BIMPE: *****sat down on the chair**** ok dear,
ME: but bimpe, I don’t like it
BIMPE: what is that dear?
ME: **** whispered in yoruba **** the
kiss offcourse, I told you we should stop
it, what if anyone comes in or daniella
sees us?
BIMPE: **smiled*** and you scared me
sha, firstly, only you, me and daniella are
in this compound so no one is coming in,
secondly, she is a kid and besides she
has been blocked by the other chair, and
lastly, no big deal in kissing my inlaw,
even if your wife betty is here, I will do
that in her presence and nothing will
happen.
ME: seriously, you no well,
BIMPE:**smile** na you and your wife no
well,
ME: **** had jokes for a while*** so
bimpe, why am I here?, what do you want
to show me?
BIMPE: just calm down onihaxy, this is
just past 11, there is still time for
discussion, let me check what I am
cooking and let’s eat first, then we can
have time and strength to discuss.
**stood up and went to the kitchen with
her ass swinging like a pendulum.
ME: ***picked remote from the able and
switched to music channel****
About 12 minutes later, bimpe called me
to join her at the dinning, I stood up
from the living room and went to sit on
the dinning, I picked up daniella and
made her to sit on the next chair closer
to me. Bimpe came out of the kitchen
with 2 big dishes, plates and spoons, she
dropped them on the table and was
ready to serve the meal. She first served
a white rice on two plates and later filled
them up with chicken and stew, we began
to eat while bimpe carried daniella on her
laps and spoon fed her while eating at
the same time.
ME: bimpe, can’t she eat by herself?
BIMPE: she can eat by herself just that
she would spill the food over everywhere.
ME: ***continued eating**** ok
After the meal, bimpe told Daniella to go
to living room and watch TV while we
both remained at the dinning staring at
each other,
ME: so bimpe, now that we are through
with dinner, can we proceed?
BIMPE: onihaxy!!!!, you are just so eager
sha.
ME: don’t mind me jaree, you know I hate
suspense.
BIMPE: ok, let’s do it this way, which do
you want first?, what I wanted to show
you? Or what I wanted to tell you on how
to get betty back?
ME: hmmmmmmmmmmm, are the two
about betty?
BIMPE: no, different things entirely
ME: ok, let me hear about Betty first, that
is the major issue and fear I have at the
moment,
BIMPE: hmmmn oko iyawo!!!!!
ME: thank you, na me be that. So I’m all
ears dear
BIMPE: ok let me start with my own
story, like 6 months before we met at
fortlad hospital in abuja, I have met
henry, he had an accident while driving
and he was rushed to our hospital, I was
the nurse on duty to attend to him during
that period and I was so nice to him so
he had my contact, one thing led to
another, we started as friends, later, we
developed feelings for each other and we
started dating.
ME: that’s nice, go on dear
BIMPE: during that period, he had this
rich girl he was dating, the lady was a
daughter of a minister, as in, she was
very rich, but the girl was so proud,
arrogant and a drug addict so henry
never loved her that much, he was only
obeying his father’s order because the
relationship was matched-make
according to him. So when I got pregnant
and his daddy heard about it, he was so
angry, I could remember he sent for me,
gave me a million naira cheque to abort
the pregnancy and forget about his son
but I refused and rejected it. To make the
matter worse, henry’s daddy threatened
to dis-own henry, froze his account and
made sure he would never have any
inheritance from his property, so henry
had no choice than to withdraw himself
and stayed away from me, infact, I went
through hell.
ME: ***felt sober*** eeeyah so sowie,
what happened later?
BIMPE: like I said, henry stayed away
from me for like two months, henry’s
father and henry’s girlfriend both
threatened to kill me if I didn’t back off
from henry, infact I remembered when
some hoodlums came to my house to
beat me up just because of this issue,
but I had to take a bold step to claim
what belonged to me. So I think the
same thing is happening to betty, though
I don’t know much about what happened
to her in abuja, but I knew she ran away
from home and came to lagos because
she was forced to marry a guy he doesn’t
like. She ought to have travelled out for
her Msc since she finished service but
her dad vowed never to sponsor her
unless she obey his will. Her account was
even frozen so henry had been the one
responsible for her up-keeping.
ME: eeeeyah, nawa ooooooo. So what
was the step you took?
BIMPE: will you be able to do it?
ME: why not?, I will do anything it takes
to have betty back to myself.
BIMPE: ok, my sister took me to an alfa,
he made some prayer and spiritual
assistance for me, that was how I
became mrs henry by fire by force.
ME: hmmmmmm. Spiritual things????,
haa!!!!
BIMPE: onihaxy, I’m not taking you to an
herbalist house its an alfa, so it has no
implication.
ME: but bimpe, wait a minute, why are
you willing to help me?
BIMPE: hmmm, I wanted your happiness
onihaxy, when you are happy, I will also
be happy, and I realized that your
happiness lies in betty, that is why I
don’t want you to loose her. Betty is so
eager and determined to further her
education before settling down, henry
wanted to help before but my father
inlaw sworn to dis-own henry if he tried
it. I think that prompt the re-connection
between betty and the guy in question.
And onihaxy, since you don’t have
money, wealth and rich family to
convince betty’s father of getting her
hand in marriage, I think the only way
out is to go spiritual on it. So whenever
you are ready, let me know and I will take
you out.
ME: ******sighed in a deep breath*****
its well ooooooo,
I looked at daniella’s side and discovered
she was sleeping already, I informed
bimpe and she took her to her room to
sleep there and she returned downstairs
to meet me at the dinning while we
resumed our discussion.
BIMPE: hmmmmm onihaxy!!, that is it
ooooo. The hard way is the only way ooo,
so go home and think well about it. And
please, let it between just two of us, no
third party please
ME: **took another deep breath*** ok
bimpe, I have heard you. What about
what you wanted to show me?
BIMPE: **smiled***. That one?, you have
to follow me to my room to see it
because its not something I can bring
downstairs ***winked***
ME: hmmmmmmmmmmm
