Adedoyin's statement was escorted instantly by a momentary awkward silence filled only with stares and glances from both of them towards me.

Seeing the need to do something quickly, I coughed gently and grabbed Adedoyin's hand.

"can I have a word with you?" I asked her but she shot me a skeptical look before she followed my lead as I took her to the rearmost room of the house where I hoped will be possibly out of Chioma's ears.

***

Locking the door of the room behind us, I stood infront of Adedoyin and asked.

"whats she doing here?" I pointed towards the door.

"who? You mean Chioma?" She asked with a scoff.

"yes.....when did she got here?"

"why are you asking me this? She's a guest in this house....and by the way, you don't even know her...so why acting all up against someone you don't know?" She queried with a longing look into my eyes.

"ofcos I know her!" I voiced out, and it wasn't until She gave me a 'you can't be serious' look that I realise that I just shot myself on the foot. But before I could come up with something to cover my lapses, She spoke again.

"tell me how you knew her..." She folded her arms across her chest as she awaited my reply.

I began to think quickly. I remembered Chioma telling me after the drugging and rapìng incident at the hotel back then, when I traced Adedoyin's car to her house and after the sex we had that Adedoyin must not know that we have seen eachother. I can't now possibly tell her that I know Chioma. I know my wife, she won't take it easy with me.

"speak up nau..." Her voice cuts into my thoughts.

"I....erm...I actually don't know her...I...." I stammered.

"then why are you acting strange? As if she's a bad person."

"I just have a bad feeling about her." I stated defiantly.

"my dear..." She called softly. "if there's something you want to tell me about her, now is the right time to do so....this might be your last chance...."

"what do you mean by my last chance?" I asked curiously.

"you see, since two days ago, have been feeling unusually weaker than before..."

"isn't that suppose to be part of the symptoms?" I asked.

"yes it is. But this weakness seems very strange. It was as if the drugs am using is somehow making me weak after taking them...." She continued speaking but my ears were'nt listening again. Her words instantly sent me into deep thinking.

"....you see why I said this might be your last chance to...." She was still saying when my mind suddenly got hold of something.

"wait...which day did that dev....I mean Chioma, which day did she came into this house?" I asked with an eager tone.

"She came to me two days ago with her difficult situation."

"which is?"

"she said her landlord threw her out for failing to pay house rents."

"and you believed her?"

"is there a reason why I shouldn't? Tell me if there is."

"ofcos there is. She might be lying to you for all I care."

"and why would she lie to me? To squeeze money from me?"

"isn't that a good reason why you shouldn't have trusted her talkless of letting her into the house in the first place?" I acted sounding worried.

"don't worry...she is not after my money. Cos if she was, she would have accepted my offer to help her pay her rents but she turned it down." She explained softly.

"ofcos she would turn it down...." I murmured.

"is there something you're not telling me?" She asked with a raised eyebrow.

"not atall...its okay."

"then there shouldn't be any more problem with our guest?"

"if she behaved herself. There shouldn't be." I answered hedgely.

"fine. Lets go." Adedoyin said and approached the door. She opened it and stepped outside and I followed suit after releasing a deep sigh.

My plan was to check inside Adedoyin's room to see if Chioma has changed her drugs or not.

I got to the sitting room and found everybody's absence. I proceeded towards the table whence the remaining Chivita drink was located. I opened its cap and poured the remaining contents into the juice cup and gulped it all down to cool down my nerves a bit.

I headed towards the guest room to check on Chioma. I opened the door and stopped at the entrance. Poking my head inside I saw she was sleeping or pretending to be.

"whatever your plan is, am sure its going to fail. And I swear if anything happens to her, all I will just simply do is give shango your pvssy's username and password so that he won't have a problem finding the type of thunder that will strike you down to pieces....useless girl!!."

I waited for her reply but when I got none, I hissed and closed the door.

I headed straght to my room and I unclothed myself leaving only my boxer on. I sat on the edge of the bed and got hold of my briefcase from beside the bed stand. I opened it and brought out a folder I received from the seminar. I was scanning through it when I began to feel somehow tired. The folder fell from my hands and my attempt to pick it up became increasingly difficult.

It felt as if my body has been paralysed.
'whats happening to me?' I cried out mentally as my lips felt unmovable. My body fell on its own onto the bed. Ironically, in my unconscious state, my mind was still working.

Just then, my door gave a little squeak and Chioma appeared from the doorway with another version of a daffy smile. She approached me gently and leaned over my head. I tried talking but the application of my mouth won't open. It kept on reading 'error.' I then resigned myself to fate as I had no choice than to watch what this devil's distant cousin has planned for my life.

Her face was beaming with boundless level of excitement. An ampoule and a syringe was inside the clutch of her right hand.

"you must remember that kind of feeling quite well don't you?" She scoffed.

I instantly remembered it was the same feeling I felt after she drugged me at the hotel. I then began to wonder how she did it.

"wondering how I drugged you this time?" She cuts into my thoughts. "I spiked your chivita drink dummy!" She laughed wickedly and continued. "I never planned on using that drug twice on you, but you pushed me to do it. One thing I hate most in my life than being a virgin is someone that doesn't do whatever it takes to make it in life. Fate presented a chance to become rich to you on a platter of gold, but because of some stupid beliefs you want to throw it away! Never!" She shouted as I keep on watching. "now, am going to help you grab that opportunity and you will have no choice than to thank me later." She placed the ampoule on the bed and drew some fluids from it into the syringe in her right hand. I flinched in fright as she waved the injection at my face.

If not for my paralysed body, I could have given her the beatings of her life but unfortunately, I can't or couldn't.

"this fluid will only get your d!ck erected. Since thats the only part of your body that you know how to use well, and gladly its the only thing I needed for my plan to work." She located an artery on my left hand and inserted the injection into it. Oddly, I felt no pain. Immediately, I felt my d!ck starting to rise. Soon, it has grown to its full lenght and it was threatening to rip out of my boxer.
Sadly, my konji has betrayed me.

She quickly removed her bumbshorts and climbed over my crotch and sat down on my erected konji.

She started to ride me vigorously and at the same time moaning loudly. "Arrgh! Fork me! Fork me more! Please! Yes!!! DAROUS! Fork me please." She continued shouting and forking me at the same time. Her voice echoing through out the whole house.

I was begining to get worried as she continued her assault on my d!ck. Her noise was becoming more untolerably louder with each fvcking movement she made.

After some moments of this ugly intercourse with her moaning sounds increasing exponentially, then the most unfortunate thing happened.

"what is this!!!" I tried turning my head towards where that voice was coming from but I couldn't. I was able to recognise the voice. Sadly it was Adedoyin's.

Chioma never stopped her assault and the next thing I heard was an anguish scream, let out by Adedoyin, followed instantly with a loud thud.

Chioma then inserted my d!ck back into my boxer and patted me softly on the cheeks with a satisfactory smile.

"victory atlast...you're now a rich man Darous." She declared.

She climbed down on me and after putting on her bumbshorts, she started dragging me down the bed. By the time she sucessfully put me down on the tiled floor, She has worked up a real sweat.

The next thing she did was drag me towards the entrance. I felt my back colide with something and it was after she turned and placed my body face down on it that I realise it was Adedoyin's lifeless body.

I wanted to scream in horror. I wanted to shout. I wanted to cry. But I couldn't. I...was...still paralysed.

"thats me, winning your battle for you....but I have to do this just to have some leverage against you incase you decide to be stingy." She placed my hands on Adedoyin's lifeless neck. Chioma folded it across Adedoyin's neck as if trying to squeeze it. But then, she moved back and brought out her phone. The last thing I saw before falling into oblivion were flashes of light from her phone.

***

I woke up maybe some hours later to the lifeless body of Adedoyin lying motionlessly beside me on the floor. I rose up instantly and tried regaining my senses.

All the memories of what happened last night began to youTUBE in my mind.

My eyes colided with the wall clock. It was 7:15am.

I raced out of the room to find Chioma but she was nowhere to be found. I search for the househelps but after remembering what day it is, it was sunday which means its their off day and they won't resume until evening.

I walked back slowly to my room to face my new warrant.

Sitting down on the edge of the bed with my phone in hand contemplating on who to call, I released this statement.

"am such a terrible idiot..its official, my Adam have eaten the Apple again!"

Messi Christmas to all my fellow Barca faithfuls out there. Its our month to rejoice. I dedicate this special update to you guys. After everything We've been through in this year, from loosing laliga, Ucl and super coppa to our bitter rivals, to the lost of Neymar to P.s.G. I think its been one hell of an hectic year for us. But glory be to God, we ended it on a high note. Forca Barca.

Seeing how confused and dazed I was in my present state, Chioma, in her own twisted intention to abase my equation grabbed my free hand and spoke to me gently and calmly.

"Darous...I know this seemed somehow extreme and also a very cruel act, and I perfectly understand if you decide not to do it....but....but...." She bit her lower lips as she tried coming up with the right words while I continued staring at her in a confused way. "but...come to think of it Darous..." Chy finally continued. "She's already a lost cause...she's not....."

"stop it Chioma..." I warned. "stop talking about her in such manner."

She gave out a wryly smile and called my warning a bluff and she continued.
"stop acting like a pusea.."

I wanted to slap her for that but I refrained myself and she proceeded. "more importantly, stop acting as if you're not the one that will still benefit from all this in the end....this woman will die, whether with or without your contribution." She stated.

"then why can't we just let her spend the rest of her life in peace? Tell me why..." I fired in a low tone.

"believe it or not...we're only doing her a great favour.."

"a favour?" I scoffed. "you've lost your senses and am damn sure not even Uber can lead you back to where it is."

Instead of taking my statement as an insult, she only let out a daffy smile and said. "why don't you listen to what am going to say?" I was silent. "see, try and google on how painful the dying moments of a cancer patient is. And if you truly love her, you'll know that we are only helping to put her out of her mysery. Besides, no be 20percent she write for you inside her Will?, how can you be so sure that she no go change am to five or even nothing? Man, am only going through all this stress because I love you and I'd hate to see you lose at the end of it. Because afterall, it was I that got you into this in the first place."

