The Identity Chapter Ten
Ike’s povIt’s been more than five minutes since Joy went to the bathroom and still, there was no sign of her. Ike was becoming worried and wondered what was happening. Could she have been kidnapped? "Nah," he said to himself, he had security men positioned all over the mall, they wouldn’t let get her kidnapped and would have surely alerted him if that was the case. But why is she not here? He stood up and went outside the viewing room. The security men were still standing in their position.“Have you seen Joy”? Ike asked one of the security men“She went to get popcorn” The security replied “Popcorn? I thought she wanted to have a pee,'' Ike said, panicking already.“She told us that”Ike bolted past them, running downstairs towards where popcorn was being sold with the security men running behind him. Oh God, he hoped she was fine. With everything happening right now, he won’t forgive himself if anything happens to her. He stopped at the popcorn place

Ada's povAda felt the weight of the man on her body. She was panicking and struggling to get him off her body. She kept screaming for help but no one would come.“Stop wasting your time,” The man said “No one will come, just hold still let me kiss you”He tried to force a kiss on her, but she was struggling to get him off her. He was racked with alcohol and was very drunk. Who was he? Ada wondered how he got the keys to her room. She thought a big hotel like this would at least be secured. She managed to get away from him and quickly switched on the room light. She ran towards her bag and grabbed the paper spray she had inside, without thinking twice, she sprayed it on him. He let out a painful scream, struggling to see clearly.“Who are you and what do you want?” Ada asked, shaking “You witch, do you want to get me blind?” The man shouted angrily.Ada stood there thinking about how crazy the man sounded, how could he still be so arrogant after he tried for

Ike’s povIke could hear faith arguing with Olu about not letting her enter the house. He gave instructions saying he did not want to be disturbed, but somehow he can’t seem to get away from her. I sighed, got up and went towards the noise. Faith was a little light in his dark world. She was his side piece and somehow he was very fond of her. She was the one who would satisfy his sexual pleasures whenever his wife refused him, which was all their marriage time, although he made sure he paid her back by taking care of her bills and flying her to different countries for vacation. The luxurious lifestyle she was living was funded by him. He wondered why she came running this late at night. She usually comes when he asks her to come, which is when his wife is not at home or he sees her outside of his house.The argument stopped. He got to the sitting room. Ike’s eyes looked lustfully at Faith, God!! He needs it now badly, especially since joy had refused him earlier in the day. His eyes re

Ada's povAda was not sure if she was just tired or really disappointed in how the room looked. She was not expecting much but what she was standing inside of was not a place any human could stay. The room was full of dust, the curtains looked so dirty like they had not been washed for days, the bed was not laid, the air conditioner seemed to be malfunctioning and to top it off, the television in the room was not working. Ada tried her best to not cry. Maybe it was a mistake to have left Ike. She has tasted the good life and now she can’t seem to adjust back to the kind of life she lived all her life. The truth was, this room was better than the house which she grew up in and shared with her other siblings, father and stepmother, but why does she suddenly feel irritated about being in a place like this? She never wanted to feel like she was better or better than what she actually was, but she would not help but feel sorry for herself. She opened the door and went back to the reception

Ike’s povIke and his security men got to the guest inn by 7 pm. He was disgusted by how poorly the guest inn looked from the outside. He wondered how it would look on the inside.“This place looks a mess,” Ike said, “What in the world is she doing here?”“probably has to do with the money, I bet it’s very cheap”.Ike could not understand why his wife would prefer to stay in a place like this and not in their mansion. He was standing in front of a shabby looking building. It was already dark but he could see the building clearly due to the security lights that were on for obvious reasons. He gestured for the other two security men to stand outside and wait for him to return as he and Alex walked into the guest inn. To Ike's surprise, there was no one at the reception desk “Where is everybody? Should there not be someone at this desk?” Ike asked, confused “There should be, I wonder where they are?’ Alex replied.Just the two of them were trying to figure out what was going on, the e

Ada's povAda could not believe what was happening to her. The young man was on her, grabbing her breast and trying to force a kiss on her. She could not help but scream. She kept screaming as his hands moved recklessly on her body.“keep quiet, stop screaming” he scolded “Let me go, are you trying to rape me?'' Ada said furiously. She wished she could hit him with something. He was sexually assaulting her and nobody was close enough to save her.“Somebody help” she screamed That came with a slap across her face. The pain on her face felt worse than her fear. It was like someone had hit her with an iron hand across her face.“If you don’t shut up, I will hit you again and this time very hard”“Please let me go, please I don't have any money,” Ada said sobbing. She was tired of the constant trouble that had been following her for the past few days. Was this a punishment from God for lying and being with someone who was not her husband? God was definitely punishing her for her sins.Sh

