The following morning, before anyone got up from bed, I left for the police station to see what Brandon wants from me.
He veers at the sound of my footsteps approaching and smiled his words out.
"Welcome my wife?".
The look on his face was a lot strange, I looked and saw the police were busy, before responding to him.
"what do you want?".
The tone of my voice immediately gave raise to his, " aww, are you saying you can't come to visit your husband in jail and come to think of it, how's dad".
I got a hint of fear, "his fine?". That I said but he thought otherwise.
"Boma you're lying, how's dad?".
Once again he lets out to me.
"Speak?" He adds up pouring out the truth.
"I'm sorry Brandon, but after the incident at home, dad passed away".
( Startled look)
"What?".
He got dazed by it.
"Yes, I'm
"I went to see a friend?*.I spoke the first thing that came to me.Scott scabbed his face away and went straight to the kitchen.Phew, thankfully no one knows where I'm coming from.°°°°°°°The entire day, the whole house felt like a graveyard No laughs. No giggling. Not ever a smile on our faces was there.At the same time, my parents decided to visit me. Scott walked them into my room and at our eyes minting together. They both dragged me and gave me a tight hug."Baby, I'm sorry for what happened?".Mon said at my left-hand side."My dear, please be strong?".Dad tugged my hair behind my ears.Later on, we pulled apart."Thank you?", I gave a sign, and he evacuated the room for my parents and me to talk.Dad says, " how are you coping?".I turned around giving him an
"I know what you did dear?, I know the truth because before all this happened Scott came home and asked me for your hand in marriage".( Dad announced. Pausing to see my reaction)Urgh, that idiot!!! I knew he would do something stupid but didn't believe that going to speak with my dad was the foolish thing he would do.I danced my eyes trying to find my words. Nothing I can say would justify everything that did happen because of my mistake."Boma?".Dad cuts my thoughts in two."Yes?", I faked a smile. Dad noticed that and said. "Tell me the truth, are you still in love with Scott?". ( He fiddles for my response)"I....don't.... know... dad".My words broke in bits. I got up wearing a tense look on my face."Dear?"He whiskered me back knitting our eyes as one."You're in lo
You can say, I felt like killing him but that was the least of my problems. Mom walked in and met us talking. Scott left after seeing mom's face, she had this, get the fuck out of her look on her counternace and it got him ( Scott) running away.I don't think that mom came here just to send Scott away, perhaps something happened that got her thinking out loud."Mom ?".After Scott left I called back her attention.She walked closer not after shutting the door behind. The look in her face was distressing, what happened?, That I asked myself."Boma, you know I love you right?". Mom said."Yes mom" I answered raising an eyebrow.She takes me by my hand and sat me down on the bed, what's going on?" I that again.My head was slowly placed on her lap, she caressed my hair with her fingers and damn, it felt good .It's
Hi, I'm boma hart, there are a few things you know or maybe just forgot, after my wedding to Brandon, my life has become a daily soap opera, my father in law died as a result of what his son did, which was as a result of my infidelity with his cousin brother, who was my first college sweetheart. Can my love for Scott be the end of me?.( still on the story).Mrs. Matilda got a chance to speak. She glanced around my room, it was as if she was trying to get her words together."Aunt?", I called, reeling her scrutiny rear to me. She smiled a little, reporting with her response.She pulled my hands up and placed them on her head. " tell me the truth?. Did my son and yourself become intimate with each other?".Her imploring to know the truth wasn't going to be an easy chance to lie my way through, her gaze throbbed to know the validity. I pulled her hands down and turned my back on her with my face pinned down.&
Really, okay something isn't just right, as Mrs. Mathilda has been possessed by an evil spirit, or there's something behind her wanting to get us Married.Scott jumped up for joy at the heed of his mom's words he was the only one and the rest of the family all left one after the other, wearing a sad look.Mrs. Mathilda beliefs appear to be a lot shady, why would she decided to get her son married to me, irrespective of the fact that, she has hated from right from college, it's like anything I did to make her love me and accept my relationship with her son, blew in shades.And now after so many years, she wants to act like a good mother and get me married to the one person I've loved so much?. Oh hell no, something is wrong."Boma?" She grabs me back to her vigilance. I nodded and she says, "go to your room and rest okay because tomorrow is going to be a long day"." yes?".&
I went with Mr. David, feeling uneasy, he gets the car ready and the minute I stepped in, it drives away from the mansion."Mr. David, where are we going to," I asked.He turns around, "somewhere ma'am". That's was his response, still unable to give me what I want.The car keep on moving, I look as we drove past the highway and stopped in front of a shop."We're here, please get down,"I stepped out looming my eyes around, a lady walked out, seizing my attention."Hello," she smiles"Hi, you're?" I raised a question, she maintained the same look on her face, takes my hand, and dragged me in."Please sit,"She pushed me down on a chair and rushed out, I sat still oblivious to what was happening.Why would Mrs. Mathilda ask me to come here, and by that I meant, the hair salon?
