__________________________________________

Two hours had passed since Dave returned from wherever he passed the night and Serena who had as intructed had entered the kitchen, prepared breakfast of yam and fried egg, dished into a plate and according to Dave had dished another into a warmer which she placed on the dinning table.
Sine Dave entered his room, she was yet to see nor hear from him, all she heard was the running water from his bathroom.
"Is everything set?" He asked as he entered the living room.
"That's it over there." Serena muttered pointing to the dinning and without another word, he walked into the dinning area and little had he sat down than his phone started ringing.
"Hey bro, how you dey?" He said.
"Am okay, how about you?" Nate's voice sounded from the other end.
"Am fine.. I called your line but you weren't picking up." Dave said.
"Yes, abeg no vex. I was not in the room when you called. What's up?" Nate replied.
"O boy, something just came up o. You sha know about Dad's recurring......" That was all Serena could hear before Dave picked up the warmer and left the house without touching his food.
While expecting him to return, at least, if he had gone to make his call outside, he should return. The next thing she heard was the sound of someone opening the gate and by the time she got to the window, Dave was driving out of the compound after which he locked the gate and drove off.
Serena slumped back on the chair as hot tears rolled down her cheeks.
"Why am I being treated like an outcast?" She asked herself as she thought about the event of the past weeks. First, it was Nate and Dave conversing in hushed tones, then came Nate detention at the police station where she played a major role in ensuring his release and Nate taking his time to explain the reason behind his arrest to Dave who did little or nothing at securing his bail. Now, Dave, her father and the gatemen spent the night at only God knows where and now that Dave was back, he couldn't even tell her where he spent the night or where the other were, rather, he just bossed her around instructing her to prepare breakfast, and now he could only explain the whole situation to Nathan who is almost a three hours drive away from them in Kwara state.
"Maybe I am not a member of this family." She concluded as she brought out her phone and dialled her mother's number.
The phone rang for the first time, but no one picked up, therefore, she had to retry for the second time and in the middle of the third ring, her mother's voice came on.
"Good morning mum." She said.
"Good morning Serena. How are you?" Her mother's ever sweet voice came on.
"Am fine and you?"
"You don't need to ask me if I am fine or not. You! Serena, you?" Her mother's voice changed immediately such that, one could notice the anger and vernom that came with it.
"Mum." Serena said. More of a question in a bid to confirm if she was on with her mother or not.
"You are speaking with me. Yes. You never bothered to check on me for almost a month. No calls, nothing nothing. The last time we talked was when?" The raised voice returned. "check your call log, that is if you still have my number, then you'll realise that my number has been pushed behind into obscurity. Serena, is that how daughters treat their mothers? Is that how Stephanie treats her own mother?" The spit in her mouth had dried up as she listened to her angry mother.
"For your information, Stephanie visited me yesterday. Yes, she did. She claimed she was coming from Iwo road and she remembered that I am lodged at Womile hotel. You can imagine that? My daughter's friend visited me, but my own daughter is avoiding me." Th voice at the other end was turning shaky.
"I know your father asked you to avoid me like a plague. And even Dave who does like I don't exist now calls me everyday. I don't know what happened to you. Serena, I am disappointed in you. Whatever happened to the mother and daughter love that we once shared?"
Serena breathe in once her mother was done pouring out her heart, something she was grateful for. If it were to be in the case of her father, he won't say a thing, but rather pretend like all was well and when you have offended him about five different times, he would let it all out, and apologising will be like pouring a cup of water on a raging fire.
"Mum, am sorry." Was all Serena could say. "How can I see you? We have a lot to talk about."
"Is everything alright?" Her mother asked.
"Maybe when you answer my question, everything will be fine. I'll be there in an hours time." Serena said and hung up.
As she made to leave the living room, a knock sounded on the gate outside.
Only one person knocks like that, JAKE.


--tbc--

__________________________________________

The people regarded as the backbone of the Thomas family were all present inside Mr Oluwole's ward where he was pouring out his heart or better still put as telling them the actions of they(his family members) that he doesn't like.
"Uncle Patrick, with all due respect, you can't impose things on me, no way. It is my life, my family is at stake, my happiness is at stake, this decision rests on me an me alone. And even if I need to seek advice, I have grown up children who could chip in a thing or two. This has to do with the Thomas family under the leadership of Oluwole, not the Thomas in generality." Oluwole began.
"Wole calm down." Jane said.
"Let him talk to me anyhow. He is now richer than all of us abi? He has millions, he travel to Lagos in airplanes while we go to the park or go in our cars. Leave him, let him talk." Pa Patrick said.
The room fell silent for a moment.
"This is not a matter of who is rich or who has money. I started this family without a fat bank account. I built this financial bouyancy with my family solidly behind me. All thanks to Anita, but regardless of how she helped me during the trying times, I can't sit back and let her kill me. Afterall, she wanted me out of the way. I mean, Uncle, if your wife start to act all up in the house, what would you do? Its a pity you were out of the country while all these was on, I would have loved her to walk you out of the house one day or threaten to call the police or release the dogs like she did to Collins." Wole standing up to his feet. "I took drastic measures because I can't allow any woman, no matter her status or whatever handle the family where I came from anyhow or reduce them to nothingness. I divorced Anita because of her face off with Collins and the phone call threat she put accross to Jane's husband. I sacrificed the unity in my own family because I cherished my extended family. Now the extended family wants me to go back to my vomit. No way!"
"Wole, I'll fight you o. Sit down for once and let us settle this issue." Jane said pushing her elder brother back to the bed.
"There is nothing to settle. This is my family and it is nobody's business. I alone run it, third parties can go to hell." Wole snapped as he removed the drip bag from where it was hunged, held it in his right arm and made for the door.
"What audacity. Can you imagine Wole talking to me like that? Wole, a boy I nutured." Pa Patrick said to his siblings who cared to listen.
"Uncle, two wrongs can never make a right. For the sake of peace, let Anita go. If there is no string attached to your obsession with her 'must return,' then I think we should let bro Wole have his way. Afterall, his family belonged to him, he alone can run it. The best you can do as an elder is advice him to do the right thing and if truly you have adviced him and he claimed he doesn't want to do your biddings, then let him have his way." Collins spoke for the first time in one hour.
"You mean, I should leave Wole?" Patrick asked.
"Yes Uncle." Collins replied.
"Okay, I will let him have his way, but as from this minute, consider the bond between Wole and I broken." With this, Patrick stormed out of the door and his other siblings ran after him pleading.
"Get out of my way." Patrick said pushing Dave in the process which sent the warmer he had in his hand crashing to the ground and the content of it spilling.
"Am sorry Uncle." Dave said prostrating, when he realised the damage the food had done to his Uncle's white shirt.
"Look at this b.astard of a boy." Patrick said vernomously moving closer to Dave who stood his ground.
If there was a word he hated, it was the word B.ASTARD. No matter how hard he tried, he would always loose his temper at the mention of the word.
"Uncle, you shouldn't have called the boy a b.astard. Afterall, he is our son." Jane stepped in once she noticed the defiant look on Dave's face.
"I will call him whatever I deem fit." Patrick replied.
"And I'll hit you in whatever way I deem fit." He muttered and just before Pa Patrick could react, even if he didn't hear him, he still know he had spoken back at him, Jane dragged Dave away from the scene.
"Aunty Jane.... Sorry, Mum, what's going on?" Dave asked as they walked out of the reception.
"Your dad and Uncle just finished having a heated argument. I don't know what Uncle stand to gain in this issue of...." Jane allowed her voice trailed off when she thought of the impact that her words might have on the young man beside him.
As they leaned against one of the cars in the parking lot. Jane asked; "Do you want your parents back together?" She asked.
"No." He said sharply causing Jane to raise her brows.
"Not after what I heard was going on between her and Uncle Olu."
"You knew about it too?" Jane asked, shocked to the marrow.

