Not My Fault Chapter 39
"Ol' boy, you really strong o!" Dare's voice hailed Dapo at the other end. His wife was out shopping by herself and so Dapo had taken the liberty to call his friend back home in Nigeria to break the news of his wife's pregnancy to him.Abiola Adejare had been ecstatic when she received the news hours earlier and had promised her son 'the package' on his return to Nigeria."Any improvements after that first night?" Dare asked his friend. The couple were in their fourth week of honeymoon in Los Angeles, America because Ame refused to go back home yet.Dapo hissed in answer to his friend's question. He didn't want to remember the ugly incident. They had reached America the next day of their travel and Ame had claimed jet lag and tiredness as an excuse not to perform her conjugal duty to her husband on that first night. The wife's continual rejection the whole week long had made the young husband take to the bottle and on their fifth night in America, a drunken Dapo had forced himself on h

Sweat trickled down Philip's face but the attendant nurse quickly dabbed at it with a sterile cotton swab. His eyes lit up in appreciation but he quickly turned to the patient on the operating bed. He was with a team of neurosurgeons in the theatre where they had been for the previous five hours, battling to save the life of a man who had been involved in an accident. His helicopter had crashed immediately after take off and though he had miraculously escaped death, he was in a very bad shape. He had been rushed into the emergency section of the hospital in the early hours of the morning and the senior surgeons had risen to the challenge. Philip had been surprised when he saw his name on the schedule but the Chief Medical Director had quipped that having understudied their best hands for over six months, Philip was over qualified to be part of the team.The operation had been long and hard and Philip, knowing

Philip rounded off his evening surgery and prepared to head home. He was quite happy as it had been a fulfilling day for him. He had succeeded in posting all his letters to Ame; he had even paid for it to be delivered by the Courier Express, so he was assured that this time, his letters would get to her and quickly too. He smiled proudly to himself at the great achievement, and even nodded heartily at one of the janitors who was hustling away, probably to meet up with an appointment.He had painstakingly taken his time to explain all that had happened to him, right from when he had left his beloved Ame, till when he had landed in Australia. Then, he had apologized for all the pains he must undoubtedly have caused her to pass through. He had ended his letter by expressing his unchanging love for his Ame, whom he claimed to 'always love'. He had also written his office and apartment phone numbers as a post script for her so that she could get in touch with him as soon as she received his

"Congratulations, Mrs. Alatise, you are three weeks pregnant!" The doctor beamed as she announced happily to Ego.Ego laughed in response. She looked up as she raised her arms up in praise to God. "Ah, thank You, God!" She looked at the doctor. "Thanks, doctor."The doctor nodded as she scribbled something into Ego's file which was before her. She then looked at Ego, where she sat opposite her and handed her a sealed envelope. "You have to register for the antenatal classes now, my dear.""Okay, doctor. When do the classes start?" Ego asked anxiously."We have the classes on Tuesdays and Thursdays at 10 a.m." the doctor said, as she smiled again."Thank you, doctor," Ego whispered as she returned the doctor's smile."That will be all for now," the doctor nodded her head and Ego rose up from the chair. "Congratulations once again, Mrs. Alatise."Ego could only smile at the doctor as she walked out of the room, giving room to the next patient on the doctor's appointment list. She couldn'

"Ibadan sucks, man! Why did your old man ever go and tuck you in such an obsolete place, eh?" Dare complained bitterly to Dapo. They were at their usual joint somewhere on the mainland, far from the prying eyes of nosy reporters but Dapo had announced as soon as they got together that he could not stay for long that night. Dare could not understand why a fully grown man like Dapo would still choose to dance to every tune played by his overbearing father.That was the problem with all these over indulged children of the super rich; they were too protected, like crabs full of shells, having lived a sheltered life right from their inception. These ones never knew what it meant to be poor, and had probably never gone without food for a day. Most of them could never stand on their own without being propped up by their ever dotting parents, who would stop at nothing to give their over pampered children whatever they whined for; always giving them soft landings, cleaning up their mess for the

