Ogechi's mouth went agape upon hearing that statement.
Becca stared at her jaw dropped expression and laughed heartily."As in how? I haven't even met him, how is he with that useless orphan?!"Ogechi yelled
Becca furrowed her brows at Ogechi,"You don't know that girl is a husband snatcher? Hold your man tight Ogechi. Let me be on my way"
Becca was about leaving but Ogechi stopped her in her tracks,"Wait please. Becca if what you are saying is true that means I need your help o. I can't let that useless girl take my man"
Becca smiled at her.
She had gotten what she wanted."I'll help you ok but for now I have to go and cook"Becca waved at Ogechi before turning to leave."Take care good woman"Ogechi said to Becca as she walked away.
Ogechi bit her bottom lip in annoyance and snapped her fingers together."Amara so you are trying to steal"Rebecca get out!"Nonso shouted as he glared at Becca with bloodshot dagger eyes. For her disgracing Amara like that was the height of it all, he couldn't take it anymore. "I won't leave Chinonso James!!! Do your worst!"Becca challenged as she shot him back with a menacing glare.After the incident that happened yesterday, Nonso was surprised on how Rebecca plunged herself into his house. Just seeing her face made his blood boil. Nonso clenched his fist in anger as he stared at her. She had her hands-at-akimbo and eyed Nonso.Nonso suddenly gripped her hand and dragged her towards the gate.Becca released screams and cries as she tried vehemently to release her arm from Nonso's grip but it was to no avail.Nonso got near the gate and pushed her to the ground as he breathed heavily."Nonso you are doing this to me?!""Yes! I dislike you Rebecc
AMARACHI "Will Becca listen to me? Will she behave aggressively?"This questions rummaged through my mind, searching for answers as I walked to Becca's house.I felt so nervous and covered in perspiration.She is my friend, or probably was my friend.I sighed deeply and shook my head, trying to assure myself that Becca would listen to me. I approached her gate and i pushed it open. I slowly entered inside. I was feeling very nervous.This was so strange because Rebecca was my childhood friend, I shared almost everything with her and now I'm feeling so nervous to approach her. It's so strange how some of the people we believed we would walk the journey of life with together suddenly turned strangers and enemies.I heard a voice coming from the backyard and I decided to go there.It sounded like Rebecca's voice.I braced myself up for any insu
"Francis I have something to discuss with you"Lydia said in a hushed tone. She surveyed the surrounding to make sure Amara won't come out from the inner rooms. Francis rolled his eyes at Lydia, wondering what she wanted this time."Amara is becoming a huge thorn in our flesh"Lydia finally stated.Francis scrunched his face at Lydia."What? How?"Lydia let out a low hiss and exhaled deeply."You don't know? She is taking away the things that belongs to Ogechi""What is this rubbish you are saying Lydia? What belongs to Ogechi that Amarachi is taking please?"Francis asked immediately."Mrs Justice came to the shop today and praised Amara's sewing work. Those brainless girls that works under me showed her a dress sewed by Amara. If not that Amara didn't come to work today I'm sure she would have even given her a cheque. That girl is graduall
Flashback Many Years Earlier "Why did you call me here?"Lydia whispered, anger laced in her tone as she stared at the masked man in front of her.She was in the bush and she hated every minute she spent here.The scorching sun gave her skin blisters and burns coupled with the incessant noise of insects here and there. She felt so irritated by everything.Lydia deeply wished nobody saw her as she stared angrily at the man in front of her."I want my balance"he replied abruptly in his deep voice. Lydia hissed at him and untied a folded part of her wrapper, bringing out some naira notes."Here take and never come to this town again. You
The smirk on Lydia's face immediately disappeared replaced by a menacing glare."Old woman you better keep your mouth shut or else"Lydia threatened as she raised a finger at Nne.Nne wasn't petrified by her threat. She knew Lydia was dangerous but she had made up her mind. She couldn't take Amara's suffering any longer."Or else what? I can't keep this within me any longer. I told chinenye about it but chinenye being a woman with a heart of gold refused to report you to her husband and Francis. All she wanted was peace to reign but i can see all you want is to inflict pains on Amara.Lydia I'll definitely expose this secret today""Lydia I know that you also lied to Ada about Amarachi and told her Ogechi is the better seamstress. All your lies are becoming too much. I'll expose them one by one"Lydia was getting annoyed and agitated by Nne's words.She stepped forward and stared at Nne with a piercing evil grin plastered on her face.
