Life as an Adult

Episode 16

“please where are you guys taking me?” i nervously asked the policemen with me, expecting an answer but they simply ignored me, saying nothing.

“please i beg of you, tell me” i pleaded directly to the policeman by my right hand. The officer just sighed and eyed me, saying nothing, which really left me clueless on what next to do or expect. I just couldn’t believe it was all real..

On getting to a junction about 20 kilometers away from Owerri main town, the two cars took a sharp right and headed to a divisional police headquarters which was just about four poles away from the junction. I heaved a sigh of relief, as the convoy headed to the back of the police station.
Within seconds, I was roughly dragged out of the car and thrown on the dirt with five police officers kicking and hitting me with batons. I screamed, cried and pleaded for mercy while Tessy’s Ex husband simply watched on with a dirty smile of satisfaction on his face.

The beating however stopped when an elderly high ranking police officer showed up. He drew close and peered at my face with concern.

“you mean this innocent looking young man is the culprit that has been fueling all the crisis in your family?” he asked Tessy’s Ex husband who nodded silently.

“unbelievable” the old officer breathed.

“can you believe she left my kids for almost a week just to be with him?. I caught them together. Your men can testify to that” Tessy’s Ex husband explained, while my instinct quickly made me do the imaginable without caring for the little self esteem i had left.

I launched forward without warning, taking the policemen that surrounded me with surprise and throwing myself on Tessy’s husband’s feet, grabbing his right leg.

“please i’m so sorry sir, just let me go. I promise, i swear i will stay away from your family forever. Just let me go” I begged with my whole heart.
The last thing on my mind was caring to know if the man had the right to treat me the way he was doing. All i wanted was simply to go home and erase the nightmare from my memory. I couldn’t afford letting myself be thrown into jail because of Tessy. I couldn’t afford putting my family into another trauma. I couldn’t afford letting things explode more than it had already exploded. I had a lot to lose in both ways. The only easy way out was throwing away my pride to beg him to free me. That was the only easy way out of the situation.

“I beg of you just let me go” i sobbed.

“i’m sorry young, but i really have no business with you. I only will listen to your father. That’s the only person that can get you out of here” he said coldly, flinging his leg to wade me off.

“my father isn’t alive” i sobbed.

“then i will talk with your mother. Your mother for your freedom” he muttered seriously while i wailed even deeper.

“noooo not my mother” i sobbed. The poor woman already had gone through a lot for my sake. I couldn’t imagine how she would take the news or how i would face my family afterwards. At my age i was supposed to be the father of the family and not the prodigal son.
The news could kill the poor woman. She could suffer severe heartbreak over it.

EPISODE 17

“no not my mother. Don’t involve her, i beg of you” i begged passionately, trying hard to change the man’s mind.
Involving my mother was like driving a stake through my chest but unfortunately the men standing before me failed to realise it. The elderly police officer, simply shook his head in disbelief.

“young man, you are being offered a chance to go home without charges and you are still trying to waste our time” he scolded me, ordering a female constable who just showed up that moment, to take my phone and call my mother.

In a matter of seconds, my handcuff was removed, i nervously dialled out my mother’s phone number and gave to the female officer who quickly called my mother, telling her to abandon everything she was doing and come over to the police station to bail me out. I couldn’t hear my mother’s reply but it was so agonizing listening as the female officer talked to her.

“she’s on her way but it’s going to take a while before she gets here. She’s in Enugu” the female officer addressed the men after speaking with my mother.

“gosh i can’t wait. My brother you have to take over from here. When the woman shows up, release the boy to her but first tell her exactly all i told you when we spoke last night. Also narrate to her where we got her son this morning. Let her know that she raised a terrible son. I have to leave for Abuja right away. I have to go get my kids before that b.itch runs away with them” Tessy’s Ex husband addressed the elderly police officer before hurriedly leaving for Abuja.

I was soon dragged into one of the empty rooms in the police station, where i stayed and waited for my mother to show up.
“If your mum didn’t get here before 4pm you will be thrown into the cell” one of the junior officers said to me as he locked me inside the empty room where i stayed and hopefully waited.