Ike's povStanding in front of his flatscreen TV, Ike watched in shock as a figure on the screen spoke. He wondered where the insane theory was coming from.The figure on TV was a short man with a rounded and dotted nose. The man was granted an interview with the news station to slander his name. Ike could not believe the words that were coming out of his mouth. He went on live TV accuses him of being a ritualist, stating that he wanted to use his wife as a human sacrifice to gain more money and power. The man alleged that Ike had planned to crash the plane his wife was on and also the car bomb blast which all failed. Ike watched in total disbelief as the man said“I think it is time for us to let honest people be in the position of the Senate President of the house of assembly and Paul Okoko has promised to eliminate such people like Ike and put in the right people in such position. They do not need an occult member in such a place”.Ike was furious at the audacity of Paul to make

He was sitting on his favourite chair in the parlour and just when he was about to close his eyes he heard a voice calling his namekm, knowing exactly who was calling him he said “What is it moma?” He normally calls the cook moma, especially when he does not want to call her by her name.“It's your wife,” Mrs Okonkwo said, “She is in my kitchen cooking”“It is also her kitchen,” Ike said, he knew how much his cook hates anyone doing the cooking but her. “She is the madam of this house,'' Ike added.“Well, I am the madam of the kitchen.

Ike’s PovConfusion and shock washed over Ike as he witnessed Ade and some guys being handcuffed, emerging from the building where Ada had been held captive. He rushed toward them, eager to unravel the unfolding situation.“Hey, why are you handcuffing my friend? Shouldn't you be going after the kidnappers?” he asked, bewildered.Linda looked at him with pity. “He is the kidnapper.”“I don't understand,” Ike said, glancing at Ade. “He is my best friend; he can't do that to me. Would you?”Ade did not answer; he only stared at Ike with intense hatred before being taken away. Ike remained in shock, grappling with the betrayal of his best friend. Hurt and on the verge of tears, he held himself together. From the corner of his eyes, he saw Ada walking up to him. They locked eyes for a few moments before he grabbed her and kissed her, feeling her respond to the kiss.“I love you,” he said after their kiss. “I mean those three words and eight letters.”“Are you sure? What about your
The Identity Chapter Fifty
Ada PovAwakening in what appeared to be a dimly lit room, she realized she was securely tied to a chair. It took no time for her to comprehend that she had been kidnapped. Ada struggled to free herself from the chair, attempting to calm down and focus all her thoughts on devising an escape plan.She examined the room, hoping to find anything that might assist her, her mind wandering to how she ended up in this predicament. If she hadn't pretended to be someone she wasn't, she was certain she wouldn't be in this mess now. Shifting her thoughts from the chaos she was in, she pondered on Ike. Oh, how she missed him. Sitting there, she yearned to see him again, even if it were the last time. Knowing in her heart that he might never forgive her for what she did, whether she emerged from this ordeal alive or not, she was determined to confess her feelings and true identity to him. She believed that if he discovered she was the Ada from his secondary school who once dated him, he might un

Ike’s POVIke brushed past his wife and went upstairs to his room. He went to his bathroom and had his bath. While dressing up, he felt like he needed to talk to Joy and lay down some rules for her; she can’t go about talking to people in his house that way. She was very rude to his parents last night, which made him very upset. He needed to talk to her about that too; she needs to show his parents some respect. He was the man of the house, and she needs to do what he asks of her.Dressed up, he planned to go over to Ade’s house. He needed to pour out his heart to him, moved towards his wife’s room. As he was about to enter the room, he heard her having a conversation with someone. Out of curiosity, he decided to eavesdrop on her conversation, then heard her say, “That fool, he bought my story. He thought that some man rescued me from the plane incident. He does not know that I was with you, that I never went to the airport.” He heard her laugh; all this while she had a lover and she
The Identity Chapter Forty-eight
Ada's PovAda sat at the back of the car, unable to stop herself from crying, thinking of the look in Ike’s eyes when she told him who she really was. She wished she could turn back time and do things differently. Seeing a sample blouse in a shop, she wanted to cheer up. She stopped the driver and went into the shop. She left the house without any clothes or shoes, only the purse Ike had once bought her, which had the bank ATM card tied to the account he opened for her after the plane incident. She lied to him, claiming she couldn't remember her password, and, not wanting to go to the bank, he opened another account for her. Her phone was also in the purse. After explaining everything to Linda over a call, Linda comforted her and gave her the address to her apartment, which she had just bought and never stayed in, but was willing to let Ada stay there. Ada was happy to still have a friend in Linda. She took a deep breath and walked into the shop.Benito's PovBenito saw his opportunit

