I was infuriated on seeing the wicked
woman. So she’s the one troubling my
family. This is the time to take my total
revenge on her for all she did to me and
still doing to my family.
She was stunned and speechless on seeing
me and my daughter. I saw confusion
written all over her. She came to remind
my parents that the next hearing in court is
the next day. She drove out. We got into
the house as i narrated my ordeal with
Mady to my mother. She cried bitterly and
thanked God for saving my life.
My father came in and i stood up. I thought
he would yell at me, telling me that i am
not his daughter and that i should get out
but to my greatest suprised. He embraced
me and started pleading for forgiveness
amidst sobs. He said he has realised he
was foolish for forsaking me. When my two
sisters died, they became childless. I had to
forgive him. He’s my father. Since God had
mercy on me and made a way for me where
there seemed to be no way, i had no reason
not to forgive him but the only person i
doubted if i would ever forgive was Nnamdi
and his stupid request for my daughter. I
would never give him my daughter.
In court the next day, Mady didn’t believe
her eyes. She didn’t know i had become a
lawyer. I defended my parents as i
overpowered Mady’s lawyer. I spoke english
upon english with questions to silence my
opponent lawyer. I told the entire court that
Mady forged the documents. I brought up
her child trafficking case in addiction to the
one at hand. The Chief Judge asked me
how i got to know. I told him that i knew
for long but had no evidence to bring her to
book. I told them what i went through with
her but i made sure i didn’t include Prince
and Ona into the story. She was handcuffed
and held in custody while her house was
searched. The number of girls in her house
has reduced. I sought for Ona but i didn’t
see her. Some rooms were broken into and
after everything. Four human heads and two
girls in different rooms were found. The
girls were at the point of death of death as
the were starved of food and water. This is
enough evidence i said.
We returned to the court. The human heads
and the two hostages were shown to
everybody. There was a great commotion in
the court. Order was called for. Mady’s
lawyer was too stunned to say anything and
so, i fired on comdeming the wicked act
and reminding the chief judge that such
calamity attracts death penalty (as if he
wasn’t aware)
At the end of everything. The land case
was dismissed. Victory belonged to us. My
parents shed tears of joy as they both
embraced me together. My father called me
a great daughter. I was so happy.
Mady was sentenced to death by firing
squad. I waved her goodbye with a smile
telling her that everybody must reap what
he or she sows. The black maria took her
away. The court will have to go and lock
her house.
Just then, i saw a man being led into the
court for another case hearing. He looked
like someone i know. I stared at him again.
Yes, its Prince. That’s surely Prince. My
parents asked if i knew him. I told them
he’s the one that saved me from Mady,
together with another lady called Ona.
I decided to defend him. He had killed
somebody. The case was a tough one. I
went close to him and whispered into his
ears to say that he is not guilty that it was
two man fighting.
The case seemed tough but on the next
hearing, i won the case for him. He
expressed gratitute. He knew the court
would have sentenced him to life
imprisonment or death as he had no one to
defend him. He told me that Ona had died
the previous year. I wept and prayed for her
wherever she may be. I advised Prince to
start up a good business.
On getting home one day, i saw Nnamdi
waiting for me. He was begging for my
forgiveness. My parents begged me to
forgive him. My daughter heard everything
and demanded an explanation. I hid nothing
from her. Nnamdi embraced her. I quickly
drew back my daughter. But at last, I
forgave Nnamdi and allowed him give me a
tight, long and warm embrace. I was crying.
I allowed him access to his daughter but
not to take away completely from me.
I later got married to Prince. I was a happy
woman. I recalled my trials and thanked
God for everything. My mistake of getting
pregnant before marriage almost ruined my
life but i was successful in the end.
Thanks be to God
THE END
