"She's still been avoiding me oo Serwaa," Tenison said through the phone.

"Kwame, s3 me Kae s3(Kwame I said it ). She's just an opportunist, she just wants your money and fame. The current job she's doing kraa, her sugar daddy got it for her, unlike some of us who have suffered in life." She added smiling.

"Wow!" He said. He was dumbfounded at the information he had gotten from her friend.

" Yes, Kwame I told you like you but you aren't giving me a chance," Serwaa said thinking she had twisted Kwame's mind against his friend

Kwaasia baa (foolish woman), you think you're wise er?, I'd show you. Kwame thought to himself while Serwaa was yabbying on.

I miss Kwame oo. Its been a while I hang out with him. Today being a Saturday, let me pay him a surprise visit. Imelda thought to herself as she showered and then dressed in black jeans and a maroon spaghetti top pairing it with gladiator sandals. She picked her purse, phone, and keys as she headed out.

"Your place is beautiful o," Serwaa added as Kwame offered her a glass of juice.

"Thank you obaa hemmaa (queen)" He flattered. He joined her on the couch as they cuddled watching tv. 

Imelda met Maakua at the porch playing by herself. "Maakua, where's daddy?" She questioned.

"He's inside with attie Serwaa." The girl confessed continuing with what she was doing. 

Serwaa again? She thought as she went inside with Maakua. She prepared food for the little girl since she said she hadn't eaten.

A couple of minutes later, Kwame emerged out of his room bare-chested wearing shorts hanging dangerously below his waist. Serwaa followed suit wearing a short nightie. Maakua had fallen asleep and Imelda had taken to her room.

"What are you doing here?" He asked Imelda.

"I came to see you, Kwame." She smiled ignoring the glares Serwaa sent her.

"As you can see, I have a guest. Slay mama, Slay queen." He insulted.

"Excuse you, Kwame, with all due respect I won't have you insult me." She said firmly.

"Okay, madam, leave my house and  don't want to see your two left legs here again." He ordered.

"Because of this one? This two-timing liar of a friend. I wish you all the best." Imelda added walking off.

"My friend get out!" Serwaa added her voice as Imelda left.

Efia Serwaa, how could she, after all, I told her of how felt for Kwame. Did she go ahead to betray me?  After all, I did for her? Suro nipa oo(Fear people). She thought as the Uber parked in front of her house.

"Medaasɛ (thank you)." She told the driver paying him as she entered her compound.

" I told you to be careful of that one o. But you wouldn't listen to me, and now see what has happened." Abena scolded her friend and colleague.

"Abena, the fact he chose her won't spoil the wonderful friendship I have with him or his daughter, life is too short to lose good people." She said as Abena got up to prepare food for both of them. 

Abena had recently moved to Imelda's house to rent an apartment. They were next-door neighbours and their friendship was beginning to bloom.

"Attie!" Maakua ran to hug her teacher as her father set her down. "Maakua baby, how was your weekend?" She asked her little friend.

"Fine." She said as she ran into the class.

"Hope you're doing well?" Tension inquired.

"I'm good and you?" She asked.

"I'm well, do have a nice day Imelda." He added. "Now its no more Akosua, you, have a nice day too Kwame." She smiled as she walked off.

"Eii, Serwaa Papabi, my only bɛbɛ". The minister greeted. " Musa, how are you doing ?" She asked chewing gum lying on her bed.

"My love, I'm fine o and you?" He inquired.

"I'm good, I just miss you." She added rolling her eyes as they talked on.

"Don't worry er, the Gh¢50,000.00 will be wired into your account in a few seconds." The minister said.

"Aw, darling I love you too much, thank you." She happily said as she had an alert on her phone.

"I guess I'm seeing you this weekend ?" He asked.

"Of course you are, I'd be at the location on Friday night. She added as a matter of fact.

"Alright, I'd talk to you later." He added hanging up as Serwaa jumped up and down on her bed.

