I woke up so early before anyone else. Yesterday was such a terrible day for me and i didnt want it to repeat itself. I know how difficult it is to please aunty Lydia. She will never be satisfied with whatever i do but atleast if i do my work early she won't have anything to complain about.
With that thought in my mind, I stood on my wobbly feet and opened Nne's door quietly so as not to wake her up. I went to brush my teeth and wash my face before taking a bucket, heading outside my compound to fetch water. It was too early for the community tap to be opened but atleast Mrs Justice would let me fetch in her house."I just hope I'm not disturbing her" I thought to myself as i stepped outside my compound. The cold air caressed my cheeks, making me shiver as i inhaled deeply.***************

AMARACHI"God I'm so tired"I thought to myself as i stretched my arms. Little darkness still covered the horizon as i dropped my last bucket of water. It really isn't easy for me. My whole body was aching me after that countless trips to Mrs Justice house. I proceeded to sweeping the entire compound. After that i washed the plates and washed any dirty clothes available. It was already 7 once i had finished my entire housechores. I quickly made way to the kitchen to prepare breakfast of plantain porridge. I heard footsteps approaching behind me as i peeled the plantain. I turned around and saw Aunty Lydia."Aunty good morning" I immediately greeted. I didn't want yesterday's event to repeat itself. I just wanted to be on my best behaviour today. She totally ignored my greeting and scrutinized the surrounding, pacing to and fro. I could tell she was surpr

AMARACHI My heart was palpitating as i watched Nne getting laid on the stretcher and rushed inside one of the hospital wards by the nurses.It was painful seeing her in such a condition. I could never imagine loosing Nne. She isn't only my grandma.She is my best friend and mother.I love her so much.If anything happened to Nne i will never forgive Ogechi and aunty Lydia.Tears kept on streaming down my cheeks as i sat down burying my face in my palms. I could hear ogechi hissing and murmuring."Why is this one crying now?"Ogechi said rudely.I couldn't blame her. I ignored her remark. She was incapable of having human emotions. All she thought of was her self."You aren't the only concerned about Nne o"she added. I wasn't in the mood to exchange words with her. Nne is the only one on my mind right now. After wh

AMARACHI "Did aunty Lydia just let me go home instead of ogechi?"I asked no one in particular as I walked back home.I was so perplexed. I still couldn't believe I had the day off."Amara what will you use today to do?"I asked myself.I couldn't help the wide smile that formed on my lips."Maybe I should go to the shop" Immediately that thought came to my mind I frowned. Even on my off day i still wanted to work.I shook my head. I wasn't going to work. Aunty Lydia gave me the day off so I will use it to rest. "Piccolo"was the voice I heard behind.I immediately turned around to meet the smiling face of that stranger that helped me."How are you?"he added as he walked up to me.I smiled back at him."I'm fine ummm.."i racked my brain trying to figure out his name."Ummm"he s

AMARACHI A voice in my head kept on telling me to turn back and go home but I didn't want to disappoint aunty Lydia especially now when she had started liking me.To be honest I didn't trust her fully but I did trust her to a limit.Maybe she is truthfully sorry.Who knows? I shook the gloomy feeling and walked onwards determined to please aunty Lydia.It didn't take long for me to arrive at Chief Clement's house as I took a bike.On staring at his house, i was submerged in the feeling of dread and gloom.It just didn't seem right.I shook off the feeling one more time and knocked on his gate. "Who be that?"shouted a voice from the other side.I didnt know what to say. "Madam Lydia sent me"i replied after some thought. The gate opened and the gateman,a shabby looking fel

AMARACHI I heard Aunty Lydia shout my name in anger.The surprise made me jerk and abruptly stopped my washing."What could be the problem now?"I asked myself as i cleaned my hands on the wrapper I tied on my waist.While I was yet to fathom what I did,I heard footsteps approaching me angrily. I immediately stood up to meet the menacing gaze of Aunty Lydia. Anger was burning in her eyes for me.I felt my legs shake beneath me. My heart already started thumping."Aunty...."I began but she immediately slapped me.I held on to my cheek, my eyes were already wettery. I hated whenever I broke down crying before her.She delighted in seeing cry."I won't cry this time"I won't give her the chance to watch me cry.I immediately cleaned my tears. I could feel her burning gaze on me.

AMARACHI "These clothes are too much o"i murmured to myself as i ran my fingers through my thick afro hair."Amara dont worry I'll help you sew that one"Eberechi, one of the part time workers who worked under aunty Lydia offered to help me.I shook my head at her proposal. If aunty Lydia knew she was the one who sew the cloth, i would get into trouble and I didn't want her to make any mistakes on the dress pattern.It will be better i did the cloth myself. "No Eberechi. Thank you still. Just focus on yours ok. I'll do it myself"i said. She stared at me for some seconds and shrugged her shoulders, before turning to face her work.Every body minded their work as we worked in absolute silence.I loved the serene atmosphere."If only it would last like this" i thought to myself. I glanced at the wall clock, it was 1pm and aunty lydia wasn't still