As the light illuminated the house, I slowly veered in donning a beautiful gown.Beside was Mr. David, after we spent the entire day shopping and going to the hair and nails salon."Welcome dear" said Mrs MathildaShe walked closely, slowly moving out of the crowd.Like a sick puppy in love, I kept smiling, therefore didn't know when a hand snatches me out of the party and into a secluded spot.It was opaque so I could not see who It was, maybe it was Scott? I mumbled, not quite sure of my answer. The strange man, I couldn't see, didn't alter a word to me, instead he pins my hands to the wall, quietly gazing at me.The situation got to a point, I had to inquire, "who are you?' I tried to catch even a slight glimpse of him but instead, he let go of me and dashed away in a hurry." why are you here?".Not quite long
Our lips were just an inch closer, he motioned me to get up, which I tried too but rather a strain of my hair got tied to his shirt. "My hair!" He veered down and noticed it as well. "Urgh! Let me" he removes my hair nudging me off but this time, I dragged him as well, as he fell on me, leaving a kiss on my lips, that felt like a fireworks array, shortly the light switched on, finally seeing the face of the man, I believed it was, "you? What the hell?". In a haste, I pulled him away, as he looked on wearing a weak smile on, " what? Did think it was Scott". A nasty look pins around his devious-looking face when the same person walked the room. "Jason, Bro! What are you doing here?" He moves his eyes a little further, as he noticed my presence there, "boma, you are here?" He says ambling closer and noted the tensed look on my face. "Is everything okay?". He i
You can say, this was perfectly planned by God himself; years ago I was not only thrown away but killed all because a certain someone doesn't accept my relationship with her son.And now, she wants the same person, under a fake name and to get into a relationship with him.Once again, is this ironically fun?.While they both waited to hear my response, Luca walks in and to my surprise, affirmed to the proposal.Once again dad and Mrs Mathilda in a head count turned to hear my response, and trust me, now that Luca is on it to get married, who I'm I to say no?.I'll gladly get married to him and get my revenge for what happened years ago.."I also accept father?".Happy was the look on their faces, Mrs Mathilda rushed over and hugged me, her smell felt like it was chocking, no matter how much I'll love to rub the middle finger up in her face, it's best to calm d
Five years later?."Sophie?".Dad calls.I ran down trying to pack my hair up, that when I stumbled on a man sited next to him.The man had the most charming smile and come to think of it, he look kinda familiar.A woman walks in, I hosted my head up and the second our eyes met, I almost dropped down unconscious.Dad noticed and ran to me."Dear? Are you okay?".Telling on I wasn't sure, would be like I know something and was keeping it from him.She's Mrs. Mathilda and his Luca?".Memories of the past came flooding back, to a point I ended up falling into an unconscious state.A while longer than expected, I gasped out in a displeasing way."Are you okay?".A masculine voice lets out from behind.Veering to see who it was, dad walked in and seized back my attention over to him."Oh it's good, you
The following morning, I saw still seated at the entrance to the mansion, when a car drove past me.For a distance, I took notice of Luca inside, he walks out of the car and at the sight of Mrs. Matilda not being anywhere close to him.My feet took a fast pace."Luca?".He stopped following the sound of someone calling out his name.Luca puts up a question, " I'm sorry, who are you?".My feet revamped a step backward. I must have forgotten that he doesn't recall, who I am.Hence while trying to find my words, a hand pulled me back, inferring the same person I tried so hard not to come across with."Tell me!!! What are you doing here?".Her voice deemed the minute her eyes ran through Luca. Mrs. Matilda smiles and with an aggressive posture got my hands lucked with her." baby!! Why don't you go up to your room and I'll come to see you".&
