EPISODE 1

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Never have I fathomed in my little mind that I will be drained of my goal. my eyes have always been fixed on that spot. I always spied on my neighbor television just to be able to listen to news, see beautiful people and aspired to be like them. but everything changed all of a sudden my destiny diverted. my brain was hacked by a stronger device and I was left with only one thing to drive every action -my

 

emotion to corper Bello appeared and became the driver of my emotion because he had the key to my heart…….

 

 

my legs dragged slugging on the fanciful road of abuja, as I dragged my legs to meet the pace of my parents were setting. we have spent three days in Abuja, doing the only thing, searching for corper Bello. I cannot believe this is happening to me. my legs strange and my waist painfull from excess walking. every one I saw was neatly dressed. even though this was my first time moving out from my local village I was not enjoying my self

 

 

“move faster pregnant woman” my father shouted “and stop dragging your self.”

 

 

people who were passing by turned and were looking at us, I bowed my head down out of shame. yes am pregnant for corper Bello, Dad never stop reminding me of it like I can ever forget. how can I forget the news that killed my dreams??and brought shame to my face??

 

 

“you this useless thing when u know u cannot handle the rigors of pregnancy, why did you spread your legs wide like a satellite dish??”

 

 

stung, I held back the tears in my eyes and walked with my head bowed. thought vacated my head as I walked lifelessly behind my parents.

 

 

“Aah Aah nnayi” …my mum murmured bitterly

 

 

“short up woman” my Dad shouted at her.

“looked at you like mother like daughter” he hissed.

“You better find the useless man that impregnated your daughter if not you will both live my house today”. he hissed again.

 

” I Wonder where your waywardness will lead us to. we don’t have s–ts in my family maybe it from ur mother side.”

 

 

Pains sliced through me like a million sliced I have brought shame to my family.

 

 

I have cried a lot during the past few weeks, and all I hope for is that all the pains am feeling now is worth it, tears burned in my eyes as I remembered my dreams. the dreams I had hoped of been a high class doctor. all this dream has been destroyed. i told my self with confidence that corper Bello will accept me and my unborn child. I placed my hands protecting my tommy, trying to close the ear of my baby from hearing the harsh words from his grandfather as my Dad continued to rain insult on me . my anxiety lifts up a little as I remembered the sweet words that came out from his mouth as he made sweet love to me. he has worshipped my body with his hands and his mouth saying words that brought tears to my eyes,it has been the most exhilarating experience of my life. corper Bello loves me he will definatly accept me and the child, I told my self all we need to do now is find his house that we have been searching for the past three days. we discovered that is father is the famous senator Bello, my Dad seemed to reduced his anger toward me

 

 

we arrived the massive gate and paused . I checked the address again, I am sure there was no mistake . this cannot be coper fathers house, can it? the gate alone is bigger than my entire village.

 

 

“is it n’t this the place?” my father asked me also awed as he saw the massive gate.

 

 

I checked the address again my Mum also checked the paper I was holding ,

“I think is the place” I said instantly. kindly hi Nath on 08067268368 to be added to his story room to enjoy better stories from there.

 

he knocked at the gate. I adjusted my small wrapper and waited patiently. the gate opened and a man came out. his size was big and he was looking down on us from head to toe, he turned .

“what do u want” he shouted.

 

 

my Dad glared at him,

“where is your Oga?? we are here to see senator Bello” the guy looked at us again and laughed.

 

“People like you don’t have any business with my Oga. are u sure is the sanator you are looking for?”

 

 

“ogini” my mum intervened. “what is your job is it not to attend to visitors??c’mon open the gate”

 

 

“You cannot go in, the sanator is in a meeting” he said.

 

 

Dad hissed and pushed the guy out of the gate, mum dragged me forcefully inside the house . I was surprised to see the big house and I wondered where the entrance. before we got to the door the guy has already informed them of our coming I saw a woman running down the entrance with the guy looking at us like some little insect.

 

 

“What may I do for you?” she asked.

 

 

“Dad hissed ,get out of my way woman I am here to see senator Bello and his son I don’t need a woman running her mouth here”

 

the woman got angry.

” what do you want with my son and husband he does not mingle with your kind” she said indisgust.

 

 

“Hey, you better shut up your mouth there or else I would shout and the whole world would know just how irresponsible you are. Shameless people” he hissed. “I am here to see the Senator and his good for nothing son, and the earlier you take us to him, thebetter.”
