🙎 A Daughter’s Revenge EPISODE THIRTY:
Not just that, KC wanted to use that opportunity to tell Martha how so much he loved her.
Martha herself didn’t even know that KC had been granted bail not to talk of leaving Lagos for the village. It was when she came to see KC the following morning with food that the police woman on duty informed her of the shocking news. At first she never believed it. As she never saw it coming that way. Although she knew about the visit of KC’s uncles and was of the hope that KC would be released anytime soon. KC had informed her of the developments but what baffled her so much was KC’s sudden exit from Lagos. Because that was not the plan. KC has never for one day told her of his intention of leaving Lagos upon his freedom from the captivity of the police.
‘So how come?’, Martha had to ask the policewoman amid confusion. The policewoman had long become her friend. That was made possible because of tips she used to drop for them anytime she came visiting.
‘Na dey bail conditions he signed be that. That matter no be small matter o. DPO dey involve for the case o! You know say Mr. Anthony na DPO personal person..’, she explained.
‘But if I may ask, I thought it’s illegal to detain someone for more than three days without charging the person to court?’, Martha had to ask.
‘Leave that thing. No be naija we dey? Law na for poor man. If you get money and connection you dey above the law in naija,’ she explained.
‘That’s very pathetic’, Martha said while shaking her head in great disappointment in the corrupt system.
‘Dey dia dey speak queens English. So you never know say if you no get money for this country, dèàd person better pass you? For this country, law na for poor people,’ she added.
‘Oya na, I will be going,’ Martha announced.
‘Ah! ah!!, just like that? You no go drop something for us?,’ the policewoman asked.
Martha deeped hand into her purse and squeezed something into the policewoman’s hand. ‘Manage me like that’, she said with a weak voice.
‘Na you try pass’, the policewoman added amid smile.
Martha reluctantly walked out of the police station.
‘Eyaaa, fine girl. Lover girl. I pity you sha. And she love that guy well well. And the boy too love her in return. There love strong dîe. I pray say he come back for her o. And I hope say they end up together o because na perfect match the two be..’, the policewoman was soliloquising as she sympathized with Martha while she was walking away.
That day, Martha left the police station with heavy legs. Her body was so weak as if all the blood inside of her was drained off her. She couldn’t go home with the food she came with. She dropped the food with the policewoman to give to the prisoners.
‘How could KC go without a goodbye? Not even a phone call. What has gone wrong? Did his health fail him all of a sudden?,’’Martha was asking herself inside the motor back to the shop. ‘No! It can’t be. Because as of yesterday, he was healthy and hearty. Even if something had happened, he would be taken to the hospital, not to the village,’ she paused, hissed. ‘But this is strange. Because even if KC had signed to leave Lagos as part of his bail conditions, it shouldn’t be with immediate effect na, ehn? So from the police cell straight to the village…without even an opportunity to say goodbye to his friends and well wishers? I have never seen or heard of such before. Even one who’s fated for deportation in a foreign land, would not be deported in such a manner. Haba! This is injustice to the highest order! For what na? Because he doesn’t have people that matter?,’ she paused and continued in tears after a sober reflection. ‘KC, wherever you are, I just hope you are okay. I know you don’t have a phone again, if not, you would have called. I know you don’t have my new number off heart, if not, you would have reached out to me through someone else’s phone. But wherever you are, just be fine. If not for anything, at least for me. I love you. I know you love me. You have proven your love to me beyond every reasonable doubt. But just that you are a shy guy. That’s why you have not professed your love for me. I just hope we meet again. Probably, our second meeting will be the best and perfect time for you to look into my eyes and tell me you love me. I will always remember you in my prayers..’, Martha continued soliloquising amid tears.
DAYS LATER:
Even Martha herself never knew how much she loved KC, not until this very moment he was no more of her reach and sight. She really missed KC. She even felt sick for days. In fact, life without KC became very meaningless to her.
It was just recently that Martha, to some extent, began to cope without KC in her life. But even at that, that vacuum KC left in her heart was irreplaceable.
At times, Martha would just walk past Mr Anthony’s shop with hope of seeing KC, but she would come back very disappointed amid nostalgia and tears.
KC on the other hand was not having it easy. He missed Martha so much that he always thought about her every night and day. The nostalgia of them together tormented him very badly. He has always thought of returning back to Lagos but the major problem was he had not saved enough môñèy to be able to catch up with life in Lagos.
Kelechi had done all his possible best to reach out to Martha all to no avail. He had even tried welcoming back his old line to no avail. Because the line was not initially registered by him. As a matter of fact, he couldn’t even recall who gave him the line. The line was given to him by one of his friends back then in Abuja.
MONTHS LATER:
That day happened to be Sunday. Martha was at home alone. She was in the sitting room relaxing herself after a long hours reading and solving assignments. He had some sliced fruits on a plate she was using to relax her body and soul while watching a program on the television.
Halfway, she had a knock on the door. And Martha was not expecting any visitors. Besides, she was the only person at home because Aunty Ifeoma just traveled to the village for a burial.
‘So who could that be?’, she was just asking herself when the knock echoed again for the third time.
‘I just hope this is not Femi. Because this guy has been seriously pestering my life for a long time now. I have told him I am not interested in any relationship for now but he refused to let me be..’, Martha kept soliloquising. As she refused to go open the door.
The knock kept echoing repeatedly, this time, none stop. When Martha could no longer bear it, she angrily went to know who that was and as well shout at the person. In fact, if it was Femi, she would even fight him tooth and nail.
And she angrily opened the door, behold, she could not believe who she saw…
Watch out for the next episode to find out who that was and other interesting dramas that unfolded.
