EPISODE 52
AISHA’S POV
Kenneth and I arrived Alex’s house, i purposely didn’t drove into Alex’s house, so my car horn won’t alert Alex and oluchi.
I parked my car by the fence of the house, then i strolled in with Kenneth.
The gate man was already familiar with me, so I instructed Kenneth to sit with the gate man, while I go in first, then call him in later.
I carefully walked towards the main building, without making any noise with my shoes.
On getting to the door, i was about ringing the doorbell, then i changed my mind.
Then i opened my hand bag and brought out a spare key of the door, that alex gave to me some time ago.
I inserted the key into the keyhole, and it opened at once, Immediately the door opened, i dashed in like i was in a haste.
I stepped into the sitting room, and my eyes went straight to the dinning area.
I became puzzled when I saw oluchi adding a powered stuff into a plate of food which i guessed belong to Alex.
What was she doing, was she trying to poison Alex or something……I wondered.
What are you doing?……I screamed.
Immediately i said that, oluchi jumped up in fright, and the stuff she was trying to put inside the food, fell from her hand and scattered all over the floor.
A bad stench oozed out from the stuff which was scattered all over the floor, then i quickly covered my nose in disgust.
I thought you were only shameless, but I didn’t know you were also greedy, desperate and evil…….I said in disgust.
Will you shut up, what were you looking for here, I thought Alex said he doesn’t want you again, what are you still doing here?……… she blurted.
When she said that, I felt like slapping her, but I held myself, i was here for peace and not to fight with this local champion in front of me.
You still haven’t answered my questions Mrs Kenneth, what was it i met you trying to do?…….I asked calmly.
And how is that your business, is it your concern?
Go back to wherever you are coming from, you aren’t welcomed here……… she blasted.
Wow, bravo, I can see you have mustered enough courage to play a loud music isn’t it, then be ready to dance towards it.
I bet you aren’t prepared for what’s going to hit you few minutes from now, just wait and watch…….I retorted, with a smirk on my face.
You can’t do anything, you are just making noise, just go away from here you aren’t needed…….. she fired back at me, clapping her both palms towards me.
I folded my arms staring at her with my eyes red as a blazing fire, and my whole body shaking in anger, but I didn’t want to do anything irrational.
Just then, Alex came out from his inner chambers, he was calling out to oluchi, asking her what the problem was, and who she was talking to.
Alex finally got to the sitting room, and he frozed when he saw me.
Suddenly he held his nose in disgust, because he had just perceived the unpleasant smell from the powdered stuff on the floor.
What are you doing here Aisha, you’ve been ignoring me since all this while because of your new found lover, so what do you want from me now……. Alex thundered.
What new lover are you talking about, i had been working on something important, that was why I wasn’t available…….I replied.
Don’t fucking lie to me aisha, i saw you at our favourite eatery, you were laughing with a man, what do you have to say about that?………he fired back.
Do you mind if I introduce him to you, i brought him here to see you he is just a friend to me…,…..I said impatiently.
I stared at oluchi who was looking like a lost sheep because she was ignored by Alex, then i gave her a wink.
I brought out my phone from my bag, and called Kenneth briefly.
You can come on in now…….I said briefly to Kenneth, then i hunged up.
I went to sit on one of the sofa, waiting for the drama that would soon unfold before my eyes.
In less than three minutes that I called Kenneth, the three of us in the sitting room heard a faint knock on the door.
All eyes were on the door waiting for who was knocking to come in.
My heart kept beating fast in my chest, I became nervous but I acted like i was cool.
Alex baby, please help me open the door for our guest, I’m too tired to stand up from here……..I said tiredly, rubbing my forehead.
Alex gave me an awkward look like he was debating on going to open the door or not.
Then he hesitantly left where he stood, and went to open the door.
My eyes monitored Alex until he got to the door, then he held the door knob and paused.
He turned to look at me, but I looked away from him nervously.
I heard Alex opened the door, then i turned towards the door and i quickly stood up from where i was sitting.
After Alex opened the door, he frozed looking at the person before him.
Kenneth didn’t waste any time, he immediately knelt down before Alex, crying from the depth of his heart, i could feel his emotions from where I stood.
Alex stood mute without saying anything, but I could see trace’s of tears, flowing down his cheek.
Suddenly Alex left the Kenneth who was still crying by the door, and was heading towards his room, i quickly followed him to know what he was about to do, so I would intervene.
While I followed alex behind, Along the line my eyes went straight to were oluchi stood, at the dinning area.
I almost let out a loud laughter, seeing the look of shock, and confusion on her face, she couldn’t even look at me.
I got to Alex room, and I met him Infront of a large mirror in his room, he was staring at his reflection.
I paused for a while staring at him, he looked calm, but had stream’s of tears rolling down his eyes.
From where I stood, i could feel his pains and sadness, i felt like running towards him to hug and console him, but I was a bit scared.
I called out to him, he only turned towards me, glaring at me angrily, then he turned back to the mirror.
I left where I was standing, and slowly made a few steps standing behind him, I wanted to have a conversation with him.
I was determined to stop the rift between both brothers, once and for all, i know it won’t be an easy try, but I have to.
Now I no longer cared if alex later marry me or not, i was now after making both brothers be at peace with themselves, and forget about the past.
