My best friend is now my stepmom ๐
Chapter 7
I ran into my room and started packing my clothes, i can’t live in this house anymore, i packed my clothes and i called my mom’s younger sister, i explained everything that happened to her, she told me, she would come and pick me up. Few moments later, she called me that she was outside the house, i carried my bags and went out of my room, i saw maria in the sitting room, my dad was feeding her food.
“Favour, don’t tell me you are leaving your father’s house, because of a little quarrel ” maria said as she looked at me pitifully.
“Honey please don’t let favour leave, if she leaves now, my heart will not be at peace” maria said to my dad.
” if she wants to leave let her leave, i can’t believe you still want her to stay, after everything she has done to you, she can’t stay with you so let her go , am happy that she is going at least you would have peace of mind ” my dad said nonchalantly.
” segun, if she can’t stay with me, i can leave this house ” maria said sadly.
” you are going nowhere ,if someone has to leave , it should be her not you, ” my dad said as he patted her head, she also hugged him, this cunning girl, i said in my mind as i glared at her. Someone knocked it ,it was my aunt, she entered the house .
“Good morning ” my aunt said as she greeted.
“Oh folakemi, how have you been? Favour so it’s folakemi place you are going? My dad asked.
” yes, she is going with , since you and your new girl decided to send her out” my aunt answered in my stead.
“I didn’t send her out, it was her actions , if only you knew what she did” my dad said angrily.
” of course, you didn’t send her out, but you reactions did, how can choose to trust your maid and not your daughter, what if the maid and this stupid girl has planned to make you hate your daughter” my aunt asked as she faced my dad.
“My fiancee is not stupid, you can’t come into my house and start insulting my fiancee ” my dad said. My aunt started.
” so this is your house, i don’t know, but what i know was that my sister is the owner of this house, bro segun did you know why i stayed slient all these while, it was because you took care of favour, but now since you decided to do otherwise, you know the consequences, i don’t know why you refuse to be wise, you bought your new girl land, and built house for her parents but you haven’t built your own house, favour told me everything, i think it’s time for you to stop managing sister’s company ” my aunt said.
” stop saying nosense, folashade willed the company to me, there is no way i am giving it up” my dad said angrily.
” oh, it seems as if you have forgotten what was on the will, let me remind you, you are in charge of the company till Favour clocks twenty, thank God my sis has forseen all this before she died, i don’t know why she didn’t give anything to her family but she gave everythingto you, it was like you bewitched her, anyways prepare to leave the company very soon, goodbye” my aunt said as she walked out, so my dad is not the owner of the company it was my mom’s company.
“Favour, don’t listen to whatever your aunt says about me , don’t listen to her, please don’t follow her stay with daddy, i promise i will always trust you please stay with me” my dad pleaded. I thought my dad wanted me to leave the house few minutes ago, why does want me to stay again . I looked at him , i didn’t want to go again.
“Favour, come outside am waiting” my aunt shouted from outside.
“Dad sorry, i have to go” i said as i left the house.
