2024-10-29 19:42:56Dapo 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

"Welcome, my king!" Yemisola's sweet, sing-song voice rang out from the kitchen. Dapo smiled endearingly as he strolled towards the kitchen. Yemisola; this sweet, unassuming woman made his world complete. Though they had carried on their affair surreptitiously, Dapo was beginning to get bolder, especially where his relationship with Yemisola was concerned. He had moved her out from her apartment and relocated her to his love nest, and he had had his lawyer change the papers from his name to hers, transferring the ownership of the house to her as a proof of his serious commitment to her this time around so that her mind would truly be at rest where his relationship with her was concerned.He had been ecstatic when Yemisola announced to him that she was carrying his baby. She had told him when he came back from his England visit with his wife and new daughter. Their lovemaking that night had been passionately emotional as Yemisola had confessed that she had always

Joke was the last person whom Dapo had expected to see at his doorstep that evening. She was provocatively dressed and what she wore left little else to be imagined. It was evident that she had come prepared to entice him. At another time, Dapo would have pounced on her right from the door and taken her there and then. Like the last time when she had been there: he had devoured her as soon as he had set his eyes on her, and they had not even bothered with trivialities like closing the door behind them. Dapo never had any visitor, and the house was well hidden from the main gate by a fence on which grew neatly, well-trimmed creepers. So hasty had he been that day that he had ripped through her skimpy clothing as he had taken her over and over again. Afterwards, he had driven to a clothes store where he had purchased some ladies' clothes for her, using the sizes she had given to him as a guide.Dapo looked at her now, as she stood before him, provocative and looki

Yemisola was shocked at Dapo's behaviour. Never before had she ever seen her arrogant lover weep his heart out in that manner. Also, his actions in recent times showed that of a truth, Dapo Adejare had turned over a new leaf. He really was a besotted lover in recent times, spoiling her everyday with countless gifts, just to let her know that she was always in his thoughts. He rarely hung out with Dare, and the few times that Dare had come visiting, Dapo had so hammered him with the idea of settling down for his own good, so much so, that Dare had stopped coming to the house altogether. They only met now in Dapo's office, and if Yemisola was not welcome to any event, Dapo would not grace such event. It was no secret among their close knit friends that she was Dapo's wife in the true sense of the word; she was the one he delighted in, the one he came to for his needs to be met. She was the one who aroused his passion, the mother of his love child.She bowed her he

Philip walked into the room soberly with his head bowed down. He had been invited in after his brief knock. He had known that it was only a matter of time before this meeting would eventually be summoned. In fact, the meeting was almost too late in coming in Philip's summations. The most recent happening had caused quite a stir, almost putting the whole hospital in great jeopardy. Philip knew without being told that a lesser placed staff member would have been shown the door with immediate effect but in his case, a call for this type of meeting could only mean one thing...That he was still a very much valuable hand in the establishment. He sent a silent prayer of thanks up to God first for another opportunity to prove himself. He then committed the meeting he was about to have into God's able hands.He greeted the occupants of the room who returned his greetings grimly. Philip was surprised at the number of people he met in the room; that w

Ego smiled happily as she spotted her husband from among the throng of the crowd at the airport. She walked hastily towards him. Her husband carried her in a delightful swirl as soon as she got to him. She had missed him so much, despite the fact that they had communicated every day during her two weeks holiday with her best friend in England.It was a good thing that Ego's husband had initiated the holiday. She and Ame had done the foolish things that only girlfriends could do, and they had left a disgruntled Rosa behind to tend to Ame's baby as the two friends had gone on a sightseeing and shopping spree, doing nothing but just enjoying the pure pleasure of being in each other's company. Even Rosa could attest to the fact that the holiday brought out a sheen in her daughter, such as her husband's visit had not been able to accomplish when he visited his young family earlier.Ame didn't look like a wife trapped in an unhappy and loveless ma

The Obasogie's mansion looked deserted as Ego made her way hastily inside. She had needed no clearance at the gate for she was treated as a member of the Obasogie family even by the domestic staff. She did not wait for her husband to tuck his car properly into the garage before she barged out of the car, nodding briskly to her husband's soft, "Careful, babe!" as she half-ran towards the mansion.Jide gratefully handed over his car keys to one of the drivers who had come to attend to him when he heard the sound of Jide's car heading towards the garage."Thanks, man," Jide said as he dashed after his wife as soon as he handed his car keys over to the driver. She was already on the marble steps leading upstairs to the private rooms of the family when he saw her. He bounded up the steps after her. He reached her as soon as she got to the landing and put a calming hand on her shoulder. He could tell by her slight trembling that she was much agita

"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

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.
