Episode 08.

Chief Adedeji glared at Ada. “What do you think you are doing?”.

She panicked and leaned closer to Bayo. “Bayo please save me”.

“There are only two options left father”.

“What options?”.

“Either you take your company to yourself and I go on with my pilot business or you allow me be with whomever I want to be with”. Bayo snarled.

Chief Adedeji grit his teeth. “Just look at the way this Igbo girl has brainwashed you. Do you think marriage is just knowing someone for few months and getting married?”.

“I am prepared to love her in an unbending way no matter what happens”.

“I will never allow this thing marry you! Never!!!”.

“Thing? Someone that dedicates her life to working for you is now a thing?”.

Chief Adedeji walked into his car and drove off angrily.

As Ada drove home that evening, she sobbed uncontrollably as she replayed the expression of chief Adedeji in her head when his son had told him that he wanted to marry her.

For once I tried to believe in love again and this person was just using me.

For heaven’s sake, why did I believe in a person again?

Why?

Why did I have hope that I will be appreciated by a person for once?

Why?

She parked her car by the side of the road and sobbed on the driving wheel.

Suddenly she heard someone knock on her side glass .

She looked up.

It was chief Adedeji.

She unwind the sideglass and looked expectantly at him.

He chuckled. “What are you crying about?”.

She got off the car and faced him. “What do you want?you came to force me to leave your son?”.

He sighed deeply. “Bayo is extremely innocent. He is too innocent to have a person like you in his life. He needs a good girl who will be patient with him and understand him”.

“I am a good girl too! But it is just that people like you make me scared of who I really am because people like you bring out the beast in people”.

“You don’t even love that poor boy! And you want to make him suffer!!!”.

“I love him!!!”.

“No, you love power!”.

“…at least we are on the same page”. She entered back into her car and drove off.

Elizabeth Ajayi visited her that evening immediately she was done with her evening bath.

She helped Ada comb her hair in the room as they both faced the mirror.

Ada cleared her throat. “Elizabeth, what do you have to gain from helping me and getting close to me? Is there anyway that Adedeji has secretly hurt you?”.

Elizabeth chuckled. “I am not surprised that you are asking me this. A lot of people have given you a reason to question every one’s love for you”.

Ada stifled laughter. “Are you insinuating you love me?”.

Elizabeth chuckled again. “Sound strange right? I am not a lesbian, don’t be scared. But there is something about broken women standing up for each other. I know where the shoe pinches. The reason I broke my husband’s manhood was not just because he cheated but his reaction after I caught him with that woman showed that he had used me. Men these days use good women. Especially women that they feel can tolerate all their nonsense. I was once a woman that thought that being used was being a good wife. I was a successful fashion designer as at then and I was the bread winner of the house, but no one knew that I was the bread winner. I used to send all my money to his bank account and then, it will look like he was the main person providing. But that day I caught him cheating, he said one word…he said, ‘Elizabeth, your job is to bring money, tidy the house and take care of our son. Not to be complaining if someone is cheating on you or not’. That word got me. And then few years later, I watched you closely as you carried out chief Adedeji’s dirty game like his faithful dog. I thought about the outcome and realized how deeply hurt you will be at the end of the day. When a broken person sees a broken person, we understand where the shoe pinches. These men are users. They don’t deserve any form of pity”.

They sobbed in each other’s arms.

“My son told me that he wants to marry you”. Mrs Adedeji told Ada as they sat in the sitting room.

Ada nodded.

“Do you love my son?”.

“I love Bayo so much”.

“What if after he marries you, he gets another wife?”.

“He will see no reason to once we get married”.

“Elizabeth Ajayi is dedicating most of her shares to the company once you get married. Why do have Elizabeth Ajayi’s backing?”.

“She is like an elder sister to me”.

“Elizabeth Ajayi is from my side in Ondo state. For five years now, we have been quite close. For her to recommend you, that means you deserve it. I approve your marriage with my son”.

That was Mrs Adedeji’s final response concerning Ada’s upcoming wedding with Bayo.

She left the house and at the corridor she jumped into Bayo’s younger sister, Dorcas.

She gave Ada a devilish grin. “You manipulated my brother into marrying you after you realized that I will take your position from you at the company and you will be left with nothing”.

“Manipulated? Since manipulation is so easy, why don’t you manipulate him into changing his mind from marrying me? I didn’t manipulate your brother young girl. Choosing me was your brother’s choice”.

“I will make life miserable for you in this house”.

Ada dialled Bayo’s number and he connected. She shivered. “Bayo please save me”.

“What happened?”.

“Your mum approved of the marriage but your sister is threatening to kill me”.

“I will be there right away”.

She disconnected the line and touched Dorcas on her chin. “When a man loves you, you have the power to even turn his mind against his family members for you. Sweetheart, if you don’t watch your back, the snake will bite the lion”. She winked and walked towards her car.

Right in front of the shocked Dorcas, Bayo drove into the compound and hugged Ada as if his life depended on it.

He went on a knee and brought out a ring. “Ada Nwankwo, will you marry me?”.

“I will marry you Bayo Adedeji”.

That was the beginning.
To Be Continued… . . .
