ENVY WITHIN
EPISODE 4
WRITTEN BY Rukevwe merry
Scott called Clara and asked for Sonia’s address. Clara wanted to know why, and Scott said he want to return Sonia’s car. Clara agreed and gave him the address.
Scott packed his clothes and put them in Sonia’s car. Then he drove to her house. When he arrived, Sonia wasn’t there, so he decided to wait for her. He ended up sleeping in the car.
Later, when Clara returned home, she couldn’t reach Scott. She started to worry. Eventually, Scott called back and told Clara he had gone to the village for something urgent.
The next day, Sonia came home and found her car parked outside. She was surprised to see it there. When Scott noticed her, he quickly got out of the car. Sonia panicked and ran to open her door then she went inside, but Scott stopped her from locking the door from inside.
Scott asked Sonia why she was running away from him. He claimed to be deeply in love with her. But Sonia told him that love shouldn’t be forced and asked him to go back to his wife.
Scott insisted that Sonia had no choice but to love him back. He then took out his clothes and shoes from the car, saying he was moving in with her because he couldn’t live without her.
In Sonia’s mind,Her plan to move into luxury had backfired, and now the man she thought was wealthy was invading her home.
Sonia went outside to make a call,Scott followed her closely like her shadow.sonia asked why following her;He said he was hungry and asked for food. Sonia told him to check the fridge. Scott emptied the fridge and warmed up all the food, eating everything.
That food is suppose to carry Sonia for two weeks,Scott ended up eating it once.
When Sonia returned to the kitchen, she found a mess everywhere. The fridge was empty, and the pots were all cleaned out. She yelled at Scott, realizing he wasn’t just after her life but her food too.
Feeling trapped and conflicted, Sonia considered calling Clara to take Scott away. However, she remembered the herbalist’s warning that she needed to continue giving Scott the love potion. She feared the consequences of stopping, so she decided not making the call.
Scott had been staying with Sonia for over a week,each day she continued to administer the love potion.However, Sonia was growing increasingly unhappy with the situation. Scott wasn’t just irritating her; he was also making a mess of her house.
Feeling exhausted and at her wit’s end, Sonia decided to confide in her mother. She expressed her concerns, fearing that if she continued down this path, she might lose her sanity. Unfortunately, her mother could offer no solution, leaving Sonia feeling even more helpless.
After the call with her mother, Sonia’s boyfriend unexpectedly showed up at her house. He was shocked to find Clara’s husband, Scott, sitting there. Unable to convince her boyfriend otherwise, Sonia watched in dismay as he condemned her for betraying him and took back the car and shop keys he had given her. With her source of income now taken away, Sonia felt devastated.
Sonia’s boyfriend took matters into his own hands and called Clara to inform her of her husband’s presence at Sonia’s house. Clara, accompanied by Jessica, arrived at Sonia’s house to confront the situation. Scott’s only response to their questions about why he was there was a repetitive declaration of “I love Sonia”.
Jessica and Clara forcibly dragged Sonia out of the house. Clara demanded answers from Sonia, questioning why her husband was with her when she thought he was in the village. Sonia, feeling betrayed, lashed out at Clara, accusing her of deceit and manipulation for concealing the truth about her husband’s poverty. Clara deflected the accusations, insisting on addressing the immediate issue at hand.
As everything got more chaotic, Sonia begged Clara to take her, “m@d husband”, out of her house. She explained how his behavior was really affecting her. Even though Clara tried to get Scott to come outside, he kept repeating,” I love Sonia”.
Sonia begged Clara one last time to take her husband away before getting the police involved. She explained how he had no money and was always eating everything in her house, which was making things even worse for her.
