Previously...Femi."More like snitch. If he should talk before trials I don't think we would have to go to court for this." Ama said."I don't like this. I don't like this at all. We're going to see Kola. He's at my parents' house." I said. I really needed to talk to Kola about this absurdity."What I'm meeting your parents now? Can't we plan this?" Ama said."Well it's not a big deal"————Now. Femi. Ama wasn't budging. I glanced at her and she looked pissed as hell. I womdered what the deal was. It was just the parents. I did not believe there was any planning that needed to be attached to it."I don't think i want to go there. You're putting me on the spot. We did not plan to go to your parents' place today." She said."Plans change baby. Plus it is not a big deal i assure you. Besides is it not you that just put me on the spot a few minutes ago in front of Dan. Deciding on something without discussing it with me first." I said. I knew saying it like that was quite petty but i w
Previously…Femi.“Yes, it was Chike.” I said.“What? That scalywag?” My dad exclaimed.“Yes dad” I said.“o mọ ọ? (You know him?)” my mom asked.“Yes he used to work for one of my friends. That stupid boy that ate money omo omugo” he said.“So where are they now?” My mother asked.“In police custody.” I said.“Good and they better stay there. So she’s completely fine I hope?” My dad asked again.“Yeah she is. Completely fine.“Good. ohunkohun ti o jẹ ti o ṣẹlẹ. lo ogbon. maṣe jẹ ki oju inu rẹ gbe ọ lọ, ṣe o ye ọ bi? (what ever it is that is going on. apply wisdom. don’t let the surface of your feelings carry you away, do you understand?)” my dad said.“Yes sir. I’ve heard” I was grateful that my mum swooped in and saved the day because I was about to melt into the ground. I hugged my mum and dad and went to Kola’s apartment.———-Now..Femi POVI went down to Kola’s apartment within the building. It was just a floor down from that of my parents. My parents just had a stair case lea
Previously…Femi.I took out my phone and called his, I waited and when it rang, I started hearing the phone ring in the bedroom. That meant that he didn’t leave the house.“Where the fuck are you man for fuck’s sake” I muttered under my breath.I started walking around the house shouting his name.“Kola! Kola!! Where the hell-”“In here!” I heard him say.He was in the children’s room.What the hell was he doing there?————NowFemi…I entered in the children room and saw Kola looking at a picture and smiling.“Hey bro. What are you doing in here?” I asked Kola.“Oh I was bored and decided to come look at our apartments from when we were kids. Remember when we first came here? We couldn’t believe our eyes.” He said.I sat beside him and smiled. “Oh? Yeah I remember bro. It was really crazy like. We didn’t believe that we would be in a place as nice as this. To think it should have been just you.” I said. Reminiscing on these memories. We had a hard childhood all losing our parents on
Femi.As i made the revelation about our best friend whom Tunde was quite taken by, Kola almost broke down in tears. I knew how much he loved her as a friend and also coupled with the crush."I will have to find her because she does not deserve any of this in the least bit." Kola said."I know right. But i think you should leave it alone. Let Tunde find her. Can he? You know they were a thing, well kind of. But she loved him so much. you know that." I said. "Yeah. i think you're right. Please tell him what you just told me so we can look for her and know how she is doing because i am very sure the family had it really hard. I'm so devastated. How didn't i know this." Kola asked."Because of how out of touch you are like i rightly said before man." I told him."what is the real reason why you came here Kola?" I asked.Kola looked and me and smiled. "I just feel very overwhelmed by a lot you have no idea. I just came here for peace. Let me see if my childlike soul would return. When we
FemiKola and i sat and chatted about our childhood and from this conversation i saw a lot more clearer the fact that Kola loved me even more than himself. I did not know if that was something that what toxic or if it was sweet but i know that countless times i put myself before anybody else but he always sacrificed something for me to be okay and happy.“So why did you come here and where is my good sister?” Kola said.I chuckled “not her being your sister now I never thought I’d live to see the day.” I said.“Of course she’s my good sister. You’re marrying her. Plus it would be a good addition to the family considering you know what. I miss her though.” Kola said.Him mentioning our sister brought tears to our eyes. She was part of the reason why this house became a home to us. We were shy but she made us feel like family. The reason why we were adopted was because of the tragedy that happened with her little brother. Our mother was so devastated by his death by drowning in the scho
Femi.Him mentioning our sister brought tears to our eyes. She was part of the reason why this house became a home to us. We were shy but she made us feel like family. The reason why we were adopted was because of the tragedy that happened with her little brother. Our mother was so devastated by his death by drowning in the school swimming pool. Apparently he was pushed in by bullies and couldn't swim so he drowned. The bullies were arraigned in juvenile prison until they were of age to be transferred to the normal one. The person who pushed him in specifically got seventy years to life, while the people who were accomplices got forty years each. They all are still in prison. That Justice however didn't heal our mother. That was her only son and there were a lot of factors affecting her mental health. Family issues and inheritance. My father's sister was insufferable. To make our mother happy, our father had to suggest adopting a boy around his age. He was thirteen years old. They cam
Femi."Anyways our property inspection process was cut short because we went to the POSSAP station and met with your friend Dan. We didn't call you to come because of your condition. You're still resting and I would want you to cut that short because of our issues." I said to Kola.Kola shook his head "Bro, it is my issue too. Who started the fire that burned me up like this?" He asked."I understand but you still needed that rest nonetheless." I said."Okay I get where you're coming from sha." Kola said and gestured for me to continue."So when we got there she started feeling a bit antsy. Irregular breathing and her looking around like someone was coming for her. She was scared. She more than likely has ptsd from what happened and her knowing that the people who perpetuated that evil on her were in her surroundings probably or most likely triggered her almost having that panic attack. We opted that she stayed out of it because she felt uncomfortable. This was after I had gotten Ife'
Previously…I sighed and shook my head. I didn't know I was holding my breath because I just wanted to be sure that I was not making a fuss out of nothing. The plea deal being given to Chike was absolutely ridiculous."It is. It's ridiculous. I really hoped you would see reason with me. But you know yeah, I was ready to give in to it. She was the one who went through that shit and if she deemed it fit to let him get a lighter sentence because he was not directly after her life, I actually had no problems with that. Where the problem lies with me now is that she didn't even think to consult me before telling Dan. I should have had a choice in the matter or at least input in the issue but she decided not to tell me anything." I said.Kola shook his head "Femi. I'll tell you this for free sha. It's not a big deal. She didn't tell you, so what? It's not like she went to get a lawyer to start the plea deal process. Dan can't even get the plea deal if he wanted to. He's in special services
