🍝THE TURN AROUND 7🍝
2 Days past and there wasn’t much changes in David, he still couldn’t eat or talk. Sandra has tried every skill to make him eat but he kept rejecting, but she didn’t stop. Every morning, she’d take food to him to see if he’d eat. “Today will be another day of food wasting in this house”. She rolled her eyes. “I’m just tired of all this.” Sandra said to herself as she served David’s food in a tray, but this time she joined hers together.
“knock knock, may I come in?” she asked, knocking at David’s room, but he gave no response as usual. “I guess I’ll just come in.” she pushed the door. “How are doing today mr whatever ur name is? Sorry I don’t mean to be rude, I brought u food, but if u don’t eat, I have mine here too, so I’ll eat mine if u can’t eat urs.” She said and tries to feed him since he couldn’t even touch the food, but he resisted again and again.
Sandra got upset by this. “what should I do with u!? haven’t I tried? I’m tired of u! u are stressing me! I don’t go out as I should all bcos I’m taking care of whoever u are!” Sandra yelled while he just stared at her without saying a word. “dont look at me like that… Okay, fine, I’m sorry for being harsh on u.” she apologized and turned to eat the food she brought for herself. As she was about to put a spoon in her mouth David stopped her, pointing at her food, and insisted he wanted hers. She quickly understood him and gave him some to eat. For the first time, David ate something little.
Sandra quickly called the doctor and informed him about the progress.
Later that night, Sandra told Bright about the miracle that happened and he laughed “hahaha, no tell me seriously, how does it feel taking care of a vegetable? well I hope he gets well though” Bright mocks Sandra.
This made her upset. “He’s not a vegetable, at least he can eat now, he’ll get better soon and I’ll be free sooner.” She replied and rolled her eyes. “Why can’t Bright get someone to take care of this person? is he happy seeing me grumbling all the time? it’s really getting harder by the day. I think I know what to do…

👣THE TURN AROUND 8👣
It was a Saturday and Sandra was doing some clean ups. While cleaning she sighted a 2 mouthed koboko inside Bright’s wardrobe and she shook her head in disbelieve. “Bright..” she called. “yes honey, a minute pls.” he replied from the bathroom, taking his bath.
When Bright came out Sandra asked him. “what is this for?” she asked, raising it up.
“what?… oh, where did u get that from? have u started searching my things?”.
“Bright that’s not the answer. I saw this thing in ur wardrobe, and so I ask again who is this for?” she asked again. “why will u ask me such silly question! Yes u saw a koboko in my room and so?” he replied
“who is it for!? Bright is this for me?” Sandra asked again more seriously. “Sandra come on now, don’t start. Just forget about this.” Bright said while he button his shirt trying to ignore her. “Bright don’t u dare try to pretend, it’s for me right? Jesus Christ! I thought u promised… What kind of a man are u?”
“hey watch it! u don’t talk to me like that. Yes, if the whip was meant for u so what? it doesn’t give u right to talk to me the way u like.” Bright replied her. “I will talk to u the way I want to. I can’t believe this! U are wicked Brigh…” Sandra fired at him. He stopped her with a sounding slap. “how dare u Sandra? ah! u called me a wicked man right? OK, I’ll show u wat a wicked man can do”. He grabbed the whip from her and began to flog her. She pleaded but he paid deaf ears until he was satisfied. “Next time u watch the way u run ur mouth.” He wore his shoes and left the house, leaving Sandra in tears.
Sandra gathered strength, wiped her eyes and went to prepare breakfast for herself. When she was done she came back to the dinning with the meal but totally lost appetite. “What is wrong with my life? What have I not done to make this man happy? haven’t I done enough!?” she spoke out loud, as tears started dripping from her eyes again. “God what is happening? when u brought Bright to my life things were going well, I thought that was it. But right now I don’t understand anymore. I don’t want to lose him please lord help me! Why’s all this happening to me!? why me!? why!!?.” She cried, paused for awhile and sighed. “I need help. I just need him to change & love me the way he used to…” she said in a lower tone. Suddenly, a voice from behind called out “Sandra…”
She turned around and froze at who she saw with her mouth wide opened…
