The Yoruba Demons Chapter Eighty Six; Little Time
Previously…Ama."Fems?" I said. I needed him to come closer. He did come closer and took my hand in his rapidly "Hey babe" he said. He looked sad. He seemed stunned to see me awake but that was all I could decipher. I decided to ask him the questions I had."What is this... I mean I know I'm in a hospital but why am I here and why do I feel so much pain..?" I asked him. I needed to know because even though I probably looked calm. I was freaking out on the inside. I didn't want to alarm him and with the way he was handling this, he obviously didn't want to alarm me too.I tried to sit up but the searing pain held me back down. I exclaimed in pain and held my side,"Easy babe, easy" Femi said and helped me relax on the bed. I waited until the pain subsided before I spoke again."So what's happening? What am I doing here?" I asked again."Babe. All that matter is that you are awake now. I will brief you in the morning. You need to get some sleep okay. I know you're exhausted." He said.

Previously…Femi."Yeah, yeah she is" I said. I was quite exhausted so I was very sure that I wasn't showing any emotion."Okay. Okay I'll wait then. Meanwhile Radike already went to check her kidney out. I came with her." He said. "Oh okay that's good. Let's just hope for the best then." I said.I stood up and turned to Ama. "I'm going to go and try to get some food for us. Ama must be starving. Those tubal foods are disgusting. I just didn't want to leave Ama alone but since you're here I'll rush to the restaurant and buy her some food" I said. Matthew nodded and sat down."You want anything?" I asked on my way out."No I'm alright. I ate before coming. Radike made sure of that." He said. I walked towards the door before Matthew stopped me "Femi""Yes?" I said and turned back to face him."Thank you for really looking after my sister. You're a real one." He said.I smiled "well, I'm glad you see that now."He smiled back at me and without a word, I left the room.I was about leavi

Previously...Ama.I got into my room being pushed by a nurse while sitting in a wheelchair and saw my brother and Tola my friend from the other office holding flowers."Hey Tee." I said grinning. I missed Tola so much. He probably was the one who replaced me in the office as my brother replaced him because there was no other person to fill his spot. It was so good to see him."Hey babe. Look at you. You're still pretty." He said sarcastically and we shared a hug. The nurse helped me into the bed and left the room."So these are for you from our boss. Mr Shawn has been really worried since he heard and sent me to pick these up for you." Tola said.I took the flowers from him and smelt them. They smelt extraordinarily wonderful. "These smell so good. Thank you. Besides who even told you guys that I was here?" "Tunde told Shawn and Shawn told me. They said it was kidney failure?" He said. Worry now washing over his face."Yeah. They don't know if a donor can be found. My brother isn't

Previously...Ama."Matthew..." I said in a warning tone.He sighed "I think you should ask Femi."I frowned. I was getting pissed. I had suspected that they were hiding something but now I was darn sure. "What do you mean by that and where is Femi Anyways?" "He went to get you some food." My brother answered."Okay so, start talking" I ordered him. Something was not right."About what? I don't know anything. The Doctor tells Femi everything." Matthew said, still not meeting my eyes."We both know that's a blatant lie. Matthew do you think this is a fucking joke?" I snapped in annoyance "My life is literally hanging on by a thread. I have two bad kidneys and to crown it all the people who I love most are hiding things about my own health from me." I said and he gave me a side glare. "Yes I know that you guys re hiding something okay. The explanation was too vague to go unnoticed. Now tell me what it is!" Matthew sighed and stayed silent for a few seconds before finally speaking agai

Previously…Femi.I walked to her room and all of a sudden I saw Matthew storming out."Hey Matt what's wrong?" I asked him but he ignored my question and strode past me.Looked in the direction he went and then looked ahead to Ama's ward. "I wonder what that was about.Did he get into an argument with Ama or Radike? I decided to go and find out.I opened the door and walked in to see Ama laughing with Radike. It was good to see that she was in high spirits."Hey baby" I smiled and walked deeper. I went and planted a soft kiss on high lips."How are you? And hey Radike." I said and Radike smiled."I'm fine. That's a huge trolley you have there" Ama said."Well I got you some food and some things you might need while you're here." I said and started removing things from the cart."Okay... good timing. I'm very hungry. Did you get water?" She asked."Yes I did, you want some?" I asked.She sighed "Yeah"I brought out a bottle of water from the carton and gave it to her. "Williams do you

