As much as Eleanor is sweet in the middle, that woman is a spendthrift. She gets paid at the end of each month, so what does she do with her salary that she's always bugging me for money? Kwame thought to himself as he sat in his office.

“Come in." He said as his secretary walked through the door.

“You can drop the files on my desk." He said not looking up at her.

“Okay, " She said as she left the files on the table and walked out.

“Hey." Akosua walked into the ward with a basket of food. Maakua was feeling lazy to join her mother visit her aunt at the hospital.

“Congrats," She said to her friend as she dropped the basket on the table. Her smile wasn't the usual one that lit up her eyes. As much as how she was happy for her friend, she was saddened by the fact that she lost her babies and her husband didn't care, he was rather running after her own blood sister.

A stray tear trickled down her face as she wiped it. “I'm sorry, " She wiped her face as Abena hugged her.

She asked getting straight to the point.“Ma, not this again, " Kwame said sitting down.“We will talk about this, you've sent your legally wedded wife out of your house with your daughter, she's not even her blood but she has taken her as her child and this is how you pay her back, for this slut?"His mother said.“With all due respect old woman, I wouldn't have you call me names," Eleanor spoke up.“Eh?"

    “Hi, is Kwame in?" Akosua asked his Secretary.“Yes please, he is." She responded as she let him inside. She was wearing a v-neck red body-hugging dress that stopped above her knees and paired it with black pencilled heels. The weight loss had made her gain her figure back.“Hey, um, er let me call you back." He dropped the call as he spotted his wife and daughter.“Mop3 den woha(What do you want here)?" He tried to sound intimidating.“If Mohammed won't go to the mountain, the mountain must come to Mohammed, so, I brought your daughter to see you." She said as she crossed her legs sitting down.“Maakua, how are you?" He asked her. It's been months he last saw her and she was looking all grown up.“I'm not fine, I hate you!" She said turning to her stepmother.“Maakua, baby look at me," Akosua added.“I know it's hard when the one you love and care for abandons you, but hate will only make you suffer, you'd be harbouring all that hate in your heart while he lives his life as he is doin

    “Maame, everything is not about sex and it's positions. You sure do know how to satisfy a man, you have a beautiful body, no doubt but your housekeeping skills suck, I always return to a dirty home, your meals taste horrible, this house hasn't been cleaned in days. This is my home, not a pigsty, you better up your game." Kwame said to Eleanor. “Look here, I'm not your house help oo, if you need your house to be clean, get a maid, not me.

She hung up.“So where we're we, sorry for that distraction, it was an important call." He said to his panel as they continued with their meeting.“Hey, you," Abena said rubbing her friend's back. She had returned from her maternity leave earlier since her mother in law was around.“Hi." Akosua lifted her head from the table.“Are you alright?" Abena questioned sitting beside her.“I'm okay." She smiled at her friend.“Are you sure?" Abena emphasized.“I think I am." She said scratching her head.“You don't look fine." Abena pointed out.“Abena, I don't know what to do again. I want my Kwame back." She told her friend.“Sitting down here sulking won't help the case," Abena added as the school's secretary entered.

    Kwame walked in on Eleanor having sex with another man on his couch. He just shook his head at them and walked passed them to his room. He was in no mood to argue with her or throw her out of his house. He just wanted to give her, the taste of her medicine.“Hurry up and get out!" She yelled at the man as she covered her body with a clothe.“We're continuing this at my place tonight." The man said as he rushed through the door. Eleanor paced up and down the living room thinking of what to do.“Babe, i-i can--" “Shhh, men suro, me bu nfuui(Don't be scared, I'm not mad), I'm going out, I'd see you when I get back okay."

