Romoke!!!
XXIII
Romoke smiled as she relaxed on her husband's
chest, they were in Boston in the United States.
They had relocated immediately after their
wedding. She remembered when they went to
the village for her wedding, Her mother fainted
on seeing her. She was even told that sister Nike
had died from Hiv/Aids. Maami had cried when
she told her about her sister's death and Maami
had also apologized to Romoke for not putting
her on the right path and for not praying for her
children the way a mother does. The wedding
had gone smoothly and they had returned to the
city to finalize their traveling documents. She
smiled, it's been 4 years since they left Nigeria
for the USA and ever since, the've been living
just fine. She sighed, 'there is no rest for the
wicked as nemesis will always catch up with the
guilt' she thought. She wasn't happy with Sikemi
but she was happy she was arrested finally and
was already sentenced to life imprisonment. Ade
has been busy with the Emmanuel textile
industry branch in the US, and she in turn
ventured into catering and event management
and she's doing quite well in it. and God has
been so faithful to her ever since she got
pregnant again and had a baby boy. She had
thought she would die because of the state of
her womb but everything was going quite well.
"ma'am Amanda is asleep right now, I have to
go"
"alryt, see you tomorrow " She had employed a
nanny for her child as she is now pregnant and
quite busy.
" so now we have the whole night to ourselves. "
Ade kissed his wife and they both giggled and
started pulling off their clothes in their furnished
sitting room.
" baby, let's go to the room " Ade grunted and
lifted her up, carrying her in his arms and went
to the bedroom.
" Mama..... " a little girl in her night robe, entered
their room, she stood staring at them quite
confused at what they were doing. Romoke was
too shocked to speak, Ade gave a short laugh
and turned to their child.
" baby, you should always knock before you
come in, okay? So now go back and shut the
door then knock " she noded her head and did as
she was told. Romoke smiled at her husband,
with satisfaction and kissed him.
*******************************************************
" mummy what are we having for dinner? "
Martha turned and smiled at her husband and
her daughter, they had bonded quite well even
though he was not her father.
" you will all have indomine "
" yay! " they both shouted and rushed back to
the sitting room. She continued rinsing the plates
she was washing silently thanking God for
Theophilus life. He would have been killed when
they wanted leaving for Ghana but Blessing had
missed a shot at first and had shot him the
second time and she had fled immediately. But
lucky enough for Theophilus he was shot on his
arm. She wiped her tears, she was a prostitute, a
cheap one at that and God had blessed her with
a loving husband and they were comfortable as
well, she owns a big shopping mall and
Theophilus mechanic business thrived. They
were happy here in Ghana.
"madam, abeg I don't want indomine cook
correct food for me" he said, his daughter also
came and repeated the same thing he said and
they busted out laughing.
"oya let's go let's not disturb, mama twins " he
winked at her and left. She smiled, she rubbed
her already heavy pregnancy. She had gone for a
scan and was told she would be having twins.
She didn't deserve all this comfort she has but
God has been indeed merciful.
********************************************************
Blessing shrugged, she would continue to live
with the guilt of the way she shot Theophilus.
She would have shot Martha not him. She shook
her head, she was still living in their house in the
ghetto and she still has a source of income,
which was her shop. The son she had for
Theophilus was now in school. She busted into
tears. How would he feel if he ever knew that
she killed his father and that he never loved her.
She shook her head, she has learnt her lesson,
never in life will she try to take revenge into her
hands or try to love a man that doesn't love her
in return.
"mama Theophilus " she wiped her tears, she had
named her son after him. Her neighbour was
calling her, as she stood up and walked out.
********************************************************
" mom is really disappointed in you, sis Sikemi.
Well I just came to tell you that I will be going
back to school by next week, so no one would be
coming to see you" Sikemi bent her head,she had
only wanted to teach Ade a lesson. He had also
slept with her and impregnated her then. But she
had aborted her unborn child when she overheard
him telling his friend then, that she meant
nothing to him. that he was just using her to
have fun. and she had almost loosed her life
when she aborted his child. and since she
couldn't get him off her mind and he cared
lesson her, she wanted to revenge. She sobbed,
if only she had forgiven him and let go but
instead she ended up hurting a dear friend who
had always been there for her. She held her
sister's hand
"please Dami don't leave me here... It's so cold
and lonely here" she cried. Her sister shook her
hand walked away from her
"you should have thought about that before you
engaged in your inhuman act" she hissed and
left Sikemi crying and a prison warder came and
shoved her back roughly into the cell.
"I hope Romoke will forgive me" she shut her
eyes tightly as she was too weak to cry.
