07:02 am, August 29Osun State, Nigeria.Eniiyi woke up to something tickling her nose and she sneezed, opening her eyes. Her mom, Eartha, was sitting at the edge of her bed with one hand poised in the air. Eartha made a guilty smile, as though she hadn't expected to get caught.She glanced at the alarm clock then propped up a pillow behind her and sat up, eyebrows raised. What was the occasion?'Mommy, good morning,' she said, still confused. 'Am I missing something?''Good morning, Adekunbi. If you were to be missing anything, it'd be your smile.' She tweaked her nose.Eniiyi smiled. Mommy was being Mommy today. She was extremely funny most times. She watched as she bent over her, her thick mass of onyx-black hair falling forward to cover her face.'If you keep smiling at me like that, I think I'd have to pay a visit to the salon.'Eniiyi smiled again and threw over the covers, swinging h
04:58 am, August 30.'I can't believe you haven't packed anything, you this child, ìwo omo yì,' Eniiyi's mother chided, giving her subject of accusal a once over.The girl was still in her dressing gown over pajamas.'The grass will grow under our feet before we leave the house if you continue like this,' she further added, pulling open the door to the girl's walk-in closet.'Or the tiles, in this context. And I don't care,' Eniiyi said.Eartha turned to glare at the nine-year-old. 'Next thing, you'll go and carry cane to beat me.''No, o!' Eniiyi quickly corrected herself. 'I was just trying to . . .''To what?'Eniiyi shrugged. 'I was funnin' with you.''Who's funnin' with whom?' Daddy appeared in the doorway. A bath towel was draped round his waist and he had a red toothbrush in one hand and his phone glued to his ear with the other.Mom raised an eyebrow and went into the c
08:30 amKogi State.As Eniiyi slammed the door closed she looked around her in disgust.Okay, it wasn't anything she had expected. The street directly in front of where the car was parked stretched untarred into the distance. The surrounding houses were of different state and quality, ranging from old, mud, small to new, plastered, big. Some were painted in colours which looked horrible to her. She wondered if she'd have to face this eyesore everyday for one month.The closing of a door made her turn around. An ample woman who looked to be in her sixties came down the porch steps, a look of surprise on her face. Her short hair braided in shuku had streaks of gray here and there.Daddy was the first to go forward to meet her. He went down prostrate on the floor in front of her, his palms and the tips of his shoes touching the ground, and Eniiyi pitied his light-blue T-shirt.'Ẹ káàárọ̀ m&agr
10:17 amAbuja, F.C.T.'It's okay,' Eartha said, as her husband veered into the long-term parking. But it sounded more like she was trying to convince herself.Mide was humming softly as he went down the parking garage.She punched him lightly in the arm.'Yes, Raspberry Ripple?' he turned to her as he pulled into a parking spot.'Mide!' She sounded petulant. 'Aren't you even worried?'Mide's sigh could have easily launched a ship. 'She'll be fine, come on.''I'm just worried, she's never been to somewhere like that before. And she seemed pretty riled up about it. We should have at least gone back for the tablet, what if she needed us?''And miss our flight? Babes, she's just mad at us, which is natural. And she's in the safest hands there, nothing cou
I've got oil and beans. I've got oil and beans. I am not scared, no, not at all I'm not scared of having twins I've got oil and beans.Eniiyi scowled at the women's loud singing. She looked around for the mother of the twins, all she could see was the women and children. Some sat around the lounge room, singing. She could hear the noise some were making from the kitchen and from the aroma, they were cooking. She could see her grandmother among the women seated and just when she was going to look away, the woman caught her gaze.'Eniiyi, wáńbí,' she called over.Eniiyi
07:56 pm, September 6,Kogi State.The first most interesting thing since she'd arrived at the damn village happened to her today. She had been feeling bored, Taiwo had gone to visit a friend and it was too late for Lastborn to still be at their place and she'd slyly avoided the village children, not interested in talking to anyone. She'd been taking bored pictures with her digital camera but even with the camera's flash and her battery-powered torch , the pictures still came out dark. There had been power outage since afternoon and Taiwo was not around to turn on the generator, much to her grandmother's disgruntlement. Also, there was nothing breathtaking worthy of being photographed, especially in this gloomy darkness.So there she was, seated on a bench on the porch, armed against mosquitoes in a long sleeved T-shirt, long denim trousers, socks, and, of course, mosqu

PLEASE READ 🙃 ♟️ *clears her throat and smiles* Mmkay . . I'm sorry if this is too long, but it's necessary. This is my only author's note in this book . . . you've got to give me credit for refraining from writing one since all this months na 😐 🍒 Hola! I see you made it to the end of this book 😊 Aww, thanks soo much for reading 💓 I'm really happy to finish this book sef, when I started on the twelfth of November last year, I had no idea it was going to take meone seven five days to finish writing the book (minus the hiatus, that i
