ANN
So what? you want to have the baby and marry Wemimo, is that it?

Who is talking about marrying Wemimo?
ANN
I am sure you already already thinking about it ever since the idiot volunteered to be the father of your bastard
EPISODE 65
Marry me
EXT. ORPHANAGE- EVENING
At the
orphanage she and Micheal used to go to together, Imade sits on pavement and
watching little boys play football on the field. She cheers the little boys up
with a clap and smile
The sister
from the other day walks to her, Imade stands up when she sees the sister
IMADE
Sister
NUN
Ahh! sit
down
They both sit
NUN
Are you
enjoying your stay here?
IMADE
It is
refreshing, I am happy I came here
The nun sighs
NUN
It been two
weeks since you have been here, have you thought about what you are going to do
about the baby?
IMADE
No
The nun sighs deeply
NUN
Have you
thought about open adoption?
IMADE
Open
adoption? What is that?
NUN
You give
your baby out to parent who will take good care of him or her and you also get
to stay in the baby’s life
Imade looks surprise
IMADE
You mean I
can see my baby anytime after giving him or her out for adoption
NUN
Yes
IMADE
I didn’t
know something like that exist
NUN
It does, I
will make sure I give your baby to parent who will give him or her the best
care and about Paris... I will do everything in my power to make sure you go next
year
Imade looks touched at what
the Sister said
IMADE
You will do
that for me
NUN
Yes, you
can still achieve your dream without killing your baby
IMADE
I will
think about what you just said
NUN
You should
think fast, you should have started receiving antenatal care by now
IMADE
Thank you, Sister
The sister stands up and
leaves as Imade continue to watch the little boys playing football
EXT. ORPHANAGE- AFTERNOON
Wemimo runs up the steps of
a tower and stops when he gets to the top where he sees Imade next to the stature of
Mary. He breaths in and out harshly
WEMIMO
So, this
was where you were?
IMADE
Yes
He walks to her looking
angry
WEMIMO
You have
been missing for three weeks, Imade and you were here the whole time?
IMADE
Yes
WEMIMO
Have been
calling your phone, all I get is switch off, do you know how worried I was? How
worried your mother is? What exactly is your problem?
IMADE
Maami was
worried?
WEMIMO
Of course
she is, no matter how great you sins are, you are still her daughter
IMADE
I needed to
think with a clear head
Wemimo relaxes
WEMIMO
Are you
okay?
IMADE
Yes I am
Wemimo
walks closer to her and stands next to her. They both look over the church,
the orphanage and the surrounding buildings
WEMIMO
So this is
your safe place?
IMADE
Yes and now
that I think of it, I fell in love with Micheal in this place… he was so good
with the kids
WEMIMO
What are you going to do about the
baby, Imade?
IMADE
Do you know
there is an open adoption?
WEMIMO
Yes
IMADE
I can give
the baby away and still be in the baby’s life
WEMIMO
Yes… that
was kind of my situation before my mother died. The only difference is that,
she gave me to my biological father
IMADE
I didn’t
know that
WEMIMO
There are a
lot of things you don’t know about me and we are not here to talk about me but
you…. if you called me here, you must have made a decision
IMADE
I am not
aborting this baby, I will hate myself if I do that
WEMIMO
Okay, so
what do you want to do with the baby after you give birth? Open adoption, which
is a good choice
Imade shook her head
IMADE
I am not
giving my baby out
Imade caresses her belly
IMADE
This is a
child created from the love of Micheal and I share, I am going to raise the child
myself
WEMIMO
Raising a
child as a single mother is going to be difficult especially for a student like
you but I promise to help you
Imade keeps
quiet for a few minutes before she faces Wemimo with tears in her eyes
IMADE
I can’t do
this alone, Wemimo
He gently cleans the tears that gushes down her eyes away with his hand
WEMIMO
Hey, you
are not going to be alone
She goes on her knees
WEMIMO
Imade!
He quickly raise her up
IMADE
Please
marry me and be the father of my child
Wemimo opens his mouth in surprise at this
WEMIMO
Imade!
IMADE
Just like
that?
WEMIMO
Yes, just
like that
IMADE
Even if I
can’t love you?
WEMIMO
Even if you
can’t love me?
IMADE
I am in
love with Micheal, Wemimo…and I am trying so hard not to think about him but I
am failing at it. So even if I can’t love you the way a wife is suppose to love
her husband, will you still marry me?
