MY UNCLE’S WIFE AND I
EPISODE 13
After i finished talking to Agnes on phone, I rushed to take my shower.
And then i dressed up beautifully in case i see nnamdi so I would look pretty to him.
I went downstairs and sat down to have my breakfast.
While I was eating, a maid came towards me and told me she saw nnamdi leaving the house at the early hours of the morning.
When she said that, I quickly went to his room upstairs to see things for myself.
I got to nnamdi’s room and opened his wardrobe and discovered it was almost empty.
Where has this boy gone to, could it be that he has gone to the village?….I asked myself aloud.
Let it not be that he has gone to the village oh, ….I said to myself.
I lost my appetite for food that day because I wasn’t happy nnamdi left the house.
I didn’t even have his number i would have called him to know his whereabouts.
The next day afternoon, Agnes came to my house as promised, and while we were discussing, she brought something from her bag.
Ehen Caro here’s what I was talking about on phone yesterday….she said handing it to me.
What is its works?….I asked staring at it.
caro, this thing you are holding is very strong oh, just a little from it will do the job.
So Agnes you mean a little from this thing would make ?…..I asked.
Exactly nne, I got many of it when I traveled with my husband to London.
I stared at the little thing in my hands and i made a smile.
Thank you so much Agnes, I believe nnamdi won’t over come this one….I said laughing.
Of course he won’t, just add a little of it to anything he is taking and you will see the magic….Agnes said laughing.
I joined Agnes in laughing and then i remembered something.
But there’s something happening now oh…..I said looking sad.
What is it again nne?…..agnes asked.
Since yesterday morning, nnamdi has not been in this house, he left with some of his belongings and I don’t know if he had gone back to the village….I said looking sad.
And you could not call your husband to report to him?….. Agnes asked.
I don’t want to bother my husband, and what if my husband asked me the reason for his absence in this house, what would I say?
Call your husband, and tell him his nephew left because you cau*ght him trying to st£al your money and he ra*n away.
Haba na agnes that li*e it’s too expensive, what if my husband asked me to forget about the money and nnamdi?
Then you would have convince your husband to call his nephew to come back to this house that you need him around because the house is too bo*r£d for you.
You have a point there agnes, i will do that as soon as possible, thank you so much.
Agnes left my house after much talks with her and immediately she left, i rushed to call my husband obinna.
I called obinna telling him that I didn’t know the location of nnamdi his nephew.
He asked why did nnamdi left and i li£d to him that nnamdi has refused to eat at the dinning and he also doesn’t want to talk to me.
When I tried to confront him, he left angrily insu*lting me….I said to obinna.
So you mean nnamdi d@r£d to ins*ult you…. obinna asked me angrily over the phone.
Yes oh my husband, you need to see the way he insu*lted me aangrily….I continued.
I tried to help nnamdi, but it seems he is becoming ungrat£ful, it’s okay caro baby, allow him Go back to the village he belongs, i can’t have him ins*ult my wife…. obinna said angrily.
No oh please my husband allow him come back home i forgive him already, just help me talk to him that he should come back home, am no longer angry with him again.
Chai!!!
This is why I love you, you have a pure heart and soul, don’t worry, nnem when I get back from Germany, i will surprise you inugo?
No problems my husband, I heard you but don’t forget to call nnamdi oh?
No problems my darling, i will call him tomorrow to come back to the house as you said.
Thank you so much, I need to go now have a great day….. and I quickly hunged up.
After the call, i smiled feeling happy and then i stared at the thing Agnes gave me once again, and I safely kept it inside my wardrobe.
NNAMDI POV
it’s been three days since I started living with okechukwu and I was really cool with it.
I had peace and did anything i like without the fe*ar of seeing Aunty Caroline.
That day i was watching a movie at the sitting room when I heard my phone ringed.
I checked and it was my uncle calling.
I was afraid to pick his calls but he constantly kept calling and i picked.
You didn’t want to pick up my calls because you are guil*ty right?….my uncle asked over the phone.
Good afternoon uncle….I greeted.
Keep your greetings to yourself nnamdi i don’t need it.
What is it that am hearing from my wife nnamdi?
I don’t understand you uncle, i don’t know what you are talking about….I replied.
So nnamdi, because my wife asked you to start eating at the dinning and talking to her, you started insu*lting her and you left the house angrily abii, is it not?…. uncle obinna asked angrily.
I placed my hands on my mouth in sho*ck, wondering why Aunty Caroline would lie against me to her husband.
Why didn’t she just tell her husband the truth, i wondered.
And then uncle obinna spoke again.
Why are you mute obinna, and by the way where are you?…. uncle asked.
I am at a friend’s place….I replied.
Oh, so just this few weeks you have been in Abuja, you are already making friends?
Now I see where your rud£n£ss to my wife is coming from.
No uncle, he is my childhood friend and we are from same village….I replied.
Anyways, that’s your business, you are lucky my wife Caroline pleaded on your behalf, i won’t have allowed you come back to my house.
Now if you know what is good for you, park your things and leave where you are presently and go back to my house this minutes.
I wont repeat myself again…. and then he Hung up.
Instantly i arranged my bag’s, and left that same day informing okechukwu.
