*************************************************************************** EIGHT He looked at Liz on the bed beside him, propped on a pillow, wide awake and deep in thought. She looked five years older than she had been last two months, the corners of her eyes creased with pain lines. He felt bad for her. “Liz,” He placed his hand on her shoulder gently. “I’m sorry I wasn’t there to help you with Darasimi.” “Really?” She asked quietly, facing him. “Is that the most important thing now? You’ve slept outside this house three out of seven nights this week alone” “It’s the business, Liz. At least the house is painted now, you have a new set of furniture. Are you not happy that my business is finally doing fine?” “But you are not there for your children. Our daughter raised her voice at me because I told her to stop seeing that boy.” She said in an emotion laden voice. He drew closer to her. “Then let her see him, Liz.” “Not when he brings her home by 10pm every night!” “I don’t think Paul is that bad.” “You even know his name.” “I do my research.” She looked at him for a moment, then asked, “You sound different, look different and act different lately. What have you been up to, Johnson Jayeola?” “Nothing.” He shrugged. He sensed that Liz was aware he wasn’t telling the truth. Immediately he retreated and shut down. He wasn’t quite ready to engage her in word battle and didn’t want to alert her to the fact that another woman is in the picture. “Get some sleep, woman.” Liz wiped her tear-stained eyes and leaned back on her pillow. “Before, I was angry at our daughter’s new defiant behaviour. Now I’m scared. She’s going astray and there is nothing I can do about it because of your new attitude of defending her against all odds.” “She’s my daughter, Liz. I know what’s best for her.” “I always thought she was ‘our’ daughter.” She said finally. “I’m sorry it came out that way, Darasimi is as much your daughter as she is mine. Besides, we have to start getting used to the fact that her birth mother can come and look for her anytime.” An awkward silence enveloped the room after Otunba’s words. Liz shook her head continuously as the tears flowed freely. ************************************************************************* 5 Likes 3 Shares |

************************************************************************* Otunba sprinted up the stairs to Ella’s office in unrestrained anger. He had driven down to Lagos in a fury. He opened the door of her office without acknowledging the secretary’s greetings. “Oh, look who is here.” Ella said with a smile. “What is this, Ella?” He handed her a printed email, the subject of his unscheduled visit to Lagos this Monday morning. “Sit down, sweetheart.” Ella walked over to him and held his hands, looking at him apologetically. “I thought this was a better way.” “Otunba snatched his hands from hers in anger. “I told you to let me handle this my way. How dare you send an email to my daughter, telling her you are her birth mother? You only forgot to tell her you dumped her two weeks after you brought her into this world.” “I’ve tried meeting her to chat with her several times, but she has always avoided my advances, courtesy of your miserable wife,” She said in anger. “I need her to enjoy my wealth.” “Look, it’s okay. But I’d appreciate it if you allow me handle it from here. Believe me, I've already set the machineries in motion at home.” Otunba said uneasily. Isabella had the key to everything he dreamt of. The good cars, the big houses, the trips abroad. That exotic beauty. The good life. Liz on the other hand was a complete woman; a good wife, a good mother, a good friend and confidant, but satisfied with poverty. He was not. For two months now, his life had witnessed a beautiful turn around and he was determined to keep it that way. If it meant tolerating some of Ella’s excesses, then so be it. Ella smiled seductively. “That’s okay, I trust you.” “And you are looking so sexy today. Hope you are not trying to attract other men.” Ella simply smiled and shrugged her shoulders in response. Otunba looked at the sexy woman who held his hands. ‘If only Liz is half as stunning as you are.’ He thought as he kissed Ella deeply in the mouth. Her lips felt so soft he shuddered with desire. Sometimes, he felt like he was remotely controlled by Ella. Ella cat-walked to the shelves that lined a large part of the walls of her office, pulled out an envelope from one of the top shelves, rummaged through and handed him his travelling passport. “Here, we start our tour of the world from New York City.” *************************************************************************** 5 Likes 4 Shares |
