THE DESPERATE DAUGHTER-INLAW WE LOST
“Shit!” He cursed as he walked into the room angrily with his wife following behind him. “Calm down, babe,” she said after him as she walked into the dim room. She could see him standing before the window with his hand placed on his forehead dejectedly. “What do you have to say any longer? Uh? It’s over!” He slammed, turning to face her. “Keep calm, Dotun. We need to think. I never saw this coming though,” she said as she stood behind him. “Oh, of course I did see this coming! I warned you about it, didn’t I?!” He barked. “I..I’m still stupefied. How did she get pregnant?” She asked to no one in particular. “Ask her husband. Ask Daren!” He fired and she sighed and looked away from his face. “No, Melisa couldn’t have gotten pregnant so easily, no,” she argued, shaking her head. He kept silent as he watched her speak and he heaved a sigh and turned away from her. “It was way too fast, Dotun. Can’t you perceive the fishy smell coming out of all these?” She asked as she

SOUTH AFRICA, CAPE TOWN The heavy breeze from the sea blew across the tall curtains on the walls. With the sun shining radiantly, they stood by the windows gazing at the rocky sea which was distances away from the house. They could see a few people walking to and fro at the sandy shore, including fishermen who were preparing their nets to be cast into the sea. “Nice view you’ve got here,” Daren said to his wife who was standing beside him with her face beaming with a smile. “I’ve always loved this place. Dad and I usually come over here for vacations when I was still so young,” she said with her voice spilling emotions. He sighed and took hold of her hand. “I’m sorry for everything I’ve put you through,” he said as he looked at her face. “Daren, you should stop saying that. We’ve always stuck together despite the challenges and I know you will always be here for me,” she said with a wry smile on her lips. He heaved a sigh and walked slowly to her back. He stood behind her

In the beautifully lit up garden, their voices could be heard as they chatted and laughed over dinner. It was dark and only their voices could be heard all over the place. “See, you regained your beauty just after I made you feel good in bed,” he said, looking into her smiling face. She was wearing a white lingerie over black skimpy skirts with her natural black hair falling on the sides of her face. “Look at you, I’ve always been beautiful,” she argued as she picked her meat with a fork. “Argue with the hands,” he said while showing her his hands and she sneered in his face. They both laughed and continued eating their food slowly. Just then, she began to feel pains in her waist down to her abdomen and she held her waist tightly. “Love, are you okay?” He asked as he saw the tight look on her face. She didn’t respond and he dropped his spoon as he saw her twisting on her seat. “Love,” he called again. “Argh,” she winced as the pain became unbearable. “Love!” He voiced

It was a bright beautiful morning as the mild morning sun settled on the window blinds. Her dry lips broke into a smile as she saw Daren walking into the ward, holding balloons and a beautiful bouquet of flowers. She could see the warm smile on his face as he approached the bed, dressed handsomely in a black turtleneck long sleeve top and black pants. “You are my sunshine, my only sunshine. You make me happy, when the skies are gray. You never know, dear, how much I love you. Please don’t take my sunshine away,” he sang beautifully as he walked to the bed and kissed her forehead tenderly. Mrs Thambisa and her daughter couldn’t help but gush from where they sat beside the bed. “Good morning, sunshine,” he said with a smile as he looked into her pale face. “Morning, love,” she said with a smile as he caressed her forehead. She took the flowers from him and smiled as they looked into each other’s eyes. “How is my baby May doing?” He asked as he walked over to the cradle. “Sh

A MONTH LATER Her beautiful face beamed with a smile as she stepped down from the jet with her husband beside her. They were both beautifully dressed in red native Buba attires and they could hear the crowd clamoring their names as they stepped down from the jet majestically. Mrs. Selina could be seen walking behind them with the baby firmly in her hands as she waved at the crowd who were cheering at them. It was a beautiful atmosphere at the Taiwo’s mansion as different kinds of exotic cars could be seen moving into the mansion. Men and women, elegantly dressed could also be seen moving to and fro at the entrance of the banquet hall which was beautifully decorated. There was a loud cheer from the people as the black Rolls-Royce pulled up in front of the banquet hall. Cameras and flashlights became the order of the day as they all stepped out of the car and proceeded to the banquet hall. They were welcomed by the local music band as they stepped into the beautifully decorated hal

She hastened her footsteps as she walked along the lit up passage where she could see a few people in front of the restrooms. Some waved at her and she waved back with a forced smile on her face. With her heart pounding so fast, she scanned her eyes all through the passage in search of Rita. Jerry’s presence is no good, she thought as she increased her steps. “Mommy May,” she heard a voice behind her and she turned to see Rita standing in the middle of the passage, staring at her. “Oh, thank God I found you,” she cried in relief as she walked back towards her. “Are you okay?” Rita asked as she saw the anxious look on her face. “Rita, I’m in soup!” She cried hysterically. “Meaning?” She asked, looking puzzled. “Jerry is back!” She exclaimed in whispers and she shrieked backwards Immediately. She began to pace in front of her with her hand cupped on her chin. “And..Is he here?” She asked in confusion. “Yes! He came to Daren and I. And gosh, that psycho almost put me i