"how?" I asked in reference to her last statement.

"you forgot who drugged you and let her have sex with you? And later send the pics to that woman you escorted to our hotel?" I nodded my head as it appears she was technically right.

"but...I can't let someone's death ruin my destiny Chy...who knows what the repercussions would be?" I cried.

"trust me nothing bad will happen to you..your destiny can't be ruined." She stated assurely.

"are you sure?" I asked sounding like am giving in to her proposal.

"you see, one thing about destiny is, its not written in some books from the future....the ironical fact is we write it ourselves with everything we do everyday...now is the perfect time to write yours."

Just moments after her statement, her phone rang and she hurriedly picked it. She spoke with the caller and ended the call with a look of emergency.

"I have to go now Darous. Something needs my attention right away...call me when you have done what I so much expected of you." It was on that final note that she gave me a quick peck and walked hurriedly towards the main road whence she boarded a bike and zoomed off.

The person that invented the word, 'this one weak me o' should be given a genius award for that phrase. It was as if he knew I was going to be in a future situation that perfectly suits those words when he was inventing it.

Holding the small bottle in my hands, surveying it and at the same time lost in deep thought. It now became a battle between my conscience and desperation.

The desperate part of me began to tell me how stupid I would be if I let this opportunity pass me by.

'how will you be able to tackle Hushpuppi and the other Gucci guys if you don't have enough money? Eh? Think smart. Or how will you buy the latest G-wagon Benz if you let this opportunity pass? Eh? Think smart dude. No dull yourself.' It had barely ended when my conscience countered back.

'In this life, we are all confronted with trials, but the true measure of a man is how he chooses to react in the face of those trials. This is your own trial Darous, don't fail it.

Know this fact too, assassins were not born. They were made. And its in delicate moments like this that they lost the conscience that makes them human beings.

Take for instance, the case of Jide, you could have decided not to pay his bills and let him die at the hospital and no one would have ever blamed you considering what Jide has made you went through in the past. But because you're not a killer, you helped him out instead, and thanks to you, that your same friend is now living comfortably in Ekiti.

What of Favour? Remember what she did to you? By leaving you stranded in a strange place after she'd stole your wallet? And what did you do when you later saw her at the brothel in your home town? Even though you could have killed her but did you? No! Because you're not a killer. You still went on to help her by giving her the money required for her fake daughters surgery.

What of Beatrice? You didn't kill her. And thats also because the killer instinct isn't in you.
Instead, you should formulate a way to make your wife happy, maybe that might change her mind before she dies.

Lastly Darous, the road to success is a long one. I implore you to stop looking for shortcuts.'
I released a deep breath after my conscience has ended its counselling.

On the way home. I concluded on my mind not to succumb to Chioma's suggestions.

Getting to the entrance of the house, I dialled Chioma's number and it had barely rang twice when she answered it.

"am not interested in aiding or abetting in taking a human life. So its a NOOO!...am not doing it." I declared outrightly and waited for her reply.

"hmmm....am not suprised." She answered back. "cos a foöl will always be a foöl no matter how hard you try to make them wise..have this at the back of your thick canine skull. This isn't over yet...cos by the time am through with the music am composing for you, you'll have no choice than to dance to my tunes." That sounded more like a threat and she ended the call with a hissing sound that got me thinking what her problem really was.

I began to replay all her attitudes and behaviours after our recent meeting in my mind and I could confirm that She must have an agenda of her own. Or why is she taking this more personal than I am?

I drove into the compound and after pulling into the garrage, I made my steps towards the house.

I got inside and met Adedoyin in the sitting room singing and dancing slowly to a gospel song playing from the home theatre.

Forgetting about the latest discoveries I just found out about her, I joined her and we began to dance romantically to the melody of the song. She was filled with a great level of zest as we danced inside the sitting room.

"you look more handsome now." She complimented my looks.

"its not my fault. I tried not to, but it just keeps happening." I said amusingly."

"you sure know how to be sweet when you want to be." She remarked with an effusive tone.

***

Hours run into days and days into weeks. Its now been 5 good weeks since I last saw Chioma and made my stand known to her on the issue and since then I never set my eyes on her until one faithful evening after I just arrived from a 5days business seminar in Abuja.

I got to the sitting room and was shocked to the bone when I saw Chioma sitting beside Adedoyin on the 3 seater sofa in the sitting room. The T.v was on and they seemed to be fully engrossed in the Desperate housewife movie they were watching as both doesn't seem to be aware of my presence in the sitting room.

'whats this devil doing here?' I asked myself as I continued staring motionless from behind their view. 'hope this girl haven't come here to wreck some havoc?....'

"sir...what would you like to take?" The househelp that took my briefcase from me returned to ask me and it was her voice that announced my presence to both of them.

"hey...dear...you're back....hows the seminar?" Adedoyin queried as she got on her feet and met my approach with a warm embrace. My eyes met briefly with Chioma's who was still sitting on the sofa and she gave me a wicked smirk and I instantly knew something is up.

Pulling away from the embrace, Adedoyin sat me down and beckoned the waiting househelp to get me something to eat.

"Darous...meet Chioma, Chioma meet my husband Darous." Adedoyin introduced us to each other and while I was still confused on what to do, Chioma rose up and marched quickly towards my position and offerred me an handshake which I reluctantly reciprocated with a wryly smile.

"you don't know her do you?" Ade asked obviously after seeing the way we were staring awkwardly at eachother.

"no"

"no." Chioma and I chorused in unison.

"okay. Am coming...let me get my husband something to drink." Ade said and wobbled towards the freezer in the kitchen.

After She'd disappeared into the kitchen, I proceeded towards Chioma's seat and sat beside her. I picked the remote controller and increased the volume of the home theatre.

"what are you doing here?" I asked in an audible whisper. "I swear am going to kill you if I smell any danger around her!" I threatened fiercely and she smiled.

"calm down Darous...am only here to help you handle your wife...." She stated mockingly with emphasis on the word 'handle your wife'.

"by handle her you mean end her life?" I asked but Adedoyin's return stopped her from answering.

"I see you guys have started talking." Adedoyin remarked and sat down beside me. She gave me the Chivita fruit juice in her hands and I gulped it down to half and placed the remaining on the table.

"yes ma...Darous was just telling me what to touch and what not to touch if I want to remain in the house." Her tone portrayed nothing but treachery. But unfortunately, I was the only one that took notice of that.

"Darous," Adedoyin called out. "I didn't expect you to be so mean like that. Especially not towards a friendly guest." She declared in an angst tone.

'a friendly guest? Eh!..Just kill me already.' I thought.

Every time I thought I could move, she seemed to cum again, each time harder than the last. It took well over a minute, before she calmed down again and I could resume pumping into her wet tunel.
After she had fully regained her senses, she took control of our movements and rolled me over so she was on top now, with my hands resting on her butt.

Without letting me slip from her body, she began to move again. She sank down maximally on my cork and I could feel the bump of her cervix moving against my konji head as she slowly rocked back and forth.
She rolled her butt with every move, so her cl!t was rubbing against my pubic bone. She started to grunt again and moments later I felt her pusea begin to squeeze again.

As she came violently on my cork for a second time, I could no longer contain myself and I felt my balls contract, I don't really care if she was on birth control or not. I pushed the thought to the back of my mind as the initiative to climax was stronger than the worry, then I began to shoot an enormous load of sex-starved amount of spunk into Chioma’s cùmming pusea.

"arrrghhhh!" She cried out in pure ectasy and colapsed back on the bed gasping for breath.

"ah! That was...that was so erotic..." I said after catching my breath and my dìck now out of her dripping pusea."the last time I had a nice sex like this seems like ages ago.."

Cuddling up to me, Chioma asked with an amusing smile. "really?"

"hun-hmn.."

"how about that break up you plan on doing to me the last time we spoke?"

"hmm! That..! Lets just say thats the idiotic part of me in the past."

"great...lets hope that part of you stays buried in the past...."

"I hope so." I replied before placing a kiss on her lips. She slowly withdraw from the kissing engagement and got up from the bed.

"Darous... am farmished...what can I get to eat?"

Pointing to my d!ck with a smirk, "Chy, just look below my stomach and whatever you see there is all yours.."

"too much of this one...." She grabbed my limp d!ck, "can suck the life comot for person body...I need something to chop..."

"ok...if you insist, then see yourself to the kitchen bae...I want to relax so I can recover my lost senses."

"better recover that quickly...naughty boy...." She headed towards the door way and just after opening the door she looked back and said, "better start thinking of how you won't end up on the losing side of this whole drama with your wife before I come back." She opened the door more wider and disappeared out of sight.

Reaching for my phone, I checked the time and it was past 5pm already. Just to kill time before the food is ready, I opened the Subway turf game and started playing it instead of thinking.

Thirty minutes later, I was already enjoying the high score I was accumulating when Chioma came inside bearing our foods made up of wheat and ugwu soup with meats in a large tray.

"lets eat." She beckoned and I hungrily oblidged.

After the food, Chioma and I devised a plan of how am going to sucessfully accumulate enough money into a private account so that I don't end up in regrets when Adedoyin's existence finally comes to an end or whenever she decides to terminate our marriage.

Then we went on to have 2 more round of rigorous sex before we both fall asleep around 11pm of that day.

The second day was filled with me, visiting Adedoyin's lawyer, which was part of the plan, to make him see reasons as to why he must succumb to our plan.

He was unyielding throughout and threatened to expose me to Adedoyin if I don't stop disturbing him. So I left his office and went home.

I informed Chioma after getting home and she told me to give her sometime to come up with a method we can use to persuade Mr Adeniji, Adedoyin's lawyer to yield to our cause.

***

Several days Later.

