Funke lived with her friend and her husband just as Gloria’s mother did. Each woman with her child. It was a day David, Gloria’s husband had to vacate
the house he was living, then he went
back to his father’s house which is in the
Kingdom. At this stage, the Queen has
forgotten about Funke and Gloria.
They got back to the Kingdom, everything
still seems to have changed a little bit
and civilized. Gloria and Funke continued
living together till Funke met her new
husband and lived with him.

……
Daniel got home after the whole day with
Darasimi. He was looking happy as if he
was
with the president, he passed through the
living room to his room to rest for a
while. He was so tired and full, he didn’t
bother to come downstairs for dinner
again. The Queen wasn’t at peace, it was
just as if her conscience wasn’t giving
her rest, she was
sighing up and down. Although the
arrival of
the King was near, the following day. The
school will resume on the seventh of
January.
….
Darasimi was sitting on the sofa in the
living room watching the Television and
kids that were shown that went to
celebrate new year in a broadcasting
corporation. She was
smiling and sipping a bottle of Maltina
while
her mother walked out of the room, she
just
took a shower and relaxed on the sofa.
Darasimi stared at her for a moment,
Olufunke wasn’t looking towards her
direction. She was palming her hair that
was wet, she felt refreshed.
“Mum!” Darasimi suddenly called.
Olufunke quickly raised her head up and
looked at her. “Yeah. Why the shout?”
She
asked.
‘Nothing.’ She smiled.
“Nothing? And shouted that way?” She
asked
with curiosity of knowing why she was
suddenly shouted upon.
‘Okay, just want to gist you about Tony.’
She replied smiling.
“TONY?” Olufunke asked staring at her,
she took off her hand from her hair.
‘Yeah, or you don’t want to?’ She asked
laughing.
‘You aren’t serious, do you now want to
start
teasing me?’ She shouted.
“Mum, just tell me what happened back
then. Tony was asthmatic, Ruth also is
asthmatic.
Does it mean Tony is Ruth’s father?” She
winked. Funke was short of words. She
stared at her for a moment and smiled.
She walked up to her and sat beside her.
“I’ll tell you want you’ve always wanted
to hear. This is how it went……………..
…
Funke was relieved explaining everything
to her daughter. Darasimi also felt eased
and walked into her room thinking. They
all still believed Tony is dead, whereas
he’s till a living soul.
Few hours later, Dan called Darasimi to
greet her about the day they spent
together
