"HE'S NOT MY SON,EMEKA IS NOT MY SON!!" Mama said and everywhere went dead.
We were leaving that night so I was busy packing my clothes into the box, I have never seen emeka that angry all my days of knowing him. He booked a flight that night and said we're going back to the city.
The news broke him. His mum died immediately after he was born and his father married another wife,Ebuka's mum who took care of him till now.
She really loved and cared for emeka until I came into the picture.
She was extremely jealous that emeka was doing well in wealthy aspect,60% of what's in that house was bought, designed and sponsored by emeka,even feeding was on Emy's shoulder and now he wants to get married.
She couldn't let that happen while her own son is there,not wealthy and no wife. So she had to poison him to set me up.
I shake my head to the wickedness of this world,Why would you try to kill someone you'll benefit from? Someone that loves you dearly as his own.
Emeka was angry at his father for keeping the truth from him all this years.
I was done packing and I was really happy that we'll be leaving this house of commotion,it was fun though and it was risky.
Imagined if Bisi never came that morning, imagine if Papa actually died,how would my life be? This is a situation where God takes the battle and fight for you.
"Are you done because our flight is on the next one hour,9:00pm" Emeka asked and I nodded.
"Let me get something outside"I tell him and went out.
Chiamanda was trying to take her bath outside and something wonderful struck my mind.
"Get the hell out from here,I want to pee." I tell her and she carried her towel and left without a word.
The water I used in washing the pepper, I carried it from the kitchen and turned it inside her bathing water and smiled. Chiamanda is going to have a hot bath.
I carried the sticks I fetched from the bush today and went straight to disconnect the power supply from the changeover circuit. Now everyone thinks there's no light as darkness filled everywhere.
I hurriedly trace my steps to Ebuka's room in darkness and overheard him arguing with Mama.
"You caused it oo,you better leave me alone. Now everyone thinks I'm the villain" Ebuka mummured and i silently find my way in the dark room.
"Will you keep quiet! Everything i did was for your own good but it turned out to hit us bad,just look for a way and apologize to your brother"
"Tufiakwa!!! So that he will fell big Abi,so that....."I didn't let him finish his statement as I landed the stick his head,I flogged the hell out his head, stomach,legs everywhere.
"Jesus oooo!!! Ah !!biko,Mama what have I done to deserve this beating na, despite all your wickedness? Èwó oo!!" I kept flogging the idiot until he ran out but the stick mistakenly hit mama also
"Ghost ooo,we are sorry Biko...Emeka sorry oo" she ran out screaming and crying.
I felt satisfied and went to change over to bring restore the light. What I saw made me roll on the ground with laughter.
"Pepper oo,hei!! Pls soap oo,pepper has entered my eyes Biko" chiamanda ran and jumped naked all over the compound, as she ran all her br**st jiggled along with her as she stretched her hands like a blind person and scratch all over her body as of it was on fire.
"Werey" I hissed and entered inside the house only to see Emeka panting as if he just came back from a marathon race.
"What is it? Why the panicked face" I asked him touching his head
"Cars, soldiers with gun are lined outside"
His lips trembled and I ran outside the compound to check and truly they were cars.
But this cars,these soldiers,they really look familiar the more I etched closer.
"Ah,I said it" These are my father's men
My father is a retired Nigerian soldier in the Nigerian army and what baffles me is what his men are doing here with this fleet of cars.
"Your father wants to speak to you" The Dark man said and gave me the phone.
" Ayomide,what is it that I'm hearing"
"Daddy ékàlé,what are you hearing"
"Kiní Bisi só fún mí(what did told me)
So you were accused wrongly in that place and you kept quiet!!"My father barked and I could hear my mum's voice also
"Kiló sé é gan,sé O fé Ku ní(what is wrong with you,do you want to die)
I've sent my men to bundle that goat and the so called mother to teach a small lesson so that in their next life they not even know the meaning accused or set up"
"Ah,bàmí émà sé bè..éjó tórí Ilorin(daddy pls don't do like that for God's sake)
please they've gotten their punishment here and I'm sure they've learnt from it" I pleaded with my dad but everything fell on deaf ears.
Ebuka and Mama were dragged like thieves to the soldiers van and everybody came out to witness the tragedy. Joy and faith begged,cried and apologized to me and I promised them that Mama and ebuka will definitely come back.
We reached the city and I urged emeka for us to visit my parents first,he agreed and we reached my parents residence.
Emeka postrated and apologized to my parents for the ill-mannered behaviour mum his treated me while I begged for Ebuka and Mama to be released.
As God will have it, they agreed and set them free.
Mama and Ebuka apologized but I still retained my space.
Emy and I later got married in a grand style and mama did all her best to win my heart again.