Dapo stole quietly into his wife's room. He didn't expect her to still be awake by the time he got back home because he had stayed longer than he expected at the joint. And his sudden unexplainable and overwhelming fear for Yemisola's safety had made him insist on the hired cab dropping her off at her place first before bringing him to his father-in-law's place, where he and his wife had been staying since they got to Lagos. His parents had come for a brief visit with his wife earlier on in the day, when he had been on an errand for his wife's father. His mother had called him earlier to tell him of the visit but he had told her that they should not wait for his arrival as he had a long errand to run.He saw, as she lay sprawled on the large bed; the bed which she had denied him of gracing ever since they came to her father's place, that she looked like a big balloon nestling on a bed of feathers. Despite her bloated condition, she was still a lovely sight to be

Ame sat tiredly on the closed toilet seat in the bathroom. She closed her eyes in pain. Dapo had sounded so honest, so convincing that she had almost believed him, but the faint whiff of a woman's perfume had convinced her that Dapo's leopard could never be expected to change its spots. She had initially thought that Dapo was truly interested in her as a person but as their marriage had progressed, she had come to realize that he had only married her for his own selfish reasons, which she was yet to discover.She knew that it was out of a guilty conscience that her husband had sought out a truce with her as she had categorically made it plain to him while they were still in their home in Ibadan, that he had her permission to seek his sexual pleasures outside the confines of their marriage since she was not ready to grace his bed either then, or in the not-too-distant future and he had fully accepted it, at least judging from his unaccounted-for absences. But she

Amira walked smartly to her boss' penthouse office and knocked softly on its sturdy mahogany door. She entered as her boss' authoritative voice commanded her inside. Osaro, dressed in a simple native attire which fitted him perfectly well, sat at his huge desk, a stack of papers before him on the desk. He held his large mobile phone, which was popularly nicknamed 'knot-nine-not', in one of his hands while the other hand held his gold-plated fountain pen. His older 'son', Segun, hovered not too far from him, leafing through some documents in a nearby cabinet. Her boss appeared to be in the middle of a conversation with someone on the phone. He didn't look too pleased. The atmosphere looked tense so Amira treaded carefully.Osaro looked her way and a small smile lightened up his face. He was never one to transfer aggression, especially to his subordinates. He turned fully to Amira as he covered the mouthpiece of his handset."Yes, Amira?" Osar

The early morning sun smiled down warmly as Amenaghawon Obasogie made her way out of her father's limousine and into the grand Cathedral. She floated down the aisle on the arms of her father, who was dressed in the full traditional attire of a Bini chief. Philip and his best man, Julius, waited patiently at the level ground before the altar. When his bride reached him, Philip was expected to lead her upwards to the altar, where they would be joined in holy matrimony before a holy God and man.Julius, now a law student in a prestigious school in America, where he and Omar had since relocated to, had flown in all the way from America to grace his best friend's wedding. Omar too was in attendance, having flown in from Liberia, where he was attending a world summit Leadership conference.Even Philip's surrogate family members were also in attendance, with two of Amanda's children also there to give their support. Chief Adejare, who was still in America with his

"What?!" Ame began to shake violently. Segun quickly grabbed her and tried soothe her. Femi held her hands more firmly. Osahon moved closer to them as well. Between them, Segun and Femi did their best to calm her down.Ame found it hard to believe that Philip Omagbemi, the man she had loved almost all her adult life was alive! He had been alive all these while when she had cried out her heart sore, pining for him? He had been alive all those harrowing months when she had gone through the traumatic experience of the after effects of being raped, and then the gruesome torture of a loveless marriage to Dapo Adejare as a result of being found pregnant by her rapists! Oh, that her Philip had been alive, and walking the surface of this same earth as she had given herself up, albeit unwillingly, to a passionate experience in the arms of another man!The tears flowed down her cheeks unhindered and none of the men in the room made any effort to stop them.

