EPISODE 5

Ezinne's heart was in her mouth as she kept staring.

Her face instantly was shadowed in deep misery and the whole world immediately went blank before her eyes.

She made efforts to stop weeping but she couldn't.

She made her way to her room and packed her clothes in the luggage.

"Mama you wouldn't have slapped her" I said.

"She deserves more than that" Mama retorted...

Ezinne came out with her visage like a wet week-end...

She made her way out of the portal made of iron door while mama and I bursted into laughter.

"She lacks good home training" Mama muttered grinning like a Cheshire cat.

"Yes,her mother died when she was six" I replied.

"She needs to learn intensively, because with this behavior,she can't fend with her husband when she finally gets married" Mama said with a low voice –not thunderous.

"I pray she learns how to manage a home" I responded thoughtfully and we continued watching the interesting movie.

Few hours later,Ben came back with lots of gifts.

I was surprised when he handed the polythene bag over to me.

"I am sorry Obi m, please forgive me" He said, touching my jaw with his fingers and kíssed me gently.

I was over the moon because the Ben I knew had come back.

Mama's mug was full of great smiles and she left us to converse heartily in the sitting room.

"I love you Obi m" Ben said showing his white dentition.

"I love you too. Carry your child and talk to her,she is your carbon copy" I uttered and smirked brightly.

Ben ignored and asked me to come over to the bedroom when I am done that he needed to freshen up.

I was perplexed "what are you really saying? This is your child Ben. Meanwhile,you haven't asked of your sister" I said struck dumb.

"Yes,she called and said she had gone back to school" Ben said bouncing off the walls.

"I would be waiting for you Obi m" he added

Ben left the sitting room and mama came and saw me bewildered.

"What happened Mezuo?" She queried

"Ben refused to talk to his child" I answered.

Mama chuckled and said "Maybe he is drained,–I think he needs some rest".

I nodded positively at what mama said because I found it reasonable.

Two weeks later, when Mama had left us.

Ben and I were very happy with each other but each time I mention my child to him,his face would always be full of fury.

I begged him to dedicate our child to God but he utterly refused.

In his words,he said "She is a girl,she is not worth dedicating. I won't spend my money on her.

When he said this, I kept cogitating wistfully"Who gave birth to this man? Were you born by a sheep?" I said in my mind.

I did not ask him this questions because It would have caused a fight.

Our pastor came and preached as much as he could for this child to be sacralized but Ben bluntly rejected.

I was scared Ben might strangle this child one day to death because the hatred was enormous.

Few days later,I opted to dedicate my child by myself: which I did and Ben was cheesed off.

I did not care about his rants because What I did was very right.