She sighed tiredly as she walked into the room with Daren following behind her, carrying the baby. She sat on the bed dejectedly with her face downcasted. “Love, the baby needs a bath,” she heard him say as he placed the baby on the bed. She could see him undressing the baby who was about to cry and she smiled wryly. Daren had proved to be a very caring and supportive husband. With him beside her, she was pulling through her postpartum days easily. She thought about Jerry and her heart skipped. Why does everything have to happen this way? She thought and her eyes welled up. “Love,” Daren called again as he stood up right and he could see her staring at the baby. She raised her head towards him and stood up at once. “The baby needs a bath,” he reminded. “Oh,Um..yeah,” she muttered and took the baby from him. He stood for a moment watching as she proceeded to the bathroom with the baby. What possibly could be wrong with Melisa? He thought. After having a good night shower

It was fully sunrise when she arrived at the mansion. As she stepped into the house hurriedly, the cry of baby May sounded in her ears. “Lisa!” She heard Elsa Boseman’s harsh voice calling behind her. She froze for a moment and turned slowly to see her sitting in the dining room with baby May in her arms. “Where have you been?!” She thundered. “Mom..Mom..I,” she stammered as she walked to the dining room. “Speak and stop the stammering!” She yelled with her brows gathered together. “I went to visit Rita, my friend. She was sick and there was no one to look after her. I had to take her to the hospital,” she lied. “And you had to leave May behind?” She asked angrily. “No..mom..it was too early to take her along,” she explained and Elsa sighed. “She needs your attention,” she said as she handed the baby over to her. “Thank you, mother,” she said. She turned and saw Daren walking down the stairs. He was dressed in a black suit and tie, with his brogue shoes leaving tr