"Nah wah o! Things are happening in this our hospital o!" a nurse retorted."Are you telling me!" was the reply her partner gave.The two nurses sat conversing among a cluster of trees near the Obstetrics and Gynaecology Ward, just idling away as they were on their break period."Who would ever believe that Obasogies's daughter would ever be brought to our hospital?!" one of the nurses asked as she turned to her friend, her eyes wide with an awesome wonder.Her friend gave a short, mirthless laugh as she rolled her eyes. "Babe con see security! It was her former husband's father that visited her the other day o, after her child died!" The nurse informed her friend as she shook her head sadly."Eyah!" Her partner swept her hands to cover her mouth in pity. "No wonder! Chai, that woman don suffer! I pity her o!" She shook her head sadly. Then she looked at her friend as she asked curiously, "But why did her husband not come to visit her, at lea
Not My Fault Chapter 63
A group of medical persons comprising of doctors, nurses and attendants was already converging when Dr. Philip Omagbemi made his way to the wide doors leading to the emergency theatre of the hospital. From the snatches of hurried conversations around him, he gathered that it was a critical case involving multiple patients; a case of 'hit and run' involving a mother and her child, who had been brought into their hospital as a last resort, having been rejected by the hospital nearest to the scene of the accident.Dr. Omagbemi carefully washed his hands in the bowl of antiseptic liquid held before him by one of the attendant nurses. He went forward and another nurse decked him in the operating theatre garb, complete with the cap. Other surgeons were being attended to in the same manner somewhere in the large corridor.Soon, some nurses wheeled in two gunneries on which the bloody forms of the mother and her child were placed. The Chief Surgeon chose a handful of med

Osahon parked his vehicle near a cluster of trees by the sidewalk. It had been a herculean task digging up Dr. Philip Omagbemi's whereabouts as he had had to go 'solo' mostly, seeing that none of the elderly ones around him would approve of his schemings, but he wanted what was best for his sister. He had to make this right by her; he had to seek out her old love."Excuse me, please I'm here to see Dr. Philip Omagbemi," he told the pretty-looking nurse at the reception desk.The pretty nurse looked up from the file she had before her and flashed a sweet, welcoming smile at Osahon."Do you have a previous appointment sir?" she asked him sweetly, giving him all her attention.Osahon briskly shook his head as he turned on his charms."I'm afraid not, Miss. You see," He leaned in closer to her as his voice dropped into a whisper, which the nurse strained to hear. "This is a surprise visit of sorts!" He laughed as if he had just divulgeded some kind of

Nurse Bolanle was idling by the reception desk and having a light banter with the nurses at the reception desk when Philip's name came up."Enhen, how far with you and your bobo, nurse Bolanle?" One of the nurses asked and all eyes feasted on nurse Bolanle for her answer."Don't try me o, nurse Benedict! My plans are going to be put in effect asap!" Nurse Bolanle laughed lightly as she batted her eyelids at her colleagues. Everyone laughed at her comic display then one of them asked a question."Abeg, which one be 'asap' again o?!"Before Nurse Bolanle could even reply, another nurse hissed loudly and then retorted, "Mumu, like you! Must you show your stupidity?! Who doesn't know that 'asap' means 'as soon as possible'?!""Is that the reason you should insult me then, madam 'know it all'!" the insulted nurse attacked back as she gave her colleague a withering look."Enough, both of you! My bobo is heading this way!" Nurse Bolanle quietened the squabbling nurses. She adjusted herself as

Philip descended the short flight of steps from the plane onto the tarmac. He looked around him and took stock of his surroundings. The Murtala Mohammed International Airport; the MMA, had not changed much in the three years and four months that he had been away. Happy tears blinded him as he thanked his God for bringing him back to his homeland. But for God's mercy to him, he had never thought that he would see his beloved country again.He knew his surrogate mother was wrong when she had said that Nigeria had nothing to offer him anymore. His beloved Ame walked on the very soil of this land, and though her father's re

Femi sat tensed on the single seater where he sat, not moving. He was oblivious to the tears that ran, unchecked down his face. Ame sat before him, dry eyed and seemingly looking unbothered but he knew she had been through hell and back. He could not begin to fathom how she had single-handedly gone through the ordeal she was now narrating to him.He had flown her and her daughter out of Ibadan over to his place in Jos, to offer her respite from the ordeal of the unpleasant publicity which her separation from her husband, Dapo Adejare, had caused.
