My baby is so cute! She said pecking him as she come out of the bed to observe her devotion.
Good morning my love! Ayomi said holding her hands as she prayed.
Chuckles! I remember the day you changed it for me because of this. He said jokingly as he joined in the devotion.
That was then! She said as she quickly stole a kiss from him.
Hmm! I see. Ayomi said wrapping her in his arms as they both stared at each other.
I love you okomi. She said resting on his chest.
I love you too iyawo e. He said
Let’s go get dress already. Ayomi said as he tried to get Ifemi out of his embrace.
Don’t go Ayomi! She said cuddling him.
Work nko? He asked teasingly.
I’m off work today!
I have to get to the hospital. He said as Ifemi raised her head.
Oh! I forgot! The lady, what happened to her? She asked.
She was pregnant just as the caller told me. The pregnancy is no more there Sha. He said weakly.
Ah? What happened? Ifemi asked concerned.
With the information I got, I think the guys that’s responsible aborted it in a tricky way.
Eeyah! I feel for her Sha. Ifemi said as Ayomi stared at her in smiles.
Maybe if you had allow me leave yesterday, that wouldn’t have happened. God knows the best Sha! The guy isn’t a responsible one at that sef. He said as they both stood to get dressed.
You will follow me? Ayomi asked as Ifemi seems clingy.
I can’t stay at home alone jare. I will stay with Simi in the hospital. She said as they both headed for the hospital.
What’s baby sis? Ayomi said putting a call to Ewadara.
I’m cool bro! How is everyone? She asked as Ayomi and Ifemi entered the hospital.
Everyone is good. When are you coming home? Ayomi asked.
I’m in the cab to your estate. She said
Wow! We went out already. Will you wait for us? Ayomi asked
You and who went out? Aunty mhi should be at home. She said.
She’s with me. She’s off work, so she followed me.
Ehnehn? Which day did all these start and you can’t tell me? Ewadara asked teasingly.
Let’s get home first! Ayomi replied.
Okay o! I will be waiting. Tell sister mhi to get me something when coming. She said as they hung the call.
Morning Doc. Ayomi greeted.
Morning the Adedeji. He said ushering them to the ward Simi was.
Your wife?
Yes!
Wow! You’ve got a beautiful one! The doctor said.
Thanks for the compliment. Ifemi said.
How is she now? Ayomi asked entering the ward.
She’s getting better as you can see, we sedate her few hours ago. She’s responding to treatment too and I can assure you that she will be fine soon. The doctor said.
Thanks so much doctor. We really appreciate! Ifemi said.
My job! The doctor said leaving them.
I hope she get well already! Ifemi said sitting close to her
She will babe! Let me be on my way. I have to find the guy that did this. Ayomi said standing to leave.
Alright my joy. Don’t be late okay! Ifemi said as Ayomi waved in response.
I won’t! Do well to go home soon, Ewadara will be lonely. Ayomi said dashing out of The ward.
Ifemi watched over Simi as she prayed silently for her to get well soon.
Not long, the lady opened her eyes as at the time, Ifemide was fast asleep beside her.
She reached for her as she gently tapped her. Sister! Please Wake up. Simi said weakly as Ifemi quickly stood up.
Oh! You’re awake now! I hope you are okay now. Will you like to eat anything. She asked as Simi smiled at her.
Thank you. But I don’t know you. She said as Ifemi smiled
I’m Ayomi’s wife, your friend. She said.
Really! Awwn, thanks for visiting me. She said
Don’t mention! He went out few hours ago. I will just call the doctor. Ifemide said.
This sister’s face looks familiar! Simi thought as she watched Ifemi entered with the doctor.
How are you now? The doctor asked checking her.
Much better! She replied.
Hope there’s no more pain?
Not at all. I’m fine now! She said weakly.
Alright then, I will tell someone to get you food. He said as he turned to leave.
You’re sister ifemide right? Simi asked looking at Ifemide’s confused.
Yes I am.
You had your NYSC where? I’m sorry for my questions. Simi asked
Benue state! Ifemi replied.
Ehnehn! You’re the one! Simi said assuredly.
You know me? Ifemi asked
You remember one night at the corpers lodge, when some unknown hoodlums invade the place and raped some sisters, they even kidnapped some. Simi said as memories flashed.
Oh yes! I remember. Your face looks like one of the girls guide members that came to our rescue. Ifemi said.
I am! Simi said excitedly.
What a terrible day! Ifemi said as she recollect the horrible scene.
It was a peaceful night, everyone had retired to their room when all of a sudden, some men entered the lodge and started shooting.
Everywhere was silent as the sisters were afraid to come out.
Everyone of you should come out! One voice ordered.
The hoodlums started using their weapons to break the doors.
Where are the virgins? The one who seems to be their leader shouted.
Alaye, make we no waste time jare. One said using the diabolic item with him to touch them.
We need twelve, and we have not seen three. He said angrily as the sisters wailed.
They got the twelve and they began to rape them, collecting their blood in a Calabash.
Ifemi was one of the virgins and just as when she was to be raped…there was a gun shot and the man fell upon, which led to her passing out.
She woke up to meet the girls guide around, which Simi was one of them.
You weren’t hurt! Simi said smiley as Ifemi hugged her in tears.
The flash of our the other sisters were flowing kept to her mind as she screamed the more.
They are not coming here! They’ve been arrested. Simi said assuredly.
Wow! So, she was a victim? The presenter asked
Almost!
That was such a terrible day that nearly crumbled my marriage. Ifemi said.
Thanks for coming at the right time, you saved me twice! Ifemi said hugging simisola.
Awwwn, so that made my wife a nag? Ayomi asked entering the ward
You heard all we said? Simi asked
Yes madams! He said jokingly.
You should have at least tell me! He said embracing his wife.
I don’t know! She said weakly.
How are you now Simi? He asked
I’m good! Thanks for taking care of me.
I should thank you too! You saved us! Ayomi said
Yes, you did! Ifemi added hugging Simi on bed.