THE DESPERATE DAUGHTER-INLAW THE END
ONE WEEK LATERInside the spacious banquet hall, beautifully decorated to the core, people could be seen sitting around the tables covered with white linen cloths and flowers. A lot of delicious delicacies, drinks and desserts could also be seen on each table. Slow music played in the background and the beautiful colorful lights could be seen, illuminating the whole place.“May I?” Daren asked with his hand stretched towards Melisa who was walking towards him, dressed in a long beautiful black fishtail dress that was designed all over with beads and glittering silver stones. Her beautiful chubby face was heavily made up and her earrings and necklace sparkled like diamond as she sampled them with pride. Her red full lips broke into a smile as she gazed at Daren who was standing before her, dressed stunningly in black tuxedo and silver bowtie.She smacked her lips seductively as she looked at his charming dark round eyes which were looking into hers. He leaned towards her and his lips l
THE DESPERATE DAUGHTER-INLAW PEACE
Within a second, men heavily armed and dressed in police uniforms surrounded the room.“Your hands in the air!” The men in front ordered with their guns pointing towards him.He turned to look at his mother who was still sitting on her seat, wearing a stone cold face and at Melisa who was weeping heavily as Diana’s body was covered on the floor.“Mother, you shouldn’t let them take him. We can work things out,” Daren cried and rushed towards his mom who didn't utter a word nor make any move.“Mother!” Daren cried as he watched Dotun being handcuffed by the police men.“Daren, put yourself together!” Evan consoled while holding him together.“I can’t let them take him, I can’t!” He cried as he stood up immediately and surged towards the men who were trying to walk Dotun out of the room.They pushed him away and his father and Melisa pulled him back as he tried to go after the men again.Watching Daren cry brought tears to his eyes and he stopped in the middle of the men with his body t
THE DESPERATE DAUGHTER-INLAW THE DEVIL'S QUEEN
He brought the ringing phone out of his suit pocket as the car drove speedily along the road. He looked at the caller ID and his brows gathered as he saw the strange number which popped up on the phone.“Hello,” he answered grumpily.“Hey, buddy,” A cheerful male voice sounded from the phone.“Who are you? Be straight,” he ordered impatiently.“You don’t need to know me. I’m your savior. Turn around quickly and head back to the mansion. Your beloved wife is having a good time with her lover. Hurry up if you want to catch them red handed,” the voice continued.There was a moment of silence and his face hardened. He felt perspiration all over his neck and brows and he couldn’t catch his breath for a moment. He adjusted the red tie over his neck and he began to pant heavily.“Who are you?” He managed to ask.“Like I’ve said before, I’m your savior,” he replied again and his heart skipped.“You can believe me if you want to, you can also choose not to believe me. It’s all in your decision
THE DESPERATE DAUGHTER-INLAW A WAY OUT
“Hold on, I’m coming,” she voiced out tiredly as she walked over to the door. On opening the door, she froze on her spot as her eyes fell on Elsa Boseman who was simply dressed in a red long maxi dress and black beaded scarf wrapped around her head. She swallowed hard and looked away from the smiling Elsa to Charles Boseman who was standing behind her, wearing a calm smile on his face.Her brows gathered deeply and she heaved a sigh and walked away from the door immediately.“Li..Lisa, I’m.” Elsa tried to speak as she walked into the house with her husband following behind her.She stopped for a moment as she saw Daren in the living room, playing with May on the floor. Her eyes never left the beautiful girl who was laughing with excitement as she played with her father.She gulped as her eyes fell on Daren who was now looking in her direction. He stood up immediately and walked towards them with his eyes looking at his father sternly.“What..what is going on here?” He asked angrily w
THE DESPERATE DAUGHTER-INLAW SHE ESCAPED
The gate opened and they both stepped into the dark room which was void of light. He switched on the torchlight he was holding and flashed the light against the room. He cringed for a moment as he saw the old woman lying still on the floor. He flashed his light all over the room again and he shook his head and let out a chuckle in dismay. “What is going on? Where is your mother?” Diana asked, walking ahead of him with her eyes looking all over the room. He flashed his light up to the ceiling and the window and then he stopped with the light pointing at the bloodstain on the wall close to the window. “No..this..this is not happening,” he cried in disbelief as he walked to the wall hastily. “She escaped!” Diana cried, looking alarmed. He began to pant heavily and he turned to the old woman who was still lying on the floor. “Wake up!” He yelled as he walked over to her. “Wake up, you witch!” Diana yelled while hitting her with her boots. “Stop,” he ordered and she stopped while pa
THE DESPERATE DAUGHTER-INLAW AWAITING JUSTICE
“Father, are you saying we shouldn’t go ahead to arrest that devil?!” Evan yelled from the couch where he sat, staring at Charles with his eyes burning with fury.“Evan, Daren, keep calm and do as I say,” Charles urged as he looked at the young enraged men who were sitting opposite him.Melisa could be seen sobbing silently with Toyosi sitting beside her, patting her shoulders.“That evil woman made me suffer for years. She caused me enough pain that could have made me lose my sanity. What if Daren had not come back for me? What if he had let his rage get the better part of him and he does something stupid to me and my daughter? If God had not been faithful to us, where would we have been by now?” She asked amidst tears streaming down her face.“Lisa, it’s enough. We are glad that you are alive to witness this day. Justice will finally be granted to you, Daren and May,” Toyosi consoled.“Love, put yourself together and be calm. You know your condition,” Daren said from where he sat.S
THE DESPERATE DAUGHTER-INLAW THE REVELATION
Marching into the private ward he was kept in, they could see two policemen standing beside the hospital bed where he was lying with fluid running through his veins. They both heaved a sigh of relief as they caught sight of him and his head turned in their direction, hearing their footsteps.Daren walked slowly towards the bed and the policemen offered him a seat.He declined and Charles took his seat diligently with his eyes fixed on the young man lying on the bed, looking debilitated.“You asked to see me. What happened to you?” Daren asked grumpily.“She tried to kill me,” Jerry said with a chuckle.“Who?” He asked with his eyes wide open.“The one behind all of your mysteries,” he replied with a smile.“Be straight,” Charles commanded from his seat.“Your brother’s wife, Diana,” he spilled and their eyes bulged.He turned slowly to look at his father whose eyes were wide open in dismay.“Tell me more,” Daren urged immediately.“I don’t know how she found out everything that was ha
THE DESPERATE DAUGHTER-INLAW MAKE IT MORE SERIOUS
Walking into the room, he heaved a sigh and took off his jacket.“They took the threat seriously, babe. Did you see the frightened look on their faces?” He asked with laughter while turning to face her.She smiled and sat on the bed gracefully.“Yes, they took it seriously. But don’t be surprised if your hard hearted mother fails to comply,” she said and he frowned.“She won’t. She wouldn’t want to trade the life of her family for anything else,” he said and she scoffed.“And What if she proves stubborn in the end?” She asked, walking up to meet him.He kept silent and exhaled deeply.“I don’t know what my next step would be,” he said.“We need to make it more serious,” she said and he pulled a surprised face.“How?” He asked sharply and she didn’t reply.“Like, you want me to kill someone?” He asked.“No, I’m not asking you to kill anybody. But we could at least hurt someone,” she said.“Who?” He asked.“Any one of them,” she said seriously and he didn’t reply.*The chirps of birds
THE DESPERATE DAUGHTER-INLAW THE THREAT
The small gate pushed open and she walked into the room, holding a small tray of food. She could see the women lying on the floor wearily and laughter emitted from her lips.At her sight, they both sat up slowly and they could see the evil smile she was wearing as the light from the window reflected all over her face.“You..you decided to bring us food today?” Mrs. Selina asked with a shaky voice.“Oh, I thought you’ve died, old witch,” she said with a chuckle as she dropped the food on the floor and pushed it with her feet towards them.“You don’t disrespect my mother in that manner!” Elsa yelled and she laughed.“Look at you, the bossy Elsa,” she mocked and walked towards her.She leaned closer to her face and chuckled.“Your days of being a boss are finally over. One more word from you and I will see that you go hungry for three good days,” she threatened and Mrs. Selina shook her head in fear.“Now, eat,” she ordered and the women looked at each other before looking down at the sm