At exactly 3:55pm, a female officer led my mother to the room where i was detained.
I really felt so ashamed to look my mother in the face. The anger in her eyes was equally very apparent as she looked at me strongly.
She gave the female officer a knowing look. The officer understood, smiled and left us alone.

“I have secured your release but i must tell you that i’m so, so disappointed in you. I doubt if you are truly my son and believe me, i must carry out a DNA test to confirm if you are, because i don’t know if you were switched at the hospital when i was still in labour pains. My bl0*d can’t behave the way you are doing” she said seriously, with tears melting her eyes.

“you left home just to be with a married woman. I can’t keep covering for you anymore. From this moment, i will no longer pressure Adaora into marrying you. In fact i’m going to tell her everything that happened today. I can’t sacrifice the poor girl’s happiness over my personal interest. Good luck with your life” she poured out, turned and left with tears….

I felt totally DEAD.

Episode 18

I picked up my miserable self, collected my phones from the officer that seized them before going after my mother. But on getting outside, one of the policemen standing guard told me that she already has left with her driver. I just didn’t know what to do that moment. I simply stood like a moulded figure clueless on the direction to head.
I desperately wanted to sit down and explain things to my mother. I so much wanted her to believe that i did nothing with Tessy but of course she won’t believe me. No one would, not with my history, my nauseating past. I was just totally confused, ashamed and down. The hot words my mother used on me, slowly burned my heart as i remembered every word.

One of my phones beeped that moment, notifying me of a text message, i eagerly opened my phone to see three text messages waiting for me and they were all from Tessy.
“VAL I HOPE YOU ARE FINE, WHERE ARE YOU??” read the first message…….
“VAL ANSWER ME PLEASE, I’M DYING OF WORRY. I PROMISE I WILL COME GET YOU” was the second message…….
“VAL I’M NOW ON MY WAY TO ABUJA TO PROTECT MY KIDS. I HOPE YOU UNDERSTAND?. PLEASE CALL ME” was the third message she left me… I couldn’t reply nor call her back. I wasn’t in the mood to talk to her.

I finally returned to my apartment in Owerri, to rest and figure out a way to settle things with my mother. I desperately needed to relax and calm my head but unfortunately for me, barely two minutes after i got to my apartment, my phone rang and it was no other person than Adaora calling.
My heart instantly flew as i stared at my ringing phone, too scared to answer it and when i finally did answer, Adaora’s voice told me that all wasn’t well.

“Val” she called, but i couldn’t say a word. I couldn’t find my voice. It was as if my mouth was sealed that moment.
“Val” she called again but i still was unable to say anything.
“Val i guess you know why i called?. It’s over. Good bye” she said coldly and hung up while my heart instantly shattered into pieces. It pained me more because i actually didn’t sleep with Tessy contrary to all everyone thought and unfortunately “GOODBYE” was the saddest and last word i heard from Adaora that ended it all……

Of course she wasn’t close anymore for me to use my charms on her nor did i have my mother’s influence to save me this time. I needed no telling that it finally was over between Adaora and I.

EPISODE 19

Episode 19

I really was in a very terrible state of mind that evening. I felt like dying. I just felt like giving up on life and escape the terrible pain i was passing through.
In just a single day, i lost my mother, Adaora and my happiness. What’s the need living all alone when your loved ones are gone??. I just was in fact totally devastated and empty.

I finally tried calling Adaora later in the night but she never answered my calls, neither did she reply the text messages i nervously sent her.. I went to bed weak, down and hungry. Of course i never ate a single solid meal throughout that day.

Early the next day, i got a very surprising phone call from the last person i was expecting to hear from. The twin girl, {The last girl i had a little fling with towards the end of my youth service year}. Of course you all remember the relationship she had with Tessy??…

“hi Val, where are you?” she asked,

“i’m in my apartment” i answered with a low tone.

“you mean Owerri?” she asked,

“yea yea” i answered.

