Alice: simple
Me: am just so confused now
Alice: no don’t be,I don’t want to tell you what you should do because I believe you are old enough to take you decisions
Vero: exactly
Me: right now I don’t know what to do
Vero: then give yourself time to think

Me: okay then
********************************************
as at 3pm Ella,her parents,Richærd and Sharon were at our home,it was indeed a full house,after we welcomed them and we all sat at the parlour with Vero,Alice and Warder Bisi excusing us after i had introduced the to Ella’s parents.
Ella,Sharon and especially Richærd were looking like a shadow of themselves
Ella’s Dad: once again let me greet these noble home
Dad: you are welcome
Ella’s Dad: am here on behave of myself and my brother the president
Dad: once again you are welcome
Ella’s Dad: hmmm,what do I say,it is really a thing of shame when I had that a wife we married turned out to be the devil,I was really disappointed when I heard that but the truth of the issue is that it has happened already so we shouldn’t let that keep weighing us down,no don’t mistake my words,I don’t mean she won’t pay for her sins but let’s concentrate more on how to find the babies because they are ours because the story has taken a new turn*my mom was seated on a
wheelchair*
Dad: *clears his throat* hmmm,you have spoken well my dear,but I must confess that I don’t understand what you mean by things taking a new turn
Ella’s Dad: okay sir,what am trying to say is that the Firstlady has claimed not knowing the whereabout of those babies and the kidnappers caught after much interrogation has confessed to had sold the babies to an ajiah but when the news got on papers they said they learnt the ajiah had left the kids and ran away and presently they can’t tell the whereabout of the babies
Me: are my babies dead*crying* please tell me if they are dead please
Ella’s Mum: my daughter,stop crying,myself and my husband hadn’t forgotten our promises to you to find these babies and bring them back to you so please we need a little time*Ella stood from where she sat earlier and came to join me,consoling me
Dad: well I have heard,its not that I don’t know what to do,am only keeping quiet because of my daughter’s relationsh¡p with the son and as you can see it was these same issue that kept my wife in these condition now
Ella’s Mum: sorry madam,sorry,you will be well again
Mum: the Firstlady is just so lucky I was in these condition before now if not only God knows what would had happened,she has the mind to send an innocent girl to prison all because she accepted to be with her son but my God will surely judge her and place her in a condition where only sorrow and pains would be her comfort
Richærd: ma,am really sorry for my mother’s atrocities to these family and I am willing to make everything back to normal
Me: you ain’t sorry for anything,if you were you would had found my babies,I hate you Richærd I hate you *crying*
Richærd: why speak in such manner,are those kids not mine! do you think I don’t want them back?
Me: who knows when your family are the best pretenders I had ever come across
Dad: Precious,have you lost your manners?.Mum: what has come I’ve you,don’t tell me you have thrown away all the home training I gave u
Ella’s Dad: am really disappointed Precious,you insulted me indirectly
Ella’s Mum: am just so speechless,I still find it heard to believe you just vomited those insults now. yes I know you have been wronged greatly but you shouldn’t turn blind eyes to our apologies because we care that’s why we are doing everything humanly possible to find these babies
Richærd: *now crying* do you think you bear or pass through these pains alone,its even much more worst on my own side getting to find out my mother had been the devil living within,do you no how it feels like*Ella walked to him trying to comfort him while in tears also* do you even know how much the family’s name had been dragged to the mud? I wanna find my babies out there,I need to find them dead or alive because I wanna see how they look like at lest and if I don’t find them let me die looking for them. we shouldn’t be here fighting,we should put our heads together and think on how and where to find our babies
Me: *heavy heart* you and your family should go look for my babies,you have just till tomorrow or else…
Ella: Precious?
Me: don’t call me,do you know what his family has caused me? my graduation,my life,my time,I suffered in jail for no cause,on getting out the suffering continues on a heavy pregnancy, you are here calling my name *tears dropping seriously* I looked for help but couldn’t find,I prayed for death but it was far away,how would you Ella feel if it were you that after all these suffering on pregnancy, you gave birth only for those babies to be taken away from you,not one,not two,all three
Ella: *crying and stammering* I know,if I were to be you I might react worst than you are reacting but remember how you both started,remember what you guys shared already,if not for anything for the sake of your babies please,when your kids are found would you continue like these?
Me: I should forgive him for the sake of what we shared and for the…
Ella: *interrupting* he was really the one that wronged you
Me: you know what Richærd,find my babies,you have till tomorrow and for your information whatsoever it is that we had shared was in the past and should remain in the past because its over between us!
Ella’s Dad&Mom&Ella: what!!
Richærd and Sharon just looked in shock
Ella’s Mom: no no no Precious,you are taking these too far,you should respect if not my presence but that of my husband,we feel your pain that’s why we left all it is that we were doing just to get down here to speak with you and your family
Ella’s Dad: you changed so much
Dad: why that Precious
Ella: you mean you are throwing away our friendsh¡p just like these?.
Michael came to console me
Michael: it hasn’t gotten to these,don’t let your anger get mixed with your emotions.
my heart was so heavy,I couldn’t think anymore,maybe my conscience were hitting on me,I heard Sharon cried in tears “don’t so these to my brother,he truly loves you” it sounded so hærd to my hearing that I had to run off to my room in tears,I hit the room’s door open falling on the bed in deep sorrow
Warder Bisi: what’s the problem *they all looked so surprised*
Alice: why are you crying,why are you these way* I just cried even the more*
Vero: talk to us,you are killing us by keeping silence *Richærd entered,he was in tears too,immediately Alice and co saw him they excused us,we cried for some time before he sat close to me on the bed
Richærd:am really sorry for everything,I wish I could had prevented it,I take the blames so just forgive me
Me: leave my room now
Richærd: please
Me: I said you should leave *shouted*
he just should silently in tears,walked to the door,turned back staring at every part of the room in tears,he came back,walked to the small table in my room,there was a a pen on it and some books,he probably started writing in tears,I was busy crying and sobbing too,when he was done,he dropped the pen and left the room without turning back,immediately Michael entered
Michael: that was wrong Precious,you should had listened to him,that guy truly loves you,he wasn’t the one who wronged you,something would had happened to him and am sure he would had forgiven you on first plead,you just have to go see that guy and tell him you are sorry too,let me see what he wrote to you *he walked to the table and picked the book then shouted* Jesus!!! Precious read these *he handed it to me while I struggled to read in tears and on broken heart,my eyes beheld something,out of shock I had to read again and it reads*
Maybe you will miss me when I am gone. My
presence was
useless to you but maybe my
absence will make you feel the
kind of love I felt for you. You will
miss me when I am gone forever.
You will miss all those fights I put
up with you just to make our relationsh¡p
stronger. You will
miss all the tantrums I used to
throw to get your attention. You
will miss all those random silly
love poems I used to write for
you. You will miss all those
arguments which you thought
were silly but they just meant that
I loved you and I could not share
you with anyone else. You will
miss my jealousy, my mood
swings, my childish behavior, my
possessiveness,my insecurities
and my random boring
conversations. You will miss me
for the way I doted on you and
cared for you. But most of all you
will miss the undying love I had
for you and the fact that there
was a time when I could trade
both the worlds to get your love…
bear it in mind that I love you so much,see you in the next world,don’t cry for me
signed Richærd.
sudden fear gripped me,my tears dried off immediately and sudden sweat overwhelmed me,Richærd is going to kill himself,oh my God,what have I done….

