'Yeah.' She nodded and became serious. 'We were so close that many believed we were twin sisters, I go by the name Hesteria.

'Hesteria …Victoria, that is perfect. ' He said.

"Hi girls, I'm John, what are your Lovely names? "

"Hi am Victoria and she is Hesteria. "

"Wow! Are you twins?"

"Isn't it obvious? "

"Yeah! Yeah! sure. "

She gave an instance. 'Most of everyone we knew thought we were twins. 'Hester smiled. 'We celebrated together, bore our shortcomings together, we supported each other, we raised dust together, together we were unbeatable, we shared, cared and loved each other like we knew it wasn't last for long. 'Hester shook her head.

Ethel felt his chest tightened in pain in fond remembrance of his departed friend. He could say Same for both of them but he wasn't going to let the emotion linger. 'I know your university is more populated with white than black. How were you two able to cope? '

'We represented Africa and Nigeria to the full, who are you to come around us with the aim of making us feel inferior, we sit you and school you. Victoria and I topped the class so it was difficult for our course mate to try it.' She paused momentarily. 'There was a particular day one of my Prof in the course of his lecture said derogatory things about Africa. Victoria and I kept exchanging glances. '

'like what in the world does this guy think he is talking about. '

'Thank you.' She acknowledged his input. 'At a point, Victoria couldn't take it anymore because by then students from other continent were grinning from ear to ear. She raised her and stood. "With all due respect, I object to everything you've said hook, line and sinker. If you will, I like to give give reason to buttress my objection. " He allowed her and by the time she was through, I asked for permission to support her with five reasons. We were applauded, our Prof acknowledged our points, afterwhich, he called us Queen of Africa. Hence, we were popularly addressed as Queen of Africa. '

On and on she went about the times she had shared with her bf.

'I happened to be first that was called after her accident. ' Tears formed in her eyes. 'I guess my name happen to be dominant in everything the rescue team could find after her identity. When the call came I was shocked because we spoke an hour prior to then and we planned on meeting later in the day. I ran to my car and head for the hospital, I couldn't be stopped by the nurses because I used my psychological instinct to find her. God …' She closed her eyes as the memory flashed back and her tears flowed. 'When I set my eyes on her …I just knew she was dead , I just knew I had my greatest friend and confidant for fifteen years. An emptiness engulfed me, I cried, I screamed into instant unconsciousness. Her burial was delayed because of me. It is only God that know how I was able to …' She looked up. 'to watch her being buried. '

'I saw you, I saw your reaction and action. ' Ethel took her hand in his. 'I asked my dad and he told me who you were. Ever since, I've wanted to meet you.'

'No amount of emotions can express the absence of a love one that can never be present like ever before. I felt that with Osagie and I felt same with Victoria. They are irreplaceable. '

'That is because we love them very much. ' He embraced her as tears welled in his eyes. 'I pray God heal our heart.'

THIRTEEN

Oblivious to her, a tear dropped from her eyes as she listened.

'Running around won't help you, instead you will only hurt yourself, it may even destroy you. Beside Oladimeji is Where you belong. ' Douglas said.

'Do you know Where I am? ' Her voice was calm and controlled.

'I don't care about where you are as far as you can trace your Oladimeji and make out with him.'

'Daddy, daddy, daddy …' Hester gave a short laughter. 'How I love you? '

'Come on Hester, I know what is good for you.'

'If that was your good, it means you know nothing about me. Besides, it has never come to my knowledge that a man who forced his daughter into marriage knows best. Dad, you betrayed me so terribly that no matter how hard I try, I can't find the littlest justification for you. I trusted you, loved and respected you and could have done anything for you because I believed you were the best. I never could have believed you could have done that …to me.'

'Honey, listen to me...'

'You listen to me! ' Her voice rose as she interrupted. 'You decisively threw it all to the whirlwind and didn't care. You threw it all out when you told me I'll marry Oladimeji whether I like it or not. The wound has clot though it is leaving a scar.' She exhaled. 'Daddy you don't mean anything to me again and anymore. I have lost people that mean a lot to me but I am alive. I will thrive Mr Onyema, I will thrive and be fine all by myself. Leave me alone! You all should leave me alone. Don't call me again! Forget Hester.' She ended the call.

While the phone was yet in her hand, another call came through. She picked.

'Sweetheart, why …'

'Mum, Since you walked in with your lovely box of wedding cards, my life has not been the same again. I have been wanting to ask you a question. Wasn't it normal labor you had with me? Was my birth more difficult than Agatha's? '

'No Hester.'

'Then Why? Why should joyfully want to get rid of me? Did your parents force you to marry your husband? '

'No but …'

'Then why are you determined to make me a lost child in the heart of a desert. Why for the goodness sake? Why do you want to rid me of my destiny? Why? '

'We are doing what is best you. '

'You just killed my emotion Mum! The president son doesn't deserve your first daughter and favorite child?'

'Listen dear …'

'It doesn't make sense anymore, stay out of my life!I am not desperate for your recommendations. ' She tossed the phone to the head of the bed, got down on her knees and wept.

'Madam, ' The hair stylist beamed. 'The style you chose was made for you. I have not seen anyone it suit so well as it does to you.'

'Thank you.' Hester turned her face to a side to admire her reflection.

The continuous banging of the gate made them all to become alert.

Hester stood and head for the window that has a better view of the gate. She saw three men as the gatekeeper opened the mini gate.They had a dialogue and she tried to read their countenance and lips.

'Oh! it's the president son! I wonder what he want this time. My life! ' The owner of the saloon wailed and sat on the floor.

She had guessed that already , she left the window and set to work. She poured a keg of hair conditional and shampoo on the tiled floor close to the entrance.

All the client and attendant, even the saloon owner had moved to a corner as they watched her browbeaten.

She looked at the window once more, she saw two approaching while the other stayed behind checking out the premises. The gate keeper was shaking his head. She glanced around, switched off and unplugged an extension cable. She cut off the cable and the plug with the knife she had on her.

She stood waiting for them.

Silence prevailed.
