The mood inside the ward was tense, Clement had his fists clenched as he breadthe in and out to release his anger gas.
Ngozi carried the cute little girl in her hands as she sang to her ears. Clement tried as much as possible to look at Rachel in the eyes, his eyes fell on his baby and he smiled out of reflex, thereby cooling his nerves and his anger dying down. The baby was cute afterall and he admitted it himself, she took the beauty from him and her mother, but the stark resemblance between the baby and the mother was there.
"Sweetheart am sorry." Rachel said for the upteenth time.
Clement moved closer to her bed and sat down beside her sleeping frame.
"Do you realise that what you did was very dangerous?" Clement asked.
"I just wanted to suprise you." She replied.
"What if things go wrong? Do you think I'll ever forgive you?"
"I know things will never go wrong." She replied confidently.
He has so many things he wanted to say, because it still beat his imagination why his wife will enter the labour room without informing him and to say the delivery involved a ceaserian section in the theatre.
"Congratulation darling." He found himself saying and that was the end of it.
Ngozi handed the baby over to him and he said some things to her in his local dialet.
"What is that you are saying." Ngozi asked.
Clement ignored her until he finished whatever he was whispering into the ears of the baby.
"Am explaining to her that I am her daddy and daddy is a policeman." He replied and they all bursted into laughter, Rachel smiling weakly.
Just then the door into the ward opened and Dolapo stolled in carrying a food basket.
"Am I missing something?" She asked as she dropped the food on the nearest bedside table.
She exchanged looks with Rachel and she smiled.
"Congratulations sir." She said to Clement.
"Thank you dear."
Clement spoon fed his wife for a minute before he announced his departure.
"I'll be back in the evening." He assured.
Doctor Rapheal chosed that second to enter the ward. Clement bent down to kiss his wife then he walked towards the door. He could see the jealousy in Rapheal's face. But why should he be jealous? He owned his wife.
++++++++++++++++++++++++++
The euphoria of becoming a father has beclouded Clement's desire to restore peace in the country. He was all smiles as he led Ngozi downstairs, the reason why he was at the hospital remained unaccomplished.
"Clement." Ngozi called.
Clement only turned to face her.
"What will happen to Jay?" She asked.
"We'll come back to question him." He replied.
"Have you forgotten that the earlier the better. We need to get the necessary informations that will be helpful in our investigations. And we've got no time to waste." She explained.
Clement looked at his partner for a while, then a smile ran accross his face.
"Here, you can question him." He said throwing his car keys at her.
He was in no mood to listen to the crazy story of a criminal, while with the recent happening, he couldn't bring himself to asking questions at this time of happiness.
"How do you intend to go back to the office? I mean are you going to take a cab?" She asked.
"I'll drive Rachel's car." He said as he returned to Rachel's ward to pick the car keys.
--------
Ngozi eased herself into the ward where Jay was lying with eyes open and hands and legs cuffed to the bed posts.
"Hey." She said approaching his bed.
He snapped out of his reverie and faced the lady before him.
Immediately She sat down, she went into a deep slumber as she tired reminiscing an event that took place many years ago, probably seventeen.
++++++++++++++++++++++++++
The moments they have been waiting for finally presented itself, its almost a week since they started their barbing business and only two people had patronized them. Today brought the greatest smiles to their faces as the gate into Deoye's residence opened and one of his boys, a well built handsome boy of about twenty-two or twenty three came out dressed in a basketball jersey and a short.
He approached the newest barber shop, the aura of power all over him.
"Abeg I want make my hair." He said as he peeked his head into the shop.
In three minutes, everything was set, the generator running, the clipper working just the way it shoud work.
"Guys, I know sey you be town guys too." The guy began.
The two barbers exchanged looks and they looked at Mike who was lying on a bench like a typical shop owner who allowed his apprentice attend to the customer.
"We be town guys o. We just felt like going lowkey for a while." Mike replied.
The guy smiled.
"Abeg, this hairstyle enter school?" The guy asked.
"Which school be that? It depends on the class the school places itself." Mike asked.
"LASU." He replied.
The three men exchanged looks, LASU again?

FLASHBACK: SEVENTEEN YEARS AGO.
It has become a traditon for a young Ngozi, then a nine year old girl to sleep in her parents room at night. She was the apple of her parent's eyes as well as the apple of God's eye as the children pastor in her church will say then.
"Where is Nwankwo?" Her mother had asked her father.
"Woman, I should ask you that question." The always angry Mazi Obiora replied.
Mazi Obiora was a father that is not to be joked with, a farmer that is not to be taken for granted, a traditional Chief that is not to be overlooked during council meetings with the Igwe unless you want to see the other side of him.
Then the front door creaked open, the time was eleven o'clock in the dead of the night. Mazi Obiora tip toed to the living room in the dark and switched on the lights immediately he got there. Nwankwo his sixteen year old wayward boy froze in fear.
"Nwankwo where are you coming from?" Mazi Obiora asked his son.
"Papa, I went to play football and I decided to play with Samuel before coming home." Nwankwo replied.
"You went to play football? At night? Or has the Igwe erected light stand at the village field?" His father asked.
"No papa." He replied.
"Who is Samuel?"
"You don't know Samuel? My friend, the son of the Reverend Father." He replied.
"Oh! Samuel, that good boy with good characters." Mazi Obi exclaimed.
He knew his son can never be friends with the Samuel of a boy. This same Samuel came to report his son the other day claiming he called him names because of his devot christian life. He knew his son doesn't make friends with boys who cannot play football, and of all the teenagers in the village, Samuel is the only one who doesn't play football. Even the girls can play better than him. The Samuel of a boy is busy preparing for life after secondary school, he has plans of going to the University in the nearby city of Calabar.
"What are you doing in Mama Nkechi's night stand?" Mazi Obi asked shocking his son and at the same time his wife.
Everyone knew Mazi Obi to be a regular patronizer of the bear palour, but he doesn't drink himself to stupour. He visits the place once or twice a week, spending at least one hour in the bear palour, drinking palm wine and pepper soup and other times, bottled beers. Other day, Mazi Omenka will only buy what he wants to buy and come back home to consume them, other chiefs are regular patronizers too.
"That is the route to the parish." Nwankwo replied.
"With Mama Nkechi's daughter, Chidera and this good for nothing son of the palmwine tapper?" His father asked.
He knew his father had caught him red handed. If truly he was caught by his father as at the time he was with Chidera, then he was in a big trouble, because that moment was when he was handling with the girls br.e.a.st and eating her lips, after which the girl sneaked some marijuana for them and they took drags and left.
"My son is sleeping around with girls that has no future other than inherit their mother's brothel. My son is smoking. I will kill you today." Mazi Obiora said removing a cutlass and a horsewhip.
And that was it. That was the encouragement he needed, he has been looking for an opportunity to leave the village in search of greener pastures and as God would have it, someone has promised to take him to Lagos. And now is the time to go to Lagos. In a flash, he sped out of the house that night but never returned.
That was the last of him that Ngozi ever saw as a kid. But the stark resemblance with their father was still there, his broken teeth too. And a big scar below his left eye are enough to recognize him.
BACK TO THE PRESENT
She hugged her brother after so many years and everything took and emotional swing. She cried on his shoulder while he shed tears of regret.
"Baby, you will have to help me." Jay said.
So he still remembered she loved to be called baby as a kid.
"I'll see what I can do." She replied.
If this will be the last favour she'll do for her brother or her family, then she was ready to go to the extreme to get him out of this mess.
END OF CHAPTER EIGHTEEN
Don't you think Ngozi will do something irrational? Maybe setting Jay free.
Leave your thoughts as well as you comments.
