🙎 A Daughter’s Revenge EPISODE SIXTY FIVE:
PREVIOUSLY ON A DAUGHTER’S REVENGE:
..on a fateful early morning, Kelechi’s phone was what woke him up from sleep as it rang persistently.
It was Precious calling.
He reluctantly picked up the call with a sleeping eyes.
The news he heard cleared the sleep off his eyes immediately.
Precious was pregnant for him.
In fact, KC doesn’t know whether to be happy or sad upon confirming that the pregnancy of Precious was true.
Meanwhile, KC was still in a relationship with Martha despite the fact that their relationship was very tenuous. Because they have not ended it yet.
And Martha, on the other hand, was still in a very big trauma.
THE CONTINUATION:
Martha stood before the giant mirror in her room staring in disappointment at the figure standing face-to-face with her.
The tears rolling down her cheeks were capable of filling buckets.
‘This is not the Martha I used to know. This is the shadow of my former self. This is the finished Martha. This is Martha who has ruined her life. This is Martha who has nothing left again in her life. This is the bàrren Martha; the Martha that can never give birth to a child again,’ she paused amid tears. ‘God, I know I have sinned against you, please have mercy upon my life. Forgive me my trespass. Please give me a second chance again. Please redeem me from the destruction I am wallowing..,’ Martha cried out bitterly. As she slumped to the ground.
Meanwhile, Martha has had unsuccessful sûîcide attempts several times.
The last attempt to take her life, it was KC that even saved her life.
That fateful day, Martha fed her stomach with a poisonous substance. She was alone in the house that Sunday afternoon.
Moments later, the poison started work in her stomach. It was as if florists were cutting off her intestines like overgrown flowers. As she was in severe pain.
KC came and met Martha vomiting blood. So he had to jerk her up straight to downstairs. Though it wasn’t easy, but he managed to put Martha into his vehicle and rushed her to the hospital.
Meanwhile, KC had come to check up on her that day because it has been long they have seen. Though they have been in touch with each other via the phone.
That very Sunday, KC didn’t know exactly what came over him. He was just acting like one being controlled with a remote. That day, he left his friends in the beer parlor and headed straight to Martha’s place. He even left without uttering a word to anyone, just like one under the influence of 419 fràûdstèrs.
Thank goodness Martha’s life was saved in the hospital as the poison has not eaten deep into her.
KC always appeared in Martha’s life in a very crucial time despite how distant they kept to each other in their relationship. The same thing happened the other day Martha was hit by a hit-and-run vehicle.
That day, Martha was crossing a highway absentmindedly. The way she delved into the highway without careful observation forced the onlookers to think that she was on a suicîdè mission. In fact, the driver tried all his possible best not to hit her but to no avail. He hit her and sped off immediately. Because he thought that Martha was dead. Meanwhile, the vehicle hit her at a great speed and flinged her above ten feets up in the air and she somersaulted to the ground. She landed with her back on the tarred road.
People came and met her lifeless on the ground. As she was not breathing. Everybody thought she was dead. You need to see how people were crying and shouting on top of their voice. Even at that, some were busy taking pictures and videos of her.
No vehicle agreed to stop despite how people were flagging down vehicles in tears.
Moments later, one vehicle halted. The sympathizers briefed the driver and pleaded with him to help and rush the victim to the hospital. Without hesitation, the driver drove to the scene via reverse and came down to help and put the victim into his vehicle.
Coincidentally, the driver happened to be KC and the victim was Martha. KC was actually going for a supply at Ogun State.
Without any hesitation, KC single-handedly lifted Martha and straight to his vehicle before people could then lend him helping hands.
He drove off to the nearest hospital.
And as God may have it, Martha was resuscitated back. It was a miracle. Because even the doctor and nurses feared she was dead. So they wanted to give it a last shot before declaring her dead but miraculously, Martha came back to life again.
Days later, as Martha had fully recovered, KC had to ask her some questions. I mean questions he has been asking himself but couldn’t phantom an answer to any of them.
‘What happened? What took you there…I mean the place you had this accident because I wasn’t expecting to see you there?,’ he asked, full of confusion and curiosity.
‘Even me, I don’t know how I got there. I don’t know who took me there,’she heaved a deep breath. ‘But I think I am the one that took myself there. I trekked to that place. Because I can faintly remember leaving the house that morning under the control of a strange spirit,’ she paused, contemplating in great confusion. ‘I think something is wrong with me. But I don’t know exactly what is wrong with me. The thing comes and goes. It’s like a spirit. Whenever it comes, I would start acting mad. At times, I would leave the house wandering aimlessly on the road until it leaves me then I would get myself back. I don’t know what is wrong with me. I am just tired of the whole thing..,’ Martha was pouring out her frustrations amid tears.
‘Are you trying to tell me that you trekked all the way from Cement, Lagos State, down to Songo, Ogun State? Because I was heading to Abeokuta for a supply when I was stopped by the sympathizers. I don’t even know what came over me that day to have stopped because I don’t do that..,’ KC asked in surprise.
‘I am afraid, yes. I trekked…’, Martha replied, very confused.
KC was very confused too. As a matter of fact, he was very much afraid. Panicking. As he thought that Martha was going insane or maybe possessed.
As such, KC had to approach the doctor on the issue. He sincerely expressed his concern.
But the doctor assured him that there was no cause for alarm.
‘Mr. Kelechi, you don’t have to panic. Martha is not insane nor is she possessed. But she’s going through a severe trauma,’ he paused. ‘You know, we all could lose it from time to time, but it only lasts short or even long depending on the severity of the trauma. When we are in shock, when something overwhelms us to an extreme, we could be so scared that we may get confused. The frontal part of the brain gets deprived of energy (blood and oxygen) and we may get confused about what’s real and what’s not. We may then act in an “insane” way (unexpected, unpredictable, not socially accepted), like a cornered animal that would attack no matter how big the aggressor, even if there is no aggressor.
But we all come back to “our senses” in a matter of time. If not, then it means that the person was already so dysregulated that the breaking point was meant to happen. That person then may go into a psychotic episode.
In a nutshell, Martha will be fine. All she needs now is care and her loved ones around her to defeat the trauma..’, the doctor explained.
So when Martha was discharged from the hospital, KC didn’t abandon her completely. He supported her both emotionally and physically.
And his unreserved and unwavering support helped Martha in her recovery both physically and psychological.
All KC was doing, he was doing it for the sake of humanity and out of the pity he had on Martha.
