π«π In The Name Of Love Episode Nine:
Getting outside, I couldn’t believe whom it was seated and eating.it was father, yessss, my father, in company of a young lady..
Father, I called surprised….
Imade,how are you, how’s Sammy,he asked smiling not looking as shocked as I was to see him…
That’s my daughter,the one I told you about,I could hear him tell the lady…
Oh really, she’s so beautiful,hellooooo,the lady said, waving at me smiling…
I was too shocked to move nor say a word to her…
Mother may had heard his voice,and so rushed out,by now father had continued eating with the lady like nothing happened, apparently,father had brought his concubine to mother’s shop,just to get her angrier I guess….
What’s going on here Efosa,what are you doing in my shop,mother asked in so much anger..
Hello Imade,the last time I checked,this place is a restaurant,where people come to buy food.my darling baby, Said she wanted to eat here,and so we are here.father said looking at his lady sheepishly and smiling…
Efosa,take your stupid self and whoever you came with out of my shop immediately,mother shouted..
I have paid for our meal,and we are going to eat and then leave when we are done,,if you don’t want me to create a scene in your shop,you had better take yourself inside and allow us enjoy our meal,father said with pride..
Honey, who’s that,the lady asked..
That’s my good for nothing ex wife, the one I told you about right, father said..
Oh,I see,the lady said with less concern and they both went on with their food….
Mother was still very much angry,but she knew indeed father could really make a scene there,she didn’t want that in her shop,and so she ignored father…
Mary,Osato, mother called her helpers…
Let this be the very last time you’d sell food to these two,mother said to them putting to father and his mistress,the next time any of you do, would be your last day here,mother said to them And went inside…
I followed her back Inside…..
How could Efosa do this to me,what in heaven’s name did I do to deserve such from him,what kind of embarrassment is this,mother asked no one exactly and cried sorrowfully,and it really hurt me seeing her that way.
I could feel her pain,and it hurt me so much there was nothing I could do to help her…
Ade,Ade,father called me,…
I came out but didn’t say a word..
This is your second mummy, won’t you say hi to her, father said to me..I gave him a very disgusting look.
Here, take this,for you and your brother,he says and stretched #500 to me.i didn’t move nor Said anything to him…
Oh your mother has asked you not to collect money from me, okay,you are on your own,he returned the money to his pocket and left with the lady….
When we got home,mother told grannies what father had done,grandpa was very mad at him .
I will deal with that boy,oh I will, grandpa said angrily….
Baba please,Efosa is too small to make you this angry,I have decided to relocate my business else where,I learnt his new apartment isn’t far from my shop,I am sure he did it on purpose,but never again will Efosa cause me pain, I’d manage the business there for the remaining days of this month,so I’d get my workers prepared for the new development,then I’d stop,the children will resume in a school close by,mother said…
Oh,my daughter, that’s a very good decision, you’d have to stay far from everything that reminds you of that good for nothing, grandma said …..
My daughter?,what ever decision you Make,I, your mother and brothers are solidly behind you,as long as it doesn’t involve going back to Efosa, grandpa said and soon followed with a hug….
School hadn’t resumed yet,so I was still following mother to the shop.
Father would always pass with the lady, both laughing, and chatting beautifully…
The first two times were difficult for mom,but sooner than later,she got used to it and wasn’t bothered by it, infact she was only surprised at the level of father’s foolishness, and how she had managed to stay with him that long …
Mother had told aunty mary and Osato the latest development,they were sad,as they’d be jobless in few days,but then they understood mother’s plight….
The month soon came to an end,and mother quit her business,she took everything home, accompanied by her workers…
Madam,you are such a nice woman, working with you has been a blessing, God will richly bless you ma,aunty mary said..
You are one of the kindest women I have ever seen,I pray that the earth,sun,moon and stars favors you.aunty Osato said…
Thanks alot you two,It’s been awesome working with the both of you too,if not for the situation at hand, trust me,I wouldn’t have let you two go,this is your salary,I doubled it,as I know it may not be easy getting a new job, mother said and handed over their envelopes to them,they both jumped for joy and hugged mother tightly in appreciation….
Two days on, grandfather called mother asking her if she had seen space for her new shop…
Baba,you said you,iye and my elder brothers are with me in any decision I take right, mother asked.
Yes my daughter,you know how much your brothers overseas loves and adore you,I know they are very much ready to support you,of course you know I and your mother will too, grandpa said.
Father,will it be too much to ask for education, especially since my children will also be going to school,mother said gently…
Imade,if I understand,you,you want to go back to school?, grandpa asked….
Yes baba,I want to be a better lady, educated and confident,mother said…
Oh my daughter,that has been my dream for you,that my only daughter be well educated, grandpa said happily….
So baba,will you convince my brothers to sponsor me to school,mother asked…
My dear,I have raised the topic before, telling them I wish you’d further your education,they said they didn’t know how you’d take the idea since you have children now,but if you ever decide to, they are ready to sponsor you and the kids, and of course I am here too, grandpa said…
Really,oh baba,thank you so much,mother said going on her knees, grandma too was very happy.
Mother called her brothers abroad and informed them she was ready to further her education,they were very happy and proud of her…..
School had resumed for the second term and in January too, uncles had sent money and Sammy and I were registered in a big and well to do school,, mother had also enrolled for JAMB examination…
Somehow in my heart,I was scared of the whole thing, would mother be able to achieve this,how would she go about it,I mean considering it’s been almost 10years she left secondary school…
She soon registered for JAMB classes,in a hereby lecture house,she didn’t mind her age,been among the oldest of the class,she bought necessary books and she was studying so hard,indeed never understand estimate the power of a determined woman.
Mother even served as a motivation to Sammy and I, as she’s studying,we are studying ours too, especially me,I was marvelled at my mother’s determination, and I wanted to be like her,which was impacting in my studies positively…
After months of studying so hard and have written the exams,the results were finally out.
Mother had gone out to check her score,I, grandma and grandpa were so tensed,we prayed sincerely, hoping mother made the average mark,as we didn’t want all her efforts to go to waste…
But when she returned in a few hours,we needed not asking,as her facial expression had given us the answer we wanted.
