🌷SAM🌷
Eva isn’t enjoying this game as happy as she wants everyone to believe she is, she’s that sort of person that will show you what you want to see and hide what you don’t.
I know her, she knows but I still don’t know why she is bent on making me taste bitterness, I should be pleading her to take Kate but I also want her to see that what she can do, I will do it even more better.
Can you br-astfeed? Can you cook? Can you clean? Just one night of sleeplessness and am feeling like mad Johnny. I wrestled with my mind.
This will be hærd for us but I will let her know that it’s the same way I can’t live without her that she can’t live without me, does she think it’s always so easy for me on those trips?
Staying away a wh0le day and spending the night lonely and craving for her. She should also feel the void and keep it in mind that she will also feel unhappy if we really get divorced.
Well, I must confess, she is more stubborn than I thought, which woman leaves her br-astfeeding child behind? I will deal with that soon.
She sat beside my father at the right hand side of the dining room and I sat opposite her beside my mother at the left side, Tyrone went to sit on her laps without hesitation.
“Where is Sandra?” My father asked no one in particular.
“Oh, she must be outside, what a terrible friend I am!” Eva exclaimed and stood up to go bring her friend in.
When she opened the door, Sandra’s face appeared immediately, “You guys are enjoying and no one thought of me” That was a statement.
“I was coming to fetch you, why did you have to sit out there like a stranger?” Eva smiled, linked their hands and drew her to the chair that Tyrone left.
“Where is my Kate? She’s thee only one am missing” Sandra asked smiling at Papa.
My father returned her smile and urged everyone to bow their heads for prayer before eating. That’s one thing I learnt from my dad, prayer before anything else.
“She’s asleep” Eva replied when father was done praying.
“Oh, poor child. She must be really exhausted from all the cry and sleeplessness” Sandra shook her head.
“Yeah” Eva replied curtly and got busy with her food.
“How are you two preparing for Bob’s birthday?” My father asked looking from me to my wife.
“Birthday? Owh…” I mumbled and glanced at Eva. She doesn’t look happy and I noticed it’s not because she forgot too but because I obviously did.
What sort of a father am I? How could I forget my son’s birthday?
That time of the year that I even buy gifts before hand but now, look what am doing, I have changed quite a lot without knowing.
“Well, there’s still three wh0le weeks left, we don’t want to rush things so that we will make it as memorable as always for our beloved son, aren’t we, honey?” Eva said and flashed a smile at me.
“Oh, yeah, that’s it” I managed and forced a smile as grim as Kate’s fart.
“I… We were actually busy when Sam called, now that Kate is sleeping, I think we should get back to what we were doing, Sandra?” She said looking solemnly at my mother.
She’s angry, oh yes! She is very angry, I blame myself again and I guess I will always do, how can I keep hurting her like this?
I need to set alarm and add all our kids birthday and even hers, most importantly our anniversary so that I will win her over again if I get the chance to.
Sandra exchanged looks with her and nodded in agreement, “yes, so that we will be done before twelve because she soon wake for nap”
“You have barely touched your food, you seem hysterical to me, are you okay, Sweet Eva?” My father asked in his usual caring manner.
He is the only one that calls her sweet Eva, if anyone else does, he or she learnt from him.
“Yes, am very fine, Papa. It’s what happens when you have a lot of things to take care of, ask Sam, it’s just like last week when he has a lot of doc-ments lying on his desk to be carefully taken care of,”
I looked at her face and she wore a blank expression, she shrugged and twitched her l-ips, that has suddenly become her habit and I see that as a sign that represents a wicked grin.
“Whatever you guys are whispering doesn’t concern me in any way but just keep it in mind that I am coming over in two weeks time to prepare my son’s birthday party o”
My mother notified and Eva’s l-ips fell open, I felt happy and I feel like jumping up and telling my mother to follow us home because that accounts for change of plans for we wouldn’t want mama to disclose the truth.
“Oh! Mother, thanks for this wonderful lunch, I wish I have more time by my side to pack more to eat over work but thanks, when you come in two weeks, you can make another for me!”
Eva was already at the door as she rushed those words and Sandra had to run after her, Tyrone moved towards her but Mama drew him to sit on her lap.
“Nana m, sit on your Mama’s leg and eat, you will soon go home to her, inugo?” Mama assured him that she isn’t leaving and he nodded, nevertheless.
“Young people, the joy of youth” Papa smiled at me and I guess he’s praising me for such a jewel as he always tells me that she is a rare gem. “I miss my youth, you know?”
He touched his mustache and smiled at my mother, she rolled her eyes at him, “don’t know that you are now a grandfather, bata mu no Kam muaria gi, agadi nwoke babe”
She snorted and I didn’t know when I started laughing at my father who’s now glaring at her, “oh, because I now have white beared, I used to be your candy crush o, ichefugo na okenye anaghi aka nka n’egwu oma agba?”
That one got my mother, she relaxed on her seat and took a very good look at him as if she needs medical attention, “That was then, not now, inugo?!” She mocked.
I laughed out loud and that awoke Kate. My heart almost busted when she cried out loud and my moments of cheer and merry was over.
🌷EVA🌷
I paced around Sandra’s massive parlor and kicked my shoes off in anger, “you witnessed that, right?”
Sandra nodded and dragged me to sit down beside her, “calm down, Eva…”
“Calm down?! Did you say calm down?!! You were there, Sandra, you saw for yourself!” I cut her off, she gaped at me.
“Eva, you are something else! He’s a man and as busy as men always are, it must have skipped his mind, stop being skeptical about this!” She said wisely but that didn’t buy me.
“Oh, now am being skeptical because my husband totally forgot our son’s birthday, something we have celebrated for eight years, I see” I drew in a long but practical breath.
“What exactly is wrong with you, Eva? No, tell me, what is happening to you? Stop acting childish over little matters, who are you?” Sandra retorted getting upset.
“Really? Is that how bad I have become? This conversation is happening because I am in your richly furnished parlor, excuse me!” I got angry for no reason and walked towards the door.
“Eva, wait! See…”
I was already out the door and I made sure I banged the door so hærd that the wh0le building cried for mercy and went away.
I realized when I was on my doorstep that the only thing I have with me is my phone, my bag is in her car and my keys… Shit!
God damnit!!
“I figured you might need this”
I turned sharply to see the owner of the voice, she winked at me and headed to the door with the keys and my handbag that hung on her shoulder.
“This isn’t funny” I scoffed.
“I know, just that you look too funny to ignore”
“Wait! Am I dressed in the back of my clothes or what?!”
“No! You are barefooted and I wonder how you crossed those three yards to this place” she smirked when I took a closer look at my legs.
“You have always eyed those shoes, I dash you” I shrugged as we got into the house, I went straight to the counter to make a good tea for relaxing the nerves.
“You know, Eva, I look forward to seeing your mother-in-law visit a week and six days from now, you and Sam will be much fun pretending to be alright in front of her”
“You think? Mama wasn’t convinced that we are okay and that’s why she pulled that stunt, trust me, I know”
“Who knows, she might help end this nonsense between you and Sam since none of you has the balls to drop pride and skip fall” She sat down and crossed her legs.
“Bitch, you can talk to me anyhow but please, stop mentioning Sam before she sneezes to death, he must be thinking that his work associates are planning to do away with his money”
“I wish you too the best of luck. Two people drunk in love and still wants to prove to each other that they are wrong, nice game for Christmas”