Ike’s POVIke found himself in a bewildering situation, staring at two women claiming to be his wife. His mind was a whirlwind of confusion, unsure if he was experiencing some surreal illusion or if reality was playing a cruel game on him."Who are you?" he managed to utter, directing his question to the lady standing at the door."What?" Joy snapped angrily. "You don't know me again? And who the hell are you?" Joy glared at Ada, demanding an explanation.Ike turned to Ada, desperation in his eyes. "Explain this," he implored, his thoughts scrambled and emotions in turmoil."Who is that?" Joy demanded, seeking clarity."What is happening here?" Mma voiced her confusion."You really are dull," Joy scoffed at Ike's mother. "This girl," she pointed at Ada, "is impersonating me."Ike, still grappling with the surreal scene, looked at Ada, anticipating an explanation for this bizarre situation."I am sorry," Ada uttered tearfully. "I am not Joy. My name is Ada Okoli. I sneaked onto

Linda's PovLinda returned to the office after spending some time with Ada. It was still weird to know Joy as Ada, but she really did not care who Ada was; that’s her friend, and she was going to stick with her either way. She only hopes that Ada does the right thing by telling Ike.“Ma, we found something,” Musa's voice rang inside her brain.“What? How?” she asked.“We got the numbers of people from their registration book that bought that kind of gun from the last gun shop we went to, just like we did for the rest. One of the men said he sold it to someone else, but the registration on the gun still has his name. We asked for the number of the person he sold it to, and luckily he had it. We traced the number, and it was registered under one Benito Dam. He is an ex-convict, and nobody seems to know where he lives. It looks like he has software blocking where his location is, but we managed to trace it. I think this is the guy we have been looking for.”“Put someone on him now. I

Ada’s PovAda has been at Ike's parents' house for over two hours. It was past three in the afternoon, and she had been chatting with them since she entered the house. She couldn't wait to go home, not because she wasn't enjoying his parents' company but because she missed Ike."Maybe you should sleep here today," Mma Nnenna said."I would love to, but I have to go back home to Ike; he needs me. The people on the internet are tearing him apart," Ada replied. "Plus, I don't have any excuse to give Ike for not coming back home tonight.""You don't need an excuse; you are my daughter-in-law.""I know, Mum, but I want to be with Ike," Ada said. She really did not want to leave Ike on his own; he had a lot of hate comments on the internet, and she wanted to make sure he was okay."How do you feel about this whole Mary video?" Mma asked."I don't know; she did that for whatever reason. I am not bothered by it. Ike said she helped him get a room at the hotel because he was very drunk a

Mary's POV"So you admit to sexually harassing me?" Mary heard Ike ask. The tone of his voice put her off; he sounded like he was happy she said that, but she was not going to lose in this conversation."Yes, I do. I admit it. That was my chance to get you, and I used it," Mary remembered that night clearly. She was already making out with him in the taxi car on their way to the hotel before anything else. It was clear that Ike did not remember that part, and she wanted to taunt him further."In fact, I was already making out with you in the taxi; you seemed to have enjoyed it." Mary felt satisfied when she saw the look on his face; he was shocked. She did not care about what he had to say; she did not regret what she did. She currently has the advantage and will not give up on the love of her life."What? You did what?" Ike asked in panic."You heard me right; there is no way anyone will believe I did that to you. Just divorce your wife and come to me." Mary did not care if he ha
The Identity Chapter Forty-Three
Linda’s POVLinda was shocked to hear what Joy had said. Is she not Joy? Then who the hell is she? Has everything after their friendship been a lie? She tried to compose herself.“What do you mean by that?” Linda asked, still shocked.“I mean that I am not Joy Nnenna; my name is Ada Okoli.”Linda was very confused; she could not believe what she was hearing.“Why did you lie that you were Joy, then?”“I didn’t lie. Joy was in the same plane as me before the plane had an issue and the pilot did a forced landing. The people who came looking for Joy thought I was the one because we looked alike. My friend who I was on the plane with convinced me to agree and say I was she. The rest is what you see happening.”“You know you can go to jail for this, right?”Ada said nothing; she just nodded her head in agreement. Linda felt bad for her friend, although she did not understand why she was being told this secret.“Why are you telling me this?”“Because you are my friend, and I am tir