Chioma and I continued our sexual relationship behind the screen or whenever my wife is not around.

One night while she was asleep in our master bedroom, I walked inside and checked her drawers and got hold of her latest medical report.

It was there that I saw that She has less than 9months to live as the chronic disease seems to be spreading very fast and at the sametime knocking down her immune systems.

All the symptoms of a dying cancer patient have started developing on her body recently. She seems to be in a race against a river when it comes to sweating and breathing heavily. After seeing all that, I realised I had to act fast or else I might end up with nothing.

I went outside the room and placed a call to Chioma. Luckily, she's got something for me that can help in our persuasive method of Adedoyin's lawyer.

One day, after I'd returned from the office. I was relaxing on the sofa inside the sitting room with a Bailey's bottle on the table infront of me when Adedoyin walked slowly down the steps.

My initial thought was that she was going to the kitchen but you don't know how suprised and shocked I was when she sat down beside me and held my hand in hers.

Truth be told, Adedoyin is now a shadow of her previous-former self. At age 53, she looks older than Buhari's elder brother. Her new eye balls like that of a boris in a pepper grinding machine.

Obviously seeing the shockened expression on my face, Adedoyin let out a soft smile.

"why are you staring as if you're seeing a ghost?" Is that actually coming from her? It had better not be. Cos only one look at the mirror and she would have realised the sacarsm in her statement.

"Darous...." She called out slowly simultaneously fondl!ng my hand. I paused the movie I was watching and decided to listen to whatever crap she wanted to say.

"yes?" I answered.

"hmmm...." She released a deep breath from the prison of her nostrils. "am...sorry." She stuttered with a shaking voice.

"sorry? For what?" Ofcos, I know what she was pleading for. But that was me being a little pain to her sicking arse.

"for absolutely being a b!tch to you... I regret everything I did to you. Am so....sorry. Am sorry for treating you like a trash...am sorry please...forgive me." She ended with an awful tone that nearly break my firewall.

"why now? Why are you telling me this now?" I asked softly but determimed.

She coughed gently and something like a drop of blood flew out. I noticed it but feigned ignorant of it.
"God spoke to me through a pastor last week....he...(coughs) wants me to make some retribution...(coughs again)...and of all the people have wronged, I know you're the one have hurted most..." She paused and stare deeply in my face. "am dying...painfully and slowly, this stupid cancer is eating me up. I have just a few months left in this world. Have spent a lot of money trying to get some cure but all to no avail. I can't avoid what fate has in store for me dear...but I can't die knowing that there's bad blood between us... Darous...my hus...band...please..." She went on her knees and placed her hands on my laps. "please forgive me...please..." Just then a tear rolled down her cheeks and my heart softened towards her instantly. A woman's tear has always been a kryptonite to me. Its always been my weak spot.

I stood up and dragged her up before locking her fingers firmly in mine.

"its okay dear. All is forgiven...have forgiven you from my heart." I ended with a peck on her forehead and she rested her head on my chest.

Hours later, I went outside the house while she was sleeping and placed a call to Chioma to inform her that I can no longer go ahead with our plan. That have forgiven Adedoyin, but all my efforts to make her see reasons with me all proved abortive. I ended the call angrily after she called me a pusea slave and that she will prove to me that Adedoyin is not to be trusted.

Few days after, Adedoyin and I have returned to our romantic self. She now treats me with respect.

Then I received a call from Chioma telling me to meet her that She has something to show me which will change my mind towards Adedoyin.

Reluctantly and hesitantly, I agreed to meet her. So the following day, I met her at a secluded place in town.

She played me a recorded conversation she had with my wife's lawyer. How she managed to get the old and strict man to reveal such a heavy secret remains an absolute mysery to me.

The lawyer revealed some detailed part of Adedoyin's life-after death plan. She had planned that all her properties be sold off and 50percent should be given to her relatives, 30percent to charity and the remaining 20percent for me. I was thinking of how that would be possible since most of the properties technically belonged to me until she played me the second part of their conversation.

I was extremely shocked when I found out that our customary marriage was nothing but a fake one. She has planned everything out connivingly well before asking me for help which means the original copy of all her belongings still belonged in her names.

She'd only used me to lure the police away from taking away her properties.

Chai! This woman is wicked o.
My mouth was left open in disbelief as Chioma returned the phone to her bag.

"Chioma, what can I do?" I cried out and she patted me softly before she brought out a small bottle of drugs from her bag.

"Darous, living is not meant for the weak. If you want to make it, you have to act fast." She paused and looked me closely. "your wife is taking a very important medicine every 8hours. According to the research I made, If she stops taking it for as low as 3 days, she will die the following day." She paused and gave me the container in her hand. "when you get home, replace the one she's using with that fake one...."

"and what happens after that?" I asked with a skeptical look.

"she dies ofcos..and all her properties officially become yours." She stated convincingly.

"hmmm....what about the lawyer? Won't he...."

"don't worry, I already took care of him...all you have to do is that simple task. Can you do it?" She asked with an intimidating look.

"can I do it?" I asked myself.


T.B.C.

Merry Xmas and a Happy new year in Advance to all my famz. Wishing you guys more of it. Amen.


Dedicated to honourable356. We both know why you deserve this.

"Yea! Lets go!!!!...time for a little pay back b!tch!" I screamed out loud reffering the latter part of my statement to Adedoyin as I turned the car around and began heading for home. Chioma was all smiles as she appears to be enjoying herself.

I didn't feel any iota of guilt or of caution as to what I was embarking on.

Come to think of it, what would you have done? Assuming you were in my shoes?

Firstly, Adedoyin and I are now nothing but practical enemies.

Secondly, its been long since I last had sex. Sex with Adedoyin has variably depended on whenever she have time for me which sadly is as low as twice in a month or thrice at most.

Basically have been sex starved and knowing what a sex addict I am, I still managed to remain faithful to Adedoyin during those trying times.

We have three house helps in our big mansion and two of them are pretty ladies and matured as well. I could have taken my chances with them but I decided not to.

Again, as I happens to be the C.E.O of our company, you should know a lot of female staffs are working under me, while noticeably, most of them are eagerly ready to do anything, and I mean ANYTHING to please their handsome boss but I also decided to be professional in that area also.

What have been through in this last few years of my life is what some people went through in two lifetimes but as a staunch son of thunder, I'm still in one piece. Am still me.

Now you see why I had no other choice than to throw caution out the window and agree happily to Chioma's 'lets go fvck ourself' offer. Besides, fortunately for us, my wife is away on one of her cancer treatment trips. So we're practically free to do whatever we wish to before the next two days when Adedoyin will presumably be back.

***

Few Hours Later,

We got home and the first thing I did after entering the house with Chioma ambling closely from behind me was summon the three househelps and gave them a 2days off. They thanked me very happily before taking their leave even though I noticed that Anabell, the less-pretty one wasn't entirely okay with the whole off thing but thats not a concern to me. Abi wetin concern K.G 2 with Biology textbook?

"are you frankly sure your wife won't be coming home anytime soon?" Chioma asked me inside the master bedroom few moments after the househelps have left the house.

Putting down the Goldberg bottle in my hand, I replied, "ofcos, she won't be back till next tomorrow." I answered and slowly began to UnCloth myself.

"not that am scared o, or anything like that, but just to be on the safer side I think you...."

"I should confirm from her?" I cut in and completed her statement for her.

"exactly....you never can predict that woman."

"hmm...okay." I picked my phone and placed a call to Adedoyin's foreign number. She picked after the second trial.
"hello....love..." I tried sounding more romantic.

"love?...what weed are you smoking under that hot sun in Nigeria Darous?" She asked with a tone of sarcasm.

"what makes you say that l..o.."

"don't flatter me please!" She snapped angrily from the other end. "just tell me why you are calling me..."

It took me 5secs to get my voice back to respond. "erm...e..rm, just want to ask when you'll be back...thats all..."

"I don't know...is that why you're calling me at this hour?" She asked with more furiousity in her voice.

"yes, but when will you be back?"

"are your eardrums faulty? Or which part of I-don't-know you don't understand?"

"but thats not an answer to my question na?"

"am afraid thats the only one you going to get from me...dear dummy." I was silent for some minutes contemplating on whether to end the call or not until her voice sounded again. "do me a favour please..."

"whats that?" I asked with a curious laden voice.

"am kind of pretty busy here. Press the red button please. That shouldn't be hard for you right?"

Hearing that, I just dropped the phone on the alluminium table medial the room and walked over to Chioma who was busy with a wine cup in her hand.

"what'd she say?" She asked.

"she said she doesn't know. But nothing to worry about." I said with a boast of confidence and smile.

"you sure? Cos I'd hate to get in the cross-fire of your sick married life."

"I thought you asking me to bring you here meant you were willing to take the risks?"

"well lets just hope I don't end up regretting it....and...."

Quickly silencing her with my index finger on her lips, "sshhh....lets get started...my d!ck is throbbing bad right now..."

"oh! poor you..." She replied with a smile and drew me in for an embrace. And it was then that I noticed that the screen of my phone was on. Reaching for it and after checking it, I discovered that the call to Adedoyin was still ongoing.

"argh! Sh!t!....am fvcked!"

"no...that should be my line.....am the one that needs to be bleeped." Chioma stated obviously ignorant of whats happening.

"hello....hello...are you there?" I queried into the phone but got no reply.

"who's that?" Chioma asked as I continue talking to the phone but still got no reply. After several attempts and futility was the end result, I ended the call and released a deep sigh hoping Adedoyin hadn't listened on my conversation with Chioma who was waiting patiently for me to come and attend to her.

"its nothing dear..." I dropped the phone on the glass table medial the room and approached Chioma slowly.

"are you sure?"

Placing her palms on my abs, I kissed her and replied. "trust me..." She smiled and reciprocated the kissing gesture.

"Darous....you know we need to work up a plan." She suddenly asked after the kissing has ended.

