EPISODE 48
OLUCHI’S POV
I woke up as early as 5am, that morning, the kids weren’t yet awake, so I force them up.
I bath them, and made a quick breakfast for them which was bread and tea.
After they were done eating, i called mama to inform her that I would be bringing my children over to her place.
I told her they would stay with her, pending when Kenneth comes back from wherever he went to.
Mama instantly agreed, and encouraged me to bring the children over.
Where Mama lived wasn’t far from us, so i quickly booked a cab, and in less than 20minutes, we arrived at mama’s place.
I briefly discussed with mama, then i left her house, and went straight home to rest.
I wasn’t in a good mood to open my shop, i still kept on calling Alex to see if he would respond, but still no show from him.
The day went by, and yet I didn’t see Kenneth, and I also didn’t heared from Alex.
I became confused and unhappy, because I was worriedly sick over two men in my life.
My brain couldn’t even think straight, one minute, I’m thinking about Kenneth, the next minute I’m thinking about Alex.
As if that wasn’t enough, i started crying when I couldn’t bear the chaos going on in my brain.
I cried myself to sleep that night, without even eating dinner, I felt downcast.
The ray from the bright morning sun peeping through my window woke me up that morning.
I blinked my eyes which was still heavy with sleep, and some itchiness, as a result of the tears i shed last night.
I angrily covered my face with a pillow, groaning angrily.
My head banged in great pain, and I whimpered silently.
I slowly sat up from the bed, then i reached out to my phone to check the time.
I was surprised to discover it was almost 10am, and it was Friday.
How on earth did i woke up this late?
nawa oh………I exclaimed.
I got up from the bed, rearranged it, then I picked up the broom and swept the room.
Afterwards I went to take my bath, after i had finished bathing, i was applying my beauty products on my skin.
While I was doing that, my phone started ringing, from where I sat, i peeped to see who was calling.
To my greatest surprise, it was the almighty alex who was calling.
I wanted to ignore his call, because he made me went through stress this past few days, but knowing that I was aiming at something, i quickly picked the call at first ring.
Hello Alex………I said Nochalantly.
Hello pretty angel how are you doing?…….he asked.
Am good……..I replied.
Hey what’s wrong, you don’t sound good to me?…..he asked.
Alex did you called to make mockery of me or what, do you mean to tell me you don’t see my calls and texts messages since all this while?
Even though you want to pretend you didn’t see my calls and texts, will you also tell me your secretary didn’t inform you that I came to your office?……….I yelled angrily.
Calm your temper my darling, I have been too busy this period, it’s not as if i don’t see your calls or texts, but I am always too worked up to attend to them…….he replied calmly.
Is that all you have to say, does that mean I don’t matter anymore to you?……I asked angrily.
Okay, okay, am sorry, it won’t happen again.
Are we okay now?……he asked.
I won’t forgive you yet until I see you…….I replied, sounding serious.
It’s okay then, i too want to see you, that’s why I called, i want you to come visit me on Sunday.
Really, no problems, I will be very much available that day…….I replied, smiling sheepishly.
Okay, I will have to go now, bye for now, I will send you some money later……..he said, and hunged up.
After the conversation ended, i squealed excitedly, i couldn’t wait to see alex on Sunday, so I can archive my plans.
Minutes later, i was eating when the door opened widely, and I was shocked to see Kenneth.
He stepped into the room looking like a stranger, because of his new wear’s that looks expensive.
The fragrance in the room changed immediately Kenneth stepped into the room.
I almost choked on my food, when I perceived the strong perfume fragrance oozing out of Kenneth.
He stood by the door, staring at me, like he was disgusted about something, he wasn’t even looking sober as before.
Where are you coming from Kenneth, so you abandoned me and the children, and went to be with another woman isn’t it?…….. I blurted out angrily, staring daggers at Kenneth.
But he ignored me and was asking after his children.
