KARMA
EPISODE 4
“So now she has succeeded in destroying your beautiful home right and all you can say is that it is meant to be that way?” Princess asked.
‘My husband destroyed our home first. He abandoned our marriage vows when he found out i was carrying a 3rd female child, to him i was unable to give him male children. He called our lovely daughters prostitutes and was ready to kill me and my unborn baby because I confronted her. This marriage is over, he can have her for himself” Veronica said.
“No no no I won’t allow this. I mean for what na after all you two have been through? As long as I am concern I’ll make sure that brat won’t know peace because i am going to give her a good place. She will pay for what she did to your home”, Princess said and the doctor walked in with her mother.
“Doctor can i see my baby now? Veronica asked and a nurse walked in immediately with a wheel chair.
“Sure, We are here to take you there, but you have to use the wheel chair, the doctor said.
“I have no problem with that please” Veronica said and she was helped to sit on the wheel chair.
She was wheeled to the incubation room where her son was shown to her,
“don’t worry he’s doing very good and he will be out soon” the doctor said seeing Veronica was crying already.
“Its okay friend, soon you will play with him” Princess said touching her and she nodded holding her daughters who was just smiling.
“Your brother is so handsome” Veronica said to them.
“Yes mommy his hands are very little”, her first child said.
“And he’s very small”, her second added and she smiled.
“You were looking like that too years ago”, the doctor said…
………….
The gateman informed Matthew of the hospital he took his wife to when he returned but he cared less.
“Will that make you leave your duty post for hours huh? Were you the one helping her in labour” Matthew shouted.
“Sorry sir but the girls were not able to do anything, I had to stay by to help in the running around and to be with your daughters before their grandmother came” the gateman said.
“Will you shut up your mouth and get out of my sight” Matthew shouted and he turned to leave.
“By the way what did she give birth to?” Matthew stopped him and the gate man turned looking at him wondering if he should tell him the truth or keep shut because veronica mother commanded him to.
“Are you now dumb” He shouted.
‘Its a boy sir, though I was asked not to tell you, excuse me sire” the gateman said and left leaving him shocked.
The word “its a boy sir” sent cold shivers to his body and he felt his feet could no longer carry him.
He went inside thinking hard wondering what came over him when the action he did last night displayed before him.
“Oh Veronica will you ever forgive me” He shouted rubbing his head in worry and Debbie called on phone.
He hissed ignoring the calls but she kept calling…
…..
“What’s wrong with this man? He’s not picking up my calls” Debbie said but Prisca pretended like she didn’t hear that.
“I am talking to you Prisca, what’s wrong with him?” Debbie asked shouting on her.
“Why are you asking me that? Am i also dating him?” Prisca asked.
“He promised to see me at this time to apologize for what his wife did to me, but unlike him he’s not here yet and he’s ignoring my calls” Debbie complained.
“So you still need apology when you are to apologize to that woman instead? Please take me out from your affairs, deal with your problem because i am not a part of it” Prisca said and left the house…
………..
Matthew was about entering his car to drive out when a horn was heard on the gate, the gateman opened up and two cars drove in.
Veronica mother and best Friend came out with two huge guys which got Matthew scared seeing the look on their faces.
He slowly walked up to them with a sober look, “Mathew Mathew so you can do this to my daughter because of a small girl?” Veronica’s mother said.
“Ma please I was on my way going there……..”
“To do what? I gave you my only child in one peace seeing you were the only son of your parents too. I thought there will be strong bond apart from being husband and wife you two could be brothers and sisters. My daughter was already a working class lady, you didn’t met her poor seeking for help, but just because of a male child you reduce her to nothing. You called my grandchildren prostitutes Matthew? Chai God you are lucky that you are the father of those children because I would have so deal with you eh!” Theresa shouted.
“Ma please I know I am wrong, I am very sorry”, Mathew pleaded.
“Oh so you told him?” Theresa asked the gateman who bowed his head saying nothing.
“Anyway I don’t care if this sudden sober look is because she gave birth to male child, the child you almost killed when you thought it was a girl. If I see you near my children Matthew you won’t live to tell the story” Theresa said and pushed him away to get inside.
“Ma please let’s talk about this” Matthew said wanting to hold her but the guys stood in front of him with a stern look stopping him and Theresa and Princess went into the house.
Minutes later they came out dragging bags out of the house which Matthew looked weak because the guys didn’t let him move a step.
“Come put this things in the car”, Theresa shouted on the gateman which he quickly obeyed and they went in to bring the rest.
“This marriage is over, my daughter sweat is in this building but you can have it. Soon you will get the divorce papers so you’ll be a free man, don’t you dare come near my children” Theresa warned after packing her children things.
“Please ma it hasn’t come to this please I beg you. Just give me a chance to make things right” Matthew pleaded.
“Let’s go, Theresa said to the bouncers, they got into the car and drove off.
…………..
Theresa and Princess visited Veronica in the hospital but met the children sleeping.
“Where did you two go to?” Veronica asked but each of them carried the sleeping children.
“We are taking them home. They haven’t had a good bath or slept in a comfortable place” Theresa said.
“Please can you help me get some clothes for them? My children has never been in such condition before” Veronica sadly said.
“Don’t worry, their bags are already at home, Princess said.
“Their bags? You two went there why?” Veronica asked.
“So you expect me to leave my children things in that house so that evil girl will use it to harm them? I won’t accept it o” Theresa said.
“Its okay, but did you see him?” Veronica asked.
“I saw the idiot and I warned him to stay clear from my children, in fact just rest I’ll be back, Theresa said.
“OK please tell the maid to take care of them for me” Veronica said.
“You worry too much, bye, Princess said and left with Theresa…
………..
Prisca went to her mom place telling her everything that has happened after she left Debbie, “why didn’t you tell me this all this while? I was wondering how Debbie got the money to give to me but then you told me not to worry, why Prisca?” Her mom asked.
“Mom I’m sorry, but I didn’t ask her for the money she did it willingly” Prisca said.
“No, its still wrong knowing the source of it even if she did it with a good mind. I don’t want you to be part of this”, Her mom said.
“Mom I’m not, trust me, I’ve tried my best to talk to Debbie but her eyes and ears are just closed to the truth. The money is there and she doesn’t want to leave it, I’m just scared for her seeing the way the woman warned her”, Prisca said..
“Hey God! Are you sure you are safe in that house?” Her mom asked.
“I didn’t do anything o and I know I won’t pay the price for what I didn’t commit” Prisca said.
“You think so? You being in a wrong and bad relationship or place can put you trouble whether you were part of it or not. Don’t tell me you’ve not been partaking in whatever she has been bringing to the house”, Her mom said.
“Ah mommy, I am not dating this man and I never asked for those things o abeg” Prisca said.
“Then you have to start rejecting everything from her, can you do it?” Her mom asked.
“Yes I will, in fact I was doing that already when it was getting out of hand. Mom there’s something you need to know, Debbie is pregnant for him, Prisca said and her mom mouth flew open…
