EPISODE 26

'Good afum, mas,' Mma finally produced.

'How are you, Mma?' Cynthia said.

Mma opened her mouth to respond but Vanessa cut her off. 'Oya, you, carry this box inside.'

Mma rolled the box away.

Vanessa didn't stay for too long. She had a glass of water and picked her handbag. Cynthia walked her to the door.
Vanessa hugged her. 'Babe, hope you remember all I told you?'

Cynthia nodded but there was a tinge of hesitation to her eyes.

'Good.' Vanessa left. She knew it'd be tough for her to do but she trusted the conviction she'd presented. She had but little choice.

Some minutes later, Cynthia joined Mma in the kitchen.

'What are you making?'

'Onugbu, Ma.'

'What's that?'

'Onugbu soup.'

Cynthia made a face. She gestured around the items on the surface. 'And you using all these stuffs?'

Mma began to point. 'That one ede, ma.'

Cynthia nodded. 'Cocoyam, I know it.'

'That one okporoko.'

'Stockfish.'

'Yes.'

'You using so many.'

'Oga saying we buying plenty. Four thousand naira.'

'He followed you to the market, I see.'

'Yes, he driving me but I using keke to come back.'

'Ok. What's that?' Cynthia's long, purple-painted nail was pointing at two wrapped pieces.

'Oh, that one is ogiri, ma.'

'O-gi what?'

'O-g-i-r-i.'

'What is it used for?'

'You adding it to the soup and it giving it wonderful scent.'

Mma picked the green piece and started to unwrap it.

Cynthia watched intently.

'This it, ma.' Mma showed the darkish paste to Cynthia.

She covered her nose and ran out of the kitchen.

EPISODE 25

The house felt strangely empty, and uncomfortable.

Madam was away. Stella was nowhere to be found.
Okon rarely came upstairs. The few times he did; to carry food, ask for a cold water or drop something for Oga, he didn't say much.

Strangely, Mma found a part of her missing the fat maid.

She'd concluded when Richard came back, that she was going to tell him to bring Stella back too, just as she'd told him to do Madam.

Before her stern eyes that evening, Richard called Cynthia fifteen times and she did not answer.

'Continuing to calling her, she will answering,' Mma had told him.

Richard shook his head. 'I don't think she will.'

'I knowing she will. If not, she will offing the phone since.'

Richard tilted his chin in consideration. 'You may be right,' he said.

But he did not call Cynthia again. He would go to Ikeja and bring her back himself.

'I will get you a phone tomorrow morning so that anyone can easily reach you. Do you have any make you like?'

'No o. No buying me anything again o.'

'Why?'

'Is it not the first one you buying me that sending me out of the house?'

Richard curved his lips.

'Yes na.'

'Speaking of, where are the clothes?'

Mma hummed and folded herself, old-women style. 'Nnanna, biko, not remembering me that night. I fearing it. I fearing it very much.'

Richard smiled and patted her shoulder.

Mma was in the kitchen when she heard noises at the front door. She thought it was Okon because Richard did not return that early.

She turned off the sink and dried her hands with a towel.

Appearing at the sitting room, straight faces of two women greeted her.

Vanessa and Cynthia.

EPISODE 24

The lady pursuing her was short and ugly. She had the feeling they'd met somewhere before but now she couldn't remember where.

And in the weird manner of dreams, the lady wore a long black gown with hair that stood up in long thread-covered spikes.

She concentrated more on surviving. She ran fast but her pursuer ran like she was on rollers. Ghostly quite. The narrow bush-fringed track seemed endless.

Now the evil woman appeared in her front. She jolted to a halt.

The woman threw her lips open in a wicked laugh. Black-stained teeth flashed at her.

She trembled. The woman held out two hands to strangle her. She knew of nothing else to do. Her body felt too heavy for a fight, as if under a numbing spell. She closed her eyes, surrendering herself to death.

Cynthia came awake with a sudden start. She clutched Jack The Bear to herself and tried to settle her breathing.

Soon a knock landed on the door.

'Who is that?'

'It's me, ma.'

'Ngozi?'

'Yes, ma. Madam asked me to call you. Your friend is around.'

Cynthia struggled out of the bed.

At the sitting room, Vanessa stood up and hugged her.

Cynthia's mother closed her book and put her glasses in the case.
'I'll leave you two.' She walked into the room.

Vanessa didn't ask many questions before she lowered her voice and told her what she had come for-- the final solution to the whole drama.

Cynthia stared while she unzipped her shiny leather bag and brought a small bottle. She held it up for her to see. 'Just a single drop and she'd bleed empty.'

Cynthia shook her head, her face dull with hesitation. 'No, Vanessa, I don't think I can do that.'

'Babe, you will. The only bind tying them together is that pregnancy. It was a huge mistake you made not allowing her to carry on with the abortion in the first place.'

Cynthia shook her head, turning her face away.

Vanessa moved closer to her. 'Babe, listen, sometimes you have to be fierce to get what is yours back. This is no too big a deal. You said it yourself that she was willing to go on with the abortion before.'

'Yes, but I felt she only wanted to please Richard and I.'

'Whatever her reason was is of little purpose, use this and get your man back. No one would even suspect a thing.'

Cynthia stared at the small brown bottle Vanessa held out to her, her eyes clouded with indecision.

EPISODE 23

'No. I not going back to the house.'

Richard glanced up at the rear-view mirror. 'Why?'

'Madam asking me to leave. She seeing me again and I not knowing what she will doing to me.'

Richard parted his lips to say something but didn't, couldn't.

'Richy,' Vanessa called. 'If I may suggest, I don't think it's a good idea taking her back to the house.'

'How?'

'I mean it's not such a good thing to do.'

'What is the better thing?'

'Let her sleep in a hotel near the park tonight so that she'd be on her way early the next morning.'

'What?'

'Yes. Or you can drive to the airport straightaway and get her a ticket.'

'Please, I not entering alo-plane o.' Mma folded her arms below her breasts.

Vanessa looked at her and took her eyes back with vivid unconcern. 'Any of the two options is the better way out.'

'She is not going anywhere.'

'Richard?'

'Yes.'

'You have a fiance.'

'A wife almost.'

'And she just left your house.'

'And she will be back sooner than you think.'

Vanessa's bafflement drove her to silence.

'What you people talking about?' Mma asked.

'Nothing of particular relevance, Mma.' Richard turned into the road that'd take them up the bridge.

He glanced at Vanessa. 'Tell me where to drop you.'

Vanessa's lips became tightly pursed. 'Drop me at the estate gate,' she murmured.

'Ok.'

Vanessa got down at the estate gate but two days after she was back, with a different plan.

seunviju:
