My Babies

Read Story: SEASON 1 EPISODE 4

I felt a soft touch

Opened my eyes, and I saw my mum

Are you giving up already??

What of your kids??

They killed Kelly I said crying

And Nelly??

You don’t want her no more??

You don’t want to fight for her??

Have you forgotten how you carried her for months??

You want to die just like his first wife??

You want them to continue this evil, atrocious and barbaric act??

You can do this…

I know you can!!

I can’t…

I lost an eye already, lost a daughter… What am I living for??

Nelly

she’s all you’ve got now

That baby deserves to live

It’s a pity she was fathered by a monster

I can’t do it alone…

You can my daughter

You can do it

I want your daughter to be proud of you someday

Make them pay for killing Kelly

Open your eyes you stubborn woman

Enough of the sleep, it’s time to get back to business ken said

So, mum is not here… It was all in my head

I know I saw my mum I said amidst tears

All what my mum said in my unconscious state came playing in my head

I suddenly felt so strong

I was no longer scared… I was ready to face Ken and his mother to get my child

His mum brought out a morter and pestle, put Kelly’s body and started pounding, while ken was going round her saying some incarnations

Oh my God!!

I started throwing up… What kind of humans are these??

Yet again, I felt defeated!!!

I was crying like a baby

Did you not give her the food??

Why is she throwing up?? His mother said looking at me with so much anger

Ken started stammering.. I wanted to, but she was unconscious

Go give her the food

He brought something that looks like a human heart

He started cutting it into pieces…

He asked me to pick them and eat….

I refused!!!.

He kept hitting and slapping me without mercy, but I still refused

He dropped the knife to force me…

Immediately he dropped the knife, I picked it and stabbed him on the leg

He let out a loud cry

I was scared of killing him, that was why I opted for his leg

I hope I don’t regret not killing him now I said under my breath

He was groaning in pains…

I know mama would be easy to get rid of, so I walked to her fuming

She was visibly scared!!

I collected the pestle from her,and hit ken who was already in so much pains

He passed out..

I quickly picked my child and ran out to get my phone

I was soaked in blood from the injury on my eye

Where is my phone??

Where is the f.u.c.k.I.n.g phone I said crying

The car…. Yes, I left it there

I ran to the car, picked my phone and dialed Ella’s number

Pick your call Ella

Pick your call please

She wasn’t picking…

I called again,

Hello Ella I need your he..l.

I felt a sharp pain on my head

I turned and saw ken and his mother smiling

He hit me with same pestle I used on him….

Mama collected Nelly

Ken started dragging me back to the house

I was weak, couldn’t shout nor free myself

Oga!! Oga!!

I heard our gateman call out to him

Thank God, I said weakly… Help has finally come I whispered

Yes?? You never see husband and wife wey they fight before ken asked him

Sorry Sir, he said and stood there watching

Sorry for yourself

That was how he dragged me back to the house

You want to kill me right, he asked holding my head so tight

He stabbed me on the leg relentlessly again and again and was laughing… He was acting mad

His mother had to stop him

I was lying there almost dead

I couldn’t help myself anymore

That was it!!

It is all over

They WON again!!!

Give me my child let me hold just once before I die, I said crying

No… Die a painful death mama said

Nelly was crying…

I closed my ears because it was tormenting me …

I am helpless baby

I am meant to protect you, but I am a wicked mother

I couldn’t save your sister and now you…

I was in so much pains

Father, forgive me of all my sins and welcome me to your kingdom

I said my last prayers on earth and waited for the worst

Take her back to the room mama instructed..

Ken started dragging me back to the room then we heard a knock on the door…

Who could it be??

I am sure it is that foolish gateman, ken said angrily

He walked to the door, opened and was shocked!!

Ella!!!!

I shouted at the top of my voice

Miracles still happen

I wanted running to go meet her, but I was seriously injured

I saw the shock on Ella’s face seeing me in such a condition

Don’t go close to her, ken said

He started crying…

I don’t know what happened to my wife

She woke up this morning and started hurting herself

I tried stopping her, but she stabbed me on the leg

No, no!!!

It’s not true, they are evil

They want to kill me and my children…

I mean, they already killed Kelly…

Go to the room and check what they did??

I was shouting at the top of my voice

Mama also started crying too….

I don’t know what happened to your Friend

she said also faking a cry

She killed her other daughter, we had to forcefully collect Nelly

I noticed the fear on Ella’s face

She started crying…

She was scared to come close to me

Let me go get my stuffs, so I can come stay with my Friend…

She’s the only friend I’ve got and I don’t want anything to happen to her she said crying

Ella, don’t go please, they will kill me if you do

Believe me, I am not mad!!

She turned, why not take her to the hospital??

Will she insist they take me to the hospital??