Previously...Femi."Baby, you need to eat." I said trying to make her see reasons why she should eat. This was how it had been for a few days. She wouldn't touch any food. Even if she did, she would not eat up to half. She had already shed a lot of weight due to the illness and had started becoming pale. It scared the shit out of me. "I'm not hungry Femi leave me alone" she responded. She laid on her side facing the wall while I held a plate of Chinese rice and chicken. She loved it. But now she was being difficult."Ama come on you need to eat to have strength okay. Plus your meds...""I don't want the food and I don't want the meds. Leave me alone" she snapped."Arrrrhh Baby. Would you at least talk to me about what's eating you up?" I said in frustration.She didn't reply. I let out a sigh, there was a lot of tension. The last thing I wanted was to argue with her in her condition. I didn't want to hurt her or raise her blood pressure.I sighed again and stood up. "I'm gonna leav

Previously...Femi.Radike was being defensive for no reason. Who cared if it did it or not . The only people I felt that I had to convince were my parents and Kola. Tunde didn't need much convincing. Kola was a control freak and I knew he would try to stop me."I'm not talking about that because okay if that's the reason then by all means, knock yourself out. But it's Ama that I'm concerned about. She's been going on and on about how she doesn't want us to be the donors. She won't let you do it." Radike highlighted."Then we don't tell her. I'm not going in for the surgery with her anyways. She won't know till after the surgery when we are both awake. She can roast me then I don't fucking care," I said. I had thought about this subject prior to this. I knew she was anti close donors. She wanted someone who she didn't have sentimental attachments for. She didn't want us dying on her account. Did I care about that? No. We just needed to hide the news from her. She didn't have to know i

Previously…Femi.I saw Radike coming down the stairs when I got out. She walked faster to me when she saw that I was approaching."Hey, what's happening. Why do you look so sad?" She asked."Well first of all, I um, Yeah what about Ama. You're coming from there right?" I asked her. That was the first thing on my mind.Radike sighed "yeah, she's the same as she's always been. Um she still hasn't eaten." She told me.I smiled "well, maybe she'll eat when you tell her that we finally found a match.""Really?" Radike said expressing joy on her face."Yeah." I said with a grin."Oh thank God!!" She exclaimed.She stopped and looked at me in the eyes. My smile waned. "Wait a fucking minute. It's you isn't it. You just went to run the tests now." She said. She was always the observant one."Yeah it's me. Why are you acting surprised. You knew that i would do it if I was a match because let's face it. What other choice do we have?" I said.Her face became sad “I know. But Ama won’t like this

Ama.The day had ended. I felt giddy to go home and tell Femi all that happened today. My dream was being fulfilled before my very eyes. I was living in it. I really appreciated Femi's dad for giving me this opportunity. I was very grateful.Femi texted me, telling me he was downstairs and I ran into the elevator without knowing, meeting Tola there. "Ha, hey bestie... why are you running like that?" He said with an amused look on his face."Running ke, me? Never" I said, feigning ignorance of what I just unknowingly did."It's only man that will make you that excited. Femi is here isn't he?" He said.I folded "Yes he is." I rolled my eyes "I'm just happy to finally see him that's all. He's been MIA throughout today." I said."Ahn ahn why?" Tola asked."Well he's been in a meeting and I get it you know. Today is his first day at work since the transplant so I understand. They were probably doing an organizational meeting of some sorts." I said."Okay I get it. Anyways how are you enjo

Femi.I felt so bad for not answering my fiancée. I looked and saw a text from her. “Hey, I know you’re probably busy. You wouldn’t believe what just happened. I’m so happy. Gahhhh call me when you can. Ly x” the text said.I didn’t want to dampen her own mood in any way. She seemed very happy about what was going on around her. I was still sad and emotionally downcast and I knew if I spoke to her in this mood she was going to leave everything she was doing and appear in my office. I would really appreciate her presence now but I also didn’t want to spoil her happiness. I decided to text her saying that I was going to be in a long meeting and I would come pick her up when she’s ready to go. She texted back for acknowledgement. I dropped my phone and sighed, placing my head in my hand. I seemed to be doing that a lot.In my mind, I was trying to picture how this woman could even be remotely related to me. I had to keep telling myself “my parents are dead”. Whoever this woman was, she