“so you have been in Owerri all these while but you failed to tell me?. Does it mean you have forgotten me so soon or what?” she asked with a sad tone. I lazily murmured some silly explanation that made no sense even to me.

“i’m coming over” she suddenly announced, surprising me with her words.

“no you can’t” i breathed,

“yes i’m” she insisted and hung up. I fell back on my bed and instantly reflected on many things. Many questions popped up in my mind that moment and i really had a hard time controlling my thoughts.
Of course the timing of the girl’s call was extremely suspicious, moreover i was yet to fully understand whose side she was on. Because at first she tried playing the good watchful sister game on me, later claimed to be working for Tessy and lastly claimed to be in love with me. Someone close to Tessy obviously gave us up to her ex husband. It was quite surprising how the man managed to find us so quickly in a new house Tessy just acquired.

“Or could it be Elinor?” i wondered with a doubt. Tessy never mentioned involving Elinor when the house was purchased, according to her, a friend in Owerri sent her pictures of the house and the house itself wasn’t built in an area traceable with street or house numbers. It was definitely an insider that brought the man and even though i already had lost all that made my life complete. I was still scared of the future.
I definitely knew that nothing would stop Tessy from losing custody of her children and when that happens there wasn’t any doubt she would try falling back on me with full strength.
The last thing i wanted was having her all around me with her love which only had brought nothing but problems to me. But losing her children could make her a very dangerous woman as well, who could do anything to have me all alone for herself, giving the unknown enemy a perfect opportunity to render the final blow.

Elinor? yes Elinor could be the person behind it all, but life has thought me that sometimes things are not always as they seem to be. It could be Elinor, It could be anyone. Perhaps the main target could be Tessy, perhaps me.. Who knows… Only time will tell…

EPISODE 20

Episode 20

I was still struggling with my thoughts when my phone rang once again and it was Tessy calling this time.
At first i felt like ignoring the call but later changed my mind and answered it.

“Val is it you?” she asked with a concerned tone,

“yes good morning” i answered.

“oh thank God, you can’t imagine how anxious and concerned i have been since yesterday. So tell me, what happened?, where did he take you?” she asked anxiously while i took my time in telling her all that happened to me. She listened silently and sighed when i was done with my narration.

“wicked man” she breathed,
“can you believe he took away my kids?” she poured out with a sad tone. I swallowed hard not knowing what to say.
Just like i expected, my fears concerning her future were slowing happening.

“he showed up at the house this morning with some government officials and the police. They just came in and took my kids as if they were little fowls. I’m finished. I just don’t know what to do” she cried over the phone, sobbing so deeply.
I ended up, keeping my own worries aside and calming her the best way i could. Just like i feared, she told me she will be coming down to Owerri in a couple of days to see me.

“we really do have a lot to talk Val” she said before hanging up.
__________

The twin girl showed up at exactly 11am, with lots of disturbing questions she asked me. I really was surprised to learn that she already was aware that Tessy wasn’t with her kids anymore and equally knew some details about the events of the previous day. Of course i asked her where she got all the information from, but not after telling her every bit of my story with Tessy, Adaora and my family. For the first time i sort of confided in her in a way i have never done before..

“you shouldn’t be surprised with all i know concerning the current situation. You already know my family has strong ties with Tessy” she kind of explained with a smile, holding my left hand…

“you know, no one will believe that you never slept with Tessy after spending the night with her but to be sincere i believe your mum is more angry and concerned that you passed the night with an older lady with kids and it’s not exactly about you engaging in s#xual pleasure with her. Your mum loves you and i can bet she’s down with grief right now. You are her only male child and you know what that means. Anyway i promise that i will help you get back her trust and do whatever necessary to make you happy, because i trust you and i believe you. Concerning about Adaora, I don’t think relationship with her can ever recover because the trust is no longer there. Give me a hug my dear” she said so sweetly, throwing herself on me.
I was so much taken aback with surprise and a new kind of feeling generated in my troubled heart…