EPISODE 26
FINALE Episode..
.
I jumped down from the bed and rushed to the parlour,only mother,Alice,Vero and Warder Bisi were in the parlour,I needed no seer to tell me that Richærd and co had left or were on their way out,I rushed out to the compound and saw him already entering his car and shouted out his name “Richærd!!” he turned and saw me,we stood staring at each other for some seconds in tears before I ran to him throwing my arms round his neck and we engaged in a passionate k-ss,by the time I realized what was happening everyone was outside staring at us,they applauding brought us back to earth
Mother: wow,these is a rom-ntic reconciliation
Ella’s Dad: *to her husband* can we k-ss ours please
Ella’s Dad: k-ss ko,wooh Precious am proud of you,come over her.
My dad just watched speechlessly while Ella,Sharon,Mic
hael,Alice,Vero and Warder Bisi just stood still giving us some sheepish smiles,Richærd used his palm to wipe my tears before I walked close to Ella’s dad who cuddled me
Ella’s Dad: I wish it was one of my boys that had you,you are the best anyman could have
Ella’s Mum: ah daddy what of me *made some jealous face*
Ella’s Dad: oh darling come over here,you know you are the queen of all,the best woman for daddy
Ella’s Mum: better
Dad: have you all come here to make myself and wife jealous! *walked to my mom who was seated on her wheels*baby,you had been the best all the way,the most caring and loving woman I had ever loved
Mum: honey,you know we don’t need competition, so let them be because even the skies can tell we are the best couples
Alice: supported

Co: *lol*
Dad: don’t stress your self,you should know majority carries the vote,so myself and wife won
Ella’s Dad: Igbo men and ojoro
Dad: no ojoro here,you can not come to my house and win me
Ella’s Dad: I will only accept these your winning just because we are marrying you daughter.
And I didn’t see it coming,all I saw was Richærd kneeling in front of me with a golden ring,Ella’s dad carefully let go of me while I stared at Richærd and the ring
Richærd: Richærdpresh, we had spent the best moments of our life’s together and spent the worst moments apart but with one mind,I can’t see myself leaving without you,Richærdpresh I had spent sleepless nights in your love,I don’t want my son to go through same pains for your daughter,so u came up with an idea and decided to ask you,please can we make them brother and sister?
I was so surprised, the last minutes we were fighting and the next minute here we are professing love
Me: Richpresh, Richærdpresh wouldn’t want her daughter to pass through these pains for your son so let’s make them brother and sister
All: applauding *as Richærd took off his old engagement ring from my fingers and ins**ted the gold ring,just then James opened the gate and bump in on us,I saw disappointment written on his face as Richærd drew me up*
Richærd: now we need to find our babies
James: they are here,am certain they are your missing triplets*immediately a woman opened the gate carrying two babies and a girl of abt 16 years followed suit carrying one,I rushed to her,inspecting the babies,oh my God,I sighted the ink on the first born nail which the doctor had used so the identification of the first baby would be easily know after birth,what surprises me most was how the ink got to stay that long still fresh*
Me: *in shock*they are my kids,they are my kids,Richærd our babies*shouted* my babies,its Flourish,Flora and Flex.
everyone rushed in jubilation, I carried one while Richærd carried the boy and Ella rushed the other,I realized the babies smiling even with the noise,I gave the one with me to Vero while I go right on my kneel thanking God
Ella’s Dad: how did you find them*he finally asked*
James: my sister Mary here found them dumped at her gate two days back but only alerted me last night so I thought it might be her missing babies
