Read Story: SEASON 1 EPISODE 19
Enita’s POV
Am only trying to save them. I will explain the details to my uncle later. I saw chief Moore rush out in an angry mode.
Awwn… I just spoilt his plans. Old monkey. His head like mango.
“Enita! What are you doing?” Aunt Stella yelled and I stopped what I was doing.
“Aunt Stella, if I tell you this you won’t be able to take it. So only my uncle can understand. It for your own good” I replied.
My uncle furrowed his brow.
I led my uncle to a room and turned to face him.
“Am sure you know about my dreams always coming true. Well, I dreamt of chief Moore poisoning our food. And thats by touching the food with his hands.” I explained, paused amd continued.
“I did that to protect you all. I don’t want any of you to die. Am sorry. But….am hungry” I whispered and held my stomach.
My uncle rolled his eyes and hit me. “Go and eat that one you poured away. Thanks anyway, you saved our lives.
Come let’s go back to the others. We are preparing another meal.” My uncle answered, patting me.
We got to the living room and saw Tony with aunt Stella cleaning the mess.
The others, which are aunt Stella’s dad and her elder sister.
…………………………………………….
We cook another meal which was jollof rice and chicken. I ate till I was full. I decided to go home.
I got to the canteen first and saw Mimi attending to one of my mom’s customers.
She look happy doing that.
Her phone rang and she picked it. Placing the phone on her ear and said. “Hello dad.”
“You’re at home? Alright, am coming” She squeaks.
She must really be close to her dad. She saw me and waved her hand. I walk to her with a smile.
“You’re leaving?” I asked and she nodded.
“My father is back. I will be coming tomorrow. I gotta go.” She replied to me and turned to leave.
With a sigh, I got to my mother who was dishing food for a customer.
“Mama, How’s today’s sales?”
“It good as you can see. I have many customers today. And that beauty, she has been helping me. I wish she shouldn’t go”
My mother said as she gave the food to the customer waiting and collected her money.
“Talking about the beauty, do you really like her?” I inquired.
“Of course! I never hold grudges against her before. I was even surprised when she came to apologize.
Awwn. That melt my heart. If you marry her, thats okay by me. I want to start seeing my grandchildren.” My mom cheered.
“Hmph. Grandchildren. That’d be later. Well, momma, I need to tell you something. I love Mimi but she’s…….” I was cut off.
“But she’s what? She didn’t agree to your proposal? Should I do the proposal for you? That hurt. She turned my son down. She didn’t even pity me. I want grandchildren.” Mother sadly face was down.
“Mom! Are we talking about grandchild now? Forget about that, am not even married yet.” I groaned.
“Then you have to bring a wife home so you can get married and start producing children. You’re getting old” I batted my lashes and mom gave me a scowl look.
“Jesus! Old? How on earth am I getting old? Don’t worry, am bringing a wife home soon.”
“Good. Is brume home? Cause that biy us giving me problem. I thought it was only you that is crazy and stubborn.” She gritted her teeth.
“I brought him home already.” I answered.
…………………………………………………
My mom closed for the day and all of us were at home. I was trying to prepare dinner with my mother.
And brume, he’s in the bathroom, trying to take a bath. He took his bath and came out with pink shirt and a light blue trouser.
I came to the kitchen, winked at me and began helping. While helping, he was checking the time on his wrist watch every minutes.
Where’s he going to?
The food was finally cooked amd we settled down for white rice and banga soup. It was delicious. You can come and eat.
But this one that my brother is checking time. Suddenly, he stood up and left the dining room.
Now I know. He’s going see that girl by this time of the night?
It just 7:21pm!
“Brume, where the f–k are you going? Don’t tell me you want to go and met that girl? Again? By this time of the night?” I half yelled.
“Brother, I promise only this night, I won’t go to see her again at night. Am sure she’s on her way to the stream now. Bye bye, I don’t have time to talk now” He said, and in a flash he’s out.
What?
“Don’t mind him, we know that, when someone is in love, he/she would behave crazy. But brume, he’s running mad. Over madness is doing him.” Mom complained and said she lost her appetite already.
I turned to my dad, he didn’t say anything but kept eating.
Brume, is it true you’re running mad because of love?
Ahh! You better not! I don’t have money to put you in a psychiatric hospital oo.

Mimi’s POV
Next day…….
I woke up with a yawn. Gosh! I really had to sleep late while talking with my father.
I got up and walk to the bathroom to take a bath. I did and came out wearing a orange crop top and white skirt.
I did a little makeup and got up to pick my phone. I walked down stairs and prepared breakfast do me and my dad.
Ohh! I haven’t tell you that, I don’t have a mom. She died when I was young.
Dad came downstairs and ate his.
Four hours later, I walk out of the house to Enita’s house. Yeah! No one around to play or talk with and dad, he’s always busy.
………………………..
I got there and met his mom on her way to the canteen. I help her with the loads with her and she thanked me.
I saw Enita coming too with a mischievous smile on his lips.
“Hey sugar, you’re here. I guess I have someone to play with. You know I love you so much.” He teased.
I knew he was teasing. Like he read my mind.
“Am not teasing. I really love you which you know.” He said again.
I looked up to see his handsome face.
I gulped at what am about to say. “I love you too Enita.” I bit my lips hard. So hard.