Kwame no dieɛ, me de no so sɔ adeɛ de ayɛ adeɛ( As for Kwame I'm just using him to pass time and of course for his money.) She thought to herself smirking.

"Can I offer you a ride ?" He asked as he went to pick Maakua from school. Recently, she had become the last pupil to leave for home.

"It's fine, I'd pick a taxi." She added as Maakua entered the car.

"We're all going the same way, just let me drop you, ladies." Kwame insisted as Abena nudged her friend convincing her with her eyes.

"Alright." She agreed as they entered the car and he drove off.

A few hours later, he dropped them in front of their gate as Abena headed inside. Maakua was fast asleep.

"Thanks, you guys should head home so she could have a bath and rest since she has already eaten," Imelda said.

"Okay Madam, I've heard you, I'd call you when I get home." He stated.

"Drive safe okay?" She advised. "I will, goodnight." He replied as she waved them and entered her apartment.

Kwame had gotten a nanny for Maakua, so as soon as they got home, she bathed the little girl and then put her to sleep. Her eyes were drooping. Her nanny was Kwame's little cousin who opted to look after the little girl so that he would pay her. The pay was good for the job. It was Gh¢300.00 a week. She could save up for vocational school she had wanted to attend.

"Hey, Akosua" Kwame greeted on the phone. "Hi." She added rubbing her eyes. She didn't realise when she even fell asleep.

"I'm sorry for waking you up." He sincerely apologized. "It's fine, I didn't realise when I fell asleep." She said. "How is your girlfriend Serwaa by the way?" She asked. "Oh that one, she's not my girlfriend, just my to go girl when I need sex, nothing more or less." He said. "Hmm, I've heard you o Kwame." She sat up straight. 

"I'm not ready to commit now, she sef I'm about dumping her for another fine lady I've seen in my office, a slay queen just like Serwaa." He said stretching his legs.

"Men! You never change always chasing anything you see in a skirt." Akosua added chuckling as they talked on.

I'm off to bed Kwame, I have a class at 7 am wai, unlike you who can go to work anytime you like or not go at all." She yawned checking the time as it read 1:30 am.

"Alright, sleep well ohemaa, goodnight." He told. "Goodnight Kwame." She added as she hung up and headed for bed.

    "Ah!, Kwame what is the preschool teacher doing here?" Serwaa asked she joined them at the restaurant."She's my guest, and she has a name." He added."Let's not talk about that, why did you keep me waiting for half an hour? Some of us have work to do o." He angrily said."Mr Man, I won't have you insult me because of your chicken change, I have men who are willing to spend on me and not stingy men like you wai." She barked."Abeg, give me my money and let me get out of here." She barked as Kwame gave her a whopping sum of Gh¢100,000,00.00 making Akosua open her mouth wide as he signed the check."If you need me, give me a call ya."

    Abena asked her friend as she entered the class to speak with her during recess. Akosua, how are things going with Tenison? "Hmm, things have only gotten worse, oh, he can't afford Maakua's fees anymore, so she went to live with her grandmother for a while while he figured himself out. Just one meal a day, Kwame can't afford it, o.” She complained to her friend in a trembling voice. She was affected by the whole thing--it hurt her to see the man she was head over heels in love with suffering this way. What hurt the most was that he would not allow her help. But she forced her way to him at times. "I hope things turn around for his good," she added as they talked for a while, then she left the class. "Kwame, how far is the plan going?" his friend Kwabena asked him as they watched a football game. "Everything went well, Serwaa had left, so it left with Akosua, Amma and Nella," he explained. "Great, let's see who wins," he explained as they resumed play. "Let me call Kwame for some

    "Eiii...if it's not the preschool teacher and the good Samaritan." Serwaa teased as she met Akosua at the wedding of one of their SHS classmates. "Serwaa, how may I help you ?" She asked ignoring her previous comment. "You can't help me o, your poor wretched self can't do me any help at all." She insulted. "Serwaa, I've had enough of your insults. No one insults you for sleeping with married men for money o, so allow me to live my life annoyance of a dying cockroach, mtchwwww." Akosua added as she left Serwaa standing aimlessly. Akosua decided to forget about her problems and free her mind. She enjoyed herself at the lady's wedding before going home. Kwame had sold his house and had given her some part of it to keep to take care of the costs involved in solving the case. He had moved to stay with his mom. Sometimes he goes to stay with Kwabena and other times he comes to visit Akosua in her home."Mr, Tension Boateng, was found not guilty of the crime he was admitted of. But still, th

