I couldn’t explained what I was feeling at that moment,if I
should be glad to see her or scared,because she coming
to my house is very suspicious, we both stay there
looking at each other without saying a words, I couldn’t
tell what I saw in her eyes, how I wish I could read
minds, well that’s for God only.
I move away from the door so she could enter, lmada
entered and close the door, she walked round the house
looking at every side, this got me scared, you readers
will be wondering why I was scared, hey I am in a
wheelchair and nobody is at home, so am all alone with
hmmmmm,should I say my enemy you wont blame me if
I call her that.
“Nothing has change,still the same house, that is the
spot I sat when I first came to this place” she said
pointing to the direction where two couches was nicely
arranged, and yes that was the same position, “do u
remember”she asked me. I look at her not knowing what
to say, what is she really getting at, was that why she
came. “Why do I hold this visit” I asked her without
answering her question. “You tell me,I dont even know
why am here, maybe I am here to see my crazy sister
who has foolishly fallen for you, the charm is really
strong,who ever prepare that for you must be powerful”
she said in a very convincing way. “What are you
saying,that am using charms on your sister, have you
gone mad, why will you think sure a time, whatever I and
your sister share is real nothing is added” I told her
thinking it will help matters, “and you are sitting down
there telling me to my face,do you think after everything
you have done you will have my sister aaaa tell me” she
said almost shouting, “lmada I know I have wronged you
but please let the past be the past I beg you in the name
of God,please” I was trying all my best to be nice and
gentle.
Suddenly she started laughing as if what I said was
funny. “Can you hear yourself, do you have any idea how
the so called past has affected me do you have any idea
what I went through, the past you talk about is what is
hurting me till now, do you have any idea what you
destroy, and you sat there telling me to forget my past,
how dare you, uyi how dare you”she said almost in tear,
I couldn’t understand anything she was saying and I dare
not to ask her, I try to say something but what should I
say because it seens like nothing I will say will change
anything.
“Am sorry” I didn’t even know when that came out, “oh
you are not, I will make you sorry, then when you are I
will know you are sorry” she said, her word really got me
upset, “haven’t I suffer enough,what more do you want” I
didn’t know if i was shouting but I know my voice was
high, “suffered,do you think you are suffering,oh you are
not,you should be grateful I didn’t have you killed but
instead cripple, we couldn’t have been having this
conversation now”, her word came like a blow to me, I
was so shock on what I heard, was she really saying the
truth or just trying to get to me. “You what, I don’t
believe you” I told her trying to act strong, “I didn’t
actually did it, I just made some calls and they had your
break tampered with, I wonder where you was rushing to
that day” she said it to my face without no remorse,now
all the anger I have been hiding just came out I couldn’t
control it, “you are a devil,how could you, am I the first
person to sin on earth, you know what I will surely win
this case and I will walk again and when I do, you will
regret it,and if I have the chance I will rape you again and
again and again until there is nothing left in yo…” I didn’t
complete my last sentence before I felt a share pain in
my stomach, I look down and saw a knife bury deep into
my stomach, a hand was till holding the knife, I looked
up and saw lmada smiling,”say it again” she spoke out,I
held her by her shoulder,I was in so much pain, “I said
say it again” she pull the knife out and dig it in again,I
couldn’t hold the pain any more I let out a cry,fell on the
floor, I wasn’t seeing clearly anymore, I try to speak but
no words can out, was this how I die, my family,my love,
I didn’t know lmada could do this,I was now having it
difficult to breath,I was till gazing for air when I heard a
scream, I recognize the voice it was mimi, just then
another scream follow that was my mother’s,I felt an
hand around my head,I could hear crying,my beloved
was letting her tear flow, how I wish I could see her face
one last time, I try to speak but couldn’t, the watery
sustains coming out from my mouth was not letting me
speak,but I know I have to try,I have to say
something,lmada came to my head, I tryed pronouncing
it countless times and I hope and pray she understands,I
couldn’t breathe any more,I was finding it difficult to
breath,then I knew am about to go,may God have mercy
on my soul,that was the last thing I thought before black
out.
I woke in the hospital after five day which I was later told
that I was lucky, hahaha you guys thought I died, well
God loves me, my parents most especially Mimi was so
happy when I finally opened my eyes, of course me too
was happy at least I didn’t die,I was also told that all
through when I was unconscious mimi has be there
24hours,she refuse to leave myside and I was so grateful
to have a special woman like her by my side, well I was
surprised that my family didn’t talk about the
incident,even mimi didn’t say anything and I too wasn’t
ready to tell them yet maybe I was waiting for them to
ask me first.
All through my stay in the hospital the incident of that
day keep flashing through my mind,and everything
lmada told me,I couldn’t believe she could hate me so
much to kill me, it was till a shock to me,I never knew
such hate till exited I thought only on movies, when I
have fully recovered I was discharged home, everything
went back again to normal but I didn’t,I wasn’t myself
not because of the incident but because of the attitude
that my parents and Mimi was giving to me,they were all
being gentle and too nice to me now, it shouldn’t be
because of my predicament,I know something is not
right.
I was in bed as usually,well since I came back from the
hospital I haven’t been able to move round am always on
the bed,because they said the wound I sustains was very
critical so it needs time to heal, I was serve my food and
Mimi was there to feed me, she sitted close to me and
try to feed me but I refuse to eat,i needed to get answers
and that was the only way I could,I know they dont play
with me not taking my drugs and if I dont eat I cant take
the drugs, “what is it, don’t you like the food, should I get
something else for you”, Mimi asked me, “am not
hungry” I said looking sad,I have to do this seriously,I
turn my face to the other side because I won’t want to
see those her charming eyes, “why,you know you have
to take your drugs,come on baby, just eat a little,please”
she pleaded, “this is it,you all are being too nice, what is
going on”,I said ,I couldn’t read the expression on her
face but I know something wasn’t right, “you are over
working your head, there is nothing going on, you know
you need more care now thats why we are trying our
best to make sure you are fine, what makes you think
something is going on”, she aske me, but I won’t be
deceived by her words, “take the food away, until one of
you decide to tell me what I want to hear I wont eat
anything”, I didn’t know if I can kerp those words but I
know they won’t let me keep it, “you know if you don’t
eat you won’t be able to take your drugs and if you dont
take your drugs you know what will happen”, “well let
anything happen” I replied her back with so much
confidence even if I had none, she let out a loud breathe
and drop the spoon she has been holding.