"what plan? Are we robbing a bank?" I asked amusingly and tried replacing my lips on hers but she refused.

"this is a serious issue Darous. Am not joking." She stated assertively with a frown look.

"how serious.?" I asked still with a nonchallant behaviour as I was still in the mood for sex.

"very serious."

"really?"

"yes. Or how long do you think it will take her to get tired of your useless self and send you out? What do you think she's planning for you out there each time she spent away from you?"

"now you're talking like my mother."

"and thats because am after your wellbeing..." Her tone portrayed nothing but sincerity and that brought out a little seriousness in me.

Holding her face by the cheeks I said, "Chy, wait...by 'she' you mean Adedoyin?" That sounded more of a question than statement.

With a scoff, she said, "no...my grandma...its like you're not even taking this seriously like I am. Forget it." She ended with a tone of disappointment and shifted away from my hold.

A momentary silence followed and I realised by her behaviour that have offended her. So I marched to her and held up her gaze.

"how do you expect me to take anything seriously when am here staring at a nak3d priceless jewel? Eh?"

With a seething look she said, "so you can't think straight at the sight of sex?" She asked with a smirk.

"exactly!" I lamented in a randy tone. "anything beautiful like this body of yours will always win me over anytime anyday." I flattered and her cheeks turned red as she blushed away from my gaze.

"so what do we do now?" She asked faintly.

"Chy, trust me. I appreciate your concern. But until I satisfy my d!ck's desires, nothing good can flow into my brain." Rubbing my palms against her laps I continued. "or does that makes me a bad person?"

"no.." She shook her head sideways. "it just makes you the most sex-controlled idiot I've ever seen." She hitted my crotch playfully and wrapped her fingers around my d!ck with an inviting look.

It was time for me and Chioma to take the center stage. I lifted her delicate frame in my arms and carried her up from the bed. I laid her down inside the middle of the giant bed and returned to kissing her. She moaned as I let my tongue swerve around her tongue, before my mouth swallowed it up and gently sucked on it.

My hand went down her tight stomach and slid underneath her pants where I encountered her nak3d pusea. She was dripping wet and so incredibly soft and smooth. My finger slid easily inside, making her moan again.

"oh! yea...thats it baby..." She was very tight, much tighter than the first time I forked her.

I took off my singlet and kicked away my pants and boxers. Then I removed Chioma’s bra and pant, so we were both completely nak3d in the room.

Goddamn it, Chioma is really a sexy goddess.
She had a beautiful little pusea that my eyes could feast on for days without bulging and a cute round butt that begged to be touched. But the most beautiful of it all was her sweet smile and her inviting eyes.

"enough of the romantic stare Darous...I need your d!ck inside me like 20mins ago." She laid back on the bed and spread her legs wide before beckoning me to take my place between them. I wasn't ready to let her repeat her statements so I took my konji and rubbed its head between her pusea lips, covering it with her slippery juices.

Then I eagerly placed it at her tight entrance.

“You sure you want to do this Chy?” I asked and she nodded.

“Fvck me!!, Darous....don't make me wait any longer!” She cried into my ears with a great level of zest.

I took my cork and pushed in. Chioma squeaked, as my 8 inches konji brutally entered her. I pushed down until all of my card was inside her P.O.S. I held her close and gave her body time to get used to the size of my d!ck.

“oh! Yea..that feels good..." She said and I lovingly kissed her pouty red lips and slowly began to retract my d!ck. She held me tight; as if she was afraid I might pull out. She looked at me with an intense look of longing. She whimpered again when I pushed back in again and again. Her whimpers became moans and after a while, her pelvis began to move against my pushes. Bit by bit I started to increase the force in every attack I launched against her pusea, pushing deeper, harder and pushing faster. Soon I was forking her without refraining anymore.

The fear of giving way for trouble to sneak its way back into my life if I turned Adedoyin's enticing offers down made me succumbed hesitantly to the latter part of her absurd options.

As she demanded, I handed over my business to Jide, and he and his new family relocated to Ekiti thereafter. By doing so, I've giving Jide the opportunity of a lifetime to become financially stable. Although part of the agreement was that, 30percent of every income will always go to my mother's account and I was glad he was okay with it.

Adedoyin waited two months until my legs were better-ly healed and back to my handsome self before she started arranging for our court wedding.

She had to hire two women and two men whom are elderly people for us to stand as our respective parents on that day. No best man or best lady, only those four strangers were present on that day.

"by the authority invested in me by the laws of the federal republic of Nigeria, I, Comrade Osama Bin Laden thereby pronounce you as husband and wife....you may kiss your mom...sorry your wife." Comrade Osama stated with a wryly smile and a high tone of 'am going to bomb you after this'.

Drinks and foods were served instantly to everyone present, even though one of the court officials couldn't help but wonder what kind of stupid brain I have, to have made me accept to marry someone old enough to be my mother. Realistically, it was a money motivated move on my part.

"where do you want us to have our honey moon?" Adedoyin asked me when we were about to sleep on the night of our wedding. She'd just changed to her night dress.

"maybe inside a poultry where no sensible animal will be able to judge my under duress decision to marry you." I lashed out at her trying to feing anger so she doesn't see my decision to marry her as a money motivated one. Thats why have been acting coldly towards her since the day I agreed to marry her.

"whats wrong with you?" Adedoyin asked turning abruptly to face me on the giant bed in her room.

"this lie of a union is whats wrong with me...you treating me like a kid and all that. You want me to be happy? Just return me to how I was before you met me." I stated with the hope that she doesn't decide to consider what have just said at all.

She was emotionally silent for some seconds. She was obviously hurt by what I said and I was starting to regret my actions. After what seems like she wasn't going to say anything atall, she eventually did.

"You haven't changed a bit and you never will. Its about time that I learned that and stopped letting you disappoint me. You this ungrateful bastärd!"

"you are the bastärd not...." A heavy slap has landed on my face before I could finish the derogatory statement I was making.

I yelped out loud and began rubbing it gently as I began to regret ever pushing her to the extreme.

"you fool!" She thundered. "you should be thanking me for giving you an opportunity to become someone in life." She placed her palms on her chest then continued. "oh gawd, why have you bring a fool like this to my life after you've taken my happiness away from me....why!" she cried out painfully.

Before I could contemplate on whether to beg her or not, she lifted my chin up so that our eyes were now at a versus level on eachother and continued."you fool, you realise I could have choosen somebody else, someone who doesn't have to keep on reminding me everyday of what a failure my existence on earth have been? Someone that would have gladly appreciated everything am doing for him...someone I could tell 'jump' and will ask 'how high?' not an ingrate and ungrateful idiot like you. But I still choose you because I regret ever forcing you to take an oath with me which nearly ruined both our lives?..." She dropped my chin but still maintained the level of our gazes.

"but what have I gotten as a reward from you? Nothing but loathing and pure hatred....and thats how you embarrased me infront of everybody at the eatery yesterday when the waitress asked you for what you would liked to be served and you childishly replied by telling her to get you fried frogs?....tell me whats your problem? What exactly have I done to deserve this?" She asked with a tone of exasperation.

"hmmm...am so..."

"one more word from you and I swear I will spend the rest of my life making sure you suffer!..." She warned.

"am just...."

"are you deaf?..." She roared and her voice sent the whole room echoing with her strong voice. I bowed out in fear and relaxed back on the bed.

"desperate times they say calls for desperate measures...and starting from tomorrow, am going to start showing you that I can also get the best of what you think I want from you from elsewhere." With that, she draw the duvet over her body, backing me, she slept off.

True to her words, the seal of ownership of all her belongings got a new name which is happily mine and that made me technically a millionaire but I know she's making other plans with her lawyer.
As I oftenly see them secretly discussing inside the big living room and will always changed the topic whenever they see me approaching them.

Next thing I never expected her to do was when she started bringing random guys to the house, she fvcks them in the guest room and the next day again she will come home with another dude. The only time a new guy doesn't come to the house is when she's on her cancer treatment trip.

She continued this wayward life until one day I was forced to confront her and the result was ugly. She went on to threaten to strip me of everything I think I have if I ever confront her again and since then our lives together as husband and wife has been filled with chaos and mayhem.

I was really getting tired of the whole situation until one day when I crossed path with an old friend. Chioma, the lightskinned b!tch that Adedoyin sent to drug me at the Get-together party I attended with Beatrice.

I was inside the Lobot Center at Oke-ilewo to buy a Hp-Laptop on that very day. After collecting the receipt of the product from the cashier adjacent the entrance, I was walking briskly towards the exit door with the new Laptop in my hand when someone suddenly bumped into me from behind. Turning around with the intention to swear at the person, but I was dumbstruck after seeing the her.

"Chi....oma....Chy...." I called out slowly as we continued staring at eachother.

After finding her voice, She cried out slowly. "Dar....ous, Is this really you?" Chioma, without minding the scene we were creating, suddenly jumped over my body and I had to stagger backwards to gain a foothold before I wrapped my arms around her and lowered my head on her shoulder.

Putting her down secs later, I dragged her gently towards my new Blue Lexus 2018 car parked outside.

Stopping beside the car under the scotching sun, I gave her a quick head-to toe look. Chioma hasn't changed a bit. Claded in a blue tank top and a pencil mochino jean trouser. Her hair pulled into a long ponytail and a pair of black stiletto shoes. Her hand bag hung loosely near her right elbow joints.

"Darous....I never thought I will ever see you again in this world."

"Chy, the feeling is mutual o."

"where on earth have you been?" She asked still with a smiling face.

"lets just say have been everywhere fate wants me to be Chy....what of you? How has life been treating you?" I unlocked the car with its stored application on my s7 phone and opened the door. Chioma doesn't seem to be able stop smiling and giggling as she continued staring at my Gucci-items claded structure.

"have been well and fine o. I can't ask you the same because everything am seeing right now says you've surely been on the good side of life."

After hearing that, I leaned closer to her and in a whisper I said, "Chy, seeing can be deceiving o..have been through hell."

With widened eyes and sceptical looks, She said,"if this car and everything you have are results of what you mean by being in hell, Darous please show me the way to this kind of hell o. Lets spend eternity in hell o..." She then bursted into laughter. I was just staring at her as if to give her a heavy knock on the head for her ignorance. But I just beckoned her to get inside the car and I seethedly drove us out of the Lobot premises and headed towards the McDonalds eatery nearby.

20minutes later, we've both settled down in a corner inside the exortic resturant. We've made our orders and was gisting while waiting for the waitress to bring our orders.

"really?" She asked with shockened expression.

"now. You understand what I mean't by am going through HELL.." I ended with emphasis on hell after I'd finished telling Chioma about all have been through up to my present situation with Adedoyin.

The waitress returned with our meatpies and chilled chivita drinks.

"lets eat before it gets cold." I gestured, and picked a warm meat pie, took a bite, chewed and swallowed it, took a sip from the juice and returned my attention to Chioma who was also busy with the eatery works in her hands.

"seriously this is a dilema, but what do you plan on doing?" She asked as soon as we finished eating the pies.

"plan? I don't know what to do o...this is far out of my jurisdiction." I stated with a tone of submission.

She let out a fizzle sound and rested her elbows on the table.
"Darous, this is an opportunity for you to become rich. You have everything in your care and what I don't understand is why you are dulling yourself as if you be mumu? Wise up before you lose everything!"

I pondered on her words for some minutes and let out a happy smile after I'd gotten the subtle meanings in her statement.

"you this girl is always full of wisdom o. You are such a darling" I appreciated and we both exited the eatery after I'd paid.

"you said your madam no dey around." She asked inside the car and I nodded. "then lets go fvck ourselves to the glory of this reunion in that very house she's been messing with."

"yea! Lets go!!"

I can't help but feel pity for this beautiful woman called Adedoyin because of her predicaments. Its not in my power to question how she got herself in such a messy situation but something needs to be done.

There was total silence for what seemed like eternity as both of us seemed to be totally lost in the trip of thoughts before I eventually broke the deadlock.

"but how does this...your....situation calls the need for me to cancel my business? That I really don't understand."
I managed to move my waist in an attempt to sit upright against the head board. I was sucessful in the task but I let out a little groan from its after effect.

"easy there..."

"am fine...am fine..please answer me."

She grabbed my two hands and interlocked it in hers. She kept a long gaze at my eyes and it was then that I saw in her eyes the saddness she's been nursing all along.

"you know" Her voice interrupted my thoughts while her eyes were still digging holes in mine. "have actually been thinking alot since the day I brought you back into my house."

"okay."

"and I haven't been able to arrive at a sensible solution."

"hmmm...can't blame you for that though. After everything you're going through, you can't necessarily blame your brain for failing to give you a solution."

"is that a complement or an insult?" She asked trying to feign annoyance.

Tickling her palms, I replied. "not even the devil himself will try insulting you on this issue....." Then placing a kiss on the back of her palm I said, "its a complimentary remarks my lady, not an insult."

"hmm...thats sweet of you...so what do you think I can do?"

"you are not asking me that, are you?" I asked a bit suprised.

"ofcos am asking you. Two good heads are better than one you know..."

'not if one of them has cancer.' I thought.

"and whats the benefit of this conversation if I don't ask for your help?" She finally withdraw her hands from mine and reclined against her chair but her eyes remained in contact with my face. I instantly felt the need to help her out at that moment of brief silence.

This is the same woman that kickstarted my troubles.
How am I now feeling pity for her? Why can't I just leave karma to finish its job on her life and that would have been a sweet revenge....Why? But I can't... I may not be a noble man, but cruelity isn't in me. I don't have what it takes to be able to stand and watch someone suffer. Thats not who I am. I felt like a total jerk after remembering how have mistreated her in the past when all she ever did to me was extend a loving hand to me, even though that hand might seem desperate at times, but nonetheless, I still feel deeply sorry for her and for that, I have to help her in whichever possible way I can.

"hmmm...you're right. But you have to give me some hours to think it through. Who knows, I maybe able to come up with something."

"good...let me leave you to rest..." She stood up and walked out through the exit after packing the papers on the stool.

I grabbed the remaining drinks and gulped it down. I then returned my back on the bed as I entered the stream of thoughts.

FEW HOURS LATER.
3hours past dinner.

Adedoyin has just finished fvcking me like crazy some minutes ago and she had went into the bathroom to have a shower. The ceiling fan was doing its job of making sure there's no room for heat in the room.

Now dressed in a white pair of pyjamas, Adedoyin has came back to my room to learn what have come up with concerning the situation at hand and thankfully an idea has already found its way into my brain by then.

"tell me you have something for me."

"sure...I have been able to come up with something."

"wow!..thats cool....so lets hear it."

"humm-humm." Clearing my throat. "Though I can't cure your cancer, but I think have found a way that can help stop the government from going after the rest of your properties."

With a questioning scoff, She said, "really? Are you sure? Cos have think it through and wasn't able to find anything."

"fortunately there's only one thing you can try..."

"and whats that?"

"the government can't collect what doesn't belong to you right?"

"ofcos they can't...."

"now come to think of it, assuming, you transfer your properties to someone close to you. Lets say your child, there will be a change in the name of ownership and since the documents of your belongings will now be in the name of another person, I think the government will have no choice than to back off."

"hmmmmmmm....that sounds like a brilliant idea...wow! Darous...its really brilliant....I always know their's a beautiful brain behind that handsome face.."

"ahahah...its a normal thing nau...but thanks anyway."

"am really impressed. Even my Broker have told me to resign to fate....you did what my Broker couldn't do..."

"can't blame a broker for being broke of thoughts..."

"I know you'll say that. But there's a little problem that might foil that brilliant plan."

"what? whats that.??" I asked dazely.
"the problem is, I don't have any child. Not even one." She dropped that with a strained voice and placed her legs on the stool before her.

"what!" Feeling shocked in utter disbelief. "what of that spoit kid I saw in your car some months ago?"

"what kid..?"

"the kid that you left inside your car when you were at the hospital some months ago...who is he?"

"you mean Dave?" She countered with another question.

"I don't know his name, but yes...Dave...isn't he suppose to be your child?"

"no, he isn't."

'oh gawd of thunder!'.

I let out an exasperated sigh.

"then how's he related to you. Since you claiming now that he is not your son."

"Darous, have said it, am not Dave's mother. He belongs to my niece. She gave birth to him when she was still in secondary school and since then have taken responsibility of him." She explained.

"hmmm....where's the mother? Is she dead?" I asked out of concern for the spoilt brät.

"no she isn't....wait...I think you have even met her before...."

"who? Dave's mother? I don't think so."

"yes you have. The girl I introduced to you on the very first day I brought you to my house after bailing you out of the police station? Remember?"

Sending my brain back to memory lane. I instantly remembered the lady I saw in her house on that day.

"Lovelyn?" I questioned with a questioning look. "you mean Lovelyn is Dave's mother?"

"yes..." She answered and stared at me for some seconds obviously studying my reaction to her affirmation. "why are you so suprised or let me say shocked? Anything wrong?"

"nope...not atall..." I answered and hoped she draws curtain on that aspect. No wonder Lovelyn was acting strange on that day. Eheh...na wa o..so Lovelyn is a mother? And yet she let me fvck her? Well, that one no concern me o.

".....why its not going to work. so what do you say Darous....Darous!" Adedoyin's voice cuts me off my thoughts.

"yes yes....were you saying something?."

"have actually said a lot of things but as it appears, your mind is no longer in this room. What were you thinking? Tell me..."

"huh? its nothing jare...just...just remniscing about time past."

"okay...so what do you say we do now?..."

I was about to say 'I don't know' when I remembered something.
"wait...what about those children you said are yours and are in U.K? what happened to them?"

"when did I told you that?" She questioned hedgely.

"at your office...on the very first day I met you."

"well, apparently, I lied. Please enough digging into my private past. Lets talk on finding an alternative to the child vacancy in your plan." She stated with a tone of finality and I had no choice than to acquiesce to her demands.
"so what alternative do you have in mind?"

"none for now." I answered feeling tired after that rigorous sex she gave me and the latest discoveries about her private life.

"Darous..." She called out softly. "please help me out...I don't want to die without trying all my best to leave something concrete behind for my families."

"can't those slouchy doctors find a cure to your cancer at all? How can they just accept that you're going to die and its funny how you're also okay with it."

"my dear...believe me...have contacted both the best doctors in this country and overseas. They all gave me the same timeline. I can't run away from it. And all this that am trying to do, all this wealth that am trying to fight the government so they don't take away from me and so I can leave them behind for my families are signs of me accepting my fate."

"you going to make me cry Ade..."

"thats not what I intend to do. My intention is to make you help me fufil this wish. Darous, join me on this fight. Day in day out, my enemies are giving the police some evidence against me. Thats why am trying to act fast. Please understand my plight.."

I can only take a deep sigh at the end of her epistle.

"but the only plan available is now ruined because of...you..know...no child...what are we going to use as a replacement for that? Any other members of your family? Anyone you trust?"

"thats the problem. I don't trust any of them."

"but you trust me? A stranger?"

"yes I do cos I know you. The devil you know is better than an angel you don't know."

"hmmm....thats wisdomatically great."

"I think you are the perfect solution to this problem." She stated convincingly and dropped down her legs from the stool.

"me? How?"

"in two ways. Either you let me adopt you and transfer the documents of ownership to you and when am gone, my lawyer will carry out my Will demands through you or you...." She paused to study my reaction which was anxious curiousity before she continued.
"or you agree to be my husband for the remaining days I have left."

"you've got to be kidding me...hows that possible?" I queried with a tone of confusion.

"don't tell me you going to turn down my offer and return to being useless."

"what if I say no?"

"then you'll returned to being cripple. You don't want to dare me!" She threatened.



T.B.C

Its getting to the end of the year and apparently its also the time for 'we' Mc's to make some money. Have been busy with my part time Mc job and that had thereby obviously affected the rate at which I update. But out of that tight scheduled, have created time to drop one or two updates.

Thanks for your usual understanding. The story is fast approaching the END.
Love you all.

After the bombshell news nurse Shola dropped, her statements sank into my mind in a heavy way that triggered the stream of tears in my eyes.

After her nonchallant utterances, I experimented on her words and I let out a frightened breath as I couldn't feel my legs up to the thigh region atall. It was plainly numb. I was staring at it, but the mystery is I couldn't feel it atall. Then I cried out.

"sorry." Nurse Shola tried pacifying me but the damage has already been done for me to care about that.

I was whimpering and sobbing like that for some minutes. I tried moving my legs but the Lukaku pain in my waist region wouldn't give way for my United legs to beat the City of pain on my waist.

I relaxed on the bed still sobbing until the nurse tapped me on the laps.

"what is it?" I snapped at her.

"am sorry I shouldn't have told you that in such a wicked way..." She said with a look that portrayed sincerity.

"what does it matter to you? You've said it anyway."

"I know, but...."

"but? even if you don't, sooner or later, am still going to find out myself anyway...just let me be please!!" I ended with the wave of the hand in an attempt to dismiss her but she reciprocated the gesture by also dismissing my intent.

"you have to take your injections now if atall, you hope to walk again."

"you mean there's hope for this legs?" I asked with a glint of hope.

"what I mean is, if you let us do our job, then you might stand a good chance." She continue staring deep into my face obviously waiting for my reply. It was that moment that I actually got the chance to realise how pretty she is. Her big brest were just grabbing inches away from me and my konji have started doing somehow.
If not because of my present predicament, I would have started formulating a way to get into her pants since its been too long that I last had sex with a lady. For the past ten months, my left hand has been my pvssy. But in my situation, sex was the last thing on my mind as tears of fear about what the future holds for me began teaming up in my eyes.

"are you ready?" Her voice snapped me out of my brothel of thoughts.

"hun-hmnn." I murmured with a teary eyes.

"eeyah....this is not a crying matter Darous...everything will be alright." The third nurse spoke for the first time.
"just take your medications and we can move on to the next step. You'll be fine."

"I have to be." I voiced out and beckoned nurse Shola to proceed with the treatments.

***

FOUR WEEKS LATER.

"How are you feeling now?" Adedoyin asked me after taking her seat beside my bed where I'd been since I returned from U.C.H whence I'd undergo a succesful surgery on my legs four days ago.

Adedoyin just returned 20mins ago from a 3days business trip in onitsha.

"medically or emotionally.?" I asked teasingly.

"hmmm....both..." Pointing at my bandage covered legs, she asked, "how are your legs feeling now?"

"ah, my legs are getting better now o. Thanks to you."

"don't thank me jare...here, I bought this for you." She gave me a chilled, bottled energy drink. I collected it and drank a few quantity before dropping the rest on the stool.

"Hows your trip?" I asked.

"business is good so far...here's your phone." She said handing me my Samsung7 and I quickly stretched my hand forth to receive it. "the screen was damaged, but I've helped you repaired it." She said after noting how I was staring at the phone which now seemed somehow strange to me. "I told you we are going to discuss a very impotant issue when I returned. Remember?"

"please can I make a call now?" I requested instead of replying her question. She gave me a go ahead shrug and I quickly switched on the phone and after waiting for it to finish its booting, I dialed Jide's number. He picked after the 3rd ring.

"guy, wetin happen na? I don dey call your number for the past post-end of the world years na...Where you dey idiot boy?"

"wo...me self no understand o...how's Blessing?" I asked with utmost curiosity as I tried avoiding Adedoyin's gaze.

"Blessing is fine now. Na her place ah dey go ganself....what of you, wetin happen to you?" I could sense sincerity in his statement but I wasn't ready to give him any answer as Adedoyin was still staring at me. So I ended the call, happy that Blessing is fine afterall.

Seconds later, I pulled a call through to my guys that were handling my Betting business in Ekiti to inquire how things were going. They gave me a satisfactory reply and that was enough to lighten my mood a bit for the day.

Apparently, after seeing the broad grin on my face, Adedoyin moved closer to me and asked. "why you smiling?"

"business is going smooooothly." I replied pulling the blankets over my freezing body.

"oh! I see...." Tapping me on the laps, she continued. "what type of business?"

"actually, its not the type of business you can understand."

"drug business?" She asked with a squeezed face.

"nah....far from it. But its a type of business that gets food on my table."

"my dear, am afraid you'll have to sell that business or hand it over to another person. I mean that business of yours."

"what? Is that suppose to be a joke? It better not be cos it lacks the comical ingridients that can make it sound like one?"

"Darous, am not kidding. I mean what I said." She reiterated in a standard manner that showed me she wasn't joking.

"wait, why would I do that? When no be say na stupidity I go learn for school...why?"

"listen...there is a good reason why I am telling you to do this."

"like what?"

"let me just say its for the benefit of the two of us..."

With a smirk, I replied.
"maybe thats a good reason to you, but how can you, telling me to sell off my business be a benefit to me? It will take a cold day in hell before I will do something silly like that." I expressed with an obstinate tone.

Sitting upright with a straight and mean face she said,"you know what?"

"No I don't know who what is."

"its actually adorable to know that you think am giving you a choice..."

"and what will you do if I refuse? Wait...you think you now owe me because you are taking care of what your foolish driver did to me...you...?"

"will you just shut the fvck up and listen?" She snarled at me. I was somehow afraid for some moments after seeing the daggers that followed her statement in her eyes. I couldn't help but wonder why she's so desperate to ruin my growing business.
Is she trying to get back at me for ditching her in the past?'

"look, am dying." Her statement carried more pains than its literal meaning.

"dying?" I paused to give her a head-to-toe assessment before I continued. "polished nails, fine toned skin, mesmerizing facial looks, expensive cloths and jwellries all perfectly adorning your body.... Ade, seems like you have a twisted definition of the word 'dying'. And sorry if my brain couldn't fish out the sarcasm in it" She nodded her head sideways in a pitiful way before she spoke.

"you think am pulling some pranks here?"

"I don't know. You show me."

"I forgot you only work with visual aid. Hopefully what am going to show you will convince you. Be right back." With that, She turned around and exited through the doorway only to reappear 5mins later with some folded papers in her hand. "here...have a look and if you have just a little brain like that of an ant, am sure you'll understand the reason why I asked you to sell off your business." She handed me one of the papers and I began to read it.

It contains a medical report of her health status dated three months ago, stated boldly in there was A PRECANCER disease! Adedoyin has been diagonised with a PANCREATITIS Cancer and she's been battling with for almost 2years now and that was in contrary to the AIDs that nurse Bose told me she had some months ago when I was in the hospital to check on Jide, before I relocated to Ekiti state.

"go to the sixth paragraph." She said and I hurriedly oblidged.

"what!" I cried out in shock after reading and comprehending what was written there. Written in there was an esteemated period of time the disease is going to take to finish her off. 26 months, counting from that very day. In the next 2years and 2 months, or probably before, She will be gone.

"you ain't seen nothing yet. Take this." She gave me another paper and I read through it but it was another proof backing the first paper albeit was dated two months ago.

"chisos! This is..."

"and this." She said handing me the third paper.

As if I hadn't seen enough, this third paper contains the details of a court judgement ordering her to hand over three of her houses and two companies to the government based on being found guilty of doing illegal transactions worth two hundred and sixty million naira in esteemated value some years back.

"aargh! chai....this is well-ly deeeep...infact its really borehole-ly deep...this is an apogee of trouble o..."

"glad that you finally understand the situation of things." She stretched forth her hand to receive the papers and dropped them on the stool beside my bed where the remaining energy drinks was situated.

She then proceeded to rest her butt on the chair adjacent my location.

Looking up at her with pity I asked. "but this medical report doesn't reflect in your appearance neither does the court rullings reflects in your financial status. Whats really happening?" I ended with a curious tone, which got her thinking for a while before she eventually replied.

"my healthy appearance is the result of the expensive treatments have been undergoing since I was diagonised....and talking about my financial status....hun..." She took a brief deep sigh. "am afraid, if I don't act fast, I may die a poor woman."

Out of curiosity, I asked, "what do you mean by that?"

"all thats left of my possessions, according to my Broker as at last week thursday is around 57million naira. You see, am gradually getting poor."

The doloured tone in which she used in ending her statement really shook me to the core.

104. COUNTLESS


The woman standing over my view was wearing a white overall gown that stops just inches below her thigh, a low cut dress that accentuated her mature figure.
She was stunning to say the least. Her black hair pulled tight into a ponytail on one side, yet framing a sophisticated gorgeous face with perfect makeup accentuated by a bright red lipstick.

But despite her attractive appearance, my mind couldn't help but swing into a trance as I stare blankly at her smiling face right there on my sick bed.

'Whats the devil up to this time again? Why am I seeing this woman? Isn't she suppose to have died? How can she still be alive up till this moment? Has death go on strike? Or its becoming negligent in its duty?..no I don't think so...cos death no dey strike. Something wey no get sense no fit go on strike na. Or didn't Nurse Bose explained to me that this woman's ailment is incurable? How am I now seeing her...? Or am dead already? Wait o...I think am dead o. Person wey moto jam like that no fit dey alive na!...No wonder everywhere is white.'

At that moment, I started seeing myself in a very strange environment and the theme of this new environment was plainly white.

Worry has replaced the smiling look on the face of the woman I saw when I first opened my eyes as all her efforts to snap my mind back to reality all proved futile. My blank eyes could see her mouths moving but my ears and mind were far away from helping me understand her intentions as they were still stucked in the trance mode.