AMARACHI "I'll never marry that old man!"i cried out. They all stared at me with shocked expressions . A wave of panic coursed through me but i kept calm and spoke my mind."Why should i be the one to marry?why can't ogechi marry him?""Amara!"ogechi shouted."Oh please!stop!"i shouted back at her. I was even surprised by my own courage. Ogechi stared at me,anger burning in her eyes for me but i didn't let it scare me."I am never marrying that old man. It's my life and i have the right to choose who i want to marry. Never will i marry that old man besides I'm just nineteen for christ sakes!" Everybody was dumbfounded as i talked. Aunty lydia smirked at me before hissing."So are you going against my words?"Uncle Francis asked calmly which surprised me.I kept quiet for some seconds before nodding my head."Yes i am"i r

AMARACHI What is going on in my life?I wept without restraint as i buried my face in my hands.I shook uncontrollably.I felt Nonso's hand on my back,trying to calm me down."Amara..."he began but i cut him short immediately."Amara what?why are all these happening to me? Am i that bad of a person?"I lamented trying to control my tears.He stood silent for some seconds before pulling me into a deep embrace."You aren't a bad person Amara. You just have bad people around you"he whispered in my ear.I pulled out and cleaned my tears.He raised my face just enough for me to face his."I am with you Amara"I nodded my head and picked up my polythene bag."Let me take you to your shop"Nonso offered genuinely.I shook my head at his offer,"no Nonso. It's fine. I'll go myself". My legs felt wobbly beneath me. Everything that just happened fel

Amarachi walked out of the bathroom, her bathroom robe hugging on to her wet body. She sighed and walked towards the bed, sitting on it. A deep sigh left from her parted lips once more. She loosened her braids, letting it fall down as she laid down backwards on the bed.Although she felt sad by what took place yesterday in Lydia's house, still deep down she also felt this sudden peace of mind knowing she had unraveled the hidden truths. She still couldn't believe Lydia would go that far out of jealousy.A jealous heart was truly more dangerous than poison.Lydia let jealousy eat deep into her that she totally became immune to human sympathy. She had let resentments and animosity rule over her life to the extent that she passed the hatred over to Amarachi.Amarachi never wanted to believe Lydia was that wicked but now she had confirmed it for herself. Now she owed nothing to that family anymore. She had paid her last respects and she knew she would never cro

Jordan and Amarachi both got down from the car with Amarachi feeling excited to see Nonso. He was actually the only person she got so excited to see. She silently prayed he would be home. His gate was fully opened and they both entered inside the compound.Everything just looked the same to Amarachi. She suddenly became nostalgic as she remembered those moments where she and Rebecca would come visit him. She felt her heart beat faster with each step they took inside the compound. Amarachi spotted a parked car and noticed the boot was left opened with luggages in it. It was different from the car she knew Nonso had.She wondered if some other people were now living in the compound. She dreaded that thought. She just wanted and hoped to meet Nonso before she finally travelled out. He had been such a huge emotional shoulder to her and she just wanted to see him again,

"Lydia why did you do this? My mother loved you, she loved Ogechi too. She wanted the best for all of us. Do you know she would always tell me back then that she couldn't wait to see I and Ogechi grow up to be successful women with good husbands? She loved your daughter Lydia. She loved you Lydia"Amarachi said as the tears kept streaming down her cheeks. She didn't even want to retrain herself from crying. She cried so uncontrollably that her body shook. Amarachi held on to Jordan tighter for support because she felt she could pass out any moment.Jordan planted a tender kiss on her cheek and patted her hair softly as he maintained his hold on her waist.Lydia fell to her knees and crouched to Amarachi's feet, her tears dropping on her feet whilst she wailed and pleaded for forgiveness.

Rebecca sat on a plastic chair, fanning herself with a handfan. The heat was unbearable inside the cramped self contain she now called her home.

AMARACHI I faced the large dressing mirror that stood on the wall horizontally.I couldn't believe I was actually back in Enugu. I felt so nauseous when we landed yesterday evening. I truly didn't know if it was because it was my first time using a plane or because of the fact that I was back in this state that held so much bad memories for me.Jordan held me softly as we waited for our designated driver that will take us to his mum's house. I couldn't even sleep well the entire night. I twisted and turned restlessly on the bed. I just couldn't wait for dawn so I could go meet aunty Lydia. I needed to move on and rap this up as soon as I could. Today would be the day I found out the truth surrounding my birth and my mother's death. I wanted nothing but the truth.All my life, I had alw

Raphael buried his face down wards with his hands resting on the table in front of him. He didn't know how long he had been thinking but his thoughts ran wild. Nicole was avoiding him and it hurt him deeply. The only reason he killed Tobi was because the brute was forcing himself on her. Rape was something he could never tolerate.Sex should be by consent not by force. He wasn't just forcing himself on any woman, the motherfucker was forcing himself on his woman. And he had to teach him a lesson. A capital lesson. Now Nicole was avoiding him like a plague. He only did that to protect her. Her staying away from him was equivalent to starving him of food and water. He wanted to hold her in his arms and tell her a million times how much he loved her but she was avoiding him like he had leprosy. His love life was going hay wire and now he will have to leave for Italy soon. Ivan