AMARACHI It's been three weeks since Nne left us. Today is her burial.It all felt like a dream to me. She was fine that day so how did she just die?I stared blankly at the sky as if the answer was written on it. The environment and atmosphere made me want to gag.People were wailing and crying."Amarachi o!"aunty Lydia suddenly cried out as she came over to me with some weeping women behind her, trying to restrain her.She hugged me so tightly as she kept on calling my name.I just sat on my spot as she kept on crying onto my shoulders. "Nne is no more o! Who will look after Amara o?!"aunty Lydia cried out as she held onto me.The women behind her kept on trying to restrain her."She was like a mother to me o! A mother to Amarachi o!" I sat on the spot, emotionless as aunty Lydia kept on crying
AMARACHII screamed immediately the hot water touched my skin. I tried removing my hands at that moment but aunty Lydia held my wrist tight.I screamed some more in pains as I could feel my skin peeling off then at once she let go of my wrist.I quickly removed my hands out of the bowl and stared at my blistered hands.My hands were literally shaking and I was quivering in fear and shock."Aunty!"i screamed at aunty Lydia."Why are you so wicked!?"I added in screams of agony and pains.She just smirked at me and watched as my hands kept on quivering."This will serve as a lesson to you"aunty Lydia replied maliciously.The gate suddenly whirled open and Nonso walked inside.He quickened his pace once he spotted how my hands were quivering."Amara what is this?"he asked in concern once he got to me.He brought my hand
Ogechi immediately casted her gaze downwards as the fear and embarrassment struck her immediately she realised the mistake she made."Goodmorning"Jordan greeted with a smile.He immediately recognised Ogechi but kept his cool. He also wondered if Lydia couldn't recognise him since they had run into each other a couple of times when he was with Amarachi.His mother motioned for him to come sit by her. "Meet my son Jordan"Mrs justice remarked with a soft smile as she put her hands over his shoulders.Lydia was oblivious of the discomfort Ogechi was going through . She was too deep in excitement of the fact that her daughter was meeting Jordan that she didn't realise that she herself had met Jordan a couple of times when he was with Amarachi.She kept on grinning from ear to ear as if she had won a lottery. "Ogechi say hi to Jordan"Lydia nudged at ogechi without even glancing at her.Ogechi kept on averting he

Amarachi let out a soft whimper whilst Jordan's one arm made its way to her breast, fondling it and tweaking her nipples through her night gown.She felt her panties becoming wet while Jordan's deft fingers kept on groping onto her breasts."Jordan.."She moaned out of breath as he pulled away only to crush his lips back on hers again, giving her no time to breathe.He let out a low guttural grown and pressed her firmly against him.Amarachi could feel his hard sex poking her thighs and it sent jitters down her body.Jordan trailed wet kisses down her neck and nuzzled against it."I'll love to go rough on you piccolo"Jordan whispered seductively which only increased the wetness in Amarachi's panties."Please go soft"Amarachi heard herself plea.He pulled back and gazed at her."I'll love this night to be perfect for you Amarachi. I want to make love to you and mak
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. Amarachi closed her eyes and cried bitterly as Lydia begged at her feet.Francis stared at his wife, disgusted by her. H
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. Perspiration covered her face as she kept on fanning herself whilst Emmanuel, the man who was responsible for her pregnancy laid on the bed, laughing to himself as he kept on chatting on his phone.Rebecca eyed Emmanuel as he kept on being focused on his phone not even minding Rebecca's multiple glares. Rebecca cursed and cried within her over her ill fate. She was heavily pregnant with his child and her mother had forced her to come stay with him. Nonso had utterly rejected her and cut her off from his life. Emmanuel had proven to her that he was just a brute. He never came back home sometimes, hardly provided money for feeding and was a strong womaniser. Rebecca sometimes couldn't believe this was the life she had to deal with it. She
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
A week had passed since that fearful incident. Nicole had entirely made sure to stay away from Raphael. She tried as much as she could to avoid his calls and texts and avoided places she knew she could bump into him.Even though she felt he was tracking and watching her, she tried her best to avoid him physically. Whenever she remembered that horrifying murder, it shook her and made her nauseous.Tobi worked under her father and he got to know of it. He was so distraught when he heard that Tobi passed away. Tobi was one of his brightest workers and loosing him was like loosing part of the brains of the company. Her father had promised to fund his funeral and he also urged the police to bring the murderers of Tobi to book. Nicole had never felt so scared in her life especially when she saw the news of Tobi's murder on the headlines. The police believed he was beaten to death by thieves. Raphael's men