    "Kwame, you aren't getting any younger o. You need a wife. Maakua needs a mother. Enough of this game already and choose a wife. Besides all the women you were testing have all left excluding Akosua. She's been there since day one." Kwabena advised as they drank beer."You're right Kwabena, but she's way below my status. Imagine what people will say about me marrying a common preschool teacher." Kwame retorted."Does it matter, Kwame does it matter? My fiancée Verna owns a saloon, she's a hairdresser and I'm happy with that. Both my parent's consent of her and I'm cool. She makes money, so do I. We are cool like that." He said."Don't let society make you lose a virtuous woman. Who could have done what she did for you?" He asked. "Just name one woman who can do this except your mom." He added waiting for his friend's answer."There you have it. Don't wait until it's too late. A word to a Wise is in the north(a word to a Wise is enough)" Kwabena concluded."You're right man, it's time t

    Is that not Serwaa or whatever she calls herself? Abena wondered to herself as She spotted Serwaa in most of the crowd dancing with a young man.Well, her business doesn't concern me. Let me focus on myself. She thought."Hey love, sorry I was gone for a while. I needed to talk to a friend." Kamdyn apologized."It's fine Kofi, no worries," Abena added as he took her hands into his."Ruby, we've been hanging out and getting to know each other for a few months now.

He said."Kofi, within these few months that I've gotten to know you, you're a sweet, loving and caring man and to top it all you're hot. I admit I've grown fond of you and want this too.

    “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. She had parked her car in front of a supermarket and was getting stuff for her baby.“Ɛii, asɔfofoɔ aa moaba,sɛi aa na afɛ no aso, kyerɛsɛ wahu sɛ me wɔ sika nti no, me kunu yɛ sika adro, fi maniso kɔ ee (Prophets of doom, you've seen I'm a rich woman and so you're claiming my husband does money rituals, leave my sight)."She said to him.“Woman had I known is always at last."

    ~ 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." She admitted.“We need to go see a doctor," Kwame said.“But you have to go to the house today, today's the day that evil woman leaves once and for all." She determined.“Don't worry dear, I've made Kwabena pose as the buyer, I would join him after we get back," Kwame added.“Alright love." She smiled at him. She was glad she was getting her home back.“Maakua, I'm taking your Mom to the hospital so do take care of the house," Kwame instructed.&

    “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." She said to her. “I think I've started my menses, I saw blood in my underwear when I

    “What is happening with my kids at all? Why did Todd decide to move to the Northern region all of a sudden? I know my son, there's something he's not talking about. And Eleanor too, what is she up to now that her name is almost everywhere?" Baafi asked herself sitting on her couch. Father, come to our aid. She silently prayed. Serwaa had finally given birth to her baby, that's what most people thought. They had finally adopted the one-week-old baby after a week of her fake delivery. Her mother had come to stay with them and was taking care of the baby girl, surprisingly, she looked like Leo. Yaa and Maabena turned the music on a little louder.

    “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. Kwame and Maakua entered the kitchen to prepare food for Akosua. Eleanor checked the news headlines and once again she was on the front page.

    “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? What if he's a criminal in disguise or has done something terrible and is on the run?" Kisiwaa, her best friend asked. “Kisiwaa, he's not a criminal, he's a sweet charming young man and isn't like any of my exes. I'm a successful 28year old woman. I'm rich, I have my own apartment here and houses in other regions, all I need is a man to share all of this with."

    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. I've regretted everything I did. I hope you find it deep within to forgive me." He pleaded. “Its fine Kwame, I've forgiven you already." She smile

    “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?"
