🙎 A Daughter’s Revenge EPISODE SIXTY NINE:
PREVIOUSLY ON A DAUGHTER’S REVENGE:
…at one point, she placed a direct call to Martha but her phone was switched off. It was very unusual for Martha’s phone to go off. Because even though there was no power supply for her to charge the phone, Martha had a power bank.
Aunty Ifeoma quickly called one of her tenants to go check up on Martha but when he got there, he found the door locked.
However, the assumption was that Martha went out and probably she had a flat battery.
So they waited patiently for her to be back. But Aunty Ifeoma was having this bad feeling that something was wrong somewhere.
The day was almost winding down when Aunty Ifeoma finally gave the order to break the door.
After several attempts, they succeeded in breaking the door.
But Lo and behold, they met the biggest shock of their life…
THE CONTINUATION;
Amid the heat, Aunty Ifeoma called KC with immediate effect and yelled at him angrily. She made it clear to him that if anything bad happened to Martha, that she would hold him responsible. In fact, he would have her to contend with.
Upon dropping the call, KC rushed to Martha’s place.
On getting to the house, he met people struggling to break Martha’s door.
KC had to join forces in breaking the door.
And at last, they succeeded in breaking the door.
But Martha was nowhere to be found.
KC personally searched every nook and cranny of the house for her all to no avail.
But one thing KC found out was that some of Martha’s belongings, especially her clothes, were nowhere to be found. They were missing.
So he raised the alarm that some of her things were not in her wardrobe. Even her traveling bag.
That news alone gave many people hope that she was alive. Because many of them, especially KC, feared that Martha had finally succeeded in committing suîcîdè.
Even Aunty Ifeoma, to some extent, was relieved. At least, Martha was alive. She believed. Probably, she has gone into exile to relieve herself from her traumatic environment.
‘But where could she be? How could she have gone without even a goodbye?,’ she paused. ‘Where is my daughter, Martha? Who knows how she’s faring wherever she is now..’. These were questions Aunty Ifeoma always asked herself everyday amid tears.
The cry of a mother. Because Martha had blended with her biologically. Martha had become a daughter to Aunty Ifeoma. So her sudden disappearance affected her so much. To the extent she felt sick after many days of sleepless nights and tears.
Aunty Ifeoma even involved the police. But after spending much, the search yielded no positive result.
Martha had gone into exile.
She left without telling anybody.
Martha destroyed her SIM card so that no one would be able to contact her.
One of the reasons Martha never said a goodbye to Aunty Ifeoma was that she deemed herself not worthy to be called her daughter anymore. As she saw herself as a disappointment and disgrace to her. So she decided to go far away to face the consequences of her mistakes since KC had abandoned her for another woman.
Not just that, Martha wanted to free herself from the severe shackles of environmental hostage. So leaving Lagos was the best. As it would help to wipe off the negative memories of Lagos in her.
Martha left the shores of Lagos for the north. That fateful day she left, she sneaked out of the house at night with some of her things she could lay her hand on. She even disguised herself beyond recognition.
Martha boarded a night bus to her destination.
Meanwhile, Martha had sold off all the goods in her shop unknown to anybody. It was Oga Osundu that bought the goods.
Oga Osondu did everything to convince Martha otherwise, but she insisted on auctioning off her goods. Even, he tried to know the reason behind her sudden decision, Martha refused to tell him. Instead, Martha threatened to sell to another person if he was not ready to buy. As such, Oga Osundu had to mind his business and became business focused.
As a matter of fact, Oga Osundu did not pay Martha fully. He only paid about 80% of the money. Then they reached an agreement when to pay the remaining balance. So Martha dropped her bank account with him. Meanwhile, in all their business dealings, Martha never opened up to him.
Martha had relocated to Kaduna state to start life afresh again there. So as to stay far away from the torment of Lagos and its inhabitants.
~~ONE YEAR LATER~~
Martha really started life afresh again in Kaduna.
Even before she left Lagos, he had rented an apartment in the heart of Kaduna. A friend of hers helped her to secure the one bedroom apartment. So as she landed, she came and picked her straight to her house.
Months later, Martha rented a shop in Kaduna and started the same business she was doing in Lagos.
In fact, Martha was doing very well for herself in business. As a matter of fact, Martha had reconnected with her business partner outside Nigeria.
The day Martha reached out to Alhaji, he was so happy to hear from her. He asked Martha what happened to her suddenly offline. Martha tabled everything to him without leaving any stone unturned. Alhaji really felt pity on her and supported her with a huge sum.
Their business activities resumed with immediate effect. So Martha, through the help of her agent, would clear the container in Lagos, then transport it down to Kaduna. Then she would select the ones to sell and distribute others to the available buyers.
In fact, the market in Kaduna was more profitable to Martha than that of Lagos. Because the demand was very high. Even before her container would arrive in Kaduna, buyers were already on ground with their money waiting for the arrival of the goods. Many retailers prefer buying from Martha instead of going to Lagos. And as God may have it, Alhaji had linked her with more friends who were sending containers of goods to her. Every month, Martha was clearing more than two containers.