__________________________________________

After hearing the knock on the gate, Serena had before walking out of the house concluded the person outside the gate to be Jake. Afterall, only four people could visit her, even though two are unlikely. If it were to be Stephanie, she wouldn't bother knocking on the gate, instead, she would put a call accross to her that she was at the gate and other times, she uses text messages. If it were to be Henry, even though the possibility of Henry visiting her is as high as the possibility of the Nigeria's male football team known as the super eagle moving to within the first ten in the popular FIFA ranking. Henry in his usual domineering way of life would have called right from the time he left home asking her to stand outside the gate waiting for him, because he doesn't want to spend more than five seconds outside the gate. If it were to be Taiwo, she wouldn't bother knocking, rather, she knew how to open the gate from outside, everytime suprising the gateman. Jake was the only friend of hers who would either knock on the gate or press the bell and since whoever was at the gate was knocking, and the knock was characterised by the lightness of it, then she couldn't think of someone else.
"Hi." He greeted with a smile.
"Hello." She replied with an askance look, devoid of smile.
"You look so well. Thank God for that." He said. "How are you feeling now?"
"As you rightly said, I look so well. At least, I walked on my own to open the gate for you, that alone is a testimony." She replied.
"Thank God for that."
Serena was suprised with the way Jake mentioned God incessantly like he was paid to say the word. Some words she had never seen Jake say in his life were, church, bible, God and any other thing that has to do with the almighty God. Even though he called himself a christian, something Stephanie calls, 'christian by mouth' but he himself claimed he was a 'christian by heart' because according to him, only God knows who and who is for him and no amount of church going would make God see you as his own, except if you walked with him blamlessly like he commanded Abraham. In other conversations, he claimed that his father, being a very popular business mogul in the city of Ibadan built his empire in two decades without going to church for once and the same path he wanted to thread. Even though Serena had on several occassions told him about grace and mercy which God can bestow on anybody just to test if they'll glorify him with their wealth and position, citing several stories of kings in the bible, but Jake would have none of that.
"Can I come in?" He asked.
"What exactly do you want?" She asked.
"I came to see and check on you." He replied.
"And you have seen me. Now check me out." Serena said without shyness as she turned around for Jake to have a look on her body.
Definitely, Serena has a body that could kill and her body was also capable of resurrecting. And edge she has over Stephanie was in look and body structure. While Steph was more of a long legged ostritch like Jake often joked when they were still friends, Serena was a bit shorter and pretty, while Steph had a bad eye. Her left eye has a defect on it, as she claimed, she had injured herself as a kid. Even though the eyes would disfigure a freshly woken up Stephanie, Serena would always tell her, the eyes made her look beautiful.
Jake bursted into laughter. "Come on stop joking." He said, but Serena still held onto the gate, her body saddled between the gate and the pillar.
"Do I look like I am joking?" Serena asked.
"Sincerly, you looked like one. Come on let me in." He tried to force his way into the compound, but Serena stood her ground.
"Jake, I want you to leave." Serena said with all courage she could muster, all thanks to Taiwo's voice that kept repeating in her mind.
"Why?" He asked with a laugh.
"Jake, I am not joking.... Please leave." She said.
"Like seriously?" This time, he had entered the compound.
"Like this minute." She emphasized.
"Serena. You are joking right?"
"On the other hand, I am not. Now, get out." She was screaming now.
"Serena, calm down for God's sake. You are embarassing me. All your neighbour live in duplexes, they may be watching from upstairs." He said calmly.
"Oh! Oh.... I am embarrassing you?" She asked.
"Of course yes. Whatever happened to the feelings?"
His last word srucked her deep.
She violently pushed him out of the compound as she tried to fight back tears.
"Now get out." He voice broke, but before he could see the tears in her eyes, she ran into the compound and locked the gate.
How she hated making people feel bad, but Jake deserved it. She consoled herself.