Femi.Today was a good day. I was very giddy while entering the office and it wasn't even about anything that I did or was going to do. I was just very glad that Ama was finally getting her flowers. It was vivid in my mind how she would always talk my ears full on how many ideas she has for the Lays project even when it was not set in stone that she was going to handle it with Kechi industries. She had so much passion for this that i knew she was going to do very well with it.As i walked into the office i was greeted by the front desk representative and before i could leave the lobby she said "There's someone here to see you sir. She said she is your mother." She said.I frowned. My mother never came here before. It was strange that she was here. "Okay where is she?" I asked. I hoped for her sake that she didn't send my 'mother' to my office."The conference room" she said. I sighed and walked in to my office first to drop my laptop and gadgets before going downstairs back to the con

Ama."So, the Lays project was actually suggested by me for business continuity. We were brainstorming for strategies to have more leverage in the manufacturing market and I came up with this. We already have a deal with Pepsi who are the primary owners of the Lays brand. It is such a big brand in the US. Now we have to latch on to the brand more to be able to keep our relationship. We already have the Quaker Oats deal because we asked them for it and that is why Quaker Oats is no longer an imported brand. Now is the time to take Lays. This will mean that Lays would be cheaper here in Nigeria and would make more sales, generating revenue for the company. We need to design the product and pitch it to Pepsi for approval and rights." I said. Once I was done with my speech, there was a roaring thunderous ovation for me. Even the HR manager who looked scornfully at me before was ecstatic. I felt good indeed."Any questions?" I said once I was done with my presentation. I had shown them a c

Ama.The meeting went from project to project until it finally got to my turn. The Lays Project. Shawn smiled when he saw it. He had texted me before today that I had to come and defend the project in front of the board. They had approved it but wanted to know if I knew what I was doing. They are very unserious because I was the one who came up with this idea so what more did they want? I however, tried to study what had already been rendered and made slides to display what I was about to say.I stood up and walked over to the front of the conference room and started my presentation. I was looking around at the faces before I started and my eyes landed on Shawn. He gave me a small smile and a nod. I felt more confident as I was feeling nervous before.

Previously...Femi."Wait I actually told the doctor to still do the test with the fetus they removed. I know it's dark sided but I don't want to be beriddled with grief that's not mine to bear. Because I think it's my fault. If I wasn't shagging some girl and actually answered the phone on time maybe they could have saved the baby you know." Tunde said."There was no way that you could have known," I said."How long till the test comes out?" Kola asked."By tomorrow." Tunde said."So calm the fuck down. If the baby is really yours then you can now cry as much as you want but I am sure that the baby isn't yours. That girl is a slimy snake." Kola said.. "As for you, I will call Dad's therapist. You need to get yourself straight after the damn drug use." Kola said."Okay. I don't want dad to know though" Tunde said."He won't know don't worry. Therapists don't snitch on their clients. Even if Dad will definitely know you're seeing the therapist, he won't know why and think it's for your

Femi.Tunde just stood there staring at us but we didn’t waver. We had to intervene. Tunde did not look good in any capacity at all.“Tunde you need to speak.” I said after a while of silence.“Why? Why do you guys think that something is wrong with me?” Tunde said while twitching, even though I doubted it before now I was sure that he was using.“God! Tunde where did you get the drugs from!” Kola yelled, he was not having it. Tunde was getting irritated now.I held Kola’s shoulder. “If you come at him like that he won’t say anything,” I said to him.I looked at Tunde, “The reason why we think you have a problem is this,” I pointed at his appearance,“You’re really insecure about your hairline but your hair is growing out, you never let that happen for anything. You didn’t even wear a cap to cover it. You’re dressed like a homeless person. Shirt not tucked in, tie loose, clothes rumpled. No suit on a Monday morning that’s very unlike you.” I said.“And let’s not forget the uncontrolla

Previously…Femi."Well after all this it seems like I have to get an executive assistant because the work is plenty. I need someone to keep track. This just means that our company is growing day by day and I am proud of everyone and the work they have put into this while I was away. Thank you so much. Speaking of our company growing, it may seem as though we have made enough money for us to raise salaries. You all have done a wonderful job. I will liaise with HR. Expect those emails." I said. Everyone cheered and I liked to see smiles on their faces. They would only be happy to work for us when they are happy with the benefits they get.Once the meeting ended we cornered Tunde in the conference room, just the three of us and I used my phone to shut off the surveillance cameras so that we could effectively speak to our nit wit brother.———-Femi.“Oya what is going on with you, quickly.” Kola said.“I don’t understand why you guys are attacking me like this” Tunde replied. I noticed h