'Yes! Am dead! Thats the only reasonable logic behind why am seeing this woman.....oh! R.I.P to you son of thunder...the whole world will surely miss you....all those pvssies have been left behind....gawd! All my abandoned pvssies will now belong to another man.

Lovelyn's pvssy! Although we had a brief time together before I later met her at Adedoyin's residence but she has managed to sneak her pvssy into my list of best ever pvssies.

Beatrice! Well, may her vengeful soul continue to rot in the prison of the E.F.C.C. Her pvssy is the only good thing I can remember about her....and her money! Yes Her Ego!....

Doris pvssy!..hmmm, mother of my unborn twins...wait o..she suppose don born na...he don tey wey she don get that belle na....that one no even concern me. May she never know any peace wherever she is after what she did to me o. Na no-nonsense thunder go fire am wherever she dey. Useless twät!

Chioma's pvssy! Hmmm....that lightskinned b!tch...she's also among the architect of my problems as she aided Adedoyin in drugging me and thereby sending me into Beatrice vengeance book. Although she later paid with her toto o, but whichever way it is, she's still a devil to me.

Bella and Bianca pvssies...hmmm...that one na grade A incèstuous relationship. May the two of them never forgive me wherever them dey. I really offended those guys.

Pretty and Beauty pvssies- those two ugly products of the devil...ah no fit forget the kind suffer wey ah suffer for their hands. May their ugly souls continue to melt in hell.

Who else again? Ah no even remember again jare...my list of fvcked pvssy seems like an endless one...but wait o, Ah no even get respect for heaven self...not sure maybe na heaven I dey o, but how can I be thinking of pvssy when I never know when the devil will come and take me to hell?...hmmm Darous eh....its obvious that, it was your brain Jesus was staring at when he said 'its finished' on the cross. Your brain is totally finished. Instead of you to be thinking of how to bribe any of the angel God will send to come and take you to hell, maybe that angel will allow you to stay in heaven overnight and return you to hell when its daybreak...chai...satan go......"

A mentholated inhaler stuffed into my nostrils was what disrupted my trance visuality and thereby snapping my mind back to reality. I sneezed very hard, 4 times before its effect eventually wore off. I felt a sharp and excruciating pain on my waist region as I tried to sit up and I let out a loud groan which spurred the people around me to pacify me. Standing nearer to my bed was the nurse I presumed was the one that stuffed the inhaler into my nostrils. Closer to her was Adedoyin, the woman that kick started my encounter with trouble with her abnormal infatuation of me.

"sorry dear...take it easy....the nurse said your wounds aren't totally healed. Just relax back on the bed please." Adedoyin adviced, while one of her hands was surfing my hair gently.

I raised my gaze up to her and she doesn't look like someone thats suffering from headache talkless of the chronic disease nurse Bose claimed she have.

"where am I?" I asked no one in particular.

"dear you are in my house....my driver......"

"what! What am I doing in your house?" I queried with a stern tone.

One of the nurse that just entered with a large tray containing different range of needles dropped the tray ontop the stool beside my bed and walked closer to me with a wide grin.

"Mr Darous, am nurse Shola." She introduced herself as she stops beside my bed. She offered me an energy drink which I gulped down instantly. My throat was totally dry. The other nurse in the room still held the inhaler in her hand as she sank herself comfortably in the cushion.

Then Nurse Shola continued. "have been the one treating you since two days ago when Madam requested your custody from our hospital where her driver took you after the accident."

I just opened my mouth slightly agape and unable to close it like an over used pvssy as Nurse Shola's words began to make sense in my brain. The awful memory of the accident replayed in my brain as I maintained my bare-chest sitting position.

I glanced briefly at Adedoyin who was wearing a pitiful look on her face.

"Ade, why are you staring at me as if you're seeing a ghost?" I asked Adedoyin. But she then signalled to the nurses to vacate the room and they instantly did, then she leaned forward towards me and began with a calm tone.

"my dear, am sorry my careless driver hit you. But you have to understand one thing here. Despite how you maltreated and abandoned me, I mean, despite how you've made me cried severally, am still the one standing beside you on your sick bed.....because even after everything you did, I realise how much love I have for you." She paused to take a deep stare into my eyes and I couldn't help but feel guilty of how have misinterpreted her intentions in the past, whether genuinely or fakely is what I can't really tell.

"Darous?" She called softly.

"ye...e..s...s" I stuttered that out slowly.

"am I wrong to love you?"

"huh...I....I...can't answer that really but maybe everything that happened in the past happened for a reason..." I said.

She was silent for more than 10secs and seems to be ruminating on what I said before she spoke.

"I think you are right...everything happened for this very moment to happen. When I will be the only one left in the world that can help you. Remember what I told you sometimes ago... I said, I know you will still come back to me one day. And I believe that day has eventually arri...."

"maam..." Nurse Shola interrupted from the doorway. "its time for his medication."

"okay...just a minute please..." Adedoyin said and the nurse returned outside.
Turning back to me she said. "its time for your injections. I will be in my room. We continue our discussion after your treatment....remember,helping those that doesn't want to help themselves is like a waste of time." Slowly, she walked out of the door and her short absence was instantly replaced with the presence of the two nurses.

Slowly, I lowered my back on the bed and a tear drop escaped from my eyes as everything Adedoyin said began to echo in my mind.

"sir, you need to take your injections now....." The nurse informed and began to prepare the injections.

Seeing the lenght of the needle that will penetrate my body, I became instantly apprehensive and nervously afraid at the sametime. There's no way in hell am going to open my eyes and watch that thing enter my body. Not even if my life depended on it. No! No way. I rose up immediately and grab the nurse by the wrist just when she was extracting some fluids from a little botte.

"whats the matter." She queried looking into my eyes.

"nurse...nurse...don't worry again...am now okay...I don't need any injection."

"you've got to be one hell of a comedian...you that could barely sit upright is telling..."

"See you've got to understand me. Am a son of thunder, and thereby alergic to anything that belongs to the god of Iron...."

"what nonsense are you talking about?" She said angrily.

"I mean that needle belongs to the god of iron. If you insert it into my body as a son of thunder, na wahala go follow am o. Please nurse, believe me...." I protested pleadingly while the nurse just let out a frustrated sigh and dropped the injection inside the tray.

"but, you have to take it now. No, no, No!"

"what do you mean No? I said am okay. I don't need any stup!d injection. Na your body? Eh? Answer me!"

"ofcos its not mine...but..."

"no more buts, I said am okay. I don't need injection...na my body not yours!" I tried to rise up from the bed but I instantly felt another round of excruciating pain around my waist region. I let out a groan and the nurse helped me back onto the bed.

"seems like your mouth and body are not on speaking terms..."

"what do you mean?" I shot back at her amid groanimg sounds.

"You said, you are okay but your body says you are not." She said in what seems like a mocking tone.

I eyed her scornfully while she returned to what she was doing earlier.

"now, you have to take this now, or we do it the hard way!" She stated authoritatively and continued. "but, maybe being handsome and crippled at the sametime won't be a bad thing afterall." She stated seriously.

"you can't be serious!"

"I wish am not" She replied.


Who says karma hasn't turned me to its private b!tch afterall.

continuation of Countless 103.


It was unexpected at first, seems too much for my brain to comprehend as I continued staring shockingly at the floor.

On the floor, just inches away from the bed, lies a gagging Blessing thats groaning and rolling on the floor with whitish fluid bubbles coming out of her mouth.

In what seems like a quick reflex, I dashed towards her, and thanks to my muscle, I was able to succefully lift her into my arms and carried her outside the door before I started shouting for help.

"please Blessing stay with me...please don't die...please....please!!!" I spoke on while watching her eyes and eyelids perform a close and open action for that brief moment before two male among the motel attendants came to aid me in putting her now unconscious body inside a car volunteered by another guest of the motel as she was being rushed to the hospital and I followed suit.

***

"Mr Darous, first of all, that lady is lucky you arrived on time...." The doctor came to inform me at the waiting hall, fourty minutes after they had began working on Blessing. "Mr Darous, had it been you arrived seconds after, only Gawd knows what would have happened by now...." He paused to re-adjust his falling glasses and continued.
"secondly Mr Darous.....we carried out some test on her and we found out that she ate a poison.."

"chineke! Rat poison!" I lamented folding my arms across my chest.

"but calm down, your girlfriend is out of danger for now..." He called her my girlfriend because thats how I introduced her to them when we got there so they can start working on her immediately."but..." He continued and paused.

"what doctor....?" I queried anxiously.

"we detected that there's still traces of poison inside her blood stream which can still be harmful to her health if not totally flushed out."

"oh gawd of poison!...doctor you mean she can still die?"

"yes...but not if you get us the sample of the poison she took or its container" stated the doctor.

"I don't get you doc...what are you saying? Poison container or what?" I stated confusedly.

"what I mean to say, Mr Darous is, getting that poison or its container is paramount at this stage, as that would help us in determining which type of Poison neutralizer and treatment we're going to use on her. So that she can start recuperating fast." he explained.

"but am not teaching you your work o Doctor, please can't you use a Master poison neutralizer or antidote that can flush out all types of poison?"

"am sorry Mr Darous...nothing like that in the medical world. Just help us get the said requirements. Her life depends on it." He stated vehemently and made to walk away but I quickly shipped in.

"but Doctor.....I don't even know how and when she took the poison...how am I suppose to know which type of poison she took when she didn't even give me any hint that she's going to take poison as her last supper?"

"Mr Darous....am afraid there's nothing else we can do until we lay our hands on what I asked of you....excuse me please...other patients are in need of my attention." With that, he bowed out and dissappeared through another entrance.

I hurriedly got out of the hospital and began walking towards the main road to board a bike. While at the main road waiting for bike, I quickly called Jide to inform him of the latest incident and he promised to come to the hospital soon.

I pocketed the phone and began searching nervously for any upcoming bike that can take me back to the motel where I hoped to find either the remaining poison or its container.

