Cont'd.

Ken parked his car outside Queen's apartment with mixed emotions; happy and sad, happy because he finally found his wife and also sad because he didn't know the kind of reaction to expect from her.

In any case, he still wished to get a positive reaction from her.

He knocked gently on the door of the two bedroom apartment.

''Yes'' He heard his wife answer from within and he lept inwardly with Joy.

Finally, he got to hear that lovely voice again!

''Who's there'' she asked.

He didn't know if he should answer or not, he was just at lost on what to do.

He had been careful not to honk when he arrived the apartment.

''Who's there?'' she asked again.

He opened his mouth to talk but he couldn't get any word out, the words seems to be stuck in his throat.

''Queenie, come and check your door, I don't know who's knocking'' Her voice rang from within and he was relieved to an extent that Queen was at home.

Atleast she would be of help, if things got out of hand.

He heard footseps approaching the door and he shut his eyes, expecting the worse

''You?'' he heard Queen say and immediately his eyelids fluttered open.

''Who's there?'' He heard Vicky say and the next moment she was standing before him.

''Ken'' she called out in disbelief, she couldn't believe her eyes, he has lost so much weight and his eyes were like that of someone who hasn't slept for almost a year.

''Vicky'' he called out akwardly.

While in the car, he had rehearsed and re-rehearsed everything that he would say to her but seeing her before him in flesh and body, made his brain go blank.

''What are you doing here?'' Vicky asked frowning.

''I-uh...

''And how did you find me?'' she asked harshly.

''Vick...

''Don't Vicky me, Just get the hell out of here'' she commanded and turned to leave.

''Vicky'' Queen called softly.

''And you too Queen don't call my name, I know you're behind this'' she said and hissed.

Queen opened the door fully and stepped aside to allow Ken in.

''Sweetheart'' He called after his wife who was already walking away.

She spun around and faced him with anger ''Ken, don't let me curse you this morning, don't let me curse you Ken'' she said and eyed him.

He immediately went on his knees ''Sweetheart, I am so sorry, let's just forget all this and move on'' he said with tears already forming in his eyes.

''Ken, don't make me laugh, get out'' she nodded towards the door ''Kath, your sweetheart is somewhere waiting for you'' she replied and left for the Kitchen.

He knelt down confused and disappointed, he didn't know what else to do again.

Luckily, she soon re-appeared holding a plate containing groundnut and sat opposite where he was and began eating it without even looking at him.

Ken looked at Queen and she urged him on with a nod.

He stood up and moved closer to her.

''Sweethe...

''Ken, if those your adulterous hands touch me, I will commit murder'' she warned and shifted away from him.

''I'm so sorry Vicky, I still love you more than anything'' he pleaded with tears streaking down his cheeks.

''I hate you Ken'' She yelled and shot him a muderous look.

''This groundnut just turned sour, all because of one person'' she muttered angrily and hissed.

''Swee...

She used her leg to push him aside and passed without saying a word to him.

When she got away from him she laughed and all eyes turned to her.

''Please, sign those divorce papers, I need to move on with my life'' she said with a smile.

''Move on?'' Ken asked sniffing.

''Yes! move on'' she said with widened eyes and a mock-grin ''Or do you think that someone out there won't admire me because I'm pregnant'' she said and laughed loudly.

At those words, Ken ran up to her and tried to hold her, but she pushed him away and he almost came crashing on the dinning table.

''Enemy of progress sign the divorce papers and let me move forward'' she yelled as she hurried into the kitchen.

''Vicky, Please forgive him'' Queen said to Vicky who was already walking towards the room.

''Queen, If you want to share him with Kath then you can have him'' Vicky replied laughing in mockery.

''Sweetheart, I am sorry'' Ken apologized again even though he knew it was a lost cause as she was already walking away.

''Sorry for yourself, Just know that I will never, ever forgive you, I forgave you once and I won't do it the second time, I'm not God'' she shouted and he heard a loud bang---signalling that she has entered the room and shut the door.

More sweats popped out on his wrinkled brows and he held his breath as he began contemplating suicide--to end it all.

There's no possible way he would stay alive and watch her move on with another man while carrying his baby.

''Noooooooo!'' he screamed and his knees buckled as he crashed to the floor with a loud thud.