FORGET ME NOT( Dramatic entry into the city hospital)I ran in and met everyone seated with a sad look, they hoisted up their head and found in their midst."Where is Luca?".I asked the reason behind my coming.They all pretended not to hear me and at the sound of the emergency room opening, a man wearing a lab coat walks in.Mrs. Mathilda walks in and asked."Doctor!! Is my son okay?".The doctor disapproved of her question and answered, "no, I'm sorry but Luca doesn't recall some part of his life."What part?", I joined into the conversation, only to get drawn back by the shocking news, he doesn't recall my marriage to him.It seems my memories were the only thing, Luca couldn't remember, urgh!! Can life be any wicked?The doctor seemed to be needed elsewhere, he left, and at the sound of his footsteps fading away,
The next morning.I went to work.On my way there I decided to stop at boma's grave.With everything going on, i haven't been able to speak with her.My car makes a quick stop, I rode outside and swifly made my way in.I walked past the other graves, and on reaching there, I met Juila there.What's she doing that boma's grave.I hid behind a tree, I peeked at her and watched her place a flower at the grave.Maybe she knows Boma? Or perhaps there a link between her and Boma.I need to break the ice no matter what?.TO BE CONTINUED
Julia left in a haste, she got into a taxi not even saying goodbye.Is it just me or is she acting strange?Mom came outside."Son?" She called.I turned around, "yes mom, what's going on?".I had no idea why mom was here, I just hope she isn't here to curse Juila.She never fails to not do that.Please tell me? Is that not Boma here because I've got this feeling that Julia and Boma are two of the same person?". She added.I'm guessing, I wasn't the only one that thinks so, although at first, I didn't have such a feeling, I think mom's kind of right.But I'll have to investigate first
She held her mouth in astonishment.I took a step backwards and without altering Left holding unto Julia.We walked outside the house and I left her hands alone. I rode close to my car and placed my head on it.Mom's slapped was still Itching and I couldn't help but scratch the affected place."Scott, are you okay?"Juila placed her hands on my shoulders, I turned, "yes, I am," I said.She smiles and withdrew from me.I saw the distance she maintained and smirked.What's going on with her.Is Juila feeling okay?. Why did she withdrew from me?.
She sat at the exact seat meant for Julia, mom was indirectly looking for trouble.Julia sat at the next available seat.I smiled with her and she did the same, giving me a warm smile.We all ate quietly.Julia walked to the exit and on her way out, mom yelled."Don't pretend with us Boma, I know it's you!".I turned and gazed at her.Julia turned and saw the look on her countenance."What are talking about ma'am," she says.Mom walked up to her with speed, she raised her hands and while aiming to do the only thing she knows how to do best, I step between and got hit instead of her.
Everyone all sat and ate quietly.It was quiet but not until mom walked out of her room.She rolled down and met us talking at the dining room table."What's going on here,"I turned seeing her standing behind me.She stood at the same spot, refusing to leave.Julia stepped up to bring her inShe takes her hands out but as usual, mom shoved them and walked at her own pace.Ironic.Mom has never once acted well with Boma, and now that her lookalike is here, I'm guessing the same drama is set to continue.My mom isn't going to change.She hasn't changed before and I don't think she's gonna change now
