to be successful in her last strike,…. She
has already started making
arrangements based on her agreement
with Mother Supreme supreme,…… She
dressed up and left immediately as she was already late for the appointment,….
******* Nancy called Angela as they were
making their entrance into the shopping
mall,.. They spoke for some minutes on
the phone before the call ended,….
Nancy have been busy with her wedding arrangements,…. She promised to visit
her friend the next day to know how she’s
faring and also give her what they got for
the baby,…..
*******They shopped for hours before
Angela started showing signs of tiredness,…. Her hubby took her to an
eatery in the shopping mall,.. And they
had a good meal … When they were
done with eating,….. They headed back
to complete their shopping,…
Angela was exhausted when they finished shopping,….. The waiters helped
them pack all they bought into the car,as
they were heading out of the mall,..they
ran into his step mother who had just
finished having a meeting with her
prospect buyer….. . “Good to see you again, Richard and
Angela,… “she said sarcastically
” Good day ma”Angela greeted her
“So it’s true,.. You’re pregnant,…
Hahahhahahahahahaha,…….. “she
mocked Angela Angela was frightened at her display of
madness,….
” You shall not live to see the face of this
thing you’re carrying,…… “she
threatened Angela
” Back to sender,.. He that is in me is bigger than he that is in you,….!!!!
“Angela screamed at her
” If anything happens to my baby, i swear
i wont spare you ” Rickard warned her
He dragged his wife out of the mall to the
car park,…. *******, Angela has been scared after the
incident at the mall, she even refused to
eat,. Richie told grandma what transpired
at the mall,….
“Dnt mind Benny,….. If she tries me, i’ll
make sure she rots in jail, “grandma said ” I’m ready for her, we’re waiting for her
next action,…. I’m now at alert,….. Baby
you dont need to be scared,….. I’m here
for you,…. “he assured her
She felt a bit relieved after listening to
her husband,. She later ate her food……… She was in the room gisitng
with Richard, when he told her of his
intentions,….
” Baby remember i told you about us
moving out,.. I paid four year rent for the
house,…. Since the house have been empty for a while,…. I furnished it and i
want your family to move into it,…….. ”
Angela, was in short words, she never
expected this,. She was overjoyed,…..
She kissed him all over his face,….. She
was thankful, she called her mother to break the news to her,… She told them to
pack as her husband will pick them in
three days time,…………..