'Mide,' she said in reply, resisting the urge to break down and run into his arms, crying her apologies.She cleared her throat and made a serious face. 'What do you want here?'Mide smiled sadly and held her gaze again. 'Can I come in first?''Yes, Daddy!' Eniiyi picked up the bouquet and then took her father's hand and dragged him over the threshold.Eartha almost panicked. Why had Adekunbi done that? Now she'd have to fight the strong will to walk into his arms!She blinked again and firmed her lips. 'Mide, I told you -'Before she could finish speaking Mide deftly covered the space in between them.She sucked in a breath and tried to step back but then he touched her arm and she froze to the spot.'What do you want?' she croaked out. It took her all not to fall into his arms now. She could feel the heat radiating
Eartha and Eniiyi were still seated on the couch, long after the movie had ended. Eniiyi didn't think this was because the movie was that interesting. Her mommy had gone into one of her trances again. The girl was still trying to get used to it already since all these days.So, she waited patiently, still snuggled into her and watched the credits roll in on the TV screen.But as she stared on silently she couldn't help wondering all over when all this would stop. When she'd let them go back to Daddy, instead of sitting here all day and feeling sad.It was rather unnecessary, if somebody asked the girl.Thankfully, her mommy came out of her reverie quicker today. She sighed and pat Eniiyi's head.'Interesting movie, huh?' She stood up from beside her daughter and stretched.Even though she was smiling, Eniiyi could still see the slight worry lines that were be
~~••••~~Eartha sniffed back tears and wiped at her cheeks to check if she'd been crying. She smiled sadly and placed a hand over her tummy.It should be about thirty one days old, if she guessed right.Little one, we're going to be just fine, she said to her tummy. You'll see.As if her parents had suspected something, they had called just this morning when she was barely out of bed.She had tried to mask her miserable look and put on a bright face.They'd only called to ask about her and the family and she had lied. Had lied that she was doing just great, that her husband was fine and was not around, that their granddaughter was still as vibrant as ever and that she didn't want to wake her up from her sleep.She had long made up her mind that her parents weren't going to get
05:37pm, October15,Ikeja, Lagos State.Slowly, she stretched her hand and picked up the white stick on the wash basin. Then slouched back on the toilet seat lid and turned the stick to face her. Swallowing saliva, she continued to stare at the two bold lines stained on it.She later broke her stare and clutched the stick to her chest with both hands. By then worry had settled on her face.She stared into the unseen distance and poked the inner of her cheeks with her tongue.Well, am I not damned.She stared at it again and lowered her head. There was no denying it, pregnancy tests were true ninety-nine percent of the time.Well, I'm damned, she said to herself again.She couldn't even start to think of telling him about it. The idea just couldn't be stomached. It would open a new can of worms she'd rather keep closed.
It was almost seven O'clock when the gates buzzed open and Olumide pulled the silver-grey Pengine Ionia into their driveway.He immediately realized that the porch lights weren't on yet, same as any other outdoor light and he thought it was strange, since he could clearly see that the inside was lit.Why hadn't nobody turned the lights on? God, it was getting dark here.He suddenly became aware that someone was banging on the glass. It was Eniiyi, she must have been the one that buzzed him in. She was shouting something at him but he couldn't hear a thing, the car was still soundproof.He rolled down the glass so he could hear what she was saying.'. . . Why?' was all he caught.'What's wrong, Pumpkin Pie?'The girl pouted when she realized when she realized he hadn't heard anything she had said.'Daddy,' she whined i
To his astonishment, Baba only patted his head and slapped him lightly on the cheek.He gave a squeak of surprise. What was happening here? Had Baba hit his head? Had he taken the wrong kind of liquor today?'Thanks once again for understanding,' Mide said, still all smiles. He had watched the whole episode and had seen the shock on the little boy's face.He chuckled to himself. Nothing a little money and story couldn't do. He had just had to talk with the right amount of morose and regret in his voice to convince the man that his son had been childish to run away was truly sorry and eager to come back home to him. And of course, a little token of money for all his worries over the disappeared boy. Fourty thousand naira did the job just fine.He remembered Eartha punching him in the arm last night after he ended the call, for being a smooth operator.'No problem o. In fact, I sho