__________________________________________

After the short drama that took place at the hospital which warranted Mr Oluwole Thomas walking out on his elder brother, he subsequently had contacted one of his boys in his area of residence who was a cab driver who had came to pick him and had driven him home without anybody noticing. It was after he had reached home successfully that he put a call through to Dave asking him to meet him at home before the end of the hours, and the suprised look on Dave's face had warranted Jane whom he was discussing with at the time asked the reason behind the look and Dave had no other choice than to explain to her.
Therefore, one could imagine the suprised look on Mr Oluwole Thomas face when he saw his elder brother, Patrick and his immediate younger sister, Jane and the last child of the family, Collins, no sooner than Dave entered.
"Uncle, is it true you want to break the family ties?" Wole asked angrily when he had agreed to grant them audience. "Everyone knows my message in the last five years is to ensure that the family remained united. Even our cousins from the maternal side of the family, our sisters that have become members of another family by marriage. But if you want to break family ties because of Anita and I then, believe me, it is not worth it. You were one of the people who stood against our marriage, isn't it. Now you want us back together, why the change? Jane and Collins here sped up the divorce until it materialised, now they are running around to fix an already dissolved marriage, what do you say to that? Mama Londoner in the last family meeting she attended in 1999 openly said, she would no longer have anything to do with Anita. You remembered how Anita embarrased her at Our father's burial? Now she is blackmailing me emotionally, because she thinks the family must maintain the record of no divorce recorded. Why the change?" Wole asked.
"Can you see Wole talking to me like we are mate. Jane, I believe you can see. Collins, you are a witness too. This family is gonna breakdown." Patrick replied.
Collins gave his eldest brother a what-are-you-saying look.
"Uncle, but Bro Wole didn't say anything bad now. Did he? Obviously not. He only said things how they are. If truly there is nothing sinister about our reselve to ensure that Anita returns, then we should give reasons why Anita should return. And as for me, Anita should only return if Wole deemed it right to take her back. I will be no part to coersion or any act of forcefully making someone take a decision against his will." Collins said.
"Even me too. I am with Collins on this." Jane added.
"Is this a kind of gang up? Are you all turning your backs at this stage?" Patrick asked looking from one person to the other.
"Uncle, you just have to let this issue go. You have nothing to gain if Wole decides to take Anita back, and if he decides not to, you still loose nothing. And about the family tradition or belief that you want to uphold. It is good as an elder to want to let his family grow based on what is on ground, but this is the twenty first century, a time when history are been re-written." Collins explained.
Pa Patrick opened his mouth to speak, but no word came out.
"Wole here is about to re-write history, so be it. Its his family, and he has the sole right to it, we are mere third and fourth parties." He concluded.
The door into the living room opened and Barrister Olu walked in.
"Whatever party you belong to is none of my business. I am here to take away my son." He said confidently.
Everyone in attendance except Wole could remember the last time Olu talked about his son, even though he had none. They had persuaded him to say a thing or two about it, but he asked them to ask Anita, because she was the only one who could provide answers.
"What the hell are you talking about?" Collins asked.
"Like you don't know abi?" Olu replied facing Collins.
"Know what?" Jane quickly came in defence of her kid brother.
"Ask Anita." Olu replied stopping in front of Wole, whom he shook hands with before taking a seat beside him.
"When did Olu and Anita began talking on first name basis?" Was the question on Wole's mind as silence enveloped the room like never before.
"What son is Olu talking about? Anita sure has a lot of explaining to do." Was the question on Patrick's mind as he stared at his younger ones.

Wow! I can't believe this story is gradually taking shake. We are gradually nearing the end. It has been a jolly good ride so far. Now, we have come to the REVELATION. A time when everyone would be asked to open their wardrobe, shelf, drawer or whatever safe they have. A time when SECRETS will be out. @Shebarh, I think this is answer the question you threw some days ago.
And to those who want Serena to experience change, did you see anything of sort in the last update? The way she handled Jake, any difference with the old Serena? # @Adeh39, stuff46, the question is for you.

Oya, lets meet at the other side.

"Anita has some explaining to do" hot seat.

Good morning d9ty7. Thanks for this breakfast.

*I'm glad Serena now has a mind of her own*