K.C couldn't stop smiling when he ended the call.

Dami had called to thank him for the gifts and the way she screamed about the two million naira made his head swell.

''Witch'' he murmured as soon as his phone began ringing again.

''Hello Maryann'' he answered.

''Have you proposed yet?'' she asked and the question threw him off balance.

''Proposed?? To...to who?' he stuttered.

''When you asked me about a suitable gift for a woman, I thought you were about to propose to your imaginary girlfriend'' she replied laughing.

''Maryann, what do you want?''

''Mary and I will return in two weeks''

''And so?''

''So, I need food to be able to survive in that two weeks and obviously I can't get food without money''

He thought as much! Money as usual.

He wondered what she does with all the money.

''Maryann, how much do you need'' he asked sighing.

''Atleast thirty thousand dollars''

''wow, hold it there, that's equivalent to...

''I didn't asked you to convert it for me, I can do the maths myself, Just send the money for me'' she replied rudely and added ''For Mary too''

''No, thanks, ask dad''

''Your mates are already having kids and catering for them and c'mon 30 thousand you are making it sound like a big deal''

''Go and get a husband that will give you such amount'' he taunted.

''I know you will send it to me'' she replied laughing ''And please get a wife as soon as possible, I'm tired of being the only one pestering you'' she replied and ended the call before he got the chance to tell her about Rachel, the smaller version of her.

He tossed the phone aside and laid down, pondering on what she said about his mates having Kids and catering for them.

And the thought of having those little ones around, jumping and turning every thing upside down made him smile.

Not that he hates kids, he only hates marriage.

*****

Nate was in the room with Jane when her mum woke up.

Luckily, he had gone out earlier to freshen up and get food for both of them knowing he won't be able to go home untill he is sure that Jane is alright.

When she saw her mum she smiled for the first time since he walked into the hospital

In a split second, she was already by her mum's side.

''Mum'' she called out.

''My daughter, how are you?'' the woman asked weakly.

''I'm fine mum, I'm glad you're okay'' Jane said, smiling like a baby who just got her favourite candy.

''I'm okay Ada' the woman replied and brushed Jane's hair away from her face with her frail hands.

Nate coughed and she turned to him.

''Good evening ma'' he greeted politely.

The woman gave her daughter a questioning look but Jane smiled and hugged her mum.

''Evening my son, how are you?'' she asked still very weak,

''I'm fine''

''Mum, this is Nate my former boss''

''Current'' he said through gritted teeth.

They had earlier on, talked about the resignation and she told him that her reason for taking up the job in the first place was to help with her mother's hospital bill but now that her mum is sick and dying, the money is no longer needed rather her mum needs her presence more than any other thing.

''My son thanks for coming'' the woman said with a barely audible voice.

''Jane is actually a good friend and what affects her, affects me'' he said and winked at Jane.


He wasn't sure anymore if those were mere lines or if he actually meant them.

''Mum, get up so you can eat'' Jane said, reaching for the flask of food that Princess had earlier brought to the hospital before returning home.

''My daughter, Ada'm, all those things are not necessary, I'm already a dead woman'' The woman replied painfully and Jane held unto her hand like her life deepened on it.

''Mum'' Jane called out, sobbing.

''Adaeze, don't worry about me'' the woman replied and gave her a weak smile and she began crying again while holding unto her mum who was also shedding tears.

Nate leaned on the wall, watching everything and when he couldn't take it anymore, he went over to Jane and pulled her up into a soothing embrace

He held unto her tightly without minding if her mum was watching or not, all he wanted, was for her to feel better.

****

Ken finally entered the house at 8PM, after a long afternoon of roaming the whole street of Abuja, trying to come up with a way out of his present predicament but came up with no idea.

If he had known it would end like this, he wouldn't have cheated.

He looked aroud the house and remembered all the times he would come back home late and meet his lovely wife waiting for him to return.

He checked the time and It was already late for the evening news, not like he was interested in the news but it was already a habit.

He brought out his phone and started scrolling carefully.

Even though it was already too late for the evening news, It's never too late to browse it.

A headline caught his attention and he clicked on it curiously.

''Jes...Kath?'' he screamed looking at the phone screen just to be sure he saw the right thing.