"please gawd...spare her life o...she must not die like this o. She don suffer too much o...please gawd o...." I prayed fervently, nervously and seriously as I completed 10mins without seeing any bike beside the main road.

Just then, luck shined on me as I saw a bike coming from the opposite direction.

In a nervous haste, I began shouting at the bike rider.

"bike!! Elega! Elega!!" I shouted at the bike coming from the opposite direction and he slowed down slowly and parked at the other side of the road.

Instead of waiting for the bikeman to come and meet me where I stood, I hurriedly embarked on a mission to meet him where he waited just because of Blessings life thats at stake.

In my haste, I made a costly mistake and thats forgetting to do the ancient ritual of looking right and left before crossing a main road.

I dashed into the express road and I'd hardly gotten to its middle when I heard the loud hooting of a fast approaching blue Venza car, followed by a tire screeching sound and before I knew it, its bonnet has hit me hard below my waist region and that effectively sent me thumbling on the tiled road. My eyes closed instantly and oblivion overtook my unconscious body.

***

First thing I saw after opening my eyes few days later was a familiar female face smiling at me and she quickly added this words;

"glad to have you back into the land of the living dear. Longtime no see Darous."

I instantly knew it. My troubles are wakening!


TBC

First I want to show some signs of appreciation to everyone that showed me love during the time traggedy hit my family in a hard way. I say thanks to all those who called, texted, whatsapped, instagramed, facebooked, 2goed, eskimied, badoed, and twittered me inspirationally.

Thanks alot and I pray and hoped such never befell you or your family. AMEN.


103. COUNTLESS


Jide's parents and there relatives were all present on the day of the naming ceremony.

Likewise in attendance were Favours Mum and Dad and their well wishers. Also in un-invited attendance are the we-must-chop your-food-gangs.

"the name of this bouncing baby boy, according to what his parents listed here are: Joseph, Dylan, Darous Jnr and Oladimeji. May he live long to take all this names to greater heights in Jesus name!." The whole congregation chorused 'AMEN' at the end of the pastor's speech and that kick-started the time for merriments.

(song) :-

"girl I have a question to ask you today, will you marry me though I met you today.....and she says, You don't even know my Father, o de momi rara, you don't even know my Mother, O de fe fimi saya....can you pay my bride price its just a million dollar.....

Easy o Jeje, take it slow o......kole to yen my darling jeje o....." I danced slowly with Dylan, Jide's new baby boy in my arms as Easy(jeje) new song of Reekado banks continued sounding from the giant speakers outside.

"Jide, you know, I can't help but wonder why you dey shy to ask god for comon sense?" I said to Jide the moment he finished changing his cloths to a casual one and after I'd also returned Dylan to his Mum.

"you don start again.,wetin ah do you this time o...?" He asked with a teasing smile.

I gulped down the beer in my cup and readjusted my buttocks on the plastic chair.

"why you go name your pikin after me na? You wan turn me to celebrity ni?"

"Darous, see you dey talk as if you no deserve more than that....and incase you no know, thats to tell you say ah no fit forget that name of yours for my life....and even after everything you don do for me when I was sick....you truly deserve am jare my shango friend." He ended conclusively with a smile.

"hmmm....anyway, what are friends for? But guy wait o...you no go tell me how you managed to convince Favour to marry you...?" I asked and just when he was about to reply, Jide's Dad came inside and asked me to excuse them that he wants to have a discussion with Jide outside thereby leaving me alone inside.

I sat there surfing the internet on my phone and minutes later, Favour, Dylan's mum walked inside and we engaged in a conversation.

"Darous Darous....how things na?" She asked, after laying Dylan in his craddle.

"wo...we dey push am jare...and you? Wetin dey sup?"

"fine o..." She answered and sat down on the sofa opposite my location.

"You know, I keep on wondering how Jide managed to convince you to marry him despite the inhuman way he used in getting you pregnant..."

"hmmm...infact me self no know how he managed to convince me o. But what I know is that, your decision to forgive him after everything he did to you was what really helped in changing my mind and since then have come to know him as a really nice guy."

"really?" I asked suprised-ly.

"trust me....thats the blatant fact."

"hmmm....na wa o...I just pray we all find happiness within eachother o."

"amen o." She replied then picked her phone and dialed a number afterwhich she engaged in a short discussion with the person before she returned her attention to me.
"which work are you doing now?"

"presently?" I asked.

"no...futurely, talk jor" She said with a playful smile which further showed her extreme beauty.

"hmmm....I deal in betting business...and presently, I mean actually I...." I was saying when a noise from outside distracted us. We both hurried outside and it was there that I saw Blessing (Jide's former Fiance) waving the shards of a broken bottle she just smashed against the table at Jide.

Cladded in a blue jean top and blue 3-quater jean, with a cowboy boots on her feet and a ruffled hair on her head was a Blessing I once knew as a peaceful and easy going girl. But here she stands, almost unrecognisable with a weapon in her hand.

She indeed appeared like a tickling time bomb thats waiting to explode if care is not consulted before anyone tries to approach her.

Fortunately for Jide, his Dad was nowhere in sight during that nasty period.

"wey that pikin wey you born make ah smash in brain with this bottle? Eh?" Blessing's voice snarled out again at Jide who appears really frightened at this new version of Blessing thats standing before him.
"bring him mama out make I pieces her!" She cried out desperately.

"calm down please...." I said as I slowly walked towards her. "calm...down Ble..."

"don't you fvcking Blessing me...are you all not birds of the same feathers? Eh? Darous...tell me you are not part of this stupid ceremony!" She roared again as she continue bouncing up and down the large canopy.

"Blessing, I know you're hurt...but violence isn't the answer to this...lets just settle this amicably..please..." I pleaded further as I neared her and quickly wrapped my arms around her breäst region trying to subdue her. Jide and two other guys joined me and the bottle was disconnected from her hand but she didn't drop it without a fight.
"Jide, who is this riff-raff that the devil have sent to come and spoil my grandchild's peaceful naming ceremony?" I turned around and saw Jide's mum looking at Jide probably for answers to her questions.

I wanted to ask her why she waited for Blessing to get apprehended before coming out to talk but I just ward it off.

Jide just continue staring blankly at his mum without saying anything and his mum lost her dominion over patience with his mute actions.

"are you deaf...? Can't you talk? I say who is this riff-raff..."

"eh mama, am not a riff-raff...and for your information, my name is Blessing and am suppose to be your...." knowing what Blessing was about to say and the damage her words would cause, I quickly cover her mouth with my free palm and hurriedly conclude her statement for her.

"erm...ma...she's...she's...erm my girlfriend...she's actually here to fight me because I forgot that today is her birthday....and she thinks its your grandchild that took my attention that she desperately wanted away from her."

"aww!...poor girl....girls of this days sha...work of too much weed!" I hear one woman say.

"how sad... Is she a mental patient?" Jide's mum asked gesturing at Blessing who was still struggling to get my palm out of her vocal department so she could tell that everything have said about her have been lies, but no...the devil is a big liar, I must make sure she doesn't talk.

"i think so.." Jide replied his mum in reference to her earlier question.

"how sad that my grandchild shares the same month of birth with such a lunatic lady...and Darous, don't you think you're too responsible for you to be dating this nuiscance?" Jide's mum voiced out angrily and I could feel how Blessing reacted as those words sunk in.

"am sorry ma...it won't happen again ma." I said just when the woman was about walking away.

"sorry for yourself...just take her to Aro so that she doesn't bite someone here." She dropped that with a harsh tone and she signalled to the Dj to turn up the volume of the music and the gathered crowd started dispersing one by one.

3hours later, I was at the same Motel with Blessing. Two of Jide's friend had helped me in taking her away from the party and Jide had entrusted me with the task of making sure Blessing doesn't comes back to the party. Reminding me of how important his new re-union with his dad meant to him and he won't allow Blessing to ruin it for him.

"Darous...whats all the rubbish you said back there? You dey craze?" She blurted out loudly after we'd entered the room.

"what I did back there, my dear lady...is saving your painful and reckless arse." I retaliated and she eyed me with a scornful look but I didn't care one bit. "how can you even think of going to that kind of place without consulting your brain? How can you go there and be displaying a rare level of madness..? You just went there to embarrass your..."

"don't you dare put the blame on me Darous....as if am the culprit here....tell me, did I do anything wrong in seeking vengeance? Eh? After what your friend did to me, am I the one you'll blame?" She retorted with a furious display.

"and I once thought you had sense, but...."

"but what? Go ahead, complete the damage you've done...!" She fired.

"well never mind....just take it easy...or else you will just continue disgracing yourself...just hand everything to gawd...eh?"

"are you alright? Hand what to gawd? After everything I did for your friend...is this the reward of my 5years relationship with you guys? What am I going to tell my parents that have been on my neck telling me to bring them my fiancee? What of my friends...wetin ah go tell them say happen to my fiancee that have been telling them about?...tell me Darous...." She paused to wipe away the tears that formed in her eyes with her left hand. "don't worry Darous...you obviously don't know how I feel....I know what to do sha....everything that has a begining must surely have an end." She said and sat on the bed.

"your hand is bleeding." I stated after noticing the blood thats dripping from her hand. She took a glance at it, then returned her gaze to me.

"not your business Darous." She fired.

"ofcos it isn't, but I won't stand and watch you mensturate with your hands. Get it cleaned, then take a shower and relax...only after then, we can talk." I said and walked out of the door.

I had barely walked two feets away from the door when I began to hear sobbing sounds coming from inside.
I instantly hated Jide for what he had done to this lady. I felt nothing but pity for her. Only if I could help her heal her wounds.

"go back and pacify her and stop being a male-ly b!tch" A voice commanded from within me.

I stood there for almost 3mins still deliberating on maybe to go back inside and pacify her or just continue my trip to the resturant beside the motel but I suddenly heard a loud thud from inside. I turned back instantly and ran back inside but the sight that beheld me was a very terrible one.