He said smiling at his beautiful girlfriend. “Na me dwene biribi ho, me p3 s3 wogyae slay queen runs no( I was thinking and I want you to stop this slay queen stuff)." He told her. Aku sat for a while thinking, if she stopped her business, then what else would she be doing. She couldn't sit idle and depend on a man.“If I stop, what would I be doing, I don't want to depend solely on you, I want to do something on my own and earn my own money." She said to him.“Don't worry, mahyehye bibiara p3p33p3 ( I've put everything in place)" He told her.“How so?" Aku asked as her curiosity had reached its peak. Kwesi's house was at Devtraco Estates, around Tema Community 25 in the Greater Accra region of Ghana.“I have a boutique around community 5, and a salesgirl who runs it. I could give the shop to you and you can decide to retain the girl or not, but it would be best you did because she has a handled the boutique for long."

    “Young woman, the man you married is the cause of your childlessness, you have t o seek God's intervention before it's too late." A young pastor said to Serwaa.

    ~ A few months later~Akosua rushed to the bathroom to puke her guts out. She had been feeling a little sick for a couple of days now.“Ma, ɛden na,ɛye wo(Mom, what's wrong with you)?" Maakua asked.“I don't feel too well." She told the girl as Kwame came from the kitchen.“What is it?" He asked spotting his wife's pale face.“I don't feel too good."

    “Morning ɔdɔ(Morning love)" Kwame greeted Akosua who lay beside him peacefully. He had spent the night with her when he came visiting the previous day. They were sneaking around like two teenagers in love. “Hey, how was your night?" She lay smiling at her. “It was wonderful, I enjoyed you." He added moving close to kiss her as she moved her head. “Morning breathe." She added as she walked towards the bathroom to brush her teeth. It read 4:30 am. He had to prepare for work and drop Maakua at school. Even though she was well, the school had given her a two week grace period before she resumed. Akosua came out of the bathroom and headed to Maakua's room. She would sleep the whole day if she didn't wake her up. “Maakua" Akosua called knocking on the door as she opened it. She had just emerged from the shower when she heard her mother's knock on the door. “Good morning, darling you don't look good."

    “Hey," Kwame said as Akosua opened the door for him. “Hi, good morning" She responded ushering him inside. “Da!" Maakua called as she hugged her dad. It was a Saturday morning and he decided to come to check on them after his morning run. “Sweety, ɛtɛsen( How are you)?" He asked his daughter. Akosua was still sleepy so she retired back to bed leaving her husband and daughter to bond. “I'm fine Daddy." She answered. “Hey, let's do something for mom, she seems tired," Kwame suggested. “She stressed herself too much yesterday, that's why," Maakua confessed.

    “Aidah, are you sure you know him that well to fall for him. For Christ sakes, you met him three days ago and you're already professing love?

    Akosua was being discharged from the hospital that day. Kwame was coming to take her to her house. He had told her his plans of getting rid of Eleanor, and until she was out of his house she had to stay with Maakua at her house and he promised to come see them every other day. “Da, I hope you stick to your promise, no browning(disappointment)," Maakua added as he initiated a curve. “I would stick to my promise dear, no fake promises, I've come to my senses." He told her. “It's good you did." She said earning a knock from her mother. “Ajeei(Ouch) Ma," She whined. “Fiii, fiii, is that how to talk to your father?" She asked. “Da I'm sorry." She pouted. “Its fine dear." He chuckled, forcing himself not to laugh. “Thanks for dropping us home and thanks for everything," Akosua said. “No need to thank me, I'm trying to make things right.

    “Ah, Eleanor why have you scattered my house like that? Do I owe you? Are any of your belongings here? Ha, what sort of life is that you better be very very careful. Be careful so you don't incur my anger or else you wouldn't like it." He fumed walking into the bedroom. He had come home to pick a few things and net his house in that state. He opened his safe and took all his important documents including that of the house and left a fake copy of the house documents in his drawer.Unknowingly to her, Nelson was Kwame's informant. He told him every move that Eleanor had taken. But he decided to play along, waiting to catch her redhanded.“Kwame I was trying to clean the house, nothing more or less, by the way, where are you going to?" She asked.“I have a conference and the venue is quite far from home so I'm stating at Kwabena's place until it's over. I'd see you in the office tomorrow." He said.“But you have a conference?"
